ITEM 1. BUSINESS
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
History and Organization
The Company is a minerals investment, management, and exploration company, and currently conducting test mining and pilot milling operations through an operating subsidiary in México, with specific focus on precious and base metals in México. The Company was originally incorporated in the State of California on September 28, 1937, under the name West Coast Mines, Inc. In November 1998, the Company re-domiciled from California to Delaware and changed its name to DynaResource, Inc. (“DynaUSA”).
DynaUSA currently owns 80% of the outstanding shares of DynaMéxico, 79% owned directly and 1% hold by the current CEO on behalf of the Company compliance with Mexican law and DynaMéxico currently holds 20% of the shares of DynaMéxico as treasury shares after complete foreclosure and recovery of those share on February 20, 2020 from goldgroup Resources, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldgroup Mining Inc. Vancouver, BC (“Goldgroup”). DynaMéxico owns 100% of the mining concessions, equipment, camp and related facilities which comprise the San Jose de Gracía Property (“SJG”), in northern Sinaloa State, México. We also own 100% of Mineras de DynaResource S.A. de C.V. (“DynaMineras”). The Company also has another wholly owned subsidiary, DynaResource Operaciones, S.A. de C.V. (“DynaOperaciones”). The Company currently conducts test mining and pilot milling operations, and other exploration activities in México.
Segment Information
Our only current operating segment is gold mining and milling operation.
Products
The end use product produced at our test mining and pilot milling operations at SJG is in the form of gold-silver concentrates. Gold-silver concentrates, or simply concentrate, is raw precious metals materials that has been crushed and ground finely to a sand-like product where gangue (waste) and non-precious metals are removed or reduced, thus concentrating the precious metals component. Concentrates processed and produced from San Jose de Gracía are shipped to third-party smelters, refineries or third parties for further processing or re-sale.
During 2022, we reported the delivery and sale of 25,554 (subject to final settlements) net Oz gold-silver contained in concentrates. All gold-silver concentrate originated from the San Jose de Gracía Property in México. Gold-silver concentrates are sold at a small discount to the prevailing spot market price, based on the price per ounce of gold and silver quoted at the London PM fix, with the actual net precious metals prices received depending on the sales contract. Concentrates are priced by individual concentrate lots of 36 to 72 tons, or as a series of lots under contract, whereby the final selling price and gold-silver quantities are subject to final adjustments at the time of final purchase settlement.
Gold and Silver Pilot Processing Methods
Gold and silver are extracted from mined mineralized material, by crushing, grinding, milling, and further by simple gravity and flotation recoveries. The mineralized material is extracted by underground mining methods. The processing plant at the San José de Gracía mine is composed of conventional crushing and grinding circuits, and with gravity and flotation recovery methods. The gravity and flotation concentrates are dewatered and shipped to purchasers in semi-truck trailers.
Exploration Stage
The Company is an exploration stage issuer as defined in Section 1300 of Regulation S-K.
General Government Regulations
México
In Mexico, we are subject to various governmental laws and regulations, including environmental regulations. Other than operating licenses for our mining and processing facilities and concessions granted under contracts with the host government, there are no third-party patents, licenses or franchises material to our business. The applicable laws and regulations applicable to us include but are not limited to:
Mineral Concession Rights. Exploration and exploitation of minerals in México may be carried out through Mexican companies incorporated under Mexican law by means of obtaining mining concessions. Mining concessions are granted by the Mexican government for a period of fifty years from the date of their recording in the Public Registry of Mining and are renewable for a further period of fifty years upon application within five years prior to the expiration of such concession in accordance with the Mining Law and its regulations. Mining concessions are subject to annual work requirements and payment of annual surface taxes which are assessed and levied on a semi-annual basis. Such concessions may be transferred or assigned by their holders, but such transfers or assignments must be registered with the Public Registry of Mining in order to be valid against third parties. The holder of a concession must pay semi-annual duties in January and July of each year on a per hectare basis and in accordance with the amounts provided by the Federal Fees Law. During the month of May of each year, the concessionaire must file with the General Bureau of Mines, the work assessment reports made on each concession or group of concessions for the preceding calendar year. The regulations of the Mining Law provide tables containing the minimum investment amounts that must be made on a concession. This amount is updated annually in accordance with the changes in the Consumer Price Index.
Surface Rights.In México, while mineral rights are administered by the federal government through federally issued mining concessions, Ejidos(communal owners of land recognized by the federal laws in México) control surface access rights to the land. An Ejido may sell or lease lands directly to a private entity. While the Company has agreements or is in the process of negotiating agreements with the Ejido that impact all of its projects in México, some of these agreements may be subject to renegotiation.
Environmental Law.The Environmental Law in México, called the "General Law of Ecological Balance and Protection to the Environment" ("General Law"), provides for general environmental policies, with specific requirements for certain activities such as exploration set forth in regulations called "Mexican official norms". Responsibility for enforcement of the General Law, the regulations and the Mexican official norms is with the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources, which regulate all environmental matters with the assistance of Procuraduria Federal de Protección al Ambiente(known as "PROFEPA").
2020 Forestry Law.The 2020 Forestry Law provides for general policies for the use and protection of the surface, and for plants, soil and trees. The regulation of the Forestry Law is with the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources, with the assistance of PROFEPA.
Residues Law.The Residues Law, also known as Norm 141, provides for general policies for the deposit and storage of residue and waste. The regulation of the Residues Law is with the Ministry Of Environment and Natural Resources, with the assistance of PROFEPA.
The primary laws and regulations used by the State of Sinaloa, where our San Jose de Gracía property is located, in order to govern environmental protection for mining and exploration are: The General Law, the 2020 Forestry Law, Residues Law, as well as their specific regulations on air, water and residues, and the Mexican official norms (known as "NOM-120"). In order to comply with the environmental regulations, a concessionaire must obtain a series of permits during the exploitation and exploration stage. The time required to obtain the required permits is dependent on a few factors including the type of vegetation and trees impacted by proposed activities.
Mining Permits.The Secretariat of Environmental and Natural Resources, the Mexican Government environmental authority ("SEMARNAT"), is responsible for issuing environmental permits associated with mining. Three main permits required before construction can begin are: Environmental Impact Statement (known in México as Manifesto Impacto Ambiental) ("MIA"), Land Use Change (known in México as Estudio Justificativo Para Cambio Uso Sueldo) ("ETJ"), and Risk Analysis (known in México as Analisis de Riesgo) ("RA"). A construction permit is required from the local municipality and an archaeological release letter must be obtained from the National Institute of Anthropology and History (known as "INAH"). An explosives permit is required from the ministry of defense before construction can begin. The Environmental Impact Statement is required to be prepared by a third-party contractor and submitted to SEMARNAT and must include a detailed analysis of climate, air quality, water, soil, vegetation, wildlife, cultural resources and socio-economic impacts. The Risk Analysis study (which is included into the Environmental Impact Statement and submitted as one complete document) identifies potential environmental releases of hazardous substances and evaluates the risks in order to establish methods to prevent, respond to, and control environmental emergencies. The Land Use Change requires that an evaluation be made of the existing conditions of the land, including a plant and wildlife study, an evaluation of the current and proposed use of the land, impacts to naturally occurring resources, and an evaluation of reclamation/re-vegetation plans.
We believe that all of our properties are operated in compliance with all applicable governmental laws and regulations and the costs of compliance are paid for on an ongoing basis. Costs of compliance - due to the nature of our permit, we have requirements for landscape restoration which are fulfilled on an ongoing basis. We do not have an asset retirement obligation. We are working under a permit which required a Bond of approximately 120,000 pesos which was requested as a Forest Fund bond and does not require, other than the replanting of material, any reclamation work since we are mining underground.
Customers
The Company sells its concentrates to the buyer who offers the best terms based upon price, treatment costs, refining costs, and other terms of payment. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company sold gold-silver concentrates to one purchaser pursuant to a Revolving Credit Line Facility and Commercial Offtake Agreement (the “RCL”). As a result of the RCL, the Company’s financial well-being is heavily dependent on a single purchaser.
Distribution Methods
As gold and silver can be sold through numerous gold and silver market traders worldwide, the Company is not economically dependent on a limited number of customers for the sale of its product. In 2022, we sold to one buyer that gave us the best overall terms.
Products and Raw Materials
We have no new products. Gold concentrates is the only product we produce. Additionally, we have no major suppliers of raw materials as the ore we mine is the most important raw material we use. Supplementary supplies such as fuel and chemicals are in ready supply from a number of vendors.
Competitive Business Conditions
We compete with many companies in the mining and mineral exploration and production industry, including large, established mining companies with substantial capabilities, personnel, and financial resources. There is a limited supply of desirable mineral lands available for claim-staking, lease, or acquisition in the United States, Canada, Mexico, Argentina, and other areas where we may conduct our mining or exploration activities. We may be at a competitive disadvantage in acquiring mineral properties, since we compete with these individuals and companies, many of which have significantly greater financial resources and larger technical staffs than we do. From time to time, specific properties or areas that would otherwise be attractive to us for exploration or acquisition may be unavailable due to their previous acquisition by other companies or our lack of financial resources.
Competition in the industry is not limited to the acquisition of mineral properties, but also extends to the technical expertise to find, advance, and operate such properties; the labor to operate the properties; and the capital for the purpose of funding such exploration and development. Many competitors not only explore for and mine precious and base metals but conduct refining and marketing operations on a world-wide basis. Such competition may result in our company not only being unable to acquire desired properties, but to recruit or retain qualified employees or to acquire the capital necessary to fund our operation and advance our properties. Our inability to compete with other companies for these resources could have a material adverse effect on our results of operation, financial condition and cash flows.
Human Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2022, we had 200 employees in Mexico and 5 in the United States. All our employees based in the United States work in an executive, technical or administrative position, while our employees in Mexico include management, laborers, craftsmen, mining, geologist environmental specialists, information technologists, and various other support roles. We also frequently engage independent contractors in connection with certain administrative matters and the exploration of our properties, such as drillers, geophysicists, geologists, and other specialty technical disciplines. For the United States, we also engage independent contractors for technical and professional expertise. None of our employees in México are covered by union contracts and the Company believes we have good relations with our employees.
As part of our fundamental need to attract and retain talent, we regularly evaluate our compensation, benefits and employee wellness offerings. We have determined that our compensation arrangements are competitive in the industry.

