NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 1 - NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Power of the Dream Ventures, Inc., f/k/a “Tia V, Inc.” (“PDV” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on August 17, 2006, with the objective to acquire, or merge with, an operating business.
Reverse merger
PDV entered into and consummated a Securities Exchange Agreement (“Exchange Agreement”) on April 10, 2007. Under the terms of the Exchange Agreement, PDV acquired all the outstanding equity interests of Vidatech, Kft. (also known as Vidatech Technological Research and Development LLC) a limited liability company formed under the laws of the Republic of Hungary, (“Vidatech”) in exchange for 33,300,000 shares of PDV’s common stock, and Vidatech thereby became a wholly-owned Hungarian subsidiary of PDV. PDV is governed by the law of the State of Delaware, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Vidatech, is governed by the law of the Republic of Hungary. PDV and Vidatech are herein collectively referred to as the “Company.”
Following the acquisition the former stockholders of Vidatech owned a majority of the issued and outstanding common stock of PDV and the management of Vidatech controlled the Board of Directors of PDV and its wholly-owned Hungarian subsidiary Vidatech. Therefore the acquisition has been accounted for as a reverse merger (the “Reverse Merger”) with Vidatech as the accounting acquirer of PDV. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect the historical results of Vidatech, and the condensed consolidated results of operations of PDV subsequent to the acquisition date. In connection with the Exchange Agreement, PDV adopted the fiscal year end of Vidatech as December 31.
All reference to shares and per share amounts in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the aforementioned shares exchange.
Business
The Company is engaged in the acquisition, development, licensing and commercialization of and the investment in, directly or through business acquisitions, technologies developed in Hungary. In furtherance of its business, the Company provides research and development services to the companies, inventors from whom it acquires technologies or participation interests in technologies. A goal of the Company is to support research and development activities and to sell the products of inventions to the technological market
From inception through September 30, 2008, the Company primarily focused on raising of capital.

FireSAFE
On August 20, the Company licensed its FireSAFE technology to a group of Hungarian investors for a license acquisition fee of HUF 20,000,000 (approximately $120,000), where the revenue will be recognized in October. A new company called FireLESS Ltd. was established and given commercialization license. The Company received 30% equity in FireLESS Ltd.
The new company will focus on acquiring the appropriate licenses and certificates to internationally market FireSAFE and will work with local and international fire agencies to test and establish usability baselines for FireSAFE. It is anticipated that the FireLESS Ltd. will start the international roll-out of FireSAFE in the first half of 2009.
To further these goals on October 20, 2008 The Company filed a PCT patent application to protect FireSAFE internationally.
FireSAFE is an environmentally friendly, biodegradable liquid designed to prevent, and if necessary extinguish natural fires that are exceedingly hard, or impossible to contain with water or other fire-fighting solutions. This category includes forest, bush and other natural fires. FireSAFE reaches the heart of the fire, coating all surfaces with a crystalline layer that hardens when exposed to heat. The layer thus formed is capable of withstanding heat as high as 1,100 degrees centigrade, enough to stop the most fearsome forest fires. Following use (containment of the fire) the biodegradable active ingredient will decompose in approximately four months. FireSAFE can also be used as a preventive solution, both in the wild and in treating lumber. During fire season those areas that are the most likely to be burnt can be sprayed with the solution as a preventive measure. Lumber used in construction can also be treated with FireSAFE to increase its fire resistance factor. FireSAFE can be manufactured anywhere on the planet with ease as all its ingredients are widely and cheaply available.

The Company filed the details of this transaction on Form 8-K with the Commission on October 14, 2008.
As of September 30, 2008, the Company has only realized limited revenues from the TothTelescope project and has not realized any revenues from the other inventions.
As a result, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on a development stage basis.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary to make the financial statements not misleading as of and for the period ended September 30, 2008 and for the period from April 26, 2006 (date of inception) to September 30, 2008. Operating results for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008.
