Overview

At HyperSolar, Inc.,SunHydrogen, our goal is to replace all forms of energy on earthfossil fuels with clean renewable energy.hydrogen.

Inspired byOur patented low-cost technology is intended to produce renewable hydrogen using sunlight and any source of water, including seawater and wastewater. Unlike non-renewable hydrocarbon fuels, such as oil, coal and natural gas, where carbon dioxide and other contaminants are released into the photosynthetic process that plants use to harnessatmosphere when used, hydrogen fuel produces pure water as the poweronly product. By optimizing the science of photoelectrolysis at the sun to create energy molecules, we are developing a novel solar-powered particle system that mimicsnano-level, our low-cost nanoparticles mimic photosynthesis to separateefficiently use sunlight to split water molecules into renewable hydrogen. Using our low-cost method to produce renewable hydrogen, from water.we intend to enable a world of distributed hydrogen production for renewable electricity and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.

Hydrogen is the lightest and most abundant chemical element, constituting roughly 75% of the universe’s chemical elemental mass (Palmer, D. (13 September 1997). “Hydrogen in the Universe.” NASA). In its purest form, hydrogen is a non-toxic colorless and odorless gas. However, naturally occurring elemental hydrogen is relatively rare on earth and hydrogen gas is most often produced using fossil fuels. Industrial production of hydrogen is mainly from the steam reforming of natural gas and is usually employed near its production site, with the two largest usesapplications being crude oil processing (hydrocracking) and ammonia production, mostly for the fertilizer market. We are developing what we believe is a cleaner and greener way to produce this high value product.hydrogen.

Hydrogen (when used as a fuel),fuel, like electricity, is an energy carrier rather than an energy resource.source. We believe that if hydrogen was easily accessed from the earth andaccessible for the world couldto depend on it, for fuel, eliminating our reliance onthe challenging global issues associated with the widespread usages of fossil fuels, such as oil, coal, and natural gas, our carbon footprint and global climate change issuesand air pollution would be erased.

Over 99% of hydrogen produced today is produced using a fossil fuel, methane (natural gas) in a method called steam methane reforming SMR.(SMR). Although commercially optimized over decades, the SMR process is capital intensive and will remain so due to the fundamental nature of the process which includes: (1) three separate reactors with different catalysts operating at different temperatures, (2) large amounts of heat transfer needed for the endothermic reforming and exothermic water gas shift, and (3) the need to remove all carbon oxides using capital and energy intensive methods. (source: Nikolaidis, P.; Poullikkas, A., A comparative overview of hydrogen production processes. Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews 2017, 67, 597-611.)

Besides being capital intensive, the SMR method releases harmful levels of carbon dioxide and other pollutants into the air further contributing to our global climate crisis.

DespiteWe believe renewable hydrogen is the current methodfuel of production, the benefitsfuture. The main challenge has been the high cost of hydrogen for transportation emissions are far better than other fossil fuel alternatives of oilproduction and gas,transportation. We believe a low-cost distributed production technology, such as the only emissionSunHydrogen technology, is the way to enable a world of hydrogen is pure water. This fact dictates that we look for another method of making hydrogen to make it the world’s premier fuel by producing it in a more sustainable green way.clean and renewable energy.

Market Opportunity

We believe we are still in the early stages of the hydrogen fuel market, development, and yet, this market continues to grow exponentially. One of the reasons for this growth is the adoption of hydrogen fuel technologies within an increased number of major industries and spanning many applications.

Furthermore, recent government mandates for renewable energy have created a real and sustainable market opportunity for renewable hydrogen. Most states in the United States have legislative mandates to use between 10-45% of renewable energy by 2050, some states have mandates for 100% by 2050. These include California (100% by 2045), Colorado (100% by 2050), Hawaii (100% by 2045), Virginia (100% by 2050), Washington (100% by 2045), Washington DC (100% by 2032) and Puerto Rico (100% by 2050). (https://www.ncsl.org/research/energy/renewable-portfolio-standards.aspx)

While solar and wind electricity have been the dominate form of renewable energy, the sun does not always shine and the wind does not always blow. Therefore, we believe a direct solar-to-hydrogen technology which immediately stores solar energy as hydrogen can turn solar energy into a primary and reliable source of energy just like coal and natural gas – but cleaner and greener.

Existing Market Growth

According to a Global Market Insights study released in June 2019, the global hydrogen generation market size is predicted to be valued at USD 180$180 billion by 2024. Strict regulatory norms to reduce sulfur content with measures to reduce the carbon footprint is expected to drive the global hydrogen generation market size. U.S. federal and state governments have adopted various programs including the Tier 3 program to reduce the sulfur content in gasoline, motor oil, and diesel and which aims to lower the gasoline sulfur content up to 10 ppm in 2017.

Growing demand for petroleum products from developing countries is anticipated to also drive the hydrogen generation market size in the coming years. Hydrogen is used in various refining processes including hydrocracking and hydrodesulfurization to crack bigger molecules into lighter ones and more usable products.

Strong investment for the expansion and upgrade of refineries to fulfill emission and sulfur content regulation is expected to stimulate the growth of the hydrogen generation market. Increasing heavy crude oil consumption demand will complement the industry landscape. Positive outlook towards the chemical industry including ammonia and methanol will also positively influence growth.

