PART I

ITEM 1.BUSINESS

Bitech Technologies Corporation (formerly, Spine Injury Solutions Inc.) (the “Company”, “we” or “us”) was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on March 4, 1998. In connection with the Company’s planned expansion of its business following the completion of the acquisition of Bitech Mining Corporation, a Wyoming corporation (“Bitech Mining”), it filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 29, 2022 to change its corporate name to Bitech Technologies Corporation.

Currently, we have refocused our business development plans as we seek to position ourselves as a global technology solution enabler dedicated to providing a suite of green energy solutions with industry focus on green data centers, commercial and residential utility, EV infrastructure, and other renewable energy initiatives. We changedplan to pursue these innovative energy technologies through research and development, planned acquisitions of other green energy technologies and plans to become a grid-balancing operator using Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) solutions and applying new green technologies in power plants as a technology enabler in the green energy sector. While participating in the clean energy economy, we are seeking business partnerships with defensible technology innovators and renewable energy providers to facilitate investments, provide new market entries toward emerging-growth regions and implement or manufacture these innovative, scalable energy system solutions with technological focuses on smart grids, Building Energy Management System (BEMS), energy storage, and EV infrastructure.

To accelerate growth of a planned intellectual property (IP) portfolio through acquisition strategies, we plan to execute our name“Smart Acquisition Model” depicted in the diagram below with selected acquisitions of defensible technologies accompanied with visionary management teams who can demonstrate a common goal with us in order to unlock the full potential with capital infusion, accelerate growth. To achieve our development plans, we plan to incubate those acquired companies toward foreseeable plans for mergers and acquisitions, formation of global joint ventures, while facilitating new market entry to today’s fastest growing Southeast Asia region. With this acquisition model, we expect to build a valuable technology portfolio of IP assets in various innovative green energy technologies, leveraging our network of global capital partners with low-cost manufacturing capacity and oversea outsourcing technical talents from Spine Pain Management Inc.our niche sources in Vietnam.

We plan to execute a “Dual Growth Business Model” as depicted in the diagram below encompassing (1) IP portfolio growth which includes technology licensing or technology acquisitions, enhanced with our plans to carry out research and development for specific applications, and (2) sustainable revenue growth by executing planned BESS acquisitions via joint ventures with capital partners to collect joint venture income from BESS operations or Vietnam-based manufacturing partners which can manufacture products derived from our technology solutions.

In light of these initiatives and other reasons noted below, the Company has, however, elected to discontinue its efforts to commercialize the electric power generation and charging system (the “Tesdison Technology”) it formerly licensed from SuperGreen Energy Corporation (“SuperGreen”) pursuant to the Patent & Technology Exclusive and Non-Exclusive License Agreement dated January 15, 2021, as amended, entered into between SuperGreen and the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary Bitech Mining Corporation (“Bitech Mining”) (the “SuperGreen License”). The Company has determined that the Tesdison Technology was not functional nor was it capable of being developed into a commercially viable product as had been represented to the Company by SuperGreen, its founder Calvin Cao, and his brother Michael Cao, leading up to Bitech Mining entering into the SuperGreen License. In addition, the Company will temporarily pause the further development of Intellisys-8, the Company’s planned chipset and related software that had been designed to reduce power consumption and heat in computer systems and accelerate their computational speed due to the currently unfavorable market conditions within the cryptocurrency market.

Acquisition of Bitech Mining Corporation

The Company acquired Bitech Mining on March 31, 2022 (the “Closing Date”) through a share exchange pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) by and among the Company, Bitech Mining, each of Bitech Mining’s shareholders (each, a “Seller” and collectively, the “Sellers”), and Benjamin Tran, solely in his capacity as Sellers’ Representative (“Sellers’ Representative”). The transaction contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement is hereinafter referred to as the “Share Exchange”). The Share Exchange Agreement provides that the Company will acquire from the Sellers, an aggregate of 94,312,250 shares of Bitech Mining’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Bitech Mining (collectively, the “Bitech Mining Shares”). In consideration of the Bitech Mining Shares, the Company issued to the Sellers an aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s newly authorized Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). Each Bitech Mining Share shall be entitled to receive 0.09543 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into 53.975685 shares (an aggregate of approximately 485,781,300) of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Company Common Stock”) upon filing of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation increasing the number of the Company’s authorized common stock so that there are a sufficient number of shares of Company Common Stock authorized but unissued to permit a full conversion of all the Series A Preferred Stock. Effective as of June 27, 2022, the Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted into 485,781,168 shares of Company Common Stock following the June 27, 2022 filing of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation increasing the number of the Company’s authorized common stock to 1,000,000,000 shares. Upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Sellers held, in the aggregate, approximately 96% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company capital stock on a fully diluted basis.

The Share Exchange was treated as a recapitalization and reverse acquisition for financial reporting purposes, and Bitech Mining is considered the acquirer for accounting purposes. As a result of the Share Exchange and the change in our business and operations, a discussion of the past financial results of our predecessor, Spine Injury Solutions Inc., is not pertinent, and under applicable accounting principles, the historical financial results of Bitech Mining, the accounting acquirer, prior to the Share Exchange are considered our historical financial results.

The following agreements were entered into in connection with the acquisition of Bitech Mining:

Management Services Agreement. On the Closing Date, the Company, Quad and Peter L. Dalrymple (“Dalrymple”), a former director of the Company, entered into a Management Services Agreement (the “MSA”) whereby Dalrymple agreed to act as the general manager of the video recording operations of Quad and collect certain accounts receivable of the Company (the “Services”). In exchange for providing the Services, the Company agreed to pay Dalrymple a fee equal to the net revenues derived from these operations after payment of all operating expenses related to such operations. The term of the MSA commences on the Closing Date and continues until the earlier to occur of the following: (i) 90 days after the Closing Date; (ii) the Company and Dalrymple’s mutual written consent; or (iii) any material breach of the MSA by either party, provided that the breaching party has been provided written notice of such breach and has failed to cure such breach within ten (10) days of receipt of such written notice.

Amendment to the Note. On the Closing Date, the Company, Quad and Dalrymple, entered into an Amendment to the Secured Promissory Note (the “Note Amendment”) whereby Dalrymple agreed that (i) the principal and accrued interest outstanding under the Secured Promissory Note dated August 31, 2020 as amended on October 1, 2015.29, 2021 issued by the Company in favor of Dalrymple (collectively, the “Note”) is $95,000 as of the Closing Date, (ii) the date on which the outstanding principal and accrued interest is due is 90 days after the Closing Date, (iii) any obligations of (x) the Company that become due and owing to Bitech Mining or the Sellers under Section 4.07(c) of the Share Exchange Agreement or (y) that become due and owing under Section 6.12 of the MSA may be offset against any amounts owed by the Company or Quad under the Note and (iv) all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to the Note, or the negotiation, execution or performance of the Note (including any representation or warranty made in or in connection with the Note or as an inducement to enter into the Note or this Amendment), may be made only against Quad, and SPIN who is not a party to the Note as of the Closing Date, including without limitation any past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, manager, partner, equity holder, affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of SPIN (“SPIN Parties”), shall have no liability (whether in contract or in tort, in law or in equity, or based upon any theory that seeks to impose liability of the SPIN Parties) for any obligations or liabilities arising under, in connection with or related to the Note or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of the Note or its negotiation or execution, and Dalrymple waives and releases all such liabilities, claims and obligations against any such SPIN Parties.

We are a technology, marketing, billing,Amendment to the Security Agreement. On the Closing Date, the Company, Quad and collection company facilitating diagnostic servicesDalrymple, entered into an Amendment to Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement Amendment”) whereby the parties to that agreement agreed that (i) Quad shall be included with the Company as an additional debtor for patients who have sustained spine injuries resulting from traumatic accidents.  We deliver turnkey solutionsall purposes in the Security Agreement entered into between the Company and Dalrymple dated August 31, 2020 (the “Security Agreement”), (ii) Quad’s collateral obligations under the Security Agreement shall only relate to spine surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers for necessary and appropriate treatment of musculo-skeletal spine injuries resulting from automobile and work-related accidents.  Our goal is to become a leader in providing technology and monetizing services to spine and orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers to facilitate proper treatment of their injured clients.  By monetizing the providersits accounts receivable, which includes diagnostic testing and non-invasive surgical care, patients arethe collateral described relating to “Pledged Securities” as defined in the Security Agreement shall not unnecessarily delayed or prevented from obtaining needed treatment.  By facilitating early treatment through affiliated doctors,apply to Quad’s obligations under the Security Agreement, (iii) the Company’s pledge of its accounts receivables as provided for in the Security Agreement will be limited solely to the Company’s accounts receivables in existence as of March 27, 2022 at 11:59 P.M. ET, and shall not apply to any after acquired accounts receivables and (iv) the Company is authorized to file an amended financing statement to reflect the terms of Security Agreement Amendment and Quad shall promptly file a financing statement reflecting the terms set for in such amendment.

Disposition of Quad Video Assets

On June 30, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), we believe that health conditions can be prevented from escalating and injured victims can be quickly placed oncompleted the road to recovery.  Through our affiliate system, we facilitate spine surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers to provide reasonable, necessary, and appropriate treatments to patients with musculo-skeletal spine injuries. We assist the centers that provide the spine diagnostic injections and treatment and pay the doctors a fee for the medical procedures they performed. After a patient is billed for the procedures performed by the affiliated doctor, we take controlsale of all of the patients’ unpaid bill and oversee collection. In most instances, the patient is a plaintiff in an accident case, where the patient is represented by an attorney. Typically, the defendant (and/or the insurance companyassets of the defendant) in the accident case pays the patient’s bill upon settlement or final judgment of the accident case. The payment to us is made through the attorney of the patient. In most cases, we must agree to the settlement price and the patient must sign off on the settlement. Once we are paid, the patient’s attorney can receive payment for his or her legal fee.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the decision was made to discontinue funding future medical procedures due to our cash position, and we have not funded any procedures in 2019 or 2020 and will not do so unless we can access additional capital. However, we continue to actively pursue the collection of previously funded procedures. Without additional funding, there is no guarantee that we can continue as a going concern.

