Further, the amendment changed the date that the advisory fee consisting of 250,000 restricted shares of the Company’s restricted common stock (“Stock”) was considered fully earned to the date that Heartland was issued the Stock. The Company issued the common stock, valued at $15,000, on August 8, 2012.
j) | Non-Binding Letter of Intent – Terpen Kraftig, LLC |
On October 10, 2012, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Dynamic Energy IP Corporation (“DEIP”), executed a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) with Terpen Kraftig LLC (TK), a company managed by two of the Company’s Directors, Charles R. Cronin, Jr. and Dr. Earl Beaver, contemplating a definitive agreement within 45 days from said letter of intent under which TK would assign to DEIP the exclusive, worldwide license and right in and to Licensor’s catalyst(s), reactor and fractionator technology relating to the recovery of high valued organics from the processing of waste tires (the “Licensed Technology”).
The LOI sets forth terms for a future definitive agreement that anticipates that the term of the license and assignment to Licensor of the Licensed Technology shall be the greater of (a) twenty-five (25) years, or (b) twenty (20) years from the issuance of the Licensed IP patent(s), whichever is greater, and that compensation payable to TK from the Company and DEIP would consist of:
1. | A non-refundable deposit in the amount of $100,000 to secure the exclusivity of the term sheet, payable within 30 days and prior to preparation and execution of the Definitive Agreement, which shall, upon execution of the Definitive Agreement, be allocated towards to costs associated with the purchase of the equipment required to construct a prototype unit (the “Prototype”) of the Licensed Technology. |
2. | A payment to Licensor in the amount of Four Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars (USD$400,000), on or before December 31, 2012, for the purchase of the equipment required to construct a pilot plant with input of a minimum of 50/gallons per day (the “Pilot Plant”). If Licensee fails to fund the Pilot Plant on or before December 31, 2012, the Licensor shall have the right cancel and rescind the licensing rights of the Licensed IP granted to Licensee under the Definitive Agreement. |
3. | A minimum royalty cash payment of Thirty-Five Thousand and No/100 Dollars (USD $35,000) per month, from the date of execution of the Definitive Agreement forward over the term of the license, until and except when the royalty stream exceeds $35,000 per month (the “Minimum Licensing Fee”). |
The letter of intent contains customary warranties and representations and confidentiality provisions, including specific terms which are considered trade secrets, and are therefore not being released.
The Company is still seeking funding and is in default on this agreement due to non-payment. Without funds to secure the exclusivity of the term sheet or obtain consent from TK to defer payment of the amount required, there is no formal agreement between TK and the Company at this time. The Definite Agreement is still being negotiated.
Potential benefits of income tax losses and other tax assets are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company has net operating losses carryforwards of approximately $1,310,000 and $1,262,000, respectively, for tax purposes in various jurisdictions subject to expiration as described below. Pursuant to ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward and other items giving rise to deferred tax assets. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses and other items have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these items.
The actual income tax provisions differ from the expected amounts calculated by applying the combined income tax statutory rates applicable in each jurisdiction to the Company’s loss before income taxes and non-controlling interest. The components of these differences are as follows:
| | Three Months Ended March 31, | |
| | 2013 | | | 2012 | |

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Basis of Presentation
The following management’s discussion and analysis is intended to provide additional information regarding the significant changes and trends which influenced our financial performance for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and notes as set forth in this report.
Company Overview
Dynamic Energy Alliance Corporation (“DEAC”) was formerly Mammatech Corporation (“MAMM”) (or the “Company”), and was incorporated in the State of Florida on November 23, 1981 as Mammatech Corporation.
Through its wholly owned subsidiary, Dynamic Energy Development Corporation (“DEDC”), the Company has a business plan to develop, commercialize, and sell innovative technologies in the recoverable energy sector. Specifically, it is focused on identifying, combining and enhancing existing industry technologies with proprietary recoverable production and finishing processes to produce synthetic oil, carbon black, gas, and carbon steel from discarded or waste tires waste. This process will be accomplished with limited residual waste product and significant reductions in greenhouse gases, compared to traditional processing. To maximize this opportunity, the Company has developed a scalable, commercial development strategy to build "Energy Campuses" with low operational costs and long-term, recurring revenues.
Transformation Consulting (”TC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of DEDC, provides business development, marketing and administrative consulting services. Through a January 2010 management services and agency agreement (“Agency Agreement”), TC receives revenues from a related party based on billings received from certain of TC’s direct to consumer membership club products that were transferred to the related party under the Agency Agreement.