The property on which the SJG Project resides, straddles the border separating the Mexican States of Sinaloa and Chihuahua. The SJG Project is located in the south-western portion of the property, and is located entirely within the State of Sinaloa (see Figure 1).
The property is without known reserves. The Company is an exploration stage company and the Company has started extraction without determining mineral reserves.
Figure 1. San Jose de Gracia, Location Map
DynaResource de Mexico S.A. de C.V. (“DynaMexico”), the Company’s 100% owned subsidiary, owns the San Jose de Gracia mineral concessions, which are comprised of 33 distinct concessions covering an aggregate of approximately 9,920 hectares. The concessions are held 100% by DynaMexico with no royalty or other interests clouding them.
By way of further reference, the property on which the SJG Project resides is located in and around the village of San Jose de Gracia, approximately 100 km northeast of Guamuchil, on the west side of Mexico. The village of San Jose de Gracia has a small airstrip and can be accessed by a small airplane, or alternatively, by a dirt mountain road. There are roads providing access to the property on which the SJG Project resides. These roads are accessible throughout the year, with the possible exception of June and July when the rainy season sometimes causes flooding and runoff to make the roads too muddy to navigate.
Local Resources and Infrastructure
Accommodations
The Village of San Jose de Gracia maintains few stores which offer only minimal goods. The camp site area maintains facilities of twelve rooms with additional lodging available in the
town which can accommodate a total of about 225 persons.
Power
A power line to the San José de Gracia Project has been installed by the Comisión Federal de Electricidad, the only authorized power producer in Mexico. The power line was installed in March 2012 from the La Estancia area of the municipality of Sinaloa de Leyva, a distance of approximately 75 kilometers.
The power line is currently 220 volts maximum capacity, which supports domestic use only, including the office and camp facilities at SJG, such as water pump, air conditioning, refrigeration, lights, internet, and fans, as well as local residential use. The SJG Project can produces its own diesel-generated power as a backup to the power grid.

Title to 32 of the 33 mining concessions is registered in the sole name of DynaMexico. The one exception is the San Miguel concession. For the San Miguel concession, DynaMexico has entered into transfer agreements with the registered owners of 50% of the concession title, and DynaMexico has also entered into promise to sell and purchase agreements with registered owners of the balance of the concession title. Under Mexican law, such agreements require the consent or relinquishment of first rights of refusal from the registered owners of 100% of the concession title, in order to have legal effect and be eligible for registration before the Mines Recorders’ Office.
Under amendments to the Mining Act of Mexico that came into effect in December 2006, the classifications of Mining Exploration Concessions and Mining Exploitation Concessions were replaced by a single classification of Mining Concessions valid for a renewable term of 50 years, commencing from the initial issuance date. To be converted into Mining Concessions at the time these amendments came into effect, former mining exploration and mining exploitation concessions had to be in good standing at the time of conversion.
All of the SJG concessions were in good standing and consequently were converted to 50-year Mining Concessions in December 2006, at the time the amendments to the Mining Act came into effect.
To renew the 50-year term, Mining Concessions must be in good standing at the time an application for renewal is filed, and an application for renewal must be filed within 5 years prior to expiration of the term.
To maintain Mining Concessions in good standing, the registered owner must (a) pay bi-annual mining duties in advance, by January 31 and July 31 each year, (b) file assessment work reports by May 30 each year, for the preceding year (some exceptions apply), and (c) by January 31 each year, file statistical reports on exploration / exploitation work conducted for the preceding year.
Notice of Commencement of Production Activities and Annual Production Reports must be filed annually by January 31 each year for those concessions where mineral ore extraction is taking place. As a general provision, registered owners of Mining Concessions must follow environmental and labor laws and regulations in order to maintain their Mining Concessions in good standing.

