The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as its plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Its actual results and the timing of certain events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
Overview of Our Business
We are a
We have developed, patented, and commercialized proprietary technology that can be used for processing of various industrial and consumer-oriented fluids. Our patented Nano Reactor® is the critical components of the CTi Nano Neutralization® System which has been shown to reduce operating costs and increase yields in processing oils and fats. CTi holds and applied for numerous patents covering technology and various processes in US and Internationally, covering vegetable and crude oil refining, processed and frac water treatment, algae oil extraction, and alcoholic beverage enhancement. During our Fiscal 2022, we have continuously worked on developing additional technologies and products related to low pressure nano reactor (LPN™). LPN™ is designed to become a highly efficient mixer and homogenizer. We believe that LPN™ has a great commercial utilization opportunity by providing efficient and cost-effective solution in multiple fluid processing industries. LPN™ has a number of advantages over current mechanically operated mixers and homogenizers. Industrial application of our technology in produced and frac water treatment system, LPN™ along with our proprietary chemical formulations have depicted measurable and quantifiable advantages over industry standard processes and equipment. Additionally, our miniature low pressure nano reactor MLPN has become an integral part of Barmuze®, a small home appliance device for enhancing taste and extracting unwanted impurities typically present in alcoholic beverages.

Inflation and potential recession
We are, and our suppliers are experiencing significant broad-based inflation of
manufacturing and distribution costs as well as transportation challenges,
partially as a result of the pandemic. Although we do not believe that inflation
has had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of
operations, it may in the future. We are monitoring cost structures and
evaluating to what extent any such costs can be passed on to customers, taking
into account the overall impact of increasing inflation and interest rate
pressures on consumers. We expect input cost inflation to continue at least
throughout 2022. If we are unable to successfully manage the effects of
inflation, our business, operating results, cash flows and financial condition
may be adversely affected. Additionally, there have been various economic
indicators that
Management's Plan of Operation
We are continuously engaged in manufacturing of our Nano Reactor® and Nano Neutralization® Systems which are designed to help refine vegetable oils such as soybean, canola and rapeseed. Additionally, we have developed LPN™'s that provide commercial opportunity in industrial water treatment, enhancement of alcoholic beverages, and MLPN being utilized in a consumer small home appliance.

Management's plan is to generate income from operations by licensing our
technology globally through

We anticipate that we may need additional funding, and we may attempt to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to fund operations and to provide additional working capital. However, there is no assurance that such financing will be consummated or obtained in sufficient amounts necessary to meet our needs, or that we will be able to meet our future contractual obligations. Should management fail to obtain such financing, we may curtail its operations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Revenue Recognition
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations
are based upon our consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
Note 1 of the accompanying consolidated financial statements includes a summary of significant accounting policies, estimates, and methods used in the preparation of our financial statements. Accounting estimates are an integral part of the preparation of financial statements and are based on judgments by management using its knowledge and experience about the past and current events and assumptions regarding future events, all of which we consider to be reasonable. These judgments and estimates reflect the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain and that affect the carrying value of our assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent liabilities and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
12 Revenue Recognition
The Company follows the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients.
Revenue from sale of our Nano Reactor®and LPN™ is recognized when products are shipped from our manufacturing facilities as this is our sole performance obligation under these contracts and we have no continuing obligation to the customer.
The Company also recognizes revenue from its share of gross profit to be earned from distributors, as defined, which we treat as variable consideration and recognize using the most likely amount method. Estimates are available from our distributor which are considered in the determination of the most likely amount. However, given the lack of control over the sale to the end customer and the lack of history of prior sales, the amount of gross profit revenue recognized is limited to the actual amount of cash received under the contract which the Company has determined is not refundable and that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur.
In addition, the Company also recognizes revenues from usage fees of certain reactors. Usage fees are recognized based on actual usage by the customer.
Leases
The Company accounts for leases under guidance of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 842, which requires an entity to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all leases. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company accounts for the lease and non-lease components of its office lease as a single lease component. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Equity Method Investment
The Company accounts for investments in entities in which the Company has
significant influence over the entity's financial and operating policies, but
does not control, using the equity method of accounting. The equity method
investments are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently increased for
capital contributions and allocations of net income, and decreased for capital
distributions and allocations of net loss. Equity in net income (loss) from the
equity method investment is allocated based on the Company's economic interest.
The Company assesses its investment in equity method investments for
recoverability, and if it is determined that a loss in value of the investment
is other than temporary, the Company writes down the investment to its fair
value. The Company does not believe that the value of its equity method
investment was impaired as of
Share-Based Compensation
The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and
non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing
costs. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and
vesting to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by the
