GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S LIQUIDITY PLANS

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S LIQUIDITY PLANS

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had cash of $276,085 and a working capital deficit (current liabilities in excess of current assets) of $21,320,881. The accumulated deficit as of March 31, 2023 was $366,294,690. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Until the Company’s consummation of the Empire acquisition, the Company had experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations. The Company believes it could generate positive cashflows from operations going forward but in the event the market for recycled metals experiences a sharp downturn or if it experiences delays in its growth plans, the Company may need to raise additional capital. The Company’s failure to raise capital as and when needed could have a negative impact on its financial condition and its ability to pursue its business strategy.

The Company believes that the current cash on hand of $276,085 and anticipated cash generated from operations could be sufficient to conduct planned operations for one year from the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In addition, management believes they can raise additional capital, if necessary, through both equity and debt financing.

If the Company raises additional funds by issuing equity securities, its stockholders would experience dilution. Additional debt financing, if available, may involve covenants restricting its operations or its ability to incur additional debt. Any additional debt financing or additional equity that the Company raises may contain terms that are not favorable to it or its stockholders and require significant debt service payments, which diverts resources from other activities. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital will be impacted by market conditions and the price of the Company’s common stock.
