NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2022
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION
Nature of Operations
Greenway Technologies, Inc., (“Greenway”, “GTI” or the “Company”) through its wholly owned subsidiary, Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc., is primarily engaged in the research, development and commercialization of a proprietary Gas-to-Liquids (GTL) syngas conversion system that can be economically scaled to meet individual natural gas field/resource requirements. The Company’s proprietary and patented technology has been realized in Greenway’s first generation commercial-scale G-ReformerTM unit (“G-Reformer”), a unique and critical component of the Company’s overall GTL technology solution. Greenway’s objective is to become a material direct and licensed producer of renewable GTL synthesized diesel and jet fuels, with a near term focus on U.S. market opportunities.
Greenway’s GTL Technology
In
August 2012, Greenway Technologies acquired
To
facilitate the commercialization process, Greenway announced in August 2019 that it had entered into an agreement to partially own and
operate an existing GTL plant located in Wharton, Texas. The plant was acquired by Mabert, a company
NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, these condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for the full year ending December 31, 2022. These condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Greenway and its wholly owned subsidiaries. There are no assets, liabilities or operations in the Universal Media Corporation and Logistix Technology Systems subsidiaries identified below. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.

Going Concern Uncertainties
The
condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates realization of
assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2022, we have an accumulated deficit of $
The outbreak of COVID-19 (coronavirus), caused by a novel strain of the coronavirus, was recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization, and the outbreak has become increasingly widespread in the United States, including in each of the areas in which the Company operates. The COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak has had a notable impact on general economic conditions, including but not limited to the temporary closures of many businesses, “shelter in place” and other governmental directives, reduced business and consumer spending due to both job losses, reduced investing activity and M&A transactions, among many other effects attributable to the COVID-19 (coronavirus), and there continue to be many unknowns. While to date the Company has not been required to stop operating, management is evaluating its use of its office space, virtual meetings and other measures. The Company continues to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak. The extent to which the COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak will impact our operations, and our ability to obtain financing or future financial results is uncertain.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company have to curtail operations or be unable to continue in existence.
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A summary of significant accounting policies applied in the presentation of the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements are as follows:
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Major additions and improvements are capitalized. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of equipment retired or sold, are removed from the accounts and any differences between the undepreciated amount and the proceeds from the sale or salvage value are recorded as a gain or loss on sale of equipment. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The
Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
may not be recoverable, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment.
An asset or asset group is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset or
asset group is expected to generate. If an asset or asset group is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured
by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds its fair value. If estimated fair value is less than the book
value, the asset is written down to the estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recognized. There were
Revenue Recognition
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASC 606 as guidance on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers in May 2014 with amendments in 2015 and 2016. Revenue recognition will 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. The guidance also requires disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company has not, to date, generated any revenues.
| 7 |
Equity Method Investment
On
August 29, 2019, the Company entered into a Material Definitive Agreement related to the formation of OPMGE.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates include allowance for collectible receivables and deferred tax valuation allowances. Actual results could differ from such estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three-months or less to be cash equivalents. There
were
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires that the Company recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax benefit (expense) results from the change in net deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or all deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company has adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10-05 Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. The ASC clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. The ASC prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The ASC provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. Open tax years, subject to IRS examination include 2016 – 2021, with no corporate tax returns filed for the years ending 2016 to 2021.
Basic loss per share has been computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding for the period. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, shares convertible for debt () have been excluded as a common stock equivalent in the diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants (), shares convertible for debt () and shares outstanding but not yet issued () have been excluded as a common stock equivalent in the diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value measurements are determined by the Company’s adoption of authoritative guidance issued by the FASB, with the exception of the application of the statement to non-recurring, non-financial assets and liabilities, as permitted. Fair value is defined in the authoritative guidance as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy was established, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three levels as follows:
Level 1 – Valuation based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
| 8 |
Level 2 – Valuation based on, observable inputs (other than level one prices), quoted market prices for similar assets such as at the measurement date; quoted prices in the market that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – Valuation based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity, therefore requiring management’s best estimate of what market participants would use as fair value.
The Company follows ASC subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”) which requires that all share-based payments to both employees and non-employees be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. At June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did t have any outstanding stock options.
Concentration and Credit Risk
Financial
instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash. The
Company places its cash with high credit quality institutions. At times, such deposits may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limit of
$
Research and Development
The
Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with ASC subtopic 730-10, Research
and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred.
Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and development costs are expensed
when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved as defined under the applicable agreement. Company-sponsored
research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. The Company incurred
research and development expenses of $ and $
Issuance of Common Stock
The issuance of common stock for other than cash is recorded by the Company at market values based on the closing price of the stock on the date of any such grant.
Impact of New Accounting Standards
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements.

No lenders requested payment for such individual promissory notes for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The updated guidance requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for most operating leases. In addition, the updated guidance requires that lessors separate lease and non-lease components in a contract in accordance with the new revenue guidance in ASC 606. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2019 and noted that the leases discussed below did meet the requirements for recording a right of use asset or liability under ASC-842 given that they were short term leases.

| Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. |
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The following discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition for the periods ending June 30, 2022 and 2021 should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements and the notes to those Financial Statements that are included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and were prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the “Risk Factors,” “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Description of Business” sections and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. Although we believe the expectations expressed in these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of our knowledge of our business, our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.
