Corporate History and Background
Corporate Universe, Inc ("COUV”, or the "Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) was incorporated in Delaware on May 28, 1986 as Cross Atlantic Capital Inc. On January 5, 1998, the Company changed its name to Elgin e2 Inc. On June 16, 1999 the Company changed its name to Elgin Technologies Inc. On September 30, 2008, the Company changed its name to Inicia Incorporated (“Inicia”). On August 9, 2010, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The filing with the Secretary of State changed the name from Inicia to Corporate Universe, Inc.
On June 29, 2011, the Company changed its name to Carrier Alliance Group Inc. On July 17, 2020, the Company changed its name back to Corporate Universe, Inc.
Carbon-ion Energy, Inc (“Carbon Ion”) is a special purpose vehicle incorporated in Delware on December 29, 2020 that acquired Oxcion Limited (“Oxcion”) located in the UK as a wholly-owned subsidiary effective March 11, 2021 pursuant to a share exchange agreement. Oxcion had previously acquired certain assets and liabilities of ZapGo Ltd (“ZapGo”) out of bankruptcy in the UK from the bankruptcy administrator on September 11, 2020. ZapGo can trace its history back to 2013, with the mission to revolutionize energy storage to enable a sustainable future.
On April 13, 2021, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Carbon Ion in order to complete the Reverse Merger Acquisition in the Binding Letter of Intent dated December 10, 2020. This document is in the Exhibit section.
On November 12, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the Company, used as a special purpose acquisition company, consummated the Business Combination Agreement (the “Share Purchase Agreement and other related documents”) dated April 13, 2021, by and among COUV and Carbon Ion.
Pursuant to the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement, a business combination between COUV and Carbon Ion was effected through the merger with Carbon Ion as the surviving company and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of COUV (the “Acquisition” and, collectively with the other transactions described in the Share Purchase Agreement and related documents, the “Business Combination”). Accordingly, following consummation of this agreement, the business of Carbon-ion became our main business. References to the Company include Carbon-ion or its busines following consummation of this agreement.
Having satisfied the SEC with their enquiries over our filings (Form 10 A), we were able to close the acquisition on November 12, 2021, the Company consummated the transactions contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement with Carbon Ion and the holders (the “Carbon Ion Shareholders”) of Carbon Ion’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.000001 per share (“Carbon Ion Common Shares”), pursuant to which the Carbon Ion Shareholders exchanged 100% of the outstanding Carbon Ion Common Shares, for (i) 100,000 shares of Series D preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Series D Preferred Stock”), of the Company, and (ii) 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share of the Company (“Common Stock,” and together with Series D Preferred Stock, the “Exchange Shares,” and the foregoing exchange of Carbon Ion Common Shares for Exchange Shares being the “Share Exchange”). A copy of the Share Exchange Agreement was filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Current on Form 8-K filed November 16, 2021. This was followed up by filing Schedule 14 on November 23, 2021. All these documents are shown as Exhibits for this 10 K filing.
Overview
Carbon Ion is developing next generation supercapacitor technology aimed at the grid and other energy storage applications.
We see ‘Hybrid’ solutions, by combining the best in class battery solutions with super capacitors, as the way forward to deliver sustainable energy for the next three decades and a grid which is fit for the future. Super Capacitors are different but complimentary technology to batteries.
We are at the beginning of a forecasted once-in-a-century shift in moving away from fossil fuels to power our energy requirements across all demands for electricity.
For example, while current battery technology has demonstrated the benefits of EVs, principally in the premium passenger car market, there are fundamental limitations inhibiting widespread adoption of battery technology. They can catch fire easily, they use rare earth materials and have limited life span and the power delivery is compromised. They are not a universally applicable energy store.
Lamborghini recognised this in their recently launched supercar costing $3.5M the ‘Sian’ that has adopted regenerative braking using super capacitors as their first move to electric powertrains. Supercapacitors can deliver more power, more quickly than a battery solution. As part of the VW Group, Lamborghini elected to go a different route to the rest with their first ever hybrid car, and not follow the industry orthodoxy of a Lithium battery solution. As a result, we believe a hybrid solution using new super capacitor technology with complimentary battery technology represents the most promising path to unlock a mass market shift. A super capacitor can provide that immediate fast delivery (instant kick) mechanism and then once momentum and velocity is achieved the system moves over to battery power. In this way, the system can be better optimised for both cost and performance.
After 30 years of gradual improvements in conventional lithium-ion batteries we believe (like others in the industry) the market needs a step change in battery technology to make mass market EVs competitive with the fossil fuel alternative. We have gone, like Lamborghini’s terzo millenio does, down a direct route to achieve this goal.
We have spent the last decade developing a proprietary supercapacitor technology to meet this challenge. We believe that our technology enables a new category of supercapacitor that meets the requirements for broader market adoption. The Carbon-ion (C-ion) Super Capacitor technology that we are developing is being designed to offer greater energy density and safety when compared to today’s conventional super capacitors and longer life and faster charging than batteries.
We are focused on energy storage applications, which have a stringent set of requirements for super capacitor butour super capacitor technology also has applicability in other large and growing markets such as frequency response and fast recovery storage. Supercapacitors are best used when you need energy fast.
We will continue developing our C-ion super capacitor carbon-ion technology with the goal of beginning transfer to commercial production in the first half of 2025. We have evaluated each of the elements required for initial success and calculated the high performance which we expect from their combination. We are now working to combine and optimize all components of the cell. We will then further develop volume manufacturing processes to enable high volume manufacturing and minimize manufacturing costs.
We are looking to raise funds that will enable us to expand and accelerate research and development activities and undertake additional initiatives. As well as continuing to develop our scientific and engineering capabilities iat Milton Park Abingdon England, we will use third party pilot lines, to achieve our goal of being prepared to begin the transition to high volume manufacturing capability from 2025.
We intend to work closely with original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) to make our cells widely available over time. We recognize that our super capacitor technology has applicability in other large and growing markets including energy storage and other electricity grid type environments such a frequency response. We expect that the heavy transport industries such a shipping, trains, planes and nascent infrastructure charging will also feature.
Our technology enables a variety of business models. In addition to joint ventures, we may look to operate solely-owned manufacturing facilities or license technology to other manufacturers. Where appropriate, we may sell know how, electrodes or other subassemblies rather than complete super capacitor cells. We intend to continue to invest in research and development beyond Gen 4.0 to improve super capacitor cell performance, improve manufacturing processes, and reduce cost subject to having raised sufficient funds to do this.
Carbon-Ion was founded to develop a new class of energy storage device with considerable functional improvements over commercially available supercapacitors or ‘ultracapacitors’.
The C-Ion cell will provide specific power characteristics much higher than a Li-ion cell. It is designed to be classified as non-flammable and non-hazardous for transport, allowing the product to be shipped easily and to comply with both current and future regulations.
Due to the method of energy storage, the cell has fewer moving parts electrochemically and can go through significantly more charge/discharge cycles and/or operate for many years of normal use.
