1. Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

SusGlobal Energy Corp. ("SusGlobal") was formed by articles of amalgamation on December 3, 2014, in the Province of Ontario, Canada and its executive office is in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. SusGlobal, a company in the start-up stages and Commandcredit Corp. ("Commandcredit"), an inactive Canadian public company, amalgamated to continue business under the name of SusGlobal Energy Corp.

On May 23, 2017, SusGlobal filed an Application for Authorization to continue in another Jurisdiction with the Ministry of Government Services in Ontario and a certificate of corporate domestication and certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware under which it changed its jurisdiction of incorporation from Ontario to the State of Delaware (the "Domestication"). In connection with the Domestication each of the currently issued and outstanding common shares were automatically converted on a one-for-one basis into common shares compliant with the laws of the state of Delaware (the "Shares"). As a result of the Domestication, pursuant to Section 388 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"), SusGlobal continued its existence under the DGCL as a corporation incorporated in the State of Delaware. The business, assets and liabilities of SusGlobal and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, as well as its principal location and fiscal year, were the same immediately after the Domestication as they were immediately prior to the Domestication. SusGlobal filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 to register the Shares and this registration statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 12, 2017.

On December 11, 2018, the Company began trading on the OTCQB venture market exchange, under the ticker symbol SNRG.

SusGlobal is a renewables company focused on acquiring, developing and monetizing a global portfolio of proprietary technologies in the waste to energy and regenerative products application.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of SusGlobal and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, SusGlobal Energy Canada Corp. ("SECC"), SusGlobal Energy Canada I Ltd. ("SGECI"), SusGlobal Energy Belleville Ltd. ("SGEBL"), SusGlobal Energy Hamilton Ltd. ("SEHL") and 1684567 Ontario Inc. ("1684567") (together, the "Company"), have been prepared following generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("US GAAP") for interim financial information and the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC") instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of SEC Regulation S-X, and are expressed in United States Dollars. The Company's functional currency is the Canadian Dollar ("C$"). In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

 

2. Going Concern

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next twelve months.

The Company incurred a net loss of $1,525,744 (2023-$1,035,172) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and as at that date had a working capital deficit of $31,002,937 (December 31, 2023-$30,390,423) and an accumulated deficit of $40,096,275 (December 31, 2023-$38,570,531) and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business.

On November 3, 2023, the funds previously held in escrow, which related to a full and final mutual release of all obligations owing to PACE, including accrued interest, in the amount of $924,500 (C$1,250,000), were released to PACE (now Alterna) and Alterna released all security it held to the Company. Prior to this full and final mutual release the obligations owing to PACE, including accrued interest were $3,930,207 (C$5,197,999). The Company was successful in extending the maturity date on one of its 1st mortgages, which had a maturity date of December 1, 2023, to June 1, 2024 and transferred another 1st mortgage, originally a vendor take-back mortgage with a maturity date of August 17, 2023 to a new mortgage with a new maturity date of December 14, 2024. On January 10, 2024, the Company stopped receiving waste at its waste processing and composting operation in Belleville, Ontario Canada, to address several non-compliance matters addressed in orders from the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (the "MECP"). The Company continues to seek investors to raise funds through debt or equity.

2. Going Concern, (continued)

These factors cast substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, which is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to further the development of its business, satisfy its obligations to its creditors, and upon achieving profitable operations through revenue growth. There is no assurance of funding being available or available on acceptable terms. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result if the Company was unable to continue as a going concern.

 

3. Significant Accounting Policies

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 and their accompanying notes.

 

4. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

The following section provides a description of new accounting pronouncements ("Accounting Standard Update" or "ASU") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") that are applicable to the Company.

There were no new accounting pronouncements issued and not yet adopted that were expected to have a material impact on the Company's interim condensed consolidated financial position or results of operations in the current or future periods.

 

5. Financial Instruments

The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, such as cash, trade receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amounts of the long-term debt, obligations under capital lease, convertible promissory notes and loans payable to related parties also approximates fair value due to their market interest rate.

Interest, Credit and Concentration Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk borne by an interest-bearing asset or liability as a result of fluctuations in interest rates. Financial assets and financial liabilities with variable interest rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk.

The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk on its long-term debt as at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty's inability to perform its payment obligations. As at March 31, 2024, the Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to cash and trade receivables. As at March 31, 2024, the Company's cash was held with a reputable Canadian chartered bank and a United States of America bank.

With regards to credit risk with customers, the customers' credit evaluation is reviewed by management and account monitoring procedures are used to minimize the risk of loss. The Company believes that no additional credit risk beyond amounts provided for by the allowance for doubtful accounts are inherent in accounts receivable. As at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there was no allowance for doubtful accounts.

5. Financial Instruments, (continued)

As at March 31, 2024, the Company is exposed to concentration risk as it had one customer (December 31, 2023-three customers) representing greater than 5% of total trade receivables and one customer (December 31, 2023-three customers) represented 89% (December 31, 2023-97%) of trade receivables. The Company had certain customers whose revenue individually represented 10% or more of the Company's total revenue. These customers accounted for 91% (43%, 27% and 21%) (March 31, 2023-67%; 22% and 45%) of total revenue.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet its obligations as they fall due. The Company takes steps to ensure it has sufficient working capital and available sources of financing to meet future cash requirements for capital programs and operations. Management is considering all its options to repay its creditors. Refer also to going concern, note 2.

The Company actively monitors its liquidity to ensure that its cash flows and working capital are adequate to support its financial obligations and the Company's capital programs. To continue operations, the Company will need to raise capital, and complete the refinancing of its real property and organic waste processing and composting facility (the "Belleville Facility"). There is no assurance of funding being available or available on acceptable terms. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown. Refer also to going concern, note 2.

Currency Risk

Although the Company's functional currency is the C$, the Company realizes a portion of its expenses in United States Dollars ("$"). Consequently, certain assets and liabilities are exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. As at March 31, 2024, $3,287,681 (December 31, 2023-$3,168,407) of the Company's net monetary liabilities were denominated in $. The Company has not entered into any hedging transactions to reduce the exposure to currency risk.

 

6. Prepaid Expenses and Deposits

Included in prepaid expenses and deposits are costs, primarily for professional services to be expensed as stock-based compensation after March 31, 2024, in the amount of $162,000 (December 31, 2023-$216,000). The professional services disclosed under stock-based compensation related to general corporate consulting, marketing, branding and commercialization to market, and general investor relations services. The common shares issued for professional services are also noted under capital stock, note 14. The balance consists of costs and deposits for services expiring or relating to periods after March 31, 2024, including insurance, rent and professional services retainers.

    $ 10,653,510   $ 10,519,824  

The convertible promissory notes are accounted for under the fair value option in the consolidated balance sheets. The actual principal outstanding on the balance of the notes as at March 31, 2024 is $7,728,440 including accrued interest of $1,518,280 (2023-$7,442,600, including accrued interest of $1,232,440).

(a) On October 28 and 29, 2021, the Company entered into two securities purchase agreement (the "October 2021 SPAs) with two investors (the "October 2021 Investors") pursuant to which the Company issued to the October 2021 Investors two 15% OID unsecured convertible promissory notes (the "October 2021 Investor Notes") in the principal amount of $1,765,118. The October 2021 Investor Notes are convertible, with accrued interest, from time to time on notice of a liquidity event (a "Liquidity Event"). A Liquidity Event is defined as a public offering of the Company's common stock resulting in the listing for trading of the common stock on any one of a number of exchanges. The October 2021 Investor Notes can be prepaid prior to maturity for an amount of 120% of the prepayment amount.

The maturity date of the October 2021 Investor Notes is the earlier of (i) July 28 and 29, 2022 and (ii) the occurrence of a Liquidity Event, as described above (the "Maturity Date"). Upon the occurrence of a Liquidity Event, the October 2021 Investors are entitled to convert all or a portion of their October 2021 Investor Notes including any accrued and unpaid interest at a conversion price (the "Conversion Price") equal to 70% (representing a 30% discount) multiplied by the price per share of the Common Stock at the public offering associated with the Liquidity Event.

Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the interest rate on the October 2021 Investor Notes will immediately accrue at 24% per annum and be paid in cash monthly to the October 2021 Investors, until the default is cured. And the Conversion Price will be reset to 85% of the lowest volume weighted average price for the ten consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is immediately prior to the applicable conversion date.

On May 11, 2022, the holder of the October 29, 2021, investor note, provided an amendment for an optional conversion of his investor notes. The conversion price was amended to be (i) the product of the Liquidity Event price multiplied by the discount of 35% (previously 30%) or (2) the greater of (i) the product of the closing price per share of the Company's Common Stock as reported by the applicable trading market on the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date multiplied by the discount (35%) or $1.70 multiplied by the discount (35%), provided that in the event of a conversion, of investor note, at a time that a Liquidity Event shall not have previously occurred and be continuing, the conversion price for such conversion shall be as provided in the amendment.

On August 16, 2022, the Company was sent a notice of default from one of the October 2021 Investors, whose investor note was issued on October 29, 2021. On September 15, 2022, the Company and the investor of the October 2021 investor note entered into an amendment to the October 2021 investor note which served as a cure to the previously issued default notice.

Pursuant to the September 15, 2022 amendment, the Company and the October 29, 2021 investor, agreed that the outstanding principal amount of the October 29, 2021 investor note would increase by 10% to $1,618,100 from the previously issued principal amount of $1,471,000. The new agreed upon maturity date was changed to November 15, 2022, subject to certain conditions and the maturity date would automatically be extended to January 15, 2023, provided that the October 29, 2021 investor does not notify the Company in writing prior to the maturity date that the automatic extension of the maturity date has been cancelled. In connection with this amendment, the Company agreed to use its best efforts to promptly facilitate the conversion of the October 29, 2021 investor note into shares of the Company's common stock.

