These forward-looking statements are not historical facts but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections. We may use words such as anticipate, expect, intend, plan, believe, foresee, estimate and variations of these words and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control, are difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted. **These r**isks and uncertainties include the following:* | | | The availability and adequacy of our cash flow to meet our requirements; | | | | | | | | | | Economic, competitive, demographic, business and other conditions in our local and regional markets; | | | | | | | | | | Changes or developments in laws, regulations, or taxes in our industry; | | | | | | | | | | Actions taken or omitted to be taken by third parties including our suppliers and competitors, as well as legislative, regulatory, judicial and other governmental authorities; | | | | | | | | | | Competition in our industry; | | | | | | | | | | The loss of or failure to obtain any license or permit necessary or desirable in the operation of our business; | | | | | | | | | | Changes in our business strategy, capital improvements or development plans; | | | | | | | | | | The availability of additional capital to support capital improvements and development; and | | | | | | | | | | Other risks identified in this report and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission or the SEC. | | *This report should be read completely and with the understanding that actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.

We will not update forward-looking statements even though our situation may change in the future, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.* **Use of Term** Except as otherwise indicated by the context, references in this report to Company, **BioQuest**, **BQST,**we, us and our are references to **BioQuest Corp.**All references to USD or United States Dollars refer to the legal currency of the United States of America. | 3 | | | | | **Item 1. Business** **Description of the Business** *The following description of our business contains forward-looking statements relating to future events or our future financial or operating performance that involve risks and uncertainties, as set forth above under Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors described in this Annual Report, including those set forth above in the Special Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements or under the heading Risk Factors or elsewhere.* **Business Overview** The Company had previously intended to market, package, and distribute, Hemp-CBD based products. Our mission was to Create High End, Unique Content and aggregate all relevant CBD content in the Nutraceutical and Pharmaceutical markets. In 2022, after the effects of Covid, the Company decided to change direction and acquire companies in the green energy sector On June 23, 2022, the Company executed a Letter of Intent with the shareholders of Progressus Clean Technologies, Inc. (Progressus), whereby the Company shall acquire substantially all of the issued and outstanding shares of Progressus, a private company incorporated in Delaware. Progressus is a venture stage green technology company focused on the development of novel hydrogen generation and separation technologies. Progressus owns the rights to exclusive intellectual property that can enable the extraction of dilute amounts of hydrogen at high purity from a variety of different gas streams often called syngas. Utilizing its unique cell design, fabrication, and membrane technology, oxygen free electrolysis is possible at industry leading efficiencies with an improved safety profile. Green power and green hydrogen often wasted and/or curtailed because it is produced at off-peak periods, too dilute, or in such small quantities that it cant be extracted and used in a meaningful way. As such, it is often burned or deemed a contaminant. Governments, natural gas utilities, large industrials and the public are all calling for technological innovation and Progressus has a solution. Progressus has partnered with industry leading experts that have allowed accelerated technology development that is capable of addressing these problems. Progressus, which is the Latin word for advancement, is very appropriate because the company has the goal to transform the way the world thinks about green energy. For homes, businesses, and industry alike, Progressus technology can assist with meeting the green energy demands of the future. | 4 | | | | | **Environmental Laws and Regulations** Our operations and properties are subject to laws and regulations relating to environmental protection, including those governing air emissions, water discharges and waste management, and workplace health and safety. In addition, certain of our proposed products are regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and comparable state regulatory agencies. **Seasonality** We do not expect any seasonality in our business. Our fiscal year end is April 30. **Employees** We have no active employees as all existing consulting contracts were put on hold at September 30, 2021. We anticipate we can reactivate some of these individuals or additional employees in the next 12 months, as needed. We do not feel that we would have any unmanageable difficulty in locating needed staff. None of the employees is represented by a labor union for purposes of collective bargaining. The Company considers its relations with the employees to be good. **** **Bankruptcy or Similar Proceedings** There has been no bankruptcy, receivership, or similar proceeding. **WHERE YOU CAN GET ADDITIONAL INFORMATION** We file annual, quarterly, and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC. You may read and copy our reports or other filings made with the SEC at the SECs Public Reference Room, located at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, DC 20549. You can obtain information on the operations of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. You can also access these reports and other filings electronically on the SECs web site, www.sec.gov. **Item 1A. Risk Factors** **** We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item. An investment in the Companys common stock involves a high degree of risk. One should carefully consider the following risk factors in evaluating an investment in the Companys common stock. If any of the following risks actually occurs, the Companys business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be materially and adversely affected. In such case, the price of the Companys common stock could decline, and one could lose all or part of ones investment. One should also refer to the other information set forth in this report, including the Companys consolidated financial statements and the related notes. **Our business and future operations may be adversely affected by epidemics and pandemics, such as the recent COVID-19 outbreak.** We may face risks related to health epidemics and pandemics or other outbreaks of communicable diseases, which could result in a widespread health crisis that could adversely affect general commercial activity and the economies and financial markets of the country as a whole. For example, the recent outbreak of COVID-19, has been declared by the World Health Organization to be a pandemic, has spread across the globe, including the United States of America. A health epidemic or pandemic or other outbreak of communicable diseases, such as the current COVID-19 pandemic, poses the risk that we, or potential business partners may be disrupted or prevented from conducting business activities for certain periods of time, the durations of which are uncertain, and may otherwise experience significant impairments of business activities, including due to, among other things, operational shutdowns or suspensions that may be requested or mandated by national or local governmental authorities or self-imposed by us, our customers or other business partners. While it is not possible at this time to estimate the impact that COVID-19 could have on our business, our customers, our potential customers, suppliers or other current or potential business partners, the continued spread of COVID-19, the measures taken by the local and federal government, actions taken to protect employees, and the impact of the pandemic on various business activities could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. | 5 | | | | | **The Accompanying Financial Statements Have Been Prepared Assuming the Company Will Continue as A Going Concern.** **** The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of its assets and the liquidation of its liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has generated no revenues, has accumulated a loss since formation and currently lacks the capital to effectively pursue its business plan. This raises substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty. **We May Continue to Lose Money, And If We Do Not Achieve Profitability, We May Not Be Able to Complete the pending Acquisition of Progressus Green Technologies.