Going Concern

 

To date Genoil has not attained commercially viable operations from its various patents and technology rights.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on commercializing its technologies, achieving profitable operations and obtaining the necessary financing in order to develop these technologies further. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. The Company will continue to review the prospects of raising additional debt and equity financing to support its operations until such time that its operations become self-sustaining, to fund its research and development activities and to ensure the realization of its assets and discharge of its liabilities. While the Company is expending its best efforts to achieve the above plans, there is no assurance that any such activity will generate sufficient funds for future operations.

General Risk Factors

 

An investment in the Corporation's common shares ("Common Shares") should be considered highly speculative. In addition to other information in this Form 20-F, you should carefully consider the following factors when evaluating Genoil and its business.

 

Much of the information included in this annual report includes or is based upon estimates, projections or other "forward-looking statements". Such forward-looking statements include any projections or estimates made by the Corporation and its management in connection with its business operations. While these forward-looking statements, and any assumptions upon which they are based, are made in good faith and reflect Genoil's current judgment regarding the direction of its business, actual results will almost always vary, sometimes materially, from any estimates, predictions, projections, assumptions or other future performance suggested in this document.

 

The section that follows addresses several of the risk factors related to the Corporation's operations in more detail.

 

Genoil has a history of substantial losses and negative cash flows. It expects these losses and negative cash flows to continue in the future. If it is unable to make a profit, the Corporation may not be able to continue to operate its business.

 

Genoil has not earned profits to date and it may not earn profits in the future. Profitability, if achieved, may not be sustained. The commercialization of its technologies requires financial resources and capital infusions and future revenues may not be sufficient to generate the funds required to continue its business development and marketing activities. If the Corporation does not obtain sufficient capital to fund its operations, it may be required to forego certain business opportunities or discontinue operations entirely.

 

Genoil has incurred significant losses and expects to continue to incur significantly greater costs than revenue received. Consequently, the Corporation expects to incur losses in the near term. If Genoil achieves profitability, it may not be able to sustain it. The business of initiating, developing and implementing inventive or innovative processes is inherently risky. Manpower and capital employed may not result in the development of a commercial or economic process. Once successfully developed, there is no certainty that the intended market will be receptive to the Corporation's technology. In all areas of its business, Genoil may compete against entities that may have greater technical and financial resources. The Corporation is completely dependent upon external sources of financing which may not be available on acceptable or economic terms.

 

The intellectual property and technology developed by Genoil may not work in the manner anticipated or the market may not be receptive to its technology or other new technologies might be more feasible to implement.

 

Genoil develops technology for use in various industries. Part of the risk in this type of undertaking is that the technology may not perform as expected or its use may not be economical. The development of intellectual property is expensive and time consuming and if the developed product is not marketable, then no revenues will be realized from its development.

 

The marketability of Genoil's technologies depends on the ability of those technologies to meet and adapt to the needs of industry customers. The markets for Genoil's technologies may not develop further and the current level of market acceptance of its products may decrease or may not be sustainable. In order to continue marketing its technology, the Corporation must adapt to rapid changes in technology and customer requirements. The Corporation's success will depend, in part, on its ability to enhance its existing technology, gain market acceptance, and continue to develop its products to meet increasingly demanding customer requirements.

 

Genoil's technology is still experimental so the demand for it is unknown. The Corporation's potential market may not develop as it anticipates and, accordingly, it may not be able to expand its business or operate it profitably.

 

The Corporation's technology has not been proven in any commercial venture and, as such, any market for its technology will depend significantly on its own efforts. As a result, future demand for its technology is unknown. Genoil believes that many of its potential customers are not fully aware of the benefits of its technology. The Corporation must educate potential customers regarding these benefits and convince them of its ability to provide complete and reliable services. The market for its technology may never become viable or grow further. If the market for its technology does not grow or grows more slowly than it currently anticipates, its business, financial condition and operating results would be materially adversely affected.

Key contractors may terminate their engagements.

 

Skilled and educated professionals are a fundamental component of the development of intellectual property. If these key contractors terminate their engagements with Genoil, the development of its intellectual property may be hindered or delayed, increasing the expenses associated with technology development. The Corporation's success is dependent on the services of members of its senior management team. The experience and talents of this team will be a significant factor in its continued success and growth. The loss of any senior management member could have a material adverse effect on its operations and business prospects. Given its financial situation, Genoil may not be able to retain or replace its key personnel. The Corporation has no key man insurance.

 

Genoil has issued common share purchase warrants, options, price appreciation certificates (PACs) and convertible debt, the conversion and/or exercise of which would have a dilutive effect on its earnings per share.

 

As of December 31, 2023, the following potentially dilutive instruments were outstanding:

 

Warrants

 

 

222,395,667

 

Options

 

 

84,916,000

 

PACs

 

 

689,400,000

996,919,899

 

Shares o/s

 

 

1,913,137,429

 

Pot'l Dil'n

 

 

52%

 

Furthermore, the Corporation may enter into commitments in the future which would require the issuance of additional Common Shares, and it may grant additional stock options. The Corporation is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares. Genoil issues Common Shares for the purpose of raising funds for general working capital requirements, to acquire additional technology, to accommodate strategic partnerships, or for the satisfaction of debts.

 

Third parties may claim that Genoil infringes their proprietary rights.

 

Genoil potentially may be subjected to claims that it has infringed the intellectual property rights of others. As the number of products in the oil and gas technology industry increases, the Corporation may become increasingly subject to infringement claims, including patent and copyright infringement claims. In addition, previous employers of its former, current or future employees may assert claims that such employees have improperly disclosed to Genoil the confidential or proprietary information belonging to those employers. Any such claim, with or without merit, could be time consuming to defend, result in costly litigation, divert management's attention from its core business, require it to stop selling or delay shipping, or cause the redesign of its product. In addition, Genoil may be required to pay monetary amounts as damages, for royalty or licensing arrangements, or to satisfy indemnification obligations that it has with some of its customers.

 

Genoil may not be able to protect its proprietary information.

 

Genoil relies on a combination of copyright, patents and trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures, contractual provisions and other measures to protect its proprietary information. All of these measures afford only limited protection. These measures may be invalidated, circumvented or challenged, and others may develop technologies or processes that are similar or superior to the Corporation's technology. Despite its efforts to protect its proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy Genoil's products or to obtain or use information that it regards as proprietary. Given its size and financial situation, Genoil may not be ultimately effective in preventing misappropriation of its proprietary rights.

 

Genoil's intellectual property may become outdated or surpassed by industry improvements.

 

Genoil is a technology-based company and is involved in developing, improving, and marketing its technology to customers. There is a risk that new developments in Genoil's field of specialty will arise, making its technology products less marketable. To enhance its position in the technology industry, the Corporation must continue to develop and improve its current products and develop product extensions. There may not be a demand for the products or capital available to finance their development in the future.

Genoil operates in a competitive market.

 

The business of providing technology-based solutions to industry is highly competitive. Some of Genoil's competitors may have greater financial and marketing resources, greater market share and name recognition than it has, which would allow them to quickly develop market presence in the markets Genoil serves or allow them to expand into new markets that Genoil intends to serve. Given its size and financial position, the Corporation may not be able to effectively compete with these competitors.

 

Potential expansion and opportunities may arise.

 

Genoil may continue to expand its operations or product lines through the acquisition of additional businesses, products or technologies. It may not be able to identify, acquire or profitably manage additional businesses or successfully integrate any acquired businesses, products or technologies without substantial expenses, delays or other operational or financial challenges. Furthermore, acquisitions may involve a number of additional risks, including the diversion of management's attention, failure to retain key personnel, unanticipated events or circumstances and legal liabilities, some or all of which could have a material adverse effect on Genoil's business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, acquired businesses, products or technologies, if any, may not achieve anticipated revenues and profitability. Acquisitions could also result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities. The Corporation's failure to manage its acquisition strategy could have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

U.S. investors may have difficulty enforcing judgments against Genoil or its management.

 

Genoil is incorporated in Canada. Substantially all of its assets are located outside the United States. As a result, U.S. investors may not be able to:

 

 

 

effect service of process upon the Corporation or these persons within the United States; or

 

 

 

enforce against the Corporation or these persons in United States courts, judgments obtained in United States courts, including judgments predicated on the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States; or

 

 

 

initiate a derivative suit on the Corporation's behalf.

 

Climate Disclosures

 

It is presently undetermined how climate change may affect Genoil’s business affairs.

Eight hundred hectares of land has been reserved for the project. Government gas supply is in place, there are three crude feedstock agreements in place for up to 200,000 barrels per day and three refined product offtake contracts have been secured as well. Eight square kilometers of land has been secured in the Special Economic Zone Authority of Duqm (SEZAD). The local licenses allow for export and import of products, sea and coastal oil and gas water transport and construction of petrochemical complexes. The local licenses have no limitation on project capacity and will allow for expansion in the future.