11. Convertible Promissory Notes, (continued)

As a result of the default on November 15, 2022, the Company was informed that the October 29, 2021 investor will now be accruing interest at the default rate of 24% per annum. As at March 31, 2024, this note has a principal balance of $1,722,911 (December 31, 2023-$1,645,337), including $422,911 (December 31, 2023-$345,337) of accrued interest. In addition, on October 4, 2023, an action was launched by the October 29, 2021 investor, who claimed he was owed $1,300,000 plus accrued interest which is after conversions of $318,100 during 2022 and 2023 and includes accrued interest of $422,911 as at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023-$345,337). The Company has disclosed the fair value of this convertible promissory note as $2,495,508 (December 31, 2023-$2,404,558). The Company intends to repay the balance owed when it is financially able to do so.

Further, the October 29, 2021 investor agreed not to convert more than $100,000 in any one conversion notice and the October 29, 2021 investor agreed not to issue an additional conversion notice unless and until any previously issued conversion shares have been sold by the October 29, 2021 investor or exceed 10% of the daily trading volume in selling the shares of the Company's common stock.

On September 21, 2022 and November 10, 2022, the October 29, 2021 investor issued conversion notices to the Company and the Company issued 372,090 common shares at conversion prices ranging from $0.1885 to $0.2339 per share respectively, on the conversion of $25,000 and $50,000 respectively, of the October 29, 2021 investor note, having a fair market value of $97,129 on conversion. The October 29, 2021 investor has not informed the Company of an extension to the current maturity date but continued to issue conversion notices to the Company prior to the default notice of June 8, 2023, noted below.

On December 22, 2022, the October 28, 2021 investor, whose October 28, 2021 investor note had a previous Principal Amount of $294,118 and a maturity date of July 28, 2022, provided the Company with an amendment whereby the maturity date of the October 28, 2021 investor note was extended to the earlier of July 28, 2023 or the occurrence of a Liquidity Event. In addition, the Company agreed that the investor could convert his October 28, 2021, investor note into shares of the Company's common stock at any time at the investor's option. Previously, the October 28, 2021 Note was only convertible upon the occurrence of the Liquidity Event. The Company also agreed to change the conversion price to be the lowest trading bid price of the Company's common stock on the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date multiplied with a 35% discount to that lowest price.

Previously, the conversion price was a 30% discount to the price at which the securities were sold in connection with the Liquidity Event. In consideration for the extension of the maturity date, the Company agreed to issue the investor 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company used the with-and-without method to allocate the proceeds between the convertible promissory note and the common shares. As a result, all the proceeds were allocated to the convertible promissory note and $nil to the common shares. As a result of the default on July 28, 2023, the Company is now incurring interest at the default rate of 24%. As at March 31, 2024, this note had a principal balance of $374,429 (December 31, 2023-$355,205) including accrued interest of $52,269 (December 31, 2023-$33,045). The Company has disclosed the fair value of this convertible promissory note as $516,247 (December 31, 2023-$494,037).

On June 8, 2023, the October 29, 2021 investor's counsel sent the Company a notice of default on the October 29, 2021 investor note and the March 2022 Investor Notes, described below. The default was caused by the holders of these promissory notes not being able to receive shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 (the "Common Stock") pursuant to the conversion terms of these promissory notes. All cure periods available pursuant to the promissory notes had expired prior to June 8, 2023. The October 29, 2021, investor note had a principal balance of $1,300,000 before the default and the March 2022 Investor Notes, whose principal balance totaled $2,640,000 prior to the notice of default, increased by 20% or $528,000 in total as a result of the notice of default. In addition, default interest at the rate of 24% per annum continues to accrue on the October 29, 2021 investor note and the March 2022 Investor Notes.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the October 29, 2021 investor provided the Company with notices of conversion to convert in total $243,100 of his investor note having a fair value on conversion of $374,000 for 1,650,709 of common shares of the Company. The conversion prices per share for the year ended December 31, 2023 ranged from $0.1294 to $0.3400.

The Company initially reserved 1,905,000 of its authorized and unissued Common Stock (the "October 2021 Reserved Amount"), free from pre-emptive rights, to be issued upon conversion of the October 2021 Investor Notes.

11. Convertible Promissory Notes, (continued)

(b) On March 3 and 7, 2022, the Company executed two unsecured convertible promissory notes with two investors (the "March 2022 Investors"), who purchased 25% original issue discount (the "OID") unsecured convertible promissory notes (the "The March 2022 Investor Notes") in the aggregate principal amount totaling $2,000,000 (the "Principal Amount") with such Principal Amount convertible into shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock") from time to time triggered by the occurrence of certain events. The March 2022 Investor Notes carried an OID totaling $500,000 which is included in the principal balance of the Notes. The funds were received on March 7, 2022 and March 11, 2022 in the total amount of $1,425,000, net of the OID and professional fees.

The maturity date of the Notes is the earlier of (i) June 3 and 7, 2022, and (ii) the occurrence of a Liquidity Event (as defined in the Notes) (the "Maturity Date"). The final payment of the Principal Amount (and default interest, if any) shall be paid by the Company to the Investors on the Maturity Date. On an event of default, the principal amount of the March 2020 Investor Notes will increase to 120% of their original principal amounts. The Investors are entitled to, following an event of default, (as defined in the March 2022 Investor Notes) to convert all or any amount of the Principal Amount and any interest accruing at the default interest rate of 24% per annum into Common Stock, at a conversion price (the "Conversion Price") equal to 70% (representing a 30% discount) multiplied by the price per share of the Common Stock at any national security exchange or over-the-counter marketplace for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the March 2022 Investors' notice of conversion.

On May 11, 2022, the holder of the March 3, 2022 Investor Note and on May 13, 2022, the holder of the March 7, 2022 Investor Note, each provided an amendment for an optional conversion of their investor notes. The conversion price was amended to be (i) the product of the Liquidity Event price multiplied by the discount of 35% (previously 30%) or (2) the greater of (i) the product of the closing price per share of the Company's Common Stock as reported by the applicable trading market on the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date multiplied by the discount (35%) or $1.70 multiplied by the discount (35%), provided that in the event of a conversion, of his investor note, at a time that a Liquidity Event shall not have previously occurred and be continuing, the conversion price for such conversion shall be as provided in amendment for each.

Further, on June 29, 2022, the March 2022 Investors revised their March 2022 Investor Notes, to extend the maturity date to August 15, 2022 and increase the principal amount of each of the March 2022 Investor Notes by twenty percent (20%), from a Principal Amount of $2,000,000 to $2,400,000. In addition, the Company agreed to issue 100,000 common shares to the March 2022 Investor. These restricted shares of the Company's common stock will survive a reverse stock split prior to listing. The common shares were issued on July 11, 2022. The restructurings were accounted for as extinguishments in 2022 as they were renegotiated after maturity.

On August 16, 2022, the Company was sent notices of default from the March 2022 Investors. And, on September 15, 2022, the Company and the March 2022 Investors entered into an amendment to the March 2022 Investor Notes which served as a cure to the previously issued default notices.

Pursuant to the September 15, 2022 amendment, the Company and the March 2022 Investors agreed that the outstanding principal amount totaling $2,400,000 would increase by 10% to $2,640,000. The new agreed upon maturity date was now November 15, 2022, subject to certain conditions and the maturity date was extended to January 15, 2023. In connection with this amendment, the Company agreed to use its best efforts to promptly facilitate the conversion of the March 2022 Investor Notes into shares of the Company's common stock only after the October 29, 2021 investor note, as described under paragraph (a) above, has been fully converted.

Further, in the event that the October 29, 2021 investor note has been fully converted and the conversion shares sold, thereafter, the March 2022 Investor Notes may both be converted at the March 2022 Investors' discretion on a pari-passu basis, provided, however, that no conversion shall exceed $50,000 for each of the March 2022 Investor Notes and each of the March 2022 Investors shall not sell more than 5% of the daily trading volume in selling the Company's shares of common stock.

11. Convertible Promissory Notes, (continued)

As noted above, on June 8, 2023 the counsel for the March 2022 Investors provided the Company with a notice of default. This resulted in the principal balance of the March 2022 Investor Notes increasing in principal from $2,640,000 in total to $3,168,000, in total. In addition, interest is accruing at the rate of 24% per annum. As at March 31, 2024, the principal balance of the March 2022 investor notes totaled $4,211,100 (December 31, 2023- $4,022,058), including accrued interest of $1,043,100 (December 31, 2023-$854,058) is included in the convertible promissory notes balance

(c) On June 23, 2022, the Company executed one convertible promissory note (the "June 2022 Investor Note") with an investor (the "June 2022 Investor") in the amount of $1,200,000 bearing interest at 10% per annum and having an OID of 10%. The maturity date of the June 2022 Investor Note is the earlier of December 23, 2022 and the date of the Company's uplist to a national securities exchange. The proceeds from the June 2022 Investor Note were used to repay this investor's June 2021 Investor Note and their December 2021 Investor Note which matured June 16, 2022 and June 2, 2022 respectively, plus accrued interest. The net proceeds, after repaying the December 2021 Investor Note and the June 2021 Investor Note with accrued interest and related disbursements totaled approximately $204,000. The net proceeds were received on June 28, 2022. In addition, the Company issued 1,333,333 common shares to the June 2022 Investor on June 29, 2022 which have been included in the determination of the extinguishment gain and recognized at fair value. The restructuring was accounted for as extinguishments as it was renegotiated after maturity.

The June 2022 Investor may convert the principal amount and any accrued but unpaid interest into the Company's common stock from time to time following an event of default ('Event of Default"), as defined in the June 2022 Investor Note, with interest accruing at the default interest rate of 15% per annum from the Event of Default, at a conversion price (the "Conversion Price") equal to the lesser of 90% (representing a 10% discount) multiplied by the price per share of the Common Stock at the public offering associated with the Event of Default.