We believe increasing demand for clean fuel energy will be affected by:

It is within these industries that we believe our renewable hydrogen producing technology possesses significant early market opportunity, especially as innovation and infrastructure continue to develop.

Utility Scale Hydrogen Electricity

According to a March 2013 report from NREL, a national laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy, Hydrogen can be blended into the existing natural gas pipeline networks, thus bypassing the high cost of dedicated hydrogen pipelines in order to use hydrogen at a large scale. If implemented with relatively low concentrations, less than 5%–15% hydrogen by volume, this strategy of storing and delivering renewable hydrogen to markets appears to be viable without significantly increasing risks associated with utilization of the gas blend in end-use devices (such as household appliances), overall public safety, or the durability and integrity of the existing natural gas pipeline network. (https://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy13osti/51995.pdf).

Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles

One of the most recognized applications for hydrogen fuel technologies falls within the auto manufacturing and vehicles industries. The three leading manufacturers of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) are in order, Toyota, Hyundai, and Honda – three internationally recognized companies. Industry reports cite the need for increased infrastructure, such as fueling stations, for the industry to garner even greater market acceptance. However, the same report indicates there will be 22.2 million hydrogen fuel cell vehicles sold or leased by 2032, driving revenues upwards of $1.1 trillion. (https://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/4200873/global-market-for-hydrogen-fuel-cell-vehicles).

Our Technology 

Technology for Making Renewable Hydrogen from Sunlight and Water

Hydrogen (H₂) is the third most abundant element on earth and the cleanest fuel in the universe, (Dresselhaus, Mildred et al. (May 15, 2003). “Basic Research Needs for the Hydrogen Economy”). Unlike hydrocarbon fuels such as oil, coal and natural gas where carbon dioxide and other contaminants are released into the atmosphere when used, hydrogen fuel usage produces only pure water (H₂O). Unfortunately, nearly no pure hydrogen ( existexists naturally on earth and therefore must be extracted from hydrogen containing molecules like water. Historically, the cost of manufacturing hydrogen as an alternative fuel has been higher than the cost of the energy used to make it. This is the dilemma of the hydrogen economy, and one that we aim to address.

For over a century, water electrolysis, splitting water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen due to the passage of electric current, has been a well-established technology to produce hydrogen. This technology can be used to produce an unlimited amount of pure hydrogen fuel from the abundant water covering 70-percent of the Earth’s surface. The produced hydrogen combusts into water that can be recycled back into nature indefinitely. However, in practice, current commercial water electrolysis technologies takes a lot ofrequire considerable energy from coal-powered electricity and also require ultra-pure water to prevent fouling of the system components. We believe these are the major barriers to affordable production of hydrogen.

The Perfect and Sustainable Energy Cycle

As it turns out, Mother Nature has been making hydrogen using sunlight since the beginning of time by splitting water molecules ((H(H₂O)) into its basic elements - hydrogen and oxygen. This is exactly what plant leaves do every day by way of photosynthesis. Since the produced hydrogen is immediately consumed inside the plant, we cannot simply grow trees to make hydrogen.

If technology can be developed to mimic photosynthesis to split water into hydrogen, we believe then a truly sustainable, low cost, and renewable energy cycle can be created to power the earth. However, cost has been the biggest barrier to realizing this vision.

Water Splitting

In the process of splitting a water molecule, input energy is transferred into the chemical bonds. So in essence, manufactured hydrogen is simply a carrier or battery-like storage of the input energy. If the input energy is from fossil fuels, such as oil and gas, then carbon fossil fuel energy is simply transferred into hydrogen. If the input energy is renewable such as solar and wind, then new and clean energy is stored in hydrogen.

While the concept of water splitting is very appealing, the following challenges must be addressed for renewable hydrogen to be commercially viable:

Technology

Water electrolysis in its simplest form is the transfer of “input electrons” in the following chemical reactions:

From these equations, itone can be deduceddeduce that if every input electron (e-(e^-) is put to work and not lost, then a maximum amount of input electrons (i.e. energy) is transferred and stored in the hydrogen molecules (H2)(H₂). Additionally, if there were a very high number of cathode and anode reaction areas within a given volume of water, then a very high number of these reactions could happen simultaneously throughout the medium to split each water molecule into hydrogen wherever electrons are available.

HyperSolar H2Generator™SunHydrogen Panel™

Since our particles are intended to mimic the natural room temperature conditions of photosynthesis, they can be housed in very low-cost reactors such as glass vessels or clear plastic bags.reactors. To facilitate the commercial use of our self-contained particle technology we are developing a modular system that will enable the onsite daily production and storage of hydrogen for any time use in electricity generation.

We refer to our technologyproduct as the HyperSolar H2GeneratorSunHydrogen Panel which is comprised of the following components:

Our business and commercialization plan calls for two generations of our panels or generators. The first generation being manufactured for demonstration utilizes readily available commercial solar cells, coated with a stabilizing polymer and catalysts, and inserted into our proprietary panels to efficiently and safely split water into hydrogen and oxygen to produce very pure and green hydrogen that can be piped off the panel, pressurized, and stored for use in a fuel cell to power anything electric.

