NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2018

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE A – ORGANIZATION, OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows.

Description of Business

Endurance Exploration Group, Inc. (the “Company”) was originally incorporated as Tecton Corporation (“Tecton”) under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 19, 2006, as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hemis Corporation. On December 1, 2006, Hemis declared a dividend of Tecton shares to all shareholders as of that date, and concurrently cancelled its share ownership in the Company. The effect of this dividend declaration and share cancellation was that Tecton was spun off as an independent company.

Prior to June 2008, Tecton was engaged in the exploration and acquisition of uranium properties. On or about June 1, 2008, Tecton ceased/discontinued operations of its uranium exploration activities and began to restructure the company and find suitable business opportunities. Between June 2008 and December 2013, it:

Elected a new slate of directors and appointed a new management team focused on finding a suitable business opportunity;

Attempted to reorganize its balance sheet through the US bankruptcy courts by filing a chapter 11 bankruptcy petition that was subsequently withdrawn per the court’s request;

Brought current its filings with the State of Nevada;

Brought current its financial reporting and disclosure filings with the SEC;

Effected a 1 for 40 reverse stock split of its common stock;

Amended and restated its Articles of Incorporation to increase the total authorized capital stock to 110,000,000 shares, comprised of 100,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $.01 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $.001;

Paid approximately $292,000 of outstanding debt through the issuance of 12,733,499 newly issued common shares on December 31, 2013; and

Entered into a Share Exchange Agreement and acquired the ownership interest of Endurance Exploration Group, LLC. (“Endurance LLC”), for 20,550,539 shares of common stock on December 31, 2013.

Endurance LLC was formed in 2009 to explore, from an operational and financial perspective, the feasibility and potential economic return of recovering bullion, precious metals, numismatic-grade coinage, high-value non-ferrous metals, and other valuable cargos from both historic and modern shipwrecks throughout the world.

Following Tecton’s acquisition of 100% of the membership interests of Endurance LLC, on January 2, 2014, Tecton changed its name to Endurance Exploration Group, Inc.

Endurance LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and its exploration and recovery operations are the Company’s primary focus.

On January 6, 2017, the Company formed EXPL Swordfish, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, as a wholly owned subsidiary for the purpose of pursuing a number of shipwreck and suspected shipwreck targets located in international waters off the Southeast coast of the United States, in a joint-venture with Deep Blue Exploration, LLC d/b/a Marex (“Marex”), which is further described in Note B.

The Company’s corporate headquarters is located in Clearwater, Florida.

Fiscal Year

The Company’s fiscal year was changed from January 31 to December 31 in November 2013.

Principles of consolidation and basis of presentation

These consolidated financial statements include the assets and liabilities of the Endurance Exploration Group, Inc. (formerly Tecton Corporation) and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 2018. The acquisition of the membership interests of Endurance LLC and its wholly owned Panamanian subsidiary formed to hold the registry of a research vessel occurred as of the close of its business on December 31, 2013. The formation of EXPL SWORDFISH LLC, occurred on January 6, 2017.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position as of June 30, 2018 and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 have been made. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing of this Form 10-Q, to assess the need for potential recognition or disclosure in this report. Based upon this evaluation, management determined that all subsequent events that require recognition in the financial statements have been included.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at historical cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method at rates based on the assets’ estimated useful life which is normally between three to ten years. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. Leasehold improvements are amortized over their estimated useful lives or lease term, if shorter. Equipment and major overhaul items (such as engines or generators) that enhance or extend the useful life of vessel related assets, qualify to be capitalized and depreciated over the useful life or remaining life of that asset, whichever is shorter. Certain major repair items required by industry standards to ensure a vessel’s seaworthiness also qualify to be capitalized and depreciated over the period of time, until the next scheduled planned major maintenance for that item. All other repairs and maintenance are accounted for under the direct- expensing method and are expensed when incurred.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows or appraised values, depending on the nature of the assets. As of June 30, 2018, and 2017, there were no impairment losses recognized for long-lived assets.

