Note 1: Source of Business and Basis of Presentation
Ocean
Thermal Energy Corporation (“Ocean Thermal,” the
“Company,” “we,” and “us”) is
currently in the businesses of:
●
OTEC and SWAC
- Designing Ocean Thermal
Energy Conversion (“OTEC”) power plants and Seawater
Air Conditioning (“SWAC”) plants for large commercial
properties, utilities and municipalities. These technologies
provide practical solutions to mankind’s three oldest and
most fundamental needs: clean drinking water, plentiful food, and
sustainable, affordable energy without the use of fossil fuels.
OTEC is a clean technology that continuously extracts energy from
the temperature difference between warm surface ocean water and
cold deep seawater. In addition to producing electricity, some of
the seawater running through an OTEC plant can be efficiently
desalinated using the power generated by the OTEC technology,
producing thousands of cubic meters of fresh water every day for
the communities served by its plants for use in agriculture and
human consumption. This cold deep nutrient-rich water can also be
used to cool buildings (SWAC) and for fish farming/ aquaculture. In
short, it’s a technology with many benefits, and its
versatility makes OTEC unique.
●
EcoVillages
- Developing and commercializing our EcoVillages,
as well as working to develop or acquire new complementary assets.
EcoVillages are communities whose goal is to become more socially,
economically and ecologically sustainable. EcoVillages are
communities whose inhabitants seek to live according to ecological
principles, causing as little impact on the environment as
possible. We expect that our EcoVillage communities will range from
a population of 50 to 150 individuals, although some may be
smaller. We may also form larger EcoVillages of up to 2,000
individuals that will be formed as networks of smaller
sub-communities. We expect that our EcoVillages will grow by the
addition of individuals, families, or other small
groups.
We expect to use OTE’s technology in the development of our
EcoVillages, which we should add significant value to our existing
line of business.
On May
25, 2017, the Company received approval from the Financial Industry
Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) to change the trading
symbol for the Company’s common stock to “CPWR”
from “TDYS.” The Company’s common stock began
formally trading under the symbol “CPWR” on June 21,
2017.
For
accounting purposes, this transaction was accounted for as a
reverse merger and has been treated as a recapitalization of
Tetridyn Solutions, Inc. with Ocean Thermal Energy Corporation. as
the accounting acquirer. The historical financial statements of the
accounting acquirer became the financial statements of the Company.
The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in
connection with the transaction. The 110,273,767 shares issued to
the shareholder of OTE in conjunction with the share exchange
transaction has been presented as outstanding for all periods. The
historical financial statements include the operations of the
accounting acquirer for all periods presented and the accounting
acquiree for the period from May 9, 2017 through December 31, 2017.
The Company’s accounting year end is December 31, which was
the year end of Ocean Thermal Energy Corporation.
The
condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In
the opinion of management, our financial statements reflect all
adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature necessary for
presentation of financial statements for interim periods in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q in Article 10 of SEC
Regulation S-X. The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of our financial statements, and the reported amounts of
revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
We
condensed or omitted certain information and footnote disclosures
normally included in our annual audited financial statements, which
we prepared in accordance with GAAP. The operating results for the
three months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of
the results to be expected for the year. Our interim financial
statements should be read in conjunction with our Audit Report and
the 10-K filing on April 2, 2018.
Note
2: Going Concern
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared on the assumption that we will continue as a
going concern. As reflected in the accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements, we had a net loss of $951,810
and used $834,890 of cash in operating activities for the three
months ended March 31, 2018. We had a working capital deficiency of
$11,196,385 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $11,397,037 as
of March 31, 2018. These factors raise substantial doubt about our
ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as
a going concern is dependent on our ability to increase sales and
obtain external funding for our project development. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.
