PART III - NARRATIVE
THE QUARTERLY REPORT COULD NOT BE COMPLETED WITHIN THE PRESCRIBED TIME PERIOD BECAUSE THE REGISTRANT WAS UNABLE, WITHOUT UNDUE HARDSHIP AND EXPENSE, TO OBTAIN CERTAIN NECESSARY INFORMATION INDEPENDENTLY OR FROM THIRD PARTIES TO PERMIT THE COMPANY TO PREPARE THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IN A TIMELY MANNER.
Vista International Technologies, Inc. was unable to complete and file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2011 within the prescribed time period because of delays in obtaining, compiling and reviewing business and financial data necessary to complete the Company’s financial statements for the period ending September 30, 2011 and the related management’s discussion and analysis.

| (2) | Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If answer is no, identify report(s). x Yes o No |
| (3) | Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof? x Yes o No |
If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
Explanation of Anticipated Change
The Company anticipates that its third quarter 2011 gross margin from its tire fuel processing operations decreased approx. $92,000 and the loss from these operations increased approx. $32,000 as compared to the corresponding 2010 quarter. These results are due primarily to higher transportation and landfill costs necessary to reduce our tire inventory, offset by a decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses. However, the final adjustments needed to complete the Company’s third quarter financial statements have not been completed, and accordingly, the estimated loss for the three months ended September 30, 2011 is subject to change.