Inventory

Our inventory consists of artifacts recovered from the Steamship Pulaski. Inventoried costs of recovered artifacts include the costs of recovery and conservation. The capitalized recovery costs include direct costs such as vessel and related equipment operations and maintenance, crew and technical labor, fuel, provisions, supplies, port fees and depreciation. Conservation costs include fees paid to conservators for cleaning and preserving the artifacts. We continually monitor the recorded aggregate costs of the artifacts in inventory to ensure these costs do not exceed the net realizable value. Historical sales, publications or available public market data are used to assess net realizable value.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the liability method to record income tax activity. Deferred taxes are determined based upon the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial reporting and tax reporting bases of assets and liabilities given the provisions of currently enacted tax laws.

The accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements uses the threshold of more-likely- than-not to be sustained upon examination for inclusion or exclusion. Measurement of the tax uncertainty occurs if the recognition threshold has been met.

Net Earnings (Losses) Per Common Share

The Company computes earnings (loss) per share by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the year. Dilutive common stock equivalents may consist of shares issuable upon conversion of convertible preferred shares and the exercise of the Company’s stock options (calculated using the treasury stock method). As of June 30, 2018, there were 4,459,180 common stock equivalents that were anti-dilutive and were not included in the calculation. Common stock issuable is considered outstanding as of the original approval date for purposes of earnings per share computations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of financial instruments, which include cash, loans receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and advances from related parties were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Management is of the opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from financial instruments.

Comprehensive Income

The Company records comprehensive income as the change in equity of a business during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Other comprehensive income (loss) includes foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities. As of June 30, 2018, the Company had no items that represent comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock based compensation costs are measured at fair value on date of grant and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest. The Company determines the fair value of awards using the Black-Scholes valuation model.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, ASU 2014-09 was issued related to revenue from contracts with customers. The ASU was further amended in August 2015, March 2016, April 2016, and May 2016 by ASU 2015-14, 2016-08, 2016-10 and 2016-12.

The new standard provides a five-step approach to be applied to all contracts with customers and also requires expanded disclosures about revenue recognition.

In August 2015, the effective date was deferred to reporting periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 31, 2017, and will be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is not permitted.

The Company has completed its assessment of the impact of the new revenue standard on the Company's financial position and believes the new standard will not have a material impact. The Company will adopt the standard using the modified retrospective method of adoption. Revenue will continue to be recognized at a point in time when control of the asset is transferred to the customer, which is generally consistent with the Company's current accounting policies.

ASU 2014-09 provides presentation and disclosure requirements which are more detailed than under current GAAP.

In February 2016, FASB issued ASC 842 that requires lessees to recognize lease assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms of more than 12 months. The update, which supersedes existing lease guidance, will continue to classify leases as either finance or operating, with the classification determining the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement.

The ASU will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted, and is applicable on a modified retrospective basis with various optional practical expedients. The Company is assessing the impact of this standard.

The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. No new standards had any material effect on these financial statements. The accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to the date of these financial statements that were considered significant by management were evaluated for the potential effect on these consolidated financial statements. Management does not believe any of the subsequent pronouncements will have a material effect on these consolidated financial statements as presented and does not anticipate the need for any future restatement of these consolidated financial statements because of the retro-active application of any accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to June 30, 2018 through the date these financial statements were issued.

NOTE B – JOINT VENTURE

EXPL Swordfish, LLC

Effective January 9, 2017, the Company, through a newly formed, wholly owned subsidiary, EXPL Swordfish, LLC (“EXPL Swordfish”), entered into a joint-venture agreement (“Agreement”) with Deep Blue Exploration, LLC, d/b/a Marex (“Marex”). The joint venture between EXPL Swordfish and Marex is referred to as Swordfish Partners.

Marex’s contribution to Swordfish Partners includes certain shipwreck research files, sonar and other subsea survey data, navigational data, artifacts, and assistance relating to a number of shipwreck and suspected shipwreck targets located in international waters off the Southeast coast of the United States. EXPL Swordfish has agreed to further survey and inspect the shipwreck and suspected shipwreck targets, and if deemed appropriate, take actions necessary to salvage the shipwreck targets.