On December 29, 2022, the Company and the investor agreed to extend the maturity date to the earlier of June 23, 2023, or the occurrence of a Liquidity Event. In consideration for the extension of the maturity date, the Company agreed to: (i) increase the principal amount to $1,320,000.00 (the "Increased Principal Amount"); (ii) that interest is payable on the Increased Principal Amount and that such interest (but not any default interest that becomes due) is paid in full and in advance by the Company issuing to the June 2022 Investor 450,000 shares of the Company's common stock and (iii) issue to the June 2022 Investor 666,667 shares of the Company's common stock (the "Modification Fee Shares"). The parties agreed that the Modification Fee Shares served as an increase in the amount of commitment fee shares issued to the investor pursuant to the securities purchase agreement signed by the Company and the June 2022 Investor on June 23, 2022, in connection with the issuance of the June 2022 Investor Note. The Company used the with-and-without method to allocate the proceeds between the convertible promissory note and the common shares. As a result, all the proceeds were allocated to the convertible promissory note and $nil to the common shares.

On June 29, 2023, the June 2022 Investor provided a 45-day extension of the June 2022 Investor Note in exchange for an increase in the principal balance of the June 2022 Investor Note of $100,000, from $1,320,000 to $1,420,000.

The Company initially reserved 8,000,000 of its authorized and unissued Common Stock (the "June 2022 Reserved Amount"), free from pre-emptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of the June 2022 Investor Note.

Pursuant to the terms of the security purchase agreements for the convertible promissory notes described above, for so long as the noted investors own any shares of Common Stock issued upon the conversion of the applicable investor notes, the Company has covenanted to secure and maintain the listing of such shares of Common Stock. The Company is also subject to certain customary negative covenants under the investor notes and the security purchase agreements, including but not limited to the requirement to maintain its corporate existence and assets, require registration of or stockholder approval for the investor notes or the Common Stock upon the conversion of the applicable investor notes.

11. Convertible Promissory Notes, (continued)

The convertible promissory notes described above, contain certain representations, warranties, covenants and events of default including if the Company is delinquent in its periodic report filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission which would increase the amount of the principal and interest rates under the convertible promissory notes in the event of such defaults. In the event of a default, at the option of the applicable investor and in their sole discretion, the applicable investor may consider any of their convertible promissory notes immediately due and payable.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company issued nil (2023-1,049,413) common shares on the conversions of a convertible promissory note in the amount of $nil (2023-$143,100) having a fair value on conversion of $nil (2023-$199,641) at conversion prices ranging from $nil to $nil (2023-$0.1294 to $0.1442) per share. This resulted in a loss on conversion of $nil ($20,513), disclosed under note 16, other (expense) income.

Refer also to going concern, note 2.

Fair value option for the convertible promissory notes

The Company is eligible to elect the fair value option under ASC 825, Financial Instruments and bypass analysis of the potential embedded derivative features described above. The Company believes that the fair value option better reflects the underlying economics of the convertible promissory notes issued after December 31, 2020. As a result, the 2021 and 2022 promissory notes were recorded at fair value upon issuance and subsequently remeasured at each reporting date until settled or converted. The Company recognized the notes initially at fair value, which exceeded the proceeds received resulting in a day one loss that has been recognized in net loss.

Any transaction and other issuance costs have been expensed as incurred. Subsequently, the Company recognizes the notes at fair value with changes in net loss.

Gains and losses attributable to changes in credit risk were insignificant during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company recognized a loss of $nil (2023-$nil) at the time of issuance of the convertible promissory notes and an additional loss of $133,686 (2023- gain of $33,326) attributed to the change in fair value of the convertible promissory notes for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

 

12. Fair Value Measurement

The following table presents information about the Company's financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation:

    Fair value as at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 Using:  
    Level 3     March 31, 2024     December 31, 2023  
Assets: $     $ -   $ -  
Liabilities:                  
Convertible promissory notes         10,653,510     10,519,824  
  $     $ 10,653,510   $ 10,519,824  

During each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3. There were no financial assets or other liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The following table summarizes the change in Level 3 financial instruments during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

12. Fair Value Measurement, (continued)

    March 31, 2024     December 31, 2023  
Fair value at December 31, 2023 $ 10,519,824   $ 7,796,433  
Amendments   -     2,526,260  
Conversions/repayments   -     (336,578 )
Mark to market   133,686     533,709  
Fair value at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 $ 10,653,510   $ 10,519,824  

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value of the convertible promissory notes at issuance and subsequent financial reporting dates was estimated based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represent level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of the convertible promissory notes at issuance and at each reporting period was estimated based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company used a scenario-based binomial model to estimate the fair value of the convertible promissory notes. The model determines the fair value from a market participant's perspective by evaluating the payouts under hold, convert, or call decisions. The most significant estimates and assumptions used as inputs are those concerning type, timing and probability of specific scenario outcomes. Specifically, the Company assigned a probability of default, which would increase the required payout as described in Note 12 and calculated the fair value under each scenario.

At the issuance dates of the convertible promissory notes, the probability of default ("PD") was assumed to be 75% (December 31, 2023-75%), except for those which were amended post maturity, which were assumed to be 100%. The probability of default was determined in reference to a 1-year PD rate for a 'CCC+' rating at issuance, and a combination of 'CC' and 'CCC' credit ratings at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Increasing (decreasing) the probability of default would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Other significant unobservable inputs include the expected volatility and the credit spread. The expected volatility was based on the historical volatility over a look-back period that was consistent with the balance-remaining term of the instruments. A value of 120.3% (December 31, 2023- range of 162.4% to 164.8%) was used for the expected volatility. The discount for lack of marketability was determined using a range of option pricing methodologies using the remaining restriction term corresponding to each instrument on the relevant valuation date. The credit spread was determined in reference to credit yields of companies with similar credit risk at the date of valuation. A premium of 10% (December 31, 2023-10%) was added to the credit spread as an instrument specific adjustment to reflect the Company's risk of default. A value of 23.07% (December 31, 2023-22.95%) was used for the credit spread.

f) The Company was assigned the land lease on the purchase of certain assets of Astoria Organic Matters Ltd., and Astoria Organic Matters Canada LP on September 15, 2017. The land lease, which comprises 13.88 acres in Roslin, Ontario, Canada, has a term expiring March 31, 2034. The basic monthly rent on the net lease is $2,214 (C$3,000) and is subject to adjustment based on the consumer price index as published by Statistics Canada ("CPI"). To date, no adjustment for CPI has been charged. The Company is also responsible for any property taxes, maintenance, insurance and utilities. In addition, the Company had the right to extend the lease for five further terms of five years each and one further term of five years less one day. As the Company acquired the business of 1684567, the previous landlord, in 2019, there are no future commitments for this lease. The Company is responsible through a special provision of the site plan agreement with the City of Belleville (the "City"), Ontario, Canada, that it is required to fund road maintenance required by the City through to September 30, 2025 at an annual rate of $7,380 (C$10,000). The future minimum commitment is as follows:

For the nine-month period ending December 31, 2024 $ 7,380  
For the year ending December 31, 2025   7,380

Up until September 30, 2023, PACE had provided the Company a letter of credit in favor of the MECP in the amount of $204,301 (C$276,831) and, as security, had registered a charge of lease over the Company's Belleville Facility located at 704 Phillipston Road, Roslin (near Belleville), Ontario, Canada.

The current letter of credit required by the MEC is $470,576 (C$637,637) and now $108,107 (C$146,487), while the Company re-assesses and re-submits it financial assurance to the MECP with the assistance of its environmental consultant. The Company has not yet satisfied this requirement of the MECP.

The letter of credit is a requirement of the MECP and is in connection with the financial assurance provided by the Company for it to be in compliance with the MECPs environmental objectives. The MECP regularly evaluates the Company's Belleville Facility to ensure compliance is adhered to and the letter of credit is subject to change by the MECP. The Company has engaged an environmental consulting firm to re-evaluate the financial assurance with the MECP which is based on the estimated environmental remediation and clean-up costs for its waste processing and composting facility. As a result of inspections carried out by the MECP during the prior years, some of which have resulted in MECP orders having been issued, the Company has accrued estimated and actual costs for corrective measures in orders issued by the MECP $2,102,786 (C$2,849,304) (December 31, 2023-$2,153,214; C$2,847,790).

17. Economic Dependence

The Company generated 91% of its revenue from three customers, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 (2023-88% from three customers).

 

18. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising from the ordinary course of business. Management believes that there are currently no claims or actions pending against us, the ultimate disposition of which would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, except as follows:

The Company has a claim against it for unpaid legal fees in the amount of $48,148 (C$65,241). The amount is included in accounts payable on the Company's consolidated balance sheet.

On October 4, 2023, an action was launched by one of the October 2021 Investors, who claimed he was owed $1,300,000 plus accrued interest. The principal balance in the accounts and noted under convertible promissory notes, note 11(a) is $1,722,911 (December 31, 2023-$1,645,337), which is after conversions of $318,100 during 2022 and 2023 and includes accrued interest of $422,911 (December 31, 2023-$345,337). The Company has disclosed the fair value of this convertible promissory note as $2,495,508 (December 31, 2023-$2,404,558). The Company intends to repay the balance owed when it is financially able to do so.

On November 27, 2023 and March 6, 2024, the Company experienced an outflow of leachate impacted water from its stormwater pond into the City of Belleville's roadside ditch. The Company is working with its environmental consultants and its Canadian legal counsel to assess the damage caused, remediate this occurrence and report regularly to the MECP.

The Company has a claim against it for unpaid hydro bills in the amount of $378,278 (C$500,302). The amount is included in accounts payable on the Company's in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In addition, on November 17, 2023, the Company received an amended claim filed against it from 2023 by Tradigital in the sum of $219,834 in owed fees plus the difference in stock price, 300,000 common shares of the Company, plus attorney fees and expenses. The case went to arbitration on March 11, 2024 and the Company defended its position. On April 4, 2024, the International Centre for Dispute Resolution indicated that no additional evidence is to be submitted and the hearings were declared closed as of April 29, 2024.The tribunal would endeavor to render the final decision within the timeframe provided for in the rules. Management agrees that outstanding fees, which are included in accounts payable in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets, are only in the amount of $30,000, which was agreed to by the parties in earlier communications and through various e-mail correspondence. In addition, the management has no issue with the outstanding common shares to be provided to the claimant totaling 300,000. Management believes that the additional claim amount of $189,834 is without merit. Of the total of 300,000 common shares, 50,000 have been issued and the remaining 250,000 were previously disclosed as shares to be issued in the consolidated statements of stockholders' deficiency. On April 26, 2024, the arbitrator for this claim awarded Tradigital the sum of $118,170 which had been accrued by the Company as at December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024 and the remaining 250,000 common shares were not required to be issued by the Company.

