REASONS TO INVEST

 * Capitalization: We have previously raised a total of $26.4 million through
   grants, founders, and private accredited investors. We also have over 1000
   new investors from our first CF round, and recently secured a $1 million line
   of credit for project financing of our government contracts. 




 * Emerging Growth Stage: We have established commercial sales in the U.S.,
   Canada, and the EU and have grown by 157% in the last year. We have a
   business model that includes multi-year recurring revenue. 




 * Economic Moat: Whooshh offers up to 80% cost reduction over traditional
   competing solutions. We have achieved regulatory acceptance in key markets
   with 20 independent studies over 7 years,  and have 50 patents granted to
   date in developed markets (source).
   




 * Market: Our estimated Total Addressable Market is $1.25 Trillion; as there
   are over 1 million dams and barriers worldwide, most of which lack any fish
   passage, much less capable of sorting out invasive fish species. Hydropower
   remains the world’s largest renewable energy source.






*The market calculations above are calculations from internal research - source







We raised over $1.4M in our first Regulation CF offering, which closed earlier
this year. With the passage of the 1+ trillion dollar Infrastructure package in
the spring and the 1+trillion dollar Inflation Reduction Act this summer,
federal money is now reaching renewable energy projects, including environmental
improvement projects such as fish passage at dams. We now have an urgent need to
expand our sales and marketing teams and grow our operations. Since we filed our
last funding round, we have been busy executing on our strategic plans.










We believe the funds we raise in this round will help us tackle a few key
initiatives that will drive our success in 2023 and beyond. Objectives include:
launching a state-supported initiative to deliver multiple Passage Portal
systems in six key Washington state watersheds; delivering a complete Guardian
system to tackle the invasive carp problem in the midwest; and hiring more top
talent to accelerate our growth.






OUR MISSIOn





SAVE -  FEED - GROW

At Whooshh, our guiding principles are simple.




SAVE the fish: We deploy novel products designed and developed to improve fish
welfare, fish passage and spawning success.

FEED the planet: Fish provide critical nutrients for the planet’s ecosystems and
are the number one protein for the people on it.

GROW clean energy: By enabling more efficient use of our water resources, we
enable the growth of clean renewable energy.

OUR PROGRESS HAS CREATED A FORMIDABLE FOUNDATION FOR OUR FUTURE GROWTH






THE PROBLEM





HYDROPOWER IS NEEDED TO MEET WORLD WIDE PUBLIC POLICY CLEAN ENERGY GOALS AND
COMBAT CLIMATE CHANGE




Supporting native fish populations is more critical now than ever. Native fish
are an integral part of their habitats and ecosystems - playing an important
role in nutrient cycles, and a crucial part of the food web (source).




Many anadromous fish like salmon, eel, and shad migrate thousands of miles to
reach their native rivers and freshwater spawning grounds each year (source,
source).




Now, faced with growing challenges such as climate change, inaccessible
habitats, and invasive species, we've found that this crucial migration is
becoming increasingly difficult.









There is an urgent need for safe, effective fish passage without also enabling
access for invasive fish species that can out-compete native fish species.










Our Technology Solutions





SAFE FISH PASSAGE, NO MATTER THE ENVIRONMENT






“ The fish pass through without so much as a scratch. Also, you won’t have to
divert water, as you do in a ladder system. Out here, the economy is all about
agriculture, and water is gold. That’s what makes Whooshh such a great
concept.”  Mark Johnston – Yakama Nation Fisheries Biologist




We believe that supporting renewable energy is an important part of the fight
against climate change, and an essential component of caring for our planet
earth (source).




Hydropower is the largest producer of renewable energy in the world - so we
developed a better way for hydropower and healthy native fish populations to
coexist and grow (source).




Our goal is to restore native fish species to their historical numbers to feed
the planet and the people on it - while simultaneously enabling
hydropower producers a more efficient use of the shared water resources.






Our Passage Portal™ products permit fish to swim in on their own, and the
automated FishL Recognition™ system selectively sorts the fish before they glide
through our Migrator™ tubes, regardless of geography, height of obstacle, water
temperatures or changing water levels,  …. all in less than a minute.




Your browser does not support HTML5 video.




We have integrated scanning, sorting and invasive species removal features in
order to enable selective fish passage. This way, we never stop collecting
images and data and learning about the local habitat - and the fish who call it
home.




Your browser does not support HTML5 video. 