The economic terms of the Original Agreement called for EXPL Swordfish to provide the funding for the further inspection, salvage and operations of the joint venture. Any revenues from the joint venture will be split 90% first to EXPL Swordfish and 10% to Marex until EXPL Swordfish receives 2 times its costs and investments returned, and then a 50% split to both EXPL and Marex respectively.

On August 10, 2017, EXPL Swordfish executed a Second Amendment to Joint Venture with Marex, whereby Marex agreed to decrease its 50% share of revenues from the salvage operations of the steamship off the coast of North Carolina, the Steamship Pulaski, in exchange for $10,000 and 250,000 shares in the Company. Net proceeds of our recovery efforts for this project will be split 30% to us, 30% to Blue Water (an Independent Salvager), and 40% to Marex, after we have recovered 2 times the amount of our costs, which will be split 50/50 with Blue Water.

The joint venture is expected to terminate in one more year, unless extended by mutual agreement between the parties.

Swordfish Partners meets the definition of a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) under ASC 810. The subsections of ASC 810-10 provide that a party that controls a VIE is considered to be its primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is required to consolidate the financial results. EXPL Swordfish has determined it is the primary beneficiary of Swordfish Partners. All of the expenses incurred to date for Swordfish Partners have been funded by EXPL Swordfish. Marex has not paid any expenses on behalf of Swordfish Partners. The financial statements of Swordfish Partners has been consolidated in the reporting entities financials via EXPL Swordfish LLC.

The results of operations for Swordfish Partners for the six months ended June 30, 2018 is as follows:


		For the Six Months June 30, 2018

Revenues		$ -

Operating Expenses
Operations and research		11,188
Marketing and promotion		15,198
General and administrative		17,758
Total operating expenses		44,144

Net loss		$ (44,144)

Megalodon Entertainment, LLC

On June 27, 2018, the Company formed a joint venture with Downtown Television, Inc., for the purpose of developing, producing and marketing entertainment content relating to deep-sea exploration, historical shipwreck search, artifact recovery, and expounding upon the history of these shipwrecks. Downtown Television, and its principal David Carr, have produced many successful adventure, science and exploration, and treasure hunting shows and series including: “The Curse of Oak Island”, “Treasure Quest”, “Extinct or Alive”, and “Ancient Aliens”, among others, and his productions have been featured on networks such as The History Channel, Discovery, TLC, Animal Planet, and Lifetime. We believe Downtown’s experiences will be invaluable in helping to tell the story of the Pulaski shipwreck and other discoveries being made by EXPL and our partners. The joint venture is being formed as a new limited liability corporation that will be 50% owned each by EXPL and Downtown, and has been named Megalodon Entertainment, LLC. (“Megalodon”).

NOTE C - GOING CONCERN MATTERS

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had $8,240 and $5,120 in cash, respectively, and $534,801 and $48,894 in negative working capital, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company had a net loss of $269,606 and $218,003, respectively. Continued losses may adversely affect the liquidity of the Company in the future. Therefore, the factors noted above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements 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 the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s existence is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations and resolve its liquidity problems.

NOTE D – PREPAID EXPENSES

On May 15, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with Eclipse Group, Inc., a related party, to provide services, equipment and/or personnel in support of anticipated Endurance salvage projects, to inspect and recover one or more shipwreck cargoes located by Endurance. The Company issued 2,000,000 common shares at $.25 per share with a value of $500,000. These shares represent a prepayment for Eclipse services pursuant to a schedule of agreed upon costs and rates. Eclipse will invoice the Company on a monthly basis as services are rendered. During 2015, Eclipse rendered $150,000 of the services outlined in this agreement. As of June 30, 2018, the Company has not received any additional invoices for services outlined in this agreement, and consequently the remaining balance of $350,000 is included in other assets.

