EXOUSIA ADVANCED MATERIALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies
Presentation of Interim Information
Basis of Presentation
On January 13, 2010 the Company acquired 100% of the common stock of Evergreen Global Investments Ltd by issuing 10,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of the Company. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete 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 nine months ended September 30, 2010, ar e not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010. The balance sheet at December 31, 2009, has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Principles of Consolidation
The accounts of all of our wholly-owned subsidiaries are included in the consolidation of these financial statements from the date of acquisition. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Company Information
Historically Exousia was engaged in the manufacture and sale of completion fluids in the United States and China. In addition it was developing and attempting to commercialize a technology known as Rubber Plastic Alloy (RPA). On January 13, 2010 the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Evergreen Global Investments. Since the acquisition, the Company has focused on the sale of green energy fuels including home heating fuel and biodiesel. The completion fluids business has been discontinued while the company focuses on developing its interest in green energy fuels. As a result of this acquisition, the Company became the owner of certain assets and interests in other companies as further described in this Form 10-Q. Included in the acquisition was
· | 5.8 acres, two office buildings, fuel loading rack, and fuel tanks with a storage capacity of 3,150,000 gallons (75,000 barrels) (hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Rockaway Terminal”) |
· | 82% of the outstanding common stock of Price Energy |
· | 290.5 shares (82%) of the outstanding common stock of Price Energy |
· | Certain Fuel Contracts |
Revenue Recognition
The Company's revenue recognition policy is consistent with the criteria set forth in Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 104, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," for determining when revenue is realized or realizable and earned. In accordance with the requirements of SAB 104, the Company recognizes revenue when (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) delivery has occurred, (3) the seller's price is fixed or determinable, and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. During 2010, the Company recognized sales of home heating fuel through it Price Energy platform. As described further herein Price Energy is an industry leading e-commerce based business selling energy products and services to its residential and commercial customers. To date its sales have been derived solely from home heating fuel. In addition it rec ognized rental income derived from its ownership of the Rockaway Terminal in New Jersey.
Accounts Receivable
Price Energy is an e-commerce business and largely works on a cash basis. The Company’s other business lines have 30 day net terms. In the second quarter the Company evaluated the remaining AR from 2009 and determined that it would be appropriate to record an allowance for the full amount.
-7-
During the first quarter, 2010 the Company absorbed certain obligations of Price Energy. This resulted in a total amount due to Exousia of $2,274,816. As detailed further herein, the Company and Able agreed to a return of shares issued in the original acquisition to Able. The Company has received those shares and they have been placed in Treasury Stock. An adjustment was made in the second quarter 2010 to the stock based consideration paid to the previous owners of Price Energy. The following is a recap of the obligations paid and the stock based adjustment made in the second and third quarters. The agreement with the previous owners was based upon a price per share of Exousia stock based upon the highest price of the Exousia stock for the period April 4, 2010 to July 1, 2010 not to exceed $0.234. As of July 1, 2010, the highest price of Exousia’s common stock during this period was $0.13 per share. The previous owners converted their Preferred Shares into Common Shares of the Company and thus the adjustment is based on Common Shares. The company has received 31,169,354 shares, 11,169,354 were received in the second quarter 2010 and the remaining 20,000,000 were received in the third quarter. Based on the price per share at that time the Accounts Receivable was reduced by $1,451,990 in the second quarter. The remaining balance of the accounts receivable, $822,826, was recorded in the second quarter as a Subscription Receivable. The Company received 20,000,000 shares in the third quarter as final payment on the said obligations. Those shares were recorded at the fair market value of the Company’s stock on the date received, $0.005 per common share or $100,000. The remaining balance of $722,823 was written off as bad debt in the third quarter.
In the second quarter 2010, the company established an allowance for doubtful accounts of $25,662 related to the age of the accounts still uncollected from 2009. That allowance remained in the third quarter and no additional accounts receivable were recorded during that quarter.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives using the straight line method. Useful lives range from 5 to 60 years.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for intangible assets with indefinite lives in accordance with FASB guidelines, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for acquired goodwill and other intangible assets. During the period, the Company recorded Goodwill and a value associated with the Trade Name “PriceEnergy.com”. Under the provisions of FASB guidelines, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are required to be tested for impairment annually, in lieu of being amortized, using a fair value approach at the reporting unit level. Furthermore, testing for impairment is required on an interim basis if an event or circumstance indicates that it is more likely than not an impairment loss has been incurred. An impairment loss shall be recognized to the extent that the carrying amount of goodwill or any indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its implied fair value. Impairment losses shall be recognized in operating results.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Effective June 30, 2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard issued by the FASB related to the disclosure requirements of the fair value of the financial instruments. This standard expands the disclosure requirements of fair value (including the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair value) of certain financial instruments to interim period financial statements that were previously only required to be disclosed in financial statements for annual periods. In accordance with this standard, the disclosure requirements have been applied on a prospective basis and did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (the "Codification") as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by non-governmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The introduction of the Codification does not change GAAP and other than the manner in which new accounting guidance is referenced, the adoption of these changes had no impact on the our consolidated financial statements.