2021

 

On June 30, 2021, the Company signed an agreement with the Ras Madrakah Petroleum Industry Company and Beijing Petrochemical Engineering Company, a subsidiary of Yanchang Petroleum International Limited to develop a greenfield Genoil Upgrading refinery with a capacity of 200,000 barrels per day in the Port of Duqm in the Sultanate of Oman. Estimated to cost approximately $2.4 billion USD, the project will utilize the Genoil Upgrading Technology "GHU" Process. Genoil will license its proprietary technology, process design package, training, and advisory services, as well as proprietary catalyst and equipment supply.

 

On August 31, 2021, the Company made a proposal to the Russian Government to build new pipelines to Asia, which would enable all Russian natural gas and oil currently produced and supplied to the EU to be diverted to markets in China. This proposal shields Russia from German and EU threats relating to the Ukraine and sanctions relating to the EU Carbon tax.

B. Business overview.

 

General Development of the Business

 

Genoil's principal business is the development of technologies relating to the oil and gas industry. Its present goal is to commercialize its technologies internationally.

 

The Corporation owns rights to several patented and proprietary technologies. A number of products that have been created from these technologies are under development. None of its technologies have been commercialized. A discussion of these products follows.

 

No consideration has been given to consumer boycotts as a result of operations in Countries of Particular Concern as defined by the International Religious Freedom Act of 1998. Genoil is a Canadian company and as such the International Religious Freedom Act of 1998 does not apply to its operations. The Corporation does not produce consumer products.

 

Genoil formed a corporation in the Middle East with SBK Commercial Business Group in the United Arab Emirates. The corporation is named “Genoil Emirates”.

 

The purpose of this new corporation is to create projects in the U.A.E. for all of Genoil’s technologies, including: desulfurization, oil upgrading and recycling, water purification port technologies, well testing, and sand cleaning. Currently the United Arab Emirates has the seventh largest oil reserves in the world and is looking to expand production.

 

The Genoil Emirates joint venture between Genoil and SBK Commercial Business Group has significant promise. Genoil Emirates has established its head office in Riyadh, 11321 Kingdome of Saudi Arabia. The address is Building B, Near Gulf Commercial Complex Olaya, P.O. Box: 230032. It also has a branch location at Khober DAMAM, Block 7 Office 32 Khober, Telephone: +96614633181 Facsimile: +96614664763.

 

Pilot Heavy Oil Upgrader

 

Genoil has been primarily involved in the development and commercial applications of its proprietary heavy oil upgrading technology – the Genoil Hydroconversion Upgrader (GHU®).

Table of Contents

 

The GHU® converts sour (high sulphur), heavy hydrocarbon feed stocks into lighter oil with higher quality distillates for conventional refining. The GHU® process uses a hydrogen enrichment methodology based on catalytic hydrogenation and flash separation.

 

The GHU®’s unique intellectual property is in its hydroconversion design and mixing devices. A GHU® provides greater mass/heat transfer between hydrogen, crude and catalyst. As a result, hydroconversion can be achieved at mild operating conditions.

 

Sour, acidic, heavy crude and residual by-products are converted into lighter distillates, increasing the API (or lowering the density), while maximizing denitrogenation, desulphurisation and demetalisation to meet new regulatory requirements. The upgraded crude product will have higher yields of naphtha, distillates and vacuum gas oil with reduced levels of contaminants such as sulphur, nitrogen and metals. Genoil’s process is designed specifically to eliminate most of the sulphur from the feed stocks.

 

The Genoil GHU Upgrader has been designed to remove 99.5% of the sulphur, as shown in its latest tests, while lightening the oil at the same time, significantly raising its API gravity.

 

The Genoil Upgrading Process yields zero waste and consumes no external energy or hydrogen, deriving its hydrogen and energy from its own residue. The cost structure is therefore much lower than standard upgrading processes in hydrogenation and does not give off a waste byproduct such as coking of 30%.

 

Oil/Water Separation

 

The Genoil Water Treatment Department has increased its significance in the business model of the Corporation. Initially developed for the bilge area of a ship, the Crystal Separator is suitable for a wide range of applications, including off-shore oil platforms, wastewater treatment plants, refineries, gasoline service stations and ports. Genoil’s Crystal Sea oil and water separator is a compact unit that is able to handle small volumes from 2 GPM to 20 GPM using a compartmental process.

 

The acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares of Two Hills Environmental Inc. conveys to Genoil surface title to 147 acres of land, together with certain subsurface mineral rights contained within 2,500 adjacent acres. These multiple salt caverns could potentially be utilized for a variety of purposes including waste oil disposal, gas storage reservoirs and waste water disposal.

 

This site has potential as a waste oil/water disposal and treatment facility due its convenient proximity to several waste disposal companies. Alternatively, several of these massive salt caverns could become natural gas storage facilities. Any development is subject to obtaining the proper permits from the necessary regulatory agencies, further detailed economic analysis and obtaining appropriate financing.

 

Two Hills was initially formed to enter into the oilfield waste disposal industry by capitalizing upon its current undeveloped asset base. This asset base is comprised of a site under which very large salt caverns have been formed in the Lotsberg Formation beneath the earth’s surface. Such caverns are prized in the oilfield disposal industry due to their efficacy and safety as a destination for oilfield wastes.

 

Revenues from Product Sales

 

The majority of Genoil's products continue to be at the commercialization stage and have not recently produced revenues.

 

Expenditures Relating to the Sale of Products

 

Genoil is primarily involved in the development of its technologies for commercial application. The Company has been building its internal capabilities. Genoil utilizes independent contractors to provide engineering and other services for projects as needed. The operational sites are at – Two Hills AB, and New York, NY.

 

Genoil does not intend to commit to any expenditures of any other nature, beyond expenditures necessary for the development and maintenance of its technologies, in the near future.

Geographic Markets

 

The Company markets its technology mainly to potential customers in the Middle East, Russia and China. The markets for Genoil’s products are global.

 

Intellectual Property Rights

 

Genoil has been granted 7 US patents (Patent nos. 6,527,960; 7,001,502; 7,014,756; 5,603,825, 7,510,689, 7,704,400, and, 7,754,076), 2 Canadian patents (No. 2,243,142 and 2,306,069). Genoil either owns or licenses the rights to all intellectual properties used in its products.

 

Genoil has copyright, patent rights and trademarks, which are necessary and contribute significantly to the preservation of its competitive position in the markets which it addresses. It is possible that the Corporation's patents and other intellectual property will be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by third parties in the future. In the future, it may not be able to obtain necessary licenses on commercially reasonable terms. Genoil enters into nondisclosure agreements with its suppliers, contractors and employees, as appropriate, so as to limit access to and disclosure of its proprietary information. These measures may not suffice to deter misappropriation or independent third party development of similar technologies, which may adversely affect the Corporation.

 

Sales, Marketing and Distribution

 

Genoil intends to market its products and license its GHU technology throughout the world's oil refining and production industry

 

Competition

 

Genoil is aware that several other companies may be presently pursuing the development of technologies in the oil and gas industry. It acknowledges that it is possible that some of these technologies may be similar in nature to its products and technologies. Such companies, should they be involved in selling or developing the same technology as Genoil, may be potential competitors to the Corporation. The Company believes that its patented fixed bed catalyst hydroprocessing technology in the GHU is competitively advantaged in the market by virtue of the expected comparatively low capital and operating costs and high product yields for operators relative to other coking or hydroprocessing products.

 

Government Regulations

 

There are several government regulations with which Genoil must comply. Failure to comply with these regulations could adversely affect its business. Certain government regulations require the imposition of standards that are normally a part of industry knowledge, and as such, would be understood and acted upon by the Corporation in the normal course of doing business.

 

Genoil, as a producer of technology and intellectual property, is not generally subject to environmental regulations. Genoil specializes in mechanical processes and as such its regular operations do not fall within the scope of environmental protection legislation.

 

The Corporation was subject to securities regulation in the Canadian jurisdictions in which it was a reporting issuer. As an issuer with securities traded on the TSX Venture Exchange, the Company was subject to its rules. The Corporation's shares are now quoted on the Over the Counter (OTC) Markets Quotation System and as such, the Corporation is subject to the OTC listing requirements.

 

Plan of Operation

 

The Company does not expect to generate significant revenue or cash flow from its technologies or services for the 2023 year, and possibly beyond.

 

The Company expects revenue and cash flow to be generated in staged phases following the execution of definitive agreements.

 

Genoil expects to generate revenues for the design, implementation and procurement of its GHU® systems and/or the licensing of its intellectual property.