** Since our formation, we have generated no revenues from operations, and have incurred expenses and losses. In addition, we expect to continue to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future. As a result, we will need to generate sufficient revenues to achieve profitability, which may not occur. Even if we do achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. We expect to have quarter-to-quarter fluctuations in revenues, expenses, losses, and cash flow, some of which could be significant. Results of operations will depend upon numerous factors. Some of these factors, such as market acceptance of our product and competition, are beyond our control. **The Company Is Subject to The Risks Inherent in The Creation of a New Business.** The Company is subject to substantially all the risks inherent in the creation of a new business. The implementation of our business strategy is still in the development stage. Our business and operations should be considered to be in the development stage and subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business venture. Accordingly, our intended business and operations may not prove to be successful in the near future, if at all. Any future success that we might enjoy will depend upon many factors, several of which may be beyond our control, or which cannot be predicted at this time, and which could have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition, business prospects, and operations and the value of an investment in the Company. **We May Be Subject to Government Laws and Regulations Particular to Our Operations with Which We May Be Unable to Comply.** We may not be able to comply with all current and future government regulations which are applicable to our business. Our business operations are subject to all government regulations normally incident to conducting business (e.g., occupational safety and health acts, workmens compensation statutes, unemployment insurance legislation, income tax, and social security laws and regulations, environmental laws and regulations, consumer safety laws and regulations, etc.) as well as to governmental laws and regulations applicable to small public companies and their capital formation efforts. Although we will make every effort to comply with applicable laws and regulations, we can provide no assurance of our ability to do so, nor can we predict the effect of those regulations on our proposed business activities. Our failure to comply with material regulatory requirements would likely have an adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business and could result in our cessation of active business operations. **Our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, which may hinder our ability to obtain future financing.** **** Our independent registered public accounting firms have issued their reports, which includes an explanatory paragraph for going concern uncertainty on our consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended April 30, 2022, and 2021. Because we have not yet generated revenues from our operations our ability to continue as a going concern is currently heavily dependent upon our ability to obtain additional financing to sustain our operations. Such financing may take the form of the issuance of common or preferred stock or debt securities or may involve bank financing. The fact that our auditors have issued a going concern opinion may hinder our ability to obtain additional financing in the future. Currently, we have no commitments to obtain any additional financing, and there can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. | 6 | | | | | **If we encounter unforeseen difficulties with our business or operations in the future that require us to obtain additional working capital, and we cannot obtain additional working capital on favorable terms, or at all, our business may suffer.** Our cash, on hand totaled approximately $33,540 at April 30, 2022. To date, we have relied primarily upon cash from the private sale of equity securities to generate the working capital needed to finance our operations. We may encounter unforeseen difficulties with our business or operations in the future that may deplete our capital resources more rapidly than anticipated. As a result, we may be required to obtain additional working capital in the future through bank credit facilities, public or private debt or equity financings, or otherwise. We have not identified other sources for additional funding and cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are required to raise additional working capital in the future, such financing may be unavailable to us on favorable terms, if at all, or may be dilutive to our existing stockholders. If we fail to obtain additional working capital as and when needed, such failure could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Furthermore, such lack of funds may inhibit our ability to respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated capital needs, or may force us to reduce operating expenses, which could significantly harm the business and development of operations. Because our independent auditors have expressed doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern, as reported in their report on our financial statements, our ability to raise capital may be severely hampered. Similarly, our ability to borrow any such capital may be more expensive and difficult to obtain until this going concern uncertainty is resolved. **We operate in a highly competitive environment, and if we are unable to compete with our competitors, our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects could be materially adversely affected.** We operate in a highly competitive environment. Our competition includes all other companies that are in the business of selling cannabis-based products or other related items. A highly competitive environment could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects. **We may not be able to compete successfully with other established companies offering the same or similar products and, as a result, we may not achieve our projected revenue and user targets.** If we are unable to compete successfully with other businesses in our planned markets, we may not achieve our projected revenue and/or customer targets. We compete with both start-up and established companies. Compared to our business, some of our competitors may have greater financial and other resources, have been in business longer, have greater name recognition and be better established in our markets of choice. **We have yet to achieve a profit and may not achieve a profit in the near future, if at all.** We have not yet produced a net profit and may not in the near future, if at all. We have not achieved profitability and cannot be certain that we will be able to sustain our current growth rate or realize sufficient revenue to achieve profitability. Further, many of our competitors have a significantly larger user base and revenue stream but have yet to achieve profitability. Our ability to continue as a going concern may be dependent upon raising capital from financing transactions, increasing revenue throughout the year, and keeping operating expenses below our revenue levels in order to achieve positive cash flows, none of which can be assured. | 7 | | | | | **** **Our lack of adequate D&O insurance may also make it difficult for us to retain and attract talented and skilled directors and officers.** In the future we may be subject to additional litigation, including potential class action and stockholder derivative actions. Risks associated with legal liability are difficult to assess and quantify, and their existence and magnitude can remain unknown for significant periods of time. To date, we have not obtained directors and officers liability (D&O) insurance. Without adequate D&O insurance, the amounts we would pay to indemnify our officers and directors should they be subject to legal action based on their service to the Company could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Furthermore, our lack of adequate D&O insurance may make it difficult for us to retain and attract talented and skilled directors and officers, which could adversely affect our business **We expect to incur substantial expenses to meet our reporting obligations as a public company. In addition, failure to maintain adequate financial and management processes and controls could lead to errors in our financial reporting and could harm our ability to manage our expenses.** We estimate that it will cost approximately $250,000 annually to maintain the proper management and financial controls for our filings required as a public company. In addition, if we do not maintain adequate financial and management personnel, processes and controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial performance on a timely basis, which could cause a decline in our stock price and adversely affect our ability to raise capital. **We have limited or no control over the manufacturing and quality of the products we plan to sell.