Surface Rights
In addition to the surface rights held by DynaMéxico pursuant to the Mining Act of México and its Regulations (Ley Minera y su Reglamento), the Company maintains access and surface rights for the SJG Project pursuant to a 20-year Land Lease Agreement. This lease agreement with the Santa Maria Ejido Community (the owners of the surface rights) is dated January 6s, 2014 and continues through 2033. The lease agreement covers an area of 4,399 hectares surrounding the main mineral resource areas of SJG and provides for annual lease payments of $1,359,443 Pesos (adjusted for inflation). The 2022 payment was $3,678,437 pesos (approx. $183,000 USD). Additionally, under the lease agreement, the Company met its obligation to construct a Medical Facility at SJG in year 2017.
The lease agreement provides the Company with surface access to the core resource areas of SJG (4,399 hectares), and allows for all permitted mining, pilot production and exploration activities.
Water Concession
The Company has secured the Water Rights Concession for the area surrounding SJG. The Director of Water Administration of the National Water Commission of México (CONAGUA) formally certified in writing the rights of DynaMéxico to legally “use”, exploit and extract 1,000,000 cubic meters of water per year from the DynaMéxico extraction infrastructure located within the perimeter of the mining concessions. CONAGUA determined that the DynaMéxico water rights are not subject to any water rights concession or any other water extraction restriction. Water extracted by DynaMéxico will be subject to applicable levies imposed by the Mexican tax authorities in accordance with current Mexican tax laws. The water concession provides sufficient water for current operations, and for the anticipated future needs of the project.
Royalties, Encumbrances and Environmental Liabilities
The SJG Property is not subject to any royalties, encumbrances or environmental liabilities.
Required Permits for Exploration, Drilling and Mining
In respect of permit requirements for mineral exploration and mining in Mexico, the most relevant applicable laws, regulations and official technical norms are the Federal Mining Act (plus its regulations), the Federal Environmental Protection and Ecological Equilibrium Act (plus its regulations), the Federal Sustainable Forestry Development Act (plus its regulations), the Federal Explosives and Firearms Act, the National Waters Act and the Mexican Official Norm 120.
To carry out mineral exploration activities, holders of mining concessions in Mexico are required to file at the offices of the Federal Secretariat of the Environment and Natural Resources (“SEMARNAT”) a “Notice of Commencement of Exploration Activities” or “Preventive Exploration Notice” in accordance with the guidelines of the Mexican Official Norm 120 (“NOM- 120”).
If contemplated mineral exploration activities fall outside of the guidelines of the NOM-120 (e.g. exploration activities on rain forest areas), a “Change of Soil Use Permit Application” (“CSUP”) is required to be filed at SEMARNAT under the guidelines of the Federal Sustainable Forestry Development Act and its Regulations. To meet the requirements for issuance of a change of soil use permit, the applicant must file (together with the CSUP) a Technical Study (“Technical Justification Study”) to justify the change of soil use from forestry to mining, in order to demonstrate that biodiversity will not be compromised and that there will be no soil erosion or water quality deterioration on completion of the mineral exploration activities.
To carry out mining activities in Mexico, holders of mining concessions are required to file an “Environmental Impact Assessment Study” under the guidelines of the Federal Environmental Protection and Ecological Equilibrium Act and its Regulations, in order to evaluate the environmental impact of the contemplated mining activities.
If the use of explosives materials is required for execution of mineral exploration or mining activities, an Application for General Permit for Use, Consumption and Storage of Explosive (“GPCSE”) is required to be filed at the offices of the Secretariat of National Defense (“SEDENA”) under the guidelines of the Federal Explosives and Firearms Act. Under the Federal Mining Act, holders of mining concessions in Mexico have the right to the use of the water coming from the mining works. Certification of water rights and/or issuance of water rights concessions are required from the National Water Commission (“CONAGUA”) under the guidelines of the National Waters Act.
Fees or bonding requirements necessary to explore or mine
As a pre-requisite for issuance of a CSUP, Article 118 of the Federal Sustainable Forestry Development Act provides the posting of a bond to the Mexican Forestry Fund for remediation, restoration and reforestation of the areas impacted by the mineral exploration activities.
As a pre-requisite for approval of Preventive Exploration Notice and Environmental Impact Assessment Study, the Federal Environmental Protection and Ecological Equilibrium Act and its Regulations require the posting of a bond to guarantee remediation and rehabilitation of the areas impacted by the mining activities.
Government agencies responsible for any applicable permits
SEMARNAT is the office of the Federal Government of Mexico responsible for the review and issuance of a CSUP, the review of a Technical Justification Study and the filing of NOM-
120. The Federal Attorney’s Office for the protection of the Environment is the enforcement branch of SEMARNAT responsible for the monitoring and enforcement of environmental laws and regulations. SEDENA is the office responsible for issuance of a GPCSE. CONAGUA is the office responsible for certification of water rights and issuance of water rights concessions.
Time frame to obtain any permit or approval to explore or mine
NOM-120 is a notice to SEMARNAT only and has no prescribed processing time. Processing time for review and approval of a CSUP Application and Technical Justification Study varies depending on the workload of the SEMARNAT regional office where application is filed, but a processing time of Four (4) months is typical.
Processing time for review and approval of a Environmental Impact Assessment Study varies depending on workload of SEMARNAT regional office where application is filed, but a processing time of Six (6) months is typical. Processing time for issuance of a GPCSE by SEDENA is approximately 6 months. Processing time for issuance of a Water Rights Concession by CONAGUA is approximately 6 months.
DynaMexico Permits and Bonding Requirements
Exploration Permit: On June 28, 2010, DynaMexico filed a Preventive Exploration Notice (Preventive Exploration Notice) at the office of SEMARNAT in connection with contemplated mineral exploration activities at the La Prieta, San Pablo, La Purísima, La Unión, Tres Amigos and La Ceceña areas of the SJG Project. On July 21, 2010, SEMARNAT approved, for a term of 36 months, the execution of the mineral exploration activities at SJG set out in the Preventive Exploration Notice, as it determined that such activities fall within the framework of the NOM-120, subject to the following conditions: (a) filing and approval by SEMARNAT of a CSUP with respect to SJG (see below), and (b) posting of a bond in the amount of $134,487 Pesos to guarantee remediation and rehabilitation measures following the conclusion of the mineral exploration activities.
Change of Soil Use Permit
On August 9, 2010, DynaMexico filed at the offices of SEMARNAT a CSUP Application and Technical Justification Study to carry out certain mineral exploration activities set out in the Preventive Exploration Notice approved by SEMARNAT on July 21, 2010 (see above) at the La Prieta, San Pablo, La Purísima, La Unión, Tres Amigos and La Ceceña areas of SJG). On December 20, 2010, SEMARNAT approved the CSUP Application filed by DynaMexico with respect to SJG and authorized DynaMexico the execution of mineral exploration activities on
5.463 hectares of SJG for a term of 36 months, and it is continually renewed as required.
Water Rights Certification
On March 8, 2012 the Director of Water Administration of CONAGUA certified in writing the rights of DynaMexico to use, exploit and extract 1,000,000 m3 of water per year from the Company’s extraction infrastructure located in SJG. CONAGUA determined that DynaMexico’s water rights are not subject to any other water rights concession or any other water extraction restriction.
Bonding Requirements
Under the CSUP issued to DynaMexico on December 20, 2010, SEMARNAT imposed upon DynaMexico the obligation to post a bond in the amount of $116,911 Pesos for reforestation and remediation measures in SJG. The Bond was timely posted by DynaMexico.
Under Preventive Exploration Notice (Preventive Exploration Notice) approved by SEMARNAT on July 21, 2010, SEMARNAT imposed upon DynaMexico the obligation to post a bond in the amount of $134,487 Pesos, to guarantee remediation and rehabilitation measures following the conclusion of the mineral exploration activities. The Bond was timely posted by DynaMexico.
DynaMexico has sought and obtained all required environmental permits, temporary land occupation rights and consent letters from the regulatory agencies, local municipalities and the State of Sinaloa, in order to conduct its mining, production, exploration and drilling activities on the four main deposit areas at SJG. DynaMexico will be required to obtain further permits in order to conduct drilling in these four areas and the other areas, and in order to carry out future mining, milling, and production activities, and will timely obtain such permits, as and when required.

Production at San José de Gracia dates from the 1800’s and totals approximately one million ounces of gold mined from high-grade quartz veins. Large-scale mining in the camp began in 1870 and ended in 1910 with the onset of the Mexican Revolution. The majority of the production came from the Anglo, Rosario and La Cruz Mines on the Purisima Ridge trend, and from the La Prieta Mine on the La Prieta trend (reference Fig. 2). The remainder of the production was derived from as many as 60 smaller mines throughout the 12 square kilometer area, including the Palos Chinos, San Pablo, Tres Amigos, La Ceceña, Los Hilos, Santa Rosa, Veta Tierra, La Union, Santa Eduwiges, Mochemara and La Parilla Mines.

It was not until the 1970’s when mining could resume at San José de Gracia, when the first road to SJG was opened, allowing Compaňia Rosarito to begin producing gold from the Palos Chinos, San Pablo, Tres Amigos and La Union mines.
Recent Ownership of the Property
By 1977 the underlying owners of the mining concessions and subsequent vendors to Minera Finisterre SA de CV. (“Finesterre”) succeeded in acquiring control of most of the district, and installed a 70 ton per day flotation concentrator. Finisterre subsequently acquired the property through option agreements with the underlying vendors and continued some exploration work, although most of its financial resources were expended in erecting a larger, 200 ton per day concentrator.
Golden Hemlock Explorations Ltd., a Canadian company, obtained an option to acquire majority control of Finisterre and commenced work on the property in 1997. The actual exploration and development work was performed by Perforaciónes Quest de Mexico (“PQM”), which was under contract to Finesterre, and whose efforts consisted primarily of core drilling, trenching and mapping. PQM completed a 63-hole, 6,000-meter core drilling program in 1997.
In 1998-1999, Pamicon Developments Ltd., a Canadian company, examined the results of the 1997 drilling program, including PQM’s technical work, in order to calculate possible mineral reserves, and to review the general status of the property. Results of this examination were presented in a report dated September 1999.
During the first half of 1999, DynaResource, Inc. and its agents arranged to collect samples for metallurgical testing. In June of 2000, DynaResource formed its subsidiary DynaMexico, in order to acquire and consolidate ownership of the San Jose de Gracia Project. By December 2003, DynaMexico had completed the acquisition of and consolidation of 100% of the San Jose de Gracia Project from Golden Hemlock and Finisterre -- with the sole exception of the San Miguel mining concession.
Test Mining Operations
The property is without known reserves and the test mining program is exploratory in nature and the Company has started extraction without determining mineral reserves. All mines are underground and the ore is hard rock that needs to be crushed and ground before gold concentrate can be extracted.
The Company is an exploration stage company and has a test mining facility and produces precious metal concentrates for sale to third parties.

