Current report
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $16,507,558 compared to $14,604,618 for the same period in 2024, representing an increase of $1,902,940, or 13.0%. The increase was mainly due to increased deliveries of systems (Pool, Energy & Industry), and components (plastics), partly offset by decreased sales of filters.
Current report
The increase in deliveries of systems was mainly driven by increased deliveries of pool filtration systems and water treatment systems for industrial applications. The increase in components was mainly related to machine building for the food & beverage industry. The decrease in sales of filters was primarily driven by a refocusing of our strategy to capitalize on sub segments where we see increased future demand for DPFs outside of the automotives sector.
Current report
Selling expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $2,718,047, compared to $2,725,239 for the same period in 2024, representing a decrease of $7,192, or 0.3%. This decrease was partly driven by full year effect of savings made in 2024 and lower account receivable write-offs and provision needs. This were partly offset by costs associated with the newly formed joint venture in China, Nantong JiTRI LiqTech Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd.(the "JV"). The primary focus of the JV is to develop and commercialize systems for the marine water treatment market in China. Costs for outbound distribution, including tariffs, and expenditures related to external sales consultancy services also increased in 2025.
Current report
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $5,677,525 compared to $5,661,455 for the same period in 2024, representing an increase of $16,070, or 0.3%. The increase was primarily due to higher legal expenses, the filling of open positions, including the CFO, as well as higher recruitment costs. Included in general and administrative expenses was non-cash compensation of $987,072 and $664,434 for the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Non-cash compensation increased due to a 2025 conversion of 50% of the Board fee and 10% of Senior Leadership Team salary to stock awards and due to this being the second year of a new three-year, long-term incentive plan program for the Senior Leadership Team.

Going Concern and Management’s Plans
Current report
The financial statements included herein for the period ended December 31, 2025, have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern and contemplate the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $5,070,385, net working capital of $11,237,788, an accumulated deficit of 94,795,121, and total assets and liabilities of $27,278,097 and $16,905,861, respectively. The Company has experienced operating losses and cash outflows from continuing operations and may require additional funding to support operations for the twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Current report
Management has implemented cost optimization and operational initiatives designed to improve liquidity and support a sustainable path toward profitability, supported by an updated strategic focus and strengthened leadership. The Company continues to evaluate financing alternatives and strategic opportunities to enhance its capital position. While there can be no assurance that additional funding will be obtained on favorable terms, management believes its ongoing initiatives position the Company to support operations and advance its strategic objectives.

Previous report
Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $14,604,618 compared to $18,001,652 for the same period in 2023, representing a decrease of $3,397,034, or 18.9%. The decline was mainly due to reduced deliveries of liquid filtration systems, plastics products, ceramic membranes, and aftermarket sales, partly offset by increased sales of DPFs.
Previous report
The decrease in deliveries of liquid filtration systems was mainly driven by reduced deliveries of pool filtration systems and marine scrubber systems. The decline in aftermarket sales was primarily due to remediation work carried out in the same period of 2023, which did not recur in 2024. The reduction in sales of plastic products was largely due to a significant one-time sale recorded in 2023 that did not recur in the current period. The increase in sales of DPFs was primarily driven by the effective execution of strategies designed to capitalize on the increased demand for DPFs.
Previous report
Selling expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024, were $2,725,239, compared to $4,298,905 for the same period in 2023, representing a decrease of $1,573,666, or 36.6%. This decline was primarily driven by a reduction in executive officers, along with reductions in bonus payouts, travel costs, marketing expenses, and expenditures related to external sales consultancy services. The decrease was partially offset by increased bad debt expenses.
Previous report
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024, were $5,661,455 compared to $4,856,779 for the same period in 2023, representing an increase of $804,676, or 16.6%. The increase was primarily due to newly created positions in supply chain and project management, as well as higher legal expenses, insurance costs, and recruitment costs associated with the resignations of our CFO and VP of Sales. Additionally, one-time expenses were incurred for the relocation of our plastics production facility. The increase was also partially attributable to the release of bonus provisions in the comparable period of 2023. Included in general and administrative expenses was non-cash compensation of $664,434 and $627,904 for the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Goodwill and Intangible assets
Previous report
The purchase price of an acquired company is allocated between intangible assets and the net tangible assets of the acquired business, with the residual purchase price recorded as goodwill. The determination of the value of the intangible assets acquired involves certain judgments and estimates. These judgments can include, but are not limited to, the cash flows that an asset is expected to generate in the future and the appropriate weighted average cost of capital.
Previous report
Acquired intangible assets with determinable useful lives are amortized on a straight-line or accelerated basis over the estimated periods benefited, ranging from one to ten years. Customer relationships and other non-contractual intangible assets with determinable lives are amortized over periods of five years.
Previous report
The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to estimated future net undiscounted cash flows generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured as the amount by which the carrying value of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. The evaluation of recoverability involves estimates of future operating cash flows based upon certain forecasted assumptions, including, but not limited to, revenue growth rates, gross profit margins, and operating expenses over the expected remaining useful life of the related asset. A shortfall in these estimated operating cash flows could result in an impairment charge in the future.
Previous report
Goodwill is not amortized but is evaluated annually for impairment at the reporting unit level or when indicators of a potential impairment are present. The Company estimates the fair value of the reporting unit using the discounted cash flow and market approaches. Forecasts of future cash flows are based on the Company’s best estimate of future net sales and operating expenses, using primarily expected category expansion, pricing, market segment fundamentals, and general economic conditions. During the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, no impairment charge for goodwill was recorded.

