ITEM 1. BUSINESS
ITEM 1 - BUSINESS
Our Historical Nestbuilder Business
Prior to our merger with Renewable Innovations, Inc., a Delaware corporation, we were engaged in the business of providing digital media and marketing services for the real estate industry. We generated revenue from service fees (video creation and production and referral fees from our LoseTheAgent.com website). At the core of our programs was our proprietary video creation technology which allowed for an automated conversion of data (text, video slices and pictures of home listings) to a video with voice over and music. We provided video search, storage and marketing capabilities on multiple platform dynamics for web and mobile. Once a home, personal or community video was created using our proprietary technology, it could be published to social media, email or distributed to multiple real estate websites.
In addition, we owned and operated the web site LoseTheAgent.com, which was a site dedicated to peer-to-peer real estate transactions between home sellers and buyers - the so called For Sale By Owner segment. We had as many as 100,000 home listings across all 50 states. We monetized the website by charging fees for both listing a home for sale and picking up possible buyers’ messages of interest.
We discontinued the historical business of Nestbuilder.com on February 28, 2023.
Corporate History
We were incorporated on June 28, 2019 and commenced operations in 2021.
On December 1, 2022, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, we were acquired by Nestbuilder.com Corp through the merger of NB Merger Corp. with and into Renewable Innovations, Inc., with Renewable Innovations, Inc. continuing as the surviving wholly owned subsidiary of Nestbuilder.com Corp. Renewable Innovations, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the wholly owned subsidiary), changed its name to Renewable Innovations Corp., and Nestbuilder.com Corp (the parent corporation) changed its name to Renewable Innovations, Inc.
Overview
We are focused on designing, optimizing, developing, and producing modular, scalable, zero-carbon green renewable solutions. Applications for scalable power vary from primary power to emergency power and mobile power.
Our initial focus is on mobile and stationary electric vehicle rapid charging.
We leverage our deep engineering expertise, history in power, and market vision and combine those with industry leaders through collaboration agreements for best product, best price, and best availability One example of this is our collaboration agreement with General Motors (“GM”) for its fuel cells and batteries.
Our expertise and leadership experience in the industry began in 2014 when we began developing polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells for datacenter backup power. This collaboration was with Daimler, Hewlett Packard Enterprises (HPE), and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
In 2017, a fuel cell system was installed at NREL and demonstrated to attendees during the Super Computing Show held in Denver that year. In 2019 and 2020 full load testing and validation of 250 kilowatt (“kW”) fuel cells were performed over 24- and 48-hour non-stop runs with Microsoft. The tests were considered successful and began an evolution for others to explore this solution.
We are focused on taking advantage of the projected growth of the hydrogen market by continuing to design and build stationary power systems using hydrogen fuel cells. Our first product, the “MEC-H” (Mobile Energy Command-Hydrogen) has been tested in multiple commercial applications including the Rebelle Rally in October 2021 when the product was used to power the all-women’s race in the deserts of Nevada and California. See (www.rebellerally.com).
The Market
In the past, the technology wasn’t quite ready, or people were not serious enough about decarbonization. We don’t believe that those barriers exist today. With the barriers removed, we believe the hydrogen economy will enter into a renaissance in the 2020s and will create an $11 trillion hydrogen market in the coming decades1.
Despite its series of false starts over the past 50 years, hydrogen is finally coming into its own global adoption as the fuel of the future. We believe four factors are relevant to this change:
● we believe any power source made with hydrogen will be infinitely more energy-dense than a power source made with something else; and
● the politics have changed:
○ President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act into law, which includes nearly $400 billion in energy and climate spending. A significant bulk of that will go toward clean hydrogen production;
○ The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law includes $9.5 Billion in clean hydrogen initiatives;
● hydrogen is now produced cost-effectively from renewable energy sources like solar and wind instead of natural gas. Economies of scale and advanced tech have led hydrogen fuel cell costs to drop 60% over the past decade. Deloitte expects those costs to drop below electric battery and combustion engine costs in just a few years.
● the technology has changed. Technological breakthroughs and falling renewable energy expenses have led to a new era of scalable “Green Hydrogen” production.
We are accelerating the growth and opportunities within the renewable economy. Our team brings experience and connections across the sector.

Intellectual Property Rights
We have developed significant intellectual and proprietary technologies for the renewable industry; however, we do not own any patents or trademarks. We use the following methods to protect our intellectual property:
Copyright Protection
Copyright law protects the source and object code of software and ensures exclusive rights. Copyright protection arises automatically upon the creation of an original work of authorship. The duration of a copyright is the author’s life plus fifty years. We have common law copyright protection of our designs.
Trade Secret Protection
We choose to protect many of the ideas and concepts behind our product offerings as trade secrets.
From time to time, we may encounter disputes over rights and obligations concerning intellectual property. While we believe that our product and service offerings do not infringe the intellectual property rights of any third party, we cannot assure you that we will prevail in any intellectual property dispute. If we do not prevail in such disputes, we may lose some or all of our intellectual property protection, be enjoined from further sales of the applications determined to infringe the rights of others, and/or be forced to pay substantial royalties to a third party.
Governmental Controls, Approval and Licensing Requirements
Our products are subject to international, federal, state, and local requirements in accordance with statutes and ordinances relating to, among others, building codes, fire codes, public safety, electrical codes, etc. The level of regulation varies based on location.
Safety standards have been established by the American National Standards Institute (“ANSI”), covering the overall fuel cell system, however additional safety practices are being refined and defined by organizations such as the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), Center for Hydrogen Safety (CHS), National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), and the International Fire Code (IFC). Our products are designed to meet and exceed all applicable safety standards.
Competition
The U.S. power grid is not capable of providing sufficient power or available to charge the electric vehicles that are coming to market. Power sources independent from the gird will be needed. Hydrogen is one source of power capable of providing large amounts of power for charging these vehicles.
Stationary and primary power is also another significant marked for fuel cells systems. Applications range from large data centers and corporate facilities, to smaller mobile and emergency services. Although there is more competition arising in these areas, we feel we have a lead in these applications.
There are multiple PEM fuel cell manufactures in the world, including General Motors, Toyota, Hyundai, Honda, Ballard, PLUG Power, Fuel Cell Energy, to name a few. Most manufacturers typically do not do integration. Some automotive manufacturers will install versions of their fuel cells systems in certain vehicles, others will contract or partner with other companies to integrate their fuel cells into vehicles.
We believe the principal competitive factors in the markets in which we operate will include product features relative to price and performance, lifetime operating cost, including any maintenance and support, product quality and reliability, safety, ease of use, footprint, rapid integration with existing equipment and processes as well as service and support and corporate reputation.
Employees
We currently employ between 30 and 50 personnel which is comprised of full time, part time and contract personnel.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
ITEM 1A. - RISK FACTORS.
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide a statement of risk factors. Nonetheless, we are voluntarily providing risk factors herein.
Any investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the following information, together with the other information contained in this Annual Report, before you decide to buy our common stock. If one or more of the following events actually occurs, our business will suffer, and as a result our financial condition or results of operations will be adversely affected. In this case, the market price, if any, of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment in our common stock.
We face risks in developing our product candidates and services and eventually bringing them to market. We also face risks that our business model may become obsolete. The following risks are material risks that we face. If any of these risks occur, our business, our ability to achieve revenues, our operating results and our financial condition could be seriously harmed.
Risk Factors Related to the Business of the Company
A. Business Risks
We have a limited operating history and no historical financial information upon which you may evaluate our performance.
We were incorporated in Delaware in June 2019 and are still in our earlier stages of development. You should consider our prospects for success in light of the associated risks and uncertainties. Unanticipated problems, expenses, and delays are frequently encountered in newer businesses, such as ours, and in developing new products and services. These include, but are not limited to, inadequate funding, lack of consumer acceptance, competition, product development, onerous or problematic terms under licensing and other agreements, and inadequate marketing and sales. We may not successfully address these risks and uncertainties or successfully implement our existing and new products and services. The failure by us to meet any of these and other risks or uncertainties could have a materially adverse effect upon us and may force us to reduce or curtail operations. No assurance can be given that we can or will ever operate profitably.
We will need additional funding in the future, and if we are unable to raise capital when needed, we may be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate products, programs, commercial efforts, or sales efforts. Developing products and marketing developed products is costly. We will need to raise substantial additional capital in the future in order to execute our business plan and help us and our collaboration partners fund the development and commercialization of our products.
We intend to finance future cash needs through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, or strategic collaboration and licensing or royalty arrangements. Our stockholders may consequently experience additional dilution, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants and high interest. Regarding accessing additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our products, processes and technologies or to grant licenses on terms not necessarily favorable to us. If adequate funds are not available from the foregoing sources, we may consider additional strategic financing options, including sales of assets, or we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of our research or development programs, or curtail some of our commercialization efforts of our operations. We may seek to access the public or private equity markets whenever conditions are favorable, even if we do not have an immediate need for additional capital.
If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel, we may not be able to effectively compete in our market.
Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to attract and retain key management beyond what we have today. We will attempt to enhance our management and technical expertise by recruiting qualified individuals with desired skills and experience in certain targeted areas. An inability to retain employees and to attract or recruit and keep sufficient additional employees could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows, as well as limit or delay our ability to develop and market our products.
We may not be able to effectively manage our growth and operations, which could materially and adversely affect our business.
We may experience rapid growth and development in a relatively short time span through our marketing efforts. The management of this growth will require, among other things, continued development of our financial and management controls and management information systems, stringent control of costs, increased marketing activities, the ability to attract and retain qualified management personnel, and the training of new personnel. We intend to hire additional personnel in order to manage our expected growth and expansion. Failure to successfully manage our possible growth and development could have a material adverse effect on our business and the value of our common stock.
We may be unable to adequately protect or defend our intellectual property rights.
Our ability to compete partly depends on the superiority, uniqueness, and value of our intellectual property and technology, held directly or under license or royalty agreements with third parties. To protect our proprietary rights, we will rely on a combination of copyright and trade secret laws, confidentiality agreements with our employees and third parties, and protective contractual provisions. However, we may be forced to litigate to defend our intellectual property rights, or to defend against claims by third parties against us relating to intellectual property rights, which could be very costly and might negatively distract management from concentrating on operating the business.
The regulatory environment in our business space is complex, rapidly changing, and difficult to predict.
Investors should be aware that state and federal regulations in our business space are complex, and sometimes contradictory or inconsistent as between federal and state, or state to state regulations. However, positive changes have occurred in this industry in recent years, and it can be reasonably expected that the regulatory environment will continue to evolve in favorable way. A change in administrations on the federal level may result in significant changes in federal regulations and related enforcement, which could portend difficulties in planning and predicting future events. We might also encounter certain obstacles in implementing our business plan that include but are not limited to insurance issues. We intend to comply at all times and to the extent practicable with applicable regulations, but recognize that it may be difficult to always know what the regulatory requirements are, or whether or when such requirements will change.
B. Market Risks
Rising inflation rates, volatility in commodity prices and product shortages may adversely affect our financial results.
Some of our products contain commodity-priced materials. Commodity prices and supply levels affect our costs. These resources may become increasingly difficult to source due to various cost, geopolitical, or other reasons, which in turn might have a material adverse effect on our business.
Global inflationary pressures, particularly in the United States, have increased recently to levels not seen in recent years, which could potentially increase commodity price volatility, increased operating costs (including our labor costs) and reduced liquidity. In addition, the United States Federal Reserve has raised, and may again raise, interest rates in response to concerns about inflation, which may result in limitations on our ability to access credit or otherwise raise debt and equity capital. Our ability to pass on such increases in costs in a timely manner depends on market conditions, and the inability to pass along cost increases could result in lower gross margins. Increases in interest rates, especially if coupled with reduced government spending and volatility in financial markets, may have the effect of further increasing economic uncertainty and heightening these risks. In an inflationary environment, we may be unable to raise the sales prices of our products and services at or above the rate at which our costs increase, which could reduce our profit margins and have a material adverse effect on our financial results. We also may experience lower than expected sales and potential adverse impacts on our competitive position if there is a decrease in consumer spending or a negative reaction to our pricing. A reduction in our revenue would be detrimental to our financial condition and could also have an adverse impact on our future growth.