The second generation of our panels will feature a nanoparticle-based technology where billions of autonomous solar cells are electrodeposited onto porous alumina sheets and manufactured in a roll to roll process and inserted into our proprietary panels. For this generation, we have received multiple patents and we estimate that it will produce hydrogen for less than $4 per kilogram before pressurization.

Our team at the University of Iowa led by our CTO Dr. Joun Lee, has reachreached a milestone of well over 1000 consecutive hours of continuous hydrogen production utilizing completely immersed solar cells with no external biases achieving simulated production equal to one year. We believe this to be a record for completely immersed cells. Now ready to take our technology out of the lab, we are working with several vendors to commercialize and manufacturer our first generation of renewable hydrogen panels that use sunlight and water to generate hydrogen.

We anticipate that the HyperSolar H2GeneratorSunHydrogen Panel will be a self-contained renewable hydrogen production system that requires only sunlight and any source of water.  As a result, it can be installed almost anywhere to produce hydrogen fuel at or near the point of distribution, for local use. We believe this model of hydrogen production addresses one of the biggest challenges of using clean hydrogen fuel on a large scale which is the transportation of hydrogen.

Each stage of the HyperSolar H2GeneratorSunHydrogen Panel can be scaled independently according to the hydrogen demands and length of storage required for a specific application. A small-scale system can be used to produce continuous renewable electricity for a small house, or a large scale system can be used to produce hydrogen to power a community.

Pilot Plant ConstructionSunHydrogen Panel Manufacturing

We are currently working towards buildingproducing 100 demonstration SunHydrogen Panels, that will be used to display our Gen 1 technology in a pilot plant adjacentnumber of venues throughout the United States and internationally. We anticipate that these demonstration panels will broaden national and global awareness of our new, green hydrogen generating technology. With the resulting increased interest, potential customers of our technology will be able to a large company distribution or fulfillment center so they can powerobserve the panels’ operation first hand, and determine potential uses in their fuel cell forklifts and materials handling equipment with completely renewable hydrogen. This will ultimately replace the need to transport steam reformed hydrogen where the production process emits tons of harmful emissions and must be transported.  Our goal is to have this pilot plant completed in 2020.

Intellectual Property

On November 15,14, 2011, we filed a provisional patent application with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect the intellectual property rights for “Photoelectrochemically Active Heterostructures, methods for their manufacture, and methods and systems for producing desired products.” On March 14, 2017, the part of the patent covering the structural design of Photoelectrochemically Active Heterostructures (PAH) was granted as the United States Patent No. 9,593,053B1. On April 3, 2018, the part of the patent covering the method for manufacturing PAH was granted as United States Patent No. 9,593,053B2. The patent protects the Company’s proprietary design and manufacturing method of a self-contained solar-to-hydrogen device made up of millions of solar-powered water-splitting nanoparticles, per square centimeter. These nanoparticles are coated with a separate patent-pending protective coating that prevents corrosion during extended periods of hydrogen production. The aim of these nanoparticles is high conversion efficiency and low cost.

An important aspect of the patented technology is the integrated structures of high-density arrays of nano-sized solar cells as part of hydrogen production nanoparticles. The technology enables manufacturing of ultra-thin sheets for solar-to-hydrogen production, requiring substantially less material as compared to conventional solar cells used in rooftop power applications.  

In March of 2015, we jointly filed a full utility patent application with UCSB for the “Multi-junction artificial photosynthetic cell with enhanced photovoltages ..photovoltages.” The patent covers our semiconductor designs to enhance the photovoltages of the nano-sized solar cells in the PAH structures. The semiconductor designs stacking multiple junctions inside the PAH structures would be an efficient and economic solution for the photovoltaic and the photoelectrochemical industries. This patent was granted in Australia in JuneApril of 2018, China and Europe in March of 2019, and in the U.S. in October of 2018. We also received the Chinese patent certificate in March 2019.

On December 21, 2016, we filed jointly with the University of Iowa a patent for “Integrated Membrane Solar Fuel Production Assembly” to protect the intellectual property for our generator housing system that safely separates oxygen and hydrogen in the water-splitting process without sacrificing efficiency. This device houses the water, the solar particles/cells and is designed with inlets and outlets for water and gases. Utilizing a special membrane for separating the oxygen side from the hydrogen side, proton transport is increased which is the key to safely increasing solar-to-hydrogen efficiency. In DecemberSeptember of 2017, we filed the utility patent for this important invention and prosecution is ongoing.

Strategic Partners

Effective JuneSeptember 1, 2019,2020, we entered into a research agreement with the University of Iowa. As consideration under the research agreement, the University of Iowa will receive a maximum of $144,747$299,966 from the Company. The research agreement may be terminated by either party upon 60 days prior written notice or by either party upon notice of a material breach or default which is not cured within 90 days of receipt of written notice of such breach. This term of the research agreement runs through MayAugust 31, 2020,2021 but may be extended upon mutual agreement of the parties.