Plan of Operations
The Company’s business plan is focused on developing and implementing recoverable energy technologies. DEDC, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, is currently seeking to locate joint venture partners or other financing partners (hereinafter collectively “joint venture partners”), on a project by project basis, for the purpose of development, construction and operation of free standing plants which provide full cycle processing to convert discarded tires into shelf ready, saleable synthetic oil and solvents and carbon products (hereinafter referred to as “plants”). Although, the Company has identified various plant locations and potential joint venture opportunities, as of today, it has not executed any agreements for the development of a plant.
The Company proposes to develop a full cycle process plant for converting discarded tires to saleable synthetic oil and solvents and carbon products. To accomplish this plan and other milestones, management intends to secure one or more partnerships, on a site-by-site basis, with local joint venture partners and/or financing sources, including companies who produce shredded tire feedstock usable in the plants. The Company’s business plan anticipates the creation of a state-of-the-art production facility called the “Pyrol Black Energy Campus” in 2013 and early 2014, as one of its initial milestones. Specifically, the Company plans to acquire, combine and optimize a variety of existing proven and potentially innovative “Renewable Energy” technologies currently available in the market. Once a demonstration plant has been completed and is in operation, the Company’s plan includes the development of similar freestanding facilities at different US locations (and, possibly other global markets). Creation of such an initial plant requires obtaining a location that has a dependable supply of waste feed stock for the plant, obtaining the necessary capital to develop, construct and set in operation the plant (likely with local joint venture partners and/or other financing sources), and establishment of markets for the resale of resulting products. The Company will seek to partner with other companies who can provide tire feedstock, land for a plant, and/or capital, on a joint venture basis. As of this date, the Company has identified a location in Ennis, Texas as a potential site upon which it could develop its first Energy Campus, and has announced its intention to purchase such site, pending the completion of favorable due diligence and the obtaining of the necessary capital required to proceed, the source for which is uncertain at this date.
Requirements and Utilization of Funds
To implement our plan of operations, including some or all of the above described milestones (objectives), we will need to continue to raise capital (“equity”) in an amount between $2,500,000 and $5,000,000 in equity from restricted stock sales or other acceptable financing options over the 12 month period beginning in the second quarter of 2013 on terms and conditions to be determined. Management may elect to seek subsequent interim or “bridge” financing in the form of debt (corporate loans) as may be necessary.
We anticipate the need to raise additional capital for the first 6 months of operations, if at least $2.5 million has not been raised by the end of such period, subject to the successful implementation of our initial milestones over the first 180 days of operations and our revenue growth cycle thereafter. At this time, management is unable to determine the specific amounts and terms of such future financings.
We foresee the proceeds from capital raised to be allocated as follows: (a) consolidation and integration; (b) growth capital; (c) research and due diligence; (d) pre-development plant costs; (e) product enhancements and technology partners; (f) new business development; (g) legal, audit, SEC filings and compliance fees; (h) financing costs; (i) working capital (general and administrative); (j) reserve capital for costs of acquisition and market expansion.
At such time as these funds are required, management would evaluate the terms of such debt financing and determine whether the business could sustain operations and growth and manage the debt load. To date management has not identified the source for such additional capital, and whether the Company will be able to raise sufficient capital, and do so on commercially reasonable terms, in uncertain. If we cannot raise additional proceeds via a private placement of our common stock or secure debt financing we would be required to cease business operations. As a result, investors in our common stock would lose all of their investment.
Management has plans for the staged development of our business over the next twelve months. Other than engaging and/or retaining independent consultants to assist the Company in various administrative and marketing related needs, we do not anticipate a significant change in the number of our employees, if any, unless we are able to obtain adequate financing.
In our 2012 Form 10-K, our auditors have issued a “going concern” opinion. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our expenses. This is because we have not generated enough revenues and no substantial revenues are anticipated in the near-term. Accordingly, we must seek to raise cash from sources other than from the sale of our products.
Our operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 are summarized as follows:
| | Three Months Ended March 31, | |
| | 2013 | | | 2012 | |
Revenue | | $ | - | | | $ | 301,704 | |
Operating expenses | | | 197,920 | | | | 523,465 | |
Net operating (loss) income | | $ | (197,920 | ) | | $ | (221,761) | |
Revenue represents TC commission revenues earned after Merger on March 9, 2011 from a management service agreement that the TC had in place prior to the merger. The decrease in 2013 is primarily due to the decrease in new business activity since the business was acquired in 2011.
Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 are outlined in the table below:
| | Three Months Ended March 31, | |
| | 2013 | | | 2012 | |
Project development costs | | $ | - | | | $ | 149,391 | |
Consulting services | | | 50,000 | | | | 130,000 | |
General and administrative expenses | | | 147,920 | | | | 244,074 | |
Total operation expenses | | $ | 197,920 | | | $ | 523,465 | |
The decrease in project development costs from 2012 to 2013 is primarily due to no project development activities during the first quarter of 2013. The decrease in consulting services from 2012 to 2013 is primarily due to the termination of monthly consulting fees to Key Services on July 1, 2012. The decrease in general and administrative expenses from 2012 to 2013 is primarily due to decrease in in public company related costs, such as accounting, auditing, legal and investor related activities.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2013, we had no cash and our working capital deficit is $1,704,766. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we generated no revenues and have a net loss of $208,290. As of March 31, 2013, we have a cumulative net loss of $6,203,848. We are illiquid and need cash infusions from investors and/or current shareholders to support our proposed marketing and sales operations.
Working Capital

Net cash used in operating activities | | $ | (592 | ) | | $ | (30,504) | |
Net cash provided by financing activities | | | - | | | | (29,354 | ) |
Net decrease in cash | | $ | (592 | ) | | $ | (1,150) | |
Cash Flows - Operating Activities
Cash used in operating activities of $592 in the three months ended March 31, 2013 is primarily due to net loss of $208,290, offset by non-cash warrant expenses for consulting services of $110,000 and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $93,412. Cash used in operating activities of $30,504 in the three months ended March 31, 2012 is primarily due to net loss of $238,714, offset by non-cash warrant expenses for consulting services of $140,000 and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $63,257.
Cash Flows - Financing Activities
There were no financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2013. Cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2012 is due to cash received from contingent consideration of $29,354.
Going Concern Uncertainties
Management believes that our current financial condition, liquidity and capital resources may not satisfy our cash requirements for the next 12 months and as such we will need to either raise additional proceeds and/or our officers and/or directors will need to make additional financial commitments to our company, neither of which is guaranteed. We plan to satisfy our future cash requirements, primarily the working capital required to execute on our objectives, including marketing and sales of our product, and legal and accounting fees, through financial commitments from future debt/equity financings, if and when possible.
Management believes that we may generate more sales revenue within the next 12 months, but that these sales revenues will not satisfy our cash requirements to implement our business plan, including, but not limited to, project acquisitions, engineering, and integration costs, and other operating expenses and corporate overhead (which is subject to change depending upon pending business opportunities and available financing).
We have no committed source for funds as of this date. No representation is made that any funds will be available when needed. In the event that funds cannot be raised when needed, we may not be able to carry out our business plan, may never achieve sales, and could fail to satisfy our future cash requirements as a result of these uncertainties.
If we are unsuccessful in raising the additional proceeds from officers and/or directors, we may then have to seek additional funds through debt financing, which would be extremely difficult for an early stage company to secure and may not be available to us. However, if such financing is available, we would likely have to pay additional costs associated with high-risk loans and be subject to above market interest rates.
The Company and has a cumulative net loss of $6,203,848. The Company currently has only limited working capital with which to continue its operating activities. The amount of capital required to sustain operations is subject to future events and uncertainties, but the Company anticipates it will need to obtain approximately $2,500,000 in additional capital in the form of debt or equity in order to cover its current expenses over the next 12 months and continue to implement its business plan. Whether such capital will be obtainable, or obtainable on commercially reasonable terms is at this date uncertain. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operation, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is deemed by our management to be material to investors.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1), we are not required to provide the information required by this Item 3.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective in all material respects, including those to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are 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 of the 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. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
In the three months ended March 31, 2013, there had been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
We are not currently a party to any material, pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary, routine litigation incidental to our business.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following important factors, and the important factors described elsewhere in this report or in our other filings with the SEC, could affect (and in some cases have affected) our results and could cause our results to be materially different from estimates or expectations. Other risks and uncertainties may also affect our results or operations adversely. The following and these other risks could materially and adversely affect our business, operations, results or financial condition.
An investment in the Company is highly speculative in nature and involves an extremely high degree of risk. A prospective investor should consider the possibility of the loss of the investor's entire investment and evaluate all information about us and the risk factors discussed below in relation to his financial circumstances before investing in us.
