Note 1 - Nature of the Business

BoxScore Brands,American Battery Materials, Inc. (formerly U-VendBoxScore Brands, Inc.) (the “Company”) is a US based renewable energy company focused on the extraction, refinement and distribution of technical minerals.minerals in an environmentally responsible manner.

The Company formerly developed, marketed and distributed various self-serve electronic kiosks and mall/airport co-branded islands throughout North America. Due to the nationwide shutdown related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company spent a portion of 2020 restructuring and retiring certain corporate debt and obligations. The Company focusedobligations, while focusing on implementing a new operational direction.

Through the corporate reorganization and repositioning process, the Company found itself with the unique opportunity to expand its management team and acquire mining claims that historically reported high levels of Lithium and other tech minerals. The Company hired and affiliated itself with industry veterans that bring decades of experience, credibility and relationships.

On November 5, 2021, the Company acquired the rights to 102 Federal Mining Claims located in theLisbonthe Lisbon Valley of Utah.Utah for $100,000. The acquisition was driven by historical mineral data from seven (7) existing wells with brine aquifer access. The independent third-party Technical Report indicated that further investment and development in the claims were warranted.

The Company has been executing the necessary steps to prove the tech reports findings and has retained RESPEC Company LLC as its Geotech, Engineering and Resource Management partner to assist in the exploration of the Lisbon Valley brine extraction project. Leveraging their expertise, the company will focus on several initiatives, that include:

Advancement of geotech, engineering, geology and fieldwork to complete Technical Reports on the Lisbon Project.

Understanding Lisbon Valley brines, on and around owned leases.

Develop a well plan to re-enter, sample, and test the “Superior Well”, that has a historical lithium concentration of 730 ppm (parts per million).

Enter other prospective plugged and abandoned wells, taking brine samples and performing hydrological testing at each identified high potential zone to evaluate the properties of the clastic formation.

As information is advanced, prepare technical reports following the NI 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects, initially a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) and longer term, a Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS).

Test the collected brines for lithium, but also for previously identified high value elements such as cobalt, manganese, magnesium, and suites of metals in the alkaline earth metals, transition metals, and halogens group.

Based on the results of the Superior well, develop area resource estimates.

The Company has been moving forward with its strategy of employing advanced brine extractive technology methodologies and has been in talks with numerous extraction providers. Selective mineral extraction is clearly the most cost-effective and ESG friendly approach currently available. Technologies are being utilized that can extract the desired minerals and metals from the brine and then re-inject the brines back down into the aquafer. The prospective partners have been provided the analytical results from the technical reports, but will soon provide current results, analytical, Geotech modeling, aquifer modeling, recharge, flows, and depth.

The Lisbon Valley of Utah also provides many added benefits:

Historically rich industrial and natural resource extraction area.

A developed infrastructure including high voltage electrical, proximity to major roadways and rail spurs.

State and local agency support through the Utah Division of Oil, Gas and Mining and the Trust Land Administration (SITLA)

 

The Company will alsoalso look to expand its holdings in the Lisbon Valley area with the acquisition of additional mineral claims and joint venture opportunities.


Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are condensed and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair and non-misleading presentation of the financial statements have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 20222023 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.2023. The balance sheet as of December 31, 20212022 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 20212022 audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021,2022, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29,April 21, 2022.


AMERICAN BATTERY MATERIALS, INC.

(Formerly BoxScore Brands, Inc.)

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022

(Unaudited)

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Battery Materials, Inc. (formerly BoxScore Brands, Inc.) and the operations of its wholly ownedwholly-owned subsidiaries U-Vend America, Inc., U-Vend Canada, Inc. and U-Vend USA LLC. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and be based on events different from those assumptions. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; estimating, therefore, requires the exercise of judgment. Thus, accounting estimates change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, or as additional information is obtained.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Equipment has estimated useful lives between three and seven years. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount to the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If it is determined that an asset group is not recoverable, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds its fair value.

