NOTE TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
3Power Energy Group, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 18,
2002 under the name ATM Financial Corp. On April 1, 2008, the Company changed its name from ATM Financial Corp. to Prime Sun Power Inc.
On March 30, 2011, the Company changed its name from Prime Sun Power Inc. to 3Power Energy Group, Inc. and increased its authorized share capital to
300,000,000
shares. The Company plans to pursue a business model producing renewable generated electrical power and other alternative energies.
The Company's primary efforts is to sell electricity generated by solar, wind, hydro, biomass and other renewable energy resources and to develop, build and operate power plants based on these technologies. The core approach of the Company's business is to deliver energy in markets where there is an inherent energy gap between supply and demand or where there exists long term, stable, government back by financial support for development of renewable energy.
On May 13, 2011, pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), the Company consummated a reverse merger (“Merger”) with Seawind Energy Limited (“Seawind Energy”), Seawind Services Limited (“Seawind Services”, and together with Seawind Energy, the “Seawind”) and the shareholders of Seawind Energy (the “Seawind Group Shareholders” and together with the Company, and the Seawind Companies, the “Parties”). The Seawind Companies were formed under the laws of the United Kingdom.
In connection with the Merger, the Company issued
40,000,000
restricted shares of the Company’s common stock
to the Seawind Group Shareholders
(such acquisition is referred to herein as the “Seawind Acquisition”). Seawind was the surviving entity.
Upon completion of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Seawind became 3Power Group, Inc.'s wholly-owned subsidiary. For accounting purposes, the acquisition has been treated as a recapitalization of Seawind with Seawind as the acquirer (reverse acquisition). The historical financial statements prior to May 13, 2011 are those of Seawind Energy. The Merger was accounted for as a “reverse merger”, since the stockholders of Seawind owned a majority of the Company’s common stock immediately following the transaction and their management has assumed operational, management and governance control.
The transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization of Seawind pursuant to which Seawind was treated as the surviving and continuing entity. The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in connection with this transaction. Accordingly, the Company’s historical financial statements are those of Seawind immediately following the consummation of the reverse merger. The accompanying consolidated financial statements give retroactive effect to the recapitalization.
In anticipation of the closing of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company changed its name to 3Power Energy Group Inc. and increased its authorized share capital to
300,000,000
shares.
On July 4, 2011, the Seawind Energy Limited and Seawind Service Limited changed their name to 3Power Energy Limited and 3Power Project Service Limited, respectively.
Acquisition of Shala Energy sh .p .k:
On June 5, 2012, the Company and Shala Energy sh.p.k ("Shala") executed a master acquisition agreement (the “Acquisition Agreement”) where Shala agreed to transfer and the Company agreed to acquire
75
% of the equity of Shala. Under the Acquisition Agreement (the “Acquisition”), the closing of the acquisition is subject to the Company’s completion and satisfaction of the due diligence on Shala and Shala’s partners with respect to their shares in Shala and upon the Company’s payment of the first year premium for the insurance bond premium issued in favor of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Energy of Republic of Albania in replacement of the then existing bank guarantee issued in favor of Ministry of Economy, Trade and Energy of Republic of Albania for the Shala River Concession Agreement, in the amount of

3POWER ENERGY GROUP, INC.
NOTE TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended December 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2014. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended March 31, 2013 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on July 22, 2013.
Basis of presentation:
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-10, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605-10”) which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.
ASC 605-10 incorporates Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-25, Multiple-Element Arraignments (“ASC 605-25”). ASC 605-25 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The effect of implementing 605-25 on the Company's financial position and results of operations was not significant.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company applies Statement of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 220-10, Comprehensive Income (“ASC 220-10”). ASC 220-10 establishes standards for the reporting and displaying of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owners sources. It includes all changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. ASC 220-10 requires other comprehensive income (loss) to include foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars ("USD"). The Company's functional currency is British pounds ("GBP"). The consolidated financial statements are translated into USD in accordance with Codification ASC 830,
Foreign Currency Matters
. All assets and liabilities were translated at the current exchange rate, at respective balance sheet dates, shareholders' equity is translated at the historical rates and income statement items are translated at the average exchange rate for the reporting periods. The resulting translation adjustments are reported as other comprehensive income and accumulated other comprehensive income in the shareholders' equity in accordance with Codification ASC 220,
Comprehensive Income
.
Translation gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are translated into GBP at the rate on the date of the transaction and included in the results of operations as incurred.

Per share data:
The Company accounts for net loss per share in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”), which requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS.
Basic and diluted net loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss, by the weighted average number of outstanding shares of common stock, adjusted to give effect to the exchange ratio in the Merger in May 2011 (see Note 1), which was accounted for as recapitalization of the Company. The Company had no common stock equivalents as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.
Income taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of net operating loss and credit carry forwards and temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their respective financial reporting amounts measured at the current enacted tax rates. The Company records an estimated valuation allowance on its deferred income tax assets if it is not more likely than not that these deferred income tax assets will be realized.
The Company recognizes a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than
50
% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As of December 31, 2013 and March 31, 2013, the Company has not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits.

Segment Information
Accounting Standards Codification subtopic Segment Reporting 280-10 (“ASC 280-10”) establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. ASC 280-10 also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions how to allocate resources and assess performance. The information disclosed herein materially represents all of the financial information related to the Company’s principal operating segment.
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock, stock options and warrants using the fair value method promulgated by Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 480-10, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480-10”) which addresses the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. Therefore, results include non-cash compensation expense as a result of the issuance of stock, stock options and warrants and we expect to record additional non-cash compensation expense in the future.
The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”) which requires that all share-based payments to both employees and non-employees be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
There were various updates recently issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN MATTERS
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2013, the Company has a deficit of $
16,403,200
applicable to controlling interest compared with a deficit of $
15,639,210
applicable to controlling interest as of March 31, 2013, and has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows. For the nine months ended December 31, 2013, the Company sustained a net loss of $
763,990
compared to a net loss of $
1,283,004
for the nine months ended December 31, 2012. The Company will need additional financing which may take the form of equity or debt and the Company has converted certain liabilities into equity.
The Company has undertaken further steps as part of a plan to improve operations with the goal of sustaining its operations for the next twelve months and beyond to address its lack of liquidity by raising additional funds, either in the form of debt or equity or some combination thereof. However, there can be no assurance that the Company can successfully accomplish these steps and or business plans, and it is uncertain that the Company will achieve a profitable level of operations and be able to obtain additional financing.
In the event the Company is not able to increase its working capital, the Company will not be able to implement or may be required to delay all or part of its business plan, and its ability to attain profitable operations, generate positive cash flows from operating and investing activities and materially expand the business will be materially adversely affected. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the company be unable to continue in existence.

NOTE 8- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigations
On November 14, 2012, CRG Finance AG (“CRG”) filed a complaint in the District Court for Southern District of New York for allegedly beaching a promissory note (See Note 4 above). However, the Company’s contention is that the promissory note was satisfied by a third party, Rudana Investment Group AG.
On January 17, 2013, the Company filed a motion to compel arbitration and on May 23, 2013, the Court granted the Company’s Motion to Compel and ordered that CRG file its claims as a AAA arbitration. On June 5, 2013, CRG filed its statement of claim with the AAA in the International Center for Disputed Resolution division. The Company filed its statement answer on July 8, 2013. The Company denies the allegations in the complaint and claims it is without merit. The matter has been set for an evidentiary hearing at which time the arbitrator shall rule on CRG’s claims.
The Company is subject to certain legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of its business. Although occasional adverse decisions or settlements may occur, the Company believes that the final disposition of such matters should not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