We own a patented device and process by which a video recording system is attached to a fluoroscopic x-ray machine, the “four camera technology,” which we believe can attract additional physicians and patients as well as provide us with additional revenue streams with our new programs designed to assist in treatment documentation.  We have refined the technology, through research and development, resulting in a fully commercialized Quad Video Halo System 3.0 (“QVH”).  Using this technology, diagnostic and treatment procedures are recorded from four separate video feeds that capture views from both inside and outside the body, and a video is made which is given to the patient’s representative to verify the treatment received.   

In September 2014, we created a wholly owned subsidiary Quad Video Halo, Inc. (“Quad Video”) pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement entered into among Quad Video, Quad Video Holdings Corporation (“Quad Holdings”) and Peter Dalrymple, a former officer, director and substantial shareholder of the Company (“Dalrymple,” together with Quad Holdings, collectively, the “Buyers”) dated as of the Effective Date (the “Quad Video APA”). Pursuant to the terms of the Quad Video APA, Quad Video sold all of its assets to Quad Holdings which included its accounts receivables, fixed assets, intangible assets and all customer lists associated with Quad Video’s business (the “Quad Video Assets”).

Under the terms of the Quad Video APA, the amount of the consideration paid to the Company for purchase of the Quad Video Assets was Mr. Dalrymple’s cancellation of a promissory note with an approximate principal balance of $8,789 plus accrued interest as of the Effective Date issued by the Company to Mr. Dalrymple and the cancellation of a security agreement securing payment of that note pursuant to a Secured Promissory Note and Security Agreement Cancellation Agreement and assumed all liabilities related the Quad Video’s operations and the Quad Video Assets and terminated the Management Services Agreement entered into among the Company, Quad Video and Dalrymple dated March 31, 2022 pursuant to a Management Services Termination Agreement.

In addition, on the Effective Date, we completed the sale of certain accounts receivables related to our spine pain management business pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement entered into among the Company, SPIN Collections LLC, a company owned or controlled by Dalrymple and Dalrymple (the “SPIN Accounts Receivable APA”). The purpose of this entity is to hold certain company assets affiliatedconsideration received by the Company in connection with the QVH units.  SPIN Accounts Receivable APA was $10.00 and other good and valuable consideration that was nominal and immaterial.

We pay the healthcare providers for medical services performed. The patients are billed based on Current Procedural Terminology (“CPT”) codes for the medical procedure performed. CPT codes are numbers assigned to every task and service a medical practitioner may provide to a patient including medical, surgical and diagnostic services. CPT codes are developed, maintained and copyrighted by the American Medical Association. Patients are billed at the normal billing amount, based on national averages, for a particular CPT code procedure.

The clinic facilities where

Employees

As of December 31, 2022, we had two full-time employees. To date, we have not experienced any work stoppages and we consider our spine injury diagnostic centers operaterelationship with our employees to be good. None of our employees are owned or leasedeither represented by a medical affiliatelabor union or third party.  We have no ownership interest in these clinic facilities, nor do we have any responsibilities towards building or operating the clinic facilities. 

Marketing

Direct contact with key spine surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers who are highly visible in their communities is an important step in targeting appropriate referral sources. Additional marketing to spine surgeons is done at national medical meetings and trade shows.

Governmental Regulation

All of the medical diagnostic procedures offered at the clinics are performed by independent medical contractors, who are subject to regulation by a number of governmental entities at the federal, state, and local levels. We are subject to laws and regulations relating to business corporations in general. In recent years, Congress and state legislatures have introduced an increasing number of proposals to make significant changes in the healthcare system. Changes in law and regulatory interpretations could reduce our revenue and profitability.collective bargaining agreement.

Corporate Practice of Medicine and Other Laws

We are not licensed to practice medicine. Most states in which our business operates or in which we anticipate it will operate, limits the practice of medicine to licensed individuals or professional organizations comprised of licensed individuals. Business corporations generally may not exercise control over the medical decisions of physicians. Many states also limit the scope of business relationships between business entities and medical professionals, particularly with respect to fee splitting. Most state fee-splitting laws only prohibit a physician from sharing medical fees with a referral source, but some states have interpreted certain management agreements between business entities and physicians as unlawful fee-splitting. Statutes and regulations relating to the practice of medicine, fee-splitting, and similar issues vary widely from state to state. Because these laws are often vague, their application is frequently dependent on court rulings and attorney general opinions. There are many states that permit the corporate practice of medicine, and we are exploring opportunities in these states.

Under the affiliate doctor agreements, the doctors retain sole responsibility for all medical decisions, developing operating policies and procedures, implementing professional standards and controls, and maintaining malpractice insurance. We attempt to structure all our health services operations, including arrangements with our doctors, to comply with applicable state statutes regarding corporate practice of medicine, fee-splitting, and similar issues. However, there can be no assurance:

that private parties, courts or governmental officials with the power to interpret or enforce these laws and regulations, will not assert that we are in violation of such laws and regulations;

that future interpretations of such laws and regulations will not require us to modify the structure and organization of our business; or

that any such enforcement action, which could subject us and our affiliated professional groups to penalties or restructuring or reorganization of our business, will not adversely affect our business or results of operations.

HIPAA Administrative Simplification ProvisionsPatient Privacy and Security

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, commonly known as “HIPAA,” requires the adoption of standards for the exchange of health information in an effort to encourage overall administrative simplification and to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of the healthcare industry. Pursuant to HIPAA, the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services has issued final rules concerning the privacy and security of health information, the establishment of standard transactions and code sets, and the adoption of a unique employer identifier and a national provider identifier.  Noncompliance with the administrative simplification provisions can result in civil monetary penalties up to $100 per violation as well as criminal penalties that include fines and imprisonment. The Department of Health and Human Services Office of Civil Rights is charged with implementing and enforcing the privacy standards, while the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services are responsible for implementing and enforcing the security standards, the transactions and code sets standards, and the other HIPAA administrative simplification provisions.

The HIPAA requirements only apply to “covered entities,” such as health plans, healthcare clearinghouses, and healthcare providers, which transmit any health information in electronic form. Our business is likely considered a “covered entity” under HIPAA.

Of the HIPAA requirements, the privacy standards and the security standards have the most significant impact on our business operations. The privacy standards require covered entities to implement certain procedures to govern the use and disclosure of protected health information and to safeguard such information from inappropriate access, use, or disclosure. Protected health information includes individually identifiable health information, such as an individual’s medical records, transmitted or maintained in any format, including paper and electronic records. The privacy standards establish the different levels of individual permission that are required before a covered entity may use or disclose an individual’s protected health information and establish new rights for the individual with respect to his or her protected health information.

6

The final security rule establishes security standards that apply to covered entities. The security standards are designed to protect health information against reasonably anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of the information, and to protect the information against unauthorized use or disclosure. The security standards establish a national standard for protecting the security and integrity of medical records when they are kept in electronic form.

The administrative simplification provisions of HIPAA require the use of uniform electronic data transmission standards for healthcare claims and payment transactions submitted or received electronically. We believe that we are in substantial compliance with the transaction and code set standards. The transaction standards require us to use standard code sets when we transmit health information in connection with certain transactions, including health claims, health payments and remittance advices.

In addition, the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services issued a final rule that requires each healthcare provider to adopt a standard unique health identifier, the National Provider Identifier (“NPI”). The NPI will identify healthcare providers in the electronic transactions for which the Secretary has already adopted standards (the “standard transactions”). These transactions include claims, eligibility inquiries and responses, claim status inquiries and responses, referrals, and remittance advices. All health plans and all healthcare clearinghouses must accept and use NPIs in standard transactions.

Other Privacy and Confidentiality Laws

In addition to the HIPAA requirements described above, numerous other state and federal laws regulate the privacy of an individual’s health information. These laws specify how an individual’s health information may be used internally, the persons to whom health information may be disclosed, and the conditions under which such uses and disclosures may occur. Many states have requirements relating to an individual’s right to access his or her own medical records, as well as requirements relating to the use and content of consent or authorization forms. Also, because of employers’ economic interests in paying medical bills for injured employees and in the timing of the injured employees’ return to work, many states have enacted special confidentiality laws relating to disclosures of medical information in workers’ compensation claims. These laws limit employer access to such information. Many states have also passed laws that regulate the notification process to individuals when a security breach involving an individual’s personally identifiable information, such as social security number or date of birth, occurs. To the extent that state law affords greater protection of an individual’s health information than that provided under HIPAA, the state law will control.

We anticipate that there will be more regulation in the areas of privacy and confidentiality, particularly with respect to medical information. We regularly monitor the privacy and confidentiality requirements that relate to our business, and we anticipate that we may have to modify our operating practices and procedures in order to comply with these requirements.

Environmental

Although we currently contract with independent contractor medical providers, who are responsible for compliance with environmental laws, our operations may be subject to various federal, state, and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of human health and the environment, including those governing the management and disposal of infectious medical waste and other waste generated and the cleanup of contamination. If an environmental regulatory agency finds any of our facilities to be in violation of environmental laws, penalties and fines may be imposed for each day of violation and the affected facility could be forced to cease operations. The responsible party could also incur other significant costs, such as cleanup costs or claims by third parties, as a result of violations of, or liabilities under, environmental laws. Although we believe that our independent medical providers’ environmental practices, including waste handling and disposal practices, will be in material compliance with applicable laws, future claims or violations, or changes in environmental laws could have an adverse effect on our business.