-8-
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In August 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting standards related to the measurement of liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis. This standard clarifies how a company should measure the fair value of liabilities and that restrictions preventing the transfer of a liability should not be considered as a factor in the measurement of liabilities within the scope of this standard. This standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2010. The Company does not expect the impact of its adoption to be material to its financial statements.
In October 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting standards related to the accounting for revenue in arrangements with multiple deliverables including how the arrangement consideration is allocated among delivered and undelivered items of the arrangement. Among the amendments, this standard eliminated the use of the residual method for allocating arrangement considerations and requires an entity to allocate the overall consideration to each deliverable based on an estimated selling price of each individual deliverable in the arrangement in the absence of having vendor-specific objective evidence or other third party evidence of fair value of the undelivered items. This standard also provides further guidance on how to determine a separate unit of accounting in a multiple-deliverable revenue arrangement and expands the dis closure requirements about the judgments made in applying the estimated selling price method and how those judgments affect the timing or amount of revenue recognition. This standard, for which the Company is currently assessing the impact, will become effective for the Company on January 1, 2011.
In October 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to the accounting standards related to certain revenue arrangements that include software elements. This standard clarifies the existing accounting guidance such that tangible products that contain both software and non-software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality, shall be excluded from the scope of the software revenue recognition accounting standards. Accordingly, sales of these products may fall within the scope of other revenue recognition standards or may now be within the scope of this standard and may require an allocation of the arrangement consideration for each element of the arrangement. This standard, for which the Company is currently assessing the impact, will become effective for the Company on January 1, 2011.
Note 2 - Notes Payable
On July 28, 2009 the Company received $1,000,000 in exchange for a Convertible Note Payable to PTV Investments and Fairbanks Investments (the “Lenders”). The Note was secured by the Company’s Intellectual Properties and Patents. The note provided for additional borrowing based upon agreement with the Lenders predicated upon certain events and agreement with the Lenders. At September 30, 2010 no additional amounts had been borrowed. The terms of the Note provide for minimum monthly payments at 12% per annum beginning on August 15, 2009. In October 2009, November 2009 and December 2009, the Company was unable to meet the minimum monthly payments and entered into a forbearance agreement with the Lenders. As a result of the acquisition with Evergreen, the Lenders have agreed to a delay in the monthly payments required in 2010 in exchange for 16,039,474 warrants to purchase common stock of the company at $0.001 per share. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes pricing model and expensed immediately. At September 30, 2010 one half of the outstanding principal of this note, $500,000, was converted into common stock as part of the company’s debt restructuring agreement. The terms for the remaining principal provide for an annual interest rate of 8%, payable monthly.

Note 8 – Capital Lease
During the third quarter, the Company exchanged its 30% interest in the Biodiesel Facility for a Capital Lease in that facility. Previously it had accounted for this asset as an Equity Investment acquired during the merger with Evergreen Energy. Evergreen owed 30% of the South Carolina Production Facility which had previously merged with Genesis Biodiesel, a biodiesel production facility. The value above based on 30% of net assets on date of acquisition. Total net assets were valued at $19,071,167 by an independent appraiser on 8/3/09. On May 26, the South Carolina Production Facility and Genesis Biodiesel entered into an agreement effectively ending Evergreen's interest in the Biodiesel Production Facility. Simultaneously on May 26, 2010 Evergreen entered into a lease agreement with Genesis Biodiesel to lease the biodiesel production facility. The lease increases the Company’s share of net profits from 30% to 51%. The lease is recorded as a Capital Lease as its term is greater than 75% of the estimated useful life of the facility. As a result the Company recorded a Lease Obligation of $7,578,821 based on the present value of the lease payments at the rate implicit in the lease. The term of the Lease is 20 years with monthly payments of $100,000. In addition to the fixed rent, the Company shall also pay 49% of net income before taxes generated by use of the facility. This due within 60 days of each accounting period (qtr).The Lease Obligation was recorded using a 15% interest rate.
