NOTE 1
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10Q of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations have been included.  The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year.  When reading the financial information contained in this Quarterly Report, reference should be made to the financial statements and notes contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
DIVESTITURES
 
Effective June 30, 2010, Carbonics Capital Corporation and Viridis Capital, LLC (“Viridis”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Viridis acquired 100% of the stock of Sustainable Systems, Inc. (“Culbertson”) from Carbonics Capital in return for $10. The financial results of this subsidiary are presented as discontinued operations as of December 31, 2009 and for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 .
 
NOTE 2
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
Carbonics Capital Corporation (“we,” “our,” “us,” “Carbonics,” or the “Company”) was founded to recycle carbon dioxide into value-added products. Our activities during 2010 have primarily involved research and development involving technology capable recycling of carbon dioxide in applications involving coal-fired power production. The Company’s research and development activities have mostly involved laboratory scale bench testing.
 
NOTE 3
GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company had an accumulated deficit of $(135,575,496) at June 30, 2010.  As of June 30, 2010 the Company’s current liabilities exceeded current assets by $8,089,223, which includes convertible debentures (including the value of underlying conversion features) of $6,535,327 and accrued interest payable of $1,142,850. The Company’s working capital deficit net of these amounts is $411,046. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans include raising additional proceeds from debt and equity transactions and completing strategic acquisitions.
 
NOTE 4
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
USE OF ESTIMATES
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and disclosures of contingencies during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from management’s estimates.
 
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
 
The Company accounts for stock and stock options issued for services and compensation to employees under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718. For non-employees, the fair market value of the Company's stock on the date of stock issuance or option/grant is used.  The Company determines the fair market value of options issued under the Black-Scholes Pricing Model. Under the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee's requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 for cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.  The fair value of notes payable and long-term debt approximates their carrying value as the stated or discounted rates of the debt reflect recent market conditions.  It was not practical to estimate the fair value of the convertible debt due to the nature of these
 
 
8
 
 
items.  These estimates would be based on the carrying amounts, maturities, effective interest rates and volatility of the Company's stock. The Company does not believe it is practical due to the significant volatility of the Company's stock.
 
Effective July 1 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures .  This topic defines fair value for certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance supersedes all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.

The Company accounted for the convertible debentures in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity , as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible debentures could result in the note principal and related accrued interest being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares.
 
Effective July 1 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820-10-55-23A, Scope Application to Certain Non-Financial Assets and Certain Non-Financial Liabilities , delaying application for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities as permitted. ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:
 
Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 1 inputs include active exchange-traded securities and exchange-based derivatives.
 
Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 2 inputs include fixed income securities, non-exchange-based derivatives, mutual funds, and fair-value hedges.
 
Level 3 — unobservable inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 3 inputs include infrequently-traded, non-exchange-based derivatives and commingled investment funds, and are measured using present value pricing models.
 
The following table presents the embedded derivative, the Company’s only financial assets measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets on a recurring basis and their level within the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 30, 2010:

The following table reconciles, for the six months ended June 30, 2010, the beginning and ending balances for financial instruments that are recognized at fair value in the consolidated financial statements:
 
Balance of embedded  conversion liability at December 31, 2009

Reductions in fair value due to principal conversions

Change in fair value of beneficial conversion features of debentures
   
16,295
 
Balance at June 30, 2010
 
$
451,240
 

The fair value of the conversion features are calculated at the time of issuance and the Company records a conversion liability for the calculated value. The Company recognizes changes in fair value for the conversion liability in subsequent periods, which are added to the principal of the debenture.  The Company also recognizes reductions in fair value for conversions of the underlying debenture.
 
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
The Company accounted for the convertible debentures in accordance with   FASB Accounting Standards Codification 480, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible debentures could result in the note principal and related accrued interest being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares.