Competition

The market to provide healthcare pain diagnostic services is highly competitive and fragmented.  Our primary competitors are typically independent physicians, chiropractors, hospital emergency departments, and hospital-owned or hospital-affiliated medical facilities.  As managed care techniques continue to gain acceptance in the automobile accident marketplace, we believe that our competitors will increasingly consist of nationally-focused care management service companies providing their service to insurance companies and litigation defense experts.

Because the barriers to entry in our geographic markets have a low threshold and our diagnostic centers’ patients have the flexibility to move easily to new healthcare service providers, the addition of new competitors may occur relatively quickly.  Some of our affiliated physicians and other healthcare providers may elect to compete with us by offering their own products and services to patients.  If competition within our industry intensifies, our ability to assist patients or associated physicians, or maintain or increase our revenue growth, price flexibility and control over medical costs, trends, and marketing expenses, may be compromised.

7

In order to mitigate the effects of intensifying competition, we will make careful study of population trends and demographic growth patterns in determining the best locations to compete.  Moreover, we will endeavor to have all of our physicians under strict contract to avoid unnecessary attrition and loss of skilled personnel.

Employees

We currently have one paid full time employee, plus one collection consultant and one QVH consultant at our corporate headquarters.  We expect to continue to use independent contractors, consultants, attorneys and accountants as necessary, to complement services rendered by our employee.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

Our future operating results are highly uncertain. Before deciding to invest in us or to maintain or increase your investment, you should carefully consider the risks described below, in addition to the other information contained in this annual report. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be seriously harmed. In that event, the market price for our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Company

We have discontinued funding future medical procedures due to our cash position

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the decision was made to discontinue funding future medical procedures due to our cash position, which also hampers our ability to pay back existing debt to Peter Dalrymple, a director and shareholder (see Note 6—Notes Payable in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). We have not funded any procedures in 2020 and will not do so in the future unless we can access additional capital. The service revenue we have funded has resulted in longer settlement times, which has created a slowdown in cash collections. Additionally, our efforts to establish a market for the Quad Video Halo has not met our expectations and we have cut back its development and operations. If we are unable to access additional capital in the near future, these recent developments will have a material negative impact on our financial performance and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Management has determined that certain factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, and our continued existence is dependent upon our ability to successfully execute our business plan.

The financial statements included with this report are presented under the assumption that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time. Management has determined that certain factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, including our net loss of $297,394 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and our accumulated deficit of $20,138,182 at December 31, 2020.  WeSmaller reporting companies are not generating sufficient operating cash flows to support continuing operations.  Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to successfully execute our business plan, obtain additional financing and achieve a level of cash flows from operations adequate to support our cost structure. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Our history in the healthcare services business makes an evaluation of us and our future extremely difficult, and profits are not assured.

We began development of our healthcare services business at the end of December 2008 and opened our first spine injury diagnostic center in August 2009. There can be no assurance that we will be profitable in the future or that investors’ investments in us will be returned to them in full, or at all, over time. In view of our history in the healthcare industry, an investor must consider our business and prospects in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by companies in our industry. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in undertaking any or all of the activities required for successful commercial operations. Our failure to successfully undertake such activities could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that our business operations will generate significant revenues, that we will generate additional positive cash flow from our operations or that we will be able to achieve or sustain profitability in any future period. Additionally, we have expended a great deal of resources developing, testing, and marketing the Quad Video Halo, but we have no assurances that the market will accept this product.

8

We are dependent on key personnel.

We depend to a large extent on the services of certain key management personnel, including our executive officers and other key consultants, the loss of any of which could have a material adverse effect on our operations. 

We may experience potential fluctuations in results of operations.

Our future revenues may be affected by a variety of factors, many of which are outside our control, including the success of implementing our business and trends and changes in the healthcare industry. We have no control on how long it takes cases to settle, making it difficult to forecast cash flow.  As a result of our operating history and the nature of our business plan, it is difficult to forecast revenues or earnings accurately, which may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter.

We have a history of significant operating losses and will need to increase operating expenses in the future if we decide to grow our business.

Since our inception in 1998, until commencement of our spine injury diagnostic operations in August 2009, our expenses substantially exceeded our revenue, resulting in continuing losses and an accumulated deficit from operations of $15,004,698 as of December 31, 2009.  Since that time, our accumulated deficit has increased to $20,138,182, as of December 31, 2020. During the fourth quarter of 2018, we chose to discontinue funding future medical procedures due to our cash position. Presently, we are trying to limit all operating expenses as much as possible. If in the future we decide to increase our service development, marketing efforts and/or brand building activities, we will need to increase our operating expenses and our general and administrative functions to support such growth in operations. No such growth in operations is presently planned. We will need to generate significant revenues to achieve our business plan. Our continued existence is dependent upon our ability to successfully execute our business plan, as well as our ability to increase revenue from services and obtain additional capital from borrowing and selling securities, as needed, to fund our operations. There is no assurance that additional capital can be obtained or that it can be obtained on terms that are favorable to us and our existing stockholders.  Any expectation of future profitability is dependent upon our ability to expand and develop our healthcare services business, of which there can be no assurances.

We may incur significant expenses as a result of being a publicly traded company, which may negatively impact our financial performance.

We may incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses as a result of being a publicly traded company. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as related rules implemented by the SEC, has required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. We expect that compliance with these laws, rules and regulations, including compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as discussed in the following risk factor, may substantially increase our expenses, including our legal and accounting costs, and make some activities more time-consuming and costly. As a result, there may be a substantial increase in legal, accounting and certain other expenses in the future, which would negatively impact our financial performance and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

9

Our internal control over financial reporting may not be considered effective, which could result in a loss of investor confidence in our financial reports and in turn could have an adverse effect on our stock price.

Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, with our annual reports, we are required to furnish a reportprovide the information required by our management on our internal control over financial reporting. Such report will contain, among other matters, an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the year, including a statement as to whether or not our internal control over financial reporting is effective. This assessment must include disclosure of any material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting identified by management.  If we are unable to assert that our internal control is effective, investors could be adversely affected.

Our healthcare business model is unproven.

Our healthcare business model depends upon our ability to implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, which includes our ability to find and form relationships with spine surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers, from whom they may obtain referrals for injured patients.  If we are unable to find and form relationships with such healthcare providers, our business will likely fail.

If competition increases, our growth and profits, if any, may decline.

The market to provide healthcare services and solutions is highly fragmented and competitive. Currently, we believe the business solutions that we can provide to spine surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers for necessary, reasonable and appropriate treatment for musculo-skeletal spine injuries resulting from automobile and work-related accidents, are somewhat unique in most geographic markets.  However, if we achieve our goal of becoming a leader in providing technology and monetizing services to spine surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers to facilitate proper treatment of their injured clients, we believe that competition for our business model will substantially increase.  Further, there are many alternatives to the services we can provide, that are currently available to surgeons and their injured patients. We can make no assurances that we will be able to effectively compete with the various services that are currently available or may become available in the future.

Because the barriers to entry in our geographic markets are not substantial and customers have the flexibility to move easily to new care management service providers, we believe that the addition of new competitors may occur relatively quickly. Some physicians and other healthcare providers may elect to compete with us by offering their own products and services to their clients and patients. In addition, significant merger and acquisition activity has occurred in our industry as well as in industries that will supply products to us, such as the hospital, physician, pharmaceutical, medical device, and health information systems industries. If competition within our industry intensifies, our ability to affiliate with new doctors and/or obtain physician referrals, or maintain or increase our revenue growth, pricing flexibility, control over medical cost trends, and marketing expenses may be compromised.

Future acquisitions and joint ventures may use significant resources or be unsuccessful.

As part of our business strategy, we may pursue acquisitions of companies providing services that are similar or complementary to those that we provide or plan to provide in our business, and we may enter into joint ventures to provide services at certain facilities. These acquisitions and joint venture activities may involve:

significant cash expenditures;

additional debt incurrence;

additional operating losses;

increases in intangible assets relating to goodwill of acquired companies; and

significant acquisition and joint venture related expenses,

any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Additionally, a strategy of growth by acquisitions and joint ventures involves numerous risks, including:

difficulties integrating acquired personnel and harmonizing distinct corporate cultures into our current businesses;

diversion of our management’s time from existing operations; and

potential losses of key employees or customers of acquired companies.

10

We cannot assure you that we will be able to identify suitable candidates or negotiate and consummate suitable acquisitions or joint ventures. Also, we cannot assure you that we will succeed in obtaining financing for any future acquisitions or joint ventures at a reasonable cost, or that such financing will not contain restrictive covenants that limit our operating flexibility or other unfavorable terms. Even if we are successful in consummating acquisitions or joint ventures, we may not succeed in developing and achieving satisfactory operating results for the acquired businesses or integrating them into our existing operations.

If lawsuits are brought against us and are successful, we may incur significant liabilities.

Although we are not a medical service provider, spine surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers with whom we form relationships are involved in the delivery of healthcare and related services to the public. In providing these services, the physicians and other licensed providers in our affiliated professional groups are exposed to the risk of professional liability claims. Further, plaintiffs have proposed expanded theories of liability against managed care companies as well as against employers who use managed care in many cases that, if established and successful, could expose us to liability from such claims, and could adversely affect our operations.

Regulatory authorities or other parties may assert that, in conducting our business, we may be engaged in unlawful fee splitting or the corporate practice of medicine.