Going Concern and Management’s Plan
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate the continuation of the Company as a going concern and assume realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses from operations since inception. Management anticipates incurring additional losses in 2008. Further, the Company may incur additional losses thereafter, depending on its ability to generate revenues from the licensing or sale of its technologies and products, or to enter into any or a sufficient number of joint ventures. The Company has minimal revenue to date. There is no assurance that the Company can successfully commercialize any of its technologies and products and realize any revenues therefrom. The Company’s technologies and products have never been utilized on a large-scale commercial basis and there is no assurance that any of its technologies or products will receive market acceptance. There is no assurance that the Company can continue to identify and acquire new technologies.

NOTE 1 - NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Since inception through September 30, 2008, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $5,131,734 and net cash used in operations of $926,302. However, management of the Company believes that the recent funding from the private placement of the Company’s common shares (See Note 9) will allow them to continue operations and execute its business plan.
Management believes the Company can raise adequate capital to keep the Company functioning through September 30, 2009. However, no assurance can be given that the Company can obtain additional working capital, or if obtained, that such funding will not cause substantial dilution to shareholders of the Company. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds, it may be forced to change or delay its contemplated marketing and business plan.
Being a development stage company, the Company is subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a new enterprise and the marketing and manufacturing of a new product, many of these risks are beyond the control of the Company. All of the factors discussed above raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of recorded asset amounts that might be necessary as a result of the above uncertainty.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant accounting policies adopted in preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements are set out below.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PDV and its wholly-owned Hungarian subsidiary, Vidatech. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect amounts reported herein. Management believes that such estimates, judgments and assumptions are reasonable and appropriate. However, due to the inherent uncertainty involved, actual results may differ from those based upon management’s judgments, estimates and assumptions. Critical accounting policies requiring the use of estimates are depreciation and amortization and share-based payments

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenue Recognition:
Sales are recognized when there is evidence of a sales agreement, the delivery of the goods or services has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured, generally upon shipment of product to customers and transfer of title under standard commercial terms. Sales are measured based on the net amount billed to a customer. Generally there are no formal customer acceptance requirements or further obligations. Customers do not have a general right of return on products shipped therefore no provisions are made for return.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:
Accounts receivable are stated at current value, which approximates fair value. The Company does not require collateral for accounts receivable. Accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance for amounts that may be uncollectible in the future. This estimated allowance is determined by considering factors such as length of time accounts are past due, historical experience of write offs, and customers’ financial condition.
Inventories:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined based on weighted average cost or market. Inventories are reduced by an allowance for excess and obsolete inventories based on management’s review of on-hand inventories compared to historical and estimated future sales and usage.
Fixed assets:
Fixed assets are stated at cost or fair value for impaired assets. Depreciation and amortization is computed principally by the straight-line method. Asset amortization charges are recorded for long lived assets. In the related periods, no asset impairment charges were accounted for.
Depreciation is recorded commencing the date the assets are placed in service and is calculated using the straight line basis over their estimated useful lives.
The estimated useful lives of the various classes of long-lived assets are approximately 3-7 years.
Pensions and Other Post-retirement Employee benefits:
In Hungary, pensions are guaranteed and paid by the government or by pension funds, therefore no pensions and other post-retirement employee benefit costs or liabilities are to be calculated and accounted by the Company.
Product warranty:
The Company accrues for warranty obligations for products sold based on management estimates, with support from sales, quality and legal functions, of the amount that eventually will be required to settle such obligations. At September 30, 2008, the Company had no warranty obligations in connection with the products sold.

Advertising costs:
Advertising and sales promotion expenses are expensed as incurred.
Research and development and Investment and Advances to Non-Consolidated Entities:
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 2 "Accounting for Research and Development Costs," all research and development ("R&D") costs are expensed when they are incurred, unless they are reimbursed under specific contracts. Assets used in R&D activity, such as machinery, equipment, facilities and patents that have alternative future use either in R&D activities or otherwise are capitalized. In connection with investments and advances in development-stage technology entities in which the company owns or controls less than a 50% voting interest, (see Note 5) where repayment from such entity is based on the results of the research and development having future economic benefit, the investment and advances are accounted for as costs incurred by the Company as research and development in accordance with SFAS No. 68 "Research and Development Arrangements".