Note 3: Income Taxes
On December 22, 2017, President Trump signed into law the Tax Cuts
and Jobs Act (the “TCJA”) that significantly reforms
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal
Revenue Code”). The TCJA, among other things, contains
significant changes to corporate taxation, including reduction of
the corporate tax rate from a top marginal rate of 35% to a flat
rate of 21%, effective as of January 1, 2018; limitation of the tax
deduction for interest expense; limitation of the deduction for net
operating losses to 80% of current year taxable income and
elimination of net operating loss carrybacks, in each case, for
losses arising in taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017
(though any such tax losses may be carried forward indefinitely);
modifying or repealing many business deductions and credits,
including reducing the business tax credit for certain clinical
testing expenses incurred in the testing of certain drugs for rare
diseases or conditions generally referred to as “orphan
drugs”; and repeal of the federal Alternative Minimum Tax
(“AMT”).
The staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 118 to address the application of GAAP in
situations when a registrant does not have the necessary
information available, prepared or analyzed (including
computations) in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for
certain income tax effects of the TCJA. In connection with the
initial analysis of the impact of the TCJA, the Company remeasured
its deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which
they are expected to reverse in the future, which is generally 21%.
The remeasurement of the Company's deferred tax assets and
liabilities was offset by a change in the valuation
allowance.
The Company is still in the process of analyzing the impact to the
Company of the TCJA. Where the Company has been able to make
reasonable estimates of the effects related to which its analysis
is not yet complete, the Company has recorded provisional amounts.
The ultimate impact to the Company’s consolidated financial
statements of the TCJA may differ from the provisional amounts due
to, among other things, additional analysis, changes in
interpretations and assumptions the Company has made, additional
regulatory guidance that may be issued, and actions the Company may
take as a result of the TCJA. The accounting is expected to be
complete when the Company’s 2017 U.S. corporate income tax
return is filed in 2018.
No
income tax expense was recognized for the three-month periods ended
March 31, 2018 and 2017, due to net losses being incurred in these
periods. We are subject to audit by the Internal Revenue Service,
various states, and foreign jurisdictions for the prior three
years. There has not been a change in our unrecognized tax
positions since December 31, 2017, and we do not believe there
will be any material changes in our unrecognized tax positions over
the next 12 months. Our policy is to recognize interest and
penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component
of income tax expense. We do not have any accrued interest or
penalties associated with any unrecognized tax benefits, and no
interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits was
recognized during the three months ended March 31,
2018.
The
Company’s ability to use its NOL carryforwards may be
substantially limited due to ownership change limitations that may
have occurred or that could occur in the future, as required by
Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
Code), as well as similar state provisions. These ownership changes
may limit the amount of NOL that can be utilized annually to offset
future taxable income and tax, respectively. In general, an
“ownership change” as defined by Section 382 of the
Code results from a transaction or series of transactions over a
three-year period resulting in an ownership change of more than
50.0% of the outstanding stock of a company by certain stockholders
or public groups.
The
Company has not completed a study to assess whether an ownership
change has occurred or whether there have been multiple ownership
changes since the Company became a “loss corporation”
under the definition of Section 382. If the Company has experienced
an ownership change, utilization of the NOL carryforwards would be
subject to an annual limitation under Section 382 of the Code,
which is determined by first multiplying the value of the
Company’s stock at the time of the ownership change by the
applicable long-term, tax-exempt rate, and then could be subject to
additional adjustments, as required. Any limitation may result in
expiration of a portion of the NOL carryforwards before
utilization. Further, until a study is completed and any limitation
known, no positions related to limitations are being considered as
an uncertain tax position or disclosed as an unrecognized tax
benefit. Any carryforwards that expire prior to utilization as a
result of such limitations will be removed from deferred tax assets
with a corresponding reduction of the valuation allowance. Due to
the existence of the valuation allowance, it is not expected that
any possible limitation will have an impact on the results of
operations or financial position of the Company.
Note
4: Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC
Topic 820, “
Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures
,” defines fair value,
establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States, and enhances
disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 describes a fair
value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first
two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may
be used to measure fair value, which are the
following:
●
Level
1–Pricing inputs are quoted prices available in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting
date.
●
Level
2–Pricing inputs are quoted for similar assets or inputs that
are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially
the full term through corroboration with observable market data.