** We will not directly manufacture any of the proposed products that we currently plan to sell. Consequently, we have limited or no control over manufacturing practices at the suppliers from whom we procure the products we plan to sell. We put forth considerable efforts to ensure that the products we plan to sell are safe and comply with all applicable regulations. In spite of these efforts, there is a risk that we could inadvertently resell products which fail to comply with applicable regulations or have other quality defects. If this were to occur, we could be forced to conduct a product recall, defend regulatory or civil claims, or take other actions, any of which could have a material adverse effect upon our business. **We face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that the products we manufacture or sell allegedly cause personal injury.** We face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that the products we plan to sell allegedly cause personal injury. Although we have not experienced any significant losses due to product liability claims, we may experience such losses in the future. While our suppliers maintain insurance against product liability claims but cannot be certain that such coverage will be adequate to cover any liabilities that we may incur, or that such insurance will continue to be available on acceptable terms. A successful claim brought against us in excess of available insurance coverage, or any claim that results in significant adverse publicity, could have a material adverse effect upon our business. **We may be unable to keep pace with changes in the industries that we serve and advancements in technology as our business and market strategy evolves.** As changes in the industries, we serve occur or macroeconomic conditions fluctuate we may need to adjust our business strategies or find it necessary to restructure our operations or businesses, which could lead to changes in our cost structure, the need to write down the value of assets, or impact our profitability. We will also make investments in existing or new businesses, including investments in technology and expansion of our business plans. These investments may have short-term returns that are negative or less than expected and the ultimate business prospects of the business may be uncertain. As our business and market strategy evolves, we also will need to respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards in a cost-effective and timely manner in order to remain competitive, such as adaptive learning technologies, better and more interactive products and web accessibility standards. The need to respond to technological changes may require us to make substantial, unanticipated expenditures. There can be no assurance that we will be able to respond successfully to technological change. | 8 | | | | | **If we are unable to protect the confidentiality of our trade secrets, our business and competitive position would be harmed.** The Company plans on relying on trade secrets, including unpatented know-how, technology, and other proprietary information, to maintain our competitive position. We will seek to protect these trade secrets, in part, by entering into non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements with parties who have access to them, such as our employees, corporate collaborators, outside scientific collaborators, contract manufacturers, consultants, advisors and other third parties. We will seek to protect our confidential proprietary information, in part, by entering into confidentiality and invention or patent assignment agreements with our employees and consultants; currently no such agreements have been entered into with relevant parties. Moreover, to the extent we enter into such agreements, any of these parties may breach the agreements and disclose our proprietary information, including our trade secrets, and we may not be able to obtain adequate remedies for such breaches. Enforcing a claim that a party illegally disclosed or misappropriated a trade secret is difficult, expensive, and time-consuming, and the outcome is unpredictable. In addition, some courts inside and outside the United States are less willing or unwilling to protect trade secrets. If any of our trade secrets were to be lawfully obtained or independently developed by a competitor, we would have no right to prevent them, or those to whom they communicate it, from using that technology or information to compete with us. If any of our trade secrets were to be disclosed to or independently developed by a competitor, our competitive position would be harmed. **We rely in part on trade secrets to protect our technology, and our failure to obtain or maintain trade secret protection could limit our ability to compete.** We rely on trade secrets to protect some of our technology and proprietary information, especially where we believe patent protection is not appropriate or obtainable. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect. Litigating a claim that a third party had illegally obtained and was using our trade secrets would be expensive and time consuming, and the outcome would be unpredictable. Moreover, if our competitors independently develop similar knowledge, methods, and know-how, it will be difficult for us to enforce our rights and our business could be harmed. **Our products may not gain commercial or market acceptance, which would prevent us from achieving increased revenues and market share.** **** The development of a successful market for our products may be adversely affected by a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including: | | our failure to produce products that compete favorably against other products on the basis of cost, quality, and performance. | | | | any limitations or warnings on our products approved labeling. | | | | the willingness of the target population to try our new technology and whether or not customers will accept our new technology. | | | | our failure to develop and maintain successful relationships with distributors, project developers and other resellers, as well as strategic partners; and | | | | the strength of marketing and distribution support and timing of market introduction. | | If our products fail to gain market acceptance, we would be unable to realize revenues, gain or increase market share and achieve and sustain profitability. **Our Common Stock May Be Considered a Penny Stock And Be Subject to the Penny Stock Rules of The Securities Exchange Commission.** Our common stock may be subject to the penny stock rules adopted under Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules generally apply to companies whose common stock is not listed on The NASDAQ Stock Market or other national securities exchange and trades at less than $5.00 per share, other than companies that have had average revenue of at least $6,000,000 for the last three years or that have tangible net worth of at least $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has been operating for three or more years). These rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade penny stock to persons other than established customers complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided not to trade penny stocks because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. If we remain subject to the penny stock rules for any significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market for our securities. If our securities are subject to the penny stock rules, investors will find it more difficult to dispose of our securities. | 9 | | | | | **Future sales of our common stock could put downward selling pressure on our common stock, and adversely affect the per share price. There is a risk that this downward pressure may make it impossible for an investor to sell shares of common stock at any reasonable price, if at all.** Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market or the perception that such sales could occur, could put downward selling pressure on our common stock and adversely affect its market price. **We do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.** We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future, but plan rather to retain earnings, if any, for the operation, growth, and expansion of our business. Because the Company does not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future which may lower expected returns for investors, and as such our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their investment unless they sell their shares of common stock. **Risks Relating to the Internet** **Changing technology could adversely affect the operation of our website.