The laws of many states prohibit physicians from splitting professional fees with non-physicians and prohibit non-physician entities, such as us, from practicing medicine, self-referral and from employing physicians to practice medicine. The laws in most states regarding the corporate practice of medicine have been subjected to limited judicial and regulatory interpretation. We believe our current and planned activities do not constitute fee-splitting or the unlawful corporate practice of medicine as contemplated by these laws. There can be no assurance, however, that future interpretations of such laws will not require structural and organizational modification of our existing relationships with the practices. In addition, statutes in some states in which we do not currently operate could require us to modify our affiliation structure. If a court, payer or regulatory body determines that we have violated these laws, we could be subject to civil or criminal penalties, our contracts could be found legally invalid and unenforceable (in whole or in part), or we could be required to restructure our arrangements with our contracted physicians and other licensed providers.

We operate in an industry that is subject to extensive federal, state, and local regulation, and changes in law and regulatory interpretations could reduce our revenue and profitability potential.

The healthcare industry is subject to extensive federal, state, and local laws, rules, and regulations relating to, among other things:

payment for services;

conduct of operations, including fraud and abuse, anti-kickback, physician self-referral, and false claims prohibitions;

operation of provider networks and provision of case management services;

protection of patient information;

business, facility, and professional licensure, including surveys, certification, and recertification requirements;

corporate practice of medicine and fee splitting prohibitions;

ERISA health benefit plans; and

medical waste disposal and environmental protection.

In recent years, both federal and state government agencies have increased civil and criminal enforcement efforts relating to the healthcare industry. This heightened enforcement activity increases our potential exposure to damaging lawsuits, investigations, and other enforcement actions. Any such action could distract our management and adversely affect our business reputation and profitability.

In the future, different interpretations or enforcement of laws, rules, and regulations governing the healthcare industry could subject our current business practices to allegations of impropriety, self-referral or illegality or could require us to make changes in our facilities, equipment, personnel, services, and capital expenditure programs, increase our operating expenses, and distract our management. If we fail to comply with these extensive laws and government regulations, we could suffer civil and criminal penalties, or be required to make significant changes to our operations. In addition, we could be forced to expend considerable resources to respond to an investigation or other enforcement action under these laws or regulations.

11

Changes in laws, rules, and regulations, including those governing the corporate practice of medicine, fee splitting, workers compensation, and insurance, may affect our ability to expand our operations into other states and, therefore, may reduce our profitability.

State laws, rules, and regulations relating to our business vary widely from state to state, and courts and regulatory agencies have seldom interpreted them in a way that provides guidance with respect to our business operations. Changes in these laws, rules, and regulations may adversely affect our profitability. In addition, the application of these laws, rules, and regulations may affect our ability to expand our operations into new markets.

Most states limit the practice of medicine to licensed individuals or professional organizations comprised of licensed individuals. Many states also limit the scope of business relationships between business entities like ours and licensed professionals and professional organizations, particularly with respect to fee splitting between a licensed professional or professional organization and an unlicensed person or entity. We operate our business by maintaining long-term administrative and management agreements with affiliated professional doctors. Through these agreements, we perform only non-medical administrative services. All control over medical matters is retained by the affiliated physicians or professional groups. Although we believe that our arrangements with physicians and the other affiliated licensed providers comply with applicable laws, regulatory authorities or other third parties may assert that we are engaged in the corporate practice of medicine or that our arrangements with the physicians or affiliated professional groups constitute fee-splitting or self-referral, or new laws may be introduced that would render our arrangements illegal. If this were to occur, we and/or the affiliated professional groups could be subject to civil or criminal penalties and/or we could be required to restructure these arrangements, all of which may result in significant cost to us and affect our profitability.item.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

We may issue a large number of shares of common stock in the future, including without limitation in a strategic business transaction, which could cause substantial dilution to all stockholders.

We may seek to raise equity or equity-related capital in the future.  Additionally, we are presently seeking to enter into a strategic business transaction with another company. Either event could result in us issuing a large number of shares of common stock. Any issuance of shares of our common stock will dilute the percentage ownership interest of all stockholders and may further dilute the book value per share of our common stock. This dilution could be substantial, depending on the size of such issuance transaction.

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends.

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate doing so for the foreseeable future.  The payment of dividends, if any, is within the discretion of our board of directors and is dependent on our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements, general financial condition, and other relevant factors.  We presently intend to retain all earnings, if any, to implement our business strategy.

The market for our stock is limited and our stock price may be volatile.

There is a limited market for our common stock and a stockholder may not be able to liquidate his or her shares regardless of the necessity of doing so.  The prices of our shares are highly volatile. This could have an adverse effect on developing and sustaining the market for our securities.  We cannot assure you that the market price of our common stock will not fluctuate or decline significantly.  In addition, the stock markets in general can experience considerable price and volume fluctuations.

The trading price of our common stock entails additional regulatory requirements, which may negatively affect such trading price.

Generally, the Securities and Exchange Commission generally defines a “penny stock” as any equity security that is quoted over-the-counter, such as on the OTC Bulletin Board (which is a facility of FINRA) or OTC Link LLC (which is owned by OTC Markets Group, Inc., formerly known as Pink OTC Markets Inc.) that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share.  The trading price of our common stock is below $5.00 per share.  As a result of this price level, our common stock is considered a penny stock and trading in our common stock is subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  These rules require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades generally involving penny stocks subject to certain exceptions.  Such rules require the delivery, before any penny stock transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith and impose various sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stocks to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions).  For these types of transactions, the broker-dealer must determine the suitability of the penny stock for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction before sale.  The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our common stock.  As a consequence, the market liquidity of our common stock could be severely affected or limited by these regulatory requirements.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

As of the date of this Annual Report, to our knowledge, there are no legal proceedings or regulatory actions material to us to which we are a party, or have been a party to, or of which any of our property is or was the subject matter of, and no such proceedings or actions are known by us to be contemplated except as provided below:

Due to the misrepresentations and omissions of SuperGreen, Calvin C. Cao and Michael H. Cao, among other reasons, the Company filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court, Central District of California on February 2, 2023 against SuperGreen, Michael H. Cao, Linh T. Dao, Calvin C. Cao and entities affiliated with them alleging fraud-concealment, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty-duty of good faith, breach of fiduciary duty-undivided loyalty, conversion and violation of California Penal Code Sec. 496 (the “Cao Lawsuit”). This lawsuit seeks compensatory damages of at least $33.6 million, treble and punitive damages, imposition of a constructive trust over the defendants assets, pre-judgment and post-judgment interest, attorney’s fees and such other relief as determined by the court.

Effective February 20, 2023, the Company, together with its wholly owned subsidiary Bitech Mining Corporation entered into a Confidential Settlement, Mutual Release, and Share Transfer Agreement (the “C. Cao Settlement Agreement”) with Calvin Cao (“C. Cao”) and SuperGreen Energy Corporation (“SuperGreen,” together with C. Cao, the “C. Cao Parties”). The C. Cao Settlement Agreement settles as to the C. Cao Parties, the Cao Lawsuit. Pursuant to the C. Cao Settlement Agreement, the C. Cao Parties terminated the Patent & Technology Exclusive and Non-Exclusive License Agreement between Bitech Mining Corporation and SuperGreen dated January 15, 2021 as amended on January 15, 2021 and on March 26, 2022 (the “License Agreement”) and SuperGreen canceled 51,507,749 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share issued by the Company to SuperGreen pursuant to the License Agreement. In addition, the parties to the Settlement Agreement agreed to a mutual general release of liabilities against each other, refrain from making any disparaging remarks about each other and the Company’s filing a dismissal with prejudice of the Cao Lawsuit as to the C. Cao Parties. The Settlement Agreement also contains additional covenants, representations and warranties that are customary of litigation settlement agreements. The Company intends to continue to pursue the Cao Lawsuit as to the remaining defendants in that case, namely Michael Cao, B&B Investment Holding, LLC (“B&B Investment”) and Linh Dao.

On March 6, 2023, Michael Cao and Linh Dao filed, without an attorney, a pro se Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Jurisdiction. No hearing has been set for this motion. On March 23, 2023, the Court entered a default against B&B Investment for failing to appear or otherwise defend itself in the case. B&B Investment is an affiliate of Michael Cao.

The Company intends to vigorously prosecute this case and believes the basis for the motion to dismiss the case lack merit. We cannot predict the outcome of this lawsuit, however.

 

ITEM 3.LEGAL PROCEEDINGSLitigation Assessment

None.We have evaluated the foregoing Cao Lawsuit to assess the likelihood of any unfavorable outcome and to estimate, if possible, the amount of potential loss as it relates to the litigation. Based on this assessment and estimate, which includes an understanding of our intention to vigorously prosecute the Cao Lawsuit, we believe that the potential defenses of any of the remaining defendants lack merit, however, and we cannot predict the likelihood of any recoveries by any of our claims against the remaining defendants. This assessment and estimate is based on the information available to management as of the date of this Annual Report and involves a significant amount of management judgment, including the inherent difficulty associated with assessing litigation matters in their early stages. As a result, the actual outcome or loss may differ materially from those envisioned by the current assessment and estimate. Our failure to successfully prosecute, defend or settle the Cao Litigation with the remaining defendants could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, revenue and profitability and could cause the market value of our common stock to decline.

ITEM 7.MANAGEMENTS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The followingThis management discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the financial condition and results of operations of Bitech Technologies Corporation (the “Company,” “Bitech Technologies,” “our” or “we”) is for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021. It is supplemental to, and should be read in conjunction with, the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-K.

Management Overview

At the end of 2008, we launched our new business concept of medical services and technology that delivers turnkey solutions to spine surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers for necessary, reasonable and appropriate treatment for musculo-skeletal spine injuries.

