NOTE 1 – GENERAL

General

Mawson Infrastructure Group, Inc. (the “Company” or “Mawson” or “we”), formerly known as Wize Pharma, Inc, and before that, known as OphthaliX Inc., was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 10, 2012.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements, including the results of the Company’s subsidiaries;subsidiaries: Mawson Infrastructure Group Pty Ltd (“Mawson AU”, previously known as Cosmos Capital Limited), Cosmos Trading Pty Ltd, Cosmos Infrastructure LLC, Cosmos Manager LLC, MIG No.1 Pty Ltd, Cosmos Asset Management Pty Ltd,Mawson AU Limited (incorporated June 8, 2022), Luna Squares LLC, BITTD Pty Ltd,Luna Squares Texas LLC (formed January 27, 2022), Luna Squares Repairs LLC, Luna Squares Property LLC and Mawson Mining LLC (collectively referred to as the “Group”), have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). Wize NC Inc, Occuwize Ltd and Wize Pharma Ltd are additional subsidiaries of Mawson, however these companies have not been consolidated into the financial statements as these companies are subject to contingent value rights (“CVR”), refer to note 9.further described in NOTE 10.

These consolidated, condensed unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Mawson and subsidiariesthe Group as of December 31, 2021, and the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with SEC on March 21, 2022. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United StatesU.S GAAP for complete financial statements. The results of the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ended December 31, 2022. These consolidated, condensed interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented.

Mawson, through its subsidiary Mawson AU,subsidiaries, is a ‘Digital Asset Infrastructure’ business, which owns and operates modular data centers (“MDCs”) based in the United States and Australia. As at March 31, 2021June 30, 2022 Mawson AU currently ownsowned and hashad ordered 39,22535,329 Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (“ASIC”) computers known as “Miners,” specifically focused on the SHA-256 algorithm, from a variety of manufacturers, including Bitmain Technology Holding Company (“Bitmain”), Canaan Creative (HK) Holdings Limited (“Canaan”) and Shenzhen MicroBT Electronics Technology Co., Ltd (“Whatsminer”).

Going Concern

For the six-month period ending June 30, 2022, the Company incurred a loss after tax of $13.98 million, and as at June 30, 2022 had net current liabilities of $55.96 million and had an accumulated deficit of $82.95 million. The Company’s cash position at June 30, 2022, was $2.50 million. These conditions raise substantial doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least a year from the date of approval of these unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Management of the Company believes that there are reasonable grounds to conclude that the Company will continue as a going concern after having regard for the following factors.

The Company’s plans include improving profitability and generating sufficient cash flow from operations.

Management of the Company is of the opinion that the Company can continue to access adequate debt and equity funding to meet its working capital requirements. In July 2022, the Company raised $3.60 million through an issue of secured convertible promissory notes and an aggregate of $5.62 million of net proceeds from the issuance of shares and warrants. The Company has the ability through its At the Market Offering Agreement (the “ATM Agreement”) with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC (“Wainwright”), to sell shares of our common stock with an aggregate sales price of up to $100 million. To the extent the Group were to raise additional capital or debt, this could cause additional dilution to our current stockholders. The terms of any future capital raise or debt issuance and the costs of any financing are uncertain. There are no assurances that the Group would be able to raise additional financing when needed or that it would be able to do so on favourable terms.

Based on internally prepared forecastedforecast cash flows combined with the existing cash reserves, which take into consideration what management of the Group considers to be reasonable scenarios given the inherent risks and uncertainties, described in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,combined with existing cash balances, management believes that the GroupCompany will have adequate cash reserves to enable the Groupbe able to meet its obligations as they fall due for at least one year from the date of approval of thethese unaudited consolidated financial statements, and on this basisstatements.

Accordingly, management of the accounts have been preparedCompany believe that it is appropriate to prepare the Group’s financial statements on a going concern basis. However, should the Company be unable to source sufficient funding through the factors noted above, the Company may not be able to realize assets at their recognized values and extinguish its liabilities in the normal course of business at the amounts stated in these unaudited consolidated financial statements.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and carrying amounts of assets and the amounts of liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and meet its obligations and debts as and when they fall due.