** The Internet, online commerce and online advertising markets are characterized by rapidly changing technologies, evolving industry standards, frequent new product, and service introductions, and changing customer preferences. Our future success will depend on our ability to adapt to rapidly changing technologies and address its customers changing preferences. However, we may experience difficulties that delay or prevent us from being able to do so. **Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments** None. **** **Item 2. Properties** Our executive office is located at 4570 Campus Drive, Suite 23, Newport Beach, CA 92660. The telephone number at our principal executive office is (714) 978-4425. This space is leased directly by the CEO of the Company who is reimbursed by Company. Our website is www.bioquestcorp.com, and our email address is business@bioquestcorp.com. We do not have any investments or interests in any real estate. We do not invest in real estate mortgages, nor do we invest in securities of, or interests in, persons primarily engaged in real estate activities. | 10 | | | | | **Item 3. Legal Proceedings** We know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against our company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which our director, officer, or any affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest. **Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures** Not Applicable. **** **Part II** **Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters** **** ****The shares of our common stock are not currently listed for sale on any exchange, although we do plan to attempt to have our shares quoted for sale or the OTC Bulletin Board. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in having our shares quoted or traded on any public market. The following table sets forth the high and low bid prices for our Common Stock per quarter for the past two years as reported by the OTC Markets, based on our fiscal year end April 30, and taking into effect the 1-2000 reverse split that occurred on November 14, 2019. These prices represent quotations between dealers without adjustment for retail markup, markdown or commission and may not represent actual transactions. | | | Price Ranges | | | | Fiscal Year Ended April 30, 2022 | | High | | | Low | | | | First Quarter | | $ | 1.25 | | | $ | 0.75 | | | | Second Quarter | | | 1.00 | | | | .65 | | | | Third Quarter | | | .75 | | | | .52 | | | | Fourth Quarter | | | .52 | | | | .52 | | | | Fiscal Year Ended April 30, 2021 | | | | | | | | | First Quarter | | $ | 27.00 | | | $ | 22.00 | | | | Second Quarter | | | 22.00 | | | | 4.20 | | | | Third Quarter | | | 5.50 | | | | .75 | | | | Fourth Quarter | | | 1.95 | | | | .59 | | | Our transfer agent is Globex Transfer, LLC, whose address is 780 Deltona Blvd., Suite 202, Deltona, FL 32725, telephone number (813) 344-4490, and email mt@globextransfer.com. **Record Holders** As of April 30, 2022, there were 11,310,230 shares of the registrants $0.001 par value common stock issued and outstanding and were owned by approximately 200 holders of record and 1,350,8387 shares in the public float. **Penny Stock Regulation** Shares of our common stock will probably be subject to rules adopted by the SEC that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in those securities is provided by the exchange or system). The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which contains the following: | | | a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; | | | 11 | | | | | | | | a description of the brokers or dealers duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to violation to such duties or other requirements of securities laws; | | | | | a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; | | | | | a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; | | | | | definitions of significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and | | | | | such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size, and format), as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation. | | Prior to effecting any transaction in penny stock, the broker-dealer also must provide the customer the following: | | | the bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; | | | | | the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; | | | | | the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and | | | | | monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customers account. | | In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchasers written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. Holders of shares of our common stock may have difficulty selling those shares because our common stock will probably be subject to the penny stock rules. **Description of Registrants Securities** We have authorized capital stock consisting of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (Common Stock), and no shares of preferred stock. **** **Equity Compensation Plans** The Company has registered its 2021 Equity Compensation Plan, with the SEC on June 29, 2021. The Plan authorizes up to 2,000,000 S-8 shares of company common stock to be issued to its officers, directors, consultants, and any other persons whom the Board of Directors wishes to incentivize to contribute to the Company. The Company had issued 1,392,251 shares under this plan as of July 22,2022 with 607,749 available for further issuance. **Warrants, Options and Convertible Securities** The Company issued multiple notes payable in the amount of $40,000 due in January and February 2022, with interest at 6% and convertible in common shares at $1.00 per share. The notes were in technical default at April 30, 2022. The Company extended these notes in July 2022 to September 30, 2022, for which the Company agreed to compensate the holders through the issuance of 40,000 shares of the Companys common stock. The Company issued a note payable in September 2020 due in one year in the amount of $27,500 including interest at 10%. The note is convertible at a 40% discount to market price after 90 days. The company recorded a note discount of $2,500. In November 2020 the Company issued an additional note payable due in one year in the amount of $30,800 including interest at 10%. The note is convertible at a 60% discount to market price. The Company recorded a note discount of $2,800. In March 2022 the Company issued a note payable for $85,000 due on March 1, 2023, and which may be converted in 170,000 of the Companys common stock. | 12 | | | | | Other than the aforementioned we do not have any outstanding warrants, options, or convertible securities. **Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities** **** During the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company issued 65,000 shares for $65,000 cash. The Company issued 2,514,497 on October 29, 2021, shares for settlement of amounts due to Officers and consultants. 1,257,251 were S-8 Registered shares and 1, 257,246 were unregistered. The Company issued 40,000 shares of unregistered shares for extension of notes payable on July 14, 2022. In March 2022, the Company received proceeds of $85,000 in exchanged for the issuance of a convertible promissory note with a principal balance of $85.000. The convertible note bears interest at 8% per annum and matures on the 12-month anniversary from issuance. The note is convertible into at the option holder at $0.50 per share. **Repurchase of Equity Securities** None. **Dividends** We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. For the foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock. Any future determination to pay dividends will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be dependent upon then existing conditions, including our financial condition and results of operations, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, business prospects, and other factors that the board of directors considers relevant. **** **Section Rule 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934** The Companys shares are covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended that imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouses). For transactions covered by the Rule, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase and have received the purchasers written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the Rule may affect the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities and may affect your ability to sell your shares in the secondary market. Section 15(g) also imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell penny securities. These rules require a one-page summary of certain essential items. The items include the risk of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary marketing; terms important to in understanding of the function of the penny stock market, such as bid and offer quotes, a dealers spread and broker/dealer compensation; the broker/dealer compensation, the broker/dealers duties to its customers, including the disclosures required by any other penny stock disclosure rules; the customers rights and remedies in causes of fraud in penny stock transactions; and, FINRAs toll free telephone number and the central number of the North American Administrators Association, for information on the disciplinary history of broker/dealers and their associated persons. **Item 6. Selected Financial Data** **** We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item. | 13 | | | | | **Item 7.

