ALLIANCE BIOENERGY PLUS, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2017

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

 

Alliance Bioenergy Plus, Inc (the “Company”) is a technology company focused on emerging technologies in the renewable energy, biofuels and new technologies sectors. From inception through December 5, 2014, the Company was known as Alliance Media Group Holdings, Inc. At inception (March 28, 2012), the Company was organized as a vehicle to engage in the commercial production, distribution and exploitation of Motion Pictures and other Entertainment products. However, in December 2013, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, AMG Renewables, LLC (“AMG Renewables”), acquired the controlling interest (51%) in AMG Energy Group, LLC (“AMG Energy”), which owns a fifty percent (50%) interest of Carbolosic, LLC (“Carbolosic”), which holds an exclusive worldwide license to the University of Central Florida’s patented technology (U.S. Patent 8,062,428) known as “CTS™”. The CTS technology is a mechanical/chemical, dry process for converting cellulose material into sugar for use in the biofuels industry as well as other fine chemical manufacturing. The Company’s goal in acquiring the interest in AMG Energy was to develop the CTS technology to a commercial scale and then seek to license the technology to prospective licensees. In September 2014, the Company determined to focus all of the Company’s resources and personnel on the Company’s renewable energy holdings and future energy technologies and to divest the Company of its entertainment-related assets and subsidiaries. The Company therefore determined at that time to divest and sell off, close down or discontinue the operations of its entertainment-related subsidiaries. Effective December 5, 2014, amended the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to Alliance Bioenergy Plus, Inc., which is more appropriately descriptive of the new business direction of the Company.

 

Commencing in March 2016, the Company commenced action to restructure its energy-related holdings through the following transactions;

 

1) In March 2016, AMG Renewables, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, sold its interest in Carbolosic Plant 1 to Carbolosic Energy 1, LLLP, an unrelated third party, in exchange for satisfaction of the outstanding $1,250,000 loan and $36,488 interest between Carbolosic Plant 1 and Carbolosic Energy 1, LLLP. In connection with the transaction, an amount which the Company had prepaid to Carbolosic Energy 1, LLLP ($122,879) for future marketing and interest was eliminated in the sale.

 

2) In July 2016, the Company determined to restructure its energy holdings under a single wholly-owned subsidiary (AMG Energy) such that AMG Energy would own (i) the Company’s fifty percent (50%) interest of Carbolosic (which includes certain licensing rights in North America and Africa) and (ii) the Company’s 100% interest in EK Laboratories, Inc. At the same time, the Company’s interest in Carbolosic Plant 1 was divested. This restructuring was completed on September 19, 2016 when AMG Renewables merged into AMG Energy. Previously, the Company had completed transactions with certain related parties to acquire the remaining 49% of AMG Energy which was not owned by the Company in exchange for an aggregate of 10,240,094 shares of Company common stock and a restructuring of the balance due under a cash payable to the minority AMG Energy Shareholders.

 

Plan of Operation

 

The Company is now focused on the development and commercialization of the licensed technology it controls through its affiliate Carbolosic, LLC. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, AMG Energy, the Company owns Ek Laboratories, Inc. and a 50% interest in Carbolosic (which includes certain licensing rights in North America and Africa). The Company has a strategy that includes mergers and acquisitions of existing businesses in the renewable energy and sustainable products industries as well as sub-licensing its patented technologies that it controls through a master license with the University of Central Florida under affiliate Carbolosic and start-up activities which are focused on development of an increasing revenue stream, secure market share and enhancement of shareholder value.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern, which assumes the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated any revenue, has incurred losses since inception, has a working capital deficiency of $3,153,199 and may be unable to raise further equity. At March 31, 2017 the Company had incurred accumulated losses of $26,334,039, of which approximately $18,178,308 is non-cash, since its inception. The Company expects to incur significant additional liabilities in connection with its start-up activities. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities when they become due and to generate sufficient revenues from its operations to pay its operating expenses. These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classifications of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty. There are no assurances that the Company will continue as a going concern.

 

Management believes that the Company’s future success is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations, generate cash from operating activities and obtain additional financing. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations, sell additional shares of stock or borrow additional funds. The Company’s inability to obtain additional cash could have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, and its ability to continue in existence. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty

 

The Company intends to raise additional capital, sell licenses to its CTS technology and continue constructing its full scale demonstration facility which, once operational, is expected to generate cash flow in amounts sufficient to cover the Company’s operating expenses and debt service.