Refer also to subsequent events, note 19(a).

 

19. Subsequent Events

The Company's management has evaluated subsequent events up to the date the interim condensed consolidated financial statements were issued, pursuant to the requirements of ASC 855 and has determined the following to be material subsequent events:

(a)     On April 1, 2024, the Company received notice of a complaint filed against it by one of the March 2022 Investors, seeking damages of no less than $4,545,393. The Company had thirty calendar days to respond and on April 30, 2024, the Company was able to extend the time to respond with opposing counsel, a further fifteen days. The Company has been unable to retain counsel to represent it in this matter. The full amount of the complaint has been included in the accounts. On May 21, 2024, the counsel for the plaintiff requested an entry for a default judgement against the Company.

OVERVIEW

The following organization chart sets forth our wholly-owned subsidiaries:

form10qx001.jpg

On February 4, 2019, the Company registered its common stock, having a par value of $.0001 per share, pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and is effective pursuant to General Instruction A.(d).

SusGlobal Energy Corp. ("SusGlobal") was formed by articles of amalgamation on December 3, 2014, in the Province of Ontario, Canada and its executive office is in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, at 200 Davenport Road. Our telephone number is 416-223-8500. Our website address is www.susglobalenergy.com. Our annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K are all available, free of charge, on our website as soon as practicable after we file the reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). SusGlobal Energy Corp., a company in the start-up stages and Commandcredit Corp. ("Commandcredit"), an inactive Canadian public company, amalgamated to continue business under the name of SusGlobal Energy Corp.

On May 23, 2017, SusGlobal filed an Application for Authorization to continue in another Jurisdiction with the Ministry of Government Services in Ontario and a certificate of corporate domestication and certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware under which it changed its jurisdiction of incorporation from Ontario to the State of Delaware (the "Domestication"). In connection with the Domestication each of the currently issued and outstanding common shares were automatically converted on a one-for-one basis into common shares compliant with the laws of the state of Delaware (the "Shares"). As a result of the Domestication, pursuant to Section 388 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"), SusGlobal continued its existence under the DGCL as a corporation incorporated in the State of Delaware. The business, assets and liabilities of SusGlobal and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, as well as its principal location and fiscal year, were the same immediately after the Domestication as they were immediately prior to the Domestication. SusGlobal filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 to register the Shares and this registration statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 12, 2017.

SusGlobal is a renewables company focused on acquiring, developing and monetizing a global portfolio of proprietary technologies in the waste to energy and regenerative products application.

When the terms "the Company," "we," "us" or "our" are used in this document, those terms refer to SusGlobal Energy Corp., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, SusGlobal Energy Canada Corp., SusGlobal Energy Canada I Ltd., SusGlobal Energy Belleville Ltd., SusGlobal Energy Hamilton Ltd., and 1684567 Ontario Inc.

On December 11, 2018, the Company began trading on the OTCQB venture market exchange, under the ticker symbol SNRG.

As the global amount of organic waste continues to grow, a solution for sustainable global management of these wastes is paramount. SusGlobal through its proprietary technology and processes is equipped and confident to deliver this objective. Management believes renewable energy is the energy of the future. Sources of this type of energy are more evenly distributed over the earth's surface than finite energy sources, making it an attractive alternative to petroleum-based energy. Biomass, one of the renewable resources, is derived from organic material such as forestry, food, plant and animal residuals. SusGlobal can therefore help you turn what many consider waste into precious energy and regenerative products. The portfolio will be comprised of three distinct types of technologies: (a) Process Source Separated Organics ("SSO") in anaerobic digesters to divert from landfills and recover biogas. This biogas can be converted to gaseous fuel for industrial processes, electricity to the grid or cleaned for compressed renewable gas. (b) Maximizing the capacity of existing infrastructure (anaerobic digesters) to allow processing of SSO to increase biogas yield. (c) and (c) process SSO and digestate to produce an organic compost or a pathogen free organic liquid fertilizer. The convertibility of organic material into valuable end products such as biogas, liquid biofuels, organic fertilizers and compost shows the utility of renewables. These products can be converted into electricity, fuels and marketed to agricultural operations that are looking for an increase in crop yields, soil amendment and environmentally-sound practices. This practice also diverts these materials from landfills and reduces Greenhouse Gas Emissions ("GHG") that result from landfilling organic wastes. The Company can provide peace of mind that the full lifecycle of organic material is achieved, global benefits are realized and stewardship for total sustainability is upheld. It is management's objective to grow SusGlobal into a significant sustainable waste to energy and regenerative products provider, as Leaders in The Circular Economy®.

We believe the products and services offered can benefit both the public and private markets. The following includes some of our work managing organic waste streams: Anaerobic Digestion, Dry Digestion, Wastewater Treatment, In-Vessel Composting, SSO Treatment, Biosolids Heat Treatment, Leachate Management, Composting and Liquid Fertilizers.

The Company can provide a full range of services for handling organic residuals in a period where innovation and sustainability are paramount. From start to finish we offer in-depth knowledge, a wealth of experience and cutting-edge technology for handling organic waste.

The primary focus of the services SusGlobal provides includes integrating our technologies with capital investment to optimize the processing of SSO. Our processes not only divert significant organic waste from landfills, but also result in methane avoidance, with significant GHG reductions from waste disposal. The processes produce regenerative products through the conversion of organic wastes into organic fertilizer, both dry compost and liquid.

Currently, the primary customers are municipalities in both rural and urban centers in Ontario, Canada. Where necessary, to follow provincial and local environmental laws and regulations, SusGlobal submits applications to the respective authorities for approval prior to any necessary engineering being carried out.

We are a "smaller reporting company," as defined under SEC Regulation S-K. As such, we also are exempt from the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and are subject to less extensive disclosure requirements regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. We will continue to be deemed a smaller reporting company until (i) our public float exceeds $250 million on the last day of our second fiscal quarter in our prior fiscal year (if our annual revenues exceeded $100 million in such prior fiscal year); or (ii) our public float exceeds $700 million on the last day of our second fiscal quarter in our prior fiscal year (if our annual revenues were less than $100 million in such prior fiscal year).

RECENT BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS

As noted below, the Company's composting facility, near Belleville, Ontario, Canada (the "Belleville Facility"), ceased accepting waste after January 10, 2024 and continues to seek funding or re-financing to remediate the compliance matters in an effort to begin accepting waste again before the end of the current year.

On May 16, 2024, the Company was informed by its Canadian legal counsel that the City of Belleville, Ontario, Canada (the "City"), issued an order against the Company's Belleville Facility, its numbered company, 1684567 and its officers for the repayment of the cost of pumping out contaminated water from the City's roadside ditch, along with legal and other associated costs. On May 31, 2024, the companies and the officers filed notices of appeal to the Ontario Land Tribunal.

On or around November 27, 2023 and March 6, 2024, the Company experienced an outflow of contaminated water from its stormwater pond at its Belleville Facility, which spilled over into the City of Belleville's roadside ditch and has continued to periodically overflow. The Company is working with its environmental consultants and its Canadian legal counsel to assess the damage caused, remediate this occurrence and report regularly to the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks from the Province of Ontario (the "MECP").

form10qxu001.jpg

As a result of an order issued by the Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development, specifically relating to high ammonia levels in one of the Company's composting buildings, the Company ceased accepting waste after January 10, 2024, to address this and other compliance matters issued by the MECP. The Company also received orders from the MECP to address repairs, the clean-up of unusable waste on site, re-habilitating its stormwater management system and other matters. Management anticipates these matters will take several months to complete, will require significant investment, and are dependent on the Company securing funding. We believe that our operating property, vehicle and equipment had been adequately maintained but will require significant investment to carry out repairs and improvements as ordered by the MECP. This will also include replacement of certain equipment at the Company's Belleville Facility.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, $558 (C$752) (2023-$1,052; C$1,423) in interest was incurred.

Operations

The Company owns Environmental Compliance Approvals (the "ECAs") issued by the MECP from the Province of Ontario, in place to accept up to 70,000 metric tonnes ("MT") of waste annually from the provinces of Ontario, Quebec and from New York state, and to operate a waste transfer station with the capacity to process up to an additional 50,000 MT of waste annually. Once built, the location of the waste transfer station will be alongside the Organic and Non-Hazardous Waste Processing and Composting Facility which is currently operating in Belleville, Ontario, Canada.

Waste Transfer Station- Access to the waste transfer station is critical to haulers who collect waste in areas not in close proximity to disposal facilities where such disposal continues to be permitted. Tipping fees charged to third parties at waste transfer stations are usually based on the type and volume or weight of the waste deposited at the waste transfer station, the distance to the disposal site, market rates for disposal costs and other general market factors.

Organic Composting Facility- As noted above, the Company's Belleville Facility, located in Belleville, Ontario Canada, has ECAs in place to accept up to 70,000 MT of waste annually and is currently in operation. Certain assets of the organic waste processing and composting facility, including the ECAs for the waste transfer station (not yet built), were acquired by the Company on September 15, 2017, from the Receiver for Astoria, under the asset purchase agreement (the"APA"). The Company charges tipping fees for the waste accepted at the Belleville Facility based on arrangements in place with the customers and the type of waste accepted. Typical waste accepted includes, SSO, leaf and yard, food, liquid, paper sludge and biosolids. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, tipping fees ranged from $51 (C$69) to $118 (C$159) per MT.