Income taxes:
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. 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.
Valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets to the extent that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Comprehensive Income (Loss):
SFAS No. 130, “Accounting for Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for reporting and disclosure of comprehensive income and its components (including revenues, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. The items of other comprehensive income that are typically required to be disclosed are foreign currency items, minimum pension liability adjustments, and unrealized gains and losses on certain investments in debt and equity securities. Accumulated other comprehensive income, at September 30, 2008 is $16,006.
Translation of Foreign Currencies:
The U.S. dollar is the functional currency for all of the Company’s businesses, except its operations in Hungary. Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities for this unit is translated into U.S. dollars based on exchange rates prevailing at the end of each period presented, and revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period presented. The effects of foreign exchange gains and losses arising from these translations of assets and liabilities are included as a component of equity, under other comprehensive income.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share of Common Stock:
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share of common stock are computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods presented.
Business Segment:
SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” establishes standards for the way public enterprises report information about operating segments in annual consolidated financial statements and requires reporting of selected information about operating segments in interim financial statements regarding products and services, geographical areas and major customers. The Company has determined that under SFAS No. 131, there are no operating segments since substantially all business operations, assets and liabilities are in Hungarian geographic segment.
Share-Based Payments:
In accordance with SFAS No. 123R “Share-Based Payment” all forms of share-based payment (“SBP”) awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights result in a cost that is measured at fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest.
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services,” which requires that such equity instruments are recorded at their fair value on the measurement date. The measurement of stock-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying equity instrument vests. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges are amortized over the vesting period or period of performance of the services.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109. FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. FIN No. 48 is effective for the Company beginning in January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operation or cash flows.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurement. The new standard applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operation or cash flows.
In September 2006, the staff of the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 108, which provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. SAB 108 becomes effective in fiscal 2007. Adoption of SAB 108 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115", which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The fair value option established by this Statement permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. Adoption is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. The Company is currently evaluating the expected effect of SFAS 159 on its consolidated financial statements and is currently not yet in a position to determine such effects.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) replaces SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations”, but retains the requirement that the purchase method of accounting for acquisitions be used for all business combinations. SFAS 141(R) expands on the disclosures previously required by SFAS 141, better defines the acquirer and the acquisition date in a business combination, and establishes principles for recognizing and measuring the assets acquired (including goodwill), the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interests in the acquired business. SFAS 141(R) also requires an acquirer to record an adjustment to income tax expense for changes in valuation allowances or uncertain tax positions related to acquired businesses. SFAS 141(R) is effective for all business combinations with an acquisition date in the first annual period following December 15, 2008; early adoption is not permitted. We will adopt this statement as of January 1, 2009. The impact of SFAS 141(R) will have on our consolidated financial statements will depend on the nature and size of acquisitions we complete after we adopt SFAS 141(R).
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51” (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 requires that non-controlling (or minority) interests in subsidiaries be reported in the equity section of the company’s balance sheet, rather than in a mezzanine section of the balance sheet between liabilities and equity. SFAS 160 also changes the manner in which the net income of the subsidiary is reported and disclosed in the controlling company’s income statement. SFAS 160 also establishes guidelines for accounting for changes in ownership percentages and for deconsolidation. SFAS 160 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning on or after December 1, 2008 and interim periods within those years. The adoption of SFAS 160 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (SFAS 161). SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities and thereby improves the transparency of financial reporting. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 14, 2008, with early application encouraged. The adoption of SFAS 161 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with US GAAP. This statement is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

ITEM 2 – PLAN OF OPERATION
Overview
We were incorporated in Delaware on August 17, 2006, under the name Tia V, Inc. Since inception, and prior to our acquisition of Vidatech on April 10, 2007, we were engaged solely in organizational efforts and obtaining initial financing. Our sole business purpose was to identify, evaluate and complete a business combination with an operating company.