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the decision was made to discontinue funding future medical procedures due to our cash position, which also hampers our ability to pay back existing debt to a current director and shareholder. We did not fund any procedures in 2020 and will not do so in the future unless we can access additional capital. The service revenue we have funded has resulted in longer settlement times, which has created a slowdown in cash collections. Additionally, our efforts to establish a market for the Quad Video Halo has not met our expectations and we have cut back its development and operations. In late 2018, however, we were able to sell certain contracts to customers for the use of our QVH units along with image processing services.

There can be no guarantee of us continuing as a going concern if we cannot find additional capital. We continue to explore opportunities to raise additional capital to fund our operations. We are also actively seeking a private company with which to enter into a strategic business transaction, including without limitation a merger.

Results of Operations

For the years ended December 31, 2020 versus 2019:

We recorded $95,941 in QVH lease revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020 coupled with $76,078 relating to excess collections for previously funded procedures, resulting in revenue of $172,019. For the same period in 2019, we recorded $73,046 in QVH lease revenue coupled with $136,327 relating to excess collections for previously funded procedures bringing total revenue to $209,373. For the year ended December 31, 2020, our collections of previously funded procedures decreased as we are no longer funding new procedures and previously funded procedures are in run-off.

There were no service costs in 2020. For the year ended December 31, 2019 service cost was $115,235 which consisted of inventory obsolescence write downs for the period.

Expenses

For the years ended December 31, 2020 versus 2019:

Operating, general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $507,397 as compared to $1,643,803 for the year ended December 31, 2019. Operating expenses decreased due to decreases in bad debt expenses, investor relations expenses, payroll, consulting, insurance, computer expenses, factoring expense, goodwill impairment, depreciation and amortization, and rent expense.

Bad debt expense, net of recoveries, included in operating, general and administrative expenses, totaled $0 and $538,577, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. The decrease in bad debt expense is primarily attributable to our assessment of active cases that have aged greater than historic norms.  While we continue to pursue all amounts owed, we increased the allowance for bad debt minimally to encompass those receivables in which collection is doubtful.

Other income (expense) for the year ended December 31, 2020 was other income, net of $37,984 as compared to other expense, net of $62,904 for the year ended December 31, 2019. For the year ended December 31, 2020,  other income, net consisted primarily of the forgiveness of our Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan as further described below, partially offset by $26,646 of interest expense.. For the year ended December 31, 2019 the other expense, net consisted of $2,399 of income coupled with $65,303 of interest expense.

On April 22, 2020 we received an SBA loan in the amount of $64,097 under the federal PPP which helps businesses keep their workforce employed during the Coronavirus crisis. The PPP is part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act signed into law in March of 2020. The PPP is a loan designed to provide direct incentive for small businesses to keep their workers on the payroll, which will be forgiven if all employees are kept on the payroll for eight weeks and the money is used for the sole purpose of payroll, rent, mortgage interest, or utilities, subject to the provisions in the program. The loan carries an interest rate of 1% and is due in two years, April 22, 2022. There is no collateral and no personal guarantees. In December 2020, we applied for forgiveness of our PPP loan and subsequently received a notice of approval. Accordingly, we removed the PPP loan amount from our consolidated balance sheet and recognized a gain on forgiveness of debt.

Net Loss

For the years ended December 31, 2020 versus 2019:

Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $297,394 compared to net loss of $1,612,569 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The main reason for the decrease is that we did not take as large bad debt expense, as well as no expense related to writing off obsolete inventory, factoring expense, nor impairment of goodwill, coupled with other operating expenses being lower.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the year ended December 31, 2020 versus 2019:

During 2020, cash provided by operating activities was $446,971 as compared to $635,908 in 2019.  The decrease in cash provided by operations was mainly due to a decrease in collections of outstanding receivables.

Cash used in financing activities totaled $515,903 for the year ended December 31, 2020, consisting of payments on our note payable totaling $110,000 and $470,000 in payments on our line of credit, partially offset by proceeds received from a PPP loan of $64,097. Cash used in financing activities totaled $585,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019, consisting of $90,000 in payments on our note and $495,000 in payments on our line of credit.  

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

We have experienced losses and as a result have net operating loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income.

Critical Accounting Policies

In Note 3 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the years endedperiod January 8, 2021 (inception) through December 31, 20202022 and 2019the accompanying notes for such period included in thisour Current Report on Form 10-K, we discuss those accounting policies that8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, on April 4, 2022. Our financial statements are considered to be significant in determining the results of operations and our financial position. The following critical accounting policies and estimates are important in the preparation of our financial statements:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statementsprepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires(“GAAP”). Financial information presented in this MD&A is presented in United States dollars (“$” or “US$”), unless otherwise indicated.

The information about us provided in this MD&A, including information incorporated by reference, may contain “forward-looking statements” and certain “forward-looking information” as defined under applicable United States securities laws. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, made by us that address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, statements preceded by, followed by or that include words such as “may”, “will”, “would”, “could”, “should”, “believes”, “estimates”, “projects”, “potential”, “expects”, “plans”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “targeted”, “continues”, “forecasts”, “designed”, “goal”, or the negative of those words or other similar or comparable words and includes, among others, information regarding: our managementfuture business activities; our ability to make significant estimatesgenerate revenues; our need for substantial additional financing to operate our current and judgments that affect the reported amountsfuture business and difficulties we may face acquiring additional financing on terms acceptable to us or at all; risks related to competition; risks related to our lack of assets, liabilities, revenuesinternal controls over financial reporting and expenses. By their nature, these judgmentseffectiveness; increased costs we are subject to an inherent degreeas a result of uncertainty. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates. We base our estimates on historical experiencebeing a public company in the United States; and other factsevents or conditions that may occur in the future.

Forward-looking statements may relate to future financial conditions, results of operations, plans, objectives, performance or business developments. These statements speak only as at the date they are made and circumstancesare based on information currently available and on the then current expectations of the party making the statement and assumptions concerning future events, which are subject to a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from that which was expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

Although we believe that the expectations and assumptions on which such forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on the forward-looking statements, because no assurance can be given that they will prove to be correct. Since forward-looking statements address future events and conditions, by their very nature, they involve inherent risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated due to a number of factors and risks discussed above.

Consequently, all forward-looking statements made in this MD&A and other documents, as applicable, are qualified by such cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the anticipated results or developments will actually be realized or, even if realized, that they will have the expected consequences to or effects on us. The cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section should be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we believeand/or persons acting on its behalf may issue. We do not undertake any obligation to be reasonable,update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, other than as required under securities legislation.

Overview of the Business

Currently, we have refocused our business development plans as we seek to position ourselves as a global technology solution enabler dedicated to providing a suite of green energy solutions with industry focus on green data centers, commercial and residential utility, EV infrastructure, and other renewable energy initiatives. We have been developing and evaluating the commercial viability of our Evirontek™ Integrated Platform to resolve the exorbitantly high cost of electricity in several industries. We plan to pursue these innovative energy technologies through research and development, planned acquisitions of other green energy technologies and plans to become a grid-balancing operator using Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) solutions and applying new green technologies in power plants as a technology enabler in the green energy sector. While participating in the clean energy economy, we are seeking business partnerships with defensible technology innovators and renewable energy providers to facilitate investments, provide new market entries toward emerging-growth regions and implement or manufacture these innovative, scalable energy system solutions with technological focuses on smart grids, Building Energy Management System (BEMS), energy storage, and EV infrastructure.

To accelerate growth of a planned intellectual property (IP) portfolio through acquisition strategies, we plan to execute our Smart Acquisition Model with selected acquisitions of defensible technologies accompanied with visionary management teams who can demonstrate a common goal with us in order to unlock the full potential with capital infusion, accelerate growth. To achieve our development plans, we plan to incubate those acquired companies toward foreseeable plans for mergers and acquisitions, formation of global joint ventures, while facilitating new market entry to today’s fastest growing Southeast Asia region. With this acquisition model, we expect to build a valuable technology portfolio of IP assets in various innovative green energy technologies, leveraging our network of global capital partners with low-cost manufacturing capacity and oversea outsourcing technical talents from our niche sources in Vietnam.

Further, we plan to execute a Dual Growth Business Model as depicted in the diagram below encompassing (1) IP portfolio growth which includes technology licensing or technology acquisitions, enhanced with our plans to carry out research and development for specific applications, and (2) sustainable revenue growth by executing planned BESS acquisitions via joint ventures with capital partners to collect joint venture income from BESS operations or Vietnam-based manufacturing partners which can manufacture products derived from our technology solutions.

In light of these initiatives and other reasons noted below, the Company has, however, elected to discontinue its efforts to commercialize the electric power generation and charging system (the “Tesdison Technology”) it licensed from SuperGreen pursuant to the SuperGreen License. The Company has determined that the Tesdison Technology was not functional nor was it capable of being developed into a commercially viable product as had been represented to the Company by SuperGreen, its founder Calvin Cao, and his brother Michael Cao, leading up to Bitech Mining entering into the SuperGreen License. In addition, the Company will temporarily pause the further development of Intellisys-8, the Company’s planned chipset and related software that had been designed to reduce power consumption and heat in computer systems and accelerate their computational speed due to the currently unfavorable market conditions within the cryptocurrency market.

The Company acquired Bitech Mining on March 31, 2022 pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement we acquired an aggregate of 94,312,250 shares of Bitech Mining’s Common Stock representing 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Bitech Mining in exchange for an aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s newly authorized Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted into 53.975685 shares (an aggregate of approximately 485,781,300) of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Company Common Stock”) upon filing of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation increasing the number of the Company’s authorized common stock so that there were a sufficient number of shares of Company Common Stock authorized but unissued to permit a full conversion of all the Series A Preferred Stock. Effective as of June 27, 2022, the Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted into 485,781,168 shares of Company Common Stock following the June 27, 2022 filing of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation increasing the number of the Company’s authorized common stock to 1,000,000,000 shares. Upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Sellers held, in the aggregate, approximately 96% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company capital stock on a fully diluted basis.