Here's how it works: Fish swim in on their own, have their picture taken using
our FishL Recognition™ scanner to determine among other factors, species and
size. It can perform selective fish passage, ensuring only native fish swim
through a fishway upstream or downstream, and it can remove unwanted or invasive
species.




Your browser does not support HTML5 video.




The maximum capacity of one Passage Portal™ is 40 fish per minute or 57,600 fish
per day, more than many rivers see in an entire year. In short, we enable fish
to easily transport themselves over barriers without stress or injury, all in a
flexible, misted, temperature-controlled Migrator tube. Fish float over land or
infrastructure barriers from point A to Point B in seconds, without requiring
huge amounts of water and power as is often required for traditional systems.

OUR BUsiness





FROM 2021 TO 2022, OUR REVENUE GREW BY 157% 




We began generating significant revenue in 2020 after completing our R&D on our
first generation Passage Portal™.  That year we achieved a net profit for the
first time. We recognized  $5.6 million in revenue, with an EBIDTA of $2.82
million and a gross margin over 60%.










With Covid 19 shutdowns, project delays, and travel restrictions in 2021, our
product and service revenue was hit hard.  2022 business revenue is rebounding
and revenue in the first half of 2022, as of August is already 157% more than
the entirety of 2021 revenue. 










With the U.S. federal government's passage of the $1+Trillion dollar
infrastructure bill (source), and more recently passed Inflation Reduction Act
(which favors climate, energy, health care, and taxes and the lifting of Covid
restrictions) we expect 2023 and the next 10 years will continue to see robust
growth.

HOw We ARe transformative





OUR TECHNOLOGY CHANGES THE PUBLIC NARRATIVE ABOUT DAMS AND FISH PASSAGE WHILE
OFFERING A WIN-WIN SOLUTION







Our systems are modular, flexible, and cost a fraction of the amount required to
build and operate a custom civil engineered solution, for a better, safer,
faster, migration for native fish without spilling water.




Your browser does not support HTML5 video.




Our systems assist native fish to pass over dams in seconds to reclaim access to
their spawning grounds. This means fish expend far less energy, experience less
stress, and are therefore reaching cleaner, safer, water and spawning habitat,
with fewer pre-spawning mortalities.









We also do not require concrete infrastructure or any extra, unnecessary use of
water or impose a permanent environmental footprint.




Our gentle handling of fish without producing waste water, reduces injuries,
mortalities, and stress - overall improving survivability, fecundity, and
ultimately our product value.

EXPERTS AGREE: A THANKSGIVING UPDATE


EXPERTS AGREE: A THANKSGIVING UPDATE

 

An article recently came out citing a Stanford University study titled “Dams
could play a big role in feeding the world more sustainably, researchers find”.
Even if they reached that conclusion reluctantly, we reached the same conclusion
some time ago. We also believed that the transition away from carbon fuels would
take time and because of the limited time, we were risking the fish today
(Save), and with them the planet and the people on it (Feed), and that the
transition to renewable energy (Grow) would take time , and therefore the
world’s largest renewable, hydropower, would play a critical role in the
transition to a zero carbon world over the next 50 -100 years, so that nature’s
balance could be restored (Heal). 




Looking at the math, we concluded that if we took down a dam a day in the USA,
it would take 234 years before all dams were removed.  If we used the same math
for the more than 1 million dams, it would take more than 2,000 years. Today in
the U.S. it takes years before a single dam is removed.   The math doesn’t work;
our planet continues to heat up, the rivers dry up, and we risk our collective
future on this planet.




Thanksgiving is a time to remember how much we have to be thankful for today and
the bounty that supports our world population of eight billion people.  Bill
Gates may believe that nuclear fusion is the future; but even his Breakthrough
Energy, and the billionaires who fund it, have recently reached the conclusion
that there is not enough time to develop and deploy this technology to avoid
climate disaster, more immediate and adaptive measures must be taken now.  They
are advocating interim adaptive measures now, to help us transition and survive
over the next 50-100 years. This conclusion is sound in our opinion. Because of
politics, we have wasted too much time, as much as seven generations.