 

Through its private offerings, the Company raised $6,809,394 from inception through December 31, 2016 and an additional $102,500 in the three months ended March 31, 2017.

 

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control. Intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. Investments in business entities in which the Company lacks control but has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for using the equity method. The Company’s proportionate share of net income or loss of the entity is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates presented and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include estimates of impairment assessment of identifiable intangible assets and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Estimates are based on past experience and other considerations reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

All highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents.

 

Stock Compensation

 

The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based payments under the relevant authoritative accounting guidance. Share-based payments include any remuneration paid by the Company in shares of the Company’s common stock or financial instruments that grant the recipient the right to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock. For share-based payments to employees, which consist only of awards made under the stock option plan described below, the Company accounts for the payments in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 718, “Stock Compensation” (formerly referred to as SFAS No. 123(R)). Share-based payments to consultants, service providers and other non-employees are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 718, ASC Topic 505, “Equity Payments to Non-Employees” or other applicable authoritative guidance.

 

7
 

 

Stock-based Compensation Valuation Methodology

 

Stock-based compensation resulting from the issuance of common stock is calculated by reference to the valuation of the stock on the date of issuance, the expense being recognized as the compensation is earned. Stock-based compensation expenses related to employee options and warrants granted to non-employees are recognized as the stock options and warrants are earned. The fair value of the stock options or warrants granted is estimated at the grant date, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and the expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the period over which services are to be received or the life of the option or warrant. The grant date fair value of employee share options and similar instruments is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model on the basis of the fair value of the underlying common stock on the measurement date, adjusted for the unique characteristics of those equity instruments, using the assumptions noted in the table below. The fair value of the common stock is determined by the then-prevailing closing market price. Expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the Company’s closing day market price per share. The expected term of options and warrants was based upon the life of the option, and the risk-free rate used was based on the U.S. Treasury Daily Yield Curve Rate.

 

The stock compensation issued for services during the three months ended March 31, 2017, was valued on the date of issuance. The following assumptions were used in calculations of the Black-Scholes option pricing models for warrant-based stock compensation issued in the three months ended March 31, 2017:

 

    01/01/17     02/18/17     03/31/17  
Risk-free interest rate     1.93 %     1.92 %     1.93 %
Expected life     5 years       5 years       5 years  
Expected dividends     0 %     0 %     0 %
Expected volatility     140.36 %     138.54 %     137.11 %
ALLM common stock fair value   $ 0.20     $ 0.16     $ 0.11  

 

Accounting and Reporting of Discontinued Operations

 

As required by the FASB ASC Subtopic 205.20, per ASU 2014-08, Discontinued Operations, a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity, or a business or nonprofit activity can be classified as discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results when any of the following occurs: (i) the criteria in paragraph 205.20.45.1E to be classified as held for sale is met (ii) the component is disposed of by sale, or (iii) the component is disposed of other than by sale in accordance with paragraph 360.10.45.15 (for example, by abandonment or in a distribution to owners in a spinoff). Certain components to be disposed of other than by sale shall continue to be classified as “held and used” until it is disposed of, per the requirements of ASC Subtopic 360.10. Depreciation on these assets ceases upon their classification as “held and used.” The Company adopted ASU No. 2014-08 effective September 1, 2014.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided for on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the assets, generally 5 to 7 years. Expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized; repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.

 

Convertible Instruments

 

The Company evaluates and account for conversion options embedded in convertible instruments in accordance with ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging Activities”.

 

Applicable GAAP requires companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under other GAAP with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.

 

8
 

 

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when we have determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) as follows: The Company records when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their stated date of redemption.

 

Accounting for Derivative Instruments

 

The Company issues debentures where the number of shares into which a debenture can be converted is not fixed. For example, when a debenture converts at a discount to market based on the stock price on the date of conversion. In such instances, the embedded conversion option of the convertible debentures is bifurcated from the host contract and recorded at their fair value. In accounting for derivatives, the Company records a liability representing the estimated present value of the conversion feature considering the historic volatility of the Company’s stock, and a discount representing the imputed interest associated with the beneficial conversion feature. The discount is then amortized over the life of the debenture and the derivative liability is adjusted periodically according to stock price fluctuations. At the time of conversion, any remaining derivative liability is charged to additional paid-in capital. For purposes of determining derivative liability, the Company uses Black-Scholes modeling for computing historic volatility.