NOTE 5
STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
 
SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK
 
Shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock (the “Series C Shares”) may be converted by the holder into Company common stock. The conversion ratio is such that the full 1,000,000 Series C Shares originally issued convert into Company common shares representing 80% of the fully diluted outstanding common shares outstanding after the conversion (which includes all common shares outstanding plus all common shares potentially issuable upon the conversion of all derivative securities not held by the holder). The holder of Series C Shares may cast the number of votes at a shareholders meeting or by written consent that equals the number of common shares into which the Series C Shares are convertible on the record date for the shareholder action. In the event the Board of Directors declares a dividend payable to Company common shareholders, the holders of Series C Shares will receive the dividend that would be payable if the Series C Shares were converted into Company common shares prior to the dividend.

ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Carbonics Capital Corporation (“we,” “our,”, “us,” “Carbonics,” or the “Company”) was founded to recycle carbon dioxide into value-added products.
 
Our activities during 2010 have primarily involved research and development involving technology capable of recycling carbon dioxide in applications involving coal-fired power production. The Company’s research and development activities mostly involve laboratory scale bench testing.
 
We have also implemented our previously announced plan with respect to seeking acquisition of strategic and accretive assets. On August 17, 2010, we acquired 100% of the membership interests of Westport Energy, LLC. Westport Energy is an exploration stage company engaged in the exploration for coalbed methane in the Coos Bay region of Oregon. Westport Energy holds leases to approximately 104,000 acres of prospective coalbed methane lands in the Coos Bay Basin. Westport Energy was organized in the state of Delaware in October 2008 and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of New Earthshell Corporation, which is, in turn, wholly-owned by YA Global Investments, L.P.  Westport intends to initially pursue drilling opportunities under its leases by seeking joint ventures with larger oil and gas companies interested in developing coalbed methane properties in the Coos Bay Basin.
 
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This requires the Company’s management to make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of the contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions will also affect the reported amounts of certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In the opinion of management, all adjustments which, except as described elsewhere herein are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Actual results could differ materially based on any changes in the estimates and assumptions that the Company uses in the preparation of its financial statements and any changes in the Company’s future operational plans.
 
The Company accounts for convertible debt in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification, Topic 815, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible debenture could result in the note principal and related accrued interest being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. We calculate the fair value of the conversion feature at the time of issuance and record a conversion liability for the calculated value, which is added to the carrying value of the debenture.  We also recognize changes in value for accretion of the conversion liability from present value to fair value over the term of the note.

Net Income (Loss)
 
Income (loss) from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $(620,057) as compared to $4,281,960 for the same period in 2009.  Loss from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $115,174 as compared to $1,032,413 for the same period in 2009.  Net income (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $(735,231) as compared to $3,249,547 for the same period in 2009. These changes were mainly attributable to the non-cash income in 2009 associated with the conversion features as well as the reduction in expenses due to the disposal of the Culbertson operations.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
The Company had $8,089,223 in current liabilities at June 30, 2010, and may need to obtain additional financing to satisfy these obligations. Thus, the Company’s liquidity needs have decreased relative to the amounts required by the Company during 2010, however, the Company requires new sources of capital to execute on its ongoing and planned research and development and other business development activities. The Company is also in need of financing to acquire targeted strategic assets.
 
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash provided by financing activities.  For the six months ended June 30, 2010, net cash used by our operating activities was $5,800 as compared to $174,003 used in the six months ended June 30, 2009. The Company’s capital requirements consist of general working capital needs. The Company’s capital resources consist primarily of proceeds from issuance of debt and common stock. The Company plans to fund ongoing operations during 2010 with a combination of proceeds from the issuance of debt and equity.

The Company had a working capital deficit of $8,089,223 at June 30, 2010, which includes convertible debentures of $6,535,327.
 
At the present time, Carbonics Capital has no source of committed capital. We are currently investigating the availability of both equity and debt financing necessary to complete the Company’s current projects.  We do not know at this time if the necessary funds can be obtained nor on what terms they may be available.

ITEM 4
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer participated in and supervised the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
In the course of making our assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, we identified a material weakness.  This material weakness consisted of inadequate staffing and supervision within the bookkeeping and accounting operations of our company.  The lack of employees prevents us from segregating disclosure duties.  The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews.  Based on the results of this assessment, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that because of the above condition, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
 
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