So what does all of this have to do with Whooshh? It is a little-known fact that
most dams in the world have no hydroelectric dams on them.  In the USA,
approximately 3%, or approximately 2,500 dams of the nearly 90,000 U.S. dams
produce any electricity at all.  Most of these non-powered dams have no fish
passage. When hydropower is added to non-powered dams, Federal and State law
usually require that fish passage be a condition of adding hydropower
production; fish passage can come even before the hydro production is
operational! We need affordable clean energy today, and hydropower has been the
largest renewable resource world over for the last 100+ years. We have developed
the products that enable safe, timely and effective fish passage, that is
modular, and can work at almost any site.  The technology can be scaled,
produced and installed quickly. In twenty years, all 90,000 dams in the U.S.
could have fish passage if public policy catches up with the scientists and the
billionaire alarms.

 

As we have all heard over the years, fish is the most efficient source of
non-plant proteins.  It takes 7 pounds of feed, to produce 1 pound of beef; 5
pounds of feed to produce 1 pound of pork, and 3 pounds of feed to produce 1
pound of chicken, but it only takes 1.1 pounds of feed to produce1 pound of
salmon. Plant proteins are not the complete answer either, it takes 1,900
gallons of water to produce just 1 pound of almonds.  We need fish, water, and
clean energy – the compelling need is becoming more apparent each day – the
Whooshh way.

 

Our fish passage systems require only a mist in the tube to enable fish passage
over the dams to reach their spawning grounds. Each adult female salmon produces
2,000 – 16,000 eggs. Other fish species can produce hundreds of thousands of
eggs. Saving the fish gets us back on the path to recovery and a better future
for all.  

 

This is our mission, and by investing with Whooshh, you are a part of the
solution.  We need your help and those of your friends and family. We can change
our future for the better, but it requires significant investment now, from all
of us, who have received so much from mother earth in our lifetimes. 

 

This Thanksgiving I am thankful for more than 110 new investors who started the
current capital raise campaign, and the 1,100 who came before and every one of
our employees.  Our investor numbers continue to grow.  Federal and state
agencies are responding by putting incentives, credits, and dollars to work for
fish passage. We must now guide agencies and operators to the Whooshh way or
those dollars will not go nearly far enough. When I see a $250 million price tag
for a single fish passage project, and we know we can provide better fish
passage in a fraction of the time; at 10X more projects with those same dollars,
the Whooshh way is ever more obvious.  We don’t have time to waste. I hope you
agree.  Make this Whooshh update the topic at your dinner table. Share it; and
then instead of spending your hard-earned money on a Black Friday purchase,
choose to invest in a clean, green, fish filled future.

 

Wishing you a thoughtful and grateful holiday.

 

Sincerely,

 

Vince

Vincent E Bryan III, CEO

HOOPA CONTRACT DELIVERED - NOW THAT WAS FAST!

In the time it took me to fly across the country last Tuesday to the East
Coast, and help negotiate a new customer proposal, and fly back again on
Thursday, the Whooshh team shipped and delivered a Tuber™ system, with Salmon
Cannon™ technology from, our Seattle offices to N. California.  It was set up,
installed, tested, and our Hoopa tribe customer began transporting salmon before
I arrived back in Seattle. 

 

Image 1: The Whooshh Tuber system transiting salmon from two traps the day
after delivery. 

We invoiced the customer after acceptance, and we received confirmation that the
wire for full balance was being sent to our bank account.  Now, that was fast.
 Traditional fish passage and trap and haul operations can’t compare to our
mobile turnkey solutions. The team reported that there was a lot of hooting and
hollering going on when the fish started passaging through the tubes. Before the
end of the day the Hoopa tribe asked for a quote on another Salmon Cannon™.
 That’s exactly what we hope to hear. 

Cheers to our research, design, development, deployment, and finance team.
 Another happy tribe and another big step toward food sovereignty.

HOOPA THURSDAY THANKS

I’m updating you from Maryland today where I have come for some customer and
partner meetings.  Before leaving Seattle on Tuesday, I stopped in the shop to
check on the status of the Tuber™ system our team was preparing to ship on its
trailer for the trip down to California and a destination with the Hoopa Tribe
for use with Chinook salmon.  It's always an exciting time because it’s the
precise moment when everything needs to come together, and all the planning and
work reveal themselves. 






Over the last couple of years, with the supply chain issues we all have heard
about so often, the challenge of timing logistics has caused us to build in
greater and greater lead times.  For example, the system control panel that is
being mounted on the trailer in the image here contains processors, chips, and
sensors that are uniquely configured and programmed for our product uses. Just
one missing piece can upset the entire delivery schedule, and with migratory
fish, you could miss the whole season. 