 

Common Stock Purchase Warrants and Other Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company classifies as equity any contracts that require physical settlement or net-share settlement or provide it with a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in the Company’s own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement) provided that such contracts are indexed to its own stock as defined in ASC 815-40 (“Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contracts that require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the Company’s control) or give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company assesses the classification of its common stock purchase warrants and other free-standing derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between assets and liabilities is required.

 

Non-controlling interest in consolidated subsidiaries

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Alliance BioEnergy Plus, Inc. and those subsidiaries that the Company has the ability to control either through voting rights or means other than voting rights. For these subsidiaries, the Company records 100% of the revenues, expenses, cash flows, assets and liabilities in its consolidated financial statements. For subsidiaries that the Company controls but hold less than 100% ownership, a non-controlling interest is recorded in the consolidated income statement to reflect the non-controlling interest’s share of the net income (loss), and a non-controlling interest is recorded in the consolidated balance sheet to reflect the non-controlling interest’s share of the net assets of the subsidiary.

 

Investments in non-consolidated affiliates

 

Investments in non-consolidated affiliates are accounted for using the equity method or cost basis depending upon the level of ownership and/or the Company’s ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee. When the equity method is used, investments are recorded at original cost and adjusted periodically to recognize the Company’s proportionate share of the investees’ net income or losses after the date of investment. When net losses from an investment are accounted for under the equity method exceed its carrying amount, the investment balance is reduced to zero and additional losses are not provided for. The Company resumes accounting for the investment under the equity method if the entity subsequently reports net income and the Company’s share of that net income exceeds the share of net losses not recognized during the period the equity method was suspended. Investments are written down only when there is clear evidence that a decline in value that is other than temporary has occurred.

 

The Company’s investment in Carbolosic, LLC is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company monitors its investment for impairment at least annually and make appropriate reductions in the carrying value if it determines that an impairment charge is required based on qualitative and quantitative information.

 

Impairment of Long Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. If events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable, the Company compares the carrying amount of the asset group to future undiscounted net cash flows, excluding interest costs, expected to be generated by the asset group and their ultimate disposition. If the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset group. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell.

Income Taxes

 

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

ASC Topic 740.10.30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740.10.40 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.

 

Profit (Loss) per Common Share:

 

Basic profit (loss) per share amounts have been calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each reporting period. Diluted loss per share has been calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares plus the potentially dilutive effect of securities such as outstanding options and warrants. The computation of potential common shares has been performed using the treasury stock method. The warrants and options are antidilutive for all periods presented. When net loss is reported, diluted and basic net loss per share amounts are the same as the impact of potential common shares is antidilutive.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.

 

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, payables to related parties, and accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

 

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable

 

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

 

The Company used Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the conversion option liability in determining the fair value using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumption inputs:

 

    December 31, 2016     March 31, 2017  
Annual dividend yield     -       -  
Expected life (years)     4.30       4.10  
Risk-free interest rate     1.93 %     1.93 %
Expected volatility     24% - 163%       23% - 159 %

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company recognized a gain of $477,000 on the change in fair value of its derivative liabilities. At March 31, 2017, the Company did not identify any other assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheet at fair value in accordance with ASC 825-10.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that such recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future either will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows when implemented.

Alliance Bioenergy Plus, Inc (the “Company”) is a technology company focused on emerging technologies in the renewable energy, biofuels and new technologies sectors. In December 2013, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, AMG Renewables, LLC (“AMG Renewables”), acquired the controlling interest (51%) in AMG Energy Group, LLC (“AMG Energy”) and the remaining 49% was then acquired in 2016. AMG Energy Group, owns a fifty percent (50%) interest of Carbolosic, LLC (“Carbolosic”), which holds an exclusive worldwide license to the University of Central Florida’s patented technology (U.S. Patent 8,062,428) known as “CTS™”. The CTS technology is a mechanical/chemical, dry process for converting cellulose material into sugar for use in the biofuels industry as well as other fine chemical manufacturing. The Company’s goal in acquiring the interest in AMG Energy is to develop the CTS technology to a commercial scale and then seek to license the technology to prospective licensees.

