GLOBAL GAS CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Global Gas Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” “Global Gas”), is a nascent pure-play hydrogen and carbon recovery project developer and industrial gas supplier. Global Gas intends to offer customers reliable, low-carbon and clean hydrogen, pure carbon dioxide, and other gases generated from a variety of feedstocks. Global Gas’ planned activities involve (i) the sourcing, identification, evaluation and vetting of offtake customers seeking to purchase industrial gases, (ii) the securing of local feedstocks, equipment, and utilities, (iii) the planning and management of projects and (iv) the structuring and financing of projects. Global Gas targets both privately- and publicly funded hydrogen development and selected carbon recovery projects, including projects supported by local-, county-, state-, and national-level governments in North America, Western Europe, and Great Britain.
Global Gas intends to serve traditional industrial gas customers and is particularly focused on plans to serve the rapidly growing hydrogen-as-energy-carrier market for use in hydrogen fuel-cell powered vehicles. Global Gas’ growth strategy is based on its developing ability to place modular generation, recovery, storage, and dispense solutions in closer geographic proximity to end customers — onsite in many cases — and its developing ability to produce and sell multiple outputs from a single feedstock input. Additionally, governments at all levels in North America and Western Europe have and are deploying substantial incentives to mitigate the impact of climate change and to decarbonize their economies. Global Gas believes it is well-placed to benefit as a developer of projects eligible for several of these incentives, such as the hydrogen tax production credits and the investment tax credits made available in the United States through the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (the “IR Act”).
On December 22, 2023, the Company received a notice (the “Notice”) from the staff of the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq indicating that, unless the Company timely requested a hearing before the Nasdaq Hearings Panel (the “Panel”), the Company’s securities (common stock and warrants) would be subject to suspension and delisting from Nasdaq on January 3, 2024, due to the Company’s failure to satisfy the initial listing standards of The Nasdaq Capital Market upon closing of the Company’s previously announced business combination in accordance with Nasdaq Rule 5101-2. Specifically, the Company was unable to demonstrate compliance with the Stockholders Equity, Publicly Held Shares, Market Value of Listed Securities and Market Value of Publicly Held Shares requirements set forth in Nasdaq Rule 5505. The Company timely requested a hearing before the Panel, which resulted in a stay of any suspension or delisting action pending the hearing. The Company was granted until June 20, 2024 to demonstrate compliance with the above-referenced listing rules but was unable to do so by such date. As a result, on June 21, 2024, the Company received notice that the Panel had determined to delist the Company’s securities from Nasdaq and would suspend trading in its securities on the exchange effective at the open of business on June 25, 2024. Since the delisting, the Company’s common stock and warrants have been trading on the over-the-counter “OTC” market, OTCQB, with trading symbol “HGAS” and “HGASW”, respectively.
Business Combination
On December 21, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), Global Gas Corporation (formerly known as Dune Acquisition Corporation) (prior to the Effective Time (as defined below), “Dune” and after the Effective Time, the “Company”), consummated the previously-announced business combination pursuant to that certain Unit Purchase Agreement, dated May 14, 2023 (as amended on August 22, 2023 and as further amended on November 24, 2023, the “Purchase Agreement”), by and among Dune, Global Gas Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Dune (“Holdings”), Global Hydrogen Energy LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Global Hydrogen”), and William Bennett Nance, Jr., Sergio Martinez and Barbara Guay Martinez (collectively, the “Sellers”), the equity holders of Global Hydrogen.
In connection with the closing of such business combination, the registrant changed its name from Dune Acquisition Corporation to Global Gas Corporation.