NOTE E – FIXED ASSETS

Fixed assets consist of the following at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017:


	June 30,	December 31,
	2018	2017

Vessels and equipment	$ 679,129	$ 679,129
Computers and peripherals	14,092	14,092
	693,221	693,221
Less: Accumulated depreciation	(561,665)	(537,726)
Fixed Assets - net	$ 131,556	$ 155,495

Depreciation expense was $23,939 and $48,541 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

NOTE F – ADVANCES FROM RELATED PARTIES AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Loans and notes payable to related parties at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 as detailed below are summarized as follows:

On December 31, 2013, the Company completed the purchase of 100% of the membership interests of Endurance Exploration Group, LLC (“Endurance LLC”), from its members, Micah Eldred and Carl Dilley, in exchange for 20,550,539 shares of the Company’s common stock, valued at $0.0186 per share, based upon the net book value of the assets of Endurance LLC, $381,173 as of December 31, 2013.

On December 31, 2013, as a consequence of acquiring the membership interests of Endurance LLC, the Company assumed a liability of Endurance LLC to Micah Eldred under a demand promissory note, dated June 19, 2012, in the original principal amount of $60,000, bearing interest at 5%. As of December 31, 2016, the full balance of the note plus accrued interest, totaling $73,598 was forgiven by Micah Eldred as additional contributed capital.

The Company has entered into a contract with Island Capital Management LLC, which is owned and controlled by Connect X Capital Markets, LLC (“Connect X”), to serve as its transfer agent. Connect X is owned by Micah Eldred and Carl Dilley. It did not charge the Company for its services during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 or the year ended December 31, 2017.

The Company has entered into a contract with Proxy & Printing, LLC, which is owned and controlled by Island Stock Transfer, Inc, to provide the Company with EDGAR, XBRL and Proxy services relating to its filings with the SEC.

On April 7, 2014, the Company entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement with Connect X relating to the conversion of indebtedness to Connect X in the amount of $35,000. This amount represents advances received from Connect X during 2014 and constitutes the balance of the related party debt payable to Connect X as of that date. The terms of the agreement allowed for Connect X to convert this debt into common stock at $0.25 per share. Connect X converted all of such debt into shares, as a result of which the Company issued 140,000 shares to Connect X.

On April 7, 2014, the Company entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement with Island, a company owned and controlled by Connect X, relating to the conversion of indebtedness to Island in the amount of $70,000. This amount represents advances received from Island during 2014 and constitutes the balance of the related party debt payable to Island as of that date. The terms of the agreement allowed for Island to convert this debt into common stock at $0.25 per share. Island converted all of such debt into shares, as a result of which the Company issued 280,000 shares to Island.

On June 23, 2014, the Company entered into a contract with Eclipse Group Inc. (“Eclipse”) for Eclipse to provide personnel and services to the Company in connection with the operation and monitoring of a remotely operated vehicle (“ROV”) in connection with our investigation of a suspected shipwreck located off the coast of New England. Steven Saint Amour, who serves as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, and Joan Saint Amour are the principal shareholders and officers of Eclipse. The contract provides that Eclipse will provide 2 people, including Mr. Saint Amour, for approximately four 12-hour days to operate and monitor the ROV, which will be provided by the Company. The Company will issue 100,000 shares of common stock to Mr. Saint Amour, with an agreed value of $25,000, under the contract, and reimburse Eclipse in cash for its cost for the second ROV technician.

NOTE J – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 24, 2018, the Company, operating through its joint venture, Swordfish Partners (the “Joint Venture”), initiated an admiralty action against what the company believes is the S.S. North Carolina, her hull, cargo, tackle, boilers, machinery and appurtenances, seeking to become the substitute custodian, replacing its joint venture partner, Marex, in its role as custodian. The vessel is located approximately 18 nautical miles east of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The S.S. North Carolina sank on July 26, 1840 without the loss of life, but with presumed cargo of passenger valuables and mails that may have included gold. If the Joint Venture is appointed substitute custodian by the U.S. District Court of the Middle District of Florida, the Joint Venture anticipates returning to the site during the summer and fall months of this year to conduct additional surveying, and if warranted, salvage operations of the shipwreck and its cargo.