 

Plan of Operation

 

The Company is focused on the development and commercialization of the licensed technology it controls through its affiliate Carbolosic, LLC. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, AMG Energy, the Company owns Ek Laboratories, Inc. and a 50% interest in Carbolosic (which includes certain licensing rights in North America and Africa). The Company has a strategy that includes mergers and acquisitions of existing businesses in the renewable energy and sustainable products industries as well as sublicensing its patented technologies that it controls through a master license with the University of Central Florida under affiliate Carbolosic and start-up activities which are focused on development of an increasing revenue stream, secure market share and enhancement of shareholder value.

AMG ENERGY GROUP, LLC

 

AMG Energy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was created for the purpose of holding, managing and developing the Company’s renewable energy technology enterprises. These interests comprise ownership of 100% of EK Laboratories, Inc., a Florida corporation (“EK”) formerly known as Central Florida Institute of Science and Technology, Inc. and a fifty percent (50%) interest in Carbolosic, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Carbolosic”), which holds an exclusive worldwide license to the University of Central Florida’s patented technology (U.S. Patent 8,062,428) known as “CTS™”. The CTS technology is a mechanical/chemical, dry process for converting cellulose material into sugar for use in the biofuels industry as well as other fine chemical manufacturing. The Company’s goal is to develop this CTS technology to a commercial scale and then seek to acquire existing bioenergy and ethanol plants to install the CTS technology as well as license the technology to prospective licensees. EK was formed to serve as a pilot plant and research facility to further develop the CTS process, its uses, and develop new technologies.

 

The Company believes that its management and consultants have significant experience in the bio-fuels, renewable energy and chemical manufacturing industries. As of this date, the Company has not generated any revenues from its renewable energy business.

 

Capital Formation

 

In October 2016, the Company commenced a new offering of units valued at $0.20 per share. Each unit consist of one (1) share of common stock and one (1) five-year Series E warrant convertible to one (1) common share at an exercise price of $0.45. From January 1, 2017 through the date of filing and at December 31, 2016, the Company has sold 312,500 and 2,200,050 units for aggregate proceeds of $132,500 and $390,010 respectively. The offering is ongoing.

 

From January 1, 2017 through the date of filing, the Company issued an aggregate of 848,746 shares of its common stock for services valued at $156,345.

 

From January 1, 2017 through the date of filing, the Company issued an aggregate of 500,000 warrants for services. Using a Black-Scholes asset pricing model, these warrants were valued at $68,371. These warrant agreements have terms of five years (5) with exercise prices ranging from thirty-five cents ($0.35) to two dollars ($2.00) per share.

 

From January 1, 2017 through the date of filing, the Company issued options to its independent directors to purchase an aggregate of 313,398 shares of common stock for a period of five (5) years at average exercise price of $0.13. Using a Black-Scholes asset pricing model, these agreements were valued at $30,000. In addition, the Company rescinded 500,000 shares of common stock issued to a former employee under the Employee, Director Plan.

 

From January 1, 2017 through the date of filing, the Company awarded an employee of the Company with an aggregate of 1,500,000 options under its Employee, Director Plan. 500,000 options are fully vested and the remaining 1,000,000 options vest over the next two years. These option agreements have a term of five years (5) and an exercise price of thirteen cents ($0.13) per share. Using a Black-Scholes asset pricing model, these options were valued at $47,862.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has incurred losses since inception, has a working capital deficiency, and may be unable to raise further equity. At March 31, 2017 the Company had a working capital deficiency of $3,153,199 and had incurred accumulated losses of $26,334,039, of which approximately $18,178,308 is non-cash, since its inception. The Company expects to incur significant additional losses in connection with its continued start-up activities. As a result, the report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm on the Company’s financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2016 contains an emphasis of matter paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern based upon recurring operating losses and its need to obtain additional financing to sustain operations. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities when they become due and to generate sufficient revenues from its operations to pay its operating expenses. Furthermore, these financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classifications of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

 

Through its private offerings, the Company raised $3,079,004 for the year ended December 31, 2016 and an additional $102,500 in the three months ended March 31, 2017 and a total of $132,500 from January 1, 2017 through the date of filing.