In accordance with the terms
and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Agreement and the other transactions contemplated thereby (the “Business Combination”),
at the closing of the Business Combination (the “Closing”) on December 21, 2023, (a) Dune contributed to Holdings
all of its assets (excluding its interests in Holdings and the aggregate amount of cash proceeds required to satisfy redemptions by Dune’s
public stockholders (“Stockholder Redemptions”)), and in exchange therefor, Holdings issued to Dune a number of common equity
units of Holdings (“Holdings Common Units”) which equal the number of total shares of Class A common stock, par value
$
The Business Combination was accomplished through what is commonly referred to as an “Up-C” structure, which is often used by partnerships and limited liability companies undertaking an initial public offering. The “Up-C” structure allowed the Sellers, who became equity holders of Holdings upon the consummation of the Combination Transactions, to retain their equity ownership in Holdings, an entity that is classified as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes, in the form of Holdings Common Units after the Closing, and provides potential future tax benefits for both the Company and Holdings’ equity holders (other than the Company) when they ultimately exchange their Holdings Common Units.

GLOBAL GAS CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In accordance with the
terms and subject to the conditions of the Purchase Agreement, at the Closing, the issued and outstanding Global Hydrogen Units of
each Seller were transferred, conveyed, assigned and delivered in exchange for (i) a number of shares of Class B Common Stock
equal to the product of (x) the number of Global Hydrogen Units held by such Seller and (y) the exchange ratio determined
by dividing (A) the quotient of $
The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, although Dune acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Global Hydrogen in the Business Combination, Dune was treated as the “acquired” company and Global Hydrogen was treated as the accounting acquirer for financial statement reporting purposes. Accordingly, the Business Combination was treated as the equivalent of Global Hydrogen issuing stock for the net assets of Dune, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Dune were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination were those of Global Hydrogen.
In connection with the
Business Combination, on December 1, 2023, Dune and Global Hydrogen entered into a forward purchase agreement (the “Forward
Purchase Agreement”) with each of Meteora Strategic Capital, LLC (“MSC”), Meteora Capital Partners, LP (“MCP”)
and Meteora Select Trading Opportunities Master, LP (“MSTO” and, collectively with MSC and MCP, the “Meteora Entities”)
for an OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transaction. Pursuant to the terms of the Forward Purchase Agreement, on the Closing Date, the Sellers
purchased
In connection with the
Forward Purchase Agreement, Dune entered into a subscription agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with the Meteora Entities.
Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Meteora Entities agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and Dune agreed to issue and sell
to the Meteora Entities, on the Closing Date,
On March 4, 2024,
Global Gas entered into forfeiture agreements (the “Forfeiture Agreements”) with each of Sergio Martinez, Barbara Guay Martinez
and William Bennett Nance, Jr., pursuant to which such individuals forfeited an aggregate of
The rights of holders of our Class A Common Stock and Warrants are governed by our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Charter”), our amended and restated bylaws (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”) and the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), and in the case of the Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants, the Warrant Agreement dated as of December 17, 2020, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”), as warrant agent.
On May 14, 2023, Dune, Dune Acquisition Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), and each of the Sellers entered into a lock-up agreement (the “Lock-up Agreement”), which became effective as of the Closing. Under the Lock-up Agreement, the Sponsor and the Sellers agreed to certain restrictions on transfer with respect to the shares of Company common stock and private placement warrants they hold as of the Closing, which restrictions amend and supersede the restrictions on transfer the Sponsor agreed to in that certain letter agreement, dated December 17, 2020, entered into by and among Dune, the Sponsor and Dune’s officers and directors in connection with Dune’s initial public offering (the “IPO”). The restrictions on transfer contained in the Lock-up Agreement apply to the Sellers and the existing equity holders of the Sponsor, and: (i) end, with respect to shares of Company common stock, on the earlier of twelve (12) months after (and excluding) the Closing Date and the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization, bankruptcy or other similar transaction that results in all of the shares of Company common stock being converted into cash, securities or other property; and (ii) ended, with respect to the Company’s private placement warrants, thirty (30) days after the Closing Date.
On the Closing Date, in connection with the Business Combination, the Company, Holdings and the Sellers entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), pursuant to which the Sellers have the right from time to time following the Closing, on the terms and conditions contained in the Exchange Agreement, to exchange their Holdings Common Units together with their shares of Class B Common Stock for, at the option of the Company, shares of Class A Common Stock or cash.
2. LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN
Going Concern
Since inception, the Company’s
primary sources of liquidity have been cash flows from contributions from a member and a related party and from revenue from customers.
The Company had $

GLOBAL GAS CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the Company’s revenue growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support further sales and marketing and research and development efforts. In order to finance these opportunities, the Company will need to raise additional financing. While there can be no assurances, the Company intends to raise such capital through issuances of additional equity. If additional financing is required from outside sources, the Company may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital when desired, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.
As a result of the above, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) ASC Subtopic 205-40, “Going Concern,” management has determined that the Company’s liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through twelve months from the date these condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements are available to be issued. These condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of accounting
The condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, our condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods, in the opinion of the Company’s management, have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. The accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements and related footnote disclosures should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2025 (the “2024 Form 10-K”).
Principles of consolidation
These condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, all wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries in which the Company has a controlling voting interest and, when applicable, variable interest entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. Investments in affiliates where the Company does not exert a controlling financial interest are not consolidated.
All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but such an election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.
This may make comparison of the Company’s condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements with those of another public company that is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company that has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

GLOBAL GAS CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are adjusted to reflect actual experience when necessary. Significant accounting estimates included in these financial statements are the determination of the fair value of the warrant liabilities. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Segment Information
ASC 280, “Segment
Reporting” (“ASC 280”), defines operating segments as components of an enterprise where discrete financial information
is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources
and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM is the chairman, who has ultimate responsibility for the operating performance
of the Company and the allocation of resources. The CODM reviews the assets, operating results, and financial metrics for the Company
as a whole to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that
there is only
Operating expenses, inclusive of general and administrative costs and sales and marketing costs, are reviewed and monitored by the CODM to manage and forecast cash to ensure enough capital is available to fund operations. The CODM also reviews operating expenses to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements. The categories of operating expenses, as reported on the statement of operations, are the significant segment expenses provided to the CODM on a regular basis.
Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that
potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution which, at times,
may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents
is comprised of cash in the bank which is subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. The Company considers all short-term
investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2025 and December 31,
2024, cash amounted to $
Deposits
From time to time the Company makes advanced payments to vendors for products to be sold to customers. These amounts are included as deposits on the condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheets.
Fair value measurements
Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The authoritative guidance establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability developed based upon the best information available in the circumstances. The categorization of financial assets and liabilities within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels:
| ● | Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
8
GLOBAL GAS CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
| ● | Level 2: Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs (other than quoted prices) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. | |
| ● | Level 3: Inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability. |
The carrying amounts of certain financial instruments, such as cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities. The fair value of debt instruments for which the Company has not elected fair value accounting is based on the present value of expected future cash flows and assumptions about the then-current market interest rates as of the reporting period and the creditworthiness of the Company. All of the Company’s debt is carried on the condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheet on a historical cost basis net of unamortized discounts and premiums because the Company has not elected the fair value option of accounting.
Stock - Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the fair value recognition provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 718. The Company issues restricted stock to employees and officers. Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments issued at the date of grant.
Warrants
The Company reviews the terms of warrants to purchase its common stock to determine whether warrants should be classified as liabilities or stockholders’ deficit in its condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheets. In order for a warrant to be classified in stockholders’ deficit, the warrant must be (i) indexed to the Company’s equity and (ii) meet the conditions for equity classification.
If a warrant does not meet the conditions for stockholders’ deficit classification, it is carried on the condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheets as a warrant liability measured at fair value, with subsequent changes in the fair value of the warrant recorded in other non-operating losses (gains) in the condensed unaudited consolidated statements of operations. If a warrant meets both conditions for equity classification, the warrant is initially recorded, at its relative fair value on the date of issuance, in stockholders’ deficit in the condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheets, and the amount initially recorded is not subsequently remeasured at fair value.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates revenue
through the resale of products. The Company considers customer agreements and purchase orders to be the contracts with the customer.