Loan maturities for each of the five years following September 30, 2010, are as follows:
Note 9 – Other Assets
The Company engaged an independent appraiser to value the components of the acquisition. The Company recognized based upon this independent appraisal a value related to the trade name “PriceEnergy.com” an asset of $844,000. The company is amortizing this asset over 15 years based on the estimated economic life of the trade name. During the third quarter the Company recorded amortization expense of $14,067. The Company has also recorded an option to purchase the biodiesel facility that it currently leases as discussed in note 8. The value of this option is $6,000,000 as of September 30, 2010 which can be applied towards the purchase price of the facility.
Note 10 – Segment Reporting
The Company does not have material segments. Its operations are limited to sales of home heating oil.
Note 11– Inventory
In 2010, the Company wrote off all inventories as obsolete.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation
During the third quarter the Company made significant strides towards restoring solvency and establishing a balance sheet capable of sustaining operations and attracting new investment. The Company reported a total loss of $3,173,280 in the third quarter 2010 bringing the Y-T-D loss to $5,227,250. In the Third Quarter 2010, the Company reached agreements with its secured note holders. Under the terms of the agreements the Company and the note holders agreed to the following. First the note holders agreed to forgive all accrued interest previously owed under the notes. The Company recorded a reduction in interest previously expensed of $293,508 as a result of the forgiveness of the interest. In addition the note holders agreed to convert one-half of the balance of their notes into Common Stock of the Company. Under the terms of this con version, 141,332,387 shares will be issued to the note holders in the fourth quarter.
Also during the Third Quarter 2010, the Company began to raise funds for operations, primarily of Price Energy. The Company is planning to sell equity interest in Price Energy under the following plan. The plan is to sell up to 50% equity interest in Price Energy in units. The first 128 tranche of units is priced at $4,684 per unit and is expected to raise $600,000. The second 270 tranche of units is priced at $7,064 per unit and is expected to raise $1.9 million. The Company anticipates raising $2.5 million under this plan. Proceeds of this fundraising will be applied first towards repayment of debt owed directly by Price Energy (approximately $2.0 million). The balance will be used for funding operations of Price Energy. Price Energy Equity Fund, an independent funding group, has agreed to fund the entire amount. It has agreed to ass ume the note payable to Iroquois and the accounts payable to the Price Energy Dealers and to its software vendor. In exchange the Company has agreed to issue 104,112,000 shares of its common stock. This transaction will take place in the fourth quarter
Also during the Third Quarter 2010, the Company announced a plan to transfer its equity interest the property known as the Rockaway Facility. The facility has a mortgage of $2.9 million which will be assumed by Rockaway Terminal LLC under the planned arrangement.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2010, total assets were $29,300,702 consisting primarily of the assets of Evergreen. Current liabilities totaled $7,862,132. Accounts Payable and accrued expenses were $4,185,276. As of December 31, 2009, total assets were $227,553 and current liabilities were $3,352,094. As a result of the conversion of the notes payable, the remaining notes, $2,119,986 are Long-Term Debt as is the capital lease obligation of $7,578,821. Our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $192,500 and $110,392 respectively. The Company reported a loss for the three months ended September 30, 2010 of $3,173,280 versus a loss of $1,172,022 for the three months ended September 30, 2009. The increase was primarily due to non-cash charges associated with warrants and stock issued for services and to the expensing of all stock options in the Company’s Stock Option Plan..
Our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 were $4,810,957 and $314,486, respectively. The Company reported a loss for the nine Months Ended September 30, 2010 of $5,227,250 versus a loss of $4,511,600 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

The home heating oil business is seasonal. In the third quarter Revenues and. Operating expenses thus were virtually nil as a result of no cost of sales and no administrative expenses. The Company anticipates receipt of the necessary funding as it enters the cold season and is prepared to activate its web site, address the amounts owed to its dealers and operate as it has done in prior years.
Our financial statements are prepared using principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. From January 13, 2010 with the acquisition completed, the Company’s operations have provided positive earnings and cash flow. Prior to the acquisition, the Company had significantly reduced overhead and operating costs. As a result of the merger with Evergreen and acquisition of assets and the positive cash flow being generated by the Company, the Company expects to be able to fund current operations and is evaluating options for recapitalization of its existing debt.