The Share Exchange was treated as a recapitalization and reverse acquisition for financial reporting purposes, and Bitech Mining is considered the acquirer for accounting purposes. As a result of the Share Exchange and the change in our business and operations, a discussion of the past financial results formof our predecessor, Spine Injury Solutions Inc., is not pertinent, and under applicable accounting principles, the basis for making judgments abouthistorical financial results of Bitech Mining, the carrying value of assets and liabilities. The actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivableaccounting acquirer, prior to the Share Exchange are considered our historical financial results.

The Company’s service and product sale revenue are accounted for under ASC 606, Revenue from Contractsfollowing agreements were entered into in connection with Customers.

Comparison of the years ended December 31, 2022 and signed required medical2021.

The Company has not generated any revenues from its primary business for the year ended December 31, 2022. We invoiced and collected $26,197 from QVH legacy business and recorded other income of $50,275 generated from accounts receivable previously written-off as uncollectible for the year ended December 31, 2022. There was no revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we incurred $888,106 of general and administrative expenses compared to $284,959 for the same period in 2021. General and administrative expenses have increased during 2022 compared to 2021 as the Company moves from development stage to revenue generation.

As a result of the foregoing, we had net loss of ($811,635) for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to a net loss of ($284,959) for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Working Capital

The calculation of Working Capital provides additional information and is not defined under GAAP. We define Working Capital as current assets less current liabilities. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any standardized measure under GAAP. This information is intended to provide investors with information about our liquidity.

Other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had total current liabilities of $11,397 and $11,106, respectively, and current assets of $210,723 and $976,947, respectively, to meet our current obligations. As of December 31, 2022, we had working capital of $199,326, a decrease of working capital of $766,515 as compared to December 31, 2021, driven primarily by cash used in operations.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, cash used in operations was ($789,344) which primarily included the net loss of ($811,635) partially offset by a $35,000 full amortization of exclusive license agreement.

We have a history of operating losses. We have not yet achieved profitable operations and expect to incur further losses. We have funded our operations primarily from equity financing. As of December 31, 2022, cash generated from financing activities was not sufficient to fund our growth strategy in the short-term or long-term. The primary need for liquidity is to fund working capital requirements of the business, including operational expenses in connection with our efforts to become a provider of a suite of green energy solutions. The primary source of liquidity has primarily been private financing transactions. The ability to fund operations and pursue opportunities within the green energy industry depends on our ability to raise funds from debt and/or equity financing which is subject to prevailing economic conditions and financial, paperwork. Service revenues were recorded as net patient service revenues basedbusiness and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on variable consideration elements further described below. While we did collect 100%commercially reasonable terms.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of the accountsdate of this Annual Report on certain patients,Form 10-K, we do not have any off-balance-sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our historical collection rate was used to estimate the variable consideration expectedresults of operations or financial condition, including, and is reflectedwithout limitation, such considerations as liquidity and capital resources.

Changes in the carrying balanceor Adoption of accounts receivable and service revenue recorded. A discount rateAccounting Practices

There were no material changes in or adoption of 48%, based on payment history, was used to reduce revenue to 52% of Current Procedural Terminology code rates (“CPT” codes are numbers assigned to every task and service a medical practitioner may provide to a patient including medical, surgical and diagnostic services. CPT codes are developed, maintained and copyrighted by the American Medical Association). Patients were billed at the normal billing amount, based on national averages, for a particular CPT code procedurenew accounting practices during the year ended December 31, 2018 and prior years. We recorded no revenue related to medical diagnostic services provided during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and revenue presented represents adjustments of variable consideration received for procedures performed in years prior to 2019.2022.

Service revenue and corresponding accounts receivable are recognized by reference to “net revenue” and “accounts receivable, net” which is defined as gross amounts billed using CPT codes (“gross revenue”) less account discounts that are expected to result when individual cases are ultimately settled, which is the variable consideration associated with this revenue stream.Critical Accounting Policies

Our credit policy has been established based upon extensive experience by management in the industry and has been determined to ensure that collectability is reasonably assured.  Payment for services are primarily made to us by a third party and the credit policy includes terms of net 240 days for collections; however, collections occur upon settlement or judgment of cases. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no material contract assets, contract liabilities, or deferred contract costs recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

Revenue expected to be recognized in any future year related to remaining performance obligations, excluding revenue pertaining to contracts that have an original expected duration of one year or less, contracts where revenue is recognized as invoiced and contracts with variable consideration related to undelivered performance obligations, is not material.

Lease Revenues

Rental revenues from operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the termSee Note 2 of the lease. Rental billings for periods extending beyond period end are recorded as deferred income and are recognized in the period earned. For the QVH Leases, rental related services revenues for support, maintenance and video processing, delivery, and installation are lease related because the payments are considered minimum lease payments that are an integral part of the negotiated lease agreement with the customer. These revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. As of the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company’s leases consisted solely of operating leases.

Accounting Standards Updates

In Note 3accompanying notes to the auditedunaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which note is incorporated herein by reference.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit)

We have not made a provision for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 includedincome taxes in this Form 10-K, we discuss those recent accounting pronouncements that may be considered to be significant in determining current and/2022 or future results of operations and2021, which reflects our financial position.

Going Concern

Sincevaluation allowance established against our inception in 1998, until commencement of our spine injury diagnostic operations in August, 2009, our expenses substantially exceeded our revenue, resulting in continuing losses and an accumulated deficitbenefits from operations of $15,004,698 as of December 31, 2009.  Since that time, our accumulated deficit has increased $5,134,184 to $20,138,182 as of December 31, 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2020, we recorded net revenue of $183,342 and a netoperating loss of $297,394. Successful business operations and our transition to attaining profitability are dependent upon obtaining additional financing and achieving a level of revenue adequate to support our cost structure. Considering the nature of the business, we are not generating immediate liquidity and sufficient working capital within a reasonable period of time to fund our planned operations and strategic business plan through the period of one year from the issuance of this report. There can be no assurances that there will be adequate financing available to us.carryforwards.

Additionally, during the fourth quarter of 2018, the decision was made to discontinue funding future medical procedures due to our cash position, which also hampered our ability to pay back existing debt to a current director and shareholder (see Note 6—Notes Payable in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements). We did not fund any procedures in 2020 and will not do so unless we can access additional capital. The service revenue we have funded has resulted in longer settlement times, which has created a slowdown in cash collections. Additionally, our efforts to establish a market for the Quad Video Halo has not met our expectations and we have cut back its development and operations. If we are unable to access additional capital in the near future, these recent developments could have a material negative impact on our financial performance and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. We are also actively seeking a private company with which to enter into a strategic business transaction, including without limitation a merger. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of our assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheetssheet of Spine Injury Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”Bitech Technologies Corporation (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019,2022, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit)shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the yearsyear then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”)financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019,2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years thenyear ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities, therefore, the Company has stated that substantial doubt exists about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our auditsaudit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal controlscontrol over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’sentity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our auditsaudit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our auditsaudit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our auditsaudit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Other MatterCritical Audit Matters

The accompanying consolidated financial statements referred to above have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As more fully described in Note 2, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $20,138,182 and a net loss of $297,394 as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020.  Additionally, the Company is not generating sufficient cash flows to meet its regular working capital requirements. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans as to thesecritical audit matters communicated below are also described in Note 2.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might resultmatters arising from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Critical Audit Matters

Critical audit matters are matter arisings from the current-periodcurrent period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and thatthat: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) representedinvolved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Going Concern

As described further in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred losses each year from inception through December 31, 2022 and expects to incur additional losses in the future.

We determined that there are nothe Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is a critical audit matters.matter due to the estimation and uncertainty regarding the Company’s future cash flows and the risk of bias in management’s judgments and assumptions in estimating these cash flows.

Our audit procedures related to the Company’s assertion on its ability to continue as a going concern included the following, among others:

We reviewed the Company’s working capital and liquidity ratios and forecasted revenue, operating expenses, and uses and sources of cash used in management’s assessment of whether the Company has sufficient liquidity to fund operations for at least one year from the financial statement issuance date. This testing included inquiries with management, comparison of prior period forecasts to actual results, consideration of positive and negative evidence impacting management’s forecasts, the Company’s financing arrangements in place as of the report date, market and industry factors and consideration of the Company’s relationships with its financing partners.

BITECH TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1.DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Bitech Technologies Corporation (formerly, Spine Injury Solutions Inc.) (the “Company”, “we” or “us”) was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on March 4, 1998. We changedIn connection with the Company’s planned expansion of its business following the completion of the acquisition of Bitech Mining Corporation, a Wyoming corporation (“Bitech Mining”), it filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 29, 2022 to change its corporate name to Bitech Technologies Corporation.

As a development-stage company, we are a global technology solution enabler dedicated to providing a suite of green energy solutions with industry focus on green data centers, commercial and residential utility, EV infrastructure, and other renewable energy initiatives. Bitech has been developing and evaluating the commercial viability of its Evirontek™ Integrated Platform to resolve the exorbitantly high cost of electricity in several industries. Bitech innovates energy technologies through research and development, planned acquisitions of other green energy technologies and plans to become a grid-balancing operator using Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) solutions and applying new green technologies in power plants to save electricity. While participating in the Clean Energy Economy, we seek business partnerships with defensible technology innovators and renewable energy providers to facilitate investments, provide new market entries toward emerging-growth regions and implement or manufacture these innovative, scalable energy system solutions with technological focuses on smart grid, Building Energy Management System (BEMS), energy storage, and EV infrastructure.