On April 10, 2007, we completed our acquisition of Vidatech, Kft (also know as Vidatech Technological Research and Development LLC) a limited liability company formed under the laws of the Republic of Hungary. Vidatech is a company formed for the purpose of investing in, acquiring, developing, licensing, and commercializing technologies developed in Hungary. In furtherance of its business, Vidatech provides research and development services to the companies from which it acquires technologies or participation interests in such technologies. Prior to December 31, 2007, Vidatech was primarily focused on organizational and capital raising activities. Through March 31, 2008, we have had only limited operations and acquired rights to eleven technologies, TothTelescope, RiverPower, revolutionary desalination technology based on cavitation, H2OGas for the mixing of water and gasoline for use in internal combustion engines, and the Kalmar inventions (FireSAFE, technology for utilizing communal waste as a concrete additive, technology for repairing potholes with the use of recycled plastics, PVC shielded electric cable recycling technology, a biodegreadable deicing liquid, and technology for the neutralization of red-mud, a toxic byproduct of the aluminum/bauxite industry) and an equity interest in ‘in4 Kft’, a company formed to develop next generation semantic search and content organizer technology. All of these technologies are still in the development stage (see Note 6). As of September 30, 2008, the Company has only realized limited revenues from the TothTelescope project and has not realized any revenues from the other inventions.
We now operate in Hungary through our wholly owned subsidiary, Vidatech Kft., a Hungarian company. Our office in Hungary is located at 1095 Budapest, Soroksari ut 94-96, Hungary.
Description of our Business and Properties
Through Vidatech, we aim to provide pro-active support for idea, research, start-up and expansion-stage technology companies having rights to technologies or intellectual properties which we believe to be potentially commercially viable, by offering a range of services designed to encourage and protect the continuing development and eventual commercialization of those technologies.
Our focus will be on technologies and technology companies based in the Republic of Hungary. We believe that the availability of technologies for purchase or license, coupled with the lack of sufficient investment capital for such technologies in Hungary, present us with an opportunity to acquire technologies on terms and conditions that we deem advantageous.
Our strategy is to acquire majority interests in technologies through, among other things, direct investment in start-up and expansion stage technologies and technology companies; cooperative research and development agreements with such companies; direct licensing agreements; joint venture arrangements; or, direct acquisition of technologies and intellectual properties.
ITEM 2 – PLAN OF OPERATION (Continued)
We also intend to provide services to assist in:
| - | The design of, research of, building of and testing of prototypes; |
| - | facilitation of preparation of filing and prosecution of patent applications with Hungarian patent attorneys; |
| - | financing of research and development activities; |
| - | the exposure of the technology to international markets; and |
| - | the commercialization and/or sale of the subject technology. |
We expect to obtain a majority participation interest in any given transaction involving idea, research, seed, start-up, early stage, technologies.
Capital Resources and Liquidity
In June 2007, pursuant to a private placement under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Company sold 2,250,000 shares of its common stock at $0.34 for an aggregate proceeds of $765,000.
Subsequently, on October 12, 2007, we completed a second private placement under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to which the Company sold 104,000 shares of its common stock at $2.50 per share for aggregate proceeds of $260,000.
In January 2008, pursuant to a private placement under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Company sold 32,500 shares of its common stock at $3.25 per share for aggregate proceeds of $105,625.
On September 30, 2008, the Company had a deficit in working capital of $574,624.
FireSAFE technology
On August 20, the Company licensed its FireSAFE technology to a group of Hungarian investors for a license acquisition fee of HUF 20,000,000 (approximately $120,000). A new company called FireLESS Ltd. was established and given commercialization license. The Company received 30% equity in FireLESS Ltd.
The new company will focus on acquiring the appropriate licenses and certificates to internationally market FireSAFE and will work with local and international fire agencies to test and establish usability baselines for FireSAFE. It is anticipated that the FireLESS Ltd. will start the international roll-out of FireSAFE in the first half of 2009.
To further these goals on October 20, 2008 The Company filed a PCT patent application to protect FireSAFE internationally.
