Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

 

The Financial Statements and related disclosures have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) of the United States. The Company’s fiscal year is December 31.

 

Principles of Consolidation

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CitroTech Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

Reclassification

Reclassification

 

Certain amounts have been reclassified to improve the clarity and comparability of the financial statements. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported total assets, liabilities, equity, net income (loss), or cash flows for any periods presented.

 

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.

  

Segment Information

Segment Information

 

Our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) is the chief operating decision maker who reviews financial information on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. Accordingly, we determined we operate in a single reporting segment - environmentally sustainable specialty chemicals for fire prevention and protection in the lumber and wood products, wildland fire and residential home industry.

 

Our CEO assesses performance and decides how to allocate resources primarily based on consolidated net income, which is reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Total assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets represent our segment assets.

  

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of balance sheet presentation and reporting of cash flows, the Company considers all unrestricted demand deposits, money market funds and highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of less than 90 days to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents at December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company had cash of $6,268,591 and $775,133 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

Periodically, the Company may carry cash balances at financial institutions more than the federally insured limit of $250,000 per institution. The amount in excess of the FDIC insurance as of December 31, 2025, was approximately $5,343,000. The Company has not experienced losses on account balances and management believes, based upon the quality of the financial institutions, that the credit risk with regard to these deposits is not significant.

 

Inventory

Inventory

 

Inventories consist of finished goods and raw materials which are stated at lower cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined on the weighted average method.

 

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable

 

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. This value includes an appropriate allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts to reflect any expected loss on the trade accounts receivable balances and charged to the provision for credit loss. The Company maintains allowances for credit loss for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make the required payments for services. Accounts with known financial issues are first reviewed and specific estimates are recorded. The remaining accounts receivable balances are then grouped in categories by the number of days the balance is past due, and the estimated loss is calculated as a percentage of the total category based upon past history. Account balances are charged against the allowance when it is probable that the receivable will not be recovered.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded bad debt expense of $345,950 and $22,774, respectively, and recorded an allowance for credit losses of $345,534 and $0 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

 

Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets with finite lives are initially recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic useful lives of the respective assets. Acquired intangible assets from business combinations and asset acquisitions are recognized and measured at fair value at the time of acquisition. These assets are patents and represent assets with finite lives and are further amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic useful lives of 20 years for these acquired patents.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method. Currently our assets consist of computer and software, furniture and equipment, and vehicle which we amortize over a useful life of 3 to 7 years.

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Improvements of a major nature are capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses are reflected in the income. 

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets Other Than Goodwill

Impairment of Long-lived Assets Other Than Goodwill

 

Long-lived assets with finite lives, primarily property and equipment, intangible assets, and operating lease right-of-use assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the estimated cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are below the asset’s carrying value, then the asset is deemed to be impaired and written down to its fair value.

 

Leases

Leases

 

ASC 842 supersedes the lease requirements in ASC 840 “Leases”, and generally requires lessees to recognize operating and finance lease liabilities and corresponding right-of-use (“ROU”) assets on the balance sheet and to provide enhanced disclosures surrounding the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leasing arrangements.

 

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we generally use our incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.

 

Any lease with a term of 12 months or less is considered short-term. As permitted by ASC 842, short-term leases are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Consistent with all other operating leases, short-term lease expense is recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

The Company determines the present value of minimum future lease payments for operating leases by estimating a rate of interest that it would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments and a similar economic environment (the “incremental borrowing rate” or “IBR”).The Company determines the appropriate IBR by identifying a reference rate and making adjustments that take into consideration financing options and certain lease-specific circumstances.

 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company’s lease agreement is accounted for as an operating lease.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments 

 

The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. The hierarchy requires the Company to use observable inputs when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs, when determining fair value. The three tiers are defined as follows:

 

  · Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
     
  · Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly in the marketplace for identical or similar assets and liabilities; and
     
  · Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market data, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions.

 

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires the Company to make judgments and consider factors specific to the asset or liability. The use of different assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on estimated fair values. Accordingly, the fair value estimates disclosed, or initial amounts recorded, may not be indicative of the amount that the Company or holders of the instruments could realize in a current market exchange.

  

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

 

The following table summarizes the liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

 

There were no liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025. 

    
December 31, 2024  Level 3 
Derivative Liability – conversion feature  $1,055,233 

 

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

 

The valuation of warrants and market based compensation awards, were derived using Level 2 inputs.

 

Other Fair Value Disclosures

 

The Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, deferred revenue and loans payable, are carried at historical cost. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the carrying amounts of these instruments approximated their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

Convertible Notes

Convertible Notes

 

The Company bifurcates conversion options from their host instruments and accounts for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments if certain criteria are met. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. We evaluate all of our financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For our derivative financial instruments, the Company used a Binomial Lattice model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within twelve (12) months of the balance sheet date.

