Notes to the Financial Statements

September 30, 2020

(Unaudited)

 

 

Note 1. Basis of Presentation 

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Fourth Wave Energy, Inc. (formerly Pierre Corp.) (“we”, “our”, “Fourth Wave” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for our interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2019, as reported in the Form 10-K of the Company, have been omitted.

 

On March 20, 2020, shareholders owning a majority of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock amended the Company's Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company from Pierre Corp. to Fourth Wave Energy, Inc.

 

In March 2020 the Director General of the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic. We are still assessing the impact COVID-19 may have on our business, but there can be no assurance that this analysis will enable us to avoid part or all of any impact from the spread of COVID-19 or its consequences, including downturns in business sentiment generally.  The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and global efforts to contain its spread will impact our operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time, and include the duration, severity and scope of the pandemic and the actions taken to contain or treat the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of short-term instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and short-term notes approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs. The Company utilizes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurements, defined as follows:

 

Level 1: inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets

 

Level 2: inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

 

Level 3: inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company’s assets and liabilities recorded at fair value have been categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy.

 

The following table presents information about the Company’s liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the Company’s estimated level within the fair value hierarchy of those assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Convertible debt

 

The Company records a beneficial conversion feature related to the issuance of convertible debt that have conversion features at fixed or adjustable rates. The beneficial conversion feature for the convertible instruments is recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds as an increase in additional paid-in capital and as a reduction to the carrying amount of the convertible instrument equal to the intrinsic value of the conversion features. The beneficial conversion feature will be accreted by recording additional noncash interest expense over the expected life of the convertible notes.

  

Beneficial Conversion Features

 

If the conversion feature of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options.” In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt under ASC 470, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments under ASC 815. The Company applies the guidance in ASC 815-40-35-12 to determine the order in which each convertible instrument would be evaluated for derivative classification.

 

Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company does not believe that any recently issued effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

 

Reclassification

 

Certain reclassifications may have been made to our prior year’s financial statements to conform to our current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on our previously reported results of operations or accumulated deficit.

 

Note 2.Going Concern 

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At September 30, 2020 the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances, however there is no assurance of additional funding being available.

 

Note 3.Related Party Transactions 

 

Effective April 30, 2019, the Company agreed to increase compensation to the President of the Company to $11,500 per month for management services if funds are available or to accrue such amount if funds are not available.  The agreement is verbal and can be cancelled at any time. In addition, the President of the Company advances cash to fund operations and periodically pays expenses on behalf of the Company subject to reimbursement.

Residential Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy Overview

 

Homes and buildings use energy for heating, cooling, hot water, and electrification. A number of factors determine how much energy is required to deliver these services including the age of the structure, type of construction, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment used and its condition, lighting, appliances, and electronics used. Different types of energy are used for these end-uses, which is often based on regional energy production and availability, historical construction preferences, and local legislation. Energy sources include, but are not limited to natural gas, heating oil, utility electricity, and on-site renewable energy generation.

 

Based on home conditions and energy sources, energy efficiency improvements are often the lowest way to reduce ongoing utility and maintenance costs. Energy efficiency improvements often result in improved living comfort, for example enhanced heating, cooling, lighting, and air quality. Energy efficiency upgrades have an up-front cost but are designed to reduce ongoing utility and maintenance costs. Upgrades also often result in increased home values.


11


Homes and commercial buildings consume 40% of the energy used in the United States. Most homeowners could save between 15-25% of their utility bills by addressing wasted energy from drafts, air leaks, and outdated heating and cooling systems. Typical energy efficiency upgrades include sealing air leaks, adding insulation, installing more efficiency windows, doors, and skylights, installing and properly setting programmable thermostats, sealing ducts, tuning or upgrading heating and cooling systems, installing energy efficiency hot water heaters, upgrading household appliances and electronics, and installing energy efficient lighting.

 

Improvements in electric heat exchanger (also known as heat pump) technology have increased their usage across the country. Different types of heat pump technologies exist. Some transfer energy from water sources and others directly from the air. Water source heat pumps are often connected to geothermal systems, also known as ground source heating and cooling. Since geothermal technologies rely on transferring energy from the earth instead of creating energy, they are widely considered the most efficient heating and cooling system.

 

On-site renewable energy generation has been improving greatly for years with gains in performance and reductions in cost. The most typical type of on-site generation is photovoltaics, also known as solar energy. Panels are typically installed on a roof-mounted configuration or on an adjacent ground-mounted system. Inverters capture the solar energy and transform it into electricity. Most residential systems are tied to the existing electrical utility grid for back-up and resiliency when solar energy is not being generated.

 

The sale of solar and geothermal energy system has benefitted from tax credits which lowers the effective cost of these systems to homeowners.  However, these tax credits are set to expire in 2021.  Although there is hope that these tax credits will be extended, there can be no assurance that they will be extended in which case the net cost of the GSP system to the homeowner will increase significantly.

 

 

Fourth Wave Energy

 

On March 16, 2020 we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Fourth Wave Energy, Inc. for 6,200,000 restricted shares of our common stock.

 

Fourth Wave Energy’s GSP system is designed to significantly reduce energy consumption and associated greenhouse gas emissions in residences and commercial buildings, while improving indoor air quality. By improving the building envelope, reducing energy loads, and generating on-site renewable solar energy the system offers a highly-efficiency whole-home energy upgrade.

 

The GSP system includes:

 

·home energy audit and environmental analysis; 

·improved building envelope, including upgrades to insulation, sealing, and air tightness; 

·on-site photovoltaic power generation; 

·efficient heat pump heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) technology; 

·LED lighting;  

·heat pumps for domestic hot water heating; 

·energy recovery ventilation systems; 

·advanced air filtration and distribution; and 

·220v electric vehicle charger 

 

Optional equipment and services includes:

·Battery storage system 

·Hot tub and pool heaters 

·Xeriscape and landscape design 

·ground source geothermal technology for heating and cooling; 


12


·air source heating and cooling depending on home conditions and requirements; 

 

We plan to use a sales force that will market the GSP system directly to homeowners.

 

We will use independent subcontractors to replace a home’s existing heating and air conditioning system with the GSP system.  We estimate that the removal of an existing HVAC system and the installation of the GSP system will cost approximately $39,000, after tax credits, and will require approximately 14 to 21 days to complete.

 

As of November 20, 2020 we had not sold any GSP Systems.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and (ii) the reported amount of expenses recognized during the periods presented. Adjustments made with respect to the use of estimates often relate to improved information not previously available. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of financial statements; accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of costs and expenses during the reporting period.  Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Going Concern

 

The unaudited financial statements accompanying the report have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that our company will be able to meet our obligations and continue our operations for our next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and the financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should we be unable to continue as a going concern. At September 30, 2020, we have had no revenue and have not yet achieved profitable operations and expect to incur further losses in the development of our business, all of which raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that we will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances, however there is no assurance of additional funding being available.

 

There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations. We are pursuing various financing alternatives to meet our immediate and long-term financial requirements. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease the operation of our business

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures 

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the direction and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2020. The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable level of assurance of reaching its desired disclosure control objectives. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2020.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