NOTE 2 -– SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and basis of preparation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its wholly or majority owned and controlled subsidiaries.subsidiaries, other than those subsidiaries subject to the CVR described more in NOTE 10. Intercompany investments, balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Non–controlling interests representsrepresent the minority equity investment in the Company’s subsidiaries, plus the minority investors’ share of the net operating results and other components of equity relating to the non–controlling interest.

Any changes in the Company’s ownership interest in a consolidated subsidiary, through additional equity issuances by the consolidated subsidiary or from the Company acquiring the shares from existing shareholders, in which the Company maintains control is recognized as an equity transaction, with appropriate adjustments to both the Company’s additional paid-in capital and the corresponding non-controlling interest.

On March 9, 2021, Mawson AU was acquired by the Company. For accounting purposes, this was accounted for as a reverse asset acquisition with Mawson AU as the accounting acquirer (refer to significant accounting policies below). The result of which is that these financial statements are taken to be a continuation of Mawson AU’s financial statements, with the Company incorporated within the acquisition and therefore the historical financial information of Mawson AU (then known as Cosmos Capital Limited) prior to March 9, 2021, became the historical financial information of Mawson AU, which have been consolidated into the financial statements of the Company. 

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company evaluates on an ongoing basis its assumptions. The Company’s management believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions used are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made.

These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company has considered the following to be significant estimates made by management, including but not limited to, going concern assumptions, estimating the useful lives of fixed assets, realization of long-lived assets, unrealized tax positions and the realization of digital currencies, valuing the derivative asset classified under Level 3 fair value hierarchy, business combinations, reverse asset acquisition, and the contingent obligation with respect to future revenues.

Critical Accounting Policies

Critical accounting policies are described in the consolidated financial statements for Mawson included in the Company’s 10-KAnnual Report on Form10-K filed with SEC on March 21, 2022. There have been nosome changes to critical accounting policies in the threesix months period ended March 31, 2022, other than theJune 30, 2022. The reverse asset acquisition accounting policy which is no longer considered to be a critical accounting policy and has therefore been included in significant accounting policies and the fair value of financial instruments has been moved from significant accounting policies to critical accounting policies.

Revenue Recognition – Digital asset mining revenue

The Company recognizes revenue under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of ASC 606 is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Five steps are required to be followed in evaluating revenue recognition: (i) identify the contract with the customer; (ii) identity the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price; and (v) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfied a performance obligation.

In order to identify the performance obligations in a contract with a customer, a company must assess the promised goods or services in the contract and identify each promised good or service that is distinct. A performance obligation meets ASC 606’s definition of a “distinct” good or service (or bundle of goods or services) if both of the following criteria are met: The customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the customer (i.e., the good or service is capable of being distinct), and the entity’s promise to transfer the good or service to the customer is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract (i.e., the promise to transfer the good or service is distinct within the context of the contract).

There is currently no specific definitive guidance in U.S. GAAP or alternative accounting frameworks for the accounting of managing digital currencies and management has exercised significant judgement in determining appropriate accounting treatment for the recognition of revenue for such operations.

The Company has entered into a contract with mining pools and has undertaken the performance obligation of providing computing power in exchange for non-cash consideration in the form of cryptocurrency. The provision of computing power is the only performance obligation in the Group’s contract with its pool operators. In certain pools the amount of reward for computing power depends on the pool’s success in mining blocks. In other pools, the amount of reward includes no such contingency, although the fees payable to such pools are typically higher as a result. Where the consideration received is variable (for example, due to payment only being made upon successful mining), it is recognized when it is highly probable that the variability is resolved, which is generally when the cryptocurrency is received.

The Company measures the non-cash consideration received at the fair market value of the cryptocurrency received. Management estimates fair value on a daily basis, as the quantity of cryptocurrency received multiplied by the price quoted on the crypto exchanges that the Company uses to dispose of cryptocurrency on the day it was received.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. The cost includes any cost of replacing part of the property and equipment with the original cost of the replaced part being derecognized. All other repair and maintenance costs are recognized in profit or loss incurred. The present value of the expected cost for the decommissioning of an asset after its use is included in the cost of the respective asset if the recognition criteria for a provision are met. Property, plant and equipment transferred from customers is initially measured at the fair value at the date on which control is obtained.