ITEM 2 – PLAN OF OPERATION (Continued)
FireSAFE is an environmentally friendly, biodegradable liquid designed to prevent, and if necessary extinguish natural fires that are exceedingly hard, or impossible to contain with water or other fire-fighting solutions. This category includes forest, bush and other natural fires. FireSAFE reaches the heart of the fire, coating all surfaces with a crystalline layer that hardens when exposed to heat. The layer thus formed is capable of withstanding heat as high as 1,100 degrees centigrade, enough to stop the most fearsome forest fires. Following use (containment of the fire) the biodegradable active ingredient will decompose in approximately four months. FireSAFE can also be used as a preventive solution, both in the wild and in treating lumber. During fire season those areas that are the most likely to be burnt can be sprayed with the solution as a preventive measure. Lumber used in construction can also be treated with FireSAFE to increase its fire resistance factor. FireSAFE can be manufactured anywhere on the planet with ease as all its ingredients are widely and cheaply available.
Financing from Yorkville SEDA
On October 8, 2008, Power of the Dream Ventures, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Standby Equity Distribution Agreement”) with YA Global Investments, L.P. (the “Investor”). Pursuant to the terms of the Standby Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company (a) agreed to issue and sell to the Investor up to $5,000,000 of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) in tranches of equity, based upon a specified discount to the market price of the Common Stock, calculated over the five trading days following notice by the Company of an election to sell shares; and (b) issued to the Investor a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 4,027,386 shares of Common Stock at the exercise price per share of $0.29.
In connection with the Standby Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investor (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to register for resale the shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by the Investor pursuant to the Standby Equity Distribution Agreement, the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant and 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Commitment Shares”) issued to the Investor as a commitment fee pursuant to the terms of the Standby Equity Distribution Agreement.
Financing from this transaction will be used by the Company for the continued development of its current technologies, commercialization of same, the acquisition of new technologies and for general corporate expenses.
The Company filed the details of this transaction on Form 8-K with the Commission on October 14, 2008.
Other than the recently completed private placement all of our funding to date has been generated from loans from our officers and directors. During the next twelve months we anticipate that we will have sufficient funds to proceed only with basic administrative operations and incremental operations with respect to our TothTelescope, RiverPower, revolutionary desalination technology based on cavitation, H2OGas for the mixing of water and gasoline for use in internal combustion engines, and the Kalmar inventions (FireSAFE, technology for utilizing communal waste as a concrete additive, technology for repairing potholes with the use of recycled plastics, PVC shielded electric cable recycling technology, a biodegreadable deicing liquid, and technology for the neutralization of red-mud, a toxic byproduct of the aluminum/bauxite industry) and an equity interest in ‘in4 Kft’, a company formed to develop next generation semantic search and content organizer technology. All of these technologies are still in the development stage (see Note 5). As of September 30, 2008, the Company has only realized limited revenues from the TothTelescope project and has not realized any revenues from the other inventions. In addition we only have limited funds available to continue acquiring and developing the diverse number of technologies available to us, to continue research and development efforts with respect to our current technologies and to fully implement our business plan. If we do not obtain the funds necessary for us to continue our business activities we may need to curtail or cease our operations until such time as we have sufficient funds.
ITEM 2 – PLAN OF OPERATION (Continued)
We currently have no other arrangements for such financings and can give you no assurance that such financings will be available to us when required or on terms that we deem acceptable or at all. We believe that should our securities commence trading on the over-the-counter marketplace, our ability to raise funds may be enhanced but this in itself will not guarantee that we will be able to raise the capital required to implement some or all of our business strategy.
Going Concern and Management’s Plan
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate the continuation of the Company as a going concern and assume realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses from operations since inception. Management anticipates incurring additional losses in 2008. Further, the Company may incur additional losses thereafter, depending on its ability to generate revenues from the licensing or sale of its technologies and products, or to enter into any or a sufficient number of joint ventures. The Company has minimal revenue to date. There is no assurance that the Company can successfully commercialize any of its technologies and products and realize any revenues therefrom. The Company’s technologies and products have never been utilized on a large-scale commercial basis and there is no assurance that any of its technologies or products will receive market acceptance. There is no assurance that the Company can continue to identify and acquire new technologies.