 

The Corporation has accumulated losses of $104.3 million to year ended December 31, 2023 and is not realizing any cash flow as it has not to date attained commercial operations in connection with its various patents and technology rights.

Table of Contents

 

Since inception, Genoil has principally been a technology development company. In the recent past, commercialization efforts have been underway for Genoil’s GHU®. Genoil is marketing its GHU® (and related engineering and design services) to refiners and producers of sour, heavy crude around the world. The Company believes that there is strong market potential for this technology.

 

The Company continues to focus its efforts on securing commercial applications for its heavy oil upgrading and oil-water separation technologies and exploring new avenues in energy related industries.

 

At the present time intensive efforts are being made in the Middle East, Africa, the Caribbean, Mexico, Canada, Russia and Asia to market the GHU Upgrader and Crystal Sea Bilge Cleaning Units for ports. Agents that are not performing are being changed and new agents are being signed up to accelerate our efforts to roll out the technologies.

 

Genoil is aggressively marketing its GHU Upgrader technology to those countries and companies that have substantial heavy oil reserves as “peak oil” in light oil already has arrived in our estimation, and a move developing and upgrading heavy oil is around the corner.

 

Genoil has announced that the USPTO has allowed a patent for the reactor of its sand decontamination process. The sand decontamination system has also been patented recently and the two patents form a valuable addition to the intellectual property of Genoil. The reactor plays a key role in the sand decontamination process and its features are designed to effectively remove oil from sand, separate oil from sand and water and recover the oil in the reactor for reuse. An innovative method is utilized for extracting oil from sand and removing the oil from the path of the sand.

 

C. Organizational structure.

 

David Lifschultz has headed Genoil as CEO since 2001. Since working for Genoil, David has not received any cash compensation nor has he sold any Genoil stock. No executives or board members of Genoil receive any cash compensation. They receive only shares and options or Price Appreciation Certificates.

 

The Company has been building its internal capabilities. Genoil utilizes independent contractors to provide engineering and other services for projects as needed. The operational sites are at – Two Hills AB and New York, NY.

 

The company seeks to work through commission agents who will receive compensation only when revenues are generated.

 

Some consultants and agents generally act as representatives on Genoil’s behalf with respect to commercial opportunities in their respective cities and countries. The Corporation intends to rely upon the services of these representatives and to remunerate them by means of sales commissions and incentive stock options.

 

Genoil has the following subsidiaries:

 

 

·

Genoil USA Inc., incorporated in Delaware, United States, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genoil.

 

·

Genoil Emirates LLC, incorporated in the United Arab Emirates, which will focus upon the fields of oil and water processing and treatment in the United Arab Emirates. Emirates LLC is jointly owned by S.B.K. Commercial Business Group LLC and Genoil. As of December 31, 2022, Emirates LLC had not yet commenced operations and holds no assets.

 

·

Two Hills Environmental Inc. incorporated in Canada and registered in Alberta, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genoil. Two Hills was formed to enter into the oilfield waste disposal industry by capitalizing upon its current undeveloped asset base. The asset base comprises a site under which three salt caverns have been formed in the Lotsberg Formation beneath the earth's surface. Such caverns are used in the oilfield disposal industry as a destination for oilfield wastes.

 

D. Property, plant and equipment.

 

Human Resources and Facilities

 

The Company has been building its internal capabilities. Genoil utilizes independent contractors to provide engineering and other services for projects as needed. The operational sites are at –Two Hills, Alberta and New York, NY. The Company seeks to work through commission agents who will receive compensation when revenues are generated. Management has been aggressive in attracting talented individuals who are very experienced, knowledgeable and will assist Genoil in realizing its objectives in different markets.

 

The facilities operated by the Corporation are not subject to environmental protection legislation and to its knowledge no environmental issues exist that would potentially affect its utilization of its assets.

B. Compensation.

 

Share-Based Awards

 

An important part of the Corporation's current compensation program is the granting of share-based awards to the Named Executive Officers (NEOs). These share-based awards have been granted in replacement, or in lieu, of options to purchase Common Shares pursuant to the Corporation's Option Plan. The granting of such awards is approved by the Board upon recommendation from the Compensation Committee. The Board considers previous grants when considering new grants.

 

Further, in lieu of cash compensation the Company has entered into agreements (“Price Appreciation Certificates”) with David Lifschultz and Bruce Abbott whereby, at the request of the executives, the Company agrees to pay the equivalent sum of the rise in the Company’s stock price based on the agreed upon number of shares, from a fixed per share amount to the average of the last 10 trading days (volume weighted average price).

 

The number of shares reflect a potential salary for the two executives that only exist if the price of the shares rise above the price appreciation base amount. The Company has no obligation to pay the two executives if the stock does not rise. The Company, at its exclusive option and benefit, can proceed with a private placement at the share price on the date of exercise and the executive will subscribe to this private placement for the entire sum advanced by the Company.

 

Due to financial constraints, neither of the NEOs has ever received any cash compensation. Historically, the Corporation granted the NEOs option-based awards which were to be renewed upon expiration. The share-based awards granted to Messrs. Lifschultz and Abbott were granted: (i) as current compensation in lieu of options; or (ii) in certain instances, in replacement of expired options granted as compensation for previous years. The outstanding share-based awards represent 19 years of compensation to Messrs. Lifschultz and Abbott, the latter of whom was Mr. Lifschultz's aide before becoming an officer and director of the Corporation. Accordingly, their endeavors for the Corporation are to be rewarded only if the Corporation is successful and that success is reflected in the trading value of the Common Shares, thereby aligning management and Shareholder objectives.

Notes:

(1) The Company accounts for Price Appreciation Certificates as an equity instrument due to its exclusive option to require a subscription to the private placement as determined by the fair value of the instruments using a Black-Scholes pricing model.

 

The fair value of Price Appreciation Certificates granted during 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020 and 2019 was estimated on the dates of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model.

 

C. Board practices.

 

Directors are elected annually to the Board of Directors (the “Board”) at the Corporation's Annual General Meeting. Directors may also, between Annual General Meetings, appoint one or more additional Directors, provided such number of additional directors does not exceed 1/3 of the existing number, to serve until the next Annual General Meeting. No Director has a service contract with Genoil providing for benefits upon termination of employment.

 

Duties and Obligations of the Board of Directors

 

The general duty of Genoil's Board of Directors is to oversee the management of Genoil's business and affairs. In particular, the Board of Directors is responsible for the following matters:

Composition of the Board of Directors

 

As of December 31, 2023, Genoil's Board of Directors consisted of Messrs. David Lifschultz, Rolando Ramon, Bruce Abbott, Thomas F. Bugg, Marco Quintela and Jose Garcia Torres. Of the Board, Messrs. Ramon, Torres, Taylor. Quintela and Bugg are "independent". Mr. David Lifschultz is not independent as he is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation. Bruce Abbott is not considered to be independent as he is the President.

 

The definition of "independence" that Genoil uses when determining a director's independence is derived from National Instrument 58-101, published by the Canadian Securities Administrators and adopted in all Canadian jurisdictions.

 

The Board facilitates its exercise of independent supervision over management by attempting to meet independently from management when warranted, determining what additional information it needs from management and seeking outside advice and support as it considers appropriate. Generally, the Board attempts to ensure that all board committees are composed in the majority by non-management directors with consideration being had to the Corporation's current size and board composition.

(c) reviewing with management and with the external auditor any proposed changes in major accounting policies, in the presentation and impact of significant risks and uncertainties, and in key estimates and judgments of management that may be material to financial reporting;

 

(d) questioning management and the external auditor regarding significant financial reporting issues discussed during the fiscal period and the method of resolution;

 

(e) reviewing any problems experienced by the external auditor in performing the audit, including any restrictions imposed by management or significant accounting issues on which there was a disagreement with management; and

Transactions with Affiliates, Directors or Officers

 

Genoil's approach for transactions with affiliates is that they must be on terms no less favourable to the Corporation than could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.

 

In the case of transactions involving a director, any of the Corporation's directors who, in any way, whether directly or indirectly, have an interest in a proposed contract or transaction with it, must disclose the nature and extent of his interest to the Corporation's Board and abstain from voting on the approval of the proposed contract or transaction. If he or she fails to do so, he or she must account to the Corporation for any profit made as a consequence of entering into the contract or transaction, unless the contract was fair and reasonable to the Corporation at the time it was entered into, and after full disclosure of the nature and extent of his or her interest, it is approved by the Corporation's shareholders by way of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast at a duly convened shareholders' meeting. In addition, any of the Corporation's directors and officers who holds any office or possesses any property whereby, whether directly or indirectly, duties or interests might be created in conflict with his or her duties or interests as a director or officer, must disclose that fact and the nature and extent of the conflict. In the case of a director, the disclosure must be made at a Board meeting.