There is a single performance obligation, which is the Company’s promise to transfer the Company’s product to customers based
on specific payment and shipping terms in the arrangement. The entire transaction price is allocated to this single performance obligation.
Product revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of the product. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the
Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring products either upon receipt of the product or as defined in the contract. The
Company records revenue on a gross basis as a principal or on a net basis as an agent depending on the contracted arrangement. For the
three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024,
Income taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which will add required disclosures of significant expenses for each reportable segment, as well as certain other disclosures to help investors understand how the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) evaluates segment expenses and operating results. The new standard will also allow disclosure of multiple measures of segment profitability if those measures are used to allocate resources and assess performance. The amendments will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments are required to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in an entity’s financial statements. The Company adopted the guidance effective December 31, 2024 for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2024. There was no impact on the Company's reportable segment identified and additional required disclosures have been included in these financial statements (see Note 3).
Recently Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures,” which requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The standard is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. The standard will be effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on our condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, our audited consolidated financial statements as of the year ended December 31, 2024, and other information included elsewhere in this report. This discussion includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “continue,” or the negative of such terms or other similar expressions. Such statements include, but are not limited to, possible business combinations and the financing thereof, and related matters, as well as all other statements other than statements of historical fact included herein. Factors that might cause or contribute to such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those described in our other Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filings.
Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” to “we,” “us,” “our” and “the Company” generally refer to Global Hydrogen in in the present tense or Global Gas from and after the Business Combination.
Overview
Global Gas Corporation is a nascent pure-play hydrogen and carbon recovery project developer and industrial gas supplier that has commenced initial operations and is building a growing project development pipeline. Potential projects are added to the project development pipeline only after Global Hydrogen has met with the potential customer, discussed the scope of the project and discussed the project’s feasibility, preliminary sizing and design. Since its inception, Global Hydrogen has worked to establish relationships in the form of channel checks with non-exclusive independent equipment suppliers and discussions with vendors. As we expand our operations, we intend to offer potential customers reliable, low-carbon and clean hydrogen, pure carbon dioxide, and other gases generated from a variety of feedstocks. We intend for our operations to include (i) the sourcing, identification, evaluation and vetting of offtake customers seeking to purchase industrial gases, (ii) the securing of local feedstocks, equipment, and utilities, (iii) the planning and management of projects and (iv) the structuring and financing of our projects. We intend to offer our customers attractive pricing as we select and secure local, often waste, feedstock, and plan to deploy established industrial gas generation, storage, compression, and dispensing technologies in our projects. On each planned project, we seek to sell multiple gas products, sourced from a single feedstock, for offtake to customers. We also intend to utilize and bring to market secondary offtake products such as oxygen. Global Hydrogen is currently a minority-owned business and we are targeting both privately- and publicly-funded hydrogen development and selected carbon recovery projects, including projects supported by local, county, state, and national-level governments in North America, Western Europe, and Great Britain.
In selecting feedstock to generate industrial gases, we will primarily target renewable waste and will need to seek arrangements with owners of renewable waste feedstock, such as wastewater treatment plants, landfills, food waste processing facilities, and agricultural farms, to access their renewable waste feedstock. In addition to generating industrial gases from renewable waste feedstock, we plan to generate gases from non-renewable sources including pipeline natural gas. We will need to seek arrangement with owners of such non-renewable feedstock. On projects where a non-renewable, or high greenhouse gas output, energy source is used, as well as on selected other projects where such technology is required to produce clean hydrogen, we may deploy carbon recovery technology — more commonly known as carbon capture technology.
16
On the hydrogen side, we seek to serve traditional industrial gas customers, and are particularly focused on plans to serve the rapidly growing hydrogen-as-energy-carrier market, comprising heavy duty hauling transportation operators such as transit bus agencies, long haul truck fleet operators, truck leasing operators, and refuse collection truck operators, many of whom are considering deploying hydrogen fuel cell powertrain vehicles to decarbonize their fleets which currently runs almost exclusively on diesel. On the carbon dioxide side, we target both traditional industrial users of the gas, including food & beverage grade users such as brewers and beverage bottlers requiring carbonation, as well as emerging users such as the producers of green building materials.