The Company owns a 41,535 square foot facility (approximately 27% complete) on 5.29 acres in Hamilton, Ontario (the "Hamilton Facility"), which includes the additional land purchased November 2, 2023 and which includes an Environmental Compliance Approval to process 65,884 MT per annum of organic waste, 24 hours per day 7 days a week. The Hamilton Facility has been designed to produce, distribute and warehouse the Company's SusGro™ organic liquid fertilizer and other products that are anticipated to be provided under private label and to be sold through big box retailers, consumer lawn and garden suppliers, and for end use to the wine, cannabis and agriculture industries. With the addition of a further 11,000 square feet of office space and R&D labs, the Hamilton Facility will also house the continued development of SusGlobal's proprietary formulations and branded liquid and dry organic fertilizers.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had a bank balance of $222 (December 31, 2023-$1,263) and current debt obligations and other current liabilities in the amount of $31,273,370 (December 31, 2023-$30,823,963). As at March 31, 2024, the Company had a working capital deficit of $31,002,937 (December 31, 2023-$30,390,423). The Company does not currently have sufficient funds to satisfy the current debt obligations.

The Company's total assets as at March 31, 2024 were $11,242,878 (December 31, 2023-$11,755,903) and total current liabilities were $31,273,370 (December 31, 2023-$30,823,963). Significant losses from operations have been incurred since inception and there is an accumulated deficit of $40,096,275 as at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023 -$38,570,531). Continuation as a going concern is dependent upon generating significant new revenue and generating external capital and securing debt to satisfy its creditors' demands and to achieve profitable operations while maintaining current fixed expense levels.

form10qxu001.jpg
31

To pay current liabilities and to fund any future operations, the Company requires significant new funds, which the Company may not be able to obtain. In addition to the funds required to liquidate the $31,273,370 in current debt obligations and other current liabilities, the Company estimates that approximately $15,000,000 must be raised to fund capital requirements and general corporate expenses for the next 12 months.

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to market risks, including changes in interest rates, certain commodity prices and Canadian currency rates. The Company does not use derivatives to manage these risks.

As at March 31, 2024, the current and long-term portions of our debt obligations totaled $20,558,527 (December 31, 2023-$20,447,318). As a result of default and cross defaults, the long-term debt is presented as current debt, even where due beyond twelve months of the balance sheet date.

In addition, up until September 30, 2023, PACE had provided the Company a letter of credit in favor of the MECP in the amount of $204,301 (C$276,831) and, as security, has registered a charge of lease over the Belleville Facility.

The current letter of credit required by the MEC is $470,576 (C$637,637) and now $108,107 (C$146,487), while the Company re-assesses and re-submits it financial assurance to the MECP with the assistance of its environmental consultant. The Company has not yet satisfied this requirement of the MECP.

The letter of credit is a requirement of the MECP and is in connection with the financial assurance provided by the Company for it to be in compliance with the MECPs environmental objectives. The MECP regularly evaluates the Company's organic waste processing and composting facility to ensure compliance is adhered to and the letter of credit is subject to change by the MECP. The Company has engaged an environmental consulting firm to re-evaluate the financial assurance with the MECP which is based on the estimated environmental remediation and clean-up costs for its Belleville Facility. As a result of inspections carried out by the MECP during the prior years, some of which have resulted in MECP orders being issued, the Company has accrued estimated and actual costs for corrective measures in orders issued by the MECP $2,102,786 (C$2,849,304) (December 31, 2023-$2,153,214; C$2,847,790).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2024 AND 2023

As a result of an order issued by the Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development, specifically relating to high ammonia levels in one of the Company's composting buildings at its Belleville Facility, the Company ceased accepting waste after January 10, 2024, to address this and other compliance matters issued by the MECP. The Company also received orders from the MECP to address repairs, the clean-up of unusable waste on site, re-habilitating its stormwater management system and other matters. Management anticipates these matters will take several months to complete, will require significant investment, and are dependent on the Company securing funding. We believe that our operating property, vehicle and equipment had been adequately maintained but will require significant investment to carry out repairs and improvements as ordered by the MECP. This will also include replacement of certain equipment at the Company's Belleville Facility.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company generated $38,575 of revenue from its Belleville Facility compared to $164,687 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. The decrease in revenue is due to the result of not accepting waste after January 10, 2024. The current period's revenue also included revenue from the sale of carbon credits in the amount of $16,468, an increase of $6,239 over the prior year's period.

In the operation of the Belleville Facility, the Company processes organic and other waste received and produces the end product, compost. The cost of producing the compost totaled $269,152 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 compared to $181,321 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. These costs include equipment rental, delivery, fuel, repairs and maintenance, direct wages and benefits, depreciation, utilities and outside contractors. Included are the costs for the estimate of completing certain known compliance matters as ordered by the MECP.

Operating expenses increased by $152,372 from $1,031,351 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to $1,183,723 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, explained further below.

Management compensation related to stock-based compensation reduced by $3,600, in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. The current stock-based compensation reflects the stock-based compensation issued to the CEO as stipulated in his executive consulting contract, effective January 1, 2023. This will be earned throughout the current year, in the amount of $54,000 per quarter. And the management compensation relating to fees increases $22,557 reflecting the increase in the CEO's compensation for the current year.

Marketing expenses reduced by $10,450, from $10,951 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to $501 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, as the Company did not have a marketing campaign during the current period.

Professional fees increased by $43,699, from $116,688 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to $160,387 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. The primary reason for the increase is due to additional legal fees incurred in addressing the orders issued by the MECP.

Interest expense increased by $65,641 from $219,675 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to $285,316 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to the increase in mortgages in December of 2023, new mortgages on the Hamilton, Ontario, Canada property purchase in November of 2023 and new loans from Haute Inc., in December 2023 and January 2024. These changes along with the new fixed rates on certain mortgages at 12% and 13% annually resulted in the increased interest expense. This was offset by the settlement of the PACE loans in November 2023, resulting in no interest incurred in the current period ending March 31, 204 compared to the interest incurred in the previous period ended March 31, 2023 of $102,842.

form10qxu001.jpg

Office and administration expenses increased nominally by $4,322, from $52,890 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to $57,122 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024.

Rent and occupancy increased by $10,137 from $50,193 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to $60,330 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to an increase in rent and related expenses of $6,931 for the Company's Toronto, Ontario, Canada office and additional property taxes of $3,206.

Insurance increased nominally by $1,106 from $13,543 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to $14,649 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, as the Company continues to accrue for certain coverage which it has not been able to fund currently.

Filing fees decreased nominally by $1,320, from $12,457 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to $11,137 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024

The amortization of financing costs increased by $38,692, from $18,824 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to $57,516 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, due to new financing fees incurred on the new or re-financed mortgages and loan from Haute Inc., in the fourth quarter of 2023 and for the new loan from Haute Inc., in January of 2024.

Directors' compensation increased by $2,566 from $15,969 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 to $18,535 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, because of the compensation for the four independent directors for the entire quarter versus not a full complement of four independent directors for the entire quarter in the prior year.

There was no stock-based compensation in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, a reduction of $334,291 from the three-month period ended March 31, 2023.

There were no repairs and maintenance in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, a reduction of $19,687 from the three-month period ended March 31, 2023.

The foreign exchange income in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 in the amount of $7,873 reduced to a loss of $325,217 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 a change of $333,090, due primarily to the translation of significant United States dollar denominated transactions and balances during the period including the convertible promissory notes, compared to the prior period, during a period of a weaking Canadian dollar compared to the United States dollar.

During the current three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a loss on the revaluation of the convertible promissory notes in the amount of $133,686 compared to gain of $33,326 in the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. In addition, during the current three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized a gain of $22,242 on the forgiveness of a portion of the CEBA loans on repayment in January of 2024. And, in the prior three-month period ended March 31, 2023 the Company incurred a loss of $20,513, on the conversion of a portion of a convertible promissory note. In total, other (expense) income changed by $124,257 in the current three-month period ended March 31, 2024 compared to the prior three-month period ended March 31, 2023.

As at March 31, 2024, the Company had a working capital deficit of $31,002,937 (December 31, 2023-$30,390,423), incurred a net loss of $1,525,744 (March 31, 2023-$1,035,172) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and had an accumulated deficit of $40,096,275 (December 31, 2023-$38,570,531) and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business.

These factors cast substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, which is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to further the development of its business satisfy its outstanding obligations to its creditors and upon achieving profitable operations. There is no assurance of funding being available or available on acceptable terms. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result if the Company was unable to continue as a going concern.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

Use of estimates

The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgements about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Areas involving significant estimates and assumptions include: the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, useful lives of long-lived and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets and intangible assets, valuation of asset acquisition, accruals, fair value of convertible promissory notes, deferred income tax assets and related valuation allowance, environmental remediation costs, stock-based compensation and going concern. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically and as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the period in which they become available.

Stock-based compensation

The Company records compensation costs related to stock-based awards in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, whereby the Company measures stock-based compensation cost at the grant date based on the estimated fair value of the award. Compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award. Where necessary, the Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including: the expected option life, the risk-free rate, the dividend yield, the volatility of the Company's stock price and an assumption for employee forfeitures. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury bill rate at the date of the grant with maturity dates approximately equal to the expected term of the option. The Company has not historically issued any dividends and does not expect to in the near future. Changes in any of these subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates and the resulting stock- based compensation recognized. The Company has not issued any stock options and has no stock options outstanding at March 31, 2024.

Indefinite Asset Impairments

The Company evaluates the intangible assets for impairment annually in the fourth quarter or when triggering events are identified and whether events and circumstances continue to support the indefinite useful life using Level 3 inputs.

Long-Lived Asset Impairments

In accordance with ASC 360, "Property, Plant and Equipment", long-lived assets to be held and used are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable.

The Company evaluates at each balance sheet date whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment. If there are indications of impairment, the Company uses future undiscounted cash flows of the related asset or asset grouping over the remaining life in measuring whether the carrying amounts are recoverable. In the event that such cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the recorded asset values, the assets are written down to their estimated fair value.

Convertible Promissory Notes

The Company has elected the fair value option to account for its convertible promissory notes issued after December 31, 2020. In accordance with ASC 825, the convertible promissory notes are marked-to-market at each reporting date with changes in fair value recorded as a component of other income (expense), in the interim condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The Company has elected to include interest expense in the changes in fair value. Transaction costs are incurred as expensed. The Company did not elect the fair value option for the convertible promissory notes issued in 2019. These notes are measured at amortized cost.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that is material to investors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

As a smaller reporting company, as that term is defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of our disclosure control system are met. Due to inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected. Based on our evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The matters involving internal controls over financial reporting that may be considered material weaknesses included the small size of the Company and the resulting lack of a segregation of duties.

