OCLN: NT 10-Q · late filing
OriginClear, Inc. filed a Form 12b-25 (NT 10-Q) dated August 13, 2026, notifying the SEC that it cannot timely file its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
The stated reason is that the company's auditors are still in the process of reviewing the financial information, and the company cites unspecified 'unforeseeable circumstances' preventing timely completion without undue hardship and expense. OriginClear commits to filing the quarterly report no later than five calendar days after the original due date.
The company checked that all other required periodic reports were filed over the preceding 12 months and that it does not anticipate any significant change in results of operations versus the year-ago period. The notification was signed by CEO Cory Mertes, whose audit-level review delay is the kind of signal that can precede restatement or internal-control disclosures.

OCLN: 10-Q · periodic report
OriginClear reported a net loss of $2.07 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, despite a 43% year-over-year revenue increase to $2.0 million. The loss was driven primarily by a $909,505 non-cash loss on derivative liabilities and $320,000 in losses related to debt conversions, offsetting improved gross profit from its water treatment operations.
The company faces significant liquidity and solvency risks, disclosing a shareholders' deficit of $29.5 million and $13 million in derivative liabilities. Auditors have expressed substantial doubt about the company's ability to continue as a going concern, citing recurring losses and significant liquidity constraints. Management stated that continued investor support and access to capital markets will be necessary to sustain operations.
Governance and compliance issues are highlighted by the disclosure that internal controls were not effective as of the period end. Additionally, the company remains in default on $397,150 of preferred stock redemption obligations across four series, with no waivers or amended terms negotiated to date. The company is pursuing new joint ventures in Bitcoin mining and mobile water treatment to diversify revenue streams.