Since inception through September 30, 2008, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $5,132,734 and net cash used in operations of $926,302. However, management of the Company believes that the recent funding from the private placement of the Company’s common shares (See Note 9) will allow them to continue operations and execute its business plan.
Management believes the Company can raise adequate capital to keep the Company functioning during 2008. However, no assurance can be given that the Company can obtain additional working capital, or if obtained, that such funding will not cause substantial dilution to shareholders of the Company. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds, it may be forced to change or delay its contemplated marketing and business plan. Being a development stage company, the Company is subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a new enterprise and the marketing and manufacturing of a new product, many of which risks are beyond the control of the Company. All of the factors discussed above raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
ITEM 2 – PLAN OF OPERATION (Continued)
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of recorded asset amounts that might be necessary as a result of the above uncertainty.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies
This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP"). This preparation requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. US GAAP provides the framework from which to make these estimates, assumption and disclosures. We chose accounting policies within US GAAP that management believes are appropriate to accurately and fairly report our operating results and financial position in a consistent manner. Our management regularly assesses these policies in light of current and forecasted economic conditions. Accounting policies that our management believes to be critical to understanding the results of our operations and the effect of the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements are as those described in the Form 8-K of the Company filed on April 16, 2007 for the year ended December 31, 2006 with the SEC and as amended on August 30, 2007 and as follows.
Research and Development:
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 2 "Accounting for Research and Development Costs," all research and development ("R&D") costs are expensed when they are incurred, unless they are reimbursed under specific contracts. Assets used in R&D activity, such as machinery, equipment, facilities and patents that have alternative future use either in R&D activities or otherwise are capitalized. In connection with the investment and advances in subsidiary, associate or other entity where repayment from such subsidiary, associate or entity solely on the results of the research and development having future economic benefit, the investment and advance is accounted for as costs incurred by the Company as research and development in accordance with SFAS No. 68 "Research and Development Arrangements".
Share-Based Payment:
In accordance with SFAS No. 123R “Share-Based Payment” all forms of share-based payment (“SBP”) awards including shares issued under employee stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights result in a cost that is measured at fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are expected to vest.
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services,” which requires that such equity instruments are recorded at their fair value on the measurement date. The measurement of stock-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying equity instrument vests. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges are amortized over the vesting period or period of performance of the services.
ITEM 2 – PLAN OF OPERATION (Continued)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation (FIN) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109. FIN No. 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. FIN No. 48 is effective for us beginning in January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operation or cash flows.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurement. The new standard applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 14, 2007. We do not believe that the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operation or cash flows.
In September 2006, the staff of the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 108, which provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. SAB 108 becomes effective in fiscal 2007. Adoption of SAB 108 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159 "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115", which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The fair value option established by this Statement permits all entities to choose to measure eligible items at fair value at specified election dates. A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. Adoption is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the provisions of SFAS Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. The Company is currently evaluating the expected effect of SFAS 159 on its consolidated financial statements and is currently not yet in a position to determine such effects.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141(R)”). SFAS 141(R) replaces SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations”, but retains the requirement that the purchase method of accounting for acquisitions be used for all business combinations. SFAS 141(R) expands on the disclosures previously required by SFAS 141, better defines the acquirer and the acquisition date in a business combination, and establishes principles for recognizing and measuring the assets acquired (including goodwill), the liabilities assumed and any non-controlling interests in the acquired business. SFAS 141(R) also requires an acquirer to record an adjustment to income tax expense for changes in valuation allowances or uncertain tax positions related to acquired businesses. SFAS 141(R) is effective for all business combinations with an acquisition date in the first annual period following December 15, 2008; early adoption is not permitted. We will adopt this statement as of January 1, 2009. The impact of SFAS 141(R) will have on our consolidated financial statements will depend on the nature and size of acquisitions we complete after we adopt SFAS 141(R).