Competition

Currently, most hydrogen is produced by steam reforming of natural gas or methane. This production technology dominates due to easy availability and low prices of natural gas. Partial oxidation of petroleum oil is second in production capacity after steam reforming of natural gas. The third largest production technology in terms of production capacity is steam gasification of coal. The current industry is heavily dominated by large players such as Air Products and Chemicals Inc. and Air Liquide.

Green or Renewable hydrogen can be produced through electrolyzers if they are powered by solar or wind. There has been an emergence of these companies in the past few years. ITM Power in England and Proton Onsite in Norway are two of the largest companies in this industry. If not powered by solar panels or wind power, they require external electricity most likely created by coal, gas, or oil. We believe that our process when fully developed will offer a competitive advantage as it is completely green and renewable and utilizes no external power other than the sun.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS AND INDUSTRYRisks related to our business and industry

OUR LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY DOES NOT AFFORD INVESTORS A SUFFICIENT HISTORY ON WHICH TO BASE AN INVESTMENT DECISION.Our limited operating history does not afford investors a sufficient history on which to base an investment decision.

We were formed in February 2009 and are currently developing a new technology that has not yet gained market acceptance. There can be no assurance that at this time we will operate profitably or that we will have adequate working capital to meet our obligations as they become due.

Investors must consider the risks and difficulties frequently encountered by early stage companies, particularly in rapidly evolving markets. Such risks include the following:

We cannot be certain that our business strategy will be successful or that we will successfully address these risks. In the event that we do not successfully address these risks, our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected and we may have to curtail our business.

WE HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES AND HAVE NEVER REALIZED REVENUES TO DATE. WE EXPECT TO CONTINUE TO INCUR LOSSES AND NO ASSURANCE CAN BE GIVEN THAT WE WILL REALIZE REVENUES. ACCORDINGLY, WE MAY NEVER ACHIEVE AND SUSTAIN PROFITABILITY.We have a history of losses and have never realized revenues to date. We expect to continue to incur losses and no assurance can be given that we will realize revenues. Accordingly, we may never achieve and sustain profitability.

As of June 30, 2019,2020, we have incurred an aggregate net loss, and had an accumulated deficit, of $(18,021,177).$75,550,515. For the yearsyear ended June 30, 2019 and 2018,2020 we incurred a net income of $3,978,337 and net loss of $(10,199,397), respectively. The net income (loss) for the years ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, included non-cash income of $5,806,888 and non-cash loss of ($9,448,570), respectively, associated with the Company’s derivative instruments.$57,529,338. We expect to continue to incur net losses until we are able to realize revenues to fund our continuing operations. We may fail to achieve any or significant revenues from sales or achieve or sustain profitability. Accordingly, there can be no assurance of when, if ever, we will be profitable or be able to maintain profitability.

We have historically raised funds through various capital raising transactions. WewillWe will require additional funds in the future to fund our business plans, either through additional equity or debt financings or collaborative agreements or from other sources. We have no commitments to obtain such additional financing, and we may not be able to obtain any such additional financing on terms favorable to us, or at all. In the event we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may be unable to implement our business plan. Even with such financing, we have a history of operating losses and there can be no assurance that we will ever become profitable.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO MANAGE OUR GROWTH OR IMPLEMENT OUR EXPANSION STRATEGY.We may be unable to manage our growth or implement our expansion strategy.

We may not be able to develop our product or implement the other features of our business strategy at the rate or to the extent presently planned. Our projected growth will place a significant strain on our administrative, operational and financial resources. If we are unable to successfully manage our future growth, establish and continue to upgrade our operating and financial control systems, recruit and hire necessary personnel or effectively manage unexpected expansion difficulties, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY DEVELOP AND COMMERCIALIZE OUR TECHNOLOGIES WHICH WOULD RESULT IN CONTINUED LOSSES AND MAY REQUIRE US TO CURTAIL OR CEASE OPERATIONS.We may not be able to successfully develop and commercialize our technologies which would result in continued losses and may require us to curtail or cease operations.

In May of 2012, we completed a lab scale prototype of our technology. This prototype demonstrates hydrogen production from small scale solar devices coated with our unique, low-cost polymer coating, and submerged in waste water from a pulp and paper mill. However, we have not completed a large scalelarge-scale commercial prototype of our technology and are uncertain at this time when completion of a commercial scale prototype will occur. Although, the lab scale prototype demonstrates the viability of our technology, there can be no assurance that we will be able to commercialize our technology.

OUR REVENUES ARE DEPENDENT UPON ACCEPTANCE OF OUR PRODUCTS BY THE MARKET; THE FAILURE OF WHICH WOULD CAUSE US TO CURTAIL OR CEASE OPERATIONS.

Our revenues will be dependent upon acceptance of our products by the market; the failure of which would cause us to curtail or cease operations.

We believe that virtually all of our revenues will come from the sale or license of our products. As a result, we will continue to incur substantial operating losses until such time as we are able to develop our product and generate revenues from the sale or license of our products. There can be no assurance that businesses and customers will adopt our technology and products, or that businesses and prospective customers will agree to pay for or license our products. Our technology and product, when fully developed, may not gain market acceptance due to various factors such as not enough cost savings between our method of producing hydrogen and other more conventional methods. In the event that we are not able to significantly increase the number of customers that purchase or license our products, or if we are unable to charge the necessary prices or license fees, our financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected.