Test pilot operations in 2022 yielded 137,740 Tonnes of material, mined and processed from underground test mining activity and pilot milling operations. These test pilot operations also yielded approximately 31,905 gross ounces of gold, and net of dry weight adjustments at the buyer’s facilities, the approximately 25,554 ounces of gold.
Infrastructure Improvements, Expansion and Increased Output (2017 To 2022)
The Registrant is an exploration stage company and the registrant has started extraction without determining mineral reserves.
As part of the Company’s test mining operations, it continues to upgrade the camp facilities and the mill. Significant improvements have been made such that the condition of the equipment is new, relatively new or in good condition. The Company has developed a total of five mills of which three are currently running which can process approximately 700 tons of mined material per day. The Companies two oldest Mills were taken offline in 2022 as the two newest ball mills were brought on line and the old mills will be refitted.
The Company continues its exploration at San Jose de Gracía, in order to increase production of gold ounces. Since January 2015 startup of the test mining and milling activities, the Company has increased daily output from an initial 75 tons per 24-hour operating day, to a current 700 tons per 24-hour operating day.
Since January 2017, the Company has expended funds to improve the mine, the mill and the facilities in order to increase the production at San Jose de Gracia.as follows:

The Company is currently in the middle of exploration drilling to further define mineralization and in 2022 expended $2,484,072 for this drilling.
The Company is currently an exploration stage issuer and is reporting all costs of mine operations, improvements, and expansion as expenses in accordance with section 1300 of Regulation S-K and United States General Accepted Accounting Principal (GAAP) requirements, and therefore the above costs are not reflected as capitalized expenses (assets) on the Company’s balance sheet.
ACCESSIBILITY, CLIMATE, LOCAL RESOURCES, INFRASTRUCTURE AND PHYSIOGRAPHY
Topography, Physiography, and Vegetation
The topography of the San José de Gracia district is generally rugged with elevations varying from 400 meters in the valley bottoms to over 1600 meters in the higher Sierra. A network of small roads and tracks winds around areas nearer the old workings at San José de Gracia. Access to the remainder of the large property at the current stage of development is difficult without the use of horse or helicopter.
The SJG Project can be accessed by road, from either the City of Culiacan or the City of Guamuchil. Either route goes through the small town of Sinaloa de Leyva, then from Sinaloa de Leyva by gravel mountainous road to the village of San José de Gracia (population 250), which covers approximately 90 kilometers and is roughly a five hour trip.
The SJG Project can also be accessed by air. A gravel airstrip is located adjacent to the San Jose de Gracia Village. The airstrip is suitable for light aircraft and charter flights of 45 minutes duration are available from the cities of Los Mochis or Culiacan. Much of the labor for the recent mining and production activities of DynaMexico was provided by the village residents. Although the village provided approximately 75 employees to DynaMexico, it currently has limited services.
Climate and Operating Season
The climate is semi-tropical with a rainy season dominating from late June / early July through September. For some activities on the SDJ project, operations may be suspended during the rainy season.
MINERAL PROCESSING AND METALLURGICAL TESTING
Bulk Sample, Hazen Process Development Metallurgical Report
Ore and existing mill tailings samples were collected prior to DynaMexico’s acquisition and consolidation of San Jose de Gracia. The ore samples consisted of a bulk (about 500 kg) of stockpiled ore from the lower adit of the Tres Amigos mine (intercept of the Tres Amigos and Orange Tree veins). In addition, approximately 100 kg of ore as a bulk sample was taken from the surface at the Gossan Cap area. Three additional ore samples (approximately 5-15 kg each) were assembled from splits of the cores from several of the 1997 drilling program core holes to develop samples representing different ore types for testing. These included: 1) composite drill cores from Palos Chinos, 2) massive sulfide from the Tres Amigos vein and 3) disseminated, nonsurprise mineralized zones at the bottom of several Tres Amigos core holes. The logic was that major exploratory test work to define a metallurgical process would be done on the bulk sample from the adit at Tres Amigos and the other samples would have limited testing done at the selected metallurgical process conditions to verify the performance of the selected metallurgical process circuit on other types of San José mineralization. Finally, several bulk samples (50-100 kg) of existing tailings from the Rosarito mill and the old Rosarito mill were collected and used to conduct flotation, gravity, and limited leachability test work on the tailings.” Samples were shipped to the laboratory of Carbonyx Carbon Technologies in Plano, Texas where in 2000 and 2001 two separate preliminary test programs were conducted, one for the tailings, and the other for a portion of the bulk Tres Amigos ore.The Company developed a concept for the metallurgical processing to produce both gravity and flotation concentrates (rougher and cleaner). The tests confirmed a metallurgical flow sheet to be utilized at San José to recover up to 90% of the feed gold into the concentrates. The above “in-house” testing established a preliminary flowsheet for a mill circuit for processing either primary ore or for reprocessing the existing tailings. Subsequently Hazen Research Laboratories of Golden, Colorado (“Hazen”) was engaged to provide independent verification of the in-house work and carry out additional optimization test work. Lockwood Greene/ Mr. Henderson prepared and verified completion of the scope of work.
In summary, various interim reports and the final metallurgical report, the "Official Hazen Test Report, (“Hazen Report”)” provided results as follows:
(a)
The initial gravity beneficiation/flotation test work on the Tres Amigos and Gossan Cap bulk ore samples were very encouraging with up to 80 % recovery of the feed gold into the gravity concentrates while maintaining a minimum concentrate grade of 100 g Au/t ;
(b)
The existing tailings samples (feed grades of 3 -8 g Au/t) returned similar recovery results, but had to be cleaned to produce a final concentrate with > 100 g Au/t ;
(c)
The overall gold recoveries into the gravity cleaner concentrate still were in excess of 50% of the total feed gold;
(d)
Flotation tests on primary ore samples resulted in recoveries of 85 - 90 % of the feed gold into the rougher concentrates, however, recoveries after cleaning (to get > 100 g Au/t grade) dropped to the 65-75 % range; and
A combination circuit of a gravity pre-concentration stage with flotation on the gravity tailings indicated the potential to recover > 90% of the feed gold into the gravity concentrate, the rougher flotation and the cleaner flotation concentrates while maintaining a 100 g Au/t grade in all of the concentrates.
EXPLORATION UPDATE
DynaResource uses a multiple phase method of exploration. The initial activity consists of surface mapping and sampling to identify areas of interest. The next phase is detailed mapping and systematic sampling. Mapping and sampling of mine workings are also performed to define potential areas for future work. Geological mapping and samples have been collected in the past and sent for laboratory analysis by the Company. The prospects are then catalogued and prioritized for drilling. Since January 2022, six (6) areas have been drill-tested. They are: Tres Amigos, La Union, San Pablo, Tepehuaje, La Ceceña and Palos Chinos. In 2022, 166 holes for approximately 24,500 m of diamond drilling was completed and approximately 16,000 core samples were collected of which approximately 500 QA/QC samples were shipped for laboratory analysis.
EXPLORATION PLANS FOR 2023
The Company plans to continue its drilling program with two to six rigs on site. During this period management will make decisions based on the drill results, corporate strategies and market conditions, surface mapping, sampling and target generation. These activities will continue until any increase is approved by the Board of Directors. The Company plans to contract with a consultant to interpret the data collected for a formal Mineral Resource update in the latter part of 2023 or early 2024.
TECHNICAL DISCLOSURE
All technical disclosures and resource estimate covering the Company's mineral property was prepared under the supervision of Mr. Francisco M Carranza Sr, CPG-11933, Consulting Geologist for the Company and a "Qualified Person" within the meaning of subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K.
The following resource information at Tres Amigos and San Pablo were classified as indicated as follows: block they are within 25 m of the nearest sample point and the block was estimated by at least 2 drill holes to be considered the indicated category. The remaining blocks that were interpolated are classified as inferred, La Purisima inferred estimate is provided by DynaResource de Mexico SA de CV. However, for the purpose to elaborate for an official technical report with all the data process and verifications it is essential to validate the QA/QC protocols, field verification of drill sites, drill core, specific gravity procedures, rejects and pulps storage for re-assays if it is required.
The following table summarizes the estimated bulk tonnage resource at San Jose de Gracia after the drilling results in 2022:

