1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
In this Report, unless the context otherwise requires, the terms the "Company" and "Dynamotive" refer to Dynamotive Energy Systems Corporation and its subsidiaries. The Company is listed on the over-the-counter bulletin board (OTCBB) under the symbol: DYMTF.OB. The executive office of the Company is Suite 230 – 1700 West 75thAvenue, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6P 6G2 (Telephone: 1-604-267-6000).
Dynamotive was incorporated on April 11, 1991 under the laws of the Province of British Columbia. The Company changed its name from Dynamotive Technologies Corporation on June 26, 2001. Dynamotive is focused on the development of innovative energy solutions on its patented fast pyrolysis system. The Company’s focus is to commercialize its patented BioOil production technology and establish this technology for production of BioOil clean fuels.
Dynamotive Energy Systems Corporation (the “Company” and or “Dynamotive”) is commercializing a biomass-to-liquid fuel conversion using a process known as “Fast Pyrolysis” which uses biomass or biomass waste feedstocks to produce BioOil as a fuel and char. BioOil is a clean, renewable fuel which can replace natural gas, diesel and other fossil fuels in certain applications to produce power, mechanical energy and heat in industrial boilers, fuel gas turbines and fuel reciprocating engines. The Company aims to unleash significant amounts of energy production, in the form of BioOil fuels, based upon utilization of abundant biomass waste streams from agricultural and forest operations and other post-industrial biomass residues. The process of biomass to energy conversion is sustainable, renewable and greenhouse gas neutral, and competes with other renewable energy sources such as wind, hydro and solar. One significant advantage of biomass energy over other renewable forms of energy, is that biomass is capable of delivering energy on a 24/7 basis, whereas wind, hydro and solar energy sources are all subject to natural weather fluctuations.
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Dynamotive Canada Inc., federally incorporated under the laws of Canada; Dynamotive Corporation, incorporated under the laws of Rhode Island, U.S.A.; Dynamotive USA Inc. incorporated under the laws of Delaware, U.S.A.; Dynamotive Latinoamericana S.A., incorporated under the laws of Buenos Aires, Argentina; First Resources Corporation, incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada; Dynamotive Biomass Resource Corporation, incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada. In addition, the Company maintains an 80% ownership interest in Dynamotive Europe Limited, formally known as Dynamotive Technologies (UK) Ltd, incorporated in the United Kingdom and owns a 99.98% interest in the West Lorne BioOil Co-Generation LP, formed under the laws of Ontario, Canada. Dynamotive Canada Inc. acts as the General Partner of the Limited Partnership, which operates the West Lorne BioOil and electricity generation plant.
These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which presumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations for the foreseeable future.

2. UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The unaudited balance sheet at June 30, 2008 and the unaudited interim statements of loss and deficit and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, in the opinion of management, have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2007. These interim financial statements include all adjustments necessary for the fair statement of results of the interim periods. The data disclosed in the notes to the interim consolidated financial statements for this period are also unaudited. Results for the three months ended June 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007, and the summary of significant accounting policies included therein.
The accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries are measured using the Canadian dollar as the functional currency. Monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and non-monetary items are translated using historical exchange rates. Exchange gains or losses arising on the translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated monetary items are included in the determination of net income.
The Company uses the U.S. dollar as the reporting currency for its consolidated financial statements. Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and revenue and expense accounts are translated using the average exchange rate during the three months. Gains and losses resulting from this process are recorded in shareholders’ deficit as an adjustment to the cumulative translation adjustment account.
3. LOAN RECEIVABLE
On November 14, 2007, the Company and Biomass Worldwide Limited (“Biomass”) and Anthony Pius Noll (“Guarantor”) entered into a negotiation commitment and loan agreement where the Company will loan Biomass up to $720,000 in five tranches (to be completed by April 12, 2008) on the understanding that if the parties are able to reach a definitive agreement in respect of an equity investment by the Company in Biomass, all the loan will be converted into not less than 30% of the equity of Biomass. If the Company concludes in its sole discretion that it will be unable to agree upon an equity conversion agreement with Biomass, 72% of the loan shall be repaid together with interest at 6% p.a. compounded semi-annually. The other 28% of the loan (plus interest at 6% p.a. compounded semi-annually) will, at the election of Biomass, be either (i) converted into equity of Biomass at “fair value” or (ii) converted into a 3% royalty on gross sales of any products or services of Biomass or the Guarantor which use or incorporate Biomass’ or the Guarantor’s intellectual property until the amount is repaid with interest. The due date for repayment of the loan shall be on demand any time on or after March 7, 2008. The loan is secured by a pledge of all of the assets of Biomass and by an unconditional guarantee of the Guarantor. As at June 30, 2008, the Company has loaned $520,000 to Biomass and no loan repayments had been made. In July 2008, the loan of $520,000 was repaid in full to the Company.

6. GUARANTEE PROVIDED BY DYNAMOTIVE
In 2001, Border Biofuels Limited (“BBL”) a company 75% owned by Dynamotive, entered into a credit facility with Bank of Scotland for a maximum of $398,120 (£200,000). The credit facility is denominated in British Pounds Sterling. Interest is charged at the bank’s base rate plus 3%. The credit facility is guaranteed by the Company. During 2002 BBL became insolvent. If the Bank is unable to realize on its security with BBL, it has the right to seek settlement from the Company for payment. Although there is currently no indication that the Bank will pursue the Company, the Company has recognized the full amount of the guarantee as a current liability and included the impact as part of the 2002 (December) loss from discontinued operations. As BBL remains in liquidation at June 30, 2008, there has been no change in status regarding the settlement of the credit facility.
7. SHORT TERM DEBT
During the quarter, the Company entered into loan agreements with directors, officers and shareholders for $1,213,863 (2007 - $nil). The loans are due on demand and bear interest at 8% per annum for the amount of $1,056,785 and at 23% per annum, the borrowing cost of the lender, for the amount of $157,078.
8. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION
The Company expects that at the end of the life of its production plants, there will be residual obligations to remediate the sites and remove equipment. Although the timing and amount of the future obligations are uncertain, the Company has estimated the present value of these future obligations arising from its activities to June 30, 2008 to be $257,616 (2007 - $nil), being $128,808 for West Lorne and $128,808 for Guelph. The present value of the future obligations assumes a discount rate of 15%, an inflation rate of 2% and the commencement of reclamation activities in 15 years. The Company commenced accretion of these obligations at January 1, 2008.
9. DEFERRED REVENUE
In 2006, the Company received a total of $950,000 in non-refundable payments from three unrelated companies as licensing fees. $500,000 from Rika Ltd. as payment for a Master License to develop project opportunities in the Ukraine and the Baltic republics using Dynamotive’s patented pyrolysis technology; $150,000 from Classic Power Inc. as an initial payment on a Plant License for Guelph, Ontario, Canada; $200,000 from Renewable Oil Corporation Pty Ltd. (“ROC”) for a Master License to develop project opportunities in Australia and $100,000 from ROC as a deposit on an initial Plant License.
In the first quarter of 2008, the Company recognized Rika Ltd. master license fee of $500,000 at the end of the agreement term, and