Filing Type: Form 10-Q (Quarterly Report)
Period Ended: March 31, 2016
Status: The Company was dormant from February 2010 through January 2021. During this period, operations were discontinued, and assets were deemed disposed of for no value. The financial statements reflect the accrual of interest on outstanding debt without active business operations.

Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

There were no material changes in operating results between the three months ended March 31, 2016, and March 31, 2015, as the Company remained dormant in both periods. The net loss of $(868,880) in both quarters was driven entirely by interest and financing costs. Total liabilities increased by approximately $868,880 due to the accrual of interest on outstanding debt.

Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary

Going Concern: The filing explicitly states that the Company's ability to continue as a going concern is in substantial doubt. The Company has a working capital deficiency of $36,791,528 and a stockholders' deficit of $105,196,910. Cash utilized in operations was $0.

Management Commentary:

• Dormancy Methodology: Because the Company was dormant from 2010 to 2021, all assets were impaired in 2010. Liabilities remained on the balance sheet accruing interest until written off in 2017 due to the expiration of the Statute of Limitations.
• Future Strategy: Management intends to research waste-to-energy (W-T-E) opportunities and develop Santa Clara WasteWater Company (SCWW) as the core business through internal growth and strategic acquisitions.

Risks and Contingencies:

• Legal Proceedings: A lawsuit filed in 2007 by Romic Environmental Technologies Corp. was settled in February 2010, with the majority funded by insurance. The Company believes other ordinary course claims will not have a material adverse effect.
• Debt Covenants: As of December 31, 2009, the subsidiary SCWW was not in compliance with certain covenants (current ratio, debt/worth ratio) with the National Bank of California, resulting in a default status. The notes were classified as current.
• Internal Controls: Due to the dormant status, disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2016, were deemed ineffective.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Entity Name Discrepancy: Verify if "Citrotech Inc." is a successor or if the metadata provided was incorrect, as the filing is for "General Enterprise Ventures, Inc."
• Debt Validity: Confirm the status of the $48.7M in liabilities. The filing notes that liabilities were to be written off in 2017 due to the Statute of Limitations; verify if this write-off occurred or if the debt remains enforceable.
• Going Concern Status: Assess the likelihood of the Company raising capital to address the $36.8M working capital deficiency and $105M accumulated deficit.
• Asset Recovery: Verify if any assets were recovered or if the "dormant" status continues, as Total Assets are reported as $0.
• Share Count: Note the discrepancy in share counts: The balance sheet lists 22,945,388 shares outstanding (2016), while the cover page lists 93,945,388 shares as of March 22, 2023. Verify the current capital structure.