WE FACE INTENSE COMPETITION, AND MANY OF OUR COMPETITORS HAVE SUBSTANTIALLY GREATER RESOURCES THAN WE DO.We face intense competition, and many of our competitors have substantially greater resources than we do.

We operate in a competitive environment that is characterized by price fluctuation and technological change. We will compete with major international and domestic companies. Some of our current and future potential competitors may have greater market recognition and customer bases, longer operating histories and substantially greater financial, technical, marketing, distribution, purchasing, manufacturing, personnel and other resources than we do. In addition, competitors may be developing similar technologies with a cost similar to, or lower than, our projected costs. As a result, they may be able to respond more quickly to changing customer demands or to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sales of solar and solar-related products than we can.

Our business plan relies on sales of our products based on either a demand for truly renewable clean hydrogen or economically produced clean hydrogen. If we fail to compete successfully, our business would suffer and we may lose or be unable to gain market share. Neither the demand for our product nor our ability to manufacture have yet been proven.

BECAUSE OUR INDUSTRY IS HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AND HAS LOW BARRIERS TO ENTRY, WE MAY LOSE MARKET SHARE TO LARGER COMPANIES THAT ARE BETTER EQUIPPED TO WEATHER A DETERIORATION IN MARKET CONDITIONS DUE TO INCREASED COMPETITION.Because our industry is highly competitive and has low barriers to entry, we may lose market share to larger companies that are better equipped to weather a deterioration in market conditions due to increased competition.

Our industry is highly competitive and fragmented, subject to rapid change and has low barriers to entry. We may, in the future, compete for potential customers with solar and heating companies and other providers of solar power equipment or electric power. Some of these competitors may have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources and greater name recognition than we have.

We believe that our ability to compete depends in part on a number of factors outside of our control, including:

Competition in the solar power services industry may increase in the future, partly due to low barriers to entry, as well as from other alternative energy resources now in existence or developed in the future. Increased competition could result in price reductions, reduced margins or loss of market share and greater competition for qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors. If we are unable to compete effectively, or if competition results in a deterioration of market conditions, our business and results of operations would be adversely affected.

OUR BUSINESS DEPENDS ON PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY THAT WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PROTECT AND MAY INFRINGE ON THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF OTHERS.Our business depends on proprietary technology that we may not be able to protect and may infringe on the intellectual property rights of others.

Our success will depend, in part, on our technology’s commercial viability and on the strength of our intellectual property rights. We currently hold patents in the US, China and Australia, but still have several patents pending in multiple countries.  There is no guarantee the pending patents will be granted. In addition, any agreements we enter into with our employees, consultants, advisors, customers and strategic partners will contain restrictions on the disclosure and use of trade secrets, inventions and confidential information relating to our technology may not provide meaningful protection in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure.

Third parties may assert that our technology, or the products we, our customers or partners commercialize using our technology, infringes upon their proprietary rights. We have yet to complete an infringement analysis and, even if such an analysis were available at the current time, it is virtually impossible for us to be certain that no infringement exists, particularly in our case where our products have not yet been fully developed.

We may need to acquire licenses from third parties in order to avoid infringement. Any required license may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.

We could incur substantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us for alleged infringement of another party’s intellectual property rights as well as in enforcing our rights against others, and if we are found to infringe, the manufacture, sale and use of our or our customers’ or partners’ products could be enjoined. Any claims against us, with or without merit, would likely be time-consuming, requiring our management team to dedicate substantial time to addressing the issues presented. Furthermore, the parties bringing claims may have greater resources than we do.

WE DO NOT MAINTAIN THEFT OR CASUALTY INSURANCE AND ONLY MAINTAIN MODEST LIABILITY AND PROPERTY INSURANCE COVERAGE AND THEREFORE, WE COULD INCUR LOSSES AS A RESULT OF AN UNINSURED LOSS.We do not maintain theft or casualty insurance and only maintain modest liability and property insurance coverage and therefore, we could incur losses as a result of an uninsured loss.

We do not maintain theft, casualty insurance, or property insurance coverage. We cannot assure that we will not incur uninsured liabilities and losses as a result of the conduct of our business. Any such uninsured or insured loss or liability could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

IF WE LOSE KEY EMPLOYEES AND CONSULTANTS OR ARE UNABLE TO ATTRACT OR RETAIN QUALIFIED PERSONNEL, OUR BUSINESS COULD SUFFER.If we lose key employees and consultants or are unable to attract or retain qualified personnel, our business could suffer.

Our success is highly dependent on our ability to attract and retain qualified scientific, engineering and management personnel. We are highly dependent on our CEO, Timothy Young, and our development team at the University of Iowa.  The loss of this valuable resource could have a material adverse effect on our operations. Our only officer is employed on “at will” basis. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that they will remain associated with us. Our management’s efforts will be critical to us as we continue to develop our technology and as we attempt to transition from a development stage company to a company with commercialized products and services. If we were to lose Mr. Young or the services of the development team at the university or any other key employees or consultants, we may experience difficulties in competing effectively, developing our technology and implementing our business strategies.