Level 2 includes assets or liabilities valued at quoted prices
adjusted for legal or contractual restrictions specific to these
investments.
●
Level
3–Pricing inputs are unobservable for the assets or
liabilities; that is, the inputs reflect the reporting
entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market
participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability.
Management
believes the carrying amounts of the short-term financial
instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expense
and other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, notes
payable, deferred compensation, and other liabilities reflected in
the accompanying balance sheets approximate fair value at March 31,
2018 and December 31, 2017, due to the relatively short-term nature
of these instruments.
Note 5: Net Loss per Common Share
The
basic loss per share is calculated by dividing our net loss
available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of
common shares during the period. The diluted loss per share is
calculated by dividing our net loss by the diluted weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted
weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted
number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or
equity. We have 220,500 and 303,320 shares issuable upon the
exercise of warrants and options and 7,567,438 and 205,667 shares
issuable upon the conversion of the green energy bonds and
convertible notes that were not included in the computation of
dilutive loss per share because their inclusion is antidilutive for
the interim periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017,
respectively
Note 6: Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We have
reviewed all recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting
standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on our
consolidated results of operations, financial position, and cash
flows. Based on that review, we believe that none of these
pronouncements will have a significant effect on current or future
earnings or operations.
Note 7: Business Segments
We
conduct operations in various foreign jurisdictions that use our
technology. Our segments are based on the location of their
operations. The U.S. territories segment consists of operations in
the U.S. Virgin Islands and Guam; the Bahamas segment consists of
operations specific to the Bahamas; and the other segment currently
consists of operations in the Cayman Islands. Direct revenues and
costs, depreciation, depletion, and amortization costs, general and
administrative costs (“G&A”), and other income
directly associated with their respective segments are detailed
within the following discussion. Identifiable net property and
equipment are reported by business segment for management reporting
and reportable business segment disclosure purposes. Current
assets, other assets, current liabilities, and long-term debt are
not allocated to business segments for management reporting or
business segment disclosure purposes.
Reportable
business segment information for the years ended March 31, 2018,
and March 31, 2017, is as follows:

For the
period ended March 31, 2018, the U.S. territories are comprised of
the U.S. Virgin Islands project (approx. $750,000) and the Guam
project (approx. $165,000). Other territories are comprised of the
Cayman Islands project; however
during
the year ended December 31, 2017, $48,998 of Cayman Islands assets
under construction was considered to be impaired due to the
uncertainty of the project and were written off
. There were
no additions or write offs to assets under construction in the
first quarter of 2018.

During
2012, we issued a note payable for $1,000,000 and three-year
warrants to purchase 3,295,761 shares of common stock with an
exercise price of $0.50 per share. The note had an interest rate of
10% per annum, was secured by a first lien in all of our assets and
was due on February 3, 2015. We determined the warrants had a fair
value of $378,500 based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
The fair value was recorded as a discount on the note payable and
was being amortized over the life of the note. We repriced the
warrants during 2013 and took an additional charge to earnings of
$1,269,380 related to the repricing. The warrants were exercised
upon the repricing. On March 6, 2018, the note holder agreed to
amend the note to extend the due date of the note to December 31,
2018. As of March 31, 2018, the outstanding balance was $1,000,000,
plus accrued interest of $560,559.
During
2013, we issued Series B units. Each unit is comprised of a note
agreement, a $50,000 promissory note that matures on September 30,
2023, and bears interest at 10% per annum payable annually in
arrears, a security agreement, and a warrant to purchase 10,000
shares of common stock at an exercise price to be determined
pursuant to a specified formula. During 2013, we issued $525,000 of
10% promissory notes and warrants to purchase 105,000 shares of
common stock. The warrants have an expiration date of September 30,
2023. We determined the warrants had a fair value of $60,068 based
on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. As part of our agreement
with the Memphis Investors, the Board repriced the warrants to
$0.00 and exercised the warrants and issued shares of common stock.