 

Results of Operations

 

Comparison of the period ended March 31, 2017 to March 31, 2016

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company’s general and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $467,439 to $814,184 from $1,281,623 in the three months ended March 31, 2016. This decrease is primarily the result of a $336,268 decrease in professional fees, $23,321 decrease in marketing fees and a $39,908 decrease in payroll. Of the $814,184 general and administrative expense, approximately 39% or $321,361 is non-cash equity compensation.

 

17
 

 

Interest expense decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2017 by approximately $303,746 to $125,239 from $428,985 during the three months ended March 31, 2016. The decrease was the result of the early repayment of 7 convertible notes along with prepayment interest during the three months ended March 31, 2016 and no repayments in the three months ending March 31, 2017.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company’s equity loss in its unconsolidated affiliates increased $7,771 to $49,101 from $41,330 during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

 

The Company’s discontinued operations had no activity during the three months ended March 31, 2017, compared to a $1,160,411 gain incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2016 which was the result of the Company’s decision to sell its interest in Carbolosic Plant 1.

 

Research and development (R&D) expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2017 were $5,749 as opposed to $4,234 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in R&D expenses is the result of increased sampling and testing of various feedstocks for the Company’s proposed Vero Beach facility as well as potential third party licensees.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity

 

As of March 31, 2017 the Company had $2,414 in cash and total stockholders’ equity was $5,169,602. Total debt from continuing operations, including advances, accounts payable and other notes payable at March 31, 2017, together with interest payable thereon, was $3,753,353 an increase of $112,361 from $3,640,992 at December 31, 2016. This increase is attributable to the addition of approximately $458,500 in convertible debt.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company’s continuing operating activities used $464,607 in cash. This use can be attributed to payroll and professional and legal fees.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2017 the Company’s investing activities used $102,159 in cash, which $94,159 was advanced to Carbolosic, LLC for payment of the minimum annual royalty and patent legal fees.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company generated $519,500 through its financing activities. This can primarily be attributed to the addition of an aggregate net amount of $417,000 in convertible debt and simultaneously raising $102,500 through its ongoing offerings.

 

Capital Resources

 

At this time, the Company has limited liquidity and capital resources. To continue funding the Company’s operations, the company will need to generate revenue and/or will require additional funding for ongoing operations and to finance such projects it may identify. As of the date of filing, the Company has raised $117,500 in addition to $6,809,394 raised through December 31, 2016 for a total of $6,926,894 through its private placement offerings. However, there is no guarantee that the company will be able to raise any additional capital on terms acceptable to the Company.

 

The inability to obtain this funding either in the near term and/or longer term will materially affect the ability of the Company to implement its business plan of operations and jeopardize the viability of the Company. In that case, the Company may need to reevaluate and revise its operations.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information set forth in Regulation S-X and include the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries over which the Company exercises control. Intercompany transactions and balances were eliminated in consolidation. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. 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 three months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or any other period. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto for the period ended December 31, 2016.

 

18
 

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. Investments in business entities in which the Company lacks control but has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies are accounted for using the equity method. The Company’s proportionate share of net income or loss of the entity is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates presented and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include estimates of impairment assessment of identifiable intangible assets and valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Estimates are based on past experience and other considerations reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Stock Compensation

 

The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based payments under the relevant authoritative accounting guidance. Share-based payments include any remuneration paid by the Company in shares of the Company’s common stock or financial instruments that grant the recipient the right to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock. For share-based payments to employees, which consist only of awards made under the stock option plan described below, the Company accounts for the payments in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 718, “Stock Compensation” (formerly referred to as SFAS No. 123(R)). Share-based payments to consultants, service providers and other non-employees are accounted for under in accordance with ASC Topic 718, ASC Topic 505, “Equity Payments to Non-Employees” or other applicable authoritative guidance

 

Convertible Instruments

 

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible instruments in accordance with ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging Activities”.

 

Applicable GAAP requires companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under other GAAP with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.

 

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when we have determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) as follows: The Company records when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their stated date of redemption.