THE LOSS OF STRATEGIC ALLIANCES USED IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR PRODUCTS AND TECHNOLOGY COULD IMPEDE OUR ABILITY TO COMPLETE OUR PRODUCT AND RESULT IN A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT CAUSING THE BUSINESS TO SUFFER.The loss of strategic alliances used in the development of our products and technology could impede our ability to complete our product and result in a material adverse effect causing the business to suffer.

We pursue strategic alliances with other companies in areas where collaboration can produce technological and industry advancement. We have entered into the sponsored research agreement with the University of Iowa which is set to terminate MayAugust 31, 2020.2021. If we are unable to extend the terms of the agreements, we could suffer delays in product development or other operational difficulties which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our independent public accounting firm in their report dated September 27, 201923, 2020 included an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt in our ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital becoming available. Going concern contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time. Our ability to continue as a going concern ultimately is dependent on our ability to generate a profit which is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, attain further operating efficiencies and, ultimately, to achieve profitable operations. As a result, our financial statements do not reflect any adjustment which would result from our failure to continue to operate as a going concern. Any such adjustment, if necessary, would materially affect the value of our assets.

RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCKAn occurrence of an uncontrollable event such as the covid-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations.

BECAUSE THERE IS A LIMITED MARKET IN OUR COMMON STOCK, STOCKHOLDERS MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY IN SELLING OUR COMMON STOCK AND OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE SUBJECT TO SIGNIFICANT PRICE SWINGS.The occurrence of an uncontrollable event such as the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in social distancing, travel bans and quarantine, and this has limited and may continue to limit access to our facilities by our management, support staff and professional advisors. These factors, in turn, may not only impact our operations, financial condition and development of our products but our overall ability to react timely to mitigate the impact of this event. Also, it may hamper our efforts to comply with our filing obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and our ability to raise capital on favorable terms, or at all.

Risks relating to our common stock

There is a very limited trading market for our common stock. Since trading commenced in May 26, 2010, there has been little activity in

Our common stock is not listed on any national securities exchange. Accordingly, investors may find it more difficult to buy and sell our shares than if our common stock andwas traded on some daysan exchange. Although our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink, it is an unorganized, inter-dealer, over-the-counter market which provides significantly less liquidity than the Nasdaq Capital Market or other national securities exchange. Further, there is nolimited trading in our common stock. Because of the limited market for our common stock, the purchase or sale of a relatively small number of sharesThese factors may have an exaggerated effectadverse impact on the markettrading and price forof our common stock. We cannot assure stockholders that they will be able to sell

Our common stock or, that if they are ablecould be subject to sell their shares, that they will be able to sell the shares in any significant quantity at the quoted price.

OUR COMMON STOCK COULD BE SUBJECT TO EXTREME VOLATILITY.extreme volatility.

The trading price of our common stock may be affected by a number of factors, including events described in the risk factors set forth in this report, as well as our operating results, financial condition and other events or factors. In addition to the uncertainties relating to future operating performance and the profitability of operations, factors such as variations in interim financial results or various, as yet unpredictable, factors, many of which are beyond our control, may have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock. In recent years, broad stock market indices, in general, and smaller capitalization companies, in particular, have experienced substantial price fluctuations. In a volatile market, we may experience wide fluctuations in the market price of our common stock and wide bid-ask spreads. These fluctuations may have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock. In addition, the securities market has, from time to time, experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are not related to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

THERE IS A LARGE NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED BUT UNISSUED SHARES OF CAPITAL STOCK AVAILABLE FOR ISSUANCE, WHICH MAY RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION TO EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS.There is a large number of authorized but unissued shares of capital stock available for issuance, which may result in substantial dilution to existing shareholders.

Our Certificatearticles of Incorporation authorizesauthorized the issuance of up to 3,000,000,0005,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001, of which 1,302,002,6292,156,132,155 shares of common stock and no shares of preferred stock are currently outstanding as of September 23, 2019.18, 2020. Our Board of Directors has the ability to authorize the issuance of an additional 1,697,997,3712,843,867,845 shares of common stock and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock without shareholder approval. Any such issuance will result in substantial dilution to existing shareholders. In addition, the availability of such a large number of capital stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company.

WE HAVE NEVER PAID COMMON STOCK DIVIDENDS AND HAVE NO PLANS TO PAY DIVIDENDS IN THE FUTURE, AS A RESULT OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE LESS VALUABLE BECAUSE A RETURN ON AN INVESTOR’S INVESTMENT WILL ONLY OCCUR IF OUR STOCK PRICE APPRECIATES.We have never paid common stock dividends and have no plans to pay dividends in the future, as a result our common stock may be less valuable because a return on an investor’s investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.

Holders of shares of our common stock are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared by our Board of Directors. To date, we have paid no cash dividends on our shares of common stock and we do not expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We intend to retain future earnings, if any, to provide funds for operations of our business. Therefore, any return investors in our common stock will be in the form of appreciation, if any, in the market value of our shares of common stock. There can be no assurance that shares of our common stock will appreciate in value or even maintain the price at which our stockholders have purchased their shares.