This is no different than what happens to migratory fish when they encounter a
barrier in a watershed, it upsets their nature driven delivery schedule as they
try to complete their circle of life and spawn in their natal waters. If they
don’t “deliver” on time, the next generation of fish is either lost entirely or
at a severe disadvantage because they will be subjected to seasonal changes
which their genetics are not as well equipped to handle at that stage of their
lives, and the risk of a downward spiral for the species becomes more likely. 

Over the years, we have found the tribes to be among the most receptive to
our innovative fish passage technologies.  Perhaps it is because they are most
in touch with the careful balance that mother nature requires, and the
dependencies that all the elements require to be delivered on time and at the
right location, to maintain nature's balance. So, when someone asks me whether
our passage systems, by enabling fish to pass dams quickly and safely is
upsetting the Darwinian theory of “survival of the fittest” my answer is always
the same: “No, I say, what we are doing is returning the river above the dam to
its more natural state and assisting the fish for a timely arrival. Only when
it’s a more natural and neutral playfield, can a theory like survival of the
fittest be unbiased.” 

As I reflect on these thoughts for this update, I realize how much thanks
we owe to the tribes who have helped us better understand what the priorities
must be, helped us develop better fish passage products than have ever existed
before, and backed up their words by being among the earliest adopters of our
products. So, thank
you to the Hoopa, Colville, UCUT, Puyallup, Suquamish, Umatilla, Yakama, help
return our watersheds, environment, and climate to a more balanced natural
state. Even when there are many barriers along the way, we can help today. 

If you want to participate by owning shares in Whooshh Innovations Inc., you
can, by directly investing in the Company.  It’s a great time to invest

WHY ARE WE OFFERING VIP BONUS SHARES?

We have done the math. We are offering the generous VIP bonus shares because it
will help (i) our current investors counter any dilution that can otherwise
occur during a capital round while also providing everyone with a nice up-round,
(ii) save the Company early marketing dollars attracting new investors in the
early going of the campaign.     

There are other early rewards and volume rewards during this round, but all
later rewards, including Owner rewards, will not be nearly as generous as those
for the VIP perk. [Click here. See the Terms tab for more details]

Let me briefly explain how the VIP bonus shares work via an example.  The first
round our share price was $1.50 per share. This round the share price is $3.00
per share.  By offering 50% bonus shares this round, you will effectively be
buying the new shares at an average price of $2.00 per share, up from $1.50 in
the last round, but well below the current valuation at $3.00 per share. 

 As an example only, the math works like this:

Purchase 200 shares now for $600.00

200 shares x 50% = 100 bonus shares **

$600 / 200 shares = $2.00 per share

This is a BIG BONUS for you, and more early days momentum for us, with minimal
dilution for all. If buying more shares at this time does not make sense for
you, we totally understand, just be sure to look at all our Updates at the
bottom of our Startengine offering page and especially look at the Terms page
and the orange box and current count down on the Rewards tab to know your
options.

Click here to learn about our all perks or to invest today!

Sincerely,

Vincent E Bryan III, CEO
 Whooshh Innovations Inc.




**In order to receive perks from an investment, one must submit a single
investment in the same offering that meets the minimum perk requirement. Bonus
shares from perks will not be granted if an investor submits multiple
investments that, when combined, meet the perk requirement. All perks occur when
the offering is completed.

WE HAVE MOMENTUM!

I was heartened to learn this morning that we are now listed on StartEngine’s
“Companies with the “Most Momentum” after just a few days. Perhaps this is
because of our generous Bonus share perk (check it out before it's too late
– it's HUGE), but the momentum I am talking about today extends to the
marketplace in which we operate.  When an investor is looking at potential
investments, one of the key questions should be: “Is there a compelling need for
the products the company offers?” 

In determining compelling need one of the first places to look at is the
geo-political/economic mega trends.  A couple interesting articles, one focused
on the gold mine of investing in companies that address climate change problems
and another on hydropower and fish, are demonstrative of the urgent need for our
solution when the world needs more renewable energy.  Electricity is the power
source of the future.  The Department of Energy thinks so too.  Section 247 of
the Infrastructure Improvements and Jobs Act was added to the Energy Policy Act
of 2-05 last session which provides a 30% credit and up to $5M dollars for
qualifying {Hydroelectric] projects for:  

‘‘(3) environmental improvements, including— 

(A) adding or improving safe and effective fish passage, including new or 

upgraded turbine technology, fish ladders, fishways, and all other 

associated technology, equipment, or other fish passage technology to a 

qualified hydroelectric facility” 

Even the debate yesterday between Senator Patty Murray (D) and candidate Tiffany
Smiley (R) included a robust exchange on the dam v. salmon subject. What did
Smiley and Murray disagree on? Smiley and Murray disagreed on a proposal to
breach four hydroelectric dams on the Snake River to save declining salmon runs,
with Smiley opposing it on grounds that the dams were essential to the economy.
Murray said salmon are also essential and she would work to save them. 