 

In the case of transactions involving an officer, the disclosure must be made in writing to the Corporation's Chairman at a Board meeting.

Item 10. Additional Information

 

A. Share capital.

 

Not required as this is an annual report under the Exchange Act.

 

B. Memorandum and articles of association.

 

Genoil was formed by the amalgamation under the Canada Business Corporations Act (the "CBCA") of Genoil Inc. and Continental Fashions Group Inc. ("CFG"), a public company whose shares traded on the Alberta Stock Exchange. At the time of the merger CFG had no assets, no liabilities and did not carry on any business. Genoil was incorporated in April of 1996 under Certificate of Incorporation no. 324649-3. In June of 1996, it amended and altered its Memorandum and Articles of Association. This amendment was made to facilitate a reorganization of its share capital in accordance with the amalgamation referenced above. The Articles of Amalgamation, adopted in September of 1996, replaced the Articles of Incorporation, as amended.

 

At the Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Corporation, held on May 31, 2006, shareholders of the Corporation passed a special resolution authorizing the Corporation to amend its Articles to create an additional class of share to be designed as "Class A Preferred Shares" and to allow for the appointment of additional directors of the Corporation between shareholder meetings.

 

The Articles of Amalgamation are subject to all the provisions of the CBCA. The CBCA provides that a company incorporated under that Act has all the powers and capacities of a natural person. The CBCA further stipulates that a company must not carry on a business that its articles prohibit. The Corporation's articles contain no prohibitions on the nature of businesses that it may carry out. Thus, it has the power and capacity of a natural person.

 

The following brief description of provisions of the CBCA, the Corporation's amended and restated articles of incorporation and by-laws do not purport to be complete and are subject in all respects to the provisions of the CBCA, the Corporation's restated articles of incorporation and by-laws.

 

Regulation SK Item 702 requires the Corporation to state the general effect of any statute, charter provisions, by-laws, contract or other arrangements under which any controlling persons, director or officer of the registrant is insured or indemnified in any manner against liability which he may incur in his capacity as such.

 

Furthermore, the by-laws of the Corporation provide that except in respect of an action by or on behalf of the Corporation or other entity to procure a judgment in its favour, the Corporation will indemnify a director or officer of the Corporation against all costs, charges, and expenses, including an amount paid to settle an action or satisfy a judgment, reasonably incurred by the individual in respect of any civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other proceeding in which the individual is involved because of that association with the Corporation or other entity.

 

Directors' Conflicts of Interest

 

Section 120 of the CBCA requires every director who is, in any way, directly or indirectly, interested in one of Genoil's proposed material contracts or transactions, to disclose the nature and extent of the director's interest in writing or by requesting to have it entered in the minutes of the meeting of directors or of meetings of committees of directors.

 

The CBCA further provides that a director or officer who is required to disclose an interest may not vote on any resolution to approve the contract or transaction unless the contract or transaction, (i) relates primarily to the director's or officer's remuneration as one of the Corporation's directors, officers, employees or agents or that of an affiliate, (ii) is for indemnity or insurance for the director against liability incurred by the director or officer acting in his or her capacity as a director or officer, or (iii) is with an affiliate.

 

Borrowing Powers

 

The Corporation's By-Law No. 3 states that the Board of Directors may exercise borrowing powers provided for in this by-law. These powers include borrowing money on credit, issuing bonds, debentures, notes and other indebtedness, giving guarantees on behalf of the Corporation and granting mortgages by the Corporation, among others.

 

 
23

Table of Contents

 

Directors

 

The number of directors shall be not less than one and not more than nine. The number of directors may be determined from time to time by an ordinary resolution of the shareholders passed at a duly convened general meeting. A director is not required to own any of the Corporation's shares to be qualified to serve as a director. A director is not required to retire under any age-limit requirement.

 

Upon the termination of each annual general meeting, all the directors are deemed to cease serving as directors. The number of directors to be elected at any such meeting will be the number of directors then in office unless the directors or shareholders otherwise determine.

 

If the shareholders remove any director before the expiration of his or her period of office and appoint another person in his or her place, that person so appointed shall hold office only during the remainder of the time that the director in whose place he or she is appointed would have held the office if he or she had not been removed. If the shareholders do not appoint another director to replace the removed director the vacancy may be filled by the directors.

 

The directors of the Corporation, between annual meetings, may appoint one or more additional directors of the Corporation to serve until the next annual meeting, provided that the number of additional directors of the Corporation shall not at any time exceed one-third of the number of directors who held office at the expiration of the last annual meeting of the Corporation.

 

The directors, or any committee of directors, may take any action required or permitted to be taken by them and may exercise any of the authorities, powers and discretions for the time being vested in or exercisable by them by way of a resolution either passed at a meeting at which a quorum is present or consented to in writing under the applicable section of the CBCA.

 

The directors may appoint a president, one or more vice-presidents, a secretary, a treasurer and other officers as determined by the Board, including assistants to the Board. The directors may specify the duties of and delegate powers to manage the business and affairs of the directors to these officers. The Corporation may also appoint a chairman of the Board, who must also be a director, and assign the powers and duties assigned to the managing director or president, under the by-laws, or other powers and duties.

 

Rights Attached to Shares

 

The following is a description of the rights, preferences, and restrictions attached to each class of the Corporation's shares:

 

(a) Unlimited Common Shares – Each Common Share carries the right to one vote at any meeting of the Corporation's shareholders. Dividends are payable on the Common Shares in the discretion of the Board of Directors. After a period of six years, dividends that have been paid but remain unclaimed by shareholders shall be forfeited to the Corporation. In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation or any distribution of Genoil's assets for the purpose of winding up its affairs, the Common Shares shall be entitled to receive Genoil's remaining property. The Common Shares are not redeemable at the Corporation's option or at the option of the holders. There are no sinking fund provisions respecting the Common Shares. The holders of the Common Shares are not liable for any further capital calls on such shares.

 

(b) Up to 10,000,000 Class A Preferred Shares – The Class A Preferred Shares may at any time and from time to time be issued in one or more series, each series consisting of such number of shares as may, before their issuance, be determined by resolution of the directors of the Corporation. Subject to the provisions of the CBCA, the directors of the Corporation may by resolution fix before the issue of Class A Preferred Shares the designation, rights, privileges, restrictions and conditions attaching to each series of the Class A Preferred Shares.

 

Alteration of the Rights of Shareholders

 

No rights, privileges or restrictions attached to the Common Shares may be altered except with the approval by resolution passed by the vote of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast in respect of a resolution to alter such rights.

 

There are no limitations in Genoil's charter on the rights of non-resident or foreign owners to hold Common Shares of Genoil.

 

Shareholders' Meetings

 

The CBCA requires the directors to call an annual general meeting of shareholders not later than fifteen months after the last annual general meeting and no later than six months after the end of the Corporation's preceding financial year. The directors may, whenever they think fit, convene a special meeting.

 

 
24

Table of Contents

 

Notice of a meeting must specify the time and place of a meeting, and, in case of special business, the general nature of that business and the text of any resolution. The accidental omission to give notice of any meeting to, or the non-receipt of any notice by any of the shareholders entitled to receive notice does not invalidate any proceedings at that meeting.

 

All business that is transacted at meetings of shareholders, with the exception of consideration of the financial statements and auditor's report, election of directors, appointment of Genoil's auditor is deemed to be special business.

 

Genoil's Articles stipulate that business shall be conducted at any general meeting if there is quorum present at the opening of the meeting notwithstanding that there ceases to be a quorum present throughout the meeting. A quorum is shareholders entitled to vote or proxy holders representing more than 10% of Genoil's outstanding shares entitled to vote at the meeting.

 

Genoil's Articles stipulate that the Chairman of the Board, or in his absence, the Corporation's Managing Director, or in his absence the Corporation's President shall preside as chairman of every general meeting.

 

Unless the directors otherwise determine, the instrument appointing a proxyholder shall be deposited at a place specified for that purpose in the notice convening the meeting, not less than forty-eight hours before the time for holding the meeting at which the proxyholder proposes to vote.

 

Notice of every general meeting should be sent to:

 

(a) each director;

 

(b) the Corporation's auditor;

 

(c) every shareholder entered in the securities registrar as the holder of a share or shares carrying the right to vote at such meetings on the record date or, if no record date was established by the directors, on the date of mailing such notice; and

 

(d) every person upon whom the ownership of a share devolves by reason of his being a legal personal representative or a trustee in bankruptcy of a shareholder where the shareholder, but for his death or bankruptcy, would be entitled to vote.

 

No other person is entitled to receive notice of general meetings.

 

There are no limitations to the rights of non-resident or foreign shareholders to hold or exercise voting rights associated with Genoil's securities.

