NANO MAGIC INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2024
(unaudited)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization
Nano Magic Inc. ("we", "us", "our", "Nano Magic" or the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, develops and sells a portfolio of nano-layer coatings, nano-based cleaners, and nano-composite products based on its proprietary technology
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures required by US GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited condensed financial statements of the Company as of September 30, 2024 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2024 or any other period. The balance sheet at December 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited financial statement at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited condensed financial statements and related disclosures of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and for the year then ended, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K on April 3, 2024.
Going Concern
These unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the unaudited condensed financial statements, the Company had losses from operations and net cash used by operations of $2,974,546and $1,634,053for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and a loss from operations of $2,009,247and cash used by operations of $1,057,794for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Moreover, at September 30, 2024, the Company had a working capital deficit of $(889,966)as compared to positive working capital of $454,969at December 31, 2023. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that these unaudited condensed financial statements are issued. Management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations, become cash flow positive or raise additional capital. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. They do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and/or classification of the recorded asset amounts and/or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Reclassifications
Certain accounts and financial statement captions in the prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period. These reclassifications had no effect on the previously reported net loss.

Bad debt expense was $80,865and $84,132in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, and included in general and administrative expenses in the statements of operations.
NOTE 4 - INVESTMENT IN SUBSIDIARY
For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024, we sold portions of the note receivable from ANI to various parties for total cash proceeds of $0and $300,000, respectively, incurring a loss on the sale of the note of $41,782. The losses were recorded in other expense in the statement of operations. As a result, at September 30, 2024, the note receivable had a balance of $0as compared to $341,782at December 31, 2023; $0was included in current assets at September 30, 2024 with $50,000included in current assets at December 31, 2023.
The Company is accounting for its ownership interest in ANI by the equity method of accounting under which the Company's share of the net income (loss) of ANI is recognized as income (loss) in the Company's statement of operations.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 there was a loss of $21,267, and income of $19,671, respectively.
Gain from sale of investment in subsidiary
During the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, we sold a portion of our investment in ANI, reducing our interest from 30% to 25%. The gain on that sale is reflected in other income for the quarter, totaling $56,067.
Loss from sale of note receivable
In the first two quarters of 2024, the company sold its note receivable with ANI to various parties for a cash discount, resulting in a loss of $41,782.
Interest expense
For the three months ended September 30, 2024 interest expense was $12,211 as compared to $12,068 in the prior year, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 interest expense was $37,676 up from $34,011 in the prior year. The increases for the three- and nine-month comparative periods was due to accrued interest on convertible notes outstanding.
Interest and other income
For the three months ended September 30, 2024, interest and other income was $845 as compared to other expense of $3,192 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, interest and other income was $8,385 as compared to $20,010 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decreases are due to less interest income from ANI resulting from the sales of the notes receivable with ANI.
Net loss
For the three months ended September 30, 2024, net loss was $1,409,093 as compared to a loss of $699,675 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net loss amounted to $2,979,965 as compared to a loss of $2,003,577 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity is the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash requirements. We had a working capital deficit of $889,966 and $38,688 of unrestricted cash as of September 30, 2024 and working capital of $454,969 and $527,462 of unrestricted cash as of December 31, 2023.

The decrease in current assets was primarily due to a reduction in cash; a reduction in inventory and in prepaid expenses also contributed. The increase in current liabilities was primarily due to an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses.
Net cash used by operating activities was $(1,634,053) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to net cash used by operating activities of $(1,057,794) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a net change of $576,259 or an increase of 54%. Net cash used by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily resulted from net loss from operations of $2,979,965 adjusted for add-backs of $995,702 and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $350,208.
Net cash provided by investing activities was $383,036 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $10,648 for the same period in 2023. The change was due in substantial part to gain on the sale of the note receivable from ANI and the sale of a portion of our stock in that subsidiary.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $762,243 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 reflecting $787,500 in proceeds from sales of common stock, warrants and convertible notes, as compared to net cash provided by continuing financing activities of $911,096 for the same period in 2023.
Future Liquidity and Capital Needs.
Our principal future uses of cash are for working capital requirements, including working capital to support increased product sales, sales and marketing expenses and reduction of accrued liabilities. Application of funds among these uses will depend on numerous factors including our sales and other revenues and our ability to control costs.
Equipment Financing and Loans
See note 5 to our unaudited condensed financial statements regarding our equipment loan and financing leases.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder's equity or that are not reflected in our condensed unaudited financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative disclosures about market risk
Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.
ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report (the "Evaluation Date"). This evaluation included consideration of past practices and new resources, the scope of which is for disclosure controls only and not the Company's internal controls over financial reporting. Based upon this evaluation, our disclosure controls were determined not to be effective.
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control
There were no changes identified in connection with our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