Notwithstanding these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, there were no changes made by management to its internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising from the ordinary course of business. Management believes that there are currently no claims or actions pending against us, the ultimate disposition of which would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows, except as follows:

The Company has a claim against it for unpaid legal fees in the amount of $48,206 (C$65,241). The amount is included in accounts payable on the Company's interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On October 4, 2023, an action was launched by one of the October 2021 Investors, who claimed he was owed $1,300,000 plus accrued interest. The principal balance in the accounts and noted under convertible promissory notes, note 11(a) is $1,722,911 (December 31, 2023-$1,645,337), which is after conversions of $318,100 during 2022 and 2023 and includes accrued interest of $422,911 (December 31, 2023-$345,337). The Company has disclosed the fair value of this convertible promissory note as $2,495,508 (December 31, 2023-$2,404,558). The Company intends to repay the balance owed when it is financially able to do so.

On November 27, 2023 and March 6, 2024, the Company experienced an outflow of leachate impacted water from its stormwater pond into the City of Belleville's roadside ditch. The Company is working with its environmental consultants and its Canadian legal counsel to assess the damage caused, remediate this occurrence and report regularly to the MECP.

The Company has a claim against it for unpaid hydro bills in the amount of $369,223 (C$500,302). The amount is included in accounts payable on the Company's interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In addition, on November 17, 2023, the Company received an amended claim filed against it from 2023 by Tradigital in the sum of $219,834 in owed fees plus the difference in stock price, 300,000 common shares of the Company, plus attorney fees and expenses. The case went to arbitration on March 11, 2024 and the Company defended its position. On April 4, 2024, the International Centre for Dispute Resolution indicated that no additional evidence is to be submitted and the hearings were declared closed as of April 29, 2024.The tribunal will endeavor to render the final decision within the timeframe provided for in the rules. Management agrees that outstanding fees, which are included in accounts payable in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets, are only in the amount of $30,000, which was agreed to by the parties in earlier communications and through various e-mail correspondence. In addition, the management has no issue with the outstanding common shares to be provided to the claimant totaling 300,000. Management believes that the additional claim amount of $189,834 is without merit. Of the total of 300,000 common shares, 50,000 have been issued and the remaining 250,000 were previously disclosed as shares to be issued in the consolidated statements of stockholders' deficiency. On April 26, 2024, the arbitrator for this claim awarded Tradigital the sum of $118,170 which has been accrued by the Company as at December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024 and the remaining 250,000 common shares were not required to be issued by the Company.

On April 1, 2024, the Company received notice of a complaint filed against it by one of the March 2022 Investors, seeking damages of no less than $4,545,393. The Company had thirty calendar days to respond and on April 30, 2024, the Company was able to extend the time to respond with opposing counsel, a further fifteen days. The Company has been unable to retain counsel to represent it in this matter. The full amount of the complaint has been included in the accounts. On May 21, 2024, the counsel for the plaintiff requested an entry for a default judgement against the Company.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company issued for non-cash proceeds:

1. Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

SusGlobal Energy Corp. ("SusGlobal") was formed by articles of amalgamation on December 3, 2014, in the Province of Ontario, Canada and its executive office is in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. SusGlobal, a company in the start-up stages and Commandcredit Corp. ("Commandcredit"), an inactive Canadian public company, amalgamated to continue business under the name of SusGlobal Energy Corp.

On May 23, 2017, SusGlobal filed an Application for Authorization to continue in another Jurisdiction with the Ministry of Government Services in Ontario and a certificate of corporate domestication and certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware under which it changed its jurisdiction of incorporation from Ontario to the State of Delaware (the "Domestication"). In connection with the Domestication each of the currently issued and outstanding common shares were automatically converted on a one-for-one basis into common shares compliant with the laws of the state of Delaware (the "Shares"). As a result of the Domestication, pursuant to Section 388 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the "DGCL"), SusGlobal continued its existence under the DGCL as a corporation incorporated in the State of Delaware. The business, assets and liabilities of SusGlobal and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, as well as its principal location and fiscal year, were the same immediately after the Domestication as they were immediately prior to the Domestication. SusGlobal filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 to register the Shares and this registration statement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 12, 2017.

On December 11, 2018, the Company began trading on the OTCQB venture market exchange, under the ticker symbol SNRG.

SusGlobal is a renewables company focused on acquiring, developing and monetizing a global portfolio of proprietary technologies in the waste to energy and regenerative products application.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of SusGlobal and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, SusGlobal Energy Canada Corp. ("SECC"), SusGlobal Energy Canada I Ltd. ("SGECI"), SusGlobal Energy Belleville Ltd. ("SGEBL"), SusGlobal Energy Hamilton Ltd. ("SEHL") and 1684567 Ontario Inc. ("1684567") (together, the "Company"), have been prepared following generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("US GAAP") for interim financial information and the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC") instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of SEC Regulation S-X, and are expressed in United States Dollars. The Company's functional currency is the Canadian Dollar ("C$"). In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

Going Concern [Text Block]

2. Going Concern

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next twelve months.

The Company incurred a net loss of $1,525,744 (2023-$1,035,172) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and as at that date had a working capital deficit of $31,002,937 (December 31, 2023-$30,390,423) and an accumulated deficit of $40,096,275 (December 31, 2023-$38,570,531) and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business.

On November 3, 2023, the funds previously held in escrow, which related to a full and final mutual release of all obligations owing to PACE, including accrued interest, in the amount of $924,500 (C$1,250,000), were released to PACE (now Alterna) and Alterna released all security it held to the Company. Prior to this full and final mutual release the obligations owing to PACE, including accrued interest were $3,930,207 (C$5,197,999). The Company was successful in extending the maturity date on one of its 1st mortgages, which had a maturity date of December 1, 2023, to June 1, 2024 and transferred another 1st mortgage, originally a vendor take-back mortgage with a maturity date of August 17, 2023 to a new mortgage with a new maturity date of December 14, 2024. On January 10, 2024, the Company stopped receiving waste at its waste processing and composting operation in Belleville, Ontario Canada, to address several non-compliance matters addressed in orders from the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (the "MECP"). The Company continues to seek investors to raise funds through debt or equity.

These factors cast substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, which is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to further the development of its business, satisfy its obligations to its creditors, and upon achieving profitable operations through revenue growth. There is no assurance of funding being available or available on acceptable terms. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result if the Company was unable to continue as a going concern.

Financial Instruments [Text Block]

5. Financial Instruments

The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, such as cash, trade receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amounts of the long-term debt, obligations under capital lease, convertible promissory notes and loans payable to related parties also approximates fair value due to their market interest rate.

Interest, Credit and Concentration Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk borne by an interest-bearing asset or liability as a result of fluctuations in interest rates. Financial assets and financial liabilities with variable interest rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk.

The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk on its long-term debt as at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty's inability to perform its payment obligations. As at March 31, 2024, the Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to cash and trade receivables. As at March 31, 2024, the Company's cash was held with a reputable Canadian chartered bank and a United States of America bank.

With regards to credit risk with customers, the customers' credit evaluation is reviewed by management and account monitoring procedures are used to minimize the risk of loss. The Company believes that no additional credit risk beyond amounts provided for by the allowance for doubtful accounts are inherent in accounts receivable. As at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there was no allowance for doubtful accounts.

As at March 31, 2024, the Company is exposed to concentration risk as it had one customer (December 31, 2023-three customers) representing greater than 5% of total trade receivables and one customer (December 31, 2023-three customers) represented 89% (December 31, 2023-97%) of trade receivables. The Company had certain customers whose revenue individually represented 10% or more of the Company's total revenue. These customers accounted for 91% (43%, 27% and 21%) (March 31, 2023-67%; 22% and 45%) of total revenue.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company is unable to meet its obligations as they fall due. The Company takes steps to ensure it has sufficient working capital and available sources of financing to meet future cash requirements for capital programs and operations. Management is considering all its options to repay its creditors. Refer also to going concern, note 2.

The Company actively monitors its liquidity to ensure that its cash flows and working capital are adequate to support its financial obligations and the Company's capital programs. To continue operations, the Company will need to raise capital, and complete the refinancing of its real property and organic waste processing and composting facility (the "Belleville Facility"). There is no assurance of funding being available or available on acceptable terms. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown. Refer also to going concern, note 2.

Currency Risk

Although the Company's functional currency is the C$, the Company realizes a portion of its expenses in United States Dollars ("$"). Consequently, certain assets and liabilities are exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. As at March 31, 2024, $3,287,681 (December 31, 2023-$3,168,407) of the Company's net monetary liabilities were denominated in $. The Company has not entered into any hedging transactions to reduce the exposure to currency risk.

(a) Convertible promissory note-October 28 and 29, 2021 $ 3,011,755   $ 2,898,595

The convertible promissory notes are accounted for under the fair value option in the consolidated balance sheets. The actual principal outstanding on the balance of the notes as at March 31, 2024 is $7,728,440 including accrued interest of $1,518,280 (2023-$7,442,600, including accrued interest of $1,232,440).

(a) On October 28 and 29, 2021, the Company entered into two securities purchase agreement (the "October 2021 SPAs) with two investors (the "October 2021 Investors") pursuant to which the Company issued to the October 2021 Investors two 15% OID unsecured convertible promissory notes (the "October 2021 Investor Notes") in the principal amount of $1,765,118. The October 2021 Investor Notes are convertible, with accrued interest, from time to time on notice of a liquidity event (a "Liquidity Event"). A Liquidity Event is defined as a public offering of the Company's common stock resulting in the listing for trading of the common stock on any one of a number of exchanges. The October 2021 Investor Notes can be prepaid prior to maturity for an amount of 120% of the prepayment amount.