The current economic downturn and weakness in the economy, market trends and other conditions affecting the profitability and financial stability of our customers could negatively impact our sales growth and results of operations.
The demand for our products and services is sensitive to the production activity, capital spending and demand for products and services of our customers. In recent months, we have observed increased economic uncertainty in the United States and abroad. Impacts of such economic weakness include falling overall demand for goods and services, leading to reduced profitability, reduced credit availability, higher borrowing costs, reduced liquidity, volatility in credit, equity and foreign exchange markets, and bankruptcies. These developments could lead to supply chain disruption, inflation, higher interest rates, and uncertainty about business continuity, which may adversely affect our business and our results of operations. As our customers react to global economic conditions and the potential for a global recession, we may see them reduce spending on our products and take additional precautionary measures to limit or delay expenditures and preserve capital and liquidity. Reductions in spending on our solutions, delays in purchasing decisions, lack of renewals, inability to attract new customers, as well as pressure for extended billing terms or pricing discounts, would limit our ability to grow our business and negatively affect our operating results and financial condition.
Additionally, many of our customers operate in markets that may be impacted by market uncertainty, trade and tariff policies, costs of goods sold, currency exchange rates, central bank interest rate changes, foreign competition, offshoring of production, oil and natural gas prices, geopolitical developments, labor shortages, inflation, and a variety of other factors beyond our control. Any of these factors could cause customers to idle or close facilities, delay purchases, reduce production levels, or experience reductions in the demand for their own products or services. We have from time-to-time experienced labor shortages and other labor-related issues. Labor shortages have become more pronounced as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. For example, labor shortages might affect our ability to attain qualified candidates for certain positions within the Company.
Our products and performance depend largely on the availability of hydrogen gas and an insufficient supply of hydrogen could negatively affect our sales and deployment of our products and services.
Our products and services depend largely on the availability of hydrogen gas. We are dependent upon hydrogen suppliers for success with the profitable commercialization of our products and services. If these fuels are not readily available or if their prices are such that energy produced by our products costs more than energy provided by other sources, then our products could be less attractive to potential users and our products’ value proposition could be negatively affected. If hydrogen suppliers elect not to participate in the material handling market, there may be an insufficient supply of hydrogen for this market that could negatively affect our sales and deployment of our products and services.
We will continue to be dependent on certain third-party key suppliers for components in our products. The failure of a supplier to develop and supply components in a timely manner or at all, or our inability to obtain substitute sources of these components on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to us, could impair our ability to manufacture our products or could increase our cost of production.
We rely on certain key suppliers for critical components in our products, and there are numerous other components for our products that are sole sourced. If we fail to maintain our relationships with our suppliers or build relationships with new suppliers, or if suppliers are unable to meet our demand, we may be unable to manufacture our products, or our products may be available only at a higher cost or after a delay. In addition, to the extent that our supply partners use technology or manufacturing processes that are proprietary, we may be unable to obtain comparable components from alternative sources.
The failure of a supplier to develop and supply components in a timely manner or at all, or to develop or supply components that meet our quality, quantity and cost requirements, or our inability to obtain substitute sources of these components on a timely basis or on terms acceptable to us, could impair our ability to manufacture our products or could increase our cost of production. If we cannot obtain substitute materials or components on a timely basis or on acceptable terms, we could be prevented from delivering our products to our customers within required timeframes. Any such delays could result in sales and installation delays, cancellations, penalty payments or loss of revenue and market share, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We depend on a concentration of anchor customers for the majority of our revenues and the loss of any of these customers would adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
We sell most of our products to a few anchor customers, and while we are continually seeking to expand our customer base, we expect this will continue for the next several years. Any decline in business with significant customers could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Our future success is dependent upon the continued purchases of our products by a small number of customers. If we are unable to broaden our customer base and expand relationships with potential customers, our business will continue to be impacted by demand fluctuations due to our dependence on a small number of customers. Demand fluctuations can have a negative impact on our revenues, business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Our dependence on a small number of major customers exposes us to additional risks. A slowdown, delay or reduction in a customer’s orders could result in excess inventories or unexpected quarterly fluctuations in our operating results and liquidity. Each of our major customers has significant purchasing leverage over us to require changes in sales terms including pricing, payment terms and product delivery schedules, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Volatility in commodity prices and product shortages may adversely affect our gross margins.
Some of our products contain commodity-priced materials. Commodity prices and supply levels affect our costs. Any shortages could adversely affect our ability to produce commercially viable fuel cell systems and significantly raise our cost of producing our fuel cell systems. While we do not anticipate significant near- or long-term shortages in the supply of platinum, a shortage could adversely affect our ability to produce commercially viable fuel cells or raise our cost of producing such products. Our ability to pass on such increases in costs in a timely manner depends on market conditions, and the inability to pass along cost increases could result in lower gross margins.
Our ability to source parts and raw materials from our suppliers could be disrupted or delayed in our supply chain which could adversely affect our results of operations.
Our operations require significant amounts of necessary parts and raw materials. We deploy a continuous, companywide process to source our parts and raw materials from fewer suppliers, and to obtain parts from suppliers in low-cost countries where possible. If we are unable to source these parts or raw materials, our operations may be disrupted, or we could experience a delay or halt in certain of our manufacturing operations. We believe that our supply management and production practices are based on an appropriate balancing of the foreseeable risks and the costs of alternative practices. Nonetheless, reduced availability or interruption in supplies, whether resulting from more stringent regulatory requirements, supplier financial condition, increases in duties and tariff costs, disruptions in transportation, an outbreak of a severe public health pandemic, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, severe weather, or the occurrence or threat of wars or other conflicts, could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Weakness in the economy, market trends and other conditions affecting the profitability and financial stability of our customers could negatively impact our sales growth and results of operations.
The demand for our products and services is sensitive to the production activity, capital spending and demand for products and services of our customers. Many of our customers operate in markets that are subject to cyclical fluctuations resulting from market uncertainty, trade and tariff policies, costs of goods sold, currency exchange rates, central bank interest rate changes, foreign competition, offshoring of production, oil and natural gas prices, geopolitical developments, labor shortages, inflation, deflation, and a variety of other factors beyond our control. Any of these factors could cause customers to idle or close facilities, delay purchases, reduce production levels, or experience reductions in the demand for their own products or services.
Any of these events could also reduce the volume of products and services these customers purchase from us or impair the ability of our customers to make full and timely payments and could cause increased pressure on our selling prices and terms of sale. Accordingly, a significant or prolonged slowdown in activity in the United States or any other major world economy, or a segment of any such economy, could negatively impact our sales growth and results of operations.
We face risks associated with our plans to market, distribute and service our products and services internationally.
We have begun to market our product offerings internationally. We have limited experience operating internationally, including developing and manufacturing our products to comply with the commercial and legal requirements of international markets. Our success in international markets will depend, in part, on our ability and that of our partners to secure relationships with foreign sub-distributors, and our ability to manufacture products that meet foreign regulatory and commercial requirements. Additionally, our planned international operations are subject to other inherent risks, including potential difficulties in enforcing contractual obligations and intellectual property rights in foreign countries, and could be adversely affected due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates, political and economic instability, acts or threats of terrorism, changes in governmental policies or policies of central banks, expropriation, nationalization and/or confiscation of assets, price controls, fund transfer restrictions, capital controls, exchange rate controls, taxes, unfavorable political and diplomatic developments, changes in legislation or regulations and other additional developments or restrictive actions over which we will have no control.
Doing business in foreign markets requires us to be able to respond to rapid changes in market, legal, and political conditions in these countries. As we expand in international markets, we may face numerous challenges, including unexpected changes in regulatory requirements; potential conflicts or disputes that countries may have to deal with; required compliance with anti-bribery laws, such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or the UK Anti-Bribery Act of 2010, data privacy requirements, labor laws and anti-competition regulations; export or import restrictions; laws and business practices favoring local companies; fluctuations in currency exchange rates; longer payment cycles and difficulties in collecting accounts receivables; difficulties in managing international operations; potentially adverse tax consequences, tariffs, customs charges, bureaucratic requirements and other trade barriers; restrictions on repatriation of earnings and the burdens of complying with a wide variety of international laws. Any of these factors could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. The success of our international expansion will depend, in part, on our ability to succeed in navigating the different legal, regulatory, economic, social, and political environments. For example, in June 2016, voters in the United Kingdom approved a reference to withdraw the United Kingdom’s membership from the European Union, which is commonly known as “Brexit.” The United Kingdom formally left the European Union on January 31, 2020, but the United Kingdom remained in the European Union’s customs union and single market for a transition period that expired on December 31, 2020. On December 24, 2020, the United Kingdom and the European Union entered into a Trade and Cooperation Agreement which was applied on a provisional basis from January 1, 2021. While the economic integration does not reach the level that existed during the time the United Kingdom was a member state of the European Union, the Trade and Cooperation Agreement sets out preferential arrangements in areas such as trade in goods and in services, digital trade and intellectual property. Negotiations between the United Kingdom and the European Union are expected to continue in relation to the relationship between the United Kingdom and the European Union in certain other areas which are not covered by the Trade and Cooperation Agreement. The long term effects of Brexit will depend on the effects of the implementation and application of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement and any other relevant agreements between the United Kingdom and the European Union. We cannot predict the effect of Brexit nor do we have control over whether and to which effect any other member state will decide to exit the European Union in the future. These developments, as well as potential crises and forms of political instability arising therefrom or any other as of yet unforeseen development, may harm our business.
Our investments in joint ventures may involve numerous risks that may affect the ability of such joint ventures to make distributions to us.
In the future we plan to conduct some of our operations through joint ventures in which we share control with our joint venture participants. Our joint venture participants may have economic, business or legal interests or goals that are inconsistent with ours, or those of the joint venture. Furthermore, our joint venture participants may be unable to meet their economic or other obligations, and we may be required to fulfill those obligations alone. Failure by us, or an entity in which we have a joint venture interest, to adequately manage the risks associated with such joint ventures could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of our joint ventures and, in turn, our business and operations. In addition, should any of these risks materialize, it could have a material adverse effect on the ability of the joint venture to make future distributions to us.
Our products and services face intense competition.
The markets for energy products are intensely competitive. Some of our competitors in the power sector (predominantly incumbent technologies) are much larger than we are and may have the manufacturing, marketing and sales capabilities to complete research, development, and commercialization of profitable, commercially viable products more quickly and effectively than we can. There are many companies engaged in all areas of traditional and alternative energy generation in the United States and abroad, including, among others, major electric, oil, chemical, natural gas, battery, generator and specialized electronics firms, as well as universities, research institutions and foreign government-sponsored companies. These firms are engaged in forms of power generation such as advanced battery technologies, generator sets, fast charged technologies and other types of fuel cell technologies. In addition, the primary current value proposition for our customers stems from productivity gains in using our solutions. Longer term, given evolving market dynamics and changes in alternative energy tax credits, if we are unable to successfully develop future products that are competitive with competing technologies in terms of price, reliability and longevity, customers may not buy our products. Technological advances in alternative energy products, battery systems or other fuel cell technologies may make our products less attractive or render them obsolete.
C. Financial and Liquidity Risks
If we cannot obtain financing to support the sale of our products and service to our customers, such failure may adversely affect our liquidity and financial position.
Customers representing most of our revenue purchase our products directly. These purchases require us to finance the manufacturing of such products, either ourselves or through third-party financing sources. To date, we have been successful in obtaining or providing the necessary financing arrangements. There is no certainty, however, that we will be able to continue to obtain or provide adequate financing for these arrangements on acceptable terms, or at all, in the future. Failure to obtain or provide such financing may result in the loss of material customers and product sales, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Further, if we are required to continue to pledge or restrict substantial amounts of our cash to support these financing arrangements, such cash will not be available to us for other purposes, which may have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial position.
We have incurred losses and anticipate continuing to incur losses.