 

These provisions do not deviate significantly from U.S. law, insofar as the following matters are concerned:

 

According to Rule 405 of the Securities Act, the term "foreign private issuer" means any foreign issuer other than a foreign government except an issuer meeting the following conditions:

 

(a) More than 50 percent of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer are directly or indirectly owned of record by residents of the United States; and

 

(b) Any of the following:

 

(i) The majority of the executive officers or directors are United States citizens or residents;

 

(ii) More than 50 percent of the assets of the issuer are located in the United States; or

 

(iii) The business of the issuer is administered principally in the United States.

 

Further, the predominant rule in most U.S. jurisdictions is that an annual meeting must be held every 13 months.

 

C. Material contracts.

 

Genoil has entered into the following material contracts in the ordinary course of business for the two years preceding this registration statement:

Genoil will license its proprietary technology, process design package, training, and advisory services, as well as proprietary catalyst and equipment supply.

 

D. Exchange controls.

 

There is no law or governmental decree or regulation in Canada that restricts the export or import of capital or affects the remittance of dividends, interest or other payments to a non-resident holder of Common Shares, other than withholding tax requirements. See "Taxation".

 

E. Taxation.

 

Genoil has provided the following summary of the material Canadian federal and U.S. federal income tax considerations generally applicable in respect of the holding or disposing of Common Shares.

This summary is not exhaustive of all possible income tax consequences.  The following discussion is for general information only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any holder or prospective holder of Genoil's Common Shares and no opinion or representation with respect to any such holder or prospective holder with respect to the income tax consequences to any such holder or prospective holder is made.  Accordingly, it is recommended that holders and prospective holders of the Corporation's Common Shares consult their own tax advisors about the Canadian federal and provincial and U.S. federal, state, local, and foreign tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of the Corporation's Common Shares.

 

Canadian Federal Income Tax Consequences

 

Disposition of Common Shares

 

Provided that the Common Shares are listed on a "prescribed stock exchange", which currently includes the TSX Venture Exchange but does not include the OTC Markets, a U.S. Holder of Common Shares will not be subject to tax in Canada under the ITA on capital gains realized on the disposition of such Common Shares unless the shares are "taxable Canadian property." Such Common Shares will be taxable Canadian property if, in general, at any time during the sixty month period immediately preceding the disposition, 25% or more of Genoil's issued shares of any class (or an option to acquire 25% or more of the issued shares of any class) were owned by such holder, or by such holder and persons with whom such holder did not deal at arm's length.  If the Corporation's shares are taxable Canadian property to a U.S. Holder of Common Shares, 50% of any resulting capital gain realized on the disposition of such shares may be subject to tax in Canada.  However, the Treaty provides that gains realized by a U.S. Holder of Common Shares on the disposition of shares of a Canadian corporation will be exempt from federal tax in Canada unless the value of the Canadian corporation is derived principally from real property situated in Canada.  It is the current position of the Canada Revenue Agency that a U.S. limited liability company is not entitled to the benefits of the Treaty.

 

Dividend Distributions on Genoil's Shares

 

Dividends paid on Genoil's Common Shares held by a U.S. Holder of Common Shares will be subject to Canadian non-resident withholding tax.  The Corporation is required to withhold taxes at source.  Under the Treaty, a withholding rate of 5% is applicable to corporations resident in the United States and who are beneficial owners of at least 10% of the voting shares of the Corporation.  Under the Treaty, a withholding rate of 15% is applicable in all other cases.

 

United States Federal Income Tax Consequences

 

The U.S. federal income tax consequences related to the disposition and ownership of Common Shares, subject to the Foreign Personal Holding Company Rules, Passive Foreign Investment Company and Controlled Foreign Corporation Rules contained in the Code, are generally as follows:

 

 
27

Table of Contents

 

Disposition of Common Shares

 

On a disposition of Common Shares, a U.S. Holder of Common Shares generally will recognize a gain or loss.  The gain or loss will be equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale and the U.S. Holder of Common Share's adjusted tax basis in those shares.  Any such gain or loss will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the shareholder has held the shares for more than one year.  Otherwise the gain or loss will be a short-term capital gain or loss.  However, a gain realized on the disposition of Common Shares may be treated as ordinary income if the company was a "collapsible corporation" within the meaning of the Code.  The gain or loss will generally be a U.S. source gain or loss.

 

A collapsible corporation is usually formed to give a short-term venture the appearance of a long-term investment in order to portray income as capital gain rather than profit.  Such a corporation is typically formed for the sole purpose of purchasing property and usually dissolved before the property has generated substantial income.  The Internal Revenue Service treats the income earned through a collapsible corporation as ordinary income rather than as capital gain.

 

Dividend Distributions on Shares

 

Dividend distributions (including constructive dividends) paid by Genoil will be required to be included in the income of a U.S. Holder of Common Shares to the extent of the Corporation's current or accumulated earnings and profits ("E&P") attributable to the distribution without reduction for any Canadian withholding tax withheld from such distributions.  Even if such payment is in fact not converted to U.S. dollars, the amount of any cash distribution paid in Canadian dollars will be equal to the U.S. dollar value of the Canadian dollars on the date of distribution based on the exchange rate on such date.  To the extent distributions the Corporation pays on the Common Shares exceed the Corporation's current or accumulated E&P, they will be treated first as a return of capital up to a shareholder's adjusted tax basis in the shares and then as capital gain from the sale or exchange of the shares.

 

Dividends paid on the Common Shares generally will not be eligible for the "dividends received" deduction provided to corporations receiving dividends from certain U.S. corporations.  These dividends generally may be subject to backup withholding tax, unless a U.S. Holder of Common Shares furnishes the Corporation with a duly completed and signed Form W-9.  The U.S. Holder of Common Shares will be allowed a refund or a credit equal to any amount withheld under the U.S. backup withholding tax rules against the U.S. Holder of Common Share's U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the shareholder furnishes the required information to the IRS.

 

Foreign Tax Credit

 

A U.S. Holder of Common Shares will generally be entitled to a foreign tax credit or deduction in an amount equal to the Canadian tax withheld.  Dividends paid by Genoil generally will constitute foreign source dividend income and "passive income" for purposes of the foreign tax credit, which could reduce the amount of foreign tax credits available to shareholders.  There are significant and complex limitations that apply to the credit.

 

Foreign Personal Holding Company Rules

 

Special U.S. tax rules apply to a shareholder of a foreign personal holding company ("FPHC").  Genoil would be classified as a FPHC in any taxable year if both of the following tests are satisfied:

 

 

 

at least 60% of Genoil's gross income consists of "foreign personal holding company income", which generally includes passive income such as dividends, interest, royalties, gains from shares and commodity transactions and rents; and

 

 

 

more than 50% of the total voting power of all classes of voting shares or the total value of outstanding shares is owned directly or indirectly by five or fewer individuals who are U.S. citizens or residents.

 

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

 

Special U.S. tax rules apply to a shareholder of a Passive Foreign Investment Company ("PFIC").  Genoil could be classified as a PFIC if, after the application of certain "look through" rules, for any taxable year, either:

 

 

 

75% or more of the Corporation's gross income for the taxable year is "passive income," which includes interest, dividends and certain rents and royalties; or

 

 

 

the average quarterly percentage, by fair market value of the Corporation's assets that produce or are held for the production of "passive income" is 50% or more of the fair market value of all of its assets.

 

To the extent Genoil owns at least 25% by value of the shares of another corporation, it is treated for purposes of the PFIC tests as owning its proportionate share of the assets of such corporation, and as receiving directly its proportionate share of the income of such corporation.

 

 
28

Table of Contents

 

Distributions which constitute "excess distributions" from a PFIC and dispositions of Common Shares of a PFIC are subject to the following special rules:

 

 

 

the excess distributions (generally any distributions received by a U.S. Holder of Common Shares on the shares in any taxable year that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by such U.S. Holder of Common Shares in the three preceding taxable years, or the U.S. Holder of Common Share's holding period for the shares, if shorter) or gain would be allocated on a pro rata basis over a U.S. Holder of Common Share's holding period for the shares;

 

 

 

the amount allocated to the current taxable year and any taxable year prior to the first taxable year in which the Corporation is a PFIC would be treated as ordinary income in the current taxable year; and

 

 

 

the amount allocated to each of the other taxable years would be subject to the highest rate of tax on ordinary income in effect for that year and to an interest charge based on the value of the tax deferred during the period during which the shares are owned.

 

U.S. Holders of Common Shares who actually or constructively own shares in a PFIC may be eligible to make certain elections which require them to include income for the PFIC on an annual basis.