I often refer to a TED talk on Leadership. In short, when you have a great idea,
that is “out of the box’ you are often discounted initially, but when others
start jumping on board, as demonstrated in the TED Talk, momentum builds
quickly.  When even the candidates are debating the problem, you know there is a
compelling need.  

Climate changes and energy prices have made the need for a solution acute. The
Federal Government is throwing huge incentives at operators to solve it, and the
$5M limit per project works to our advantage since our products can fully
qualify in most cases. Let’s keep our momentum going – we have an opportunity to
make a huge difference for the planet and our investors if we are aggressive in
the market now.  Changing the momentum of the status quo is hard, but as
financial experts like to say: ‘Don’t fight the Fed ” .  Invest today and get
the largest Bonus share perks we offer.   

Let’s Whooshh!

NEWS FROM THE FRONT LINES: A COUNTER OFFENSIVE IS ABOUT TO BEGIN

Up to 80% of the fish in the rivers in the Midwest and Southeast have been
overtaken by non-native fish species such as carp. These invasive fish threaten
not only the ecosystems where they already reside, but they continue to expand
the territory which they occupy. Fisheries managers have focused on slowing down
the assault of these fish by deploying various barrier systems and recently
encouraging a new commercial fisheries market. Unfortunately, these defensive
strategies too often also impact those native fish remaining in the rivers. 

Enter the Whooshh™ Guardian™ system, an environmentally thoughtful system that
is targeted at the problem fish species. Last week we entered into a contract,
with funding support originating from the Illinois Department of Natural
Resources, to deploy a new weapon in the fight against the fish invaders. The
agreement’s immediate value is only $324,900 and will be used by researchers to
learn how, when and where to optimize its use, but we anticipate its long-term
impact for the Company and its investors could be enormous. The Mississippi,
Missouri, Illinois, and many other major rivers need to be rehabilitated and the
carp removed from the waterways before they reach the Great Lakes and do damage
to the sport and commercial fisheries there.  

We are excited to deliver the first floating Guardian system, featuring
our FishL Recognition™ technology to identify native fish from the four invasive
carp species in these rivers, so that it may then be possible
to automatically remove these fish at identified high impact harvest locations
in the future. Having secured a contract last week, we are now looking forward
to helping change the battlefield by bringing a floating mobile system to the
Illinois waters, so that native fish species numbers can once again be
restored in these watersheds. 

You can help by joining other investors who are signing up here now. 

Thank you for your understanding and financial support. 

Sincerely, 

Vincent E Bryan III, CEO 

Whooshh Innovations Inc.

HOW INVESTING WORKS

Cancel anytime before 48 hours before a rolling close or the offering end date.




WHY STARTENGINE?

REWARDSWe want you to succeed and get the most out of your money by offering
rewards and memberships!
SECUREYour info is your info. We take pride in keeping it that way!
DIVERSE INVESTMENTSInvest in over 200 start-ups and collectibles!

How much can I invest?



With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10%
of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater.
There are no restrictions for accredited investors.

With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or
net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the
greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth
greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the
two amounts.





When will I receive my shares?



At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this
time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will
receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription
Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.

Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or
withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are
included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned
subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that
withdrawal.





What will the return on my investment be?



StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is
closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list
shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine
has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live
offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may
want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment
outcomes.





Can I cancel my investment?



For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at
any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the
offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to
their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this
timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be
invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the
investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your
investment can no longer be canceled.

For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once
the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own
cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the
company’s offering circular.

Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the
date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you
will receive your refund within 10 business days.

Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to
clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything
we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment
needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the
account associated with the investment.





What is the difference between Regulation Crowdfunding and Regulation A+?



Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help
entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited
investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor
limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise,
and differing disclosure and filing requirements. To learn more about Regulation
Crowdfunding, click here, and for Regulation A+, click here.