The depreciable amount of fixed assets is depreciated on a straight-line or declining balance basis based on the asset classification, over their useful lives to the economic entity commencing from the time the assets arrive at their destination where they are ready for use. Depreciation is calculated over the following estimated useful lives:

An item of property, plant and equipment and any significant part initially recognized is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is included in the income statement when the asset is derecognized.

The residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation of property, plant and equipment are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

The Company changed its policy in relation to freight costs in relation to processing machines with effect from October 1, 2021. Prior to this date these costs were expensed to the statement of operations and profit and loss, and afterwards these costs are capitalized into processing machinery. This change resulted in an increase in processing machines in the balance sheet of $2,040,387$2,978,232 at March 31,June 30, 2022, and an increase in the depreciation charge to the six months to June 30, 2022 statement of operations and profit and loss of $84,735 over the prior treatment.

The Company’s long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. During the six month periods ended March 31,June 30, 2022, and 2021, no impairment losses have been identified.

Fair value of financial instruments:

The Company accounts for financial instruments under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements. This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:

Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — observable inputs other than Level 1, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, and model-derived prices whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable; and

Level 3 — assets and liabilities whose significant value drivers are unobservable. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs are based on the Company’s market assumptions. Unobservable inputs require significant management judgment or estimation. In some cases, the inputs used to measure an asset or liability may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is required to be classified using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Such determination requires significant management judgment.

Level 3 Assets:

Power Supply Agreement

During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a derivative asset related to its Power Supply Agreement with Energy Harbor LLC, the energy supplier to the Company’s Pennsylvania Facility. The Power Supply Agreement was classified as a derivative asset and measured at fair value on the date of Power Supply Agreement, with changes in fair value recognized in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The estimated fair value of the Company’s derivate asset is classified in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy due to the significant unobservable inputs utilized in the valuation. Specifically, our discounted cash flow estimation models contain quoted commodity exchange spot and forward prices and are adjusted for basis spreads for load zone-to-hub differentials through the term of the Power Supply Agreement, which ends in December 2026. In addition, the Group adopted a further discount rate utilized of approximately 20% above the terminal value of the observable market inputs, but also includes unobservable inputs based on qualitative judgment related to company-specific risk factors. The terms of the Power Supply Agreement require pre-payment of collateral, calculated as forward cost based on the market cost rate of electricity versus the fixed price stated in the contract.

Tasmania Data Infrastructure Pty Ltd (“TDI”)

During June 2022 Mawson AU Limited entered into a License and Services Agreement with TDI in exchange for 42,562,432 fully paid issued shares in TDI, this is held at fair value of $1.47 million as at June 30, 2022 the fair value uses unobservable inputs.

Level 1 Assets:

The company holds 50 million shares in DXN Limited (“DXN”), an Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”) listed company. This is recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the DXN investment is classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy as it is quoted on an active market, that being the ASX. 

Accounting for Power Supply Contract

In June 2022, the company entered into a Power Supply Agreement with Energy Harbor LLC to provide the delivery of a fixed portion of the total amount of electricity for a fixed price through to December 2026. If the Pennsylvania site uses more electricity than contracted, the cost of the excess is incurred at a new price quoted by Energy Harbor.

While the Company manages operating costs at the Pennsylvania Facility in part by periodically selling unused or uneconomical power back to the market, we do not consider such actions trading activities. That is, the Company does not engage in speculation in the power market as part of our ordinary activities. Because the sale of any electricity under a curtailment program allows for net settlement, we have determined the Power Supply Agreement meets the definition of a derivative under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, (“ASC 815”). However, because the Company has the ability to sell the power back to the grid rather than take physical delivery, physical delivery is not probable through the entirety of the contract and therefore, we do not believe the normal purchases and normal sales scope exception applies to the Power Supply Agreement. Accordingly, the Power Supply Agreement (the non-hedging derivative contract) is recorded at estimated fair value each reporting period with the change in the fair value recorded in change in fair value of derivative asset in the consolidated statements of operations (refer to fair value of financial instruments policy).