Price Energy
Price Energy represented the primary contributor of Revenue and Cash Flow for the Company for the Three and Six Months ended September 30, 2010. Price Energy is an industry leading e-commerce based business selling energy products and services to its residential and commercial customers. Through its proprietary internet platform, sales of energy through Price Energy were $4,405,957 for the Nine Months ended September 30, 2010. Sales through Price Energy through the second quarter were primarily of home heating oil. However management of Price Energy is expanding the scope and breadth of its offerings through an aggressive marketing program to include other energy related products throughout the United States.
Rental and Throughput Revenues
Evergreen’s subsidiary owns the company that owns certain real estate commonly known as the Rockaway Oil Terminal located in Rockaway, New Jersey consisting of 5.8 acres, two office buildings, fuel loading rack, and fuel tanks with a storage capacity of 3,150,000 gallons (75,000 barrels). The Rockaway Terminal was acquired by Evergreen from Able Energy, Inc. on December 1, 2009. At that time, Able entered into a 20-year triple net lease with Evergreen for the use of the Rockaway Terminal (the “Lease”). An addendum to the Lease was executed whereby Evergreen shall receive throughput and delivery fees in addition to its rent under the Lease.
Biodiesel Facility
Evergreen owns an interest in a South Carolina Biodiesel Facility (“Biodiesel Facility”). The Biodiesel Facility is a producer of soybean oil based biodiesel, its production by-product glycerin, and has a 36-million gallon per year production capacity for biodiesel. In 2010 the US House of Representatives passed an incentive package providing for a $1.00 per gallon credit to provide incentives to produce renewable energy resources such as biodiesel. In early 2010, the Senate passed a similar piece of legislation. The bill ultimately was stripped from the consolidated bill and did not pass. The bill has been reintroduced in both houses and may be passed before the end of the year. Management has made a decision to reopen the plant in the third quarter and expects to begin operations in 2010.
Fuel Contract
In addition to the interest in the Biodiesel Facility, Evergreen owns a Fuel Contract. The Fuel Contract acquired is a five year 100,000,000 gallon per year agreement to provide diesel fuel to Green Energy Cooperative. For the period January 1, 2010 to September 30, 2010, there were no sales under this contract pending reconciliation of legislation passed in December 2010 by the US House of Representatives and in September 2010 by the US Senate whereby the incentive package providing for a $1.00 per gallon credit to provide incentives to produce renewable energy resources such as biodiesel is renewed. This legislation was stripped from a bill in Congress during the second quarter and did not pass as anticipated. A similar bill has been introduced in the third quarter.

Industrial Coatings – The Company shut down its operating plant in the United States and curtailed its staff in China. Management plans to evaluate Industrial Coating opportunities on a case by case basis. In the United States it will toll out any production needs until it is able to obtain enough sales to warrant re-opening a manufacturing facility. In China, management has reduced staff and has maintained sales contacts with certain customers, but has not had the working capital necessary to pursue certain opportunities. The Company anticipates that it will enter into sales contracts in the latter part of 2010.
RPA/Plastics Division - The Company shut down operations in this Division in the First Quarter of 2010.
Exousia has made great strides in its efforts to transform its product offerings from Industrial Coatings and Plastics to a broad provider of green energy fuel products.

Item 4T– Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of September 30, 2010, the Company's management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's system of disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act, Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, as of the date of their evaluation, for the purposes of recording, processing, summarizing and timely reporting material information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
As of September 30, 2010, we did not maintain effective controls over financial statement disclosure. Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that all disclosures required were originally addressed in our financial statements. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness. |
1. | As of September 30, 2010, effective controls over the control environment were not maintained. Specifically, a formally adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that governs to the Company’s employees, officers and directors was not in place. Additionally, management has not developed and effectively communicated to its employees its accounting policies and procedures. This has resulted in inconsistent practices. Further, the Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d) (5) (ii) of Regulation S-X. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material w eakness. | |
2. | As of September 30, 2010, effective controls over financial statement disclosure were not maintained. Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that all disclosures required were originally addressed in our financial statements. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness. |
3. | As of September 30, 2010, effective controls over equity transactions were not maintained. Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that equity transactions were properly reflected. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness. |
4. | The Company has retained outside securities counsel to assist management in developing procedures and guidelines to rectify the above deficiencies and develop safeguards to prevent such deficiencies to reoccur in the future. The Company with the assistance of its outside securities counsel is also developing procedures to insure that disclosure controls are in effect to provide for timely reporting and disclosure of material information and events. |

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company anticipates that when the procedures referred to above are in place, that it will be in compliance with all disclosure requirements of the Exchange Act and its rules and regulations.