Plan of Operation

Salvage operations of Steamship Pulaski began in December 2017, and are currently underway to recover the cargo of what we believe to be the Steamship Pulaski. It is anticipated that the cost of this salvage operation will be approximately $300,000 - $500,000. To date we have recovered approximately 500 hundred gold and silver coins, several pocket watches, personal items, dishware, and components of the vessel. This salvage operation is expected to continue through 2019. We may need additional working capital to continue the recovery of cargo from this steamship. There can be no assurances that we will be successful in securing additional working capital and therefore cannot represent we will ever be in a position to complete the recovery of cargo of what we believe to be the Steamship Pulaski.

If the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida appoints Swordfish Partners as substitute custodian of what we believe to be the S.S. North Carolina, located approximately 18 nautical miles east of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, we will return to the site during the summer and fall months of this year to conduct additional surveying, and, if warranted, salvage operations of the shipwreck and its presumed cargo of passenger valuables. If salvage operations proceed, we anticipate the cost of these salvage efforts to be between $300,000 and $500,000. We may need additional working capital to continue the recovery of cargo from this steamship. There can be no assurances that we will be successful in securing additional working capital and therefore cannot represent we will ever be in a position to complete the recovery of cargo of what we believe to be the Steamship North Carolina.

Side-scan sonar survey operations on Project Connaught began in July 2013. Over the course of this initial survey, approximately 700 square miles were digitally mapped. This sonar imagery was then post-processed and evaluated for potential targets. In October 2014, we positively identified the target of Project “Sailfish,” as that of the Steamship Connaught via video and sonar imagery. The cost of recovering the cargo of the Connaught is estimated to be $1,000,000 to $1,500,000. We need additional working capital to recover the cargo of the Connaught. There can be no assurances that we will be successful in securing additional working capital and therefore cannot represent we will ever be in position to recover the cargo of the Connaught.

In November 2013, Endurance LLC entered into a contract with the sovereign government of an island nation in the Indian Ocean. The contract provides us with a three-year period in which to operate within the territorial waters of the nation with full permission to survey for and recover the “Black Marlin” and her silver cargo. We are currently pursuing an option to extend the existing contract but there are no assurances that we will be granted a contract extension. Net proceeds of our recovery efforts, after payment of the costs to recover, transport, store and insure any recovered items, will be split between us (75%) and the island government (25%). The cost of finding and recovering the cargo of the “Black Marlin” is estimated to be $2,000,000. We need additional working capital to undertake the search for the “Black Marlin.” There can be no assurances that we will be successful in securing additional working capital and therefore cannot represent we will ever be in position to search for and recover the cargo of the “Black Marlin.”

On June 27, 2018, the Company formed a joint venture with Downtown Television, Inc., for the purposes of developing, producing, and marketing entertainment content relating to deep-sea exploration, historical shipwreck searches, and artifact recovery. That joint venture, Megalodon Entertainment, is owned 50% by the Company and 50% by Downtown Television. Downtown Television has produced many successful adventure, science and exploration, and treasure hunting shows and series, and is looking to develop content based upon the activities of the Company. The production and development of entertainment content is a very competitive arena. Thus, there are no assurances that Megalodon Entertainment will be successful in creating, producing, and/or marketing such content, or that such content will result in any revenue for the Company.

Revenue

Since inception through June 30, 2018, we have not generated any revenues. However, during this period of time, the Company has acquired a ship, side scan sonar, topside computer processing of sonar images and a remotely operated vehicle with cameras that can visually inspect things located by the side scan sonar. The Company, through contracted personnel, has also developed an operational capability for this ship and its equipment. The Company can also access, on a contract basis, additional ships, equipment and personnel on a case-by-case basis when needed. This capability allows the Company to offer aquatic research, survey, inspection and recovery, as well as maritime contract services and consulting to both the public and private sectors that contract for such equipment and services. As of the time of this filing there are no agreement or contracts for the use of the Company equipment or the services described herein and the Company needs additional working capital to continue to offer said equipment and services. Therefore, the Company cannot represent that, in the future, it will ever generate revenue from aquatic research, survey, inspection and recovery projects, as well as maritime contract services and consulting.