The C-Ion cell is being designed for manufacture using technologies well known in high volume manufacture. This will enable Carbon-Ion to quickly scale-up production. Carbon-ion allows new products to be made and extra functions to be added to existing products, for example:
·
Improved energy storage allows the cell to be used as the principal method of energy storage in a far wider range of technologies than conventional supercapacitors
·
High specific power allows very fast charging
·
High specific power enables the extension of Li-ion battery lifetimes and reduction in battery size through peak shaving in hybrid applications
·
Improved safety protects customers, allows easy shipping and opens up applications in hazardous areas
·
Long cycle life allows energy storage to be installed for the entire lifetime of the device, reducing design complexity, eliminating service intervals and saving money
Industry Background
We believe that governmental action on climate change and the consequent drive to zero-carbon energy generation must lead to adoption of a rapidly increasing percentage of renewables in electricity generation markets. Legislation, regulation and consumer preferences coupled with growing government incentives are necessitating a once-in-a-century shift towards transient generation with basedload replaced by a range of innovative energy storage solutions.
Countries around the world are promoting a shift to renewable energy generation. The dependence on fossil fuels to power electricity is one of the largest environmental concerns, and has created reliance among industrialized and developing nations on large oil and gas imports. In turn this has exposed consumers to unstable fuel and electricity prices and health concerns related to heightened emissions.
Adding more renewables to the grid makes for an increasingly transient generation and provides challenges with frequency regulation which can be met by using high power energy storage such as C-Ion. Hybrid energy storage systems on the grid can provide a range of services which address changes to supply (renewables) and demand (e.g. EVs) sides of the equation.
Many national and regional regulatory bodies have adopted legislation to incentivize or require a shift to lower-emission and zero-emission vehicles. For example, over a dozen of countries including the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, France and Norway have announced intentions to either increase applicable environmental targets or outright ban the sale of new electric vehicles in the next two decades. In 2020, California passed regulations requiring half of trucks sold in the state to be zero-emissions by 2035 and 100% by 2045. In 2021, the United States outlined the target of 50% EV sales share by 2030 and the European Union proposed an effective ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2035. This global push to transition from ICE vehicles, aided by favorable government incentives and regulations, is accelerating the growth in lower- and zero-emission vehicle markets.
Furthermore, governments and consumers are increasingly considering alternative energy storage solutions for a variety of reasons including better performance, deferring infrastructure upgrade costs, significantly lighter environmental impact, and lower maintenance and operating costs. Automakers such as Tesla, Inc. have demonstrated that premium EVs can deliver a compelling alternative to fossil fuels. As EVs become more competitive and more affordable, we believe that they will continue to take market share from ICE vehicles. Bloomberg estimate that the world demand for lithium-ion batteries could reach 400GWh (Giga Watt hours) by 2025 as demand for electric vehicles grows. We believe that this shift will occur across the entire electricity chain and market segments. However, the inherent limitations of lithium-ion battery technology continue to impede improvements in EV competitiveness and cost.
At the same time the mass roll-out of EVs will challenge national grid infrastructure. In both Grid and EV, we think Hybrid solutions using both Super Capacitors and batteries in combination will be the future.
Areas where Hybridisation with Super Capacitors boosts and protects Battery
In particular, we highlight four areas where hybridisation will drive broad adoption of energy storage solutions:
·
Right Sizing (Energy for Energy, Power for Power). Today’s battery systems are generally either oversized (Grid) or run at the limit of their capability (EV) in terms of power. This leads to additional cost or shortened lifetimes and safety concerns. Our view is that, in a hybrid system, when you want power use Carbon-Ion and when you want energy use the battery. This means that the system can be optimised to maximise beneficial aspects of each technology while mitigating others.
·
Safety (nonflammable). Carbon-Ion cells are not flammable and will not catch fire. It is also possible that they could reduce the risk of fire in a hybrid system. Carbon-ion is also more tolerant of temperature fluctuation and limit the requirement for costly cooling systems.
·
Cost. By right sizing and simplification of cooling and safety systems, more options are available for cost optimisation at a system level. Improvements in lifetime also lower total cost of ownership.
·
Cycle life. By taking on the high power peaks and troughs of a typical drive cycle (either EV or Grid), Carbon-Ion cells can protect batteries when hybridised resulting in longer lifetimes. Carbon-Ion cells are capable of many fast cycles thus reducing the number of cycles experienced by the battery.
Supercapacitor technologies on the market today provide some of the qualities necessary for the game changing hybrid systems we imagine above but are limited in terms of Energy Density and make compromises in terms of safety and sustainability.
·
Carbon Ion aims to increase energy density more than threefold over it’s own previous generation of technology (industry leading performance measured in prototype pouches)
·
Carbon Ion does not use the commonly used but flammable and harmful solvent, Acetonitrile (methyl cyanide) in its electrolytes.
Our Product Strategy
The Company is developing and bringing to market the next generation of capacitive energy storage. These C-Ion cells use improved materials and efficient design to solve global problems in (i) delivery of power-on-demand, (ii) grid management and (iii) electric vehicles.
A very wide range of energy storage technologies will be needed in order to transition from a fossil-fuel based energy system to a system fueled by renewable energy sources. We believe that hybrid solutions where both supercapacitors and batteries work together will become increasingly essential. We are developing C-Ion products fit for this renewable age.

The dependence on fossil fuels to power electricity is one of the largest environmental concerns and has created reliance among industrialized and developing nations on large oil and gas imports In turn this has exposed consumers to unstable fuel and electricity prices and health concerns related to heightened emissions.
Power-on-Demand
The world is in the midst of a potential transition to fully electric living, which transition would disrupt nearly every industry on the planet. As a result, there is a critical need for better and more diverse energy storage in order for many industries to provide more impactful solutions to consumers of all kinds. We intend to bridge this gap in a groundbreaking way by delivering fast and clean power on demand to a broad range of applications from infrastructure to individual products. The C-Ion cells that we are developing have unique properties that allow them to charge and discharge extremely quickly, while still retaining meaningful energy storage. These unique C-Ion cells deliver a powerful boost in hybrid systems with potential applications in enhanced grid revenue stacking or even powering take-off in electric-powered aviation.
The Company’s proposed technology and unique material properties enable an extremely fast response time that adds more value to the entire power system. C-Ion cells are designed to deliver high cycle life and ramping capabilities, along with repeated high cyclic storage with no performance degradation. This creates significant efficiencies in energy systems that will, in turn, save money, time, and resources.
Grid Market Management (Dynamic Containment)
Adding more renewables to the grid make for increasingly transient generation and provides challenges with frequency regulation which can be met by using high power energy storage such as C-Ion. Hybrid energy storage systems on the grid can provide a range of services which address changes to supply (renewables) and demand (e.g., EVs) sides of the equation.
Significant loss of grid inertia has led to more numerous frequency deviations than before, and a range of technologies is needed to move toward a grid that is fully supplied by sustainable generation. This need to plug the gap in grid inertia will be true in every country in the world if the goal of ‘net-zero’ is adopted. The technology that we are developing can perform several roles to address issues in sustainable generation. C-Ion technology harnesses the ability to perform fast-responding, short-term energy storage to take energy from or provide energy to the grid and can provide support to improve the round-trip efficiency of renewable energy generation assets.
There are major problems with grid management in: (i) access to raw energy on short notice, and (ii) maintaining the frequency of the alternating current within the narrow 50Hz bandwidth. Supercapacitors can provide both the amount of power-on-demand (as in the case of an off-line power station), and the ability to balance the frequency required by all electrical equipment.
