Risks

• Substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern due to liquidity conditions.
• Inability to raise additional financing on acceptable terms or at all, which would materially and adversely affect business, results of operations, and financial condition.
• Future operating results and financial condition are uncertain and depend on signing contracts with customers and suppliers.
• Business plan is complex and subject to factors like project delays, volatility in raw material/product prices, and demand volatility.
• Involvement of management members in litigation unrelated to the company's business affairs could negatively affect reputation and indirectly impact the business.
• Potential for significant payments, accruals, or material deviation from tax positions if current tax issues under review result in adverse findings.
• Reliance on estimates and assumptions in financial statements, which may differ significantly from actual results.
• Concentration of credit risk in cash accounts exceeding FDIC limits.
• Need to obtain relevant licensing for producing, storing, and selling hydrogen, oxygen, and other gases on a project-by-project and jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis.
• Compliance with government regulations, including local zoning and permitting, for facility construction and gas distribution.

Future Outlook

The company intends to offer customers reliable, low-carbon and clean hydrogen, pure carbon dioxide, and other gases, focusing on modular generation and multiple outputs from single feedstocks. It aims to benefit from government incentives like the hydrogen tax production and investment tax credits from the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. Future capital requirements will depend on revenue growth and spending on sales, marketing, and R&D, with plans to raise additional financing through equity issuances.

Management Comments

• 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.
• While there can be no assurances, the Company intends to raise such capital through issuances of additional equity.
• 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 projects feasibility, preliminary sizing and design.
• Global Hydrogen has not yet successfully closed on any project.

Industry Context

Global Gas Corporation operates in the nascent but rapidly growing hydrogen and carbon recovery market, driven by global decarbonization efforts and substantial government incentives, particularly in North America and Western Europe. The company aims to differentiate itself by deploying modular generation and multi-output solutions closer to end-customers, targeting both traditional industrial gas users and the emerging hydrogen-as-energy-carrier market for fuel-cell vehicles. Its strategy aligns with the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, which provides significant tax credits for hydrogen production and investment.

Comparison to Industry Standards

• The company is a nascent pure-play developer with limited operating history and has not yet successfully closed on any projects. Therefore, specific comparisons to established industry benchmarks, comparable companies, or project results are not available within the filing.

Legal Proceedings

• Ongoing litigation involving CEO Carter Glatt and his affiliated company, Captains Neck Holdings, LLC, unrelated to Global Gas Corporation's business affairs.
• A case originally filed in August 2020 by dMY Technology Group, Inc. and dMY Sponsor, LLC against Carter Glatt and Captains Neck Holdings, LLC, with counterclaims by Mr. Glatt and Captain's Neck.
• A separate lawsuit filed on July 25, 2025, by Captains Neck Holdings LLC alleging improper fraudulent conveyance of Captains Neck's shares to 52 named defendants, including Harry L. You and Niccolo de Masi.
• Motions to stay and dismiss have been filed in the fraudulent conveyance lawsuit.
• The company does not consider any claims, lawsuits, or proceedings currently pending against Global Gas itself to be material to its business or likely to result in a material adverse effect.

Related Party Transactions

• Repayment of $707 in advances from an affiliate during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
• Outstanding convertible promissory notes totaling $273,950 ($103,950 from an affiliate and $170,000 from the Sponsor) as of September 30, 2025. These notes bear 5% annual interest (payable in kind and non-cash) and are convertible into Class A common stock at $0.15 per share, due on demand.
• Previously, Dune was obligated to pay the Sponsor $10,000 per month for office space, secretarial, and administrative services, with $110,000 outstanding as of December 31, 2024, now $0.
• Reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses to Sponsor, officers, and directors, with $14,867 outstanding as of December 31, 2024, now $0.

Stakeholder Impact

• Shareholders: Potential for significant dilution from future equity raises and conversion of related-party promissory notes at a low price ($0.15/share). Delisting from Nasdaq to OTCQB reduces liquidity and visibility. The going concern warning poses a significant risk to investment value.
• Creditors: Convertible promissory notes from related parties are due on demand, posing a potential liquidity risk if called.
• Employees/Management: Issuance of Class A common stock under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan aims to align interests and incentivize performance.
• Customers: The company has not yet successfully closed on any projects, indicating a lack of current customer base for its core business.

Next Steps

• Source, identify, evaluate, and vet offtake customers for industrial gases.
• Secure local feedstocks, equipment, and utilities.
• Plan and manage projects.
• Structure and finance projects.
• Raise additional financing, likely through equity issuances.
• Acquire relevant licensing for producing, storing, and selling gases on a project-by-project and jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction basis.
• Comply with government regulations for facility construction and gas distribution.

Key Dates

Recommendation

The company faces severe financial distress, explicitly stating 'substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.' It has minimal cash ($48,307), a significant working capital deficit ($307,470), and an accumulated deficit ($468,652). Despite a slight improvement in operating loss and initial revenue, the net loss increased year-over-year. The delisting from Nasdaq to OTCQB significantly reduces market liquidity and investor confidence. Crucially, the company, a 'project developer,' has not yet successfully closed on any projects, indicating a fundamental failure in its core business execution. The stated need for future equity raises, with no assurance of favorable terms, suggests further dilution for existing shareholders. The ongoing litigation involving the CEO, though unrelated to the company's direct business, adds reputational risk. Given these profound challenges and lack of tangible progress, the stock represents a high-risk, low-reward investment.