On December 31, 2016, the accrued interest was $168,934. During
2015, one of the original note holders transferred its ownership of
the note in the amount of $50,000 to Jeremy P. Feakins &
Associates LLC through the JPF Venture Fund 1, LP. On August 15,
2017, loans in the amount of $316,666 and accrued interest of
$120,898 were converted to 437,564 shares at $1.00 per share, which
was ratified by the Board of Directors. The shares were recorded at
fair value of $1,165,892. The Company recorded a loss on settlement
of debt of $728,328 on conversion date. As of March 31, 2018,, the
loan balance was $158,334 and the accrued interest was
$72,852.
During
the third quarter of 2017, the Company commenced a $2,000,000
convertible promissory note private placement offering. The terms
of the note are as follows: (i) interest is payable at 6% per
annum; (ii) the note is payable two years after purchase;
(iii) and all principal and interest on each Note shall
automatically convert on the Conversion Maturity Date into shares
of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $4.00
per share, as long as the closing share price of the
Company’s common stock on the trading day immediately
preceding the Conversion Maturity Date is at least $4.00, as
adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassification, and
the like. If the price of the Company’s shares on such date
is less than $4.00 per share, the Note (principal and interest)
will be repaid in full. As of March 31, 2018, the outstanding
balance for all four loans was $80,000, plus accrued interest of
$3,370.
During
2013, we paid cash of $10,000 and issued a note payable for
$290,000 in connection with the reverse merger transaction. We
repurchased and retired 7,546,464 shares of common stock
simultaneously with the closing of the merger with Broad Band
Network Associates. The note is unsecured and due the earlier of
December 31, 2015, or upon our receiving $50,000 of proceeds from
the exercise of the Class A warrants, $50,000 from the exercise of
the Class B warrants, $60,000 from the exercise of the Class C
warrants, $60,000 from the exercise of Class D warrants, and
$70,000 from the exercise of the Class E warrants. During 2014, we
paid $100,000 and during 2015, we paid $60,000, leaving a balance
of $130,000. Accrued interest totaled $42,913 at March 31, 2018. We
have determined that no further payment of principal or interest on
this note should be made because the note holder failed to perform
his underlying obligations giving rise to this note. As such, we
are confident that if the note holder were to seek legal redress, a
court would decide in our favor by either voiding the note or
awarding damages sufficient to offset the note value.
During
2014, we issued a note payable for $2,265,000 and warrants to
purchase 12,912,500 shares of common stock, with an exercise price
equal to the greater of a 50% discount of the stock price when our
shares are listed on a public exchange or $0.425 per share, to an
entity owned by our chief executive officer, together our principal
stockholders. The warrants expire one year after our shares are
listed on a recognized public exchange. The unsecured note has an
interest rate of 10% per annum and the balance was due on January
31, 2015. We determined the warrants had a fair value of $2,265,000
based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value was
recorded as a discount on the note payable and is being amortized
over the life of the note. As part of our agreement with the
Memphis Investors, the Board repriced the warrants to $0.00 and
exercised the warrants and issued shares of common stock. As of
December 31, 2015, principal of $152,500 has been repaid and
principal of $351,500 has been converted into 468,667 shares of
common stock, leaving a note balance of $1,761,000. During 2016, a
principal payment of $5,000 was made leaving a note balance of
$1,756,000 at December 31, 2016. On December 31, 2016, the accrued
interest was $453,093. On January 18, 2018, the note holder agreed
to extend the due date for the repayment of the loan and interest
to the earlier of December 31, 2018, or the date of the financial
closings of its Baha Mar Project (or any other project of $25
million or more), whichever occurs first. On August 15, 2017, loans
in the amount of $618,500 and accrued interest of $207,731 were
converted to 826,231 shares at $1.00 per share, which was ratified
by the Board of Directors. The conversion was recorded at
historical cost due to the related party nature of the transaction.
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we made a repayment of
note payable in the amount of $35,000. As of March 31, 2018, the
loan balance was $1,102,500 and the accrued interest was
$427,599.