We have not achieved operating profitability in any period since our formation and we will continue to incur net losses until we can produce sufficient revenue to cover our costs. We anticipate that we will continue to incur losses until we can produce and sell our products and services on a large-scale and cost-effective basis. We cannot guarantee when we will operate profitably, if ever. In order to achieve profitability, we must successfully execute our planned path to profitability in the early adoption markets on which we are focused. The profitability of our products depends largely on material and manufacturing costs and the market price of hydrogen. The hydrogen infrastructure that is needed to support our growth readiness and cost efficiency must be available and cost efficient. We must continue to shorten the cycles in our product roadmap with respect to improvement in product reliability and performance that our customers expect. We must execute on successful introduction of our products into the market. We must accurately evaluate our markets for, and react to, competitive threats in both other technologies (such as advanced batteries) and our technology field. Finally, we must continue to lower our products’ build costs and lifetime service costs. If we are unable to successfully take these steps, we may never operate profitably, and, even if we do achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase our profitability in the future.
D. Operational Risks
We may not be able to expand our business or manage our future growth effectively.
We may not be able to expand our business or manage future growth. We plan to continue to improve our manufacturing processes and build additional manufacturing production over the next five years, which will require successful execution of:
● expanding our existing customers and expanding to new markets;
● ensuring manufacture, delivery and installation of our products;
● implementing and improving additional and existing administrative, financial and operations systems, procedures and controls;
● hiring additional employees;
● expanding and upgrading our technological capabilities;
● managing relationships with our customers and suppliers and strategic partnerships with other third parties;
● maintaining adequate liquidity and financial resources; and
● continuing to increase our revenues from operations.
Ensuring delivery of our products is subject to many market risks, including scarcity, significant price fluctuations and competition. Maintaining adequate liquidity is dependent upon a variety of factors, including continued revenues from operations, working capital improvements, and compliance with our debt instruments. We may not be able to achieve our growth strategy and increase production capacity as planned during the foreseeable future. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, we may not be able to take advantage of market opportunities, develop new products, satisfy customer requirements, execute our business plan, or respond to competitive pressures.
Delays in or not completing our product development goals may adversely affect our revenue and profitability.
If we experience delays in meeting our development goals, our products exhibit technical defects, or if we are unable to meet cost or performance goals, including power output, useful life and reliability, the profitable commercialization of our products will be delayed. In this event, potential purchasers of our products may choose alternative technologies and any delays could allow potential competitors to gain market advantages. We cannot assure that we will successfully meet our commercialization schedule in the future.
Periodically, we may enter into contracts with our customers for certain products that have not been developed or produced. There can be no assurance that we will complete the development of these products and meet the specifications required to fulfill customer agreements and deliver products on schedule. Pursuant to such agreements, the customers would have the right to provide notice to us if, in their good faith judgment, we have materially deviated from such agreements. Should a customer provide such notice, and we cannot mutually agree to a modification to the agreement, then the customer may have the right to terminate the agreement, which could adversely affect our future business.
Other than our current products, which we believe to be commercially viable at this time, we do not know when or whether we will successfully complete research and development of other commercially viable products that could be critical to our future. If we are unable to develop additional commercially viable products, we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to become profitable. The profitable commercialization of our products depends on our ability to reduce the costs of our components and subsystems, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to sufficiently reduce these costs. In addition, the profitable commercialization of our products requires achievement and verification of their overall reliability, efficiency and safety targets, and we cannot assure you that we will be able to develop, acquire or license the technology necessary to achieve these targets. We must complete additional research and development to fill our product portfolios and deliver enhanced functionality and reliability in order to manufacture additional commercially viable products in commercial quantities. In addition, while we continue to conduct tests to predict the overall life of our products, we may not have run our products over their projected useful life prior to large-scale commercialization. As a result, we cannot be sure that our products will last as long as predicted, resulting in possible warranty claims and commercial failures.
Our products use flammable fuels that are inherently dangerous substances.
Our fuel cell systems use hydrogen gas in catalytic reactions. While our products do not use this fuel in a combustion process, hydrogen gas is a flammable fuel that could leak and combust if ignited by another source. Further, any such accidents involving our products or other products using similar flammable fuels could materially suppress demand for, or heighten regulatory scrutiny of, our products.
The risk of product liability claims and associated adverse publicity is inherent in the development, manufacturing, marketing and sale of fuel cell products, including products fueled by hydrogen, a flammable gas. Any liability for damages resulting from malfunctions or design defects could be substantial and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. In addition, an actual or perceived problem with our products could adversely affect the market’s perception of our products resulting in a decline in demand for our products, which may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Our purchase orders may not ship, be commissioned or installed, or convert to revenue.
Some of the orders we accept from customers require certain conditions or contingencies to be satisfied, or may be cancelled, prior to shipment or prior to commissioning or installation, some of which are outside of our control. The time periods from receipt of an order to shipment date and installation vary widely and are determined by a number of factors, including the terms of the customer contract and the customer’s deployment plan. There may also be product redesign or modification requirements that must be satisfied prior to shipment of units under certain of our agreements. If the redesigns or modifications are not completed, some or all of our orders may not ship or convert to revenue. In certain cases, we publicly disclose anticipated, pending orders with prospective customers; however, those prospective customers may require certain conditions or contingencies to be satisfied prior to entering into a purchase order with us, some of which are outside of our control. Such conditions or contingencies that may be required to be satisfied before we receive a purchase order may include, but are not limited to, successful product demonstrations or field trials. Converting orders into revenue is also dependent upon our customers’ ability to obtain financing. Some conditions or contingencies that are out of our control may include, but are not limited to, government tax policy, government funding programs, and government incentive programs. Additionally, some conditions and contingencies may extend for several years. We may have to compensate customers, by either reimbursement, forfeiting portions of associated revenue, or other methods depending on the terms of the customer contract, based on the failure on any of these conditions or contingencies. While not probable, this could have an adverse impact on our revenue and cash flow.
We are dependent on information technology in our operations and the failure of such technology may adversely affect our business.
We may experience problems with the operation of our current information technology systems or the technology systems of third parties on which we rely, as well as the development and deployment of new information technology systems, that could adversely affect, or even temporarily disrupt, all or a portion of our operations until resolved. Inabilities and delays in implementing new systems can also affect our ability to realize projected or expected cost savings. Despite the implementation of network security measures, our information technology could be penetrated by outside parties (such as computer hackers or cyber terrorists) intent on extracting information, corrupting information or disrupting business processes. Such unauthorized access could disrupt our business and could result in a loss of assets or reputational damage. Additionally, any systems failures could impede our ability to timely collect and report financial results in accordance with applicable laws.
Our financial results may be adversely affected by changes in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
GAAP is subject to interpretation by the FASB, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the SEC and various bodies formed to promulgate and interpret appropriate accounting principles. See Note 4, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K regarding the effect of new accounting pronouncements on our financial statements. Any difficulties in implementing these pronouncements could cause us to fail to meet our financial reporting obligations, which could result in regulatory discipline and harm investors’ confidence in us. Further, the implementation of new accounting pronouncements or a change in other principles or interpretations could have a significant effect on our financial results.
E. Regulatory Risks
The reduction or elimination of government subsidies and economic incentives for alternative energy technologies, or the failure to renew such subsidies and incentives, could reduce demand for our products, lead to a reduction in our revenues and adversely impact our operating results and liquidity.
We believe that the near-term growth of alternative energy technologies is affected by the availability and size of government and economic incentives. Many of these government incentives expire, phase out over time, may exhaust the allocated funding, or require renewal by the applicable authority. In addition, these incentive programs could be reduced or discontinued for other reasons. The investment tax credit under the U.S. tax code was renewed in February 2018. The renewal allows for a 30% investment tax credit which declines to 26% for 2021 and 2022, 22% in 2023, and zero for 2024 and later. The reduction, elimination, or expiration of the investment tax credit or other government subsidies and economic incentives, or the failure to renew such tax credit, governmental subsidies, or economic incentives, may result in the diminished economic competitiveness of our products to our customers and could materially and adversely affect the growth of alternative energy technologies, including our products, as well as our future operating results and liquidity.
We are subject to various federal, state and local environmental and human health and safety laws and regulations that could impose significant costs and liabilities on us.
Our operations are subject to federal, state, and local environmental and human health and safety laws and regulations, including laws and regulations relating to the use, handling, storage, transportation, disposal and human exposure to hazardous substances and wastes, product safety, emissions of pollution into the environment and human health and safety. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur, costs to comply with these laws and regulations. Violation of these laws or regulations or the occurrence of an explosion or other accident in connection with our fuel cell systems at our properties or at third party locations could lead to substantial liabilities and sanctions, including fines and penalties, cleanup costs or the requirement to undertake corrective action. Further, environmental laws and regulations, and the administration, interpretation and enforcement thereof, are subject to change and may become more stringent in the future, each of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Additionally, certain environmental laws impose liability, which can be joint, several and strict, on current and previous owners and operators of real property for the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous substances and damage to natural resources. These laws often impose liability even if the owner or operator did not know of, or was not responsible for, the release of such hazardous substances. They can also assess liability on persons who arrange for hazardous substances to be sent to disposal or treatment facilities when such facilities are found to be contaminated, and such persons can be responsible for cleanup costs even if they never owned or operated the contaminated facility. Our liabilities arising from past or future releases of, or exposure to, hazardous substances may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Trade policies, treaties and tariffs could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our business is dependent on the availability of raw materials and components for our products, particularly electrical components common in the semiconductor industry. There is currently significant uncertainty about the future relationship between the United States and various other countries, most significantly China, with respect to trade policies, treaties, tariffs and taxes. The new U.S. presidential administration and U.S. Congress is in the process of revisiting and, in some cases, reversing changes made by the prior U.S. presidential administration. These developments, or the perception that any of them could occur, could have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets, and could significantly reduce global trade and, in particular, trade between the impacted nations and the United States.
This uncertainty includes the possibility of imposing tariffs or penalties on products manufactured outside the United States, including the U.S. government’s institution of a 25% tariff on a range of products from China and subsequent tariffs imposed by the United States as well as tariffs imposed by trading partners on U.S. goods. The institution of trade tariffs both globally and between the United States and China specifically carries the risk of negatively affecting the overall economic conditions of both China and the United States, which could have a negative impact on us.
We cannot predict whether, and to what extent, there may be changes to international trade agreements or whether quotas, duties, tariffs, exchange controls or other restrictions on our products will be changed or imposed. Although we currently maintain alternative sources for raw materials,, if we are unable to source our products from the countries where we wish to purchase them, either because of regulatory changes or for any other reason, or if the cost of doing so increases, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Disruptions in the supply of raw materials and components could temporarily impair our ability to manufacture our products for our customers or require us to pay higher prices to obtain these raw materials or components from other sources, which could affect our business and our results of operations. Furthermore, the imposition of tariffs on items imported by us from China or other countries could increase our costs and could have a material adverse effect on our business and our results of operations.
Our business may become subject to increased government regulation.
Our products are subject to certain federal, local, and non-U.S. laws and regulations, including, for example, state and local ordinances relating to building codes, public safety, electrical and gas pipeline connections, hydrogen transportation and siting and related matters. See Item 1, “Business-Government Regulations” for additional information. In certain jurisdictions, these regulatory requirements may be more stringent than those in the United States. Further, as products are introduced into the market commercially, governments may impose new regulations. We do not know the extent to which any such regulations may impact our ability to manufacture, distribute, install and service our products. Any regulation of our products, whether at the federal, state, local or foreign level, including any regulations relating to the production, operation, installation, and servicing of our products may increase our costs and the price of our products, and noncompliance with applicable laws and regulations could subject us to investigations, sanctions, enforcement actions, fines, damages, civil and criminal penalties or injunctions. If any governmental sanctions are imposed, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. In addition, responding to any action will likely result in a significant diversion of management’s attention and resources and an increase in professional fees. Enforcement actions and sanctions could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.
Changes in tax laws or regulations or adverse outcomes resulting from examination of our income or other tax returns could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.
We are subject to income taxes in the United States and various foreign jurisdictions. A number of factors may adversely affect our future effective tax rates, such as the jurisdictions in which our profits are determined to be earned and taxed; changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities; adjustments to estimated taxes upon finalization of various tax returns; changes in available tax credits, grants and other incentives; changes in stock-based compensation expense; the availability of loss or credit carryforwards to offset taxable income; changes in tax laws, regulations, accounting principles or interpretations thereof; or examinations by US federal, state or foreign jurisdictions that disagree with interpretations of tax rules and regulations in regard to positions taken on tax filings. A change in our effective tax rate due to any of these factors may adversely affect the carrying value of our tax assets and our future results from operations.