Information regarding market and industry statistics contained in this Report is included based on information available to us that we believe is accurate. Much of this general market information is based on industry trade journals, articles and other publications that are not produced for purposes of SEC filings or economic analysis. We have not reviewed nor included data from all possible sources and cannot assure investors of the accuracy or completeness of any such data that is included in this Report. Forecasts and other forward-looking information obtained from these sources are subject to the same qualifications and the additional uncertainties accompanying any estimates of future market size, revenue and market acceptance of our services. As a result, investors should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, and we do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statement.
The following discussion and analysis of financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and capital resources, should be read in conjunction with our Annual Form 10-K filed on April 11, 2022. As discussed in Note 2 to these condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements, our recurring net losses and inability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet our obligations and sustain our operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also discussed in Note 2 to the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including information with respect to our plans, intentions and strategies for our businesses. Our actual results may differ materially from those estimated or projected in any of these forward-looking statements.
In this Form 10-Q, “we,” “our,” “us,” the “Company” and similar terms in this report, including references to “UMED” and “Greenway” all refer to Greenway Technologies, Inc., and our wholly-owned subsidiary, Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc., unless the context requires otherwise.
Overview
We are engaged in the research and development of proprietary gas-to-liquids (“GTL”) synthesis gas (“Syngas”) conversion systems and micro-plants that can be scaled to meet specific gas field production requirements. Our patented and proprietary technologies have been realized in our first commercial G-ReformerTM unit (“G-Reformer”), a unique component used to convert natural gas into Syngas, which when combined with a Fischer-Tropsch (“FT”) reactor and catalyst, produces fuels including gasoline, diesel, jet fuel and methanol. G-Reformer units can be deployed to process a variety of natural gas streams including pipeline gas, associated gas, flared gas, vented gas, coal-bed methane and/or biomass gas. When derived from any of these natural gas sources, the liquid fuels created are incrementally cleaner than conventionally produced oil-based fuels. Our Company’s objective is to become a material direct and licensed producer of renewable GTL synthesized diesel and jet fuels, with a near -term focus on U.S. market opportunities.

Our GTL Technology
In August 2012, we acquired 100% of GIE, pursuant to that certain Purchase Agreement, by and between us and GIE, dated August 29, 2012, and filed as Exhibit 10.5 to this Form 10-K, and incorporated by reference herein (the “GIE Acquisition Agreement”). GIE owns patents and trade secrets for a proprietary technology to convert natural gas into Syngas. Based on a new, breakthrough process called Fractional Thermal Oxidation™ (“FTO”), we believe that the G-Reformer, combined with conventional FT processes, offers an economical and scalable method to converting natural gas to liquid fuel. On February 15, 2013, GIE filed for its first patent on this GTL technology, resulting in the issue of U.S. Patent 8,574,501 B1 on November 5, 2013. On November 4, 2013, GIE filed for a second patent covering other unique aspects of the design and was issued U.S. Patent 8,795,597 B2 on August 5, 2014. The Company has several other pending patent applications, both domestic and international, related to various components and processes relating to our proprietary GTL methods, complementing our existing portfolio of issued patents and pending patent applications.
On June 26, 2017, we and the University of Texas at Arlington (“UTA”) announced that we had successfully demonstrated our GTL technology at our sponsored Conrad Greer Laboratory at UTA, proving the viability of the science behind the technology.
On March 6, 2018, we announced the completion of our first commercial scale G-Reformer, a critical component in what we call the Greer-Wright GTL system. The G-Reformer is the critical component of the Company’s innovative GTL system. A team consisting of individuals from our Company, UTA and our Company’s contracted G-Reformer manufacturer worked together to test and calibrate the newly built G-Reformer unit. The testing substantiated the units’ Syngas generation capability and demonstrated additional proficiencies within certain proprietary prior prescribed testing metrics.
On July 23, 2019, we announced that Mabert LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Mabert”), 100% owned by Kevin Jones, acquired INFRA Technology Group’s U.S. GTL plant and technology located in Wharton, Texas (the “Wharton Plant”). Mabert purchased the entire 5.2-acre site, plant and equipment, including INFRA’s proprietary FT reactor system and operating license agreement.
On August 29, 2019, to further facilitate the commercialization process, we announced that Greenway entered into a joint venture with OPM Green Energy, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“OPMGE”), for a 42.857% ownership interest in OPMGE. In exchange for its 42.857% ownership of OPMGE, Greenway agreed to contribute a G-Reformer to the entity. The other members of OPMGE are Mabert, which owns 42.857% and Tom Phillips, our former Vice President of Operations for GIE, who owns 14.286%. Additionally, OPMGE entered a LEASE AGREEMENT with Mabert whereby OPMGE leased the Wharton Plant from Mabert. Our involvement in OPMGE was intended to facilitate third-party certification of our G-Reformer and related equipment and technology. In addition, we anticipated that OPMGE’s operations would demonstrate that the G-Reformer is a commercially viable technology for producing Syngas and marketable fuel products. As the first operating GTL plant to use our proprietary reforming technology and equipment, the Wharton Plant was initially expected to yield a minimum of 75 - 100 barrels per day of gasoline and diesel fuels from converted natural gas.