Previous report
Income Taxes
Previous report
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” 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. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the year 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 the period that includes the enactment date. The Company assesses the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income and establishes a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it believes it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Previous report
The Company recognizes the tax benefit of an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not the position will be sustainable upon examination by the taxing authority, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. This evaluation is based on all available evidence and assumes that the tax authorities have full knowledge of all relevant information concerning the tax position. The tax benefit recognized is measured as the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest accrued and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.
Previous report
Warrant Liabilities
Previous report
The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the specific terms of the warrants in accordance with ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” and ASC 815-40, “Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity.” This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815-40, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own shares and whether the events where holders of the warrants could potentially require net cash settlement are within the Company’s control, among other conditions for equity classification. Warrant liabilities are recognized at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statement of operations each period.

Previous wording
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $250,905 (or a gross profit margin of 1.7%), compared to $2,775,476 (or a gross profit margin of 15.4%) for the same period in 2023, representing a decrease of $2,524,571, or approximately 91.0%. This decline in gross profit can be attributed to the decrease in revenue, resulting in lower overall activity levels and underutilization of our manufacturing capacity, as well as an unfavorable sales mix, which resulted in a lower proportion of high-margin products such as liquid filtration systems and ceramic membranes. Specifically, the deliveries of containerized oil and gas pilot systems to the Middle East and the U.S. contributed to lower-than-usual margins, reflecting a strategic decision aimed at demonstrating and validating the value proposition associated with our technology and seeding the market for future growth. This approach has proven successful, securing an order for a full-scale system scheduled for delivery in 2025. Additionally, a thorough inventory review led to necessary adjustments for obsolescence and slow-moving items. The decline in gross profit was partly offset by decreased depreciation as well as continued initiatives aimed at optimizing manufacturing processes, which have improved profitability within DPF and ceramic membrane production. Included in the gross profit was depreciation of $1,830,553 and $2,598,095 for the years ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively.
Current wording
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $1,250,523 (or a gross profit margin of 7.6%), compared to $250,905 (or a gross profit margin of 1.7%) for the same period in 2024, representing an increase of $999,618, or 398.4%. This increase in gross profit can be attributed to both an increase in revenue as well as a more favorable sales mix, which resulted in a higher proportion of high-margin products within our Systems segment. We did, however, continue to invest in deliveries of containerized oil and gas systems to the U.S., which contributed to lower-than-usual margins, reflecting a strategic decision aimed at demonstrating and validating the value proposition associated with our technology and seeding the market for future growth. Despite the significant improvement in both gross profit and gross profit margin, we continue to see an underutilization of our manufacturing capacity that has a material, adverse effect on profitability. The continued refocusing of the company led to an inventory review and related adjustments for obsolescence and slow-moving inventory items, which also had an unfavorable impact on gross profit margin. The increase in gross profit was partly supported by decreased depreciation as well as continued initiatives aimed at optimizing manufacturing processes. Included in the gross profit was depreciation of $1,519,439 and $1,830,553 for the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.
Previous wording
Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2024, were $9,738,754, representing a decrease of $835,772, or 7.9%, compared to $10,574,526 for the same period in 2023.
Current wording
Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $9,559,223, representing a decrease of $179,531, or 1.8%, compared to $9,738,754 for the same period in 2024. In local currency, the cost decrease was higher driven by a DKK/USD appreciation of 3.9% for the full year.
Previous wording
Research and development expense for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $1,352,060 compared to $1,418,842 for the same period in 2023, representing a decrease of $66,782, or 4.7%. The decrease was primarily due to a more focused R&D strategy with fewer ongoing projects and a reduced average number of employees engaged in external research and development activities, as the Company streamlined and centralized its R&D function. This was partially offset by one-time exit costs associated with a loss-making external development project.
Current wording
Research and development expense for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $1,163,651 compared to $1,352,060 for the same period in 2024, representing a decrease of $188,409, or 13.9%. The decrease was primarily due to a more focused R&D strategy with fewer ongoing projects and a reduced average number of employees engaged in external research and development activities.