 

Controlled Foreign Corporation Rules

 

Generally, if more than 50% of the voting power or total value of all classes of Genoil's shares are owned, directly or indirectly, by U.S. shareholders, who individually own 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of the Corporation's shares, the Corporation could be treated as a controlled foreign corporation ("CFC") under Subpart F of the Code. This classification would require such 10% or greater shareholders to include in income their pro rata shares of its "Subpart F Income," as defined in the Code. In addition, a gain from the sale or exchange of shares by a U.S. Holder of Common Shares who is or was a 10% or greater shareholder at any time during the five year period ending with the sale or exchange will be deemed ordinary dividend income to the extent that the Corporation's E&P is attributable to the shares sold or exchanged.

Such caverns are used in the oilfield disposal industry as a destination for oilfield wastes.

  

Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Item 13. Defaults, Dividends Arrearages and Delinquencies

 

There have been no material defaults in the payment of interest or principal or any dividend or arrearages or material delinquencies.

 

Item 14. Material Modifications to the Rights of Security Holders and Use of Proceeds

 

There has been no material modification to the rights of Genoil's security holders.

 

Item 15. Controls and Procedures

 

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that all relevant information is gathered and reported to senior management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), on a timely basis so that appropriate decisions can be made regarding public disclosure.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2023 the CEO and CFO have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in National Instrument 52-109 of the Canadian Securities Administrators and as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). The Company did not maintain effective segregation of duties over certain transactions leading to ineffective supervision and monitoring; and potential misappropriation of assets. This material weakness affects all significant accounts.

 

(b) Management's annual report on internal control over financial reporting.

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting of the Company. Internal controls over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

 

The Company's internal controls 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 US GAAP, 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.

 

A material weakness in internal controls is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the Company.

 

We note, however, that 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. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues including instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, our control systems may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected and could be material and require a restatement of our financial statements.

Table of Contents

 

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

 

Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company's internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2023 due to the following material weakness:

 

 

·

The Company’s staff does not have sufficient technical accounting knowledge relating to accounting for income taxes, complex financial instruments and US GAAP and relied on the assistance of its auditors and financial consultants in understanding the related accounting and disclosure requirements on these matters.

  

(c) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.

 

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s most recent fiscal period that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

Item 16.

 

A. Audit Committee Financial Expert

 

The Board of Directors has determined that Thomas F. Bugg qualifies as a financial expert. He is an independent director for this purpose.

 

B. Code of Ethics

 

Genoil has adopted a Code of Conduct that meets the requirements of the definition of a "Code of Ethics" as that term is defined in Item 16B(b) of Form 20-F. Genoil's Code of Conduct is applicable to all of its employees, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer. The Corporation does not currently employ a principal accounting officer.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Genoil Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Genoil Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Genoil Inc. as of December 31, 2023, 2022, and 2021 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Emphasis of Matter Regarding Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements referred to above have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s present financial situation raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Restatement

 

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company restated its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31 2021 to correct misstatements. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

 

Critical Audit Matter

 

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Table of Contents

 

Stock-based compensation – Refer to Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements

 

As described in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 included stock-based compensation of $3,095,169, consisting of price appreciation certificates of $2,626,959, stock options of $356,660, and common stock of $111,550. The determination of the fair value of the price appreciation certificates and the stock options was calculated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and required management to make significant estimates and assumptions and involved a high degree of subjectivity.

 

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of stock-based compensation is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgement by management when developing the valuations and (ii) a high degree of auditor judgement, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures relating to the valuations.

 

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included, among other things, evaluating the appropriateness of the assumptions used and the estimation methodology applied in the valuations.

Genoil INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Years Ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021

(Expressed in US Dollars)

 

1. REPORTING ENTITY AND GOING CONCERN

 

Genoil Inc. (“Genoil”) was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act in September 1996. The consolidated financial statements of Genoil Inc. comprise Genoil Inc. and its subsidiaries, Genoil USA Inc., Genoil Emirates LLC (“Emirates LLC”) and Two Hills Environmental Inc. (“Two Hills”) (collectively the “Company”). The Company is a technology development company focused on providing innovative solutions to the oil and gas industry through the use of proprietary technologies. The Company’s business activities are primarily directed to the development and commercialization of its hydro-conversion upgrader technology, which is designed to economically convert heavy crude oil into light synthetic crude. The Company is quoted on the OTC Markets under the symbol GNOLF. The Company’s registered address is care of Bennett Jones LLP, Suite 4500, 855 - 2nd Street SW, Calgary, Alberta.

 

These consolidated financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis. The Company reported net losses of $4,326,294, $3,644,275 and $2,610,076 for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company used funds in operating activities of $645,668, $465,092 and $421,664 for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company had a net working capital deficiency of $72,582, $11,007,083 and $9,062,350 at December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $135,320, $10,963,919 and $9,019,186 at December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on commercializing its technologies, achieving profitable operations and obtaining the necessary financing in order to develop these technologies further. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. The Company will continue to review the prospects of raising additional debt and equity financing to support its operations until such time that its operations become self-sustaining, to fund its research and development activities and to ensure the realization of its assets and discharge of its liabilities. While the Company is expanding its best efforts to achieve the above plans, there is no assurance that any such activity will generate sufficient funds for future operations.

 

The Company is not expected to be profitable during the ensuing twelve months and therefore must rely on securing additional funds from either issuance of debt or equity financing for cash consideration. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company received net proceeds of $651,088, $470,124 and $418,283, respectively, pursuant to financing activities.

 

Management, utilizing close personal relationships, has been successful in raising capital through periodic private placements of the Company’s common shares. Although these shares are subject to a “hold” period on the United States stock markets, the investors’ confidence in the undertakings of management, with respect to future positive market performance of the Company’s common stock, permits this avenue of financing to exist. External sources of debt financing are not available to the Company due to its precarious financial position.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue its operations. Such adjustments could be material.

(a). Restatement of previously issued financial statements

 

The Company has restated the consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and for the years then ended (which were included in the Company’s December 31, 2022 Form 20-F filed with the SEC on May 2, 2023) in order to correct the amount of operating expenses previously recorded from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022.

 

Periodically the Company transfers money to Lifschultz Enterprise Company LLC (“LEC”), an affiliated entity controlled by David Lifschultz (Genoil chief executive officer). Some of the transfers are loans to LEC and some of the transfers are Genoil reimbursements of Genoil expenses paid by LEC. As previously reported, the Company erroneously reported all transfers in 2021 and 2022 as loans to LEC. As restated, the Company has reclassified those transfers which were Genoil reimbursements of Genoil expenses paid by LEC ($104,494 in 2021 and $66,636 in 2022).

 

The effect of the restatement adjustments on the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2021 follows:

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.

 

(a)

Principles of Consolidation:

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and incorporate the financial statements of Genoil and entities controlled by it. Control is achieved where Genoil has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

 

Genoil has the following subsidiaries:

 

 

·

Genoil USA Inc., incorporated in Delaware, United States, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genoil.

 

·

Genoil Emirates LLC, incorporated in the United Arab Emirates, which will focus upon the fields of oil and water processing and treatment in the United Arab Emirates. Genoil Emirates LLC is jointly owned by S.B.K. Commercial Business Group LLC and Genoil. As of December 31, 2023, Emirates LLC had not yet commenced operations and holds no assets.

 

·

Two Hills Environmental Inc., incorporated in Canada and registered in Alberta, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genoil. Two Hills was formed to enter into the oilfield waste disposal industry by capitalizing upon its current undeveloped asset base. The asset base comprises a site under which three salt caverns have been formed in the Lotsberg Formation beneath the earth's surface. Such caverns are used in the oilfield disposal industry as a destination for oilfield wastes.

 

 
F-10

Table of Contents

 

The financial results of Genoil’s subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to align them with the policies adopted by Genoil.

 

Intercompany balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intercompany transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

 

(b)

Foreign currency translation

 

The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollar. The functional currency of Genoil and its subsidiaries is the United States Dollar. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Exchange gains and losses are reflected in income.

 

(c)

Use of estimates and judgments

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. By their nature, judgments, estimates and assumptions are subject to measurement uncertainty and changes in such judgments, estimates and assumptions in future periods could result in a material change in future financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Judgment is used in situations where there is a choice or assessment required by management. Estimates and underlying assumptions are required on an ongoing basis and revisions are recognized in the year in which such estimates are revised.

 

(d)

Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

(e)

Stock-based compensation

 

The Company grants common stock, stock options, and Price Appreciation Certificates to employees, directors, and consultants for various services rendered to the company. Share-based payments to these individuals are measured at the fair value of the securities issued and amortized over the vesting periods. The amount recognized as a share-based payment expense during a reporting period is adjusted to reflect the number of awards expected to vest. The offset to this recorded cost is to contributed surplus. A forfeiture rate is estimated on the grant date and is subsequently adjusted to reflect the actual number of options that vest. At the time of exercise, the consideration and related contributed surplus recognized to the exercise date are credited to share capital.