Greenway never transferred the G-Reformer to OPMGE, as required by the LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY AGREEMENT OF OPM GREEN ENERGY, LLC. Accordingly, it defaulted on its obligation under the agreement. Under the LEASE AGREEMENT between Mabert and OPMGE, OPMGE was required to pay rent and to pay the following expenses relating to the operation of the Wharton Plant:
| ● | Utilities |
| ● | Trash removal and lawn maintenance |
| ● | Taxes |
| ● | Insurance |
| ● | Maintenance, Repairs or Alterations |
The lease stated that this transaction was a “Triple Net Lease.”
If OPMG did not pay rent or the other expenses outlined above, it represented Events of Default, which allowed Mabert the right to terminate the lease. Based on the Events of Default that occurred, Mabert exercised its right to terminate the lease.
On April 28, 2020, the Company was issued a new U.S. Patent 10,633,594 B1 for syngas generation for gas-to-liquid fuel conversion. The Company has several other pending patent applications, both domestic and international, related to various components and processes involving our proprietary GTL methods, which when granted, will further complement our existing portfolio of issued patents and pending patent applications.
On December 8, 2020, the Company announced an exclusive worldwide patent licensing agreement with the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA) for all patent applications currently filed with the Patent and Trademark Office relating to GWTI’s natural gas reforming technologies developed under its sponsored research agreement with UTA.

On December 15, 2020, the Company announced additional information regarding valuable outputs produced by the company’s proprietary G-Reformer™ catalyst reactor and Fischer-Tropsch (FT) technology which combine to form the “Greer-Wright” GTL solution. Originally developed to convert natural gas into ultra-clean synthetic fuel, recent research and development activity has shown that the technology can also allow the extraction of high-value chemicals and alcohols. The chemical outputs include n-Hexane, n-Heptane, n-Octane, n-Decane, n-Dodecane, and n-Tridecane. Alcohols produced include ethanol and methanol. The company has identified worldwide industrial demand for these outputs which will significantly improve the economic return on investment (ROI) of GTL plants that are based on GWTI’s technology. GWTI is a development-stage company with plans to commercialize its unique and patented technology.
Ultimately, we believe that our proprietary G-Reformer is a major innovation in gas reforming and GTL technology in general. Initial tests have demonstrated that our Company’s solution appears to be superior to legacy technologies, which are more costly, have a larger footprint, and cannot be easily deployed at field sites to process associated gas, stranded gas, coal-bed methane, vented gas, or flared gas.
The technology for the G-Reformer is unique, because it permits for transportable (mobile) GTL plants with much smaller footprints, compared to legacy large-scale technologies. Thus, we believe that our technologies and processes will allow for multiple small-scale GTL plants to be built with substantially lower up-front and ongoing costs, resulting in more profitable results for oil and gas operators.
GTL Industry –Market
GTL converts natural gas – the cleanest-burning fossil fuel – into high-quality liquid products that would otherwise be made from crude oil. These products include transport fuels, motor oils, and the ingredients for everyday necessities like plastics, detergents, and cosmetics. GTL products are colorless, odorless, and contain almost none of the impurities, (e.g., sulphur, aromatics, and nitrogen) that are found in crude oil.
Our Company has developed a revolutionary and unique process that converts natural gas of various origins and compositions into a highly pure variety of chemicals, high cetane diesel fuel, industrial grade pure water and electrical energy. GTL technology has existed as a traditional process going back generations. This process consists of two steps. First, natural gas is converted into Synthesis Gas (Syngas) which is a non-naturally occurring blend of Hydrogen and Carbon Monoxide. The front-end part of the GTL process is called “Gas Reformation”. The output of the Gas Reformer is compressed and fed through a secondary process, called Fischer-Tropsch (FT). This secondary process is widely used in many forms in the chemical and oil industries. While FT is a common process, Gas Reformation has been the most difficult step beyond an old and traditional process typically used in refineries. The invention of our software-controlled GTL process fronted by our patented and revolutionary gas reformation unit, the G-Reformer®, makes us the innovator in GTL technology. Our patents are based on scalability, transportability, flexibility and self-sustainment based on a wide variety of input gasses and output mixtures.
The Company’s process is made of small sized modularly scalable units which are portable and self-contained unlike other GTL solutions based on Steam Methane reformation. While many companies have tried to scale Steam Methane Reformation down for use in smaller, non-refinery based GTL plants, they have been largely unsuccessful. As a result, we can build self-sufficient GTL plants at virtually any location capable of supplying wellhead or pipeline gas of sufficient ongoing volume. This gives us the ability to eliminate flaring at the source while keeping remote oil fields in production without flaring. The conversion of flaring gas to liquid allows trucks to easily move liquid chemicals, clean diesel fuel, highly clean water and the power grid to move electricity from virtually any location.
Our initial ROI studies of the market for high purity chemicals we produce can provide incredibly rapid payback of investments. It should be noted the vast majority of these chemicals produced are made in China. Further, because they originate from a barrel of oil at a refinery, they are much lower in purity.
Products created by the GTL process include High Cetane Diesel, Naphtha, Technical Grade Water, and high value, high purity chemicals. The chemicals which would be produced in the GTL plant would be vital to many industries including pharmaceutical, cosmetics, fragrances, adhesives, and others. The vast majority of these chemicals are produced in China. Such dependency makes America captive to shortfalls whether they are manufacturing related or intentional. By making these chemicals in the USA, we reduce that dependency and keep the product, the jobs, and the profits in America.