In September 2021, the Company and its employees and contractors entered into a settlement agreement in which the Company agreed to issue shares of common stock in settlement of accrued compensation. As part of that settlement, the employees and contractors also agreed to end their compensation under their respective agreements until the board determined that the Company could pay for compensation incurred. Stock Payable Compensation was $206,700 for the year ended April 30,2022 as compared with $530,000 for the year ended April 30,2021. The $206,700 incurred in the year ended April 30, 2022, represents compensation payable in common shares granted in the period but not issued in the period. Professional Fees were $87,375 for the year ended April 30,2022 as compared with $152,162 for the year ended April 30,2021. The Company expects future professional fees to increase over 2022 levels as the Company works towards completion of potential acquisitions. General and administrative expenses consisted primarily of marketing, product development and general expenses. These totaled $56,275 for the year ended April 30,2022 as compared to $110,387 for the year ended April 30, 2021. The Company expects future professional fees to increase over 2022 levels as the Company works towards completion of potential acquisitions. Derivative gain was $75,516 for the year ended April 30,2022 compared to derivative expense of $85,775 for the year ended April30,2021. Changes in gains or losses will primarily be dependent upon changes in the underlying price of shares of our common stock traded on the OTC Markets bulletin board. Interest expense was $78,618 for the year ended April 30,2022 compared to $37,638 for the year ended April 30, 2021, | 15 | | | | | *Net (Loss)* The Company had a net loss of $821,022 for the year ended April 30,2022 as compared to a net loss of $2,323,962 for the year ended April 30,2021. **Liquidity and Capital Resources** The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Companys ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. Since its inception, the Company has been funded by related parties through capital investment and borrowing of funds. As of April 30,2022, the Company had total current assets of $33,540 consisting of cash. As of April 30, 2022 the Company had total current liabilities of $466,530. Current liabilities consisted primarily of accounts payable and accrued liabilities and amounts due from convertible notes outstanding. This resulted in a working capital deficit of $432,990 at April 30,2022 **Cash used in Operating Activities** For the year ended April 30,2022 the Company used cash in operating activities of $116,720 compared to cash used of $193,206 for the year ended April 30, 2021 **Cash flow from Financing Activities** For year ended April 30,2022 cash provided by financing activities was $ 150,000 compared to $193,300 for the year provided for the same period ended April 30, 2021. **Subsequent Events** On June 23, 2022, the Company executed a Letter of Intent with the shareholders of Progressus Clean Technologies, Inc. (Progressus).whereby the Company shall acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Progressus, a private company incorporated in Delaware. Progressus is a venture stage green technology company focused on the development of novel hydrogen generation and separation technologies. Progressus owns the exclusive rights and intellectual property pertaining to the Advanced Electrolyzer System for the production of hydrogen from dilute syngas. **Future Financings** We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund planned acquisitions and development activities. Since inception, we have financed our cash flow requirements through issuance of common stock and loans to third parties. As we expand our activities, we may, and most likely will, continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending receipt of revenues. Additionally, we anticipate obtaining additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings, to the extent available, or to obtain additional financing to the extent necessary to augment our working capital. In the future we will need to generate sufficient revenues from sales in order to eliminate or reduce the need to sell additional stock or obtain additional loans. There can be no assurance we will be successful in raising the necessary funds to execute our business plan. | 16 | | | | | We anticipate that we will incur operating losses in the next twelve months. Our lack of operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets. Such risks for us include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model and the management of growth. To address these risks, we must, among other things, obtain a customer base, implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, continually develop and upgrade our business model and website, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. **** **Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements** We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or 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 are material to stockholders. **Critical Accounting Policies** Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. In general, managements estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management. **Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements** The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. **Contractual Obligations** We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item. **Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk** We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item. | 17 | | | | | **** **Item 8.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended April 30, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. **Explanatory Opinion - Going Concern** **** The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company suffered net losses from operations from inception, has a working capital deficit of approximately $433,000 and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $10,665,000 as of April 30, 2022 which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 3. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. **Basis for Opinion** **** These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. | 19 | | | | | **Critical Audit Matters** **** The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate. **Going Concern** **** *Critical Audit Matter Description* ** The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Managements plans for addressing going concern matter are described in Note 3. *Critical Audit Matter Determination* ** As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company suffered a net loss from operations, a working capital deficit and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $10.7 million which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. ** *How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit* ** Our audit procedures included: | | - | Identifying the conditions and events noted above that, when considered in the aggregate, indicate there is substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern | | | | - | Evaluating managements plans in connection with their intent to raise additional debt financing | | | | - | The potential business development to overcome the presumption of a going concern | | Reviewing and evaluating the financial statement presentation and disclosure regarding the substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. **Embedded Conversion Feature** *Critical Audit Matter Description* The Company has numerous notes payable from prior years with conversions rates that are determined by the closing bid price based on averages over a given number of trading days based on the volume weighted average trading price preceding the conversion date. This and other factors require the embedded conversion feature to be bifurcated and the fair value of the feature to be remeasured at each reporting period. Calculations and accounting for the notes payable and embedded conversion features require managements judgments related