Expenses

Operations and research expenses

Operations and research expenses primarily include all costs within Research, which include costs for travel and consultants, and Salvage and Marine Operations, which include marina fees, repairs and maintenance, fuel, boat expenses and contract crew services. We incurred operations and research expenditures of $37,730 for the three months ended June 30, 2018. However, we only expensed $3,120 of the expenditures. The remaining $34,610 was capitalized in inventory as it related directly to the recovery of coins in the Steamship Pulaski. For the three months ended June 30, 2017 we incurred $39,119 of operations and research expenses.

Marketing and promotion expenses

Marketing and promotion expenses include all costs associated with advertising, printing and travel expenses. We incurred marketing and promotion expenses of $15,144 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $15,476 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $332.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses include all costs associated with professional, legal fees, insurance, rent, dues and subscriptions and other administrative expenses.

The primary reason for the increase was due to the issuance of 343,000 common shares to investors who had invested in a private offering in 2015, in a good faith effort to obtain releases of any potential issues or claims relating to their offering registration rights.

Depreciation

We incurred depreciation expense of $12,300 the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to $22,920 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, a decrease of $10,620. The decrease was due to multiple assets being fully depreciated in the year ended December 31, 2017.

Cash used in operations of $216,880 during the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily a result of our $269,606 net loss reconciled with our net non-cash expenses relating to depreciation expense, inventory, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Cash used in operations of $180,847 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily a result of our $218,003 net loss reconciled with our net non-cash expenses relating to depreciation expense, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other assets.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 resulted from the acquisition of equipment.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $220,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018, which consisted completely of funds advanced from related parties to facilitate operations for the period. Net cash provided by financing activities was $197,500 for the six months ended June 30, 2017, which consisted completely of funds advanced from related parties to facilitate operations for the period.

Other Recent Financings

Future Capital Requirements

Our current available cash and cash equivalents are insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements. Our capital requirements for 2018 will depend on numerous factors, including management’s evaluation of the timing of projects to pursue. Subject to our ability to generate revenues and cash flow from operations and our ability to raise additional capital (including through possible joint ventures and/or partnerships), we expect to incur substantial expenditures to carry out our business plan, as well as costs associated with our capital raising efforts and being a public company.

Our plans to finance our operations include seeking equity and debt financing, alliances or other partnership agreements, or other business transactions, that would generate sufficient resources to ensure continuation of our operations.

The sale of additional equity or debt securities may result in additional dilution to our shareholders. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of debt securities or preferred stock, these securities could have rights senior to those of our common stock and could contain covenants that would restrict our operations. Any such required additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all. If we were unable to obtain additional financing, we may be required to reduce the scope of, delay or eliminate some or all of our planned activities and limit our operations which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Research and Development

For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, we incurred expenses for research consultants and travel of $2,875 and $127.

Inflation

The amounts presented in our consolidated financial statements do not provide for the effect of inflation on our operations or financial position. The net operating losses shown would be greater than reported if the effects of inflation were reflected either by charging operations with amounts that represent replacement costs or by using other inflation adjustments.

Critical Accounting Estimates – Stock Based Compensation

We applied the provisions of FASB ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” to account for our stock-based compensation. Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the calculated fair value of the award. We measure the fair value of each stock option grant at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Inventory

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2018, we had no off-balance sheet transactions that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Going concern

The Company's financial statements are prepared using the generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had $618 and $5,120 in cash, respectively, and $534,801 and $48,894 in negative working capital, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company had a net loss of $269,606 and $218,003, respectively. Continued losses may adversely affect the liquidity of the Company in the future. Therefore, the factors noted above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements 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 the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s existence is dependent upon management’s ability to develop profitable operations and resolve its liquidity problems.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of June 30, 2018, under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed in our SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We concluded that, as of June 30, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
