Overview
Adamant DRI Processing and Minerals Group (the "Company," "we" or "us" or words of similar meaning), is aNevada corporation incorporated inJuly 2014 and successor by merger toUHF Incorporated , aDelaware corporation ("UHF"), which in turn was the successor toUHF Incorporated , aMichigan corporation ("UHFMichigan "), as a result of a domicile merger effected onDecember 29, 2011 . We discontinued all of our remaining business operations effectiveMarch 31, 2019 , at which time we became a non-operating shell company with nominal assets. InAugust 2021 we filed a Registration Statement on Form 10 and became subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act. We also are considered a "blank check company" subject to Rule 419. We intend to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, engage in a business combination which may take the form of a "reverse merger" with a private entity whose business presents an opportunity for our stockholders. During the next 12 months, we anticipate incurring costs to file Exchange Act reports, and, if a suitable target company is found, costs to consummate acquisition. We believe we will be able to meet these costs through amounts, as necessary, to be loaned by or invested in us by our stockholders, management or other investors. We have no specific plans, understandings or agreements with respect to the raising of such funds, and we may seek to raise the required capital by the issuance of equity or debt securities or by other means. Since we have no such arrangements or plans currently in effect, our inability to raise funds for the consummation of an acquisition may have a severe negative impact on our ability to become a viable company.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As ofDecember 31, 2022 , andDecember 31, 2021 , cash and equivalents and restricted cash were$0 . AtDecember 31, 2022 and 2021, we had a working capital deficit of$37,175 and$66,099 , respectively. The decrease in our working capital deficit during the year endedDecember 31, 2022 , reflects the fact that during such period our former officer and director contributed outstanding loans and newly incurred expenses up to the time of a change of control to paid in capital. 13
We have had to rely on loans from our director and third party to maintain our operations since we disposed of our interest inShenzhen Technology Company and became a shell company inMarch 2019 . We anticipate incurring a minimum of$50,000 in expenses over the next twelve months and could incur more significant expenses in connection with any proposed acquisition. In all likelihood we will remain dependent upon the efforts of our sole director and officer, and his willingness and that of our principal stockholders to provide the capital necessary to continue our business and fund our cash needs until we generate meaningful revenues. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the funds necessary to fund our operations until such time as we complete a business combination and we cannot assure you that we can identify a suitable business to acquire or combine with. If we were to fail to raise the capital necessary to maintain our operations our common stock would likely become worthless.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the 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 consolidated 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.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our management's discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which were prepared in accordance with US GAAP. While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements, we believe the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis.
14 Going Concern
Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. We incurred losses of$71,843 and$60,890 for the years endedDecember 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As ofDecember 31, 2022 , we had a working capital deficit of$37,174 , and an accumulated deficit of$9,551,043 . These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our capital requirements will depend on many factors including whether we can identify a target for acquisition. In all likelihood we will remain dependent upon the efforts of our sole director and officer, and his willingness and that of our principal stockholders to provide the capital necessary to continue our business and fund our cash needs until we generate meaningful revenues. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the funds necessary to fund our operations until such time as we complete a business combination. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Basis of Presentations
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with US GAAP and the
requirements of Regulation S-X promulgated by the
Use of Estimates In preparing financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates, required by management, include the recoverability of long-lived assets, allowance for doubtful accounts, and the reserve for obsolete and slow-moving inventories. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue Recognition The Company follows Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09 (and related amendments subsequently issued in 2016), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). FASB ASC Topic 606 requires use of a new five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires the Company (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
InAugust 2020 , the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470- 20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity ("ASU 2020-06"), which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This ASU (1) simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options, that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock; (2) revises the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer's own stock and classified in stockholders' equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification; and (3) revises the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to require entities to calculate diluted earnings per share (EPS) for convertible instruments by using the if-converted method. In addition, entities must presume share settlement for purposes of calculating diluted EPS when an instrument may be settled in cash or shares. ForSEC filers, excluding smaller reporting companies, ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning afterDecember 15, 2021 including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning afterDecember 15, 2020 . For all other entities, ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning afterDecember 15, 2023 , including interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption and cannot adopt the guidance in an interim reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2020-06 may have on its financial statements and related disclosures. 15