In addition, as our business grows, we are required to comply with increasingly complex taxation rules and practices. We are subject to tax in multiple U.S. tax jurisdictions and in foreign tax jurisdictions as we expand internationally. The development of our tax strategies requires additional expertise and may impact how we conduct our business. If our tax strategies are ineffective or we are not in compliance with domestic and international tax laws, our financial position, operating results and cash flows could be adversely affected.
E. Strategic Risks
We may be unable to establish or maintain relationships with third parties for certain aspects of continued product development, manufacturing, distribution and servicing and the supply of key components for our products.
We will need to maintain and may need to enter into additional strategic relationships in order to complete our current product development and commercialization plans. We may also require partners to assist in the sale, servicing and supply of components for our current products and anticipated products, which are in development. If we are unable to identify, enter into, and maintain satisfactory agreements with potential partners, including those relating to the supply, distribution, service and support of our current products and anticipated products, we may not be able to complete our product development and commercialization plans on schedule or at all. We may also need to scale back these plans in the absence of needed partners, which could adversely affect our future prospects for development and commercialization of future products. While we have entered into relationships with suppliers of some key components for our products, we do not know when or whether we will secure supply relationships for all required components and subsystems for our products, or whether such relationships will be on terms that will allow us to achieve our objectives. Our business prospects, results of operations and financial condition could be harmed if we fail to secure relationships with entities that can develop or supply the required components for our products and provide the required distribution and servicing support. Additionally, the agreements governing our current relationships allow for termination by our partners under certain circumstances, some of which are beyond our control. If any of our current strategic partners were to terminate any of its agreements with us, there could be a material adverse impact on the continued development and profitable commercialization of our products and the operation of our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
We may be unable to make attractive acquisitions or successfully integrate acquired businesses, assets or properties, and any ability to do so may disrupt our business and hinder our ability to grow, divert the attention of key personnel, disrupt our business and impair our financial results.
As part of our business strategy, we intend to consider acquisitions of companies, technologies and products. We may not be able to identify such attractive acquisition opportunities. Acquisitions, involve numerous risks, any of which could harm our business, including, among other things:
● difficulty in integrating the technologies, products, operations and existing contracts of a target company and realizing the anticipated benefits of the combined businesses;
● mistaken assumptions about volumes or the timing of those volumes, revenues or costs, including synergies;
● negative perception of the acquisition by customers, financial markets or investors;
● difficulty in supporting and transitioning customers, if any, of the target company;
● inability to achieve anticipated synergies or increase the revenue and profit of the acquired business;
● the assumption of unknown liabilities;
● exposure to potential lawsuits;
● limitations on rights to indemnity from the seller;
● the diversion of management’s and employees’ attention from other business concerns;
● unforeseen difficulties operating in new geographic areas;
● customer or key employee losses at the acquired businesses;
● the price we pay or other resources that we devote may exceed the value we realize; or\
● the value we could have realized if we had allocated the purchase price or other resources to another opportunity and inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset acquisition costs.
In addition, if we finance acquisitions by issuing equity securities, our existing stockholders may be diluted. As a result, if our forecasted assumptions for these acquisitions and investments are not accurate, we may not achieve the anticipated benefits of any such acquisitions, and we may incur costs in excess of what we had anticipated.
Risks Related To Our Common Stock
The market price of our common stock may be volatile and may be affected by market conditions beyond our control.
The market price of our common stock is subject to significant fluctuations in response to, among other factors:
● variations in our operating results and market conditions specific to technology companies;
● changes in financial estimates or recommendations by securities analysts;
● announcements of innovations or new products or services by us or our competitors;
● the emergence of new competitors;
● operating and market price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable;
● changes in our board or management;
● sales or purchases of our common stock by insiders;
● commencement of, or involvement in, litigation;
● changes in governmental regulations; and
● general economic conditions and slow or negative growth of related markets.
In addition, if the market for stocks in our industry or the stock market in general, experiences a loss of investor confidence, the market price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition or results of operations. If any of the foregoing occurs, it could cause the price of our common stock to fall and may expose us to lawsuits that, even if unsuccessful, could be costly to defend and a distraction to the board of directors and management.
If we are unable to pay the costs associated with being a public, reporting company, we may be forced to discontinue operations.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB tier of the marketplace maintained by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol “REII.” We expect to have significant costs associated with being a public, reporting company, which may raise substantial doubt about our ability to sell our equity securities and/or continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern will depend on positive cash flow, if any, from future operations and on our ability to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing. If we are unable to achieve the necessary product sales or raise or obtain needed funding to cover the costs of operating as a public, reporting company, we may be forced to discontinue operations.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB tier of the marketplace maintained by OTC Markets Group, Inc., which may make it more difficult for investors to resell their shares due to suitability requirements.
Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB tier of the marketplace maintained by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol “REII.” Broker-dealers often decline to trade in over-the-counter stocks given the market for such securities are often limited, the stocks are more volatile, and the risk to investors is greater. These factors may reduce the potential market for our common stock by reducing the number of potential investors. This may make it more difficult for investors in our common stock to sell shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of their shares. This could cause our stock price to decline.
Our principal stockholders have the ability to exert significant control in matters requiring stockholder approval and could delay, deter, or prevent a change in control of our company.
Robert Mount and Lynn Barney have beneficial ownership of our preferred stock and common stock with over 97% of the shareholder votes combined. As a result, they have the ability to influence matters affecting our shareholders, including the election of our directors, the acquisition or disposition of our assets, and the future issuance of our shares. Because they controls such shares, investors may find it difficult to replace our management if they disagree with the way our business is being operated. Because the influence by these shareholders could result in management making decisions that are in the best interest of those shareholders and not in the best interest of the investors, you may lose some or all of the value of your investment in our common stock. Investors who purchase our common stock should be willing to entrust all aspects of operational control to our current management team.
We do not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
We do not intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. We do not plan on making any cash distributions in the manner of a dividend or otherwise. Our Board presently intends to follow a policy of retaining earnings, if any.
Future sales and issuances of our capital stock or rights to purchase capital stock could result in additional dilution of the percentage ownership of our stockholders and could cause our stock price to decline.
Future sales and issuances of our capital stock or rights to purchase our capital stock could result in substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. We may sell common stock, convertible securities and other equity securities in one or more transactions at prices and in a manner as we may determine from time to time. If we sell any such securities in subsequent transactions, investors may be materially diluted. New investors in such subsequent transactions could gain rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of holders of our common stock.
In addition, changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure are creating uncertainty for public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance costs and making some activities more time consuming. These laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and, as a result, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards, and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management’s time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If our efforts to comply with new laws, regulations and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to their application and practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against us and our business may be adversely affected.
We also expect that being a public company and these new rules and regulations will make it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. These factors could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee and compensation committee, and qualified executive officers.
As a result of disclosure of information in this Annual Report and in filings required of a public company, our business and financial condition will become more visible, which we believe may result in threatened or actual litigation, including by competitors and other third parties. If such claims are successful, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected, and even if the claims do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor, these claims, and the time and resources necessary to resolve them, could divert the resources of our management and adversely affect our business and results of operations.
The market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse
Stockholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:
● control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
● manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;
● boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced salespersons;
● excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and,
● the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequential investor losses.
Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.
Due to the lack of a developed trading market for our securities, you may have difficulty selling your shares.
Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB tier of the marketplace maintained by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol “REII.” There currently is a very limited public trading market for our common stock. The lack of a developed public trading market for our shares may have a negative effect on your ability to sell your shares in the future and it also may have a negative effect on the price, if any, for which you may be able to sell your shares. As a result an investment in the shares may be illiquid in nature and investors could lose some or all of their investment.
Our internal controls may be inadequate, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by the board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Our internal controls may be inadequate or ineffective, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public.
Our common stock is governed under The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990.
The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires additional disclosure relating to the market for penny stocks in connection with trades in any stock defined as a penny stock. The Commission has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Such exceptions include any equity security listed on NASDAQ and any equity security issued by an issuer that has (i) net tangible assets of at least $2,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for three years, (ii) net tangible assets of at least $5,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three years, or (iii) average annual revenue of at least $6,000,000, if such issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three years. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith.
The forward looking statements contained in this Annual Report may prove incorrect.
This Annual Report contains certain forward-looking statements, including among others: (i) anticipated trends in our financial condition and results of operations; (ii) our business strategy for expanding distribution; and (iii) our ability to distinguish ourselves from our current and future competitors. These forward-looking statements are based largely on our current expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from these forward-looking statements. In addition to the other risks described elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” discussion, important factors to consider in evaluating such forward-looking statements include: (i) changes to external competitive market factors or in our internal budgeting process which might impact trends in our results of operations; (ii) anticipated working capital or other cash requirements; (iii) changes in our business strategy or an inability to execute our strategy due to unanticipated changes in the biotechnology industry; and (iv) various competitive factors that may prevent us from competing successfully in the marketplace. In light of these risks and uncertainties, many of which are described in greater detail elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” discussion, there can be no assurance that the events predicted in forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report will, in fact, transpire.
General Risk Factors
We will incur ongoing costs and expenses for SEC reporting and compliance, without increased revenue we may not be able to remain in compliance, making it difficult for investors to sell their shares, if at all.
Going forward, we will have ongoing SEC compliance and reporting obligations. Such ongoing obligations will require us to expend additional amounts on compliance, legal and auditing costs. In order for us to remain in compliance, we will require increased revenues to cover the cost of these filings, which could comprise a substantial portion of our available cash resources. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenues to remain in compliance, it may be difficult for you to resell any shares you may purchase, if at all.
We have the right to issue additional common stock without consent of stockholders. This would have the effect of diluting investors’ ownership and could decrease the value of their investment.
We are authorized to issue 250,000,000 shares of common stock. Of these authorized shares, 6,080,580 shares are issued and outstanding as of March 3, 2023. Therefore, we are authorized to issue up to an additional approximately 244 million unissued shares of our common stock that may be issued by us for any purpose without the further consent or vote of our stockholders that would dilute stockholders’ percentage ownership of our company.
Our officers and directors can sell some of their stock, which may have a negative effect on our stock price and ability to raise additional capital, and may make it difficult for investors to sell their stock at any price.
Our officers and directors, as a group, are the beneficial owners of 192,506,606 shares of our common stock, representing more than 97% of our total issued shares on a fully-diluted basis. Each individual officer, director, and control party may be able to sell up to 1% of our outstanding stock (currently approximately 1.9 million shares on a fully-diluted basis) every 90 days in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, which may have a negative effect on our stock price and may prevent us from obtaining additional capital. In addition, if our officers and directors are selling their stock into the open market, it may make it difficult or impossible for investors to sell their stock at any price.
SPECIAL NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
We have made forward-looking statements in this Annual Report, including the sections entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Business,” that are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning our possible or assumed future results of operations, business strategies, financing plans, competitive position, industry environment, potential growth opportunities, the effects of future regulation, and the effects of competition. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate” or similar expressions. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including the risks outlined under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Annual Report.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, events, levels of activity, performance or achievement. We are not under any duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this Annual Report to conform these statements to actual results, unless required by law.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Although the forward-looking statements in this Annual Report reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.
Nestbuilder.com Corp
Enclosed with this Annual Report on Form 10-K are the audited financial statements of Nestbuilder.com Corp., a Nevada corporation, for the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021. This section of our Management’s Discussion and Analysis discusses this business of Nestbuilder.com.
Overview
Prior to the transaction between Nestbuilder.com Corp. and Renewable Innovations, Inc., we were engaged in the business of providing digital media and marketing services for the real estate industry. We generated revenue from service fees (video creation and production and referral fees from our LoseTheAgent.com website). At the core of our programs was our proprietary video creation technology which allowed for an automated conversion of data (text, video slices and pictures of home listings) to a video with voice over and music. We provided video search, storage and marketing capabilities on multiple platform dynamics for web and mobile. Once a home, personal or community video was created using our proprietary technology, it could be published to social media, email or distributed to multiple real estate websites.
