What Went Well and What Went Wrong

Key Takeaways for Investors

  • Sequential acceleration: construction-driven revenue ramp (to $311k) and first positive gross profit, but operations remain loss-making; bottom-line strength was primarily non-cash (derivative gain) rather than recurring profitability .
  • Liquidity trajectory: working capital deficit persists ($4.65M) despite stronger current assets; cash declined QoQ; accounts receivable build suggests near-term collections could help .
  • Capital structure risk: derivative liabilities fell markedly in Q2 (to $1.72M) from Q1 ($5.77M), aided by conversions and valuation changes; the $10M equity line is a catalyst if used to retire toxic notes and stabilize capital structure .
  • IP-led optionality: Advanced GET patent and prototype progress create optional future revenue streams; near-term execution remains construction-led while GET commercialization milestones develop .
  • Share supply increased: authorized shares raised to 5B (effective June 9); expect potential issuance under the equity line; monitor dilution versus debt retirement and growth funding .
  • Near-term trade: stock may react to additional construction wins, GET prototype updates, and concrete actions retiring toxic debt; absence of formal guidance and call keeps narrative sensitive to filings and press flow .