Development of stringent environmental regulations by numerous governments to control pollution and promote cleaner fuel sources is expected to complement industry growth. For example, we believe that U.S. guidelines such as the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board Act, 2006, Oilfields (Regulation and Development) Act of 1948, and Oil Industry (Development) Act, 1974 are likely to continue to encourage GTL applications in diverse end-use industries to conserve natural gas and other resources. Under the Clean Air Act (CAA), the EPA sets limits on certain air pollutants, including setting limits on how much can be in the air anywhere in the United States. The Clean Air Act also gives EPA the authority to limit emissions of air pollutants coming from sources like chemical plants, refineries, utilities, and steel mills. Individual states or tribes may have stronger air pollution laws, but they may not have weaker pollution limits than those set by EPA. Because our G-Reformer based GTL plants are not considered refineries, they do not fall under any related current EPA air quality guidelines. More information can be found under the EPA’s New Source Performance Standards which are published under 40 CFR 60.

Competition
Key industry players include: Chevron Corporation; KBR Inc, PetroSA, Qatar Petroleum, Royal Dutch Shell; and Sasol Limited. In terms of global production and consumption, Shell had the largest market share in 2021, with virtually all current production located overseas. Our technology is not designed to compete with the large refinery-size GTL plants operated by such large industry operators. Our plants are designed to be scaled to meet individual gas field production requirements on a distributed and mobile basis. According to a report released in July 2019 by the Global Gas Flaring Reduction Partnership (“GGFRP”), there are currently only 5 small-scale GTL plant technologies that have been proven and are now available for flared gas monetization available in the U.S., including: Greyrock (“Flare to Fuels”); Advantage Midstream (licensing Greyrock technology); EFT (“Flare Buster”); Primus GE and GasTechno (“Methanol in a Box”). We were not a direct part of this study, as we had not received 3rd party certification of our proprietary technology as of the date of this report.
However, the GGFRP report mentioned us as follows, “Greenway Technologies announced on July 23 that Mabert LLC, a major investor in Greenway, acquired the whole INFRA plant including an operating license agreement. The purpose of the acquisition is the incorporation and commercial demonstration of Greenway’s ‘G-Reformer’ technology. We will see whether the new team will be able to make the plant with the new reformer operational. (Globe Newswire, Fort Worth, Texas, Aug 31, 2019).”
Mining Interests
In December 2010, UMED acquired the rights to approximately 1,440 acres of placer mining claims located on Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) land in Mohave County, Arizona (such property, the “Arizona Property”), in an Assignment Agreement dated December 27, 2010, and filed as Exhibit 10.31 to this Form 10-K, between Melek Mining, Inc., 4HM Partners, Inc. and the Company, in exchange for 5,066,000 shares of our common stock. Early indications from samples taken and processed by Melek Mining provided reason to believe that the potential recovery value of the metals located on the Arizona Property could be significant, but only actual mining and processing will determine the ultimate value that may be realized from this property holding. While we are not currently conducting mining operations, we are exploring strategic options to partner or sell our interest in the Arizona Property, while we focus on our emerging GTL technology sales and marketing efforts.
Employees
As of the filing date of this Form 10-Q, we have two (2) full-time employees. Certain of these employees receive no compensation or compensation is deferred on a periodic basis by mutual written agreement. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements. We consider our employee relations to be satisfactory.
Going Concern
We remain dependent on outside sources of funding for continuation of our operations. Our independent registered public accounting firm issued a going concern qualification in their report dated April 8, 2022 and filed with our annual report on Form 10-K, which is included by reference to our Financial Statements and raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
June 30, 2022 | December 31, 2021 | |||||||
| Net loss | $ | (753,376 | ) | $ | (1,744,376 | ) | ||
| Net cash used in operations | $ | (241,056 | ) | $ | (791,906 | ) | ||
| Negative working capital | $ | (10,286,760 | ) | $ | (9,886,820 | ) | ||
| Stockholders’ deficit | $ | (10,286,760 | ) | $ | (9,886,820 | ) | ||
As of June 30, 2022, we had total liabilities in excess of assets by $10,286,760 and used net cash of $241,056 for our operating activities. This is as compared to the most recent year ended December 31, 2021, when we used net cash of $791,906 for operating activities. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The Financial Statements included in our Form 10-Q do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in existence. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient new cash flows to meet our obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing as may be required, and/or ultimately to attain profitable operations. However, there is no assurance that profitable operations, financing, or sufficient new cash flows will occur in the future.
| 18 |
Our ability to achieve profitability will depend upon our ability to finance, manufacture, and market/operate GTL units. Our growth is dependent on attaining profit from our operations and our raising additional capital either through the sale of our Common Stock or borrowing. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise any equity financing or sell any of our products at a profit. We will be unable to pay our obligations in the normal course of business or service our debt in a timely manner throughout 2022 without raising additional debt or equity capital. There can be no assurance that we will raise additional debt or equity capital.