In addition, we owned and operated the web site LoseTheAgent.com, which is a site dedicated to peer-to-peer real estate transactions between home sellers and buyers - the so called For Sale By Owner segment. We had approximately 100,000 home listings across all 50 states. We monetized the website by charging fees for both listing a home for sale and picking up possible buyers’ messages of interest. We also planned on generating additional revenues by monetizing seller/buyer data with targeted, interested parties.
We discontinued the historical business of Nestbuilder.com on February 28, 2023.
Going Concern
We had received a report from our independent registered public accounting firm for our financial statements for the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021 that included an explanatory paragraph describing the uncertainty as to our ability to continue as a going concern. In order to continue as a going concern, we must effectively balance many factors and begin to generate sufficient revenue to fund our operations. If we are not able to do this, we may not be able to continue as an operating company. At our current revenue and burn rate, our cash on hand would not have covered our operating expenses for the next twelve months.
Results of Operations for the Year Ended November 30, 2022, compared to Year Ended November 30, 2021
Revenue
Total revenue for the year ended November 30, 2022, was $46,675 compared to $61,050 for the year ended November 30, 2021, a decrease of 23.5%. The decrease is primarily a result of declining legacy virtual tour business.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenues totaled $17,195 for year ended November 30, 2022, compared to $16,942 for the year ended November 30, 2021, representing a decrease of $253. Cost of revenues consists primarily of engineering and server costs incurred in connection with maintenance of our online networks.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses, which include salaries and benefits and general and administrative expenses, increased 1,001% to $882,832, for the year ended November 30, 2022, compared to $80,244 for the year ended November 30, 2021, an increase of $802,588. Salary and benefit expense increased $730,098 from $18,946 for the year ended November 30, 2021 to $749,044 for the year ended November 30, 2022. Stock-based compensation amounted to $693,194, which includes vesting of warrants and restricted stock, during fiscal 2022. A breakdown of general and administrative expenses is as follows:
Fiscal Year Ended
November 30,
Expense Increase/(Decrease)
Professional fees $ 116,628 $ 56,463 $ 60,165
Office and other miscellaneous 17,160 4,835 12,325
Total $ 133,788 $ 61,298 $ 72,490
Other Income (Expenses)
During the current year, we obtained forgiveness of our PPP and SBA loan in the amount of $15,077. In addition, we recorded a loss on the extinguishment of debt in the amount of $72,198.
Fiscal Year Ended

Expense Increase/(Decrease)

Gain on forgiveness of PPP loan from SBA 15,077 13,080 1,997
Total $ (64,379 ) $ 9,610 $ (73,989 )
Net Income/Loss
We had net loss of $917,731 for the year ended November 30, 2022, compared to a net loss of $27,070 for the year ended November 30, 2021, for an increase of $890,661.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Introduction
Our principal needs for liquidity have been to fund operating losses and working capital requirements. Our principal source of liquidity as of November 30, 2022, consisted of cash of $2,571. We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be our principal need for liquidity over the near term. Working capital requirements are expected to increase as a result of our anticipated growth.
We have not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover our operating costs and allow us to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until we become profitable. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease operations. Management’s plan to meet our operating expenses in the short term is through equity and/or debt financing.
Cash Requirements
On November 30, 2022, we had $2,571 cash on-hand, a decrease of $17,051 from the prior year balance of $19,622. Based on our current revenues, cash on hand, and our current net monthly burn rate of approximately $5,000 we will need to continue to raise money from the issuance of equity to fund short term operations.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Operations
Net cash used by operating activities was $150,473 for the year ended November 30, 2022, an increase of $105,791 from $44,682 used in operating activities in the year ended November 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to the net loss from the year.
Investments
There were no investing activities for the years ended November 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.
Financing
Net cash provided by financing activities was $133,422 for the year ended November 30, 2022, as compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $60,180 for the year ended November 30, 2021.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
As of November 30, 2022, we do not have any 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 resources that are material to investors.
Critical accounting policies and estimates
Our critical accounting policies are set forth in Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our financial statement footnotes.
Recent accounting pronouncements
We have evaluated recent pronouncements and do not expect their adoption to have a material impact on our financial position or statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Nestbuilder.com Corp.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Nestbuilder.com Corp. (the Company) as of November 30, 2022, and 2021, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended November 30, 2022, 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 November 30, 2022, and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended November 30, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Explanatory Paragraph - Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company had a net loss and net cash used in operating activities of $917,731 and $150,473, respectively, for the year ended November 30, 2022, and a working capital deficit and accumulated deficit of $108,928 and $1,533,793, respectively, as of November 30, 2022. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters 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.
We determined that there were no critical audit matters.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2018.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOVEMBER 30, 2022
NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Organization
We are engaged in the business of providing digital media and marketing services for the real estate industry. We currently generate revenue from service fees (video creation and production and referral fees from our LoseTheAgent.com website). At the core of our programs is our proprietary video creation technology which allows for an automated conversion of data (text, video slices and pictures of home listings) to a video with voice over and music. We provide video search, storage and marketing capabilities on multiple platform dynamics for web and mobile. Once a home, personal or community video is created using our proprietary technology, it can be published to social media, email or distributed to multiple real estate websites.
In addition, we own and operate the web site LoseTheAgent.com, which is a site dedicated to peer-to-peer real estate transactions between home sellers and buyers - the so called For Sale By Owner segment. We currently have approximately 100,000 home listings across all 50 states. We monetize the website by charging fees for both listing a home for sale and picking up possible buyers’ messages of interest. We also plan on generating additional revenues by monetizing seller/buyer data with targeted, interested parties. The web site is fully functional and is being marketed via various online platforms.
Products and Services
We currently offer the following products and services:
Enterprise Video Production: We service large and small broker accounts in the North America Real Estate Market in compiling listings into a Video format and distributing to those franchisor’s websites, brokers and agents and lead generation platforms 24/7. Some of these multiyear contracts produced over 10 million video listings from 2012-2014. These volumes, however, have declined beginning in 2017. We currently have the ability to produce over 15,000 videos per day.
The Virtual Tour (VT): This program was developed and implemented to allow agents to access specific video based product strategies that are designed specifically to increase the SEO rank and traffic credit to real estate franchise systems and/or their brokers.
LoseTheAgent.com: We own and operate the web site LoseTheAgent.com, which is a site dedicated to peer-to-peer real estate transactions between home sellers and buyers - the so called For Sale By Owner (FSBO) segment. We currently have approximately 100,000 home listings across all 50 states. We monetize the website by charging fees for both listing a home for sale and picking up possible buyers’ messages of interest. We also plan on generating additional revenues by monetizing seller/buyer data with targeted, interested parties. The web site is functional and is being marketed via various online platforms.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company utilizes fair value estimates for the calculation of stock-based compensation for applicable warrants and restricted stock awards. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all unrestricted demand deposits, money market funds and highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of less than 90 days to be cash and cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of November 30, 2022 and November 30, 2021.
Property and Equipment
All expenditures on the acquisition for property and equipment are recorded at cost and capitalized as incurred, provided the asset benefits the Company for a period of more than one year. Expenditures on routine repairs and maintenance of property and equipment are charged directly to operating expense. The property and equipment are depreciated based upon its estimated useful life after being placed in service. The estimated useful life of computer equipment is 3 years. When equipment is retired, sold or impaired, the resulting gain or loss is reflected in earnings. The Company’s Property and Equipment are fully depreciated.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-10, “Property, Plant, and Equipment”, the Company periodically reviews its long- lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not impair any long-lived assets as of November 30, 2022, and November 30, 2021.
Website Development Costs
The Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 350-50 “Website Development Costs”. Accordingly, all costs incurred in the planning stage are expensed as incurred, costs incurred in the website application and infrastructure development stage that meet specific criteria are capitalized and costs incurred in the day-to-day operation of the website are expensed as incurred.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (ASC 820) defines “fair value” as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
ASC 820 also describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3: Inputs that are generally unobservable. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.
Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other current liabilities. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments in the accompanying balance sheets approximate their fair values due to their relatively short- term nature. The fair value of long-term debt is based on current rates at which the Company could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities. The carrying amounts approximate fair value. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to any significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
Reclassification
Reclassification adjustment has been made in the prior period financial statements to reclassify convertible promissory notes payable and related accrued interest to related parties as of November 30, 2021. This reclassification resulted in a change in the presentation of notes payable on the balance sheet but had no effect on the previously reported net loss.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This standard provides a single model for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. We adopted the standard effective December 1, 2018, with no cumulative adjustment needed as of this date. All of our revenue is generated from the United States of America.
We generate revenue from service fees for video creation and production and referral fees from our LoseTheAgent.com website. Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:
●Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer - A contract with a customer exists when (i) we enter into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these goods or services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and the parties are committed to perform, and (iii) we determine that collection of substantially all consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for goods or services that will be transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration.
●Identification of the performance obligations in the contract - Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the goods or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from us, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods or services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised goods or services, we apply judgment to determine whether promised goods or services are capable of being distinct and distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met the promised goods or services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation.
●Determination of the transaction price - The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which we will be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to the customer adjusted for estimated variable consideration, if any. We typically estimate the transaction price impact of discounts offered to the customers for early payments on receivables or rebates based on channel partner sales achievements. Constraints are applied when estimating variable considerations based on historical experience where applicable.
●Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract - All current contracts are of a single performance obligation thus the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. We determine standalone selling price taking into account available information such as historical selling prices of the performance obligation, geographic location, overall strategic objective, market conditions and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligation.
●Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy performance obligation - We satisfy performance obligations either over time or at a point in time as discussed in further detail below. Revenue is recognized at or over the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring a promised good or service to a customer.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues includes costs attributable to services sold and delivered. These costs include engineering costs incurred to maintain our networks.
Advertising Expense
Advertising costs are charged to expense as incurred and are included in selling and promotions expense in the accompanying financial statements. Advertising expense for the year ended November 30, 2022, and 2021 were $169 and $544, respectively.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company computes share based payments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 718-10 “Compensation” (ASC 718-10). ASC 718-10 establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods and services at fair value, focusing primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employees services in share-based payment transactions. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods and services that are based on the fair value of an entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. In March 2005, the SEC issued SAB No. 107, Share-Based Payment (“SAB 107”) which provides guidance regarding the interaction of ASC 718-10 and certain SEC rules and regulations. The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of ASC 718-10. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Additionally, the Company has early adopted ASU 2018-07 during fiscal year 2019. In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07 Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2018-07), which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees by aligning it with the accounting for share-based payments to employees, with certain exceptions.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, as clarified by ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred income taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards given the provisions of enacted tax laws. Deferred income tax provisions and benefits are based on changes to the assets or liabilities from year to year. In providing for deferred taxes, the Company considers tax regulations of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates, estimates of future taxable income, and available tax planning strategies. If tax regulations, operating results or the ability to implement tax-planning strategies vary, adjustments to the carrying value of deferred tax assets and liabilities may be required. Valuation allowances are recorded related to deferred tax assets based on the “more likely than not” criteria of ASC 740.
ASC 740-10 requires that the Company recognize the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the “more-likely-than-not” threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company has applied for an extension of time to file with the Internal Revenue Service for its most recent tax filing.
The Company recognizes expenses for tax penalties and interest assessed by the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities upon receiving valid notice of assessments. The Company has received no such notices as of November 30, 2022.
Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per common share is equal to basic because the common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive. The Company’s anti-dilutive common stock equivalents include the following:
SCHEDULE OF ANTI-DILUTIVE SECURITIES OUTSTANDING
November 30,
November 30,
Shares on issuance of warrants as share-based compensation 10,135,000 1,428,005
Shares on convertible promissory notes - 722,443
Shares on unvested restricted stock 802,083 -
Anti-dilutive securities 10,937,083 2,150,448
Concentrations, Risks and Uncertainties
The Company’s operations and revenue are related to the real estate industry and its prospects for success are tied indirectly to interest rates and the general housing and business climates in the United States. Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consists primarily of cash. The Company places its cash with high credit quality institutions. At times, such deposits may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000. The Company did not have cash on deposit in excess of such limit in fiscal year 2022 and 2021.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) - Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for the exceptions. The ASU also simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the standard on the financial statements.
In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The new ASU addresses issuer’s accounting for certain modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options. This amendment is effective for all entities, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2021-04 on January 1, 2022. There is no impact of the adoption of the standard on the financial statements.