IF OUR COMMON STOCK REMAINS SUBJECT TO THE SEC’S PENNY STOCK RULES, BROKER-DEALERS MAY EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTY IN COMPLETING CUSTOMER TRANSACTIONS AND TRADING ACTIVITY IN OUR SECURITIES MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.Our common stock is subject to the SEC’s penny stock rules.

Unless our common stock is listed on a national securities exchange, including the Nasdaq Capital Market, or we have stockholders’ equity of $5,000,000 or less and our common stock has a market price per share of less than $5.00, transactions in our common stock will be subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules. If our common stock remains subject to the “penny stock” rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, broker-dealers may find it difficult to effectuate customer transactions and trading activity in our securities may be adversely affected.

In accordance with these rules, broker-dealers participating in transactions in low-priced securities must first deliver a risk disclosure document that describes the risks associated with such stocks, the broker-dealer’s duties in selling the stock, the customer’s rights and remedies and certain market and other information. Furthermore, the broker-dealer must make a suitability determination approving the customer for low-priced stock transactions based on the customer’s financial situation, investment experience and objectives. Broker-dealers must also disclose these restrictions in writing to the customer, obtain specific written consent from the customer, and provide monthly account statements to the customer. The effect of these restrictions will probably decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to make a market in our common stock, decrease liquidity of our common stock and increase transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common stock as compared to other securities. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market.

This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders, which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock. Our board of directors has the authority to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of our preferred stock without further stockholder approval. As a result, ifour board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders of preferred stock the right to our assets upon liquidation, or the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock. In addition, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock becomes subject toor that is convertible into our common stock, which could decrease the penny stock rules, the market pricerelative voting power of our securities may be depressed, and you may find it more difficult to sell our securities.

WE MAY NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL, AND THE SALE OF ADDITIONAL SHARES OR OTHER EQUITY OR CONVERTIBLE DEBT SECURITIES COULD RESULT IN ADDITIONAL DILUTION TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS.

If our resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to sell additional equitycommon stock or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. The sale of additional equity securities could result in additional dilution to our existing stockholders. The incurrence

Financing may not be available in amounts and on terms acceptable to us, or at all. In addition, the successful execution of our business plan requires significant cash resources, including cash for investments and acquisition. Changes in business conditions and future developments could also increase our cash requirements. To the extent we are unable to obtain external financing, we will not be able to execute our business plan effectively, if at all. To the extent thatneed additional capital is raised through the saleand personnel, we anticipate that we will need to issue additional shares of equitycommon stock or securities convertible debt securities, theor exercisable for shares of common stock, including convertible preferred stock, convertible notes, stock options or warrants.

Dividend Policy

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that restrict us from declaring dividends.

Overview

We are engaged in the developmentAt SunHydrogen, Inc., our goal is to replace most forms of innovative technologies that we believe will bringenergy on earth with clean renewable hydrogen to market at an economical price. The hydrogen will be used in fuel cells for transportation and materials handling equipment.hydrogen.

Our current focuspatented low-cost technology is intended to produce renewable hydrogen using sunlight and any source of water, including seawater and wastewater. Unlike non-renewable hydrocarbon fuels, such as oil, coal and natural gas, where carbon dioxide and other contaminants are released into the atmosphere when used, hydrogen fuel usage produces pure water as the only byproduct. By optimizing the science of water electrolysis forat the nano-level, our low-cost nanoparticles mimic photosynthesis to efficiently use sunlight to split water molecules into environmentally friendly renewable hydrogen. Using our low-cost method to produce renewable hydrogen, we intend to enable a world of distributed hydrogen production for renewable electricity and developmental workhydrogen fuel cell vehicles.

Our technology is being doneprimarily developed at the University of Iowa, through a sponsored research agreement. Over the past several years, our team has been focused on developing the technology to a point at which it can be commercialized. After years of dedication, we are now ready to move from the lab into commercial production with the first generation of our technology.

Our innovative technology is packaged into a self-contained hydrogen production panel that requires only sunlight and any source of water. Just like solar panels convert sunlight into electricity, our hydrogen panels will convert sunlight and water into hydrogen. As a result of this form factor, the panels can be installed almost anywhere to produce hydrogen fuel at or near the point of use. We believe that this distributed model of hydrogen production generators that can be licensed and sold.addresses one of the biggest challenges of the hydrogen economy, which is the prohibitive high infrastructure cost of transporting hydrogen to the points of use.

Results of Operations for the Year Ended June 30, 20192020 compared to the Year Ended June 30, 2018.2019.

Operating Expenses

For the year ended June 30, 20192020 operating expenses were $1,681,427 compared to $1,828,551 and $750,827 for the prior year ended June 30, 2018.2019. Operating expenses consistsconsist primarily of research and development expenses and general and administrative expenses incurred in connection with the operation of our business. The net increasedecrease of $1,077,724$147,124 in operating expenses consisted primarilywas a result of researcha decrease in general and development costsadministrative expense of $235,375, which consist of $261,919 in the amount of $283,163 togethernon-cash stock compensation expense, with an overall increase of $26,544 in other general and administrative expensesexpense and an increase in research and development cost of $794,561, which included non-cash stock compensation$86,820, and an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $707,059.$1,431.

