General Enterprise Ventures, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2025

Note 1 – Organization, Business and Going Concern

General Enterprise Ventures, Inc., was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on March 14, 1990. On June 3, 2021, after approval by the board of directors and shareholders of the Company, the Company was redomiciled to the State of Wyoming. On October 11, 2021, after approval by the board of directors and shareholders of the Company, the Company was renamed General Enterprise Ventures, Inc., in the State of Wyoming. When used in these notes, the terms “GEVI,” “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” mean General Enterprise Ventures, Inc. and all entities included in our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Corporate Changes

Effective June 25, 2024, the Company formed and organized a wholly owned subsidiary, GEVI Insurance Holdings Inc., an Ohio corporation (“GEVI Insurance”), to enter the wildfire insurance markets utilizing the Company’s flame retardant and flame suppression product. Effective February 21, 2025, the Company formed MFB Insurance Company, Inc., a Hawaii corporation and organized it as a wholly owned subsidiary of GEVI Insurance to act as a captive insurance company to enter the wildfire insurance market.

Business

Our product is CitroTech™, which is utilized in wildfire defense and to treat lumber to inhibit fire. In addition, we are developing a coating to treat lumber during manufacture prior to distribution. Our product is sustainable, because it is made of food-grade ingredients derived from corn, fruits and other renewable sources. Our current customer base is mainly comprised of homeowners, developers and fire departments. Homeowners and developers use our product to proactively spray wood framing during construction to treat the property prior to the occurrence of fires. We install systems to deploy our product remotely to provide a buffer zone around properties to prevent combustion. Fire Departments use our product to proactively spray around controlled burns and areas that traditionally have active wildfire risk to prevent expansion of the burn area.

Going Concern

Our unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses since inception and has a net loss of approximately $ 10.9 million and revenue of $ 1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The Company also has working capital of approximately $ 49,000 as of March 31, 2025. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the unaudited consolidated financial statements are issued.

Management recognizes that the Company must obtain additional resources to successfully implement its business plans. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company completed financings from the issuance of Series C preferred stock, and convertible notes, generating net proceeds of approximately $ 3.9 million. However, the Company’s existing cash resources and income from operations, are not expected to provide sufficient funds to carry out the Company’s operations and business development through the next twelve (12) months.

Management plans to continue to raise funds and complete a public offering to support our operations in 2025. However, no assurances can be given that we will be successful. If management is not able to timely and successfully raise additional capital and/or complete a public offering, the implementation of the Company’s business plan, financial condition and results of operations will be materially affected. These unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the unaudited interim financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring entries necessary for a fair statement of the periods presented for: (a) the financial position; (b) the result of operations; and (c) cash flows, have been made in order to make the unaudited interim financial statements presented not misleading. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operations for a full year. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2024, as filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of General Enterprise Ventures, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Reclassification

Certain amounts have been reclassified to improve the clarity and comparability of the financial statements. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported total assets, liabilities, equity, net income (loss), or cash flows for any periods presented.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of 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 financial statements. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.

Segment Information

Our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is the chief operating decision maker who reviews financial information on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. Accordingly, we determined we operate in a single reporting segment - environmentally sustainable flame retardant and flame suppression company for the residential home industry.

Our CEO assesses performance and decides how to allocate resources primarily based on consolidated net income, which is reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Total assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets represent our segment assets.

Table of Contents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of balance sheet presentation and reporting of cash flows, the Company considers all unrestricted demand deposits, money market funds and highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of less than 90 days to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company had cash of $ 3,740,336 and $ 775,133 , as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Periodically, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions more than the federally insured limit of $ 250,000 per institution. The amount in excess of the FDIC insurance as of March 31, 2025, was approximately $ 2.7 million. The Company has not experienced losses on account balances and management believes, based upon the quality of the financial institutions, that the credit risk with regard to these deposits is not significant.

Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. This value includes an appropriate allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts to reflect any expected loss on the trade accounts receivable balances and charged to the provision for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make the required payments for services. Accounts with known financial issues are first reviewed and specific estimates are recorded. The remaining accounts receivable balances are then grouped in categories by the number of days the balance is past due, and the estimated loss is calculated as a percentage of the total category based upon past history. Account balances are charged against the allowance when it is probable that the receivable will not be recovered.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded no bad debt expense, and no allowance for credit losses as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. The hierarchy requires the Company to use observable inputs when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs, when determining fair value. The three tiers are defined as follows:

Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly in the marketplace for identical or similar assets and liabilities; and

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market data, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions.

The Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and loans payable, are carried at historical cost. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the carrying amounts of these instruments approximated their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Convertible Notes

The Company bifurcates conversion options from their host instruments and accounts for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments if certain criteria are met. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. We evaluate all of our financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For our derivative financial instruments, the Company used a Binomial Lattice model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within twelve (12) months of the balance sheet date.

Warrants

For warrants that are determined to be equity-classified, we estimate the fair value at issuance and record the amounts to additional paid in capital (potentially on a relative fair value basis if issued in a basket transaction with other financial instruments). Warrants that are equity-classified are not subsequently remeasured unless modified or required to be reclassified as liabilities.

Revenue

The Company recognizes revenue from its contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company recognizes revenues when satisfying the performance obligation of the associated contract that reflects the consideration expected to be received based on the terms of the contract.

Revenue related to contracts with customers is evaluated utilizing the following steps:

i. Identify the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

ii. Identify the performance obligations in the contract;

iii. Determine the transaction price;

iv. Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract;

v. Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, our revenues currently consist of a sale of product used for lumber products for fire prevention and an installation of self-contained sprinkler systems. Revenue is recognized at a point in time, that is which the risks and rewards of ownership of the product transfer from the Company to the customer.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if potentially dilutive securities had been issued.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the following common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the result of the computation was anti-dilutive.

Deferred Offering Costs

Pursuant to ASC 340-10-S99-1, costs directly attributable to an offering of equity securities are deferred and would be charged against the gross proceeds of the offering as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. Deferred offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting, and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the proposed public offering. Should the proposed public offering prove to be unsuccessful, these deferred costs, as well as additional expenses to be incurred, will be expensed.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for employee and non-employee stock awards under ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, whereby equity instruments issued to employees for services are recorded based on the fair value of the instrument issued and those issued to nonemployees are recorded based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, which is generally the vesting period. If an award is granted, but vesting does not occur, any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed in the period related to the termination of service.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, stock-based compensation was recognized as follows:

On July 15, 2024 and August 15, 2024, the Company entered into seventeen (17) convertible notes ($ 1,121,000 ) and warrants ( 1,401,250 shares of common stock). The convertible notes have a term of twelve (12) months, at an interest rate of 10 % per annum and warrants are with a term of five (5) years, at exercise price of $ 0.50 per share. The outstanding principal amount of convertible notes and unpaid interest is convertible at conversion price of the lesser of (i) $0.40 or (ii) a 30% discount to the price of shares issued in connection with a qualified financing. In November and December, the Company entered into three (3) convertible notes ($ 175,000 ) and warrants ( 218,750 shares of common stock).

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company recorded accrued interest of $ 110,981 and $ 50,723 , respectively.

The Company determined that the conversion feature met the definition of a liability in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Stock and therefore bifurcated the embedded conversion option once the note becomes convertible and accounted for it as a derivative liability. The fair value of the conversion feature was recorded as a debt discount and “day 1” derivative loss for the excess amount of debt discount and amortized to interest expense over the term of the note.

Since our inception, we have incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from our operations. Our net loss was $10.9 million and $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we completed a debt offering and an equity offering which generated net proceeds of approximately $3.7 million and $0.3 million respectively.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the current liabilities consisted of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $530,000 and $187,000, respectively, convertible notes net of discount of $542,000 and $196,000, respectively, convertible note – related parties of $783,000 and $577,000, respectively, accrued interest – related parties of $31,000 and $0, respectively financing loan of $0 and $97,000, respectively, derivative liability of $2.9 million and $1.1 million, respectively, and current portion of operating lease liability of $29,000 and $50,000, respectively.