Previous wording
Total Other expense for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $896,246 compared to $978,302 for the comparable period in 2023, representing decreased expense of $82,056, or 8.4%. The decrease was primarily attributable to a gain on currency transactions resulting from the EUR/DKK decline against the USD during the period and a loss on assets held for sale in the comparable period in 2023. This decrease in other expenses was partially offset by a non-cash loss related to the disposal of property and equipment, decreased interest income, and higher debt discount amortization costs due to the extension of the maturity date for the senior promissory notes, with additional warrants issued as consideration for the extension.
Current wording
Total Other expense for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $294,694 compared to $896,246 for the comparable period in 2024, representing a decrease of $601,552, or 67.1%. The decrease was primarily attributable to reduced losses on the disposal of property and equipment, increased interest income, and lower debt discount amortization costs due to the extension of the maturity date for the senior promissory notes.
Previous wording
The income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $38,837 compared to a benefit of $206,207 for the comparable period in 2023, representing a decrease of $167,370, or 81.2%, mainly driven by a decrease in tax credits associated with research and development activities in Denmark.
Current wording
The income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2025, was$1,454 compared to a benefit of$38,837 for the comparable period in 2024, representing a decrease of$37,383, or 96.3%, mainly driven by a decrease in tax credits associated with research and development activities in Denmark.
Previous wording
As a result of the cumulative effect of the factors described above, we had a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2024, of $10,345,258 compared to $8,571,145 for the comparable period in 2023, representing an increase in net loss of $1,774,113, or 20.7%.
Current wording
As a result of the cumulative effect of the factors described above, we reported a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2025, of $8,601,940 compared to $10,345,258 for the comparable period in 2024, representing an improvement in net loss of $1,743,318, or 16.9%.
Previous wording
Cash used by operating activities is net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in assets and liabilities. Cash used by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2024, was $7,534,072 compared to cash used by operating activities of $4,183,918 for the year ended December 31, 2023, representing an increase of $3,350,154. The cash used by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2024, consists mainly of the net loss for the year of $(10,345,258) adjusted by depreciation and other non-cash items of $4,432,671. Further, changes in assets and liabilities included a decrease in accounts payable of $1,050,406, a decrease in accrued expenses of $908,607, and an increase in inventories of $587,806, partly offset by a decrease in contract assets of $1,102,791 and a decrease in accounts receivable of $620,116.
Current wording
Cash used by operating activities is net loss adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in assets and liabilities. Cash used by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $6,108,176 compared to cash used by operating activities of $7,534,072 for the year ended December 31, 2024, representing an improvement of $1,425,896. The cash used by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2025, consists mainly of the net loss for the year which improved by $1,743,318, adjusted by depreciation and other non-cash items of which decreased $657,120. Further, changes in assets and liabilities decrease $339,698 primarily due to an increase in the development in account payables from 2024 to 2025 of $1,150,188 related to inventory build up of Pool systems and a decrease in contract assets relating to fewer ongoing research and development projects.
Previous wording
Net cash used in investing activities was $424,036 for the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to $2,886,036 for the year ended December 31, 2023, representing a decrease of $2,462,000. The investing activities include general purchases of production equipment to continue optimizing production throughput and the internal production of rental assets, partly offset by proceeds from the disposition of production equipment in our Ballerup facility.
Current wording
Net cash used in investing activities was $217,930 for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $424,036 for the year ended December 31, 2024, representing a decrease of $206,106. The investing activities include general purchases of production equipment to continue optimizing production throughput and the internal production of rental assets, partly offset by proceeds from the disposition of production equipment in our Ballerup facility. With our current strategic focus and the excess capacity already in place, we expect capital expenditures to be significantly lower than historical levels, allowing us to leverage our existing infrastructure.
Previous wording
Cash provided by financing activities was $8,493,300 for the year ended December 31, 2024, as compared to $580,645 for the year ended December 31, 2023, representing an increase of $7,912,655. The increase was mainly driven by the equity raise, generating net proceeds of $9,922,063 from the issuance of common stock and prefunded warrants, partly offset by the repayment of lease agreements in connection with the sales of production equipment in Ballerup as mentioned above.
Current wording
Cash provided by financing activities was $719,287 for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $8,493,300 for the year ended December 31, 2024, representing a decrease of $7,774,013 or 92%.