Mineral Rights and Properties

The Company capitalizes acquisition costs until the Company determines the economic viability of the property. Since the Company does not have proven and probable reserves as defined by Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regulation S-K 1300, exploration expenditures are expensed as incurred. The Company expenses mineral lease costs and repair and maintenance costs as incurred. The Company reviews the carrying value of our properties for impairment, including mineral rights, upon the occurrence of events or changes in circumstances that indicate the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company currently owns the rights to 102 Federal Mining Claims located in the Lisbon Valley of Utah that it purchased on November 5, 2021 for $100,000. No impairment or capitalizable costs related to the mineral claims were noted during the three months ended March 31, 2023 or 2022.

Earnings Per Share

The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings per share reflect the actual weighted average of shares issued and outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed including the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential shares had been issued. In a loss period, the calculation for basic and diluted earnings per share is considered to be the same, as the impact of potential common shares is anti-dilutive.

As of March 31, 20222023 and December 31, 2021,2022, there were approximately 16192 million and 16496 million shares potentially issuable under convertible debt agreements, options, warrants and warrantspreferred stock that could dilute basic earnings per share if converted that were included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share forexcluded from the three months ended March 31, 2022. These if-converted shares were excluded from the other periods presented2023 and 2022 because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive due to the Company’s losses during those periods.net losses.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. Certain warrants issued by the Company contain terms that result in the warrants being classified as derivative liabilities for accounting purposes. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair market value and then is revalued at each reporting date, with changes in fair value reported in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and equivalents, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. The Company considers active markets as those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. This category includes those derivative instruments that the Company values using observable market data. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the term of the derivative instruments, can be derived from observable data, or supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.

Level 3: Measured based on prices or valuation models that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and less observable from objective sources (i.e. supported by little or no market activity). Level 3 instruments include derivative warrant instruments. The Company does not have sufficient corroborating evidence to support classifying these assets and liabilities as Level 1 or Level 2.

Certain of the Company’s debt and equity instruments include embedded derivatives that require bifurcation from the host contract under the provisions of ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging.”Stock-Based Compensation

The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy our financial assets and liabilities that were accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The debt and equity instruments each carry certain reset provisions that may compound derivative liabilities upon the issuance of new instruments. Current reset provision may result in conversions of these instruments to be reduced to as allow as $0.0038 per share, further expanding the derivative liability of the Company.


Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” which requires all stock-based awards granted to employees, directors, and non-employees to be measured at grant date fair value of the equity instrument issued, and recognized as expense. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally equivalent to the vesting period. The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The measurement date for the non-forfeitable awards to nonemployees that vest immediately is the date the award is issued.

Revenue Recognition

Gain on Liabilities Settlement

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 creditors forgave aggregate amount of $15,252 associated with accrued expenses. In addition, the Company recorded a gain on capital lease settlement of $16,074, resulting in total gain on settlement of liabilities of $31,326. No gains or losses resulting from liability settlement were recognized during the three month ended March 31, 2022.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of control for promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In applying the revenue recognition principles, an entity is required to identify the contract(s) with a customer, identify the performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied (i.e., either over time or at a point in time). ASC 606 further requires that companies disclose sufficient information to enable readers of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

The Company recognized $0 revenue during the three months ended March 31, 20222023 and 2021.2022.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On August 5, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—DebtDebt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—ContractsHedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity,which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. This ASU is effective for public business entities, excluding smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and for all other entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted for all entities no earlier than for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the effects this ASU will have on its financial statements.

The Company has examined all other recent accounting pronouncements and determined that they will not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Note 3 - Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Company had net loss of $103,774$388,646 during the three months ended March 31, 2022,2023, has accumulated losses totaling $16,471,763,$18,243,483, and has a working capital deficit of $8,246,720 at$1,600,058 as of March 31, 2022.2023. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Until the Company can generate significant cash from operations, its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional financing. The Company hopes to raise additional financing, potentially through the sale of debt or equity instruments, or a combination, to fund its operations for the next 12 months and allow the Company to continue the development of its business plans and satisfy its obligations on a timely basis. Should additional financing not be available, the Company will have to negotiate with its lenders to extend the repayment dates of its indebtedness. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully restructure its debt obligations in the event it fails to obtain additional financing. These conditions have raised substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements, which has not been alleviated.