Risks Related to the Business and Financial Condition
Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern.” Accordingly, there is significant doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our business began recording revenues in first quarter 2011. As of March 31, 2013, we had an accumulated deficit of $6,203,848 and no cash on hand. A significant amount of capital will be necessary to initiate our business plan to the point where we have one or more plants up and operating which are commercially viable. The source and availability of such capital is uncertain, and we may be unable to obtain such capital, or obtain it on commercially reasonable terms. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
If we continue incurring losses, fail to achieve profitability, or are unable to locate additional capital on commercially reasonable terms to implement our business plans, we may have to cease activities. Our financial condition raises substantial doubt that we will be able to operate as a “going concern”, and our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph regarding this uncertainty in their report on our financial statements as of December 31, 2012. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the uncertainty as to whether we will achieve status as a “going concern”. Our ability to achieve status as a “going concern” is dependent upon our generating cash flow sufficient to fund operations. Our business plans may not be successful in addressing these issues. If we cannot achieve status as a “going concern”, you may lose your entire investment in the Company.
We are currently dependent on external financing, the source of which is uncertain.
Currently, we are dependent upon external financing to fund implementation of our business plan. We estimate that over the next 12 months we will need $2,500,000 to $5,000,000 to implement our business plan, including, but not limited to, project acquisitions, engineering, and development and integration costs, and other operating expenses and corporate overhead (which is subject to change depending upon pending business opportunities and available financing). We will also need to negotiate, joint venture arrangements and/or other financing arrangements to provide capital for development, construction and initial operation of our first plant, which we estimate will cost approximately $15,000,000 to build out and establish commercial operations. We do not have such capital available at this date. It is imperative that we receive this external financing to implement our business plan and to finance start-up operations. New capital may not be available, adequate funds may not be sufficient to implement our business plan, or capital may not be available when needed or on commercially reasonable terms. Our failure to obtain adequate additional financing would require us to delay, curtail or scale back some or all of our efforts to implement our business plan and could jeopardize our ability to continue in business.
We may not be able to establish joint venture or financing arrangements, obtain the capital to market our technology, or otherwise successfully operate our business.
We believe that part of the key to establishing revenues is to successfully establish joint venture or financing arrangements with local joint venture partners, and/or other local financing sources, and with public and private entities who have the need to dispose of waste products which will serve as the feedstock for operation of our Energy Campuses tm. We have not as yet negotiated such joint ventures or arrangements, and our ability to do so, and do so on favorable terms to our proposed business is uncertain. Our success in this regard will depend in large part on how our technology works, market acceptance of our proposed technology and our efforts to educate potential joint venture and financing partners on the advantages of teaming with us to develop, build out and operate our proposed plants. Acceptance of such proposals requires marketing expenditures and education and awareness on the part of potential joint venture partners who might serve as partners in our development of plants. We may not have the resources required to promote our technology, or to promote proposals to develop plants and to promote their potential benefits. Such efforts will require additional capital, and the availability, sources and terms for such capital are uncertain. If we are unable to obtain the necessary capital, or unable to successfully promote our technology and/or proposed plant development, or unable to develop profitable joint venture arrangements with producers of waste feed stock, we will be unable to implement our business plan or continue in business.
We have limited operating history and may be unsuccessful in our efforts to implement our expanded business plan.
We have limited history of revenues from operations. We have yet to generate positive earnings and there can be no assurance that we will ultimately establish profitable operations. Our business plan is subject to all the risks inherent associated with project development, financing and implementation. We may be unable to locate sites, locate joint venture and/or financial partners, locate the required additional capital, our technology may not work as anticipated, we may find it difficult to obtain waste feed stock at reasonable prices, our end products may not find market acceptance, and/or we may fail to operate on a profitable basis. Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered in commercializing our technology and plan proposals. If the business plan is not successful and we are not able to operate profitably, investors may lose some or all of their investment.
If we are unable to obtain additional funding, business operations will be harmed and if we do obtain additional financing then existing shareholders may suffer substantial dilution.
We anticipate that we will require up to approximately $2,500,000 to fund continued operations for the next twelve months, depending on revenue, if any, from operations. Additional capital will be required to effectively support the operations and to otherwise implement an overall business strategy. This is in addition to substantial additional capital we are proposing to raise from local joint venture partners and other financing participants on a project-by-project basis. We currently do not have any contracts or commitments for additional financing or for plant project joint ventures. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in required amounts or on commercially reasonable terms. The inability to obtain additional capital will restrict our ability to implement our business plan. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will likely be required to cease activities. Any additional equity financing which involves the sale of our corporate securities may involve substantial dilution to then existing shareholders, while participation arrangements in joint ventures and other arrangements will dilute the ownership interest in, and profit potential of each plant, since the ownership and fruits of plant operation will have to be shared among participating capital sources.