We are currently evaluating strategic alternatives that include (i) raising new equity capital and/or (ii) issuing additional debt instruments. The process is ongoing, lengthy and has inherent costs. There can be no assurance that the exploration of these strategic alternatives will result in any specific action to alleviate our 12-month working capital needs or result in any other transaction.
While we are attempting to commence operations and generate revenues, our cash position may not be significant enough to support our daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of an offering of our securities. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement our business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for us to continue as a going concern. While we believe in the viability of our strategy to generate revenues and in our ability to raise additional funds, we may not be successful. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our capability to further implement our business plan and generate revenues.
Results of Operations
Three-months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the three-months ended June 30, 2021.
We had no revenues for our consolidated operations for the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. We reported consolidated net losses for each of these periods of $351,775 and $473,628, respectively.
Operating Expenses.
General and Administrative Expenses. During the three-months ended June 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses decreased to $247,733, as compared to $277,731 for the prior year three-months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to decreased salaries and legal fees in the period.
Research and Development Expenses. During the three-months ended June 30, 2022, Research and Development expenses decreased to $0, as compared to $48,000 for the prior year three-months ended June 30, 2021. The change was due to the expiration of the Sponsored Research Agreement (“SRA”) with the University of Texas at Arlington in the February of 2022, compared to three payments on the SRA in the prior year three month period ended June 30, 2021.
Net Loss from Operations. Our net loss from operations decreased to $247,733 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $325,731 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was due primarily to decreased salaries, legal fees and research and development expenses for the current period compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2021.
Interest Expense. During the three-months period ended June 30, 2022, interest expense increased to $174,419 as compared to interest expense of $147,897 for the prior year three-months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was due to an increase in discount amortization for the current period compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2021.
Settlement Gain. During the three-months period ended June 30, 2022, we recognized a $70,377 gain on the settlement of the Norman Reynolds legal matter. In the settlement we agreed to pay Mr. Reynolds $20,000 in cash payments, which have all been paid as of June 30, 2022.
Net Loss. Our net loss decreased to $351,775 for the three-months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a loss of $473,628 for the same three-months period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the decreased general and administrative and research and development expenses and the gain on settlement of the legal matter in the period ended June 30, 2022.
Six-months ended June 30, 2022, compared to six-months ended June 30, 2021.
We had no revenues for our consolidated operations for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. We reported consolidated net losses for each of these periods of $753,376 and $938,234, respectively.

The change was due to the expiration of the Sponsored Research Agreement (“SRA”) with the University of Texas at Arlington in the February of 2022.
Net Loss from Operations. Our net loss from operations decreased to $501,732 for the six-months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $646,099 for the prior year six-months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease was due primarily to decreased salaries, legal fees and research and development expenses for the current period compared to the prior year period.
Interest Expense. During the six-months ended June 30, 2022, interest expense increased to $322,021 as compared to interest expense of $292,135 for the prior year six-months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was due to an increase in discount amortization for the current period compared to the prior year period ended June 30, 2021.
Settlement Gain. During the six-months period ended June 30, 2022, we recognized a $70,377 gain on the settlement of the Norman Reynolds legal matter. In the settlement we agreed to pay Mr. Reynolds $20,000 in cash payments, which have all been paid as of June 30, 2022.
Net Loss. Our net loss decreased to $753,376 for the six-months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a loss of $938,234 for the same six-months period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to the decreased general and administrative and research and development expenses and the gain on the settlement of the legal matter in the six-month period ended June 30, 2022.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We do not currently have sufficient working capital to fund our expected future operations. We cannot assure investors that we will be able to continue our operations without securing additional adequate funding. As of June 30, 2022, we had $35,193 in cash, total assets of $39,785, and total liabilities of $10,326,545. Our total accumulated deficit on June 30, 2022, was $(35,519,553).
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash. In the six-months ended June 30, 2022, our working capital deficit increased by $399,940 from the recent year-ended December 31, 2021 primarily as the result of increases in accrued expenses and accrued expenses – related parties of $177,500 and accrued interest payable of $262,442.
To increase our working capital we have considered completing additional private stock sales and entering into new debt instruments.
Operating activities
Net cash used in continuing operating activities during the six-months ended June 30, 2022 was $214,056 as compared to $425,817 for the six-months ended June 30, 2021.
Investing activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the six-months periods ending June 30, 2022 and 2021 was $0.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities was $188,700 for the six-months ended June 30, 2022, consisting of stockholder advances made by Director and shareholder, Michael Wykrent, a related party of $3,500, sales of the Company’s Common Stock to private accredited investors for $180,200 and proceeds from a note payable of $30,000, offset by payments on the note payable to Wildcat of $25,000. Net cash provided by financing activities was $480,313 for the six-months ended June 30, 2021, consisting of stockholder advances - related party of $286,313, sales of the Company’s Common Stock to private accredited investors of $219,000, offset by payments on the note payable to Wildcat of $25,000.
Our accompanying Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Our general business strategy is to first develop our GTL technology to maintain our basic viability, while seeking significant development capital for full commercialization. Our ability to continue as a going concern is in doubt and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations and on our ability to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations.

Seasonality
We do not anticipate that our business will be affected by seasonal factors.