REVENUE: Revenues for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 were $39,767,460 and $35,886,046, respectively. The increase was the result of the increase in tonnage mined and processed as a result of expansion of the Tres Amigos mine in 2022 and the increase in milling capacity to 700 tons per day in the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase in tonnage resulted in a slight drop in yield from 9.67 g/t Au in 2021 to 8.18 g/t Au in 2022. Volume processed however increased from 266 tons per 24hr day in 2021 to 377 tons per day in 2022. During 2022 Volume increased from 308 tons per day in the 1st quarter to 493 tons per day in the 4th quarter. The Company anticipates running an average of 600 to 700 tons per day in 2023.
PRODUCTION COSTS RELATED TO SALES: Production costs related to sales for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 were $4,413,649 and $2,909,401, respectively. These are expenses directly related to the milling, packaging and shipping of gold and other precious metals product. This represents an increase in the cost per ounce recovered of milling from
$109 per OZ to $138 per OZ. The increase was largely due to cost of bringing the new ball mills online and is expected to drop in 2023.
MINE PRODUCTION COSTS: Mine production costs for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 were $6,500,974 and $3,965,467 respectively. These costs were directly related to the extraction of mine tonnage to be processed at the mill. The increase was a result of the increase in tonnage mined. Cost per ton rose from $45.57 per ton in 2021 to $47.98 per ton in 2022.
MINE EXPLORATION COSTS: Mine exploration costs for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 were $5,707,832 and $5,198,057, respectively. These were the costs of extracting waste material to reach the materials to be extracted for processing. The increase was a result of the increase in volume. However, the percentage of waste tonnage dropped from 49.2% of total tonnage mined in 2021 to 45.6% in 2022.
FACILITIES EXPANSION COSTS: Facilities expansion costs for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 were $6,058,588 and $1,478,725, respectively. These were the costs associated with the expansion of the mining facilities. Primary costs in 2022 were the purchase and installation of the two new ball mills and the construction of a new tailings pond. These are cost which would normally have been treated as capital expenditures under U.S. GAAP but the Company is required to expense because of the lack of proven and probable reserves.
EXPLORATION DRILLING: Exploration drilling expenses for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were $2,484,072 and $0, respectively. The Company began a new drilling program in 2022 to update its National Instrument 43-101 reserve report.
TRANSPORTATION: Transportation costs for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 were $2,261,681 and $1,330,414, respectively. These were the costs of transporting the product to the customer for treatment and sale. The increase was a result with the overall increase in production and sales and the general increase in fuel and trucking costs.
CAMP, WAREHOUSE AND FACILITIES: Camp, warehouse and facility cost for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 were $4,403,660 and $2,913,832, respectively. These were the support costs of the mining facilities including housing, food, security and warehouse operations. The increase was a result of the increase in personnel from the increase in operations.
PROPERTY HOLDING COSTS: Property holding costs for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 were $149,571 and $127,731, respectively. These costs were concessions taxes, leases on land and other direct costs of maintaining the property. The current costs consist only of core concessions and the reduced area of the Francisco Arturo concession.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES: General and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 were $4,134,902 and $3,738,250 respectively. These were the costs of operating the Company not directly associated with the mine operations including management, accounting, and legal expenses.
STOCK COMPENSATION EXPENSE: Stock compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 was $881,250 and $1,005,223, respectively.
OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE): Other income (expense) for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 was $1,336,841 and $(4,622,364), respectively. Included in this category in 2022 was interest expense of $(450,324), change in derivative liability of $1,726,497, currency transaction gain of $58,426, and other income of $2,242.

The decrease in derivative liability is the result of two of the derivatives expiring due to the maturity of the underlying securities. See Item See Legal Proceedings for discussion of the arbitration award payment.
OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS): Comprehensive income (loss) includes the Company’s net income (loss) plus the unrealized currency translation gain (loss) for the period. The Company’s other comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 consisted of unrealized currency gains (losses) of $359,743 and $(685,757), respectively. The current year change is due to the variances in the peso exchange rates throughout the two years.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2022, the Company had working capital of $11,789,578, comprised of current assets of $33,123,955 and current liabilities of $21,334,377. This represented an increase of$10,661,867 from the working capital maintained by the Company of $1,347,711 as of December 31, 2021. The primary reason for the increase is the cash, inventory and receivables from the Company’s operating profit and from funds raised by the issuance of common stock.
Net cash provided by (used in) operations for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $(1,781,225) compared to $17,516,205 in the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease is largely due to the drop in net income and the increase in exploration activities and an increase in working capital.
Net cash provided by (used) in investing activities for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 was $0 and $0, respectively. In 2022 and 2021, expenditures necessary for the expansion of mining operations totaling $6,058,588 and $1,478,725 respectively which would normally have been included in this category were expensed due to the Company’s lack of proven and probable reserves.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2022, was $4,778,958 compared to $(2,557,721) for the year ended December 31, 2021. The 2022 funds are the result of the issuance of common stock due to the exercise of stock warrants. The 2021 usage was for the retirement of Series D debt.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2022, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, which have or are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
Plan of Operation
The Plan of operation for the next twelve months includes the Company continuing the improvement and expansion of the test mining and pilot milling operations at SJG. The Company commenced its testing activities in fall 2015 at the rate of approximately 100 tons per 24-hour operating day from the mine and approximately the same output from the processing plant. Over the past seven years, the Company has gradually increased its output to approximately 300 tons per 24-hour operating day from the mines and processing plant. In 2023, the Company projects to complete its next phase of expansion to reach the output of approximately 700 tons per 24-hour operating day from the mine and the processing plant.
The Company funds its general and administrative expenses in the U.S. from its Mexican operations. The Company believes that cash on hand, and including cash flow generated from its current operations, is adequate to fund its ongoing general and administrative expenses through 2023.
Capital Expenditures
The Company’s primary activities relate to the test mining and pilot milling operations of the SJG property through its Mexican subsidiaries.
Exploration Stage
The Company is an exploration stage issuer has started extraction without determining mineral reserves.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of DynaResource, Inc. (the "Company") and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (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 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audit. 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 audit 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 consolidated 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 audit 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 audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Derivative Liabilities
As described in Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements, the derivative liabilities represent the embedded conversion features of the Series D Warrants. The Company has classified the derivative liabilities as Level 3 liabilities and the fair value of the liabilities are evaluated each reporting period. As of December 31, 2022, the derivative liabilities were $2,172,417. The derivative liabilities include both quantitative and qualitative components. The calculation of the fair value of the derivative liabilities used a Black-Scholes pricing model. Key components of the fair value calculation included: the annual volatility rate, the risk-free rate, the remaining term, and the fair value of the underlying common stock.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the fair value of the derivative liabilities is a critical audit matter is: there was significant judgment and estimation used by management in determining the fair value of the derivative liabilities, which led to an increased level of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and in evaluating audit evidence obtained relating to the derivative liabilities, including the qualitative component.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included documenting the control environment in which judgements were made. These procedures also included, testing the reasonableness of the assumptions management used in the Black-Scholes pricing model, recalculating the change in fair value, and performing a stress-test on the assumptions.