Previous wording
The Company records revenue in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” Revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, the Company applies the following five-step approach: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.

Previous wording
For Water (systems and aftermarket), Ceramics (diesel particulate filters and membranes), and Plastics (components), revenue is recognized when performance obligations specified within the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied, which occurs when control of the product transfers to the customer or when services are rendered by the Company. The majority of the Company's sales contracts contain performance obligations satisfied at a point in time when title along with risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. This generally occurs when the product is shipped or accepted by the customer. Revenue for service contracts is recognized as the services are provided. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring the goods or providing services. The satisfaction of performance obligations under the terms of a revenue contract generally gives rise to the right to receive payment from the customer. The Company's standard payment terms vary by the type and location of the customer and the products or services offered. Generally, the time between when revenue is recognized and when payment is due is not significant. Pre-payments received prior to satisfaction of performance obligations are recorded as a contract liability. Considering the relatively short time between revenue recognition and receipt of payment, financing components do not exist between the Company and its customers.

System sales are recognized when the Company transfers control to the customer based upon sales and delivery conditions specified in the sales contract. This typically occurs upon shipment of the system from the production facility but can also occur upon other agreed delivery terms. In connection with the completion of the system, it is normal procedure to issue a FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) asserting that the customer has accepted the performance of the system as it is being shipped from our production facility in Hobro. As part of the performance obligation, the customer is normally offered commissioning services (final assembly and configuration at a place designated by the customer), and this commissioning is therefore considered a second performance obligation and is valued at cost, with the addition of a standard gross profit. This second performance obligation is recognized as revenue at the time of the commissioning services being rendered together with the cost incurred. Part of the invoicing to the customer is also attributed to the commissioning, and at transfer of the control of the system (i.e., the first performance obligation), this portion is recognized as contract liabilities.

Aftermarket sales represent parts, extended warranties, and maintenance services. For the sale of aftermarket parts, the Company transfers control and recognizes revenue when parts are shipped to the customer. When customers are given the right to return eligible parts and accessories, the Company estimates the expected returns based on an analysis of historical experience. The Company adjusts estimated revenues at the earlier of when the most likely amount of consideration expected to be received changes or when the consideration becomes fixed. The Company recognizes revenue for extended warranty and maintenance agreements based on the standalone selling price over the life of the contract.