 

(f)

Income tax

 

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity.

 

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

 

 
F-11

Table of Contents

 

Deferred tax is recognized using the liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

 

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

 

(g)

Loss per share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the income (loss) attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is determined by adjusting the income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the effects of dilutive instruments such as stock options and warrants. The calculation assumes the proceeds on exercise of options and warrants are used to repurchase shares at the current market price. All options and warrants are anti-dilutive when the Company is in a loss position.

 

(h)

Recent accounting pronouncements:

 

The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements and their adoption has not had or is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or operations.

 

3. DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES

 

A number of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability. The Company is required to classify fair value measurements using a hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements.

 

The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

 

 

·

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

 

·

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and,

 

 

·

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

 

Cash and cash equivalents have been measured using level 1 inputs.

 

 
F-12

Table of Contents

 

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, due from related parties, trade and other payables, accrued interest payable, convertible notes, and due to related parties approximates their carrying value due to their short term to maturity.

 

The fair values of stock options and Price Appreciation Certificates are measured using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Measurement inputs include share price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, expected forfeiture rate (based on historic forfeitures), expected volatility (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for changes expected due to publicly available information), weighted average expected life of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behavior), expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate.

PRICE APPRECIATION CERTIFICATES

 

In lieu of compensation the Company has entered into agreements (“Price Appreciation Certificates”) with David Lifschultz and Bruce Abbott whereby, at the request of the executives, the Company agrees to pay the equivalent sum of the rise in the Company’s stock price based on the agreed upon number of shares, from a fixed per share amount to the average of the last 10 trading days (volume weighted average price). 

 

 
F-18

Table of Contents

 

The number of shares reflect a potential salary for the two executives that only exist if the price of the shares rise above the price appreciation base amount. The Company has no obligation to pay the two executives if the stock does not rise. The Company, at its exclusive option and benefit, can proceed with a private placement at the share price on the date of exercise and the executive will subscribe to this private placement for the entire sum advanced by the Company.

 

The Company accounts for these Price Appreciation Certificates as an equity instrument due to its exclusive option to require a subscription to the private placement as determined by the fair value of the instruments using a Black-Scholes pricing model.

 

At December 31, 2021, the 550,400,000 Price Appreciation Certificates outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.03 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 2.51 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $0.

 

At December 31, 2022, the 589,400,000 Price Appreciation Certificates outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.03 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 2.29 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $0.

 

At December 31, 2023, the 689,400,000 Price Appreciation Certificates outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.01 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 2.85 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $0.

 

OPTIONS

 

The Company has a stock option plan for directors, officers, employees and consultants. The term and vesting conditions of each option may be fixed by the Board of Directors when the option is granted, but the term cannot exceed 10 years. The maximum number of shares that may be reserved for issuance under the plan is fixed at 200,000,000. The maximum number of shares that may be optioned to any one person is 5% of the shares outstanding at the date of the grant. The options granted in 2021, 2022 and 2023 all vested immediately.

 

The fair value of stock options granted during 2023, 2022 and 2021 was estimated on the dates of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model based on the following assumptions:

On August 2, 2023, the Company modified options held by its current directors to reduce the exercise price of 17,000,000 options from $0.01 to $0.001; no other terms were modified. No expense was recorded for this modification since the fair value of the options pre modification and post modification were not different.

On August 16, 2023, the Company delivered 20,000,000 options (exercisable at $0.001 per share and expiring August 16, 2028) to a director in exchange for the cancellation of 20,000,000 Price Appreciation Certificates held by this director. No expense was recorded for this transaction since the fair value of the PAC’s pre-cancellation and the fair value of the options was not different.

 

At December 31, 2021, the 57,890,000 stock options outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.05 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 1.93 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $0.

 

At December 31, 2022, the 49,200,000 stock options outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.03 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 2.13 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $0.

 

At December 31, 2023, the 85,216,000 stock options outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.008 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 4.03 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $553,194.

 

10. INCOME TAXES

 

The provision for (benefit from) income taxes reflects the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes. The provision for (benefit from) income taxes differs from that computed by applying the statutory United States federal income tax rate of 21% for 2023, 2022, and 2021 to loss before income taxes. The sources of the differences are as follows:

Based on management’s present assessment, the Company has not yet determined that a deferred tax asset attributable to the future utilization of the net operating loss carryforward as of December 31, 2023 will be realized.  Accordingly, the Company has maintained a 100% valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset in the financial statements at December 31, 2023. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate.

 

Current United States income tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs.  Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

 

All tax years remain subject to examination by major taxing jurisdictions.

 

12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

From January 1, 2024 to May 15, 2024, the Company sold a total of 22,530,000 shares of common stock (and warrants) in private placements for proceeds of $225,300.

1. REPORTING ENTITY AND GOING CONCERN

 

Genoil Inc. (“Genoil”) was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act in September 1996. The consolidated financial statements of Genoil Inc. comprise Genoil Inc. and its subsidiaries, Genoil USA Inc., Genoil Emirates LLC (“Emirates LLC”) and Two Hills Environmental Inc. (“Two Hills”) (collectively the “Company”). The Company is a technology development company focused on providing innovative solutions to the oil and gas industry through the use of proprietary technologies. The Company’s business activities are primarily directed to the development and commercialization of its hydro-conversion upgrader technology, which is designed to economically convert heavy crude oil into light synthetic crude. The Company is quoted on the OTC Markets under the symbol GNOLF. The Company’s registered address is care of Bennett Jones LLP, Suite 4500, 855 - 2nd Street SW, Calgary, Alberta.

 

These consolidated financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis. The Company reported net losses of $4,326,294, $3,644,275 and $2,610,076 for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company used funds in operating activities of $645,668, $465,092 and $421,664 for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company had a net working capital deficiency of $72,582, $11,007,083 and $9,062,350 at December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $135,320, $10,963,919 and $9,019,186 at December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on commercializing its technologies, achieving profitable operations and obtaining the necessary financing in order to develop these technologies further. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. The Company will continue to review the prospects of raising additional debt and equity financing to support its operations until such time that its operations become self-sustaining, to fund its research and development activities and to ensure the realization of its assets and discharge of its liabilities. While the Company is expanding its best efforts to achieve the above plans, there is no assurance that any such activity will generate sufficient funds for future operations.

 

The Company is not expected to be profitable during the ensuing twelve months and therefore must rely on securing additional funds from either issuance of debt or equity financing for cash consideration. During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company received net proceeds of $651,088, $470,124 and $418,283, respectively, pursuant to financing activities.

 

Management, utilizing close personal relationships, has been successful in raising capital through periodic private placements of the Company’s common shares. Although these shares are subject to a “hold” period on the United States stock markets, the investors’ confidence in the undertakings of management, with respect to future positive market performance of the Company’s common stock, permits this avenue of financing to exist. External sources of debt financing are not available to the Company due to its precarious financial position.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue its operations. Such adjustments could be material.

(a). Restatement of previously issued financial statements

 

The Company has restated the consolidated Financial Statements at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 and for the years then ended (which were included in the Company’s December 31, 2022 Form 20-F filed with the SEC on May 2, 2023) in order to correct the amount of operating expenses previously recorded from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2022.

 

Periodically the Company transfers money to Lifschultz Enterprise Company LLC (“LEC”), an affiliated entity controlled by David Lifschultz (Genoil chief executive officer). Some of the transfers are loans to LEC and some of the transfers are Genoil reimbursements of Genoil expenses paid by LEC. As previously reported, the Company erroneously reported all transfers in 2021 and 2022 as loans to LEC. As restated, the Company has reclassified those transfers which were Genoil reimbursements of Genoil expenses paid by LEC ($104,494 in 2021 and $66,636 in 2022).

Dec. 31, 2023
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.

 

(a)

Principles of Consolidation:

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and incorporate the financial statements of Genoil and entities controlled by it. Control is achieved where Genoil has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

 

Genoil has the following subsidiaries:

 

 

·

Genoil USA Inc., incorporated in Delaware, United States, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genoil.

 

·

Genoil Emirates LLC, incorporated in the United Arab Emirates, which will focus upon the fields of oil and water processing and treatment in the United Arab Emirates. Genoil Emirates LLC is jointly owned by S.B.K. Commercial Business Group LLC and Genoil. As of December 31, 2023, Emirates LLC had not yet commenced operations and holds no assets.

 

·

Two Hills Environmental Inc., incorporated in Canada and registered in Alberta, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genoil. Two Hills was formed to enter into the oilfield waste disposal industry by capitalizing upon its current undeveloped asset base. The asset base comprises a site under which three salt caverns have been formed in the Lotsberg Formation beneath the earth's surface. Such caverns are used in the oilfield disposal industry as a destination for oilfield wastes.