DYNARESOURCE, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2022 and 2021
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Activities, History and Organization
DynaResource, Inc. (The “Company”, “DynaResource”, or “DynaUSA”) was organized September 28, 1937, as a California corporation under the name of West Coast Mines, Inc. In 1998, the Company re-domiciled to Delaware and changed its name to DynaResource, Inc. The Company is in the business of acquiring, investing in, and developing precious metal properties, and the production of precious metals.
In 2000, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, DynaResource de México S.A. de C.V., chartered in México (“DynaMéxico”). This Company was formed to acquire, invest in and develop resource properties in México. DynaMéxico owns a portfolio of mining concessions that currently includes its interests in the San José de Gracía Project (“SJG”) in northern Sinaloa State, México. The SJG District covers 9,920 hectares (24,513 acres) on the west side of the Sierra Madre mountain range. DynaUSA currently owns 80% of the outstanding capital of DynaMéxico, 79% directly and 1% held by the current CEO on behalf of the Company, in compliance with Mexican law. DynaMéxico currently holds 20% of the Shares of DynaMéxico as treasury shares, after complete foreclosure and recovery of those shares on February 20, 2020 from Goldgroup Resources Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Goldgroup Mining Inc. Vancouver, BC (“Goldgroup”).
In 2005, the Company formed DynaResource Operaciones de San Jose De Gracía S.A. de C.V. (“DynaOperaciones”) as an operating subsidiary to manage registered employees, and acquired effective control of Mineras de DynaResource, S.A. de C.V. (formerly Minera Finesterre S.A. de C.V., “DynaMineras”). In 2020 the Company moved its registered employees from DynaOperaciones to DynaMexico in compliance with changes in Mexican employment law. The Company owns 100% of DynaMineras and 100% of DynaOperaciones.
The Company elected to become a voluntary reporting issuer in Canada in order to avail itself of Canadian regulations regarding reporting for mining properties and, more specifically, National Instrument 43-101 (“NI 43-101”). This regulation sets forth standards for reporting resources in a mineral property and is a standard recognized in the mining industry.
Reclassifications and Adjustments
Certain financial statement reclassifications have been made to prior period balances to reflect the current period’s presentation format, such reclassifications had no impact on the Company’s consolidated statements of income or consolidated statements of cash flows and had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Significant Accounting Policies
The consolidated financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company's system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items that: 1) recorded transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce consolidated financial statements which present fairly the consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods presented.
Basis of Presentation
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Use of Estimates
In order to prepare consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management must make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and determines whether contingent assets and liabilities, if any, are disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. The ultimate resolution of issues requiring these estimates and assumptions could differ significantly from the resolution currently anticipated by management and on which the consolidated financial statements are based.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DynaResource, Inc., as well as DynaResource de México, S.A. de C.V., DynaResource Operaciones S.A. de C.V. and Mineras de DynaResource S.A. de C.V. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated. All amounts are presented in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise stated.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At times, cash balances may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $ 18,375,699 of deposits in U.S. Banks in excess of the FDIC limit. The Company does not believe it is at a risk of loss on cash.
Accounts Receivable and Allowances for Doubtful Accounts
The allowance for accounts receivable is recorded when receivables are considered to be doubtful of collection. As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively, no allowance has been made. During the year ended December 31, 2021 the Company recorded a $381,871 bad debt write off of receivables from a former customer of the Company. At, December 31, 2022 management believes all accounts receivable are fully collectable.
Inventories
Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value and consist of mined tonnage, gravity and flotation concentrates, and gravity tailings or flotation feed material. The inventories were $2,720,811 and $2,110,203 as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Foreign Tax Receivable
Foreign Tax Receivable is comprised of recoverable value-added taxes (“IVA”) charged by the Mexican government on goods and services rendered to the company in Mexico and paid by the company. Under certain circumstances, these taxes are recoverable by filing a tax return and application for reimbursement. IVA amounts charged to and paid by the company are recorded and carried as receivables until the funds are collected by the company. The total amounts of the IVA receivable as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were
$9,355,863 and $4,742,180, respectively. In 2022, the Company recovered $403,308 of the IVA receivable.
Exploration Stage
According to Section 1300 of Regulation S-K, the Registrant is an exploration stage issuer with an exploration stage property since it does not have proven and probable reserves as defined in Section 1300 and does not have a preliminary or final feasibility study.
Property and Equipment
Substantially all mine development costs, including design, engineering, mine construction, and installation of equipment are expensed as incurred as the Company has not established proven and probable reserves on any of its properties. Only certain types of mining equipment which has alternative uses or significant salvage value, may be capitalized without proven and probable reserves. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Office furniture and equipment are being depreciated on a straight-line method over estimated economic lives ranging from 3 to 5 years. Leasehold improvements, which relate to the Company's corporate office, are being amortized over the term of the lease of 10 years.
Design, Construction, and Development Costs: Mine development costs include engineering and metallurgical studies, drilling and other related costs to delineate an ore body, the removal of overburden to initially expose an ore body at open pit surface mines and the building of access ways, shafts, lateral access, drifts, ramps and other infrastructure at underground mines.
Mineral Properties Interests
Mineral property interests include acquired interests in development and exploration stage properties, which are considered tangible assets. The amount capitalized relating to a mineral property interest represents its fair value at the time of acquisition. When a property does not contain mineralized material that satisfies the definition of proven and probable reserves, such as with the San Jose de Gracía Property, capitalized costs and mineral property interests are amortized using the straight-line method once proven and probable reserves are extracted. As of December 31, 2022, the mining interests have been in the pilot production stage and therefore, no amortization has been expensed. Mining properties consist of 33 mining concessions covering approximately 9,920 hectares at the San Jose de Gracía property (“SJG”), the basis of which will be amotized once proven and probable reserves are extracted on the unit of production method based on estimated recoverable resources. If it is determined that the deferred costs related to a property are not recoverable over its productive life, those costs will be written down to fair value as a charge to operations in the period in which the determination is made. The amounts at which mineral properties and the related costs are recorded do not necessarily reflect present or future values.
Impairment of Assets: The Company reviews and evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Mineral properties are monitored for impairment based on factors such as mineral prices, government regulation and taxation, the Company's continued right to explore the area, exploration reports, assays, technical reports, drill results and its continued plans to fund exploration programs on the property.
For operating mines, recoverability is measured by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows to the net book value. When the net book value exceeds future net undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is measured and recorded based on the excess of the net book value over fair value. Fair value for operating mines is determined using a combined approach, which uses a discounted cash flow model for the existing operations and a market approach for the fair value assessment of exploration land claims. Future cash flows are estimated based on quantities of recoverable mineralized material, expected gold and silver prices (considering current and historical prices, trends and related factors), production levels, operating costs, capital requirements and reclamation costs, all based on life-of-mine plans. The term "recoverable mineralized material" refers to the estimated amount of gold or other commodities that will be obtained after considering losses during processing and treatment of mineralized material. In estimating future cash flows, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of future cash flows from other asset groups. The Company's estimates of future cash flows are based on numerous assumptions and it is possible that actual future cash flows will be significantly different than the estimates, as actual future quantities of recoverable minerals, gold, silver and other commodity prices, production levels and costs and capital are each subject to significant risks and uncertainties.
The recoverability of the book value of each property is assessed annually for indicators of impairment such as adverse changes to any of the following:
·
estimated recoverable ounces of gold, silver or other precious minerals;
·
estimated future commodity prices;
·
estimated expected future operating costs, capital expenditures and reclamation expenditures.
A write-down to fair value will be recorded when the expected future cash flow is less than the net book value of the property or when events or changes in the property indicate that carrying amounts are not recoverable. This analysis is completed as needed, and at least annually. As of the date of this filing, no events have occurred that would require write-down of any assets. As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, no indications of impairment existed.
Asset Retirement Obligation
As the Company is not obligated to remediate the mining properties, no Asset Retirement Obligation (“ARO”) has been established. Changes in regulations or laws, any instances of non-compliance with laws or regulations that result in fines, or any unforeseen environmental contamination could result in a material impact to the amounts charged to operations for reclamation and remediation.
Transactions in and Translations of Foreign Currency
The functional currency for the subsidiaries of the Company is the Mexican Peso. As a result, the financial statements of the subsidiaries have been translated from Mexican Pesos into
U.S. dollars using (i) year-end exchange rates for balance sheet accounts, and (ii) the weighted average exchange rate of the reporting period for all income statement accounts. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss).
The financial statements of the subsidiaries should not be construed as representations that Mexican Pesos have been, could have been or may in the future be converted into U.S. dollars at such rates or any other rates.
Relevant exchange rates used in the preparation of the financial statements for the subsidiaries are as follows for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 (Mexican Pesos per one U.S. dollar):
Dec 31, 2022
Dec 31, 2021
Current exchange rate
Pesos
19.48
20.48
Weighted average exchange rate for the period ended