Growth Strategy
Our growth strategy is based on developing our ability to place modular generation, recovery, storage, and dispensing solutions in closer geographic proximity to our end customers — onsite in many cases — and our ability to produce and sell multiple outputs from a single feedstock input. We hope that these plans, if successfully carried out, will allow us to produce clean hydrogen and carbon dioxide at a net cost normally seen only in larger scale plants and which supports competitive market prices for our end products. Additionally, governments at all levels in North America and Western Europe have and are deploying substantial incentives to mitigate the impact of climate change and to decarbonize their economies. We believe we are well-placed to benefit as a developer of projects eligible for several of these incentives, such as the hydrogen tax production credits and the investment tax credits made available in the United States through the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.
Global Hydrogen management actively reviews its project development pipeline and activity with potential customers. Potential projects are added to the project development pipeline only after Global Hydrogen has met with the potential customer, discussed the scope of the project and discussed the project’s feasibility, preliminary sizing and design. Management has determined that its projections are reasonable based on its review and status of its potential projects. Global Hydrogen has not yet successfully closed on any project.
Global Hydrogen is headquartered in New York, New York and its corporate website is globalhydrogen.co. Global Hydrogen’s website and the information contained on, or that can be accessed through, such website is not deemed to be incorporated by reference in, and is not considered part of, this proxy statement.
While Global Hydrogen does not have significant past operating history, Global Hydrogen’s management is aware that the future operating results and future financial condition of Global Hydrogen may be different than our past operating results and financial condition. Major factors that will have a material impact on future financial results and condition include whether Global Hydrogen will be able to sign contracts with customers and suppliers necessary to undertake the business plan. Even if such contracts are signed, our business plan is complex and there are many factors which could impact our operating results and financial condition including delays in projects, volatility in the price of our raw materials and products, and volatility in the demand for our services and products.

Results of Operations
As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s revenue was generated from one contract. As of March 31, 2025, the Company’s expenses have been related to initial operations and efforts to source materials for future projects and to undertake conversations with potential customers.

Revenue
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized $33,012 and $0, respectively, of revenue from a project recognized on a net basis.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased by $15,033 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily related to franchise tax expense, legal fees and professional fees.
Interest income
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company earned $0 and $7,566, respectively, of interest income on cash equivalents.
Interest expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred $3,468 and $0, respectively, of interest expense on its convertible promissory notes.
Change in fair value of warrants liabilities
The change in fair value of warrant liabilities of $4,040 and $(109,150), is recognized into other income and other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
18
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since inception, the Company’s primary sources of liquidity have been cash flows from contributions from a member and a related party. The Company had $74,026 in cash and cash equivalents, a working capital deficit of $444,996, and an accumulated deficit of $475,350 as of March 31, 2025.
The Company intends to operate with its current cash and cash equivalents on hand. In the future, the Company may borrow money and sell equity to finance its operations. As the Company has a limited operating history, its liquidity and capital resources may change substantially from past results.
The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the Company’s revenue growth rate, the timing and extent of spending to support further sales and marketing and research and development efforts. In order to finance these opportunities, the Company will need to raise additional financing. While there can be no assurances, the Company intends to raise such capital through issuances of additional equity. If additional financing is required from outside sources, the Company may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital when desired, the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition would be materially and adversely affected.
As a result of the above, in connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) ASC Subtopic 205-40, “Going Concern,” management has determined that the Company’s liquidity condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern through twelve months from the date these condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements are available to be issued. These condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024
The following table summarizes cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024:
| For the three months ended March 31, 2025 | For the three months ended March 31, 2024 | |||||||
| Net cash used in operating activities | $ | (39,413 | ) | $ | (1,021,806 | ) | ||
| Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities | $ | (707 | ) | $ | 125,000 | |||
Cash flows from operating activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $39,413, primarily related to the net loss for the period and decrease in deferred revenue and decrease in deposits.
