The following management's discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction
with the Company's historical consolidated financial statements and the related
notes thereto included in our audited financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2020, and the notes thereto. The management's discussion and
analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations and
intentions. Any statements that are not statements of historical fact are
forward-looking statements. When used, the words "believe," "plan," "intend,"
"anticipate," "target," "estimate," "expect" and the like, and/or future tense
or conditional constructions ("will," "may," "could," "should," etc.), or

Overview
On May 15, 2013, Receivable Acquisition & Management Corporation, a Delaware
corporation, completed the acquisition of Cornerstone Program Advisors LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company ("Cornerstone") and Sustainable Energy
Industries, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Sustainable"), and the Company
assumed the operations of each of these entities (the "Merger"). Receivable
Acquisition & Management Corporation had operated as a business purchasing and
collecting upon defaulted consumer receivables; those operations were ceased and
collections on any remaining receivables are being run off. Cornerstone has been
in the business of managing energy infrastructure projects, specializing in the
non-profit marketplace. Sustainable is in the business of developing, marketing,
and implementing clean tech technologies. The Company has refocused on managing
energy infrastructure projects and developing applications for an
environmentally benign heat conversion technology with particular focus on the
geothermal and waste-heat-to-energy production markets.
Shareholders approved a name change to PwrCor, Inc. at the shareholder meeting
in January, 2017, by a large majority of shareholder votes. The corporate name
change in Delaware to "PwrCor, Inc." was effective on March 3, 2017.
Results of Operations
During the three period ended March 31, 2021, the Company had a net loss of
($45,779) on revenues of $9,875 versus a net loss of ($25,906), on revenues of
$113,770 in the three month period ended March 31, 2020. The higher net loss in
the most recent three month period in 2021 as compared to the corresponding
period last year was due primarily to lower consulting fee receipts in
connection with reduced client activity due primarily to a reduction in business
activity as a direct result of the impact of Covid-19 on the operations of our
project management customers, which are currently all hospitals.
Revenue
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same
period in 2020 from the Company's major customer showed a 91% decrease due to
reduced activity with the customer. The margin of project management revenue
over the corresponding cost of subcontracted consultants for such projects has
decreased from 2020 to 2021 due to a changing mix of customer and consultant
activity. This gross profit for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, was
20% of revenues, versus 29% for the corresponding period in 2020.
The 91% revenue decline for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as
compared to the corresponding period from 2020, was as noted largely
attributable to the effects of the Covid-19 virus on business activity.

Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 were
$55,654, versus $139,676 during the three month period ended March 31, 2020. The
60% decrease in operating expenses in the three month period in 2021, against
the corresponding period in 2020, was primarily due to lower costs of
subcontracted consultants naturally resulting from the decreased project
management activity noted above.
Consulting Expenses
Consulting expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 are a net
total after downward adjustments for prior-period accruals. The Company
outsources a significant portion of its project management, oversight and
advisory activities to a carefully selected group of small firms, individuals
and subcontractors with expertise specific to the projects underway. As of the
quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company was using two such consulting
resources. Consulting expenses consistently constitute the bulk of operating
costs for the project advisory and management business activities of the
Company, and accordingly generally track revenue.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2021, the Company had a working capital deficit (that is, total
current assets minus total current liabilities) of ($541,072) versus a working
capital deficit of ($499,557) as of the year ended December 31, 2020. The
working capital deficit increase was due primarily to a reduction in receivables
and increase in payables.
For the period ended March 31, 2021, the Company had cash of $41,600 versus
$49,729 at December 31, 2020. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, net
cash (used) by operating activities was ($8,129) versus net cash (used) by
operating activities of ($56,368) for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The
major factor in the change in net cash from operating activities was the
conservation of cash during this difficult business period.
For the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, no cash was
provided by financing activities and no cash was used in investing activities.
The worldwide emergence of a novel and in some cases fatal coronavirus has
caused major disruptions to daily life domestically and around the world. Most
important to the Company, these developments are causing significant changes in
a wide array of business activities and disruptions in capital markets.
Regarding the first, the Company has been engaged in projects at hospitals
primarily in the New York City, which have been dealing with unprecedented
losses to their normal business and less than forecast demand for virus-related
treatments. Dealing with these financial losses, there can be no assurance that
these hospitals will resume the Company's activity in the near term, and if so
at what level of activity, or even whether the hospital environments will be
sufficiently safe for the Company's consultants to continue to work on-site.
Regarding the second, the dramatic swings in financial markets and the related
uncertainties are likely to challenge efforts to obtain additional capital
during this pandemic and, possibly, in its near term aftermath.
While the Company's has open purchase orders with its primary client,
construction projects involving capital expenditures for facilities expansion
and renovation are being re-prioritized in light of the financial impact of the
Covid emergency, and some have been postponed. Work that continues is primarily
offsite, and at a modified pace. The timing of returning to normality is
unpredictable at the current time.
Given these major uncertainties, the Company cannot reliably project its results
from its project management operations for at least the next six months, so it
is uncertain whether any such revenue, together with existing cash and possible
cash infusions by major stockholders, will be sufficient to finance its
operations for the next twelve months.

In 2020, the Company applied for and received temporary federal assistance in
the form of an economic injury disaster loan, known as EIDL. The Company is
using the loan for qualifying expenses.
The Company has engaged the services of an investment bank and is actively
seeking additional capital to cover any working capital needs and to fund growth
initiatives in its identified markets. However, progress with those initiatives
linked closely to the oil and gas markets may continue to lag due to continued
financial uncertainty in those markets. There can be no assurance that any new
debt or equity financing arrangement will be available to the Company when
needed on acceptable terms, if at all. The initiative is also in the process of
actively introducing the Company's engine technology to businesses in a set of
identified key markets to accelerate the commercialization of the Company's
latest generation product. These efforts also have no assurance, particularly in
an environment where businesses are being disrupted, of achieving their
objectives at sufficient scale to achieve desirable levels of cash flow. The
continued operations of the Company are largely dependent on its ability to
collect its receivables and increase revenues.
Income Taxes
The Company did not record any income tax provision for the three month period
ended March 31, 2021, and does not expect any material income tax liability for
the period. There were approximately $1,800 in minimum taxes paid in the three
months ended March 31, 2021, most covering earlier periods.
Critical Accounting Policy & Estimates
Our Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations section discusses our financial statements, which have been prepared
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including
those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, financing operations,
and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments
on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not
readily apparent from other sources.
Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and
conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the
preparation of our financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate
carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent
from other sources. These accounting policies are described at relevant sections
in this discussion and analysis and in the condensed consolidated financial
statements included in this quarterly report.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.