Because we are small and do not have much capital, we may have to limit marketing activity which may result in a loss of your investment.
Because we are small and do not have much capital, we must limit our business activity. As such we may not be able to complete the sales and marketing efforts required to create opportunities and then enter into joint venture arrangements to develop, construct and operate plants. If we cannot successfully negotiate and enter into contracts for the development, construction and operation of plants, either in joint venture form, or though financing arrangements, then the Company will not be successful and you will lose your investment.
If we are unable to continue to retain the services of our current executive personnel and key consultants, or if we are unable to successfully recruit qualified managerial and company personnel having experience in our renewable energy industry, it would be detrimental to our business.
Our success depends to a significant extent upon the continued services of our current executive personnel and key consultants, including specifically James Michael Whitfield, Charles R. Cronin, Jr. and Tracy Williams. The loss of the services of any of these key persons could have a material adverse effect on our growth, revenues, and prospective business. None of these individuals currently have employment agreements and are paid compensation and they could leave us with little or no prior notice. We do not have “key person” life insurance policies covering any of our employees. Additionally, there are a limited number of qualified technical personnel with significant experience in the design, development, manufacture, and sale of our recoverable energy, and we may face challenges hiring and retaining these types of employees.
In order to successfully implement and manage our business plan, we will be dependent upon, among other things, successfully retaining and recruiting qualified managerial and company personnel having experience in our recoverable energy business. Competition for qualified individuals is intense. There can be no assurance that we will be able to find, attract and retain existing employees or that we will be able to find, attract and retain qualified personnel on acceptable terms.
We are a new entrant into the “Renewable Energy” industry without profitable operating history.
As of March 31, 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of $6,203,848. We expect to derive our future revenues by implementation of our business plan, which contemplates establishment of joint ventures and other financing arrangements for the development, construction and operation of plants, and the sales of our systems. Success in implementing this business plan and thereby generating revenues is highly uncertain. We expect to continue to devote available resources to implement our business plan. As a result, we expect that our operating losses will increase and that we may incur operating losses for the foreseeable future.
We may not be successful in our efforts to build and profitably operate production facilities, with the result that we will be able to generate enough future revenues to achieve or sustain profitability.
We are dependent on the successful execution of acquiring, combining and maximizing a variety of existing, proven and unproven but innovative “Recoverable Energy” technologies which we plan to build and to use in operation of what management believes will be profitable production facilities (“Energy Campuses TM”). The market for our concept of combining technologies is unproven, and certain of the technologies are unproven as well. The technology may not work, or may not work properly in conjunction with other technologies, or may not gain adequate commercial acceptance. Thus, there is no assurance that our business plan will succeed.
If We Do Not Obtain And Maintain Necessary Domestic Regulatory Registrations, Approvals And Comply With Ongoing Regulations, We May Not Be Able To Develop, Construct or Operate Our Energy Campuses.
The Energy Campuses we propose to develop, construct and operate, will be subject to extensive Federal, State and Local laws and regulations. Compliance with such laws and regulations may involve the submission of a substantial volume of data and may require lengthy substantive review. This will increase costs and could reduce profitability. We may not be able to comply with future regulatory requirements. Moreover, the cost of compliance with government regulations may adversely affect revenue and profitability on a continuing basis once we have established plants, which are operating. Failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can result in, among other things, in injunctions, operating restrictions, civil fines and criminal prosecution. Delays or failure to obtain registrations could have a material adverse effect on the marketing and sales of services and impair the ability to operate profitably in the future.
Because Our Industry Is Subject To Rapid Technological Changes And New Developments, Our Future Success Will Depend On Our Ability To Respond To The Changes And Keep Out Technology updated.
The creation of plants and technology utilized to convert waste materials to energy and other usable products is a relatively new technology and is subject to potentially revolutionary technological changes and new developments. Future technological developments could render the plants we propose to build and operate, and/or the equipment therein, obsolete. Future success will depend largely on our ability to anticipate or adapt to such changes in the development, operation and subsequent adaption of our plants.
Our Markets Are Increasingly Competitive And, In The Event We Are Unable To Compete Against Larger Competitors, Our Business Could Be Adversely Affected.