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued and not implemented that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 3: GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
At November 30, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of $108,928, an accumulated deficit of $1,533,793 and a net loss and net cash used in operating activities of $917,731 and $150,473, respectively for the year then ended. It is management’s opinion that these facts raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the date of this filing, without additional debt or equity financing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts nor to the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
In order to meet its working capital needs through the next twelve months and to fund the growth of our business, the Company may consider plans to raise additional funds through the issuance of additional shares of common or preferred stock and or through the issuance of debt instruments. Although the Company intends to obtain additional financing to meet our cash needs, the Company may be unable to secure any additional financing on terms that are favorable or acceptable to it, if at all.

NOTE 9: CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES PAYABLE
From December 10, 2020 through January 27, 2021, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, by and among us and the purchasers named thereunder, pursuant to which we issued to each of seven investors a Senior Convertible Promissory Note in the principle amount of up to $10,000 (each, a “Note” and collectively, the “ Notes”) and a Common Stock Purchase Warrant to purchase up to 50,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.10 per share (each, a “Warrant”, and collectively, the “Warrants”). The investors included Alex Aliksanyan, a Director, Thomas M. Grbelja, our Treasurer, Secretary and a Director and William McLeod, our Chief Executive Officer and Director.
The Notes bear Interest at the rate of 10.0% per annum and mature on July 31, 2022.

As of the date of this filing, the investors have made aggregate loan advances under the Notes of $47,160, which includes an additional $16,000 that was advanced under the existing agreement on or about June 20, 2021 and an additional $3,601 during September 2021. In January 2022 an additional advance of $20,000 under the existing agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Notes, the holders of the Notes have the right, at their option, at any time, to convert the principal amount of the Notes, and any accrued interest, into our common stock at a conversion of $0.07 per share. However, each holder of a Note will not have the right to convert any portion of his Note if the holder (together with his affiliates) would beneficially own in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of our common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the conversion, as such a percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Note. Each holder has the right to waive the foregoingconversionon limitations, in whole or in part, upon and effective after 61 days prior written notice to us.
On February 7, 2022, the existing noteholders exercised their conversion rights and were issued 679,534 common shares at $0.07 for a total value of $47,567.

The Company accounts for income taxes considering deferred tax assets and liabilities which represent the future tax consequences of the differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities versus the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Under this method, deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The impact of tax rate changes on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in the year the change is enacted.
The difference between the effective income tax rate and the applicable statutory federal income tax rate is summarized as follows:
SCHEDULE OF RECONCILIATION BETWEEN STATUTORY RATE AND EFFECTIVE RATE
Statutory federal rate (21.0 )% (21.0 )%
Permanent differences, PPP forgiveness 0 % 0 %
Change in valuation allowance 21.0 % 21.0 %
Effective tax rate 0.0 % 0.0 %
At November 30, 2022 and 2021 the Company’s deferred tax assets were as follows:
SCHEDULE OF COMPONENTS OF NET DEFERRED TAX ASSETS
Tax benefit of net operating loss carry forward $ 35,157 $ 2,934
Change in valuation allowance (35,157 ) (2,934 )
Provision for income tax - -
Deferred tax assets (liabilities)
Net deferred tax assets- net operating losses 111,854 76,697
Less: Valuation allowance (111,854 ) (76,697 )
Net deferred tax asset $ - -
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences will become deductible. The Company considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets because it is not currently able to conclude that it is more likely than not that these assets will be realized. The change in the valuation allowance during the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021 was approximately $35,000 and $3,000, respectively. The amount of deferred tax assets considered to be realizable could be increased in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are increased.
As of November 30, 2022, the Company had unused net operating loss carry forwards of $532,637 available to reduce federal taxable income. The Company’s ability to offset future taxable income, if any, with tax net operating loss carryforwards may be limited due to the non-filing of tax returns. Under the CARES act, net operating losses arising after 2017 are able to be carryforward indefinitely. Furthermore, changes in ownership may result in limitations under Internal Revenue Code Section 382.
NOTE 12: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On December 1, 2022, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 1, 2022, by and among Nestbuilder, NB Merger Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Nestbuilder (“Merger Sub”), Renewable Innovations, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Renewable Innovations”), Lynn Barney, as the representative of Renewable Innovations’ securityholders, and Alex Aliksanyan, as the Nestbuilder representative, Nestbuilder acquired Renewable Innovations through the merger of Merger Sub with and into Renewable Innovations (the “Merger”), with Renewable Innovations continuing as the surviving corporation and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of Nestbuilder.
In connection with the Merger, we intend to file articles of merger with the Nevada Secretary of State to change our name to Renewable Innovations, Inc. pursuant to a parent/subsidiary merger between us (as “Nestbuilder.com Corp.”) and our wholly-owned non-operating subsidiary, Renewable Innovations, Inc., which was established for the purpose of giving effect to this name change.
Immediately prior to the Merger, there were 6,090,580 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding and warrants outstanding to acquire up to an aggregate of 10,135,000 shares of our Common Stock. As a result of the Merger, we issued to the shareholders of Renewable Innovations an aggregate of 2,155,684 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, each share of which is convertible into 100 shares of our Common Stock, which represents a 93% ownership interest based on our fully-diluted capitalization immediately following the Merger. As a result of the foregoing transactions, we underwent a change of control on December 1, 2022, which will be accounted for as a reverse merger.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
ITEM 9A - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as of November 30, 2022, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of November 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses identified and described in Item 9A(b).
Our principal executive officers do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our principal executive officers have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at doing so, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
(b) Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as amended, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and includes those policies and procedures that:
● Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and any disposition of our assets;
● Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
● Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2022 .. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, Management identified the following two material weaknesses that have caused management to conclude that, as of November 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures, and our internal control over financial reporting, were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:
1. We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
2. We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
To address these material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only our management’s report in this Annual Report.
(c) Remediation of Material Weaknesses
To remediate the material weakness in our documentation, evaluation and testing of internal controls we plan to engage a third-party firm to assist us in remedying this material weakness once resources become available.
We also intend to remedy our material weakness with regard to insufficient segregation of duties by hiring additional employees in order to segregate duties in a manner that establishes effective internal controls once resources become available.
(d) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report, fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended November 30, 2022, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Family Relationships
There are no family relationships between any of our officers or directors.
Other Directorships; Director Independence
Other than as set forth above, none of our officers and directors is a director of any company with a class of securities registered pursuant to section 12 of the Exchange Act or subject to the requirements of section 15(d) of such Act or any company registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
For purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2). The OTC marketplace on which shares of common stock are quoted does not have any director independence requirements. The NASDAQ definition of “Independent Officer” means a person other than an Executive Officer or employee of the company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the company’s Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. According to the NASDAQ definition, none of our directors are independent.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors and executive officers and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
None of our officers, directors, or beneficial owners of more than ten percent of our common stock has filed reports required by section 16(a) of the Exchange Act during the most recent fiscal year or prior fiscal years.
Board Committees
Our Board of Directors does not maintain a separate audit, nominating or compensation committee. Functions customarily performed by such committees are performed by its Board of Directors as a whole. We are not required to maintain such committees under the applicable rules of the OTC. We do not currently have an “audit committee financial expert” since we currently do not have an audit committee in place. We intend to create board committees, including an independent audit committee, in the near future.
We do not currently have a process for security holders to send communications to the Board.
During the fiscal years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, the Board of Directors met as necessary.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
None of our officers or directors has, in the past ten years, filed bankruptcy, been convicted in a criminal proceeding or named in a pending criminal proceeding, been the subject of any order, judgment, or decree of any court permanently or temporarily enjoining him or her from any securities activities, or any other disclosable event required by Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K.
Code of Ethics
We have not adopted a written code of ethics, primarily because we believe and understand that our officers and directors adhere to and follow ethical standards without the necessity of a written policy.

Notes to Financial Statements to
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Renewable Innovations, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Renewable Innovations, Inc. (the Company) as of November 30, 2022 and 2021, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ 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 November 30, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Explanatory Paragraph - Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $944,938 for the year ended November 30, 2022, and accumulated deficit of $2,123,966 and negative working capital of $299,092 as of November 30, 2022. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Description of the Matter
As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, revenues from the sale and installation of power systems are recognized when control has passed to the customer. The customer is considered to have control of the asset when the customer accepts the power system, or when they otherwise direct its use. Most of the Company’s contracts to date are to enhance assets controlled by the customer. In these cases, revenue is recognized based on the percentage of completion method. Management uses the percentage of completion input method based on costs. Specifically, percentage of completion is the ratio of total costs to date to estimated expected costs related to the project. Some contracts for the sale and installation of power systems were recognized at a point in time due to the nature of when control passed to the customer.
We identified the estimation of expected costs and percentage of completion and recording certain contracts at a point in time as a critical audit matter. Subjective auditor judgment was required to evaluate the assumptions used to develop the percentage of completion and recognizing certain revenue at a point in time.
How we Addressed the Matter in Our Audit
The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included the following:
● We obtained understanding the Company’s process for estimating expected costs and percentage of completion, including the assumptions used to develop the estimate. We tested the percentage of completion by:
○ Testing actual cost to vendor invoices and payroll records;
○ Testing changes to estimated costs, if any, including the amount and timing of the change; and
○ Evaluating the scope of the work for consistency with the underlying contractual terms;
○ Testing the delivery of the product, based on internal and customer-facing information;
○ Actual costs incurred subsequent to the balance sheet date to assess if they were consistent with the estimate for that time period; and
○ Reviewing gross margins.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended November 30, 2022 and 2021
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS
ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS
Renewable Innovations, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Renewable,” or the “Company”), was incorporated in 2019 and commenced operations in 2021.
Renewable’s goal is to accelerate the growth and opportunities within the renewable economy. Our team of industry leaders brings extensive experience and connections across the Renewable, Hydrogen, and Alternative Energy sectors.
Our advanced power integration, applications, and solutions are focused on creating a new Hydrogen-powered energy economy:
● Hydrogen Fuel Cell (HFC) scalable backup and primary power systems
● Mobile and transportable HFC-powered EV Rapid Charge systems for the Electric Vehicle market to help close the Grid Gap (TM)
● Advanced Hydrogen transport and refueling vehicles
● Greenhouse Grids to power communities
Our customers include government agencies and leading Fortune 500 companies.
Upon formation of the Company, the common shares authorized was 10,000. In May 2021, 2,000 common shares were issued to Robert Mount and Lynn Barney, the Company’s founders. On May 13, 2021, the articles of incorporation were amended to increase the authorized common shares to 1,000,000, in addition to authorizing the preferred stock discussed above. Upon the filing of the amended articles of incorporation, the common shares were subject to a 250-for-1 forward stock split; thus, increasing the common shares outstanding to 500,000 shares.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which requires management to use its judgment to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. These assumptions and estimates could have a material effect on our financial statements. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates. We review our estimates on an ongoing basis based on information currently available, and changes in facts and circumstances may cause us to revise these estimates. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s financial statements include allowance for doubtful accounts, revenue recognition, deferred revenue, useful lives of property, plant and equipment and fair value of lease liabilities and right of use assets, and inventory obsolescence.
Cash
Cash consists of petty cash and checking accounts. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of November 30, 2022 and 2021.
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits.
Accounts Receivable
We manage credit risk associated with our accounts receivables at the customer level. Because the same customers typically generate the revenues that are accounted for under both Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and Accounting Standards Codification Topic 326, Credit Losses (Topic 326), the discussions below on credit risk and our allowances for doubtful accounts address our total revenues from Topic 606 and Topic 326.
Pursuant to Topic 326 for our accounts receivables, we maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts that reflects our estimate of our expected credit losses. Our allowance is estimated using a loss rate model based on delinquency. The estimated loss rate is based on our historical experience with specific customers, our understanding of our current economic circumstances, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and our own judgment as to the likelihood of ultimate payment based upon available data. We perform credit evaluations of customers and establish credit limits based on reviews of our customers’ current credit information and payment histories. The actual rate of future credit losses, however, may not be similar to past experience. Our estimate of doubtful accounts could change based on changing circumstances, including changes in the economy or in the particular circumstances of individual customers. Accordingly, we may be required to increase or decrease our allowance for doubtful accounts.