Other Income/(Expenses)

Other income and (expenses) for the year ended June 30, 20192020 were $(55,847,911) compared to $5,806,888 and $(9,448,570) for the prior year ended June 30, 2018.2019. The net increase of $15,255,458$(61,654,799) in other income and (expenses) was the result of an increase inthe net gain on change in fair value of our derivative instruments of $15,863,339, net increase in interest expense of $500,307, which includes amortization of debt discount of $448,674, with an increase in fair value loss on conversion of debt of $107,574. The net increase in other income and (expenses) was due to the gain in change in derivative liability.

Net LossIncome (Loss)

For the year ended June 30, 2019,2020 our net income was $3,978,337 as compared to a net loss of $(10,199,397)was $(57,529,338), compared to net income of $3,978,337 for the prior year ended June 30, 2018.2019. The majority of the increase in net gainloss of $14,177,734$61,507,675, was related primarily to the net change in derivative estimates each year. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price, volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on managements’ estimates. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period, therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material. The Company has not generated any revenues.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are funds generated by operations, levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable and capital expenditures. 

As of June 30, 2019,2020, we had a working capital deficit of $4,829,162 as$60,459,862, compared to $11,741,054a working capital deficit of $4,829,162 as of June 30, 2018.2019. This decreaseincrease in working capital deficit of $6,911,892$55,630,700 was primarily due primarily to anthe increase in prepaid expenses,net change in derivative liability, cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, offset byaccrued interest on convertible notes, with a decrease in cash, non-cash derivative liability,prepaid expenses, and the issuance of additional convertible notes.

During the year ended June 30, 2020, we raised an aggregate of $856,500 in a private placement of convertible notes. During the prior year ended June 30, 2019, we raised an aggregate of $804,500 in an offeringa private placement of unsecured convertible notes. During the prior year ended June 30, 2018, we raised an aggregate of $745,000 through the sale of unsecured convertible notes. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise capital and future revenue generated from operations.

Cash flow used in operating activities was $695,784 for the year ended June 30, 2020, compared to $853,693 for the year ended June 30, 2019 and $708,831 for the prior year ended June 30, 2018.2019. The increasedecrease in cash used by operating activities was primarily due to an increasethe decrease in research and development cost.insurance expense. The Company has had no revenues.

Cash used in investing activities for the year ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $780 and 2018 was $13,059, and $18,976, respectively. The decrease in investing activities was as a result of a decrease in the purchase of intangible assets purchased during the current year ended June 30, 2019.year.

Cash provided by financing activities during the year ended June 30, 20192020 was $856,500 compared to $804,500 and $745,000 for the prior year ended June 30, 2018.2019. The increase in cash from financing activities was due to the increase in issuance of convertible notes through private placement offerings during the current period.

During the year ended June 30, 2019,2020, we did not generate any revenue but incurred net incomeloss of $3,978,337, which was primarily due to the non-cash gain associated with the debt financing of $7,695,278,$57,529,338 and used cash in the amount of $853,693$695,784 in our operations. As of June 30, 2019,2020, we had a working capital deficiency of $4,829,162$60,459,862 and a shareholders’ deficit of $6,511,283.$61,832,448. These factors, among others raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our independent auditors, Liggett & Webb P.A, in their report dated September 27, 2019,23, 2020, on our audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 20192020 expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability s to continue as a going concern and appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent on our ability to generate a profit which is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, advance our technology and, ultimately, to achieve profitable operations.

We have historically obtained funding from our shareholders, through private placement offerings of equity and debt securities. Management believes that it will be able to continue to raise funds through the sale of its securities to its existing shareholders and prospective new investors which will provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due, and will allow the Company to continue to develop its core business. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue raising the required capital for our operations and if available, on terms and conditions that are acceptable. If we are unable to obtain sufficient funds, we may be forced to curtail and/or cease the development of our technology.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements 

We do not have any off-balancesheetoff-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, result of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and fair value computation using the Black Scholes optionBinomial lattice valuation pricing model. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, such as the trading value of our common stock and estimated future undiscounted cash flows, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable.

Use of Estimates

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management utilizes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions relate to recording, useful lives and impairment of tangible and intangible assets, derivatives, accruals, income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, binomial model inputs and other factors. Management believes it has exercised reasonable judgment in deriving these estimates. Consequently, a change in conditions could affect these estimates.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value of financial instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of June 30, 2019,2020, the amounts reported for cash, accrued interest and other expenses, notes payables, and derivative liability approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Management adopted recently issued accounting pronouncements during the year ended June 30, 2019,2020, as disclosed in the Notes to the financial statements included in this report.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. 

Our management, with the participation of our CEO and our Acting CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our CEO and our Acting CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective to ensure  that information required to be disclosed is made known to management and others, as appropriate, to allow timely decision regarding required disclosure and that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and Acting CFO, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

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

We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

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 the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 20192020 based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.Commission (2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2019,2020, based on those criteria.

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.