The Company acquired Bitech Mining on March 31, 2022 (the “Closing Date”) through a share exchange pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) by and among the Company, Bitech Mining, each of Bitech Mining’s shareholders (each, a “Seller” and collectively, the “Sellers”), and Benjamin Tran, solely in his capacity as Sellers’ Representative (“Sellers’ Representative”). The transaction contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement is hereinafter referred to as the “Share Exchange”). The Share Exchange Agreement provides that the Company will acquire from the Sellers, an aggregate of 94,312,250 shares of Bitech Mining’s Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, representing 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Bitech Mining (collectively, the “Bitech Mining Shares”). In consideration of the Bitech Mining Shares, the Company issued to the Sellers an aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s newly authorized Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). Each Bitech Mining Share shall be entitled to receive 0.09543 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock shall automatically convert into 53.975685 shares (an aggregate of approximately 485,781,300) of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Company Common Stock”) upon filing of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation increasing the number of the Company’s authorized common stock so that there are a sufficient number of shares of Company Common Stock authorized but unissued to permit a full conversion of all the Series A Preferred Stock. Effective as of June 27, 2022, the Series A Preferred Stock automatically converted into 485,781,168 shares of Company Common Stock following the June 27, 2022 filing of an amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation increasing the number of the Company’s authorized common stock to 1,000,000,000 shares. Upon conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Sellers held, in the aggregate, approximately 96% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company capital stock on a fully diluted basis.

The Share Exchange was treated as a recapitalization and reverse acquisition for financial reporting purposes, and Bitech Mining is considered the acquirer for accounting purposes. As a result of the Share Exchange and the change in our name tobusiness and operations, a discussion of the past financial results of our predecessor, Spine Injury Solutions Inc. on October 1, 2015., is not pertinent, and under applicable accounting principles, the historical financial results of Bitech Mining, the accounting acquirer, prior to the Share Exchange are considered our historical financial results.

We are a technology, marketing, billing,Prior to March 31, 2022, we were engaged in the business of owning, developing and collection company facilitating diagnostic services for patients who have sustained spine injuries resulting from traumatic accidents. We deliver turnkey solutionsleasing the Quad Video Halo video recording system (“QVH”) used to spine surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers for necessary and appropriate treatment of musculo-skeletal spine injuries resulting from automobile and work-related accidents. Our goal is to become a leader in providing technology and monetizing services to spine and orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers to facilitate proper treatment of their injured clients. By monetizing the providers accounts receivable, which includes diagnostic testing and non-invasive surgical care, patients are not unnecessarily delayed or prevented from obtaining needed treatment. By facilitating early treatment through affiliated doctors, we believe that health conditions can be prevented from escalating and injured victims can be quickly placed on the road to recovery. Through our affiliate system, we facilitate spine surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and other healthcare providers to provide reasonable, necessary, and appropriate treatments to patients with musculo-skeletal spine injuries. We assist the centers that provide the spine diagnostic injections and treatment and pay the doctors a fee for therecord medical procedures they performed. After a patient is billed for the procedures performed by the affiliated doctor, we take control of the patients’ unpaid bill and oversee collection. In most instances, the patient is a plaintiff in an accident case, where the patient is represented by an attorney. Typically, the defendant (and/or the insurance company of the defendant) in the accident case pays the patient’s bill upon settlement or final judgment of the accident case. The payment to us is made through the attorney of the patient. In most cases, we must agree to the settlement price and the patient must sign off on the settlement. Once we are paid, the patient’s attorney can receive payment for his or her legal fee. During the fourth quarter of 2018, the decision was made to discontinue funding future medical procedures due to our cash position, and we have not funded any procedures in 2020 and will not do so unless we can access additional capital (see Note 2 below). However, we continue to actively pursueincluding the collection of accounts receivables related to previously funded procedures.

We own a patented device and process by which a video recording system is attached to a fluoroscopic x-ray machine, the “four camera technology,” which we believe can attract additional physicians and patients and provide us with additional revenue streams with our new programs designed to assist in treatment documentation. We have refined the technology, through research and development, resulting in a fully commercialized Quad Video Halo (“QVH”) System 3.0. Using this technology, diagnostic and treatment procedures are recorded from four separate video feeds that capture views from both inside and outside the body, and a video is made which is given to the patient’s representative to verify the treatment received. 

In September 2014, we created a wholly-owned subsidiary, Quad Video Halo, Inc. The purpose of this entity is to hold certain company assets in connection with the QVH units.

NOTE 2.GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS

Since our inception in 1998, until commencement of ourprovided spine injury diagnostic operations in August, 2009,services (collectively, the “QVH Business”). On June 30, 2022, we sold the assets related to the QVH Business.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following are summarized accounting policies considered to be critical by our management:

Going Concern

Since our inception, our expenses substantially exceeded our revenue, resulting in continuing losses and an accumulated deficit from operations of $15,004,698$1,096,594 as of December 31, 2009.  Since that time, our accumulated deficit has increased $5,133,484 to $20,138,182 as of December 31, 2020.2022. Presently, we are trying to limit all operating expenses as much as possible. If in the future we decide to increase our service development, marketing efforts and/or brand building activities, we will need to increase our operating expenses and our general and administrative functions to support such growth in operations. No such growth in operations is presently planned. We are also actively seeking a private company with which to enter into a strategic business transaction, including without limitation a merger; however, we cannot predict the ultimate outcome of our efforts. Our continued existence is dependent upon our ability to successfully merge with a financially viable company, or our ability to increase revenue from services and obtain additional capital from borrowing andand/or selling securities, as needed, to fund our operations. There is no assurance that additional capital can be obtained or that it can be obtained on terms that are favorable to us and our existing stockholders. Any expectation of future profitability is likely dependent upon our ability to expand and develop our business,successfully merge with another company, of which there can be no assurances.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2018, the decision was made to discontinue funding future medical procedures due to our cash position, which also hampered our ability to pay back existing debt to Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and a current director and shareholder (see Note 6—Notes Payable). We didwere not fundinvolved in any procedures in 20202022 and will nothave no plans to do so unless we can access additional capital.in the future. The previous service revenue we have fundedrevenues earned has resulted in longer settlement times, which has created a slowdown in cash collections. Additionally, our efforts to establish a market for the Quad Video Halo has not met our expectations and we have cut back its development and operations. If we are unable to access additional capital in the near future, these recent developments could have a material negative impact on our financial performance and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

24

We are also actively seeking a private company with which to enter into a strategic business transaction, including without limitation a merger. Presently, we believe this to be the best course of actions for our shareholders.

 

NOTE 3.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Spine Injury Solutions, Inc.Bitech Technologies Corporation. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Quad Video Halo, Inc. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

 

Revenue recognition

The Company adopted Accounting Method

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of AmericaStandards Codification (“U.S. GAAP”ASC”).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions and could have a material effect on the reported amounts of our financial position and results of operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s accounting for revenues is governed by two accounting standards. The Company’s service and product sale revenue are accounted for under 606. ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Additionally,Customers, establishes principles for reporting information about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the entity’s contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The core principle requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that it expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services recognized as performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company has assessed the impact of the guidance by performing the following five steps analysis:

Step 1: Identify the contract

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price

Step 5: Recognize revenue

Substantially all of the Company’s QVH rental revenuesrevenue is derived from leasing equipment. The Company considers a signed lease agreement to be a contract with a customer. Contracts with customers are accountedconsidered to be short-term when the time between signed agreements and satisfaction of the performance obligations is equal to or less than one year, and virtually all of the Company’s contracts are short-term. The Company recognizes revenue when services are provided to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for under ASC 842, Leases.

Service Revenue Recognition

Historically, our net revenues included service revenues that arose from thethose services. The Company typically satisfies its performance obligations in contracts with customers upon delivery of medical diagnostic services providedthe services. The Company does not have any contract assets since the Company has an unconditional right to patients by medical professionalsconsideration when the Company has satisfied its performance obligation and payment from customers is not contingent on a future event. Generally, payment is due from customers immediately at spine injury diagnostic centers, only after the patients completedinvoice date, and signed required medicalthe contracts do not have significant financing components nor variable consideration. There are no returns and financial paperwork. Service revenues were recordedthere is no allowances. All of the Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation satisfied at a point in time and the transaction price is stated in the contract, usually as net patient service revenuesa price per unit. All estimates are based on variable consideration elements further described below and in Note 4. While we did collect 100%the Company’s historical experience, complete satisfaction of the accounts on certain patients, our historical collection rate was used to estimateperformance obligation, and the variable consideration expected and is reflected in the carrying balance of accounts receivable and service revenue recorded. A discount rate of 48%, based on payment history, was used to reduce revenue to 52% of Current Procedural Terminology code rates (“CPT” codes are numbers assigned to every task and service a medical practitioner may provide to a patient including medical, surgical and diagnostic services. CPT codes are developed, maintained and copyrighted by the American Medical Association). Patients were billedCompany’s best judgment at the normal billing amount, based on national averages, for a particular CPT code procedure duringtime the year ended December 31, 2018 and prior years. We recorded no revenue related to medical diagnostic services provided during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and revenue presented represents adjustments of variable consideration received for procedures performed in years prior to 2019.estimate is made.

Lease Revenues

Rental revenues from operating leases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rental billings for periods extending beyond period end are recorded as deferred income and are recognized in the period earned. For the QVH Leases, rental related services revenues for support, maintenance and video processing, delivery, and installation are lease related because the payments are considered minimum lease payments that are an integral part of the negotiated lease agreement with the customer. These revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. As of the year ended December 31, 2020 the Company’s leases consisted solely of operating leases.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities line of credit and notes payable as reflected in the consolidated financial statements, approximates fair value. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value. We maintain cash and cash equivalents in banks which at times may exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses on these deposits.