 

Warrants

Warrants

 

For warrants that are determined to be equity-classified, we estimate the fair value at issuance and record the amounts to additional paid in capital (potentially on a relative fair value basis if issued in a basket transaction with other financial instruments). Warrants that are equity-classified are not subsequently remeasured unless modified or required to be reclassified as liabilities.

 

Related Parties

Related Parties

 

The Company follows ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures,” for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.

 

Revenue

Revenue

 

The Company recognizes revenue from its contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company recognizes revenues when satisfying the performance obligation of the associated contract that reflects the consideration expected to be received based on the terms of the contract.

 

Revenue related to contracts with customers is evaluated utilizing the following steps:

 

i.Identify the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
ii.Identify the performance obligations in the contract;
iii.Determine the transaction price;
iv.Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract;
v.Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2025, our revenues currently consist of a sale of product used for lumber products for fire prevention and on installation of self-contained sprinkler systems. Revenue is recognized at a point in time, that is which the risks and rewards of ownership of the product transfer from the Company to the customer.

  

Deferred revenue

Deferred revenue

 

Deferred revenue consists of advanced payments for our service that have not been rendered. Revenue is recognized when service is rendered. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, total deferred revenue was $3,000 and $0, respectively. Deferred revenue is expected to be recognized as revenue within the first and second quarter of 2026.

 

Cost of Revenue

Cost of Revenue

 

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, cost of revenue consisted of:  

          
   Years ended 
   December 31, 
   2025   2024 
Cost of inventory  $1,545,072   $407,334

Total cost of revenue  $1,850,682   $655,499 

 

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Net loss per share of common stock requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per common share on the face of the Statements of Operations for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic earnings per share computation to diluted earnings per share. In the accompanying financial statements, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive outstanding shares of common stock during the period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through contingent share arrangements and warrants unless the result would be antidilutive.

 

The dilutive effect of share-based payment awards is calculated using the “treasury stock method,” which assumes that the “proceeds” from the exercise of these instruments are used to purchase common shares at the average market price for the period. The dilutive effect of convertible securities is calculated using the “if-converted method.” Under the if-converted method, securities are assumed to be converted at the beginning of the period, and the resulting shares of common stock are included in the denominator of the diluted calculation for the entire period being presented.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the following common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the result of the computation was anti-dilutive. 

        
   December 31,   December 31, 
   2025   2024 
   Shares   Shares 
Convertible notes   989,583    540,000 
Common Stock warrants   2,909,434    270,010 
Series C Convertible Preferred Stock   2,692,227    8,653,907 
    6,591,244    9,463,917 

 

Deferred Offering Costs

Deferred Offering Costs

 

Pursuant to ASC 340-10-S99-1, costs directly attributable to an offering of equity securities are deferred and would be charged against the gross proceeds of the offering as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. Deferred offering costs consist of underwriting, legal, accounting, and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the proposed public offering. Should the proposed public offering prove to be unsuccessful, these deferred costs, as well as additional expenses to be incurred, will be expensed. On August 19, 2025, the Company withdrew the registration statement, and as a result, the Company wrote off total deferred offering costs of $197,415 within professional and general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, deferred offering costs consisted of the following: 

        
   December 31,   December 31 
   2025   2024 
Legal fees  $–   $52,131 
General and administrative expenses   –    73,973 
Total  $–   $126,104 

 

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for employee and non-employee stock awards under ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, whereby equity instruments issued to employees for services are recorded based on the fair value of the instrument issued and those issued to nonemployees are recorded based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity grants are amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods, which is generally the vesting period. If an award is granted, but vesting does not occur, any previously recognized compensation cost is reversed in the period related to the termination of service.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, stock-based compensation was recognized as follows: 

          
   Years ended 
   December 31, 
   2025   2024 
Management compensation  $7,779,159   $– 
Professional fees   578,227    2,049,999 
Professional fees - related party   2,103,600    348,000 
Advertising and marketing   –    660,000 
Financing expense   6,167,334    – 
Financing expense - related party   2,511,855    – 
Stock-based compensation  $19,140,175   $3,057,999 

 

Compensation cost for stock awards, which include common shares, Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, warrants and performance stock units (“PSUs”), is measured at the fair value on the grant date and recognized as expense, net of estimated forfeitures, over the related service or performance period. The fair value of stock awards is based on the quoted price of our common stock on the grant date and Series C Convertible Preferred stock as if converted to common stock. We measure the fair value of PSUs using a Monte Carlo valuation model and warrants using a Black Scholes valuation model. Compensation cost for PSUs are recognized using the derived service period and accelerated if the condition is satisfied at an earlier date.

 

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the Company’s deferred tax assets to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