Commitments
Capital Expenditures
The last funded Scope of Work (“SOW”) under our SRA with UTA was completed in the year ended December 2019, with payments made of $120,000 to complete the work described in the prior SOW. We signed a new SRA with UTA effective March 1, 2021 which relates to the testing and commercialization phase of our GTL technology. The term of the agreement is through February 15, 2022. The first payment under the SRA was made in March 2021 for $30,000. Going forward on the 15th of each month we were to pay UTA $15,454.54 through February 15, 2022, for a total commitment of $200,000. We have paid UTA a total of $174,000 as of June 30, 2022 under the SRA.
Operational Expenditures
Employment Agreements
In August 2012, we entered into an employment agreement with our chairman of the board, Ray Wright, as president of Greenway Innovative Energy, Inc., for a term of five years with compensation of $90,000 per year. In September 2014, Wright’s employment agreement was amended to increase such annual pay to $180,000. By its terms, the employment agreement automatically renews each year for successive one-year periods, unless otherwise earlier terminated. During the three-months ended June 30, 2022, the Company paid and/or accrued a total of $45,000 for the period under the terms of the agreement.
Effective May 10, 2018, we entered into identical employment agreements with John Olynick, as President, and Ransom Jones, as Chief Financial Officer, respectively. The terms and conditions of their employment agreements were identical. John Olynick elected not to renew his employment agreement and resigned as President on July 19, 2019. Ransom Jones, as Chief Financial Officer, earns a salary of $120,000 per year. Mr. Jones also serves as the Company’s Secretary and Treasurer. During each year that Mr. Jones’ agreement is in effect, he is entitled to receive a bonus (“Bonus”) equal to at least Thirty-Five Thousand Dollars ($35,000) per year, such amount having been accrued for the period ended June 30, 2022. Both Mr. Olynick and Mr. Jones received a grant of common stock (the “Stock Grant”) at the start of their employment equal to 250,000 shares each of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), such shares vesting immediately. Mr. Jones is also entitled to participate in the Company’s benefit plans when such plans exist.
Mr. Olynick elected not to renew his employment agreement and resigned as President on July 19, 2019. Upon his resignation, we agreed to pay the balance of his Employment Agreement then due and owing over time. Accordingly, we accrued $110,084 for the balance of his Employment Agreement, against which we have paid $35,000, leaving a balance remaining of $75,084 as of June 30, 2022. In addition, Mr. Olynick had previously entered into a consulting agreement (the “Olynick Agreement”) to provide general advisory services with us on April 18, 2019, and which included terms for payment of billable time at $40.00 per hour, plus approved expenses. The Olynick Agreement was terminated when Mr. Olynick became President of the Company on May 10, 2018. We have accrued $26,310 in expenses related to such prior consulting agreement expenses as of June 30, 2022.
Effective April 1, 2019, we entered into an employment agreement with Thomas Phillips, Vice President of Operations, for a term of 12 months with compensation of $120,000 per year. Mr. Phillips reports to the President of GIE. Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Phillips is entitled to a no-cost grant of common stock equal to 4,500,000 shares of the Company’s Rule 144 restricted common stock, par value $.0001 per share, with such shares having been issued in February 2020. In addition, Mr. Phillips resigned from the Company effective December 15, 2020. We have accrued $175,000 for salary expenses outstanding as of June 30, 2022.
Effective April 1, 2019, we entered into an employment agreement with Ryan Turner for a term of twelve (12) months with compensation of $80,000 per year, to manage our business development and investor relations. Mr. Turner reports to the President of Greenway Technologies and is entitled to a no-cost grant of common stock equal to 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s Rule 144 restricted common stock, par value $.0001 per share, valued at $.06 per share, or $150,000, which we expensed as of the effective date of the agreement. Mr. Turner’s employment was terminated on September 7, 2021.

Consulting Agreements
On September 7, 2018, Wildcat, a company controlled by Shareholder Marshall Gleason, filed suit against us alleging claims arising from the Gleason Agreement, seeking to recover monetary damages, interest, court costs, and attorney’s fees. In a separate lawsuit, Wildcat filed suit claiming that the Company breached that certain Promissory Note dated on or about November 13, 2017, entered into between Wildcat as lender and Greenway as borrower, and as a result Wildcat initiated an action in County Court at Law No. 2 of Tarrant County, Texas, Cause No. 2018-006416-2. On March 6, 2019, we entered into a Rule 11 Agreement with Gleason settling both disputes, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.52 to this Form 10-K and incorporated by reference. Pursuant to the Rule 11 Agreement, the parties agreed to abate both cases until the earlier of a default of the performance of the Rule 11 Agreement or October 30, 2019, whichever be sooner. The Rule 11 Agreement provided that if we timely performed through October 15, 2019, the parties would file a joint motion for dismissal and present agreed orders of dismissal with prejudice for both lawsuits. The Company performed in all regards under the Rule 11 Agreement, however Gleason refused to sign the Wildcat Settlement Agreement at the point of the Company’s having performed its obligations. The parties’ respective counsels then mutually agreed to extend the original October 30, 2019 settlement date until at least the end of the year while the parties waited for Gleason’s signature. Gleason signed the Compromise Settlement and Release Agreement on February 4, 2020, and all litigation was dismissed by the Court on February 25, 2020. A copy of the Dismissal is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 10.59.