As the world moves away from fossil and nuclear fuels toward green energy like solar and wind, the energy input into the grid will require energy management to keep the various fluctuations of grid systems balanced. Supercapacitors offer the speed and the volume of energy required to keep grid systems up and running in the case of a sudden loss of energy input.
Electric Vehicles
Many national and regional regulatory bodies have adopted legislation to incentivize or require a shift to lower-emission and zero-emission vehicles. For example, over a dozen of countries including the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, France and Norway have announced intentions to either increase applicable environmental targets or outright ban the sale of new ICE vehicles in the next two decades. In 2020, California passed regulations requiring half of trucks sold in the state to be zero-emissions by 2035 and 100% by 2045. In 2021, the United States outlined the target of 50% EV sales share by 2030 and the European Union proposed an effective ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2035. This global push to transition from ICE vehicles, aided by favorable government incentives and regulations, is accelerating the growth in lower- and zero-emission vehicle markets.
Bloomberg estimates that the world demand for Li-ion batteries could reach 400GWh (Gigawatt hours) by 2025 as demand for electric vehicles grows. At the same time, the mass roll-out of electric vehicles will challenge grid infrastructures. We believe that our technology could address growing energy demands for electric vehicles by storing energy at low power from the grid and delivering it quickly and at high power to vehicles.
Certain car manufacturers are developing next-generation electric vehicles that may support extreme fast charging. This allows charging stations to operate at megawatt rates of charge ten times faster than the current Tesla superchargers, according to TransportXtra. At these rates, recharging an electric vehicle for a 300-mile (450 km) range would be possible in just five minutes. C-Ion technology is well suited for upgrading the power output of recharging stations where the grid infrastructure is limited.
Furthermore, governments and consumers are increasingly considering alternative energy storage solutions for a variety of reasons including better performance, deferring infrastructure upgrade costs, significantly lighter environmental impact, and lower maintenance and operating costs. Automakers such as Tesla, Inc. have demonstrated that premium EVs can deliver a compelling alternative to fossil fuels.

Our Growth Strategy
Continue to Develop our Gen4 Carbon-ion technology
We will continue developing our carbon-ion technology with the goal of beginning transfer to commercial production in the first half of 2025. We have evaluated each of the elements required for initial success and calculated the high performance which we expect from their combination. We are now working to combine and optimize all components of the cell. We will then further develop volume manufacturing processes to enable high volume manufacturing and minimize manufacturing costs. As can be seen below Gen4 (and subsequently 4.1, 4.2) development activities represent a significant improvement over the existing technology, Gen 3.Strategic Partnerships.
Benefits of Our Technology
C-ion technology is being developed to enable significant benefits across super capacitor capacity, cycle life, cell safety, unit cost and charging speed. We believe these benefits will provide significant value to customers and enable greater customer adoption by addressing key metrics, filling technology gaps and enabling mass market adoption of a wider range of energy storage solutions:
Right Sizing (Energy for Energy, Power for Power). Our cell design is intended to significantly increase volumetric energy density over traditional supercapacitor cells. By eliminating as much inactive material as possible at a cell level, energy storage is maximised - initially increasing volumetric energy by around 50%. Technology strategy is then targeted to further, similar increases with each subsequent development cycle. These high-power devices have a longer duration than conventional supercapacitors and can thus be used in a wider range of circumstances.
Increased safety. Our cells use a non-flammable, non-toxic electrolyte and are designed to be stable to a wide range of temperature (-40 to 80 degrees Celsius). A nail penetration test was carried out and shows no reaction in the case of a Gen3 cell, we expect this to be no different for Gen4. Many other supercapacitors use solvents such as Acetonitrile (Methyl Cyanide) in their electrolytes which are flammable and harmful.
Cost. Our technology is being developed for mass manufacture and using materials which provide value for money. Enabling mass market adoption will bring with it the economies of scale necessary to provide cost effective solutions in a range of markets. As a hybrid system, the extra longevity of battery components within the hybrid can lower the total cost of ownership. When our technology is used to buffer inadequate infrastructure, cost can be saved in deferring upgrades.
Cycle life. The inherently longer cycle life of electrostatic vs electrochemical energy storage gives an opportunity for longer life of systems either through hybridisation or alone. The extra energy storage afforded by C-Ion cells gives an advantage over some supercapacitors in that fewer cycles are needed for the same energy transferred, thus increasing lifetime of systems.
Strategic Partnerships.
Form key strategic research partnerships to seed the development of enabling technologies for future product generations. Where it provides good value for our shareholders, we will seek to capture intellectual property from these relationships. This kind of external innovation programme not only provides benefits in terms of the creating of new intellectual property but also enables thought leadership and encourages doctoral students to be trained in areas relevant for Carbon-Ion, providing a workforce for the future.
Commercially, a Chief Technical Strategist with particular experience in regional and national electrical grids has been brought on board to explore strategic relationships with a range of stakeholders in electrical grids. This will provide input to our technology development and could yield strategic investments, orders etc.
Develop Solutions
Our technology is being designed to enable a variety of business models, but must gain a good understanding of the total cost of ownership and management of hybrid systems. In addition to scientific research we will also undertake applications engineering and energy management development at a fundamental level in order to better understand, and meet, customer needs. Where appropriate, we may build and sell cell layers rather than complete cells.
Expand Target Markets
In addition to grid market development through our Chief Technical Strategist, we are entering into discussions with stakeholders in autonomous electric vehicles, aerospace, shipping, and mass transit and will continue to gather information from these sources in order to present compelling propositions to these markets. Should any market propositions prove compelling, we will engage sales and marketing professionals with particular expertise in that field to work on our behalf.
Employees
We currently have a team of eight (8) scientists, engineers, and other staff. We are also being assisted by third-party contractors that are providing additional support. We expect to expand our management and the product and intellectual-property development teams substantially after the close of this Offering to maintain more control over the development of our products to meet our business plans.
Intellectual Property
On December 10, 2020, COUV signed a binding Letter of Intent (the “Letter of Intent”) to acquire 100% of the equity interest of Oxcion Limited (the “Acquisition”), an entity incorporated and registered under the laws of England and Wales (Registration Number 06826090) (“Oxcion”), which was formerly known as Solutions for Start Up Ventures Limited (“Solutions”), and the owner of the ongoing business and assets of Zapgo Limited, including S (the “Zapgo Assets”), which are listed herein on Exhibit A.
The Company was formed as a special purpose vehicle by the shareholders of Oxcion to acquire the Zapgo Assets. The Company assumed the right to complete the acquisition of the Zapgo Assets. The Company and COUV pursuant to which the original shareholders of Carbon Ion (the “Carbon-Ion Shareholders”) exchanged their shares for shares in COUV.[1]
The original Zapgo technology includes multi-layer supercapacitor cells made on commercial Li-Ion battery manufacturing lines (for Mobile phone and EV batteries) in commercially relevant sizes (again Phone/EV). Our focus has been to produce core intellectual property with a focus on nano-carbons, electrolyte, and integration of C-ion, which has resulted in high density super capacitors and high voltage super capacitors.
___________________________________
1The Share Exchange Agreement provided that the Carbon-Ion Shareholders received the following shares in COUV (i) 100,000 shares of Series D preferred stock, and (ii) 100,000,000 shares of common stock.
In the next phase of development, we intend to focus on the following initiatives:
i.
Self-supporting electrodes, which allow separation of current collection and physical stability in the manufacturing process;
ii.