During
2014, we issued a note payable of $100,000 to a related party and
$200,000 to a third party, for a total of $300,000, and warrants to
purchase 300,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of
$1.00 per share. As part of our agreement with the Memphis
Investors, the Board repriced the warrants to $0.00 and exercised
the warrants and issued shares of common stock. These unsecured
notes have an interest rate of 12% per annum. The $100,000 note
with a related party is due the earlier of December 26, 2015; the
completion by us of an equity financing resulting in our receipt of
gross proceeds of at least $2,000,000; or the financial close of
the Baha Mar project and release of funds by the bank. The balance
on the $200,000 note is due the earlier of March 31, 2015; the
completion by us of an equity financing resulting in our receipt of
gross proceeds of at least $2,000,000; or the financial close of
the Baha Mar project and release of project financing funds by the
bank. As of December 31, 2016, the notes are in default. Due to the
delay in opening of the Baha Mar Resort, our Baha Mar SWAC
Project’s financial closing was delayed causing us to default
on the notes. We have accrued the interest at a default rate of
22%. We intend to repay the notes and accrued interest upon the
project’s financial closing. Accrued interest totaled
$196,629 as of March 31, 2018.
On
April 7, 2015, we issued an unsecured convertible promissory note
in the principal amount of $50,000 to an unrelated party. The note
bears interest of 10% and is due on April 17, 2017. On April 6,
2018, the note holder agreed to extend the maturity date to April
7, 2019. The note and accrued interest can be converted into our
common stock at a conversion rate of $0.75 per share at any time
prior to the repayment. We recorded a debt discount of $6,667 for
the fair value of the beneficial conversion feature. During the
three months, we amortized $871 of debt discount. Accrued interest
totaled $15,097 as of March 31, 2018.
On
March 9, 2017, an entity owned by our chief executive officer is an
officer and director, agreed to provide up to $200,000 in working
capital. The note bears interest of 10% and is due and payable with
90 days of demand. On March 31, 2018, the balance of the loan
outstanding was $177,000 and the accrued interest as of that date
was $19,330.
During
the third quarter of 2017, the Company commenced a $2,000,000
convertible promissory note private placement offering. The terms
of the note are as follows: (i) interest is payable at 6% per
annum; (ii) the note is payable two years after purchase;
(iii) and all principal and interest on each Note shall
automatically convert on the Conversion Maturity Date into shares
of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $4.00
per share, as long as the closing share price of the
Company’s common stock on the trading day immediately
preceding the Conversion Maturity Date is at least $4.00, as
adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassification, and
the like. If the price of the Company’s shares on such date
is less than $4.00 per share, the Note (principal and interest)
will be repaid in full. As of March 31, 2018, the outstanding
balance for all four loans was $80,000, plus accrued interest of
$3,370.
On
November 6, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with a
promissory note with JPF Venture Group, Inc. (“JPF”),
an investment entity that is majority-owned by Jeremy Feakins, the
Company’s director, chief executive officer, and chief
financial officer, to loan the Company up to $2,000,000. The terms
of the note are as follows: (i) interest is payable at 10% per
annum; (ii) all unpaid principal and all accrued and unpaid
interest shall be due and payable at the earliest of (a) resolution
of the Memphis litigation; (b) June 30, 2018; or (c) when the
company is otherwise able to pay. For the three months ended March
31, 2018, we made a repayment of note payable in the amount of
$2,500. As of March 31, 2018, the outstanding balance was $639,068
and the accrued interest was $32,852.
In
December 2017, the Company entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase
Agreement pursuant to which we issued a series of unsecured
promissory notes (the “Notes”) to accredited investors,
in the aggregate principal amount of $924,156 as of March 31, 2018.