Inventory
All inventory consists of raw materials and is valued at the lower of first-in-first-out cost or net realizable value; where net realizable value is considered to be the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable cost of completion, disposal, and transportation. Management periodically evaluates inventory for obsolescence and has determined that no inventory is obsolete as of November 30, 2022 and 2021.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Ordinary repair and maintenance costs are included in sales, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses on our statements of operations. However, expenditures for additions or improvements that significantly extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized in the period incurred. At the time assets are sold or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from their respective accounts and the related gains or losses are reflected in the statements of operations in gains from sales of property and equipment, net.
The Company’s demonstration units are examples of two of the Company’s products and are taken to trade shows and other venues to showcase the Company’s hydrogen cell technology and products. Construction in progress includes large equipment that will be used in production that have not yet been placed in service because, either installation or training is not complete.
We periodically evaluate the appropriateness of remaining depreciable lives assigned to property and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives or the remaining term of the lease, whichever is shorter. Generally, we assign the following estimated useful lives to these categories:
SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED USEFUL LIVES
Category
Estimated Useful Life
Machinery and equipment
Leasehold improvements
Demonstration units
to 10 years
years
years
Leases
We determine whether an arrangement is a lease at the inception of the arrangement based on the terms and conditions in the contract. A contract contains a lease if there is an identified asset, and we have the right to control the asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Lease arrangements can take several forms. Some arrangements are clearly within the scope of lease accounting, such as real estate contracts that provide an explicit contractual right to use a building for a specified period of time in exchange for consideration. However, the right to use an asset can also be conveyed through arrangements that are not leases in form, such as leases embedded within service and supply contracts. We analyze all arrangements with potential embedded leases to determine if an identified asset is present, if substantive substitution rights are present, and if the arrangement provides the customer control of the asset.
Our lease portfolio is substantially comprised of operating leases related to leases of real estate and improvements. From time to time, we may also lease various types of small equipment and vehicles.
Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use an individual asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide the lessor’s implicit rate we use the incremental borrowing rate IBR, in determining the present value of lease payments by utilizing a fully collateralized rate for a fully amortizing loan with the same term as the lease.
Lease terms include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain those options will be exercised. For leases with terms greater than 12 months, we record the related asset and obligation at the present value of lease payments over the term. Our leases can include rental escalation clauses, renewal options and/or termination options that are factored into our determination of lease payments when such renewal options and/or termination options are reasonably certain of exercise.
A ROU asset is subject to the same impairment guidance as assets categorized as plant, property, and equipment. As such, any impairment loss on ROU assets is presented in the same manner as an impairment loss recognized on other long-lived assets.
A lease modification is a change to the terms and conditions of a contract that change the scope or consideration of a lease. For example, a change to the terms and conditions to the contract that adds or terminates the right to use one or more underlying assets, or extends or shortens the contractual lease term, is a modification. Depending on facts and circumstances, a lease modification may be accounted as either: (1) the original lease plus the lease of a separate asset(s) or (2) a modified lease. A lease will be remeasured if there are changes to the lease contract that do not give rise to a separate lease.
Impairment of long-lived Assets
U.S. GGAP requires that long-lived assets held by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. No asset impairments were recorded by the Company for the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021.
Revenue Recognition
When entering into contracts with our customers, we follow the five steps outlined in Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606):
i. Identify the contract with our customer.
ii. Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
iii. Determine the transaction price.
iv. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations.
v. Evaluate the satisfaction of the performance obligations.
We account for contracts, with our customers, when we have approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are established, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.
Under Topic 606, we recognize revenue when or as we satisfy a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to our customer. A good or service is considered transferred when the customer obtains control. The standard defines control as an entity’s ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, an asset. We recognize revenue once control has passed to the customer. The following indicators are evaluated in determining when control has passed to the customer:
i. We have a right to payment for the product or service,
ii. The customer has legal title to the product,
iii. We have transferred physical possession of the product to the customer,
iv. The customer has the risk and rewards of ownership of the product, and
v. The customer has accepted the product.
The following are the two revenue streams:
Revenue Recognition for Sale and/or Install of Power Systems. Revenues from product sales and installation of power systems are recognized when control has passed to the customer. The customer is considered to have control of the asset when the customer accepts the power system, or when they otherwise direct its use. Contracts for power systems generally contain only a single performance obligation. The transaction price of contracts does not contain variable considerations; therefore, the transaction price is designated completely to the single performance obligation of the contract. We generally manufacture the power systems that we sell to our customers. The Company generally ships and installs, where appropriate, the power system equipment to the customer, though some customers take control of assets before shipping occurs.
Most of our contracts to date are to enhance assets controlled by the customer. In these cases, revenue is recognized based on the percentage of completion method, as described below. Payment terms for these contracts generally match the payment terms for assets not controlled by the customer.
For contracts where revenue is recognized over time, management uses the percentage of completion input method based on costs. Specifically, percentage of completion is the ratio of total costs to date to estimated expected costs related to the project.
Some contracts to date do not qualify for revenue recognition over time because Management has determined that though the assets which the Company creates are customized to the specifications required by the customer, the assets have alternative use because the Company could theoretically find a new purchaser for the product with minimal modifications to the assets. Therefore, the Company has earned revenue for the sale and/or installation of power systems both over time as the performance obligations is satisfied, and at the point in time in which the performance obligation is satisfied.
The Company has not had experience with returns to date. Additionally, the customer is generally involved in the customization and selection of specifications for the contracted goods and services. Therefore, management considers returns as they arise.
The Company provides explicit warranties on products, in that it provides assurance that the related product will function as the parties intended. These warranties are not separately purchasable. Warranties do not constitute a separate performance obligation.
Revenue Recognition for the Design and Testing of Power Systems. Contracts for the services design and testing of power systems are generally considered a single performance obligation. This performance obligation is generally considered satisfied when we provide the design or the final report of the tests to the customer at a point in time. Payment for these contracts is generally due when the report is delivered.
Significant Judgments. Significant judgment is used when estimating expected costs for a project. Management uses prior experience from similar performance obligations to inform future cost estimates. However, as the Company is still young, and many of these performance obligations are highly customized, these estimates still require significant management judgment. Similarly, the allocation of actual labor costs to each open project at period end requires significant judgment. Records that track labor hours to specific performance obligations did not exist for fiscal years 2021 and 2022. Management used their judgment to assign actual labor expenses to uncomplete projects as of the end of each year.
Freight Costs. The Company records record both the freight billed to its customers and the related freight costs as cost of sales when the underlying product revenue is recognized. For freight not billed to its customers, the Company records record the freight costs as cost of sales. The Company considers shipping to be a fulfillment activity and not a separate performance obligation.
Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract. The Company does not currently employ salespeople, therefore sales commissions are not capitalized nor amortized over the life of the relationship with customers. However, the Company does possess multiple demo trailers, and the costs of constructing these demo trailers have been capitalized and are amortized over their expected useful life.
Disaggregated Revenue. Management considers the information that may be garnered by disaggregating revenue in the following manner to be informative:
SCHEDULE OF DISAGGREGATION OF REVENUE
Sales of services $ 28,673 $ 15,000
Sales of products 3,439,914 355,341
Total sales $ 3,468,587 $ 370,341
Reconciliation of Contract Balances. During the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021 large contracts with two major customers were signed. These contracts were not completed during the years, but partial payments were collected in the sum of $4,208,364 and $1,363,050, respectively. Additionally, as of November 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had $222,395 and $15,000, respectively of contract assets included in accounts receivable for revenues earned, but not yet invoiced.
The following table provides a summary of the changes included in deferred revenue during the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021:
SUMMARY OF CHANGES IN DEFERRED REVENUE
Beginning balance $ 1,007,709 $ -
Additions to contract liabilities 4,208,364 1,363,050
Deductions to contract liabilities (3,439,914 ) (355,341 )
Ending balance $ 1,776,159 $ 1,007,709
Remaining Performance Obligations. For contracts existing as of November 30, 2022, we had approximately $5,200,000 in unsatisfied performance obligations yet to be collected, which are expected to be fully satisfied within 1-2 years.
Cost of Revenue
The expenses that are included in costs of revenue include all raw material and in-house manufacturing costs for the products we manufacture.
Advertising
The Company expenses marketing and advertising costs as incurred. During the year ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company spent $71,724 and $167,020, respectively, on marketing, trade show and store front expense and advertising, net of co-operative rebates.
Settlement
During the year ended November 30, 2022, the Company issued preferred stock and recognized a settlement expense of $983,500 to one of the Company founders as part of a settlement agreement with a third-party. In connection with the legal settlement, the Company also recognized a gain of $20,450 related to a previous sublease arrangement.
Concentration of Credit and Business Risk
The Company maintains its cash accounts at a commercial bank located in United States. The FDIC insures $250,000 per bank for the total of all depository accounts. As of November 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had approximately $1,010,000 and $115,000, respectively, in excess of the FDIC insured amount. The Company performs ongoing evaluation of its financial institutions to limit its concentration of risk exposure. Management believes this risk is not significant due to the financial strength of the financial institution utilized by the Company.
For the year ended November 30, 2022, two vendors accounted for 29% of purchases. For the year ended November 30, 2021, one vendor accounted for 15% of purchases.
For the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, two customers accounted for 99.3% and 96%, respectively, of the Company’s revenues.
Two customers represented 100% of the balance of accounts receivable as of November 30, 2022, and one customer represented 100% of the accounts receivable balance as of November 30, 2021.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock grants that are issued to non-employees based on the estimated fair value of goods or services provided to the Company.
Income Taxes
We account for our income taxes in accordance with Income Taxes Topic of the FASB ASC 740, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
Income tax expense is based on reported earnings before income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of temporary differences between assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting purposes and such amounts recognized for tax purposes and are measured by applying enacted tax rates in effect in years in which the differences are expected to reverse.
We also follow the guidance related to accounting for income tax uncertainties. In accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, the Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more likely than not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.
Our income is subject to taxation in the United States. Significant judgment is required in evaluating the Company’s tax positions and determining its provision for income taxes. The Company establishes reserves for income tax-related uncertainties based on estimates of whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes will be due. These reserves for tax contingencies are established when we believe positions do not meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold. We adjust uncertain tax liabilities in light of changing facts and circumstances, such as the outcome of a tax audit or lapse of a statute of limitations. The provision for income taxes includes the impact of uncertain tax liabilities and changes in liabilities that are considered appropriate.
Currently, 2019, 2020, and 2021 tax years are open and subject to examination by the taxing authorities. However, the Company is not currently under audit nor has the Company been contacted by any of the taxing authorities.
Recent Accounting Standards
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02 - Leases (Topic 842) to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective December 1, 2022, for the Company, with early implementation allowed. The Company elected to adopt ASU 2016-02 effective December 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 required the Company to record lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and also disclose key information about the Company’s leasing arrangement.
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”) to simplify accounting for certain financial instruments. ASU 2020-06 eliminates the current models that require separation of beneficial conversion and cash conversion features from convertible instruments and simplifies the derivative scope exception guidance pertaining to equity classification of contracts in an entity’s own equity. The new standard also introduces additional disclosures for convertible debt and freestanding instruments that are indexed to and settled in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share guidance, including the requirement to use the if-converted method for all convertible instruments. ASU 2020-06 is effective January 1, 2022, and should be applied on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted beginning on January 1, 2021. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 effective December 31, 2021, applied on the full retrospective basis. The adoption of ASU 2020-06 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements.
The Company has reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine effects, if any on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on its financial statements.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. As of November 30, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $2,123,966, and a net loss of $944,938 for the year then ended. These facts and others raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the date of this filing. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Management’s plan of operations includes, but is not limited to, the following:
● The creation of additional sales and profits across its product lines;
● The continuation of improving cash flow by maintaining moderate cost reductions;
● Requiring 50% deposit on all purchase orders;
● Continuing positive cash flows from operating activities;

Preferred Stock
Series A
As of November 30, 2022 and 2021, there were 100,000 Preferred shares authorized, and 19,148 and 10,355 shares were outstanding, for each year respectively. Each Series A Preferred share is entitled to one vote on matters that only the Holders are entitled to vote upon.