Paul Alfano, a director and greater than five percent (5%) shareholder entered into a consulting agreement with us on April 19, 2018 via Alfano Consulting Services (the “Alfano Agreement”), to provide board and senior management advice, including but not limited to corporate strategy, SEC regulatory adherence, sales and marketing strategies, document and presentation preparation and fund-raising support. Terms included payment of billable time at $40.00 per hour, plus approved expenses, retroactive to January 1, 2017. A copy is available by Exhibit 10.44 incorporated by reference herein. The Alfano Agreement was terminated when Mr. Alfano became a director on June 26, 2019. The Company paid all accrued Expense Reports, Interest and Consulting Fees due to Mr. Alfano (totaling $140,000), plus Mr. Alfano paid an additional $15,000 to the Company, for a total issuance of 6.2 million shares of stock on April 13, 2022 ($155,000 at $0.025 per share).
On October 19, 2020, the Company entered into a management consulting services agreement with Dean Goekel (the “Goekel Agreement” via “Analytical Professionals”), to manage engineering and vendor relationships, assist in defining the design and cost of certain capital equipment and to manage the direction of research, development and other related engineering activities. Mr. Goekel will also support the Company’s ongoing business operations, including assistance in commercialization and market implementation, strategic planning and other services. The agreed upon start date under the agreement is July 1, 2020 and the minimum engagement term was for six (6) months. After the initial term the agreement automatically renews for subsequent six (6) month terms unless the Company or Mr. Goekel terminates the agreement. Under the agreement, in exchange for Mr. Goekel’s services he will receive a minimum monthly fee of $10,000 per month in deferred compensation until such time that adequate funds are available for payment. As of June 30, 2022, we have accrued $240,000 in compensation expense related to this agreement. Additionally, under the agreement Mr. Goekel was issued stock warrants for 3,000,000 shares at a strike price of $0.03 per share effective July 1, 2020 and which expired on June 30, 2022. After meeting certain deliverables set forth in the agreement, Mr. Goekel will be issued stock warrants for 1,000,000 shares at a strike price that is an average of the stock price for the 90 days that the deliverables have been met. Mr. Goekel has not met the criteria for this agreement as June 30, 2022.
Other
Pursuant to the GIE Acquisition Agreement in August 2012, we agreed to: (i) issue an additional 7,500,000 shares of Common Stock when the first portable GTL unit is built and becomes operational, and is capable of producing 2,000 barrels of diesel or jet fuel per day, and (ii) pay a 2% royalty on all gross production sales on each unit placed in production, or one percent (1%) each to the founders and previous owners of GIE. On February 6, 2018, and in connection with a settlement agreement dated April 5, 2018, by and between the Greer Family Trust and us, which is the successor in interest one of the founders and prior owners of GIE, F. Conrad Greer (“Greer”), (the “Trust”, and such settlement agreement the “Trust Settlement Agreement”), we issued 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock and a convertible promissory note for $150,000 to the Trust in exchange for: (i) a termination of the Trust’s right to receive 3,750,000 shares of Common Stock in the future and 1% of the royalties owed to the Trust under the GIE Acquisition Agreement; (ii) the termination of Greer’s then current employment agreement with GIE; and (iii) the Trust’s waiver of any future claims against us for any reason. A copy of the Trust Settlement Agreement and related promissory note dated April 5, 2018, by us in favor of the Trust is filed as Exhibit 10.36 to this Form 10-Q and incorporated by reference herein.
As a result of the transactions consummated by the Trust Settlement Agreement, we are committed to issue a reduced number of 3,750,000 shares of Common Stock and 1% of the royalties due on production of our GTL operational units to Ray Wright, the other founder and prior owner of GIE, pursuant to the GIE Acquisition Agreement.

Mining Leases
We have a minimum commitment during 2022 of approximately $11,880 for our annual lease maintenance fees due to Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”) for the Arizona Property, with such payment due by September 1, 2022. There is no actual lease agreement with the BLM, but we file an annual maintenance fee form and pay fees to the BLM to hold our claims.
Financing
Related parties
Financing to date has been provided by loans, advances from Shareholders and Directors and issuances of our Common Stock in various private placements to accredited investors, related parties and institutions.

Impact of Inflation
While we are subject to general inflationary trends, including for basic manufacturing production materials, our management believes that inflation in and of itself does not have a material effect on our operating results. However, inflation may become a factor in the future. However, the COVID-19 virus and its current extraordinary impact on the world economy has reduced oil consumption globally, decreasing crude oil prices, to levels not seen since the early 1980’s. The economics of GTL conversion rely in part on the arbitrage between oil and natural gas prices, with economic models for many producers, including our own models, using a range of $30-60/bbl (for WTI or Brent Crude as listed daily on the Nymex and ICE commodities exchanges) to determine relative profitability of their GTL operations. While the COVID-19 virus may run its human course in the near term, we believe (as many others in the U.S. government and media believe), that the economic impacts will be long lasting and for all practical matters, remain largely unknown at this time.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
During the year ended December 2019, we entered into a revenue interest research and development venture with Mabert and an employee, Tom Phillips, OPMGE. However, based on events of default in their agreement with the Company, Mabert no longer has any formal arrangements with OPMGE or Tom Phillips. Since inception of this arrangement, we have advanced a total of $412,885 to OPMGE. Given the uncertainty of the collectability of this receivable, the Company fully reserved for this amount as of December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2022. As of December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2022, there are no assets, liabilities, or equity within OPMGE.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our Financial Statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Preparing our Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that impact the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies include revenue recognition and impairment of long-lived assets.