Gel electrolytes, which improve energy density and safe in the cell;
iii.
New manufacturing routes, which will combine well known, high volume processes in a novel way to bring down manufacturing costs; and
iv.
Continued improvements in pseudo capacitance, which creates future innovations for new technologies;
Our Milton Park, Abingdon Laboratory and engineering facility (currently being fitted out) has been designed to serve these purposes. First, the laboratory and engineering facility provides a sufficient quantity of super capacitor cells for internal development. And, second, our Milton Park, Abingdon is being built to have small scale manufacturing technology elements which can be configured to develop scalable new processes. This provides the basis for limited at scale manufacturing process development with third parties at Pilot Facilities. Without this capability, retention of intellectual property in manufacture would be difficult or costly and so any delays in the successful buildout of our facility may impact both our development and timelines.
Capturing our forecasted cost (performance) advantage at scale as compared to conventional super capacitor cells will require our team to continue process development to achieve rates of throughput, use of electricity and consumables, yield, and rate of automation demonstrated of mature super capacitor manufacturing processes. Notably, removal of water is a process step in carbon-ion manufacturing critical to both quality and product cost. We believe achieving required process cost advances is possible; our processes are designed around some tools which are already used at scale in the battery industries with the addition of alternative processing methods that may further increase the capital efficiency of the process. However, delay or failure on these fronts, and in particular with respect to water removal, would result in a higher cost of goods sold, which may limit our ability to profitably sell our super capacitors.
We intend to protect and enhance the proprietary technology and inventions that are commercially important to our business, including seeking, maintaining, and defending patent rights. We plan to protect our proprietary position through a combination of intellectual property rights in the United States and globally, including patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secret laws, and internal procedures. Our commercial success will depend, in large part, on our ability to protect our intellectual property and proprietary technologies and all respective rights to such intellectual property and proprietary technologies therein.
As of the date hereof, our patent portfolio, including the Zapgo Patents, consists of over 100 patents that have been filed worldwide, of which over 30 have been granted. Below is a breakdown of patents filed and granted by jurisdiction.

Our issued patents will expire commencing in 2031. In addition, we plan to continue expanding and strengthening our IP portfolio with additional patent applications in the future. The research and development team returned to work on April 1, 2021, after having been on furlough during the COVID-19 pandemic. This team has focused on our technical expertise and identified over twenty (20) areas of interest where we now intend to file for numerous additional patents, subject to availability of sufficient funding. During this exercise we identified over forty (40) areas of ‘know-how,’ with particular emphasis on manufacturing and performance.
We may not be able to obtain protection for our intellectual property, and our existing and future patents, trademarks, know-how, and other intellectual property rights may not provide us with competitive advantages or distinguish our products and services from those of our competitors. Our pending patent applications and future applications may not result in the issuance of patents, and any resulting issued patents may have claims narrower than those in our patent applications. Additionally, our current and future patents, trademarks, and other intellectual property rights may be contested, circumvented, or found unenforceable or invalid, and we may not be able to prevent third parties from infringing them. Our internal controls may not always be effective at preventing unauthorized parties from obtaining our intellectual property and proprietary technologies.
Other companies that own patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and other intellectual property rights related to our technology-related industries frequently enter into litigation based on allegations of infringement, misappropriation, and other violations of intellectual property or other rights. Third parties, including our competitors, may make claims from time to time that we have infringed their patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets, or other intellectual property rights. As our business grows and competition rises, the risk of facing claims related to intellectual property and litigation matters will likely increase.
Competition
In order to differentiate our Company from competitors, we will work in the following ways and according to the following principles:
·
Targeting best in class supercapacitor energy density without adding Lithium In order to differentiate our Company from competitors, our goal is to develop a new cell architecture which increases energy density compared to its current supercapacitor (already high in this field) and introduce new material combinations to boost this further. Our technology approach should maintain high cycle life and safety characteristics while storing progressively more energy per unit volume.
·
High barriers to entry and extensive patent and intellectual property portfolio. Since inception, we have generated more than 100 patents and patent applications - including patents around our core technology and patents around application of technology. We have a range of patents/applications, including nano-carbons, electrode structures, cell operation and applications of our technology. A portfolio of future filings is already planned covering those topics and additionally manufacturing, hybridization, battery management, conditioning and others.
·
Strong network within battery and electrochemical communities. Being located in Oxfordshire, combined with strong networks in the Midlands and London give our R&D personnel the contacts and partnerships to find new collaborators and talent. The previous UK business collaborated with the likes of Oxford University, Imperial College London and Williams Advanced Engineering and Warwick Manufacturing Group (among others). Former staff can be found in other exciting energy storage businesses and communicate regularly with current team members.
·
Designed for volume production. Our cells are designed to use materials and processes suitable for high volume production. While our Gen3 technology was designed to be made on a Lithium ion production line, Gen4 will include higher volume elements from other industries in order to reduce cost and increase quality and throughput. An increased level of automation should be possible, allowing a very wide range of geographies to be attractive for manufacture. The addition of different processes is expected to provide a range of novel intellectual property.
·
Hybridization driving Industry cost trends. As we have discussed, hybridization using C-Ion cells could unlock far wider and faster adoption of novel energy storage technologies. This in turn could not only reduce costs through the larger size of that market but also dramatically reduce the cost of new energy storage technologies in the way we have seen with Lithium Ion technology.
There are currently several companies that are focused on the development of supercapacitors, and we expect several more competitors to enter into this market in the next few years. These competitors include Maxwell Technologies, Skeleton Technologies, Superdielectrics and NAWA Technologies. Many other companies develop or manufacture supercapacitors as part of a wider range of electronic components or batteries and also form part of the competitive landscape for the Company.
Many of our competitors have greater financial resources, longer operating histories, greater brand recognition and stability, larger customer bases and significantly greater technical, sales, and marketing, and other resources than us. We expect to encounter new competitors as we enter new markets as well as increased competition, both domestically and internationally. Being a technology forward company, continued advancements, innovative new services, and new products from other competitors that are introduced may reduce demand for our solutions or make them obsolete. Our current and potential competitors may also establish cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties and rapidly acquire significant market share. Despite our differentiators, increased competition could also result in price reductions and loss of market share, any of which could result in lower revenue and negatively affect our ability to grow our business.
Process Development
Though our C-ion design is unique, its manufacturing relies on well-established, high-volume production processes currently deployed globally in other industries at large scale. We plan to outsource to OEM’s to manufacture cells, but will develop the process to a point which retains significant intellectual property.
Government Regulation and Compliance
There are government regulations mandated by the U.S. Department of Transportation pertaining to battery safety, transportation of batteries, disposal of batteries and to some extent this also pertains super capacitors. We will comply with these regulations if we sell our supercapacitor into the U.S. market and have confidence that the ability to fully discharge our cells and their non-flammable, non-toxic electrolyte components will make this process more straightforward than for Lithium containing cells. Hybrid systems will, of course, comply fully with all applicable safety, transportation and disposal requirements. The license and sale of our super capacitor abroad may be the subject to export regulations in the future.
Employees
As of December 31, 2021, we employed approximately 11 employees, based primarily in our R&D Facility in Abingdon, Oxfordshire UK. Over 10 of those employees are engaged in research and development and related functions, and more than three quarters of these employees hold engineering and scientific degrees at postgraduate level.