to initial and subsequent recognition of the debt and related conversions features, use of a valuation model, and determination of the appropriate inputs used in the selected valuation model. | 20 | | | | | *Critical Audit Matter Determination* The embedded conversion features and resulting derivative liability is a highly complex area of accounting with significant impact on the liabilities, additional paid in capital and statement of operations of the Company. It takes a high degree of training to understand and recognize the accounting implications of the conversion features and to understand the assumptions and impact of the specific assumptions on the valuation model used in the calculation of the derivative liability. *Critical Audit Matter Audit Procedures* Our audit procedures related to evaluating the Companys accounting for the convertible note payables with embedded conversion feature, were as follows: | | - | We read the various instruments, identified the embedded conversion feature, confirmed the amount of the outstanding debt, and recalculated the accrued interest. | | | | | | | | | - | We reviewed the assumptions used to calculate the derivative liabilities at the balance sheet date and the related accounting entries. | | | | | | | | | - | We performed independent calculations on a test basis of specific derivatives to evaluate the model used in calculating the derivatives at various measurement dates. | | *Critical Audit Matter Relevant Financial Statement Disclosures* | | - | We read the Companys disclosures related to the derivative liabilities and changes during the year as a result of mark to market to ensure the changes were properly accounted for and fully disclosed in the financial statements. | | */s/ L J Soldinger Associates, LLC* ** Deer Park Illinois August 12, 2022 We have served as the Companys auditor since 2022 PCAOB ID: 318 | 21 | | * | 22 | | **Bioquest Corp.** **Balance Sheets** | | | | | | | | | | | | | | April 30, 2022 | | | April 30, 2021 | | | | | | | | | | | | | Assets | | | | | | | | | | | Current Assets | | | | | | | | | | | Cash | | $ | 33,540 | | | $ | 260 | | | | Prepaid Expenses | | | -

ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS** Bioquest Corp.(the Company) was originally incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 17, 2011, as Renaissance Films Inc. On September 26, 2011, the Company changed its name to Sedition Films Inc. and on May 1, 2014, the Company changed its name to Select-TV Solutions, Inc. The Company was organized for the purpose of producing documentary films. On October 10, 2019, there was a change in control of the Company with the purchase of 270,000,000 of the Companys Common stock and on that date the Company changed its name to Bioquest Corp. On October 12, 2019, the Company elected a new Board of Directors and approved a 2,000 to 1 Reverse Stock Split resulting in the reduction of the outstanding shares of the Companys Common Stock from 454,254,585 shares to 237,233 shares of Common Stock. All common shares and per common share data in these financial statements and related notes hereto have been retroactively adjusted to account for the effect of the reverse stock split for all periods presented. The total number of authorized common shares and the par value thereof were not changed by the reverse stock split. The Company had previously intended to market, package, and distribute, Hemp-CBD based products. Our mission was to Create High End, Unique Content and aggregate all relevant CBD content in the Nutraceutical and Pharmaceutical markets. In 2022, after the effects of Covid, the Company decided to change direction and acquire companies in the green energy sector. The Company has executed a letter of intent on June 23,2022 to acquire its first energy company. (See Subsequent Events Note 8). **NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES** Basis of presentation and Estimates* The Companys financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. Those estimates include the fair value of our common shares. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing, and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Companys system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that 1) recorded transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being presented. *Income Taxes* The Company follows FASB ASC Subtopic 740, Income Taxes, for recording the provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change. | 27 | | ** *Stock-based Compensation* ** The Company follows FASB ASC Subtopic 718, Stock Compensation, for accounting for stock-based compensation. The guidance requires that new, modified, and unvested share-based payment transactions with employees, such as grants of stock options and restricted stock, be recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair value at the grant date and recognized as compensation expense over their vesting periods. *Basic Loss Per Share* FASB ASC Subtopic 260, Earnings Per Share, provides for the calculation of Basic and Diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. All potentially dilutive securities including stock options and stock payable have been excluded from the computations since they would be antidilutive. However, these dilutive securities could potentially dilute earnings per share in the future. As of April 30,2022, and 2021 the Company had 308,141 and 129,333 shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of convertible shares not included in earnings per share as they would be antidilutive. *Cash and Cash Equivalents* Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Cash and cash equivalents are on deposit with financial institutions without any restrictions. At April 30, 2022, and 2021, cash equivalents amounted to $ 33,540 and $260. *Revenue Recognition* *Fair Value of Financial Instruments* Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC 820) defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) a reporting entitys own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below: Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. | 28 | | Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including 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; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. Our company estimates the fair value of financial instruments using the available market information and valuation methods. Considerable judgment is required in estimating fair value. Accordingly, the estimates of fair value may not be indicative of the amounts our company could realize in a current market exchange. As of April 30, 2022, and 2021, the carrying value of accounts payable and loans that are required to be measured at fair value, approximated fair value due to the short-term nature and maturity of these instruments. **NOTE 3 GOING CONCERN** The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had a Stockholders Deficit at April 30, 2022, of $432,990 as its liabilities exceeded its assets. These factors among others raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has executed a letter of intent to acquire a green hydrogen energy company, but has limited resources, no source of operating cash flow and no assurance that sufficient funding will be available. Management will be required to raise funds through a combination of equity and/or debt financing for the further development of its hydrogen technology business. The success of these plans will depend upon the ability of the Company to generate cash flows from equity and/or debt financing. These conditions indicate the existence of material uncertainties which may cast significant doubt on the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. **NOTE 4 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS** As of April 30, 2021, there were $1,258,250 in accrued compensations due to officers and shareholders and $21,235 due to officers and shareholders for expense reimbursements. The Company settled on September 30, 2021, all amounts of $1,885,873 due to executive officers and consultants from employment and consulting contracts and other accounts payables