Inflation

Inflation

Although the Company’s operations are influenced by general economic conditions, it does not believe that inflation had a material effect on its results of operations during the last two years as it is generally able to pass the increase in material and labor costs to its customers or absorb them as it improves the efficiency of its operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 20222023 describe the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates and be based on events different from those assumptions. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; estimating therefore, requires the exercise of judgment. Thus, accounting estimates change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired or as additional information is obtained. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term debt, the carrying amounts approximate their fair values due to their short maturities. ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. The Company considers active markets as those in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. This category includes those derivative instruments that the Company values using observable market data. Substantially all of these inputs are observable in the marketplace throughout the term of the derivative instruments, can be derived from observable data, or supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.

Level 3: Measured based on prices or valuation models that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and less observable from objective sources (i.e. supported by little or no market activity). Level 3 instruments include derivative warrant instruments. The Company does not have sufficient corroborating evidence to support classifying these assets and liabilities as Level 1 or Level 2.


Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. Certain warrants issued by the Company contain terms that result in the warrants being classified as derivative liabilities for accounting purposes. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair market value and then is revalued at each reporting date, with changes in fair value reported in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:Procedures

AsDavid Graber, who serves as our Co-Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, management performed, with the participation ofBoard, and Sebastian Lux, who serves as our principal executive officerCo-Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and principal financial officer, an evaluation ofPrincipal Financial Officer (collectively referred to herein as “Senior Management”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our disclosureMarch 31, 2023. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports we filethat it files or submitsubmits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s forms,rules and forms. Senior Management recognizes that such information is accumulatedany controls and communicated to ourprocedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management including our principal executive officernecessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.procedures. Based on theits evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officerSenior Management concluded that, as of March 31, 2022,2023 that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.


Aeffective because of material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies,weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that adescribed below in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Notwithstanding the identified material misstatement of our annual or interimweaknesses, Senior Management believes the consolidated financial statements willincluded in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly represent in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Senior Management, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. An evaluation was performed of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The evaluation was based on the framework in 2013 Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not be preventedprevent or detecteddetect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Based on a timely basis. We identifiedits evaluation under the following material weaknessescriteria set forth in 2013 Internal Control — Integrated Framework, Senior Management concluded that, as of March 31, 2022:2023 our internal control over financial reporting was not effective because of the identification of material weaknesses described as follows:

Insufficient personnel resources withinWe did not have controls designed to validate the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the determination of accounting functiontransactions. Accordingly, we believe we have a material weakness because there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to segregate the duties overinterim or annual consolidated financial transaction processing and reporting;statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

InabilityWe do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which is applicable to apply GAAP consistently for routine transactions,us. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and to unique transactionsprocedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and contracts;procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.


InabilityWe do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to evaluateour size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the adoptionextent possible, the initiation of new reporting standards;transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

A lackWe have an inadequate number of consistent management involvement duringpersonnel with requisite expertise in the financial statement preparation process.key functional areas of finance and accounting.

To remediate our internal control weaknesses, management intends to implement the following measures, as finances allow:

Adding sufficient accounting personnel or outside consultants to properly segregate dutiesWe do not have a functioning audit committee, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and to effect a timely, accurate preparationmonitoring of the financial statements;required internal controls and procedures.

Adhering to internal procedures for timely submission of supporting documents to outside consultants;

Developing and maintaining adequate written accounting policies and procedures, once we hire additional accounting personnel or outside consultants.

The additional hiring is contingent upon our efforts to obtain additional funding and the results of our operations. Management expects to secure funds in the coming fiscal year but provides no assurances that it will be able to do so.

(b) ChangesRemediation Plan for Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:Reporting

Senior Management of the Company is committed to improving its internal controls and will (i) continue to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist the Company with accounting and finance responsibilities; (ii) increase the frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel; (iii) seek to add a full-time Chief Financial Officer to replace Mr. Lux when the Company has adequate financial resources; and, (iv) is currently considering appointing audit committee members in the future.

Senior Management has discussed the material weaknesses noted above with our independent registered public accounting firm. Due to the nature of these material weaknesses, it is reasonably possible that misstatements which could be material to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected during our financial close and reporting process.

This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’sour internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 20222023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’sour internal control over financial reporting. However, our managementSenior Management is currently seeking to improve our controls and procedures in an effort to remediate the deficiencydeficiencies described above.