20.29
The Company recorded currency transaction gains (losses) of $58,426 for the year ended December 31, 2022 and $247,712 for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 “Income Taxes” using the liability method, recognizing certain temporary differences between the financial reporting basis of liabilities and assets and the related income tax basis for such liabilities and assets. This method generates either a net deferred income tax liability or asset for the Company, as measured by the statutory tax rates in effect. The Company derives the deferred income tax charge or benefit by recording the change in either the net deferred income tax liability or asset balance for the year. The Company records a valuation allowance against any portion of those deferred income tax assets when it believes, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax asset will not be realized. Income from the Company’s subsidiaries in México are taxed in accordance with applicable Mexican tax law.
Uncertain Tax Position
The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and other foreign jurisdictions, with respect to which some of the outcome is uncertain. The evaluation of the Company’s uncertain tax positions involves significant judgment in the interpretation and application of GAAP and complex domestic and international tax laws. We establish reserves to remove some or all of the tax benefit of any of our tax positions at the time we determine that it becomes uncertain based upon one of the following conditions: (1) the tax position is not "more likely than not" to be sustained, (2) the tax position is "more likely than not" to be sustained, but for a lesser amount, or (3) the tax position is "more likely than not" to be sustained, but not in the financial period in which the tax position was originally taken. For purposes of evaluating whether or not a tax position is uncertain, (1) we presume the tax position will be examined by the relevant taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information; (2) the technical merits of a tax position are derived from authorities such as legislation and statutes, legislative intent, regulations, rulings and case law and their applicability to the facts and circumstances of the tax position; and (3) each tax position is evaluated without consideration of the possibility of offset or aggregation with other tax positions taken. Although management believes the Company’s reserves are reasonable, no assurance can be given that the final outcome of these uncertainties will not be different from that which is reflected in the Company’s reserves. A number of years may elapse before a particular uncertain tax position is audited and finally resolved or when a tax assessment is raised. The number of years subject to tax assessments varies depending on the tax jurisdiction. Any tax benefit that is or has been reserved because of a failure to meet the "more likely than not" recognition threshold would be recognized in income tax expense in the first interim period when the uncertainty disappears under any one of the following conditions: (1) the tax position is "more likely than not" to be sustained, (2) the tax position, amount, and/or timing is ultimately settled through negotiation or litigation, or (3) the statute of limitations for the tax position has expired. Refer to Note 6.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
ASC 220 “Comprehensive Income” establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose consolidated financial statements. The Company’s comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income (loss), consisting of unrealized net gains and losses on the translation of the assets and liabilities of its foreign operations.
Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for revenue recognition under ASC 606 “ Revenue from contracts with customers”. The Company generates revenue by selling gold and silver mineral concentrate from its mining operations. The Company recognizes revenue for gold and silver concentrate production, net of treatment and refining costs, when it satisfies the performance obligation of transferring control of the concentrate to the customer. This is generally when the material is delivered to the customer facility for treatment and processing as the customer has the ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all the remaining benefits from the material and the customer has the risk of loss.
The amount of revenue recognized is initially recorded on a provisional basis based on the contract price and the estimated metal quantities based on assay data. The revenue is adjusted upon final settlement of the sale. The chief risk associated with the recognition of sales on a provisional basis is the fluctuations between the estimated quantities of precious metals based on the initial assay and the actual recovery from treatment and processing.
As of December 31, 2022, there are $9,350,000 in customer advances for payments received during the period for contracts expected to be settled in 2023.
During the years ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, there was $9,250,000 and $1,500,000 of revenue recognized during the period from customer deposit liabilities (deferred contract revenue) from prior periods, and $0 of customer deposits refunded to the customer due to order cancellation.
As of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, there are no deferred contract costs or commissions.
We have elected to account for shipping and handling costs as fulfillment costs after the customer obtains control of the concentrate.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, receivables, payables and installment notes payable. The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these items. The carrying amount of installment notes payable debt approximates fair value due to the relationship between the interest rate on installment notes payable debt and the Company’s incremental risk adjusted borrowing rate.
Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share are calculated in accordance with ASC 260 “ Earnings per Share”. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic earnings (loss) per share. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding. Potentially dilutive common shares are additional common shares assumed to be exercised. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of stock warrants, convertible preferred shares and convertible notes and are excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation in periods where the Company has incurred a net loss, as their effect would be considered anti-dilutive.
The Company had warrants outstanding to purchase 892,165 shares of common stock at December 31, 2022 which upon exercise, would result in the issuance of 892,165 shares of common stock. These warrants are exercisable at $0.01 per share
The Company’s Series C Preferred Stock including outstanding dividends is convertible into 2,643,082 shares of Common Stock at December 31, 2022. The Company’s Series D Preferred including outstanding dividends is convertible into 790,400 shares of common stock at December 31, 2022.
The Company had warrants outstanding (the 2015 Warrant) to purchase 2,657,895 shares of common stock at December 31, 2021 which upon exercise, would result in the issuance of 3,060,998 shares of common stock. Of these warrants 2,168,745 were exercisable at $2.04 per share and 892,165 were exercisable at $0.01 per share. The Company also had convertible debt instruments as of December 31, 2021 which, upon conversion at $2.50 per share, would result in the issuance of 217,312 shares of common stock.

At December 31, 2022, 892,165 of potentially dilutive common stock related to outstanding warrants were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as the net income impact of the converted shares would cause earnings per share to increase, therefore their effect would be antidilutive.
At December 31, 2021, 2,168,833 shares of potentially dilutive common stock related to outstanding stock warrants and 217,312 shares of potentially dilutive common stock related to convertible debt were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation, using the treasury stock method, because the exercise and conversion prices exceeded the average stock price and therefore their effect would be anti-dilutive. In addition, at December 31, 2021, 892,165 of potentially dilutive common stock related to outstanding warrants were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as the net income impact of the converted shares would cause earnings per share to increase, therefore their effect would be antidilutive.
Related Party Transactions
FASB ASC 850 "Related Party Disclosures" requires companies to include in their consolidated financial statements disclosures of material related party transactions. The Company discloses all material related party transactions.

The Series I Notes bear simple interest at twelve and a half percent (12.5%), accrued for twelve months, and with the accrued interest to be added to the principal, and then interest will be paid by the Company, quarterly in arrears.
The Series I Note holders retained the option, at any time prior to maturity or prepayment, to convert any unpaid principal and accrued interest into Common Stock at $2.50 per share. If the Series I Note is converted into Common Stock, at the time of conversion, the holder would also receive warrants, in the same number as the number of common shares received upon conversion, to purchase additional common shares of the Company for $7.50 per share, with such warrants expiring one year from their conversion date.
The Notes originally matured on December 31, 2015. The notes were extended multiple times including some interest payments being rolled into the principal. At December 31, 2021, six Series I Notes remained outstanding with a total balance of $455,905.
On July 1, 2022 the remaining Series I Notes were paid off in full in cash. None of the notes were converted into common stock and no stock warrants were issued.
Notes Payable - Series II
In 2013 and 2014, the Company entered into additional note agreements of $199,808 and $250,000, respectively (the “Series II Notes”) with similar terms as the Series I Notes. The Series II Notes bear simple interest at twelve and a half percent (12.5%), accrued for twelve months, and with the accrued interest to be added to the principal, and then interest will be paid by the Company, quarterly in arrears. The Note holder retained the option to at any time prior to maturity or prepayment, convert any unpaid principal and accrued interest into common stock of the Company at $2.50 per share. At the time of conversion, the holder would receive a warrant to purchase additional common shares of the Company for $7.50 per share, such warrant expiring one year from their conversion date.

NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
FASB ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, mandates the asset and liability approach to determine the income tax provision or benefit. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Income tax receivables and liabilities and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the amounts that more likely than not will be sustained upon ultimate settlement with taxing authorities.
Developing our provision for income taxes and analysis of uncertain tax positions requires significant judgment and knowledge of federal and state income tax laws, regulations and strategies, including the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities and, if necessary, any valuation allowances that may be required for deferred tax assets.
We assess the realization of our deferred tax assets to determine whether an income tax valuation allowance is required. Based on all available evidence, both positive and negative, and the weight of that evidence to the extent such evidence can be objectively verified, we determine whether it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will be realized.
We consider many factors when evaluating our uncertain tax positions, and such judgments are subject to periodic review. Tax benefits associated with uncertain tax positions are recognized in the period in which one of the following conditions is satisfied: (1) the more likely than not recognition threshold is satisfied; (2) the position is ultimately settled through negotiation or litigation; or (3) the statute of limitations for the taxing authority to examine and challenge the position has expired. Tax benefits associated with an uncertain tax position are derecognized in the period in which the more likely than not recognition threshold is no longer satisfied.

At December 31, 2022, our carryforwards available to offset US federal future taxable income consisted of net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $2.8 million pre-tax, all of which, has no expiration date. Future NOL utilization will be subject to the 80-percent of taxable income limitation, as all remaining NOLs have been generated after 2017 and the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. The Company’s Mexico net operating losses of $8.2M pre-tax are subject to a ten-year carryforward period and the Company anticipates utilizing all of its Mexico NOL in future years before expiration.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the valuation allowance was released. The Company believes a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset is no longer warranted based on the positive evidence in recent years. Such positive evidence includes no longer being in a three-year cumulative losses, the rising prices in gold, utilization of current year tax attributes, and projected taxable income in the future.
Our practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income taxes in income tax expense in continuing operations, as incurred. We did not have any uncertain tax benefits or interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits as of December 31, 2022.
The Company is subject to income taxes in the US federal jurisdiction as well as Mexico. The Company is no longer subject to US federal, state and local tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to fiscal year 2021. The Company began utilizing its NOL in 2021. The statute of limitations began when the Company filed its 2021 US Federal Tax Return. The Company is no longer subject to Mexican tax examinations for years prior to fiscal year 2017. The Company is currently not under audit by any tax authority.
The Company has not provided U.S. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes, on its cumulative earnings for certain non-U.S. subsidiaries, because such earnings are intended to be indefinitely reinvested. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability for temporary differences related to investments in these non-U.S. subsidiaries that are essentially permanent in duration is not practicable.
NOTE 7 - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Authorized Capital. The total number of shares of all classes of capital stock which the corporation shall have the authority to issue is 60,001,000 shares, consisting of (i) twenty million and one thousand (20,001,000) shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Preferred Stock”), of which one thousand (1,000) shares shall be designated as Series A Preferred Stock, 1,734,992 are designated as Series C Preferred Stock, and 3,000,000 shares are designated as Series D Preferred Stock, and (ii) forty million (40,000,000) shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”).

At December 31, 2022, dividends for the years 2017 to 2022 totaling $1,053,777 were in arrears.
Due to the nature of this transaction as mandatorily redeemable by the Company at the election of the Series C preferred stock shareholder at maturity, the Series C Senior Convertible Preferred Shares are classified as “temporary equity” on the balance sheet.
The 2015 Warrant - Attached to the Series C Preferred Stock issued in 2015 were 2,000,000 warrants, described as the “2015 Warrant” which gave the holder the right to purchase common shares at $2.50 per share.