We value diversity as a key enabler of novel thinking and recognize the importance of building a positive, inclusive culture to achieve a diverse and innovative workforce. Our human resource strategy is centered around the retention and development of employees which is necessary to achieve our stated aims.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings
Other than as described below, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our Company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our Company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our Company’s or our Company’s subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.
On February 9, 2021, the Company’s received notice of a ten-day temporary trading suspension from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The SEC’s release on February 9, 2021 cited questions regarding the accuracy and adequacy of information in the marketplace related to publicly available information concerning COUV including: (a) a statement made by COUV on December 1, 2020 that it is currently selling a mask proven to filter 98% of COVID-19 particles and is scientifically proven to kill COVID-19 particles; and (b) a statement made by COUV on December 16, 2020 that it has entered into a definitive letter of intent to acquire a company that holds 30 patents related to Carbon-Ion supercapacitor technology. The temporary trading suspension of our Common Stock commenced on February 10, 2021 and ended on February 24, 2021. Since that time, the OTC Markets Group has discontinued the public display of quotes for this security because it has been labeled “Caveat Emptor” (Buyer Beware). The OTC Markets Group designates certain securities as “Caveat Emptor” and places a skull and crossbones icon next to the stock symbol when there may be reason for investors to exercise additional caution and perform thorough due diligence before making an investment decision in that security. In addition, COUV is delinquent with its SEC reporting requirements. The OTC Markets Group will resume the public display quotes if they are able to confirm that the company is eligible to be designated as “Current Information” and believe that a public interest concern no longer exists. Investors are encouraged to use caution and due diligence in their investment decisions.
On October 13, 2020, we filed a Complaint in the United States District Court of Maryland (the “Court”) under Case No. 1:20-cv-02925-ELH against three corporate entities which are shareholders of the Company’s Common Stock, related to issuances of 56,666,660 common shares to them in 2010, by former management. On September 9, 2021 the Company was successful in this action and unauthorised shares issued were cancelled.
On October 28, 2020, we filed an Amended Complaint which added a fourth shareholder, who holds 10,000,000 shares of our Common Stock as a defendant. This case is now been moved over jurisdiction related issues and is now before the Courts in New York, pending resolution.

There was no stock price published until October 30, 2020 as a consequence of the business being not current with its filings until that date as per Form 1-U filed on relating to matters of the business dated July 15, 2020, a gap of some ten (10) years.
The ability of individual stockholders to trade their shares in a particular state may be subject to various rules and regulations of that state. A number of states require that an issuer’s securities be registered in their state or appropriately exempted from registration before the securities are permitted to trade in that state. Presently, we have no plans to register our securities in any particular state. Further, our shares may be subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act, commonly referred to as the “penny stock” rule. Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stocks and Rule 15g-9(d)(1) incorporates the definition of penny stock as that used in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act.
The SEC generally defines penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Rule 3a51-1 provides that any equity security is considered to be a penny stock unless that security is: registered and traded on a national securities exchange meeting specified criteria set by the SEC; authorized for quotation on The NASDAQ Stock Market; issued by a registered investment company; excluded from the definition on the basis of price (at least $5.00 per share) or the issuer’s net tangible assets; or exempted from the definition by the SEC. Broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally persons with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 by an individual, or $300,000 together with his or her spouse), are subject to additional sales practice requirements.
For transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and must have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction, of a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent to clients disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to trade and/or maintain a market in our common stock and may affect the ability of stockholders to sell their shares.
Shares sold pursuant to exemptions from registration are deemed to be “restricted” securities as defined by the Securities Act. As of December 31, 2021, out of a total of 2,500,000,000 shares authorized, 266,568,340 shares are issued as restricted securities and can only be sold or otherwise transferred pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an available exemption from registration. Of such restricted shares, 163,884,320 shares are held by affiliates (directors, officers and 5% holders), with the balance of restricted shares being held by non-affiliates.
In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned restricted shares of a reporting company for at least six months, including any person who may be deemed to be an “affiliate” of the company (as the term “affiliate” is defined under the Securities Act), is entitled to sell, within any three-month period, an amount of shares that does not exceed the greater of (i) the average weekly trading volume in the company’s common stock, as reported through the automated quotation system of a registered securities association, during the four calendar weeks preceding such sale or (ii) 1% of the shares then outstanding. In order for a stockholder to rely on Rule 144, adequate current public information with respect to the company must be available. A person who is not deemed to be an affiliate of the company and has not been an affiliate for the most recent three months, and who has held restricted shares for at least one year is entitled to sell such shares without regard to the various resale limitations under Rule 144. Under Rule 144, the requirements of paragraphs (c), (e), (f), and (h) of such Rule do not apply to restricted securities sold for the account of a person who is not an affiliate of an issuer at the time of the sale and has not been an affiliate during the preceding three months, provided the securities have been beneficially owned by the seller for a period of at least one year prior to their sale. For purposes of this registration statement, a controlling stockholder is considered to be a person who owns 10% or more of the company’s total outstanding shares, or is otherwise an affiliate of the Company. No individual person owning shares that are considered to be not restricted owns more than 10% of the Company’s total outstanding shares.
Holders
As of June 30, 2022 we had 254 shareholders of common stock per transfer agent’s shareholder list. There are over 7,900 Nominee shareholders of record held with their respective stockbrokers.
Dividends
The Company has not paid any cash dividends to date and does not anticipate or contemplate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. It is the present intention of management to utilize all available funds for the growth of the Registrant’s business.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
The Company has not yet adopted an equity compensation plan.

DESCRIPTION OF COMPANY
Carbon Ion is developing next generation supercapacitor technology aimed at the grid and other energy storage applications.
We see ‘Hybrid’ solutions, by combining the best in class battery solutions with super capacitors, as the way forward to deliver sustainable energy for the next three decades and a grid which is fit for the future. Super Capacitors are different but complimentary technology to batteries.
We are at the beginning of a forecasted once-in-a-century shift in moving away from fossil fuels to power our energy requirements across all demands for electricity.
For example, while current battery technology has demonstrated the benefits of EVs, principally in the premium passenger car market, there are fundamental limitations inhibiting widespread adoption of battery technology. They can catch fire easily, they use rare earth materials and have limited life span and the power delivery is compromised. They are not a universally applicable energy store.
Lamborghini recognised this in their recently launched supercar costing $3.5m the ‘Sian’ that has adopted regenerative braking using super capacitors as their first move to electric powertrains. Supercapacitors can deliver more power, more quickly than a battery solution. As part of the VW Group, Lamborghini elected to go a different route to the rest with their first ever hybrid car, and not follow the industry orthodoxy of a Lithium battery solution. As a result, we believe a hybrid solution using new super capacitor technology with complimentary battery technology represents the most promising path to unlock a mass market shift. A super capacitor can provide that immediate fast delivery (kick) mechanism and then once momentum and velocity is achieved the system moves over to battery power. In this way, the system can be better optimised for both cost and performance.
After 30 years of gradual improvements in conventional lithium-ion batteries we believe (like others in the industry) the market needs a step change in battery technology to make mass market EVs competitive with the fossil fuel alternative. We have gone, like Lamborghini’s terzo millenio does, down a direct route to achieve this goal.