The maturity date of the October 2021 Investor Notes is the earlier of (i) July 28 and 29, 2022 and (ii) the occurrence of a Liquidity Event, as described above (the "Maturity Date"). Upon the occurrence of a Liquidity Event, the October 2021 Investors are entitled to convert all or a portion of their October 2021 Investor Notes including any accrued and unpaid interest at a conversion price (the "Conversion Price") equal to 70% (representing a 30% discount) multiplied by the price per share of the Common Stock at the public offering associated with the Liquidity Event.

Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the interest rate on the October 2021 Investor Notes will immediately accrue at 24% per annum and be paid in cash monthly to the October 2021 Investors, until the default is cured. And the Conversion Price will be reset to 85% of the lowest volume weighted average price for the ten consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is immediately prior to the applicable conversion date.

On May 11, 2022, the holder of the October 29, 2021, investor note, provided an amendment for an optional conversion of his investor notes. The conversion price was amended to be (i) the product of the Liquidity Event price multiplied by the discount of 35% (previously 30%) or (2) the greater of (i) the product of the closing price per share of the Company's Common Stock as reported by the applicable trading market on the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date multiplied by the discount (35%) or $1.70 multiplied by the discount (35%), provided that in the event of a conversion, of investor note, at a time that a Liquidity Event shall not have previously occurred and be continuing, the conversion price for such conversion shall be as provided in the amendment.

On August 16, 2022, the Company was sent a notice of default from one of the October 2021 Investors, whose investor note was issued on October 29, 2021. On September 15, 2022, the Company and the investor of the October 2021 investor note entered into an amendment to the October 2021 investor note which served as a cure to the previously issued default notice.

Pursuant to the September 15, 2022 amendment, the Company and the October 29, 2021 investor, agreed that the outstanding principal amount of the October 29, 2021 investor note would increase by 10% to $1,618,100 from the previously issued principal amount of $1,471,000. The new agreed upon maturity date was changed to November 15, 2022, subject to certain conditions and the maturity date would automatically be extended to January 15, 2023, provided that the October 29, 2021 investor does not notify the Company in writing prior to the maturity date that the automatic extension of the maturity date has been cancelled. In connection with this amendment, the Company agreed to use its best efforts to promptly facilitate the conversion of the October 29, 2021 investor note into shares of the Company's common stock.

As a result of the default on November 15, 2022, the Company was informed that the October 29, 2021 investor will now be accruing interest at the default rate of 24% per annum. As at March 31, 2024, this note has a principal balance of $1,722,911 (December 31, 2023-$1,645,337), including $422,911 (December 31, 2023-$345,337) of accrued interest. In addition, on October 4, 2023, an action was launched by the October 29, 2021 investor, who claimed he was owed $1,300,000 plus accrued interest which is after conversions of $318,100 during 2022 and 2023 and includes accrued interest of $422,911 as at March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023-$345,337). The Company has disclosed the fair value of this convertible promissory note as $2,495,508 (December 31, 2023-$2,404,558). The Company intends to repay the balance owed when it is financially able to do so.

Further, the October 29, 2021 investor agreed not to convert more than $100,000 in any one conversion notice and the October 29, 2021 investor agreed not to issue an additional conversion notice unless and until any previously issued conversion shares have been sold by the October 29, 2021 investor or exceed 10% of the daily trading volume in selling the shares of the Company's common stock.

On September 21, 2022 and November 10, 2022, the October 29, 2021 investor issued conversion notices to the Company and the Company issued 372,090 common shares at conversion prices ranging from $0.1885 to $0.2339 per share respectively, on the conversion of $25,000 and $50,000 respectively, of the October 29, 2021 investor note, having a fair market value of $97,129 on conversion. The October 29, 2021 investor has not informed the Company of an extension to the current maturity date but continued to issue conversion notices to the Company prior to the default notice of June 8, 2023, noted below.

On December 22, 2022, the October 28, 2021 investor, whose October 28, 2021 investor note had a previous Principal Amount of $294,118 and a maturity date of July 28, 2022, provided the Company with an amendment whereby the maturity date of the October 28, 2021 investor note was extended to the earlier of July 28, 2023 or the occurrence of a Liquidity Event. In addition, the Company agreed that the investor could convert his October 28, 2021, investor note into shares of the Company's common stock at any time at the investor's option. Previously, the October 28, 2021 Note was only convertible upon the occurrence of the Liquidity Event. The Company also agreed to change the conversion price to be the lowest trading bid price of the Company's common stock on the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date multiplied with a 35% discount to that lowest price.

Previously, the conversion price was a 30% discount to the price at which the securities were sold in connection with the Liquidity Event. In consideration for the extension of the maturity date, the Company agreed to issue the investor 500,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company used the with-and-without method to allocate the proceeds between the convertible promissory note and the common shares. As a result, all the proceeds were allocated to the convertible promissory note and $nil to the common shares. As a result of the default on July 28, 2023, the Company is now incurring interest at the default rate of 24%. As at March 31, 2024, this note had a principal balance of $374,429 (December 31, 2023-$355,205) including accrued interest of $52,269 (December 31, 2023-$33,045). The Company has disclosed the fair value of this convertible promissory note as $516,247 (December 31, 2023-$494,037).

On June 8, 2023, the October 29, 2021 investor's counsel sent the Company a notice of default on the October 29, 2021 investor note and the March 2022 Investor Notes, described below. The default was caused by the holders of these promissory notes not being able to receive shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 (the "Common Stock") pursuant to the conversion terms of these promissory notes. All cure periods available pursuant to the promissory notes had expired prior to June 8, 2023. The October 29, 2021, investor note had a principal balance of $1,300,000 before the default and the March 2022 Investor Notes, whose principal balance totaled $2,640,000 prior to the notice of default, increased by 20% or $528,000 in total as a result of the notice of default. In addition, default interest at the rate of 24% per annum continues to accrue on the October 29, 2021 investor note and the March 2022 Investor Notes.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the October 29, 2021 investor provided the Company with notices of conversion to convert in total $243,100 of his investor note having a fair value on conversion of $374,000 for 1,650,709 of common shares of the Company. The conversion prices per share for the year ended December 31, 2023 ranged from $0.1294 to $0.3400.

The Company initially reserved 1,905,000 of its authorized and unissued Common Stock (the "October 2021 Reserved Amount"), free from pre-emptive rights, to be issued upon conversion of the October 2021 Investor Notes.

(b) On March 3 and 7, 2022, the Company executed two unsecured convertible promissory notes with two investors (the "March 2022 Investors"), who purchased 25% original issue discount (the "OID") unsecured convertible promissory notes (the "The March 2022 Investor Notes") in the aggregate principal amount totaling $2,000,000 (the "Principal Amount") with such Principal Amount convertible into shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock") from time to time triggered by the occurrence of certain events. The March 2022 Investor Notes carried an OID totaling $500,000 which is included in the principal balance of the Notes. The funds were received on March 7, 2022 and March 11, 2022 in the total amount of $1,425,000, net of the OID and professional fees.

The maturity date of the Notes is the earlier of (i) June 3 and 7, 2022, and (ii) the occurrence of a Liquidity Event (as defined in the Notes) (the "Maturity Date"). The final payment of the Principal Amount (and default interest, if any) shall be paid by the Company to the Investors on the Maturity Date. On an event of default, the principal amount of the March 2020 Investor Notes will increase to 120% of their original principal amounts. The Investors are entitled to, following an event of default, (as defined in the March 2022 Investor Notes) to convert all or any amount of the Principal Amount and any interest accruing at the default interest rate of 24% per annum into Common Stock, at a conversion price (the "Conversion Price") equal to 70% (representing a 30% discount) multiplied by the price per share of the Common Stock at any national security exchange or over-the-counter marketplace for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the March 2022 Investors' notice of conversion.

On May 11, 2022, the holder of the March 3, 2022 Investor Note and on May 13, 2022, the holder of the March 7, 2022 Investor Note, each provided an amendment for an optional conversion of their investor notes. The conversion price was amended to be (i) the product of the Liquidity Event price multiplied by the discount of 35% (previously 30%) or (2) the greater of (i) the product of the closing price per share of the Company's Common Stock as reported by the applicable trading market on the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date multiplied by the discount (35%) or $1.70 multiplied by the discount (35%), provided that in the event of a conversion, of his investor note, at a time that a Liquidity Event shall not have previously occurred and be continuing, the conversion price for such conversion shall be as provided in amendment for each.

Further, on June 29, 2022, the March 2022 Investors revised their March 2022 Investor Notes, to extend the maturity date to August 15, 2022 and increase the principal amount of each of the March 2022 Investor Notes by twenty percent (20%), from a Principal Amount of $2,000,000 to $2,400,000. In addition, the Company agreed to issue 100,000 common shares to the March 2022 Investor. These restricted shares of the Company's common stock will survive a reverse stock split prior to listing. The common shares were issued on July 11, 2022. The restructurings were accounted for as extinguishments in 2022 as they were renegotiated after maturity.

On August 16, 2022, the Company was sent notices of default from the March 2022 Investors. And, on September 15, 2022, the Company and the March 2022 Investors entered into an amendment to the March 2022 Investor Notes which served as a cure to the previously issued default notices.

Pursuant to the September 15, 2022 amendment, the Company and the March 2022 Investors agreed that the outstanding principal amount totaling $2,400,000 would increase by 10% to $2,640,000. The new agreed upon maturity date was now November 15, 2022, subject to certain conditions and the maturity date was extended to January 15, 2023. In connection with this amendment, the Company agreed to use its best efforts to promptly facilitate the conversion of the March 2022 Investor Notes into shares of the Company's common stock only after the October 29, 2021 investor note, as described under paragraph (a) above, has been fully converted.

Further, in the event that the October 29, 2021 investor note has been fully converted and the conversion shares sold, thereafter, the March 2022 Investor Notes may both be converted at the March 2022 Investors' discretion on a pari-passu basis, provided, however, that no conversion shall exceed $50,000 for each of the March 2022 Investor Notes and each of the March 2022 Investors shall not sell more than 5% of the daily trading volume in selling the Company's shares of common stock.