The Preferred stockholders are entitled to receive non-cumulative preferential dividends, when and as declared by the Board of Directors. Dividends accrue at 8% per annum beginning on the original issue date, calculated as simple interest. For the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, no declarations have been made (see note 12).
The Preferred stock has a conversion price of eighty percent (80%) of the lowest price per share at which the Corporation’s securities are issued in a Change of Control Transaction or a Qualified Financing. In the event of a Change of Control Transaction that is a reverse merger or IPO, each share of preferred stock shall automatically convert into shares of the Company’s common stock and the price per share shall be equal to the amount payable on a share of Common stock in the Change of Control Transaction or IPO. If no such amount is payable, the fair market value of Common stock, as determined by the Board of Directors.
During the year ended November 30, 2021, the Company issued 9,043 shares of preferred stock to several investors for cash of $2,260,671 and 1,312 shares of preferred stock for contributed equipment.
During the year ended November 30, 2022, the Company issued 4,860 shares of preferred stock to several investors for $1,215,000 and 3,933 preferred shares valued at the per share sales price of $250 for a total of $983,500 to one of the Company’s founders, who is also an employee, as part of a settlement agreement.
Common Stock
As of November 30, 2022 and 2021, there were 1,000,000 Common shares authorized and 500,000 shares issued and outstanding, respectively.
Upon formation of the Company, the common shares authorized was 10,000. In May 2021, 2,000 common shares were issued to Robert Mount and Lynn Barney, the Company’s founders valued at $500. On May 13, 2021, the articles of incorporation were amended to increase the authorized common shares to 1,000,000, in addition to authorizing the preferred stock discussed above. Upon the filing of the amended articles of incorporation, the common shares were subject to a 250-for-1 forward stock split; thus, increasing the common shares outstanding to 500,000 shares.
NOTE 9 - INCOME TAX
For the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had $100 and $1,254, respectively, of current income tax provision and no deferred income tax provision.
The tax effect of temporary differences that give rise to deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are as follows as of November 30,
SCHEDULE OF DEFERRED TAX ASSETS AND DEFERRED TAX LIABILITIES

Components of net deferred tax assets, including a valuation allowance, are as follows as of November 30:

Deferred tax liabilities (442,084 ) (122,156 )
Total net deferred assets/liabilities $ - $ -
The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of November 30, 2022 and 2021 was $525,388 and $292,160, respectively. In assessing the recovery of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Management has recorded a 100% valuation allowance, against its net deferred tax assets, since management believes it is more likely than not that it will not be realized at the date of this statement. The Company will continue to monitor the potential utilization of this asset. Should factors and evidence change to aid in this assessment, a potential adjustment to the valuation allowance in future periods may occur. The Company records any penalties and interest as a component of operating expenses.
The reconciliation between statutory rate and effective rate is as follows as of November 30,
SCHEDULE OF RECONCILIATION BETWEEN STATUTORY RATE AND EFFECTIVE RATE
Federal statutory tax rate 21 % 21 %
State taxes 0 % 0 %
Nondeductible items 0 % 0 %
Change in valuation allowance (21 )% (21 )%
Return to provision adjustments 0 % 0 %
Effective tax rate 0 % 0 %
The Company reported no uncertain tax liability as of November 30, 2022 and expects no significant change to the uncertain tax liability over the next twelve months. The Company’s 2019, 2020, and 2021 federal and state income tax returns are open for examination by the applicable governmental authorities.
As of November 30, 2022, the Company has a net operating loss (NOL) carryforward of approximately $1,334,083. The NOL carryforward does not have an expiration. Under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“IRC Section 382”), a corporation that undergoes an “ownership change” is subject to limitations on its use of pre-change NOL carryforwards to offset future taxable income. Within the meaning of IRC Section 382, an “ownership change” occurs when the aggregate stock ownership of certain stockholders (generally 5% shareholders, applying certain look-through rules and aggregation rules which combine unrelated shareholders that do not individually own 5% or more of the corporation’s stock into one or more “public groups” that may be treated as 5-percent shareholder) increases by more than 50 percentage points over such stockholders’ lowest percentage ownership during the testing period (generally three years). In general, the annual use limitation equals the aggregate value of common stock at the time of the ownership change multiplied by a specified tax-exempt interest rate. The Company has not completed a study as to whether there is a 382 limitation on its NOLs that will limit or possibly eliminate the use of its NOLs in the future. Company’s Management has recorded a 100% valuation allowance on the entire NOL as it believes that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax asset associated with the NOLs will not be realized regardless of whether or not an “ownership change” has occurred.
NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Operating Leases
For the year ended November 30, 2021, we had two Operating leases as follows:
● Office space in Lindon, Utah, with monthly payments of $5,000 for approximately 2,790 square feet of rentable space, and a discount rate of 3.28%. As of November 30, 2021, we had 17 months remaining on this lease.
● Manufacturing space in American Fork, Utah, with a monthly payment of $40,826.52 for approximately 80,052 square feet of rentable space, and a discount rate of 3.28%. As of November 30, 2021, we had 80 months remaining on the lease.
We entered into two lease agreements each beginning June 1, 2021. The first lease agreement was for office space in Lindon, Utah, and was for a term of 24 months. The second lease agreement was for manufacturing space in American Fork, Utah, and was for a term of 86 months. The first two months of the American Fork lease agreement were rent free.
Both lease agreements contain a variable portion that covers Common Area Maintenance fees. These fees represent our proportionate share of the leased square footage relative to the total square footage of the lessor’s property. No other aspect of the lease agreements contains variable fees.
Both leases contain options for extending the leases at the end of the initially stated lease periods. The Lindon lease can be renewed for one-year terms at a three percent increase in monthly rent. When we signed this lease, we expected to renew the lease for one complete year, and thus treated the lease as a two-year lease. The American Fork lease also contains options to renew the lease, but since the lease was initially for such a long period, we could not determine that it was reasonably certain that we would renew the lease, so we treated this lease as an 86-month lease.
As these leases do not provide the implicit rate, we use an estimated incremental borrowing rate (IBR). To estimate the IBR, we used the risk-free rate of the US treasury rate, plus a premium for credit risk.
As of November 30, 2022, we had two Operating leases as follows:
● Office space in Lindon, Utah, with monthly payments of $29,012.49 for approximately 15,503 square feet of rentable space, and a discount rate of 7.52%. As of November 30, 2022, we had 71 months remaining on the lease.
● Manufacturing space in American Fork, Utah, with a monthly payment of $41,643.05 for approximately 80,052 square feet of rentable space, and a discount rate of 3.28%. As of November 30, 2022, we had 68 months remaining on the lease.
During the year ended November 30, 2022 we cancelled our lease for office space in Lindon Utah early, with no material gain or loss, and entered into a new lease agreement with the same lessor for different, larger office space, and for longer terms. Specifically, the new Lindon lease is for 72 months, and more square footage. This lease also contains options for extending the terms of the lease, but as we could not determine whether it was reasonably certain that we would extend the lease, we treated this lease as a 72-month lease.

NOTE 12 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On December 1, 2022, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of December 1, 2022, by and among Nestbuilder.com Corp., NB Merger Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Nestbuilder (“Nestbuilder”), Renewable Innovations, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Lynn Barney, as the representative of the Company’s securityholders, and Alex Aliksanyan, as Nestbuilder representative, Nestbuilder acquired the Company through the merger of NB Merger Corp. with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company continuing as the surviving wholly owned subsidiary of Nestbuilder.
Immediately prior to the Merger, there were 6,090,580 shares of Nestbuilder Common Stock issued and outstanding and warrants outstanding to acquire up to an aggregate of 10,135,000 shares of Nestbuilder Common Stock. As a result of the Merger, Nestbuilder issued to the shareholders of the Company an aggregate of 2,155,684 shares of Nestbuilder Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, each share of which is convertible into 100 shares of Nestbuilder Common Stock and votes on an as converted basis. Subsequent to the Merger, the shareholders of the Company held 97% voting control of the combined entity. As a result of the foregoing transactions, Nestbuilder underwent a change of control on December 1, 2022, which will be accounted for as a reverse merger and recapitalization of the Company.

Renewable Innovations, Inc.
Enclosed in Item 15 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K are the audited financial statements of Renewable Innovations, Inc., a Delaware corporation, for the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021. This section discusses this business of Renewable Innovations, Inc. For a discussion of our historical business of Nestbuilder.com Corp, see the Mangement’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for Nestbuilder.com Corp in Item 7.
Summary Overview
We were incorporated on June 28, 2019 and commenced operations in 2021. We had sales of $370,341 in the year ended November 30, 2021, and $3,468,587 in the year ended November 30, 2022.
On December 1, 2022, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, we were acquired by Nestbuilder.com Corp through the merger of NB Merger Corp. with and into Renewable Innovations, Inc., with Renewable Innovations, Inc. continuing as the surviving wholly owned subsidiary of Nestbuilder.com Corp. Renewable Innovations, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the wholly owned subsidiary), changed its name to Renewable Innovations Corp., and Nestbuilder.com Corp (the parent corporation) changed its name to Renewable Innovations, Inc.
Overview
We are focused on designing, optimizing, developing, and producing modular, scalable, zero-carbon green renewable solutions. Applications for scalable power vary from primary power to emergency power and mobile power.
Our initial focus is on mobile and stationary electric vehicle rapid charging.
Going Concern
As a result of our financial condition, we have received a report from our independent registered public accounting firm for our financial statements for the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021 that includes an explanatory paragraph describing the uncertainty as to our ability to continue as a going concern. From inception (June 28, 2019) through November 30, 2022, we have an accumulated deficit of $2,123,966 and for the year ended November 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $944,838. In order to continue as a going concern we must effectively balance many factors and generate more revenue so that we can fund our operations from our sales and revenues. If we are not able to do this we may not be able to continue as an operating company. At our current revenue and burn rate, we have an immediate cash need, and thus we must raise capital by issuing debt or through the sale of our stock. However, there is no assurance that our existing cash flow will be adequate to satisfy our existing operating expenses and capital requirements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Introduction
During the years ended November 30, 2022 and 2021, we had positive operating cash flows, but significant expenses related to the purchase of property and equipment. We covered our cash flow deficit by selling our preferred stock. Our need to purchase property and equipment in order to fulfill our sales orders will continue in the future, and thus we will continue to face short term and long term cash needs. We anticipate that these needs will be satisfied through the issuance of debt or the sale of our securities until such time as our cash flows from operations will satisfy our cash flow needs.
Our cash, current assets, total assets, current liabilities, and total liabilities as of November 30, 2022 and 2021 are as follows:
November 30, 2022 November 30, 2021 Change
Cash $ 1,260,199 $ 357,189 $ 903,010
Total Current Assets 2,651,211 809,583 1,841,628
Total Assets 9,489,653 6,161,713 3,327,940
Total Current Liabilities 2,950,303 2,011,218 939,085
Total Liabilities $ 6,826,448 $ 4,752,070 $ 2,074,378
Our cash increased by $903,010 as of November 30, 2022 compared to November 30, 2021. Our total current assets also increased by $1,841,628 during the same period, and our total assets increased by $3,327,940 during the same period.
Our total current liabilities increased by $939,085 as of November 30, 2022 compared to November 30, 2021. Our total liabilities increased by $2,074,378 during the same period.
In order to repay our obligations in full or in part when due, we will be required to raise significant capital from other sources. There is no assurance, however, that we will be successful in these efforts.
Cash Requirements
Our total cash on hand as of November 30, 2022 was $1,260,199. Our net cash provided by operating activities was $504,755 for the year ended November 30, 2022, but we incurred $816,745 in expenses related to the purchase of property and equipment, for net negative cash flow of $311,990 for the year. We anticipate that our expenses related to the purchase of property and equipment will continue to exceed our net cash provided by operating activities in the future. We anticipate that our short term and medium term cash flow needs will be satisfied through the issuance of debt or the sale of our securities until such time as our cash flows from operations will satisfy our cash flow needs.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in our consolidated financial statements and related notes. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2022. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences may be material.
Management considers the following policies critical because they are both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and operating results, and they require management to make judgments and estimates about inherently uncertain matters.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Our management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued since the last audit of our financial statements. Our management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on our financial statements.