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $1,021,806, primarily related to the net loss for the period and decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses.
Cash flows from financing activities
Net cash used in financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $707, consisting of payment to a related party.
Net cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $125,000, consisting of the proceeds received from forward purchase agreement contract.
19
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of our condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that impact the amounts reported in our condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods, if the revision affects both current and future periods.
A summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 3, “Summary of significant accounting policies” to the accompanying condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements. Certain of our accounting policies are considered critical, as these policies require significant, difficult or complex judgments by management, often requiring the use of estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our critical policies are summarized in Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
Fair Value Measurement
We determine the fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the fair value hierarchy established in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 identifies fair value as the exchange price, or exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The hierarchy describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, as follows:
| ● | Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. | |
| ● | Level 2: Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and inputs (other than quoted prices) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. | |
| ● | Level 3: Inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability. |
Stock - Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the fair value recognition provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 718. The Company issues restricted stock to employees and officers. Costs for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments issued at the date of grant.
Warrants
The Company reviews the terms of warrants to purchase its common stock to determine whether warrants should be classified as liabilities or stockholders’ deficit in its condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheets. In order for a warrant to be classified in stockholders’ deficit, the warrant must be (i) indexed to the Company’s equity and (ii) meet the conditions for equity classification.
If a warrant does not meet the conditions for stockholders’ deficit classification, it is carried on the condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheets as a warrant liability measured at fair value, with subsequent changes in the fair value of the warrant recorded in other non-operating losses (gains) in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. If a warrant meets both conditions for equity classification, the warrant is initially recorded, at its relative fair value on the date of issuance, in stockholders’ deficit in the condensed unaudited consolidated balance sheets, and the amount initially recorded is not subsequently remeasured at fair value.
20
Income taxes
The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under FASB ASC 740, which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
FASB ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and the measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense.

The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Company is expected to be an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). The JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Thus, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company has elected to take advantage of the extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards and to adopt certain of the reduced disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies. As a result of the accounting standards election, the Company will not be subject to the same implementation timeline for new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies which may make comparison of the Company’s condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements to those of other public companies more difficult.
For the impact of recently issued accounting pronouncements on the Company’s condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements, see Note 3 to the condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and incorporated herein by reference.
Intellectual Property
Global Hydrogen does not currently hold material intellectual property beyond certain logos and domain names assigned to the Company by William Bennett Nance, Jr.

Government Regulation
Global Hydrogen plans to own and operate hydrogen generation plants and to sell the resulting industrial gas. In many jurisdictions, hydrogen, oxygen, and other gases we will produce and sell, may be classified as fuel or controlled substances, and as such we may be required to obtain relevant licensing to produce, store, and sell such substances. We intend to acquire such licenses on a project by project and jurisdiction by jurisdiction basis.
Some of these gas generation plants we build or own may be in jurisdictions where CO2 emissions are subject to government regulation. When we produce hydrogen thermochemically, we will typically deploy carbon recovery systems to significantly reduce — below relevant jurisdictional limits — or eliminate the CO2 emissions which otherwise would be released to the atmosphere.
The construction of facilities that produce hydrogen will require compliance with government regulation, including local zoning and permitting requirements, such requirements will depend on the jurisdiction of each project.
The distribution of hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and oxygen will require compliance with certain regulatory federal and state regimes and will depend on the relevant jurisdictions.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls and procedures, no matter how well-conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired objectives of the control system. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15I and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2025. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2025, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We do not consider any claims, lawsuits, or proceedings that are currently pending against Global Gas, individually or in the aggregate, to be material to our business or likely to result in a material adverse effect on our future operating results, financial condition, or cash flows. From time to time, we may be subject to various claims, lawsuits, and other legal and administrative proceedings that may arise in the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims, lawsuits, and other proceedings may range in complexity and result in substantial uncertainty; it is possible that they may result in damages, fines, penalties, non-monetary sanctions, or relief.