We evaluate our long-lived assets for financial impairment on a regular basis in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets not held for sale by measuring the carrying amount of the assets against the estimated discounted future cash flows associated with them. At the time such evaluations indicate that the future discounted cash flows of certain long-lived assets are not sufficient to recover the carrying value of such assets, the assets are adjusted to their fair values.
We believe that the critical accounting policies discussed below affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as guidance on the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers in May 2014 with amendments in 2015 and 2016. Revenue recognition will 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. The guidance also requires disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (the cumulative catch-up transition method). We adopted the guidance on January 1, 2018 and applied the cumulative catch-up transition method. The transition adjustment to be recorded to stockholders’ deficit upon adoption of the new standard did not have a material effect upon the consolidated financial statements. The Company has not, to date, generated any revenues.
Equity Method Investment
On August 29, 2019, we entered into a research and development venture, OPMGE, with Mabert and an employee, Tom Phillips. We contributed a limited license to use our proprietary and patented GTL technology and a working G-Reformer refractory unit, for no actual cost basis, in exchange for 300 membership units in OPMGE, equating to an approximately a 42.857% current interest in OPMGE, pending the expected issuance of an additional 300 membership units, equating to a net 30% ownership interest in OPMGE at that time. OPMGE is no longer operating and no longer a viable entity. There was not previously and is no book or asset value attributed to the contributed technology. Any advances made to OPMGE have been fully reserved for by the Company due to the lack of collectability.
Concentration and Credit Risk
Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and trade receivables. We place our cash and temporary cash investments with high -credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limit.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements.
| 24 |
| Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk. |
As a smaller reporting company, as defined by Rule12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information requested by this item.
| Item 4. | Controls and Procedures. |
The term disclosure controls and procedures means controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and our 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 GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:
| ● | Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the issuer; | |
| ● | 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 issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and | |
| ● | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
Our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control 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 inherent limitations in all control systems, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Also, 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.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect 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.
In June 2022, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that as of June 30, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective.
We have identified at least the following deficiencies, which together constitute a material weakness in our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022:
| 1. | We have inadequate segregation of duties within our cash disbursement control design. |
| 2. | During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we internally performed all aspects of our financial reporting process including, but not limited to, the underlying accounting records and record journal entries and internally maintained responsibility for the preparation of the financial statements. Due to the fact these duties were often performed by the same people, a lack of independent review process was created over the financial reporting process that might result in a failure to detect errors in spreadsheets, calculations, or assumptions used to compile the financial statements and related disclosures as filed with the SEC. These control deficiencies could result in a material misstatement to our interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. |
| 25 |
| 3. | We do not have a sufficient number of independent or qualified directors for our Board of Directors and a qualified Audit Committee. We currently have only two (2) independent directors on our board, which is fully comprised of five directors, and accordingly we do not yet have a functioning audit committee, as the only otherwise qualified director is not independent. Further, as a publicly traded company, we should strive to have a majority of our board of directors be independent. |
For the period ending June 30, 2022, Greenway internally performed all aspects of its financial reporting process, including, but not limited to the underlying accounting records and record journal entries and responsibility for the preparation of the financial statement due to the fact these duties were performed often times by the same people, a lack of review was created over the financial reporting process that might result in a failure to detect errors in spreadsheets, calculations, or assumptions used to compile the financial statements and related disclosures as filed with the SEC. These control deficiencies could result in a material misstatement to our interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
We are continuing the process of remediating our control deficiencies. However, the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting that have been identified will not be remediated until numerous new internal controls are implemented and operate for a period of time, are tested, and we are able to conclude that such internal controls are operating effectively. We cannot provide assurance that these procedures will be successful in identifying material errors that may exist in our Financial Statements. We cannot make assurances that we will not identify additional material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting in the future. Our management plans, as capital becomes available to us, to increase the accounting and financial reporting staff and provide future investments in the continuing education and public company accounting training of our accounting and financial professionals.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control system, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our 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 rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this quarterly report.
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above did not have a material effect on our financial results. However, the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of independent directors on our board of directors resulting in potentially ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, can impact our financial statements.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
| Item 1. | Legal Proceedings. |
On October 19, 2019 the Company was served with a lawsuit by Norman Reynolds, a previously engaged counsel by the Company. The suit was filed in Harris County District Court, Houston, Texas, asserting claims for unpaid fees of $90,378. While fully reserved, Greenway vigorously disputes the total amount claimed. Greenway has asserted counterclaims based upon alleged conflicts of interest, breaches of fiduciary duty and violations of the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (“DTPA”). On November 17, 2021, Greenway and Mr. Reynolds settled the matter agreeing to cash payments from GWTI totaling $20,000. This settlement resulted in a gain of $70,377 as of June 30, 2022.
On September 7, 2021, the Company was served with a demand for mediation and potential arbitration by Gregory Sanders, a previous employee of the Company. The demand claims Mr. Sanders had an employment agreement with the Company entitling him to certain compensation payments under the contract. No conclusion was met during mediation which occurred in the fourth quarter of 2021. Greenway is confident in its defenses and counterclaims and intends to vigorously defend its interests and prosecute its claims.