 

Accounting for Derivative Instruments

 

The Company issues debentures where the number of shares into which a debenture can be converted is not fixed. For example, when a debenture converts at a discount to market based on the stock price on the date of conversion. In such instances, the embedded conversion option of the convertible debentures is bifurcated from the host contract and recorded at their fair value. In accounting for derivatives, the Company records a liability representing the estimated present value of the conversion feature considering the historic volatility of the Company’s stock, and a discount representing the imputed interest associated with the beneficial conversion feature. The discount is then amortized over the life of the debenture and the derivative liability is adjusted periodically according to stock price fluctuations. At the time of conversion, any remaining derivative liability is charged to additional paid-in capital. For purposes of determining derivative liability, the Company uses Black-Scholes modeling for computing historic volatility.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that such recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future either will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows when implemented.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation. The amendments in this Update remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the Accounting Standards Codification, thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from GAAP. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer in a development stage that in prior years it had been in the development stage.

 

The amendments also clarify that the guidance in Topic 275, Risks and Uncertainties, is applicable to entities that have not commenced planned principal operations. Finally, the amendments remove paragraph 810-10-15-16. Paragraph 810-10-15-16 states that a development stage entity does not meet the condition in paragraph 810-10-15-14(a) to be a variable interest entity if (1) the entity can demonstrate that the equity invested in the legal entity is sufficient to permit it to finance the activities that it is currently engaged in and (2) the entity’s governing documents and contractual arrangements allow additional equity investments. The amendments in this Update also eliminate an exception provided to development stage entities in Topic 810, Consolidation, for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity on the basis of the amount of investment equity that is at risk. The amendments to eliminate that exception simplify GAAP by reducing avoidable complexity in existing accounting literature and improve the relevance of information provided to financial statement users by requiring the application of the same consolidation guidance by all reporting entities. The elimination of the exception may change the consolidation analysis, consolidation decision, and disclosure requirements for a reporting entity that has an interest in an entity in the development stage. The amendments related to the elimination of inception-to-date information and the other remaining disclosure requirements of Topic 915 should be applied retrospectively except for the clarification to Topic 275, which shall be applied prospectively. For public business entities, those amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods therein. Early application of each of the amendments is permitted for any annual reporting period or interim period for which the entity’s financial statements have not yet been issued (public business entities) or made available for issuance (other entities). Upon adoption, entities will no longer present or disclose any information required by Topic 915. The Company adopted ASU No. 2014-10 effective July 31, 2014.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

 

Seasonality

 

The Company’s operating results are not affected by seasonality.

 

Inflation

 

The Company’s business and operating results are not affected in any material way by inflation.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide this information.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company is required to maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its chief executive officer (also its principal executive officer) and its chief financial officer (also its principal financial and accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), the Company’s management, including the Company’s President (“President”), the Company’s principal executive officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer), have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation the Company’s CEO, President and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2017 to a reasonable assurance level to enable the Company to record, process, summarize and report information required under the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules in a timely fashion. This conclusion resulted from the lack of separation of duties within the Company.

 

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

  Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
     
  Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
     
  Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

 

As of March 31, 2017, management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation, the Company concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of its internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected its internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

 

21
 

 

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that the Company’s management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board was (a) the lack of a functioning audit committee, (b) there are insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements , (c) there is a lack of expertise with US generally accepted accounting principles and SEC rules and regulations for review of critical accounting areas and disclosures and material non-standard transactions and (d) lack of effective oversight during the financial close process resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by the Company’s management in connection with the review of its financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

 

Management believes that the material weakness set forth above did not have an effect on its financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee coupled with not having individuals on staff or retainer with a thorough knowledge of US GAAP and SEC rules and regulations and lack of effective oversight on the financial close process results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in its financial statements in future periods.

 

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by its registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this quarterly report.

 

Remediation Plan

 

Management is sensitive to the issues presented and intends to take appropriate action when the Company’s financial resources permit. Management intends to hire additional support staff when its financial resources permit and it will continue to review and make necessary changes to the overall design of its internal control environment..

 

(c) Reclassification of prior Period Financial Statements

 

Certain items previously reported have been reclassified to conform with the current period’s presentation.

 

(d) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal period to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