Share based payments

The Company follows FASB Codification Topic ASC 718-10 Compensation-Stock Compensation. The Company expenses stock-based compensation to employees and non-employees over the requisite service period based on the estimated grant-date fair value of the awards. The Company determines the grant date fair value of the restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates and involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. These assumptions are the expected stock volatility, the risk–free interest rate, the expected life of the option, the dividend yield on the underlying stock and the expected forfeiture rate. Expected volatility computes stock price volatility over expected terms based on its historical common stock trading prices. Risk–free interest rates are calculated based on the implied yield available on U. S. 10-year Treasury bond.

Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition - Hosting Co-location revenue

The Company provides power for our co-location hosting customers on a variable basis which is received monthly from the customer based on the power usage at the rate outlined in each customer contract.

We recognize variable power revenue each month as the uncertainty related to the consideration is resolved, power is provided to our customers, and our customers utilize the power (the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the Company’s performance).

The customer contracts contain performance obligations, variable consideration in such contracts to be allocated to and recognized in the period to which the consideration relates. Usually this is when it is invoiced, rather than obtaining an estimation of variable consideration at the beginning of the customer contracts.

Customers also are invoiced a fixed monthly fee for maintenance services which include, cleaning, cabling and other services to maintain the customers’ equipment.

Revenue Recognition - Sale of crypto currency mining equipment

Crypto currency mining equipment sales revenue includes revenues related to the sale of Miners. This is recognized as revenue upon delivery to the customer, which is when the control of the Miner transfers. Payments are typically received at the point control transfers or in accordance with payment terms customary to the business.

Revenue recognition – equipment sales

The Company earned revenues from the sale of earlier generation cryptocurrency mining units and modular data centers that have been assembled or refurbished for resale (collectively “Hardware”). Revenue from the sale of Hardware is recognized when all of the following conditions are satisfied: (i) persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists, (ii) the sales terms are fixed or determinable, (iii) title and risk of loss have transferred, and (iv) payment is received. At the date of sale, the net book value is expensed in cost of revenues.

Cost of revenues:

Cost of revenue consists primarily of expenses that are directly related to providing the Company’s service to its paying customers. These primarily consist of costs associated with operating our co-location facilities such as direct power costs, energy costs (including any carbon offset acquired during the year), freight costs and material costs related to cryptocurrency mining.

Research and development expenses:

Research and development expenses are charged to the statement of comprehensive loss as incurred.

Income taxes:

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance may be established to reduce the deferred tax asset to the level at which it is “more likely than not” that the tax asset or benefits will be realized. Realization of tax benefits of deductible temporary differences and operating loss carryforwards depends on having sufficient taxable income of an appropriate character within the carryback or carryforward periods.

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained upon review by the taxing authority. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.

Functional currency:

All subsidiaries of Company have a functional currency of United States dollar (“USD”) with the exceptions of Mawson Infrastructure Group Pty Ltd, MIG No.1 Pty Ltd, Cosmos Trading Pty Ltd BITTD Pty Ltd and Cosmos Asset Management Pty LtdMawson AU Limited whose functional currency is the Australian Dollar (“AUD”). The financial statements of foreign businesses have been translated into USD at current exchange rates for balance sheet items and at the average rate for income statement items. Translation of all the consolidated companies’ financial records into USD is required due to the reporting currency for these consolidated financial statements presented as USD and the functional currency of the parent company being that of AUD. Translation adjustments are accumulated in other comprehensive loss. Revenue and expense accounts are converted at prevailing rates throughout the year. Gains or losses on foreign currency transactions and translation adjustments in highly inflationary economies are recorded in income in the period in which they are incurred.

Segment Reporting:

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision–making group in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our chief operating decision–making group is composed of the chief executive officer. We currently operate in one segment surrounding our cryptocurrency mining operation.

Cash and cash equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, cash held with digital currency exchanges, and other short-term and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities of three months or less.

Digital Currencies

Digital currencies are included in current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Digital currencies are classified as indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, and are accounted for in connection with the Company’s revenue recognition policy detailed above.

The following table presents the Company’s digital currency (Bitcoin) activities for the quarterthree months and six months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021: June 30, 2022:

Digital currency is not amortized but assessed for impairment annually, or more frequently, when events or changes in circumstances occur indicating that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived asset is impaired. Impairment exists when the carrying amount exceeds its fair value. In testing for impairment, the Company has the option to first perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that an impairment exists. If it is determined that it is not more likely than not that an impairment exists, a quantitative impairment test is not necessary. If the Company concludes otherwise, it is required to perform a quantitative impairment test. To the extent an impairment loss is recognized, the loss establishes the new cost basis of the asset. Subsequent reversal of impairment losses is not permitted.