The conversion of waste products and materials to energy and alternative new products is becoming an increasingly competitive business. We will compete against several companies seeking to address the conversion of low cost scrap tires into renewable synthetic oil and consumer products. Competitors with greater access to financial resources may enter our proposed markets and compete with us. Many of our competitors will have longer operating histories, larger customer bases, longer relationships with clients, and significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, and public relations resources than we do. We do not have any research and development underway, relying instead on a combination of current state of the art technology for the initial plants we propose to develop, build and operate, while other competitors have established budgets for such R&D. Established competitors, who have substantially greater financial resources and longer operating histories than us, are able to engage in more substantial marketing and promotion and attract a greater number of joint venture opportunities for the development, construction and operation of plants. In the event that we are not able to compete successfully, our business will be adversely affected and competition may make it more difficult for us to raise capital, establish joint ventures for plant development and implement our business plan.
The Company’s Implementation of Its Plan May Be impacted by the health and stability of the general economy.
Unfavorable changes in general economic conditions, such as the current recession, or economic slowdown in the geographic markets in which the Company seeks to establish business may have the effect of making it difficult to raise the required additional capital, or to locate potential joint venture partners which serve as a key part of our business plan. Markets for our anticipated by products may disappear, or prices may fall. These factors could adversely affect the Company’s implementation of its business plan and the ultimate establishment of profitable operations.
Failure to establish and maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results and stock price.
Maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and is important in helping to prevent financial fraud. If we are unable to maintain adequate internal controls, our business and operating results could be harmed.
Risks Related to Common Stock
Additional financings may dilute the holdings of our current shareholders.
In order to provide capital for the operation of the business, we may enter into additional financing arrangements. These arrangements may involve the issuance of new shares of common stock, preferred stock that is convertible into common stock, debt securities that are convertible into common stock or warrants for the purchase of common stock. Any of these items could result in a material increase in the number of shares of common stock outstanding, which would in turn result in a dilution of the ownership interests of existing common shareholders. In addition, these new securities could contain provisions, such as priorities on distributions and voting rights, which could affect the value of our existing common stock.
There is currently a limited public market for our common stock. Failure to develop or maintain a trading market could negatively affect its value and make it difficult or impossible for you to sell your shares.
There has been a limited public market for our common stock and an active public market for our common stock may not develop. Failure to develop or maintain an active trading market could make it difficult for you to sell your shares or recover any part of your investment in us. Even if a market for our common stock does develop, the market price of our common stock may be highly volatile. In addition to the uncertainties relating to future operating performance and the profitability of operations, factors such as variations in interim financial results or various, as yet unpredictable, factors, many of which are beyond our control, may have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock.
Risks Associated with Control of Our Company through Outstanding Preferred Stock.
Our Capital Structure as currently evolved places effective control of Certain Significant Decisions in the hands of four Series A Convertible Preferred Shareholders
We currently have outstanding 11,720,966 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, which is held by four shareholders as follows (hereinafter the “Series A Shareholders”):
Charles R. Cronin | 7,554,968 Shares |
James Michael Whitfield | 1,674,662 Shares |
Harvey Dale Cheek | 1,966,613 Shares |
Dr. Earl Beaver | 524,723 Shares |
The Certificate of Designation for these shares provides among other rights and privileges the requirement that 75% of the outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred must give their prior consent, before the Company can elect members to the Board of Directors, issue any securities of the Company or affect any fundamental transaction (defined as acquisitions, mergers, sale or purchase of substantially all assets, etc.).
As a result, the Company’s Board of Directors cannot act to issue additional securities to raise capital or for other purposes, nor may the common shareholders remove, replace or re-elect directors to the Board of Directors, nor may the Company affect any acquisitions, without the approval of at least 75% of its outstanding Series A Preferred Stock.
Series A Shareholders may have interests or goals different from, or even adverse to the interests of the Company and its business in some circumstances. As a result the Company may find it difficult or impossible to obtain such consent from the Series A Shareholders, should it need to raise capital by the sale of securities, or undertake one of the other specified actions. Common shareholders may be essentially blocked under these provisions from changing the members of the Board of Directors, despite the fact that Directors may not be performing their duties in an adequate manner in the view of a majority of the common shareholders. These provisions preclude or discourage outside take over or sale of the Company or its assets, unless approved by 75% of the outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred Shares. There may be potentially other adverse consequences arising from these restrictions on the Company and its Board of Directors.
Trading of our stock is restricted by the Securities Exchange Commission’s penny stock regulations, may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors”. The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth exclusive of home in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