We have spent the last decade developing a proprietary supercapacitor technology to meet this challenge. We believe that our technology enables a new category of supercapacitor that meets the requirements for broader market adoption. The Carbon-ion (C-ion) Super Capacitor technology that we are developing is being designed to offer greater energy density, , and safety when compared to today’s conventional super capacitors and longer life and faster charging than batteries.
We are focused on energy storage applications, which have a stringent set of requirements for super capacitor butour super capacitor technology also has applicability in other large and growing markets such as frequency response and fast recovery storage. Supercapacitors are best used when you need energy fast.
We will continue developing our C-ion super capacitor carbon-ion technology with the goal of beginning transfer to commercial production in the first half of 2025. We have evaluated each of the elements required for initial success and calculated the high performance which we expect from their combination. We are now working to combine and optimize all components of the cell. We will then further develop volume manufacturing processes to enable high volume manufacturing and minimize manufacturing costs.
We are looking to raise funds that will enable us to expand and accelerate research and development activities and undertake additional initiatives. As well as continuing to develop our scientific and engineering capabilities iat Milton Park Abingdon England, we will use third party pilot lines, to achieve our goal of being prepared to begin the transition to high volume manufacturing capability from 2025.
We intend to work closely with original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) to make our cells widely available over time. We recognize that our super capacitor technology has applicability in other large and growing markets including energy storage and other electricity grid type environments such a frequency response. We expect that the heavy transport industries such a shipping, trains, planes and nascent infrastructure charging will also feature.
Our technology enables a variety of business models. In addition to joint ventures, we may look to operate solely-owned manufacturing facilities or license technology to other manufacturers. Where appropriate, we may sell know how, electrodes or other subassemblies rather than complete super capacitor cells. We intend to continue to invest in research and development beyond Gen 4.0 to improve super capacitor cell performance, improve manufacturing processes, and reduce cost subject to having raised sufficient funds to do this.
Carbon-Ion was founded to develop a new class of energy storage device with considerable functional improvements over commercially available supercapacitors or ‘ultracapacitors’.
The C-Ion cell will provide specific power characteristics much higher than a Li-ion cell. It is designed to be classified as non-flammable and non-hazardous for transport, allowing the product to be shipped easily and to comply with both current and future regulations.
Due to the method of energy storage, the cell has fewer moving parts electrochemically and can go through significantly more charge/discharge cycles and/or operate for many years of normal use.
The C-Ion cell is being designed for manufacture using technologies well known in high volume manufacture. This will enable Carbon-Ion to quickly scale-up production. Carbon-ion allows new products to be made and extra functions to be added to existing products, for example:
·
Improved energy storage allows the cell to be used as the principal method of energy storage in a far wider range of technologies than conventional supercapacitors
·
High specific power allows very fast charging
·
High specific power enables the extension of Li-ion battery lifetimes and reduction in battery size through peak shaving in hybrid applications
·
Improved safety protects customers, allows easy shipping and opens up applications in hazardous areas
·
Long cycle life allows energy storage to be installed for the entire lifetime of the device, reducing design complexity, eliminating service intervals and saving money
Critical Accounting Policies
Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. Certain of our accounting policies require the application of significant judgment by our management, and such judgments are reflected in the amounts reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements. In applying these policies, our management uses judgment to determine the appropriate assumptions to be used in the determination of estimates. Those estimates are based on our historical experience, terms of existing contracts, our observance of market trends, information provided by our strategic partners and information available from other outside sources, as appropriate. Actual results may differ significantly from the estimates contained in our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Results of Operations
Twelve Months Ended December 31, 2021 vs. December 31, 2020
Revenues
Revenues for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 were $0 as compared with $0 for the comparable prior year period, a change of $0, or 0%. The lack of revenue is due to the fact that the Company did not generate any sales in 2021 and 2020 from its supercapacitor technology.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 were $3,066,229 as compared with $476,746 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $2,589,483. The increase in operating expenses is due to the recommencement of business operations in 2021 following a period in which the Company was dormant under prior management, resulting in a $537,005 increase in officers’ salaries, a $1,167,016 increase in salaries and wages, $150,706 increase in payroll taxes, $627,142 increase in legal and professional fees, and an $107,614 increase in general and administrative expenses compared to the comparable prior year period.
Operating Loss
The net operating loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 was $3,066,229 as compared with $476,746 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $2,589,483. The increase in net operating loss is primarily due to the increase in operating expenses recorded in the current period due to the commencement of operations in 2021 compared to the comparable prior year period.
Other Income (Expenses)
Our other income (expenses) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 was $51,693 as compared to ($34,418) for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, an increase of $86,111. This change was primarily related to settling the ZapGo rent obligation in 2021 for $121,718.
Income Tax Credits
Income tax credits for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 were $437,994 as compared to $146,408 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, an increase of $291,586. These credits are R&D tax credits allowed in the UK for certain payroll and related costs incurred by Oxion. The credit for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 is significantly less than the credit for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 because payroll in the UK did not start until September 1, 2020.
Net Loss
Our net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 was $2,576,542 as compared with $364,756 for the comparable prior year period, an increase of $2,211,786. The increase in net operating loss is primarily due to the increase in operating expenses recorded in the current period due to the commencement of operations in 2021 compared to the comparable prior year period.

Future Capital Requirements
Our capital requirements for 2022 will depend on numerous factors, including management’s evaluation of the timing of projects to pursue. Subject to our ability to generate revenues and cash flow from operations and our ability to raise additional capital (including through possible joint ventures, acquisitions, and/or partnerships), we expect to incur substantial expenditures to carry out our business plan, as well as costs associated with our capital raising efforts and being a public company.
The sale of additional equity or debt securities may result in additional dilution to our shareholders Any such required additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all. If we were unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of, delay or eliminate some or all of our planned activities and limit our operations which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Inflation
The amounts presented in our consolidated financial statements do not provide for the effect of inflation on our operations or financial position. The net operating losses shown would be greater than reported if the effects of inflation were reflected either by charging operations with amounts that represent replacement costs or by using other inflation adjustments.

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Going Concern
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive activities. For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Corporate Universe, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Corporate Universe, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3, the Company has incurred operating losses and has no product sales. These factors, and the need for additional financing in order for the Company to meet its business plans raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our 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 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 financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
As described in Note 1 to the Company’s financial statements, when facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of the carrying value by preparing estimates of revenues and the resulting gross profit and cash flows. If the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds fair value.
We identified the Company’s application of impairment of long-lived assets as a critical audit matter. The principal considerations for our determination of this critical audit matter related to the high degree of subjectivity in the Company’s judgments in determining the qualitative factors. Auditing these judgments and assumptions by the Company involves auditor judgment due to the nature and extent of audit evidence and effort required to address these matters.
The primary procedures we performed to address these critical audit matters included the following:
·
We obtained management’s impairment analysis on the intangibles and performed the following procedures:
-
Reviewed the analysis.
-
Tested supporting documentation related to management’s conclusion that the expected future cash flows is greater than the carrying value.
-
Assessed the assumptions used by management and evaluated the appropriateness of management’s application of their accounting policies, along with their use of estimates, in the determination of whether an impairment exists.