The financial results of Genoil’s subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to align them with the policies adopted by Genoil.

 

Intercompany balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intercompany transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

 

(b)

Foreign currency translation

 

The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollar. The functional currency of Genoil and its subsidiaries is the United States Dollar. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Exchange gains and losses are reflected in income.

 

(c)

Use of estimates and judgments

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. By their nature, judgments, estimates and assumptions are subject to measurement uncertainty and changes in such judgments, estimates and assumptions in future periods could result in a material change in future financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Judgment is used in situations where there is a choice or assessment required by management. Estimates and underlying assumptions are required on an ongoing basis and revisions are recognized in the year in which such estimates are revised.

 

(d)

Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company considers all short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

(e)

Stock-based compensation

 

The Company grants common stock, stock options, and Price Appreciation Certificates to employees, directors, and consultants for various services rendered to the company. Share-based payments to these individuals are measured at the fair value of the securities issued and amortized over the vesting periods. The amount recognized as a share-based payment expense during a reporting period is adjusted to reflect the number of awards expected to vest. The offset to this recorded cost is to contributed surplus. A forfeiture rate is estimated on the grant date and is subsequently adjusted to reflect the actual number of options that vest. At the time of exercise, the consideration and related contributed surplus recognized to the exercise date are credited to share capital.

 

(f)

Income tax

 

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity.

 

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognized using the liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

 

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

 

(g)

Loss per share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the income (loss) attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is determined by adjusting the income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the effects of dilutive instruments such as stock options and warrants. The calculation assumes the proceeds on exercise of options and warrants are used to repurchase shares at the current market price. All options and warrants are anti-dilutive when the Company is in a loss position.

 

(h)

Recent accounting pronouncements:

 

The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements and their adoption has not had or is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or operations.

DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES

DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES  
DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES

3. DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES

 

A number of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability. The Company is required to classify fair value measurements using a hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements.

 

The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

 

 

·

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

 

·

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and,

 

 

·

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

 

Cash and cash equivalents have been measured using level 1 inputs.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, due from related parties, trade and other payables, accrued interest payable, convertible notes, and due to related parties approximates their carrying value due to their short term to maturity.

 

The fair values of stock options and Price Appreciation Certificates are measured using the Black-Scholes pricing model. Measurement inputs include share price on measurement date, exercise price of the instrument, expected forfeiture rate (based on historic forfeitures), expected volatility (based on weighted average historic volatility adjusted for changes expected due to publicly available information), weighted average expected life of the instruments (based on historical experience and general option holder behavior), expected dividends, and the risk-free interest rate.

PRICE APPRECIATION CERTIFICATES

 

In lieu of compensation the Company has entered into agreements (“Price Appreciation Certificates”) with David Lifschultz and Bruce Abbott whereby, at the request of the executives, the Company agrees to pay the equivalent sum of the rise in the Company’s stock price based on the agreed upon number of shares, from a fixed per share amount to the average of the last 10 trading days (volume weighted average price). 

The number of shares reflect a potential salary for the two executives that only exist if the price of the shares rise above the price appreciation base amount. The Company has no obligation to pay the two executives if the stock does not rise. The Company, at its exclusive option and benefit, can proceed with a private placement at the share price on the date of exercise and the executive will subscribe to this private placement for the entire sum advanced by the Company.

 

The Company accounts for these Price Appreciation Certificates as an equity instrument due to its exclusive option to require a subscription to the private placement as determined by the fair value of the instruments using a Black-Scholes pricing model.

 

At December 31, 2021, the 550,400,000 Price Appreciation Certificates outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.03 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 2.51 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $0.

 

At December 31, 2022, the 589,400,000 Price Appreciation Certificates outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.03 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 2.29 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $0.

 

At December 31, 2023, the 689,400,000 Price Appreciation Certificates outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.01 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 2.85 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $0.

 

OPTIONS

 

The Company has a stock option plan for directors, officers, employees and consultants. The term and vesting conditions of each option may be fixed by the Board of Directors when the option is granted, but the term cannot exceed 10 years. The maximum number of shares that may be reserved for issuance under the plan is fixed at 200,000,000. The maximum number of shares that may be optioned to any one person is 5% of the shares outstanding at the date of the grant. The options granted in 2021, 2022 and 2023 all vested immediately.

 

The fair value of stock options granted during 2023, 2022 and 2021 was estimated on the dates of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model based on the following assumptions:

On August 2, 2023, the Company modified options held by its current directors to reduce the exercise price of 17,000,000 options from $0.01 to $0.001; no other terms were modified. No expense was recorded for this modification since the fair value of the options pre modification and post modification were not different.

On August 16, 2023, the Company delivered 20,000,000 options (exercisable at $0.001 per share and expiring August 16, 2028) to a director in exchange for the cancellation of 20,000,000 Price Appreciation Certificates held by this director. No expense was recorded for this transaction since the fair value of the PAC’s pre-cancellation and the fair value of the options was not different.

 

At December 31, 2021, the 57,890,000 stock options outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.05 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 1.93 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $0.

 

At December 31, 2022, the 49,200,000 stock options outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.03 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 2.13 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $0.

 

At December 31, 2023, the 85,216,000 stock options outstanding had a weighted average exercise price of $0.008 per share, a weighted average remaining contractual life of 4.03 years, and an aggregate intrinsic value of $553,194.

The provision for (benefit from) income taxes reflects the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes. The provision for (benefit from) income taxes differs from that computed by applying the statutory United States federal income tax rate of 21% for 2023, 2022, and 2021 to loss before income taxes.

Based on management’s present assessment, the Company has not yet determined that a deferred tax asset attributable to the future utilization of the net operating loss carryforward as of December 31, 2023 will be realized.  Accordingly, the Company has maintained a 100% valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset in the financial statements at December 31, 2023. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate.

 

Current United States income tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs.  Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

 

All tax years remain subject to examination by major taxing jurisdictions.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)

Dec. 31, 2023
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES  
Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and incorporate the financial statements of Genoil and entities controlled by it. Control is achieved where Genoil has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

 

Genoil has the following subsidiaries:

 

 

·

Genoil USA Inc., incorporated in Delaware, United States, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genoil.

 

·

Genoil Emirates LLC, incorporated in the United Arab Emirates, which will focus upon the fields of oil and water processing and treatment in the United Arab Emirates. Genoil Emirates LLC is jointly owned by S.B.K. Commercial Business Group LLC and Genoil. As of December 31, 2023, Emirates LLC had not yet commenced operations and holds no assets.

 

·

Two Hills Environmental Inc., incorporated in Canada and registered in Alberta, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Genoil. Two Hills was formed to enter into the oilfield waste disposal industry by capitalizing upon its current undeveloped asset base. The asset base comprises a site under which three salt caverns have been formed in the Lotsberg Formation beneath the earth's surface. Such caverns are used in the oilfield disposal industry as a destination for oilfield wastes.

The financial results of Genoil’s subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to align them with the policies adopted by Genoil.

 

Intercompany balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intercompany transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

Foreign currency translation

The reporting currency of the Company is the United States Dollar. The functional currency of Genoil and its subsidiaries is the United States Dollar. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Exchange gains and losses are reflected in income.

Use of estimates and judgments

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. By their nature, judgments, estimates and assumptions are subject to measurement uncertainty and changes in such judgments, estimates and assumptions in future periods could result in a material change in future financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Judgment is used in situations where there is a choice or assessment required by management. Estimates and underlying assumptions are required on an ongoing basis and revisions are recognized in the year in which such estimates are revised.

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company grants common stock, stock options, and Price Appreciation Certificates to employees, directors, and consultants for various services rendered to the company. Share-based payments to these individuals are measured at the fair value of the securities issued and amortized over the vesting periods. The amount recognized as a share-based payment expense during a reporting period is adjusted to reflect the number of awards expected to vest. The offset to this recorded cost is to contributed surplus. A forfeiture rate is estimated on the grant date and is subsequently adjusted to reflect the actual number of options that vest. At the time of exercise, the consideration and related contributed surplus recognized to the exercise date are credited to share capital.

Income Tax

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognized directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in equity.

 

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is recognized using the liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognized on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination. In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill. Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

 

A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Loss per share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the income (loss) attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is determined by adjusting the income (loss) attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the effects of dilutive instruments such as stock options and warrants. The calculation assumes the proceeds on exercise of options and warrants are used to repurchase shares at the current market price. All options and warrants are anti-dilutive when the Company is in a loss position.

Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements and their adoption has not had or is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or operations.