in exchange for 2,514,497 common stock of the Company. Of these shares 1,257,251 were issued under the Companys S-8 Registration Statement and 1,257,246 were issued as restricted shares under Rule 144. The Company owed $23,100 to Officers as of April 30,2022. The Company does not current lease any space. The Company has agreed to reimburse certain officers for office and warehouse space leased by them to their party landlords to be used in the business. In the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company reimbursed certain officers a total of $56,100 for rent and related costs and reimbursed approximately $1,400 in other costs. | 29 | | **** **NOTE 5 CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE** The Company issued multiple convertible notes payable in January and February 2020 in the amount of $40,000 due in two years from date of issuance, with interest at 6% and convertible into common shares at $1.00 per share adjustable in certain circumstances, as defined in the debt agreements. These notes were in technical default as of April 30, 2022. On July 14,2022 the Company extended the due dates of these notes to September 30, 2022, in consideration for the issuance of 40,000 shares of unregistered shares of common stock. These notes contain contingent conversion features. The first feature triggers in the event that the Company has a qualified equity offering, as defined, in agreement. If triggered, this allows the holder to convert the principal and any unpaid and accrued interest at a price per share equal to the Discount Rate (as defined in the note agreement) multiplied by the price per share paid by the investors in the qualified financing. The second feature triggers in the event that the Company has an equity financing that does not qualify as a qualified financing. If triggered, this allows the holder to convert the principal and any unpaid and accrued interest into the equity financing security at a rate at the lower of the Discount Rate (as defined in the note agreement) multiplied by the price per share paid by the investors in the equity financing. The third feature triggers in the event that a Sale Event (as defined in the note agreements) occurs. If triggered, this allows the note holders to covert their outstanding principal and any unpaid and accrued interest into common stock of the Company at the Discount Rate (as defined in the note agreement) multiplied by proceeds per share payable in the Sales Event. Upon maturity, the holders of the notes may elect to convert their unpaid principal and accrued interest into that number of common shares determined by multiplying the Discount Rate (as defined in the note agreement) by the 5-trading day average closing price of the Companys common stock. The Company issued a convertible note payable in September 2020 due in one year in the amount of $27,500 including interest at 10% per annum. The note is convertible at a 40% discount to the 20-day volume weighted average trading price of the Companys common stock, after 90 days from issuance. In the event of default, the conversion discount increases to 50% of the 20-day volume weighted average trading price. In November 2020 the Company issued an additional note payable to the same investor due in one year in the amount of $30,800 with interest at 10% per annum. The note is convertible at a 60% discount to the 20-day volume weighted average trading price of the Companys common stock. The Company extended the due date to February 2, 2022, and issued 10,000 shares (postponement shares) for this extension in the year ended April 30, 2021. In the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company recorded a penalty payable at non-payment upon maturity for the two notes above $58,300 in the amount of $30,000 which is included in accounts payable and accrued expense as of April 30, 2022. As of April 30, 2022, these notes were in default. | 30 | | In the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company recorded a penalty payable at non-payment upon maturity for the two notes above totaling $58,300 in the amount of $30,000 which is included in accounts payable and accrued expense as of April 30, 2022. As of April 30, 2022, these notes were in default. In March 2022, the Company received gross proceeds of $85,000 and issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $85,000, which matures 12 months from issuance. The convertible note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum. The conversion rate of the note is $0.50 with standard antidilution provisions. The Company may prepay the convertible note at any time without penalty. At issuance, the Company determined that the beneficial conversion feature was immaterial In March 2022, the Company received gross proceeds of $85,000 and issued a convertible promissory note in the amount of $85,000, which matures 12 months from issuance. The convertible note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum. The conversion rate of the note is $0.50 with standard antidilution provisions. The Company may prepay the convertible note at any time without penalty. At issuance, the Company determined that the beneficial conversion feature was immaterial. For the April 30, 2021 convertible notes, the Company has determined that the conversion features require bifurcation as derivatives. The Company has calculated the value of the derivative, a level 3 liability as follows: the expected volatility rate was estimated based on comparison to the volatility of a peer group of companies in similar industries. The term for the conversion of the notes is based upon the remaining term of the notes. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life is based on the yield derived from auctions of comparable periods of constant maturity U.S. Treasury securities. Circumstances may change, and additional data may become available over time, which could result in changes to these assumptions and methodologies, and thereby materially impact our fair value determination. In the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company amortized the remaining debt discount from its 2 year maturity 2020 notes of $24,098. In the year ended April 30, 2022, the Company recorded a derivative liability of $63,039, a gain of derivative income of $75,516 from the liability recorded as of April 30, 2021, of $138,555. The following table for the derivative liability summarizes the inputs used for the Black-Scholes pricing model on the nine months ended April 30, 2022.

In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, loss carryback and tax-planning strategies. Generally, more weight is given to objectively verifiable evidence, such as the cumulative loss in recent years, as a significant piece of negative evidence to overcome. At April 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company continued to maintain that the realization of its deferred tax assets has not achieved a more likely than not threshold therefore, net deferred tax assets have been offset by a valuation allowance. As of April 30, 2022, the Company had NOL carryforwards for federal and state purposes of approximately $937,000. **NOTE 8 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS** The Company issued 135,000 common shares of S-8 Registered Stock on July 14, 2022, in satisfaction of part of the Stock Payable earned in the year ended April 30,2022. The Company also issued on July 14, 2022, 40,000 shares of its unregistered common shares to extend $40,000 of notes payable. On June 23, 2022, the Company executed a non-binding Letter of Intent with the shareholders of Progressus Clean Technologies, Inc. (Progressus), whereby the Company shall acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Progressus, a private company incorporated in Delaware in exchange for the Company issuing 90,000,000 shares of its common stock to the shareholders of Progressus. Should the acquisition become effective, the shareholders of Progressus will control the Company. Progressus is a venture stage green technology company focused on the development of novel hydrogen generation and separation technologies.