Retirement of Series D Convertible Debt
On October 7, 2021, the Company paid $2,500,000 to repurchase one note that was convertible into Series D Preferred Stock.
The remaining ten noteholders of notes convertible into Series D Preferred Stock elected to convert their notes totaling $1,520,000 into Series D Preferred stock at $2.00 per share. On October 18, 2021 the Company issued 760,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock for these notes.
In addition the redemption of the Series D notes trigged an acceleration of the amortization of the original loan discount booked at the issuance of the Series D notes (see discussion below) and being amortized over the 24 month life of the notes of $287,508 in October 2021.
As part of the transaction all Series D noteholders agreed to waive the non-dilution rights contained in the original note and an amendment of the Series D Preferred Stock designation was filed with the State of Delaware.
At December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 760,000 and 760,000 Series D Preferred shares outstanding, respectively. These Series D Preferred Shares are convertible to common shares at $2.00 per share, through October 18, 2026. The Series D Preferred Shares carry a 4% per annum dividend and in arrears. The Dividend is calculated at 4.0% of $1,520,000 payable annually on October 18. At December 31, 2022, $60,800 dividends were in arrears.
Due to the nature of this transaction as mandatorily redeemable by the Company at the election of the Series D preferred stock holder at maturity, the Series D preferred shares are classified as “temporary equity” on the balance sheet.
Due to underlying anti-dilutive provisions contained in the Series C Preferred Stock and the 2015 Warrant, the Company incurred derivative liabilities. On May 14, 2020 in connection with the Series D Convertible Note financing, the expiration date for the Series C Preferred Stock and the 2015 Warrant were extended to June 30, 2022.

The Series C Preferred Stock became payable on demand when not converted on June 30, 2022 extinguishing the associated derivative liability. At December 31, 2022 the remaining derivative liability was $2,172,417 in connection with the warrants for kicker shares in connection with the Series D financing. The deemed dividends for the years ending December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021 were $234,299 and $188,699, respectively.

The Company notes the following: since Mineras is a company of Mexican nationality, under Mexican law Mineras has the right to legally oppose the recognition and enforcement of the award to Mercuria, the assessment of any costs, and any supplemental award.
Concession Taxes
The Company is required to pay taxes in México in order to maintain mining concessions owned by DynaMéxico. Additionally, the Company is required to incur a minimum amount of expenditures each year for all concessions held. The minimum expenditures are calculated based upon the land area, as well as the age of the concessions. Amounts spent in excess of the minimum may be carried forward indefinitely over the life of the concessions and are adjusted annually for inflation. Based on Management’s recent business activities and current and forward plans and considering expenditures on mining concessions from 2002-2017 and continuing expenditures in current and forward activities, the Company does not anticipate that DynaMéxico will have any difficulties meeting the minimum annual expenditures for the concessions ($388 - $2,400 Mexican Pesos per hectare). DynaMéxico retains sufficient carry- forward amounts to cover over 10 years of the minimum expenditure (as calculated at the 2017 minimum, adjusted for annual inflation of 4%).
Leases
In addition to the surface rights held by DynaMéxico pursuant to the Mining Act of México and its Regulations (Ley Minera y su Reglamento), DynaMineras maintains access and surface rights to the SJG Project pursuant to the 20-year Land Lease Agreement. The 20 Year Land Lease Agreement with the Santa Maria Ejido Community surrounding San Jose de Gracía was dated January 6, 2014 and continues through January 2033. It covers an area of 4,399 hectares surrounding the main mineral resource areas of SJG and provides for annual lease payments on January 1st each year by DynaMineras of $1,359,443 pesos adjusted for inflation based on the Mexico minimum wage increase commencing in 2014. Rent was $3,678,437 Pesos (approx. $183,000 USD) for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Land Lease Agreement provides DynaMineras with surface access to the core resource areas of SJG (4,399 hectares), and allows for all permitted mining and exploration activities from the owners of the surface rights (Santa Maria Ejido community).
The Company leases office space for its corporate headquarters in Irving, Texas. In September 2017, the Company entered into a sixty-six-month extension of the lease through January 2023. As part of the agreement the Company received six months free rent as a finish out allowance. The Company capitalized the leasehold improvement costs and amortized them over the rent abatement period as rent expense. The Company makes tiered lease payments on the 1st of each month.
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842, which requires recognition of a right-of-use asset and lease liability for all leases at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding the Company's leasing arrangements are also required. The Company adopted ASC 842 prospectively and elected the package of transition practical expedients that does not require reassessment of (1) whether any existing or expired contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification and (3) initial direct costs. In addition, the Company has elected other available practical expedients to not separate lease and non-lease components, which consist principally of common area maintenance charges, for all classes of underlying assets and to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less.
The Company determines if a contract is or contains a lease at inception. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has two operating leases - a six- and one-half year lease for office space with a remaining term of one month and a twenty-year ground lease in association with its México mining operations with a remaining term of eleven years. Variable lease costs consist primarily of variable common area maintenance, storage parking and utilities. The Company’s leases do not have any residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.
As the implicit rate is not readily determinable for most of the Company’s lease agreements, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate to determine the initial present value of lease payments. These discount rates for leases are calculated using the Company's interest rate of promissory notes.
The Company’s components of lease cost are as follows:

NOTE 11 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
Series C Preferred Stock
As discussed in Note 7, the Company analyzed the embedded conversion features of the Series C Preferred Stock and determined that the conversion feature qualified as embedded derivative liability and is required to be bifurcated and accounted for as such since the host and the embedded instrument are not clearly and closely related. The Company performed a valuation of the conversion feature. In performing the valuation, the Company applied the guidance in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements”, to nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. ASC 820 defines fair value 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 the measurement date (exit price). To measure fair value, the Company incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and utilizes market data to the maximum extent possible.
In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The Company considered the inputs in this valuation to be level 3 in the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 (see “Note 12”) and used an equity simulation model to determine the value of conversion feature of the Series C Preferred Stock based on the assumptions below:
Annual volatility rate

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, an active market for the Company’s common stock did not exist. Accordingly, the fair value of the Company’s common stock was estimated using a valuation model with level 3 inputs.
The below table represents the change in the fair value of the derivative liability during the nine and twelve months ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
2015 Warrant
As discussed in Note 7, the Company analyzed the embedded conversion features of the Series C Preferred Stock and determined that the 2015 Warrant (issued at the same time as the Series C Preferred Stock) qualified as a derivative liability and is required to be accounted for as such. The Company performed a valuation applying the guidance in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements”, to nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. ASC 820 defines fair value 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 the measurement date (exit price). To measure fair value, the Company incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and utilizes market data to the maximum extent possible.
In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The Company considered the inputs in this valuation to be level 3 in the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 (see note 12) and used an equity simulation model to determine the value of the 2015 Warrant based on the assumptions below:

The 2015 Warrant was exercised on June 28, 2022.
Warrants issued with the Notes convertible into Series D Preferred
As discussed in Note 7, the Company analyzed the conversion features of the promissory notes convertible into Series D Preferred and determined that the 2020 warrants and remaining purchaser warrants issued with such notes qualified as a derivative liability. The fair value was required to be allocated among the notes, the notes’ conversion features, and the 2020 warrants and remaining purchaser warrants, and then remeasured at each reporting date. The Company performed a valuation of the conversion feature of the 2020 warrants and remaining purchaser warrants. In performing the valuation, the Company applied the guidance in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements”, to nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. ASC 820 defines fair value 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 the measurement date (exit price). To measure fair value, the Company incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and utilizes market data to the maximum extent possible.
In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The Company considered the inputs in this valuation to be level 3 in the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 (see “Note 11”) and used an equity simulation model to determine the value of conversion feature of the Warrants issued with the notes convertible into Series D Preferred based on the assumptions below:

NOTE 12 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The ASC guidance for fair value measurements and disclosure establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 Inputs - Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 Inputs - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 Inputs - Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.
As of December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Company’s financial assets were measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs, with the exception of cash, which was valued using Level 1 inputs. A description of the valuation of the Level 3 inputs is discussed in Note 10.

Evaluation of Disclosure on Controls and Procedures.
We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2022. This evaluation was accomplished under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer / principal executive officer and our financial consultant who concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that all material information required to be filed in the annual report on Form 10-K has been made known to them. The evaluation did not include a 404A assessment. For purposes of this section, the term disclosure controls and procedures mean controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seg.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure, controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act") is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Annual 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 Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
Because of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework) at December 31, 2022. Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, our internal controls over financial reporting were effective.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to the attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