Accounting for Business Combination
Effective November 16, 2021, Corporate Universe, Inc. merged with Carbon Ion Energy, Inc. We identified the application of acquisition method of accounting as a critical audit matter due to the complex accounting and reporting standards related to the transaction, and the estimates and assumptions used by management in determining the proper allocation of the consideration given to the assets acquired including identified intangible assets.
The primary procedures we performed to address these critical audit matters included the following:
·
We obtained and reviewed the merger agreement and other documents to evaluate the Company’s application of relevant accounting standards to the transaction.
·
We evaluated the reasonableness of the valuation model and methodologies used to arrive at the value applied to acquired assets to include identified intangible assets of the Company.
·
We evaluated the accuracy and completeness of the Company’s presentation of the acquisition in the financial statements, including evaluating whether disclosures were in accordance with relevant accounting standards.
·
Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were utilized by the Firm to assist in the evaluation of the Company’s accounting treatment for the acquisition.
/s/ Accell Audit & Compliance, P.A.
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2021.

Corporate Universe, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For The Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020
(1) Organization and Business Description
Corporate Universe, Inc. ("COUV”) was incorporated in Delaware on May 28, 1986. On July 17, 2020, the Company changed its name from Carrier Alliance Group Inc. to Corporate Universe, Inc.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include COUV and its wholly-owned subsidiary Carbon-Ion Energy, Inc. (“CIE”), which includes its wholly owned subsidiary Oxcion Limited (“OXC”) (collectively, the “Company”).
CIE was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on December 29, 2020 and operates as a holding company for OXC, which was incorporated under the laws of England and Wales on February 20, 2009. OXC operated as a business consulting entity until December 31, 2020. Effective March 11, 2021, OXC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of CIE pursuant to a share exchange agreement (see Note 12) whereby the existing stockholders of OXC received the same pro-rata equity interests in CIE. Going forward, OXC plans to market its patented super capacitor technology to customers worldwide.
Effective November 12, 2021, CIE became a wholly-owned subsidiary of COUV pursuant to a share exchange agreement (see Note 12) whereby the existing stockholders of CIE obtained control of COUV. The transaction was accounted for as a change in control with COUV being considered the accounting acquired company and CIE being considered the accounting acquirer. The fiscal year end of the consolidated Company is December 31st.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
For financial statement presentation purposes, the Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Inventory
Inventory, which consists substantially of raw materials, is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market (net realizable value). The inventory is valued at the end of each fiscal for the purpose of determining if a reserve for obsolescence needs to be recorded. There is no reserve for obsolescence as of December 31, 2021 or 2020.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is stated at cost. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Upon sale or disposition of assets, any gain or loss is included in the statement of operations. The cost of property and equipment is depreciated using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets when placed in service, which range from three to seven years.
Income Taxes
The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Account Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed annually from differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of general and administrative expenses. The Company’s federal tax return and any state tax returns are not currently under examination.
OXC accrues research and development (“R&D”) tax credits payable by the HM Revenue and Custioms (“HMRC”) in England based on 14.50% of qualified R&D payroll costs. OXC, at it’s sole dicretion, can elect to forego the tax credit and carryforward the qualified R&D payroll costs to offset future taxable incone in the England.
Intellectual Property
The Company’s intangible assets consist of patents on its technology, recorded at cost. Cost is based on third party expenditures for patent acquisitions and applications. OXC will begin amortizing the intangibles over their estimated remaining useful life when it begins revenue-producing activities. OXC will determine the useful lives of its intangible assets after considering the specific facts and circumstances related to each intangible asset. Factors that will be considered when determining useful lives include the contractual term of any agreement related to the asset, the historical performance of the asset, the long-term strategy for using the asset, any laws or other local regulations that could impact the useful life of the asset, and other economic factors, including competition and specific market conditions.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
Potential impairments of long-lived assets are reviewed when events or changes in circumstances indicate a potential impairment may exist. In accordance with ASC 360-10, “Property, Plant and Equipment - Overall,” impairment is determined when estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with an asset are less than the asset’s carrying value.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606, “Revenue from contracts with customers.” Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The amount of revenue that is recorded reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods. The Company applies the following five-step model in order to determine this amount: (i) identification of the promised goods in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. Once a contract is determined to be within the scope of FASB ASC 606 at contract inception, the Company reviews the contract to determine which performance obligations the Company must deliver and which of these performance obligations are distinct. The Company expects to recognize revenues as the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when the performance obligation is satisfied or as it is satisfied.
Stock Based Compensation Expense
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Accounting for Stock Compensation,” which establishes accounting standards for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. In accordance with guidance provided under ASC Topic 718, the Company recognizes an expense for the fair value of its stock awards at the time of grant and the fair value of its outstanding stock options as they vest, whether held by employees or others. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, there were no options outstanding.
Convertible Debentures
If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provide for a rate of conversion that is below market value at issuance, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature ("BCF"). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to FASB ASC 470-20 "Debt with Conversion and Other Options". In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF, and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense, over the life of the debt. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020 there were no convertible debentures outstanding and $99,265 of convertible debentures outstanding, respectively.
Leases
The Company accounts for leases in accordance with FASB ASC 842, “Leases”. Based on this standard, the Company determines if an agreement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease - right to use, current portion of operating lease liability, and operating lease liability, less current portion in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property, plant and equipment, net, current portion in long-term debt, net and long-term debt, less current portion and debt issuance costs in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
As permitted under FASB ASC 842, the Company has made an accounting policy election not to apply the recognition provisions to short term leases (leases with a lease term of 12 months or less that do not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise); instead, the Company will recognize the lease payments for short term leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company did not have any short-term leases at December 31, 2021 and 2020.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities of CIE’s U.K. subsidiary are translated from pounds sterling to United States dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the year. The translation adjustment for the reporting period is included in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, and the cumulative effect of these adjustments are reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as a cumulative translation adjustment within stockholders’ deficit.
Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
The Company computes loss per common share, in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share”, which requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, plus the issuance of common shares, if dilutive, that could result from the exercise of outstanding stock options, warrants and convertible preferred stock.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the consolidated financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
(3) Going Concern
As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company has accumulated operating losses of $2,976,773 and $400,231, respectively, has yet to commence operations and has no product sales related to its patented battery storage technology that was acquired on September 11, 2020, all of which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. However, the Company is currently addressing its liquidity issues by continually seeking investment capital through private placement of common stock and debt. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete any additional sales of equity securities or be able to arrange for other financing to fund planned business activities.
(4) Property and Equipment
Property and equipment consisted of the following at December 31:
Laboratory equipment
$ 171,801
$ 174,263
Other equipment
15,355
-
Total
$ 187,156
$ 174,263
Property and equipment has not been placed in service and, as such, there was no depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.
(5) Intellectual Property
Intellectual property at December 31, 2021 and 2020, in the amounts of $613,024 and $347,063, respectively, are net of a $34,114 impairment that was recorded at December 31, 2020. The intellectual property includes various super capacitor technology patents that were acquired on September 11, 2020 for $309,783 as part of the ZapCo Ltd (“ZapCo”) acquisition, plus $337,458 of legal fees subsequently incurred directly related to these patents and additional patent applications. The balance due ZapCo as of December 31, 2020 was $191,268, which was paid in the first quarter of 2021. The Company has deferred amortizing the intellectual property until it begins revenue operations in order to more accurately match the expense with the revenue. As such, there was no amortization expense for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.