The increase in working capital in 2025 was primarily due to an increase in cash and accounts receivable offset by an increase in the convertible notes and derivative liability related to convertible notes. The Company had net loss and negative cash flows from our operations. In 2025, the Company generated funds from more debt financing than equity financing, however, the carrying value of convertible notes included of unamortized debt discount of $4.6 million. Considering this unamortized discount, the Company still had capital deficiency of $4.6 million as of March 31, 2025.

Contractual Obligations

The material terms of this convertible note indebtedness are, (i) a 12-month maturity; (ii) 10% interest per annum, capitalized on the maturity date; (iii) conversion rights in the amount of the principal, either (x) divided by 0.40 or (y) a 30% discount to the price sale of its Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement filed with the SEC and listing of the Common Stock on national securities exchange; and (iv) warrant coverage for five years at the rate of 1.25 shares of Common Stock for each dollar of principal, at an exercise price of $0.50 per share.

Convertible notes – related party

On December 31, 2024, the Company issued convertible note of $577,000 to a related party, in exchange for the amount due to related party. The convertible note has a term of twelve (12) months, at an interest rate of 10% per annum. The outstanding principal amount of convertible note and unpaid interest is convertible at a fixed conversion price of $0.36.

In February 2025, the Company entered into one (1) subscription agreement for convertible notes ($2,000,000) and warrants (2,500,000 shares of common stock) with a related party. The convertible note has a term of twelve (12) months, at an interest rate of 10% per annum and warrants are with a term of five (5) years, at exercise price of $0.50 per share. The outstanding principal amount of convertible notes and unpaid interest is convertible at a fixed conversion price of $0.40.

Going Concern

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared (i) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and (ii) assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant income to date. The Company is subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with a business with no substantive revenue, as well as limitations on its operating capital resources. These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. In light of these matters, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise capital and generate revenue and profits in the future.

Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. In consultation with its legal counsel as appropriate, our management assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against us or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, we, in consultation with legal counsel, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in our financial statements. If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is likely, but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), which require management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. We believe our most critical accounting estimates relate to the following:

·

Fair Value of Convertible Notes

·

Fair Value of Warrant to Purchase Common Stock

While our estimates and assumptions are based on our knowledge of current events and on actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may ultimately differ from these estimates and assumptions. For a discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies, refer to Note 2 of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.

Fair Value of Convertible Notes

The Company determined that the conversion feature, embedded in convertible notes, met the definition of a liability in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Stock and therefore bifurcated the embedded conversion option once the note become convertible and accounted for it as a derivative liability. The fair value of the conversion feature was recorded as a debt discount and “day 1” derivative loss for the excess amount of debt discount and amortized to interest expense over the term of the note.

For the conversion feature classified as a liability, the Company uses a Binomial Lattice valuation model to value the derivative instrument at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The use of this valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions. Any change to these inputs could produce significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

Fair Value of Warrant to Purchase Common Stock

The Company has issued warrants to investors in our debt offerings.

We evaluate all warrants issued to determine the appropriate classification under ASC 480 and ASC 815. In addition to determining classification, we evaluate these instruments to determine if such instruments meet the definition of a derivative.

For warrants that are determined to be equity-classified, we estimate the fair value at issuance and record the amounts to additional paid in capital (potentially on a relative fair value basis if issued in a basket transaction with other financial instruments). Warrants that are equity-classified are not subsequently remeasured unless modified or required to be reclassified as liabilities. The classification of all outstanding warrants, including whether such instruments should be recorded as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period.

The warrants are valued using a Black Scholes valuation model. The use of this valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions. Any change to these inputs could produce significantly higher or lower fair value measurements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed 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 officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

An evaluation was conducted under the supervision and with the participation of our management of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2025. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms as a result of the following material weaknesses: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee, (2) lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (3) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and (4) management consists of only six (6) individuals which may result in control deficiencies and the absence of sufficient other mitigating controls.

A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Changes in Internal Controls

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional improvements as necessary.