Inventories

During the year ended December 31, 2019 the Company determined its inventory to be worthless based on advances in technology that rendered inventories obsolete. Accordingly, during the years ended December 31, 2019, the company recognized a provision for inventory obsolescence of $116,221 to completely write-off inventory.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed of, the related carrying cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and the net difference, less any amount realized from the disposition, is recorded in operations. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expenses as incurred. Costs of significant improvements and renewals are capitalized.

Property and equipment consist of computers and equipment and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives of three years, using the straight-line method.

Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Intangible assets acquired are initially recognized at cost. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognized at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition. Intangibles with a finite life are amortized, ratably, based on the contractual terms of the associated agreements. 

Goodwill recognized in a business combination is subjective and represents the value of the excess amount given to the acquired company above the estimated fair market value of the identifiable net assets on the acquisition date. Each year, during the fourth quarter, the goodwill amount is reviewed to determine if any impairment has occurred. Impairment occurs when the original amount of goodwill exceeds the value of the expected future net cash flows from the business acquired. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company noted significant indicators of impairment, and performed an impairment test on goodwill, noting the discounted future cash flows did not support the goodwill balance particularly because of the Company’s reduced emphasis on the marketing and development of the QVH. The result of our analysis was a full impairment of goodwill of $170,200 as of December 31, 2019.

Long-Lived Assets

We periodically review and evaluate long-lived assets, such as intangible assets when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. In performing our review for recoverability, we estimate the future cash flows expected to result from the use of such assets and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted future operating cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the related assets, an impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the excess of the carrying amount of such assets over the fair value calculated using discounted expected future cash flows.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Assets that expose us to credit risk consist primarily of cash and accounts receivable. Our accounts receivable arise from a diversified customer base and, therefore, we believe the concentration of credit risk is minimal. We evaluate the creditworthiness of customers before any services are provided. We record a discount based on the nature of our business, collection trends, and an assessment of our ability to fully realize amounts billed for services. Based on our analysis we established anWe have no accounts receivable to warrant any allowance for doubtful accounts of $585,257 and $589,243, at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.2022 or December 31, 2021.

Stock Based Compensation

We account for the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options, based on estimated fair values. Under authoritative guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), companies are required to estimate the fair value or calculated value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of awards that are ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our consolidated statements of operations. We use the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model to determine the fair-value of stock-based awards. During the years ended December 31, 20202022 and 2019,2021, we did not recognize any compensation expense for the issuance of our common stock in exchange for services.during those periods.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with the liability method. Under the liability method, deferred assets and liabilities are recognized based upon anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. We establish a valuation allowance to the extent that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be utilized against future taxable income.

Uncertain Tax Positions

Accounting Standards Codification “ASC” Topic 740-10-25 defines the minimum threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements as “more likely than not” (i.e., a likelihood of occurrence greater than fifty percent). Under ASC Topic 740-10-25, the recognition threshold is met when an entity concludes that a tax position, based solely on its technical merits, is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the relevant taxing authority. Those tax positions failing to qualify for initial recognition are recognized in the first interim period in which they meet the more likely than not standard or are resolved through negotiation or litigation with the taxing authority, or upon expiration of the statute of limitations. De-recognition of a tax position that was previously recognized occurs when an entity subsequently determines that a tax position no longer meets the more likely than not threshold of being sustained.

We are subject to ongoing tax exposures, examinations and assessments in various jurisdictions. Accordingly, we may incur additional tax expense based upon the outcomes of such matters. In addition, whenWhen applicable, we will adjust tax expense to reflect our ongoing assessments of such matters which require judgment and can materially increase or decrease our effective rate as well as impact operating results.

Under ASC Topic 740-10-25, only the portion of the liability that is expected to be paid within one year is classified as a current liability. As a result, liabilities expected to be resolved without the payment of cash (e.g. resolution due to the expiration of the statute of limitations) or are not expected to be paid within one year are not classified as current. We have recently adopted a policy of recording estimatedEstimated interest and penalties are recognized as income tax expense and tax credits as a reduction in income tax expense. For the yearsyear ended December 31, 2020 and 2019,2022, we recognized no estimated interest or penalties as income tax expense.

Legal Costs and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, we incur costs to hire and retain external legal counsel to advise us on regulatory, litigation and other matters. We expense these costs as the related services are received.

If a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, we recognize an expense for the estimated loss. If we have the potential to recover a portion of the estimated loss from a third party, we make a separate assessment of recoverability and reduce the estimated loss if recovery is also deemed probable.

Net Loss per Share

Basic and diluted net loss per common share is presented in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” for all periods presented. During the years ended December 31, 20202022 and 2019,2021, common stock equivalents from outstanding stock options and warrants have been excluded from the calculation of the diluted loss per share in the consolidated statements of operations, because all such securities were anti-dilutive. The net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU No. 2016-13 eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and, instead, requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. In addition, ASU No. 2016-13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10 to amend the effective date for entities that had not yet adopted ASU No. 2016-13. Accordingly, the provisions of ASU No. 2016-13 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with early application permitted in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The amendments of ASU No. 2016-13 should be applied through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Management is currently evaluating the future impact of ASU No. 2016-13 on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and disclosures.

NOTE 4.ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Accounts receivable arise from patients billed by the healthcare providers based on CPT codes as described in Note 1. Our customers, patients who receive medical services at diagnostic centers, are typically patients involved in auto accidents or work injuries. Patients complete and sign medical and financial paperwork, which includes an acknowledgement of each patient’s responsibility for payment for the services provided. Additionally, the paperwork should include an assignment of benefits.  The timing of collection of receivables varies depending on patient sources of payment. Historical experience, through 2018, demonstrated that the collection period for individual cases may extend for two years or more. Accordingly, we have classified receivables as current or long term based on our experience, which indicates as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 that 30% of cases will be collected within one year of a medical procedure.

Our credit policy has been established based upon extensive experience by management in the industry and has been determined to ensure that collectability is reasonably assured.  Payment for services are primarily made to us by a third party and the credit policy includes terms of net 240 days for collections; however, collections occur upon settlement or judgment of cases.common stock.

Due to uncertainties surrounding our ability to generate future taxable income to realize these assets, a full valuation has been established to offset the net deferred income tax asset. Based on management’s assessment, utilizing an effective combined tax rate for federal and state taxes of approximately 21%, we have determined that it is not currently more likely than not that we will realize our deferred income tax assets of approximately $2,564,000 and $2,502,000 attributable predominantly to the future utilization of the approximate $11,605,000 and $11,374,000 in eligible net operating loss carryforwards, and the allowance for doubtful accounts, as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate. The net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in varying amounts from year 2021 to 2039, with those net operating losses generated during the year ended December 31, 2020 set to never expire based on the provisions of the Tax Reform Act.

Current income tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, amounts available to offset future taxable income may be limited under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.

NOTE 11. LEASE REVENUES

The Company’s QVH unit rentals are governed by agreements that detail the lease terms and conditions. The determination of whether these contracts with customers contain a lease generally does not require significant judgement. The Company accounts for these rentals as operating leases. These leases do not include material amounts of variable payments and the Company has made the accounting policy election to exclude all taxes assessed by a governmental authority. The Company provides an option of the lessee to purchase the rented equipment upon the termination of the lease for the as then fair market value; however, the Company has not generated material revenue from sales of equipment under such options.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Not applicable.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

William Donovan, M.D.,Benjamin B. Tran, our President and Chief Executive Officer, is our principal executive officer and John Bergeron,Robert J. Brilon, our Chief Financial Officer, is our principal financial officer.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2020.2022. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and adequately designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms and that such information was accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, in a manner that allowed for timely decisions regarding disclosure.

ManagementsManagement’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i)

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

(ii)

(ii)provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements; and

(iii)

(iii)provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized transactions.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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 policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework and Internal Control over Financial Reporting Guidance for Smaller Public Companies.

Our management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020.2022. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2020,2022, we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 20202022 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

33

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that its disclosure controls or internal controls 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. In addition, 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 the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.

Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management’s override of the control. The design of any systems of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controlcontrols may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Individual persons perform multiple tasks which normally would be allocated to separate persons and therefore extra diligence must be exercised during the period these tasks are combined.

Greg Trimarche. On December 21, 2022, the Company and Mr. Trimarche entered into an Independent Contractor Agreement (the “Independent Contractor Agreement”) whereby Mr. Trimarche agreed to serve as a member of the Company’s board of directors. The Independent Contractor Agreement may be terminated by either party on 15 days prior written notice without cause or five days after written notice in the event of a breach of the agreement by either party.

As Compensation for Mr. Trimarche’s service to the Company as a director, the Company awarded him an option to purchase 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) at an exercise price of $0.07 per share (the “Stock Option”). The Stock Option vests as to 25% of the Option Shares on each December 21, beginning December 21, 2023, so long as Mr. Trimarche is providing services to the Company or one of its subsidiaries; provided, however, the vesting is subject to acceleration such that if Mr. Trimarche is terminated from his role without cause (as defined in the Stock Option) the number of shares subject to the Stock Option in the year of termination shall vest plus the number of shares that would have vested in the following year. In the event Mr. Trimarche’s service as a member of the Board is terminated with cause, the number of shares subject to the Stock Option in the year of termination shall vest. The value of the option awards will be recorded in the year that they vest.

Compensation Policies and Practices as they Relate to Risk Management

We attempt to make our compensation programs discretionary, balanced and focused on the long term. We believe goals and objectives of our compensation programs reflect a balanced mix of quantitative and qualitative performance measures to avoid excessive weight on a single performance measure. Our approach to compensation practices and policies applicable to employees and consultants is consistent with that followed for its executives. Based on these factors, we believe that our compensation policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.