As noted above, on June 8, 2023 the counsel for the March 2022 Investors provided the Company with a notice of default. This resulted in the principal balance of the March 2022 Investor Notes increasing in principal from $2,640,000 in total to $3,168,000, in total. In addition, interest is accruing at the rate of 24% per annum. As at March 31, 2024, the principal balance of the March 2022 investor notes totaled $4,211,100 (December 31, 2023- $4,022,058), including accrued interest of $1,043,100 (December 31, 2023-$854,058) is included in the convertible promissory notes balance

(c) On June 23, 2022, the Company executed one convertible promissory note (the "June 2022 Investor Note") with an investor (the "June 2022 Investor") in the amount of $1,200,000 bearing interest at 10% per annum and having an OID of 10%. The maturity date of the June 2022 Investor Note is the earlier of December 23, 2022 and the date of the Company's uplist to a national securities exchange. The proceeds from the June 2022 Investor Note were used to repay this investor's June 2021 Investor Note and their December 2021 Investor Note which matured June 16, 2022 and June 2, 2022 respectively, plus accrued interest. The net proceeds, after repaying the December 2021 Investor Note and the June 2021 Investor Note with accrued interest and related disbursements totaled approximately $204,000. The net proceeds were received on June 28, 2022. In addition, the Company issued 1,333,333 common shares to the June 2022 Investor on June 29, 2022 which have been included in the determination of the extinguishment gain and recognized at fair value. The restructuring was accounted for as extinguishments as it was renegotiated after maturity.

The June 2022 Investor may convert the principal amount and any accrued but unpaid interest into the Company's common stock from time to time following an event of default ('Event of Default"), as defined in the June 2022 Investor Note, with interest accruing at the default interest rate of 15% per annum from the Event of Default, at a conversion price (the "Conversion Price") equal to the lesser of 90% (representing a 10% discount) multiplied by the price per share of the Common Stock at the public offering associated with the Event of Default.

On December 29, 2022, the Company and the investor agreed to extend the maturity date to the earlier of June 23, 2023, or the occurrence of a Liquidity Event. In consideration for the extension of the maturity date, the Company agreed to: (i) increase the principal amount to $1,320,000.00 (the "Increased Principal Amount"); (ii) that interest is payable on the Increased Principal Amount and that such interest (but not any default interest that becomes due) is paid in full and in advance by the Company issuing to the June 2022 Investor 450,000 shares of the Company's common stock and (iii) issue to the June 2022 Investor 666,667 shares of the Company's common stock (the "Modification Fee Shares"). The parties agreed that the Modification Fee Shares served as an increase in the amount of commitment fee shares issued to the investor pursuant to the securities purchase agreement signed by the Company and the June 2022 Investor on June 23, 2022, in connection with the issuance of the June 2022 Investor Note. The Company used the with-and-without method to allocate the proceeds between the convertible promissory note and the common shares. As a result, all the proceeds were allocated to the convertible promissory note and $nil to the common shares.

On June 29, 2023, the June 2022 Investor provided a 45-day extension of the June 2022 Investor Note in exchange for an increase in the principal balance of the June 2022 Investor Note of $100,000, from $1,320,000 to $1,420,000.

The Company initially reserved 8,000,000 of its authorized and unissued Common Stock (the "June 2022 Reserved Amount"), free from pre-emptive rights, to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the full conversion of the June 2022 Investor Note.

Pursuant to the terms of the security purchase agreements for the convertible promissory notes described above, for so long as the noted investors own any shares of Common Stock issued upon the conversion of the applicable investor notes, the Company has covenanted to secure and maintain the listing of such shares of Common Stock. The Company is also subject to certain customary negative covenants under the investor notes and the security purchase agreements, including but not limited to the requirement to maintain its corporate existence and assets, require registration of or stockholder approval for the investor notes or the Common Stock upon the conversion of the applicable investor notes.

The convertible promissory notes described above, contain certain representations, warranties, covenants and events of default including if the Company is delinquent in its periodic report filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission which would increase the amount of the principal and interest rates under the convertible promissory notes in the event of such defaults. In the event of a default, at the option of the applicable investor and in their sole discretion, the applicable investor may consider any of their convertible promissory notes immediately due and payable.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company issued nil (2023-1,049,413) common shares on the conversions of a convertible promissory note in the amount of $nil (2023-$143,100) having a fair value on conversion of $nil (2023-$199,641) at conversion prices ranging from $nil to $nil (2023-$0.1294 to $0.1442) per share. This resulted in a loss on conversion of $nil ($20,513), disclosed under note 16, other (expense) income.

Refer also to going concern, note 2.

Fair value option for the convertible promissory notes

The Company is eligible to elect the fair value option under ASC 825, Financial Instruments and bypass analysis of the potential embedded derivative features described above. The Company believes that the fair value option better reflects the underlying economics of the convertible promissory notes issued after December 31, 2020. As a result, the 2021 and 2022 promissory notes were recorded at fair value upon issuance and subsequently remeasured at each reporting date until settled or converted. The Company recognized the notes initially at fair value, which exceeded the proceeds received resulting in a day one loss that has been recognized in net loss.

Any transaction and other issuance costs have been expensed as incurred. Subsequently, the Company recognizes the notes at fair value with changes in net loss.

12. Fair Value Measurement

The following table presents information about the Company's financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation:

    Fair value as at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 Using:  
    Level 3     March 31, 2024     December 31, 2023  
Assets: $     $ -   $ -  
Liabilities:                  
Convertible promissory notes         10,653,510     10,519,824  
  $     $ 10,653,510   $ 10,519,824  

During each of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, there were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3. There were no financial assets or other liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The following table summarizes the change in Level 3 financial instruments during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

    March 31, 2024     December 31, 2023  
Fair value at December 31, 2023 $ 10,519,824   $ 7,796,433  
Amendments   -     2,526,260  
Conversions/repayments   -     (336,578 )
Mark to market   133,686     533,709  
Fair value at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 $ 10,653,510   $ 10,519,824  

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value of the convertible promissory notes at issuance and subsequent financial reporting dates was estimated based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represent level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value of the convertible promissory notes at issuance and at each reporting period was estimated based on significant inputs not observable in the market, which represents a Level 3 measurement within the fair value hierarchy. The Company used a scenario-based binomial model to estimate the fair value of the convertible promissory notes. The model determines the fair value from a market participant's perspective by evaluating the payouts under hold, convert, or call decisions. The most significant estimates and assumptions used as inputs are those concerning type, timing and probability of specific scenario outcomes. Specifically, the Company assigned a probability of default, which would increase the required payout as described in Note 12 and calculated the fair value under each scenario.

At the issuance dates of the convertible promissory notes, the probability of default ("PD") was assumed to be 75% (December 31, 2023-75%), except for those which were amended post maturity, which were assumed to be 100%. The probability of default was determined in reference to a 1-year PD rate for a 'CCC+' rating at issuance, and a combination of 'CC' and 'CCC' credit ratings at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. Increasing (decreasing) the probability of default would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

Other significant unobservable inputs include the expected volatility and the credit spread. The expected volatility was based on the historical volatility over a look-back period that was consistent with the balance-remaining term of the instruments. A value of 120.3% (December 31, 2023- range of 162.4% to 164.8%) was used for the expected volatility. The discount for lack of marketability was determined using a range of option pricing methodologies using the remaining restriction term corresponding to each instrument on the relevant valuation date. The credit spread was determined in reference to credit yields of companies with similar credit risk at the date of valuation. A premium of 10% (December 31, 2023-10%) was added to the credit spread as an instrument specific adjustment to reflect the Company's risk of default. A value of 23.07% (December 31, 2023-22.95%) was used for the credit spread.

18. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising from the ordinary course of business. Management believes that there are currently no claims or actions pending against us, the ultimate disposition of which would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows, except as follows:

The Company has a claim against it for unpaid legal fees in the amount of $48,148 (C$65,241). The amount is included in accounts payable on the Company's consolidated balance sheet.

On October 4, 2023, an action was launched by one of the October 2021 Investors, who claimed he was owed $1,300,000 plus accrued interest. The principal balance in the accounts and noted under convertible promissory notes, note 11(a) is $1,722,911 (December 31, 2023-$1,645,337), which is after conversions of $318,100 during 2022 and 2023 and includes accrued interest of $422,911 (December 31, 2023-$345,337). The Company has disclosed the fair value of this convertible promissory note as $2,495,508 (December 31, 2023-$2,404,558). The Company intends to repay the balance owed when it is financially able to do so.

On November 27, 2023 and March 6, 2024, the Company experienced an outflow of leachate impacted water from its stormwater pond into the City of Belleville's roadside ditch. The Company is working with its environmental consultants and its Canadian legal counsel to assess the damage caused, remediate this occurrence and report regularly to the MECP.

The Company has a claim against it for unpaid hydro bills in the amount of $378,278 (C$500,302). The amount is included in accounts payable on the Company's in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets.

In addition, on November 17, 2023, the Company received an amended claim filed against it from 2023 by Tradigital in the sum of $219,834 in owed fees plus the difference in stock price, 300,000 common shares of the Company, plus attorney fees and expenses. The case went to arbitration on March 11, 2024 and the Company defended its position. On April 4, 2024, the International Centre for Dispute Resolution indicated that no additional evidence is to be submitted and the hearings were declared closed as of April 29, 2024.The tribunal would endeavor to render the final decision within the timeframe provided for in the rules. Management agrees that outstanding fees, which are included in accounts payable in the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets, are only in the amount of $30,000, which was agreed to by the parties in earlier communications and through various e-mail correspondence. In addition, the management has no issue with the outstanding common shares to be provided to the claimant totaling 300,000. Management believes that the additional claim amount of $189,834 is without merit. Of the total of 300,000 common shares, 50,000 have been issued and the remaining 250,000 were previously disclosed as shares to be issued in the consolidated statements of stockholders' deficiency. On April 26, 2024, the arbitrator for this claim awarded Tradigital the sum of $118,170 which had been accrued by the Company as at December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024 and the remaining 250,000 common shares were not required to be issued by the Company.