(6) Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Operating Lease Liabilities
OXC entered into two third-party lease agreements for laboratory equipment. Both leases commenced on May 5, 2021, with one going through April 5, 2023 and the other through May 5, 2023, with monthly rental payment of $1,221 and $605, respectively.
In July 2021, OXC executed a thirty-six month non-cancellable operating lease for laboratory equipment. Monthly payments are approximately $4,600, including VAT, beginning August 1, 2021 through July 31, 2024.
On August 2, 2021, OXC entered into a five year non-cancellable operating lease for laboratory space in Oxfordshire, England. The cost of this space is an average monthly rent of approximately $8,500 over the lease term, including VAT, plus utilities and a pro- rated share of any joint charges as reasonably determined by the landlord.
Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at the present value of the future lease payments at the lease commencement date. The interest rate used to determine the present value is the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, estimated to be 10%, as the interest rate implicit in most of the Company’s leases is not readily determinable. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded $78,816 as operating lease expense for these four leases, which is included in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Right-of-use assets as of December 31, 2021 are summarized as follows:

In accordance with FASB ASC 805, “Business Combinations” and FASB ASC 250, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections”, when an accounting change results in financial statements that are, in effect, the statements of a different reporting entity, the change shall be retrospectively applied to the financial statements of all prior periods presented to show financial information for the new reporting entity for those periods. The financial statements of the receiving entity shall report results of operations for the period in which the transfer occurs as though the transfer of net assets or exchange of equity interests had occurred at the beginning of the period. Results of operations for that period will thus comprise those of the previously separate entities combined from the beginning of the period to the date the transfer is completed and those of the combined operations from that date to the end of the period.

The Company has evaluated each series of the Preferred Stock for proper classification under FASB ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” and FASB ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”.
FASB ASC 480 generally requires liability classification for financial instruments that are certain to be redeemed, represent obligations to purchase shares of stock or represent obligations to issue a variable number of common shares. The Company concluded that each series of Preferred Stock was not within the scope of ASC 480 because none of the three conditions for liability classification was present.
FASB ASC 815 generally requires an analysis of embedded terms and features that have characteristics of derivatives to be evaluated for bifurcation and separate accounting in instances where their economic risks and characteristics are not clearly and closely related to the risks of the host contract. However, in order to perform this analysis, the Company was first required to evaluate the economic risks and characteristics of each series of the Preferred Stock in its entirety as being either akin to equity or akin to debt. The Company’s evaluation concluded that each series of Preferred Stock was more akin to an equity-like contract largely due to the fact the financial instrument is not mandatorily redeemable for cash and the holders are not entitled to any dividends. Other features of the Preferred Stock that operate like equity, such as the conversion option and voting feature, afforded more evidence, in the Company’s view, that the instrument is more akin to equity. As a result, the embedded conversion features are clearly and closely related to their equity host instruments. Therefore, the embedded conversion features do not require bifurcation and classification as derivative liabilities.
(14) Income Taxes
The Company adopted the provisions of uncertain tax positions as addressed in FASB ASC 740-10-65-1. As a result of the implementation of FASB ASC 740-10-65-1, the Company recognized no increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of $3,576,430 that may be available to reduce future years’ taxable income in varying amounts through 2036. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses have not been recognized in these consolidated financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and, accordingly, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax asset relating to these tax loss carry-forwards of approximately $750,000 and $115,000 as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The Company periodically evaluates the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets, and adjusts the carrying amount of the deferred tax assets by the valuation allowance to the extent the future realization of the deferred tax assets is not judged to be more likely than not. The Company considers many factors when assessing the likelihood of future realization of its deferred tax assets, including its recent cumulative earnings experience by taxing jurisdiction, expectations of future taxable income or loss, the carryforward periods available to the Company for tax reporting purposes, and other relevant factors.
Future changes in the unrecognized tax benefit will have no impact on the effective tax rate due to the existence of the valuation allowance. The Company estimates that the unrecognized tax benefit will not change significantly within the next twelve months. The Company will continue to classify income tax penalties and interest as part of general and administrative expense in its consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. There were no interest or penalties accrued as of December 31, 2021 or 2020.
The R&D income tax credits for the year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $437,994 and $146,408, respectively. The balance due from the HMRC for these R&D income tax credits as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $590,132 and $148,955, respectively.
(15) Commitments and Contingencies
During the normal course of business, the Company may be exposed to litigation. When the Company becomes aware of potential litigation, it evaluates the merits of the case in accordance with FASB ASC 450-20-50, “Contingencies”. The Company evaluates its exposure to the matter, possible legal or settlement strategies and the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome. If the Company determines that an unfavorable outcome is probable and can be reasonably estimated, it establishes the necessary accruals. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company is not aware of any contingent liabilities that should be reflected in the consolidated financial statements.
On March 31, 2021, CIE entered into an employment agreement with the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), who is also a director, for an initial term of one year with a base salary of $465,000 per annum paid in equal monthly installments, less applicable withholdings and deductions as required by law. The Company shall review the base salary on an annual basis and has the right, but not the obligation to increase it, but has no right to decrease the base salary. This agreement automatically extends for additional terms of one year unless either party gives at least six months prior written notice of non- renewal during the initial term or the then current renewal term. In addition, the CEO is entitled to receive an annual bonus up to $400,000 if the Company meets or exceeds criteria adopted by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors on an annual basis.

The Company is also obligated to increase the base salary on an annual basis between $15,000 and $30,000 at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The CFO is also entitled to receive a car allowance of $1,000 per month and five weeks paid vacation per year. This agreement automatically extends for additional terms of one year unless either party gives at least six months prior written notice of non-renewal during the initial term or the then current renewal term. In addition, the CFO is entitled to receive a bonus determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors on an annual basis.

The Company maintains cash balances in interest and non-interest bearing bank accounts, none of which exceeded federally insured limits as of December 31, 2021 or 2020. The Company has not experienced any losses in any of its accounts and management believes not to be exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for maintaining disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Registrant files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. In addition, the disclosure controls and procedures must ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial and other required disclosures.
At December 31, 2021, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Exchange Act) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of Andrew Sispoidis our Chief Executive Officer and Adrian Jones our Chief Financial Officer. Based on his evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that at December 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting discussed directly below.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; (iii) provide reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and (iv) provide reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Because of its inherent limitations, 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 because changes in conditions may occur or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management has conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of Andrew Sispoidis our Chief Executive Officer and Adrian Jones our Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021. This evaluation was based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO, Internal Control-Integrated Framework.
This Report shall not be deemed to be filed for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and is not incorporated by reference into any filing of the Registrant, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. The rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission do not require an attestation of the Management's report by our registered public accounting firm in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Controls
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

On November 2, 2020 and subsequently amended on December 1, 2020, the Company entered into a Share Exchange agreement to acquire 1,000,000 Shares of Medicevo Corporation (“Medicevo”), a Delaware Corporation, from its shareholder, for $150,000 in cash invested in Medicevo and 15,600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $280,800 to Medicevo’s shareholder. Medicevo’s majority shareholder was beneficially controlled by Isaac H. Sutton (“Sutton”), the Company’s former CEO. The Company had recorded the Investment in Medicevo in the amount of $430,800 as a non-current asset on the balance sheet of December 31, 2020 and accounted for the investment under the cost method, which requires a periodic assessment for impairment.