The Notes accrue interest at a rate of 10% per annum payable on a
quarterly basis and are not convertible into shares of capital
stock of the Company. The Notes are payable within five business
days after receipt of funds from L2 Capital under the Equity
Purchase Agreement equal to 20% of the total funds received by the
Company from L2 Capital payable on a pro rata basis to all holders
of the Notes. The Company may prepay the Notes in whole or in part
without penalty or premium on or before the maturity date of July
30, 2019. In connection with the issuance of the Notes, for each
Note purchased the Noteholder will receive a warrant exercised as
follows:
$10,000
note with a warrant to purchase 2,000 shares
$20,000
note with a warrant to purchase 5,000 shares
$25,000
note with a warrant to purchase 6,500 shares
$30,000
note with a warrant to purchase 8,000 shares
$40,000
note with a warrant to purchase 10,000 shares
$50,000
note with a warrant to purchase 14,000 shares
The
exercise price per share of the Warrants is equal to Eighty-Five
Percent (85%) of the closing price of the Company’s common
stock on the day immediately preceding the exercise of the relevant
Warrant, subject to adjustment as provided in the Warrant. The
Warrant includes a cashless net exercise provision whereby the
holder can elect to receive shares equal to the value of the
Warrant minus the fair market value of shares being surrendered to
pay the exercise. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the
balance outstanding was $934,156 and $490,000 respectively. As of
March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the accrued interest was
$20,340 and $613, respectively. As of March 31, 2018 and December
31, 2017, we had issued Warrants to purchase 116,500 and 134,000
shares of common stock, respectively. As of March 31, 2018 and
December 31, 2017, we determined that the warrants had a fair value
of $32,450 and $41,044, respectively based on the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model. The fair value was recorded as a discount on
the notes payable and is being amortized over the life of the notes
payable. As of March 31, 2018, 30,000 warrants have been exercised
(see Note 9) and the debt discount related to the exercised
warrants have been fully expensed. For the three months ended March
31, 2018, we amortized $17,978 of debt discount.
On
February 15, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with L2
Capital, LLC, a Kansas limited liability company
(“L2”), for a loan of up to $565,555, together with
interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum (with the
understanding that the initial six months of such interest of each
tranche funded shall be guaranteed), at maturity or upon
acceleration or otherwise, as set forth herein (the “L2
Note”). The consideration to the Company for the L2 Note is
up to $500,000.00 due to the prorated original issuance discount of
up to $55,555 (the “OID”) and a $10,000.00 credit for
L2’s transactional expenses. As of the March 31, 2018, we
have received two tranches totaling $204,444, which were allocated
as follows: Original Issuance Discount - $19,444; L2’s
Transaction Fee - $10,000; Broker-Dealer’s Fee - $14,000; Net
Proceeds to Company - $161,000. The debt discount is amortized over
the life of the L2 Note. For the three months ended March 31, 2018,
we amortized $8,303 of debt discount.

Note 9: Stockholders’ Equity
Common Stock
For the
three months ended March 31, 2018, we issued 90,657 shares of
common stock for services performed with a fair value of
$23,666.
On
January 19, 2018, two note holders elected to convert 28,000
warrants into 28,000 shares of common stock for a value of $7,854
$0.2805 per share). We received this value in cash.
On
February 26, 2018, a note holder elected to convert 2,000 warrants
into 2,000 shares of common stock for a value of $357 ($0.1785 per
share). We received this value in cash.

|
The
aggregate intrinsic value represents the excess amount over the
exercise price optionees would have received if all options had
been exercised on the last business day of the period indicated,
based on the Company’s closing stock price of $0.212 on March
31, 2018. The intrinsic value of 220,500 warrants on that date was
$7,012.
We
calculated the fair value of the options by using the Black-Scholes
option-pricing model with the following weighted average
assumptions: no dividend yield for all the years; expected
volatility ranging from 533% - 1,581%; risk-free interest rate
ranging from 2.01% - 2.45% and an expected life of three
years.
Note 10: Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
From
time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings and regulatory
proceedings arising from operations. We establish reserves for
specific liabilities in connection with legal actions that
management deems to be probable and estimable.
On May
4, 2018, the Company reached a settlement of the claims at issue in
Ocean Thermal Energy Corp. v. Robert Coe et al., Case No.
2:17-cv-02343SHL-cgc, before the United States District Court for
the Western District of Tennessee. The settlement