The Company’s policy is to dispose of production at the earliest opportunity, therefore the holding period is minimal, usually no more than a few days. Due to the short period which Bitcoin are held prior to sale and the consequent small numbers held, the risk of impairment is not material.

Equipment deposits:

The Company records a prepaid expense for costs paid but not yet incurred. Those expected to be incurred within one year are recognized and shown as equipment deposits. Equipment deposits result from advance payments to suppliers for goods to be received in the future. Equipment deposits are initially recognized as assets at the date the amount is paid, and are subsequently recorded as equipment as the Company takes delivery and control of the equipment from the supplier. Amounts are recognized initially at the amount of the unconditional consideration. They are subsequently measured at cost, less loss allowance.

Reverse Asset Acquisition:

On March 9, 2021, the Company acquired the shares of Cosmos Capital Limited (now known as Mawson Infrastructure Group Pty Ltd and referred to herein as Mawson AU) in a stock for stock exchange. This transaction has been accounted for as a reverse asset acquisition. This transaction reverse asset acquisition and the associated impact is referred to as the “Cosmos Transaction”.

��

Under the terms of the Cosmos Transaction Bid Implementation Agreement, the Company was required to make share basedshare-based payments consisting of up to 40,000,000 shares under an Incentive Compensation Program and warrants issued to HC Wainwright as a fee related to the acquisition by Mawson of Mawson AU. In addition, Mawson AU had an outstanding obligation to W Capital Advisors Pty Ltd (“W Capital”) for options over the equity of Mawson AU which was terminated for consideration of warrants over the Company’s shares being issued to W Capital.

Fair value of financial instruments:

The Company accounts for financial instruments under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements. This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:

Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — observable inputs other than Level 1, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, and model-derived prices whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable; and

Level 3 — assets and liabilities whose significant value drivers are unobservable. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs are based on the Company’s market assumptions. Unobservable inputs require significant management judgment or estimation. In some cases, the inputs used to measure an asset or liability may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is required to be classified using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Such determination requires significant management judgment.

Of the Company’s financial instruments on the Company’s balance sheet as at March 31, 2022, the only item measured and recorded at fair value is the Marketable Securities of $336,897, which are categorized as Level 1.

Concentrations of credit risk:

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted bank deposits are invested in banks in Australia and the U.S. If the counterparty completely failed to perform in accordance with the terms of the contract, is the maximum amount of loss the Company would be the balance. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold the Company’s investments are financially sound and, accordingly, minimal credit risk exists with respect to these investments. The Company has no off-balance-sheet concentration of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, option contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements.

Legal and other contingencies: 

The Company accounts for its contingent liabilities in accordance with ASC 450 “Contingencies”. A provision is recorded when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. With respect to legal matters, provisions are reviewed and adjusted to reflect the impact of negotiations, estimated settlements, legal rulings, advice of legal counsel and other information and events pertaining to a particular matter. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred. As of March 31,June 30, 2022, the Company is not a party to any litigation that couldwould reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Leases:

The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases which was effective January 1, 2019. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Using ASC 842 leases are classified as operating or finance leases on the Balance Sheet as a right of use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities within current liabilities and long-term liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. The Company’s lease does not provide an implicit rate and therefore the Company measured the ROU asset and lease obligation based upon the present value of future minimum lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is estimated based on risk-free discount rate for the lease, determined using a period comparable with that of the lease term and in a similar economic environment. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise such options. The Company does not record leases on the consolidated balance sheets with a term of one year or less. The Company does not separate lease and non-lease components but rather account for each separate component as a single lease component for all underlying classes of assets. Where leases contain escalation clauses, rent abatements, or concessions, such as rent holidays and landlord or tenant incentives or allowances, the Company applies them in the determination of straight-line operating lease cost over the lease term.

NOTE 3 – BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER SHARE

The computation of diluted net loss per share does not include dilutive common stock equivalents in the weighted average shares outstanding, as they would be anti-dilutive.