ITEM 2 – PLAN OF OPERATION (Continued)
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an amendment of ARB No. 51” (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 requires that non-controlling (or minority) interests in subsidiaries be reported in the equity section of the company’s balance sheet, rather than in a mezzanine section of the balance sheet between liabilities and equity. SFAS 160 also changes the manner in which the net income of the subsidiary is reported and disclosed in the controlling company’s income statement. SFAS 160 also establishes guidelines for accounting for changes in ownership percentages and for deconsolidation. SFAS 160 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning on or after December 1, 2008 and interim periods within those years. The adoption of SFAS 160 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities-an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (SFAS 161). SFAS 161 requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities and thereby improves the transparency of financial reporting. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The adoption of SFAS 161 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with US GAAP. This statement is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
Results of Operations
Three Months Period Ended September 30, 2008 compared to Three Months Period Ended September 30, 2007
Revenue
For the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, we had no revenues.
ITEM 2 – PLAN OF OPERATION (Continued)
General, selling and administrative expenses
For the three months ended September 30, 2008 general, selling and administrative expenses were $907,016 as compared to $247,863 for the three months ended September 30, 2007. The increase in general, selling and administrative expenses of $857,944 are attributable to stock based payments and consulting expenses.
INFLATION AND FOREIGN CURRENCY
We maintain our books in local currency: US Dollars for the parent holding company in the United States of America and Hungarian Forint for Vidatech in Hungary.
Our operations are conducted primary outside of the United States through our wholly owned subsidiary. As a result, fluctuations in currency exchange rates may significantly affect our sales, profitability and financial position when the foreign currencies, primarily the Hungarian Forint, of its international operations are translated into U.S. dollars for financial reporting. In additional, we are also subject to currency fluctuation risk with respect to certain foreign currency denominated receivables and payables. Although we cannot predict the extent to which currency fluctuations may or will affect our business and financial position, there is a risk that such fluctuations will have an adverse impact on our sales, profits and financial position. Because differing portions of our revenues and costs are denominated in foreign currency, movements could impact our margins by, for example, decreasing our foreign revenues when the dollar strengthens and not correspondingly decreasing our expenses. We do not currently hedge our currency exposure. In the future, we may engage in hedging transactions to mitigate foreign exchange risk.
The translation of our subsidiary’s Forint denominated balance sheets into U.S. dollars, as of September 30, 2008, has been affected by the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the Hungarian Forint from 172.82 HUF/USD as of December 31, 2007, to 169.88 HUF/USD as of September 30, 2008, an approximate 2% depreciation in value. The average Hungarian Forint/U.S. dollar exchange rates used for the translation of the subsidiaries forint denominated statements of operations into U.S. dollars, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 were 162.45 and 185.96, respectively.

Based on our management’s evaluation (with participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer), as of the end of the period covered by this report, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that a deficiency was identified in its internal controls over financial reporting which constitutes a “material weakness”. Accordingly, management has concluded that a deficiency was identified in its internal controls over financial reporting which constitutes a “material weakness”. Accordingly, management has concluded that its disclosure controls and procedures are not effective.
The material weakness is a result of certain required accruals for expenses and application of an accounting principle not being accounted and applied correctly. In addition, the review process is not being performed in a timely manner.
Changes in Internal Controls
We maintain a system of internal controls designed to provide reasonable assurance that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and maintain accountability for assets, except for the material weakness identified related to the accrual of expenses discussed above.’.
There were no change in our Internal Controls during the quarter ended September 30, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our Internal Controls.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
It is our responsibility to establish and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting. The material weakness identified, relates to accruals for expenses and application of an accounting principle not being accounted and applied correctly. These control deficiencies in the aggregate resulted in misstatements in the annual or interim consolidated financial statements. Management is in the process of remedying the material weakness described above. Management intends to remedy the situation by adding sufficient accounting personel experienced in GAAP in the United States.

at TMF Hungary Kft. an international accounting firm. From 2006 to 2007 she with worked at BDO Forte AccRoll Kft., where her responsibilities included full scale bookkeeping, including preparation of financial statements, reports and tax-returns of Hungarian and foreign companies. Ms. Toth graduated in 2004 from the College of Finance and Accountancy in Budapest as an Economist on Accountancy.
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors or all instances of fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Controls also can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitation of a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