Controls and Procedures** Controls and Procedures. *Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures* In connection with the preparation of this annual report on Form 10-K, an evaluation was carried out by the Companys management, who also serves as the Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act)) as of April 30, 2021. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer/Chief Financial Officer concluded disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of April 30, 2021. *Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting* The Companys management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Companys principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the Companys Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: | | | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; | | | | | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and | | | | | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. | | The Companys management assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2021. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on its assessment, management concluded that, as of April 30, 2021, the Companys internal control over financial reporting is not effective based on those criteria due to the material weaknesses as described below. The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives, and lack of an audit committee and limited expertise with complex debt and equity transactions These material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Financial Officer in connection with the above annual evaluation. *Managements Remediation Initiatives* In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures: We will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to us. And we plan to appoint one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management when funds are available to us. Management believes that the appointment of more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board. We will work as quickly as possible to implement these initiatives; however, the lack of adequate working capital and positive cash flow from operations will likely slow this implementation. *Changes in Internal Control* As of the end of the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the year ended April 30, 2022, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Companys registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by the Companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only managements report in this annual report. **Item 9B.

The current member of the Board of Directors lacks sufficient financial expertise for overseeing financial reporting responsibilities. The Company has not yet employed an audit committee financial expert on its Board due to the inability to attract such a person. The Company intends to establish an audit committee of the Board of Directors, which will consist of independent directors. The audit committees duties will be to recommend to the Companys Board of Directors the engagement of an independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Companys financial statements and to review the Companys accounting and auditing principles. The audit committee will review the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and independent registered public accounting firm, including their recommendations to improve the system of accounting and internal controls. The audit committee will at all times be composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion of the Companys Board of Directors, free from any relationship which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a committee member and who possess an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles. **Code of Ethics** Our board of directors has not adopted a code of ethics due to the fact that we presently only have four directors, and we are in the development stage of our operations. We anticipate that we will adopt a code of ethics when we increase either the number of our directors and officers or the number of our employees. **Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act** Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership. These reporting persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all such reports they file. To our knowledge, based solely on our review of the copies of such reports furnished to us and written representations from certain insiders that no other reports were required, we believe there were no applicable reporting persons based on all applicable Section 16(a) filing requirements with respect to transactions during the fiscal years ended April 30, 2022 and 2021. **Item 11.

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management** The following table sets forth certain information concerning the number of shares of our common stock owned beneficially as of April 30, 2022, of: (i) each person (including any group) known to us to own more than five percent (5%) of any class of our voting securities, (ii) our director, and or (iii) our officer. Unless otherwise indicated, the stockholder listed possesses sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares shown. We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. Beneficial ownership generally means having sole or shared voting or investment power with respect to securities. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to the table, each shareholder named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares of common stock set forth opposite the shareholders name.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.** **Director Independence** The Board of Directors is currently composed of four members. Thomas Hemingway, and Michael Krall do not qualify as independent Directors in accordance with the published listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Market. Robert Orbach qualifies as Independent Director in accordance with the published listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Market. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the Director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of the Companys employees and that neither the Director, nor any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, the Board of Directors has not made a subjective determination as to each Director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a Director, though such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ rules. Had the Board of Directors made these determinations, the Board of Directors would have reviewed and discussed information provided by the Directors and the Company with regard to each Directors business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to the Company and its management. **Related Party Transactions** As of April 30, 2021, there were $1,258,250 in accrued compensations due to officers and shareholders and $21,235 due to officers and shareholders for expense reimbursements. The Company settled on September 30, 2021, all amounts of $1,885,873 due to executive officers and consultants from employment and consulting contracts and other accounts payables in exchange for 2,514,497 common stock of the Company. Of these shares 1,257,251 were issued under the Companys S-8 Registration Statement and 1,257,246 were issued as restricted shares under Rule 144. The Company owed $23,100 to Officers Shareholders as of April 30,2022, Other than the foregoing, neither the director nor executive officer of the Company, nor any person who owned of record or was known to own beneficially more than 5% of the Companys outstanding shares of its Common Stock, nor any associate or affiliate of such persons or companies, has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction that has occurred during the past fiscal year, or in any proposed transaction, which has materially affected or will affect the Company. With regard to any future related party transaction, we plan to fully disclose any and all related party transactions in the following manor: | | | Disclosing such transactions in reports where required; | | | | | Disclosing in any and all filings with the SEC, where required; | | | | | Obtaining disinterested directors consent; and | | | | | Obtaining shareholder consent where required. | | **Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons** We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item. | 41 | | **** **Item 14. Principal Accounting Fees and Services** On May 16, 2022, our Board of Directors voted to change our independent auditors, Haynie and Company, CPA. (HC), effective May 17, 2022. HC audited the financial statements of the Company for the two years ended April 30 ,2021and 2020 respectively, and reviewed the two subsequent quarters July 30, 2021, and October 31, 2021. The report of HC on such financial statements, dated August 13, 2021. did contain a modification raising substantial doubt about the Registrants ability to continue as a going concern. HCs reports did not contain any other adverse or disclaimer of opinion and were not otherwise qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. For the past two fiscal years and subsequent interim periods though the date of termination, there have been no disagreements with the former accountants on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Haynie and Company, CPA., would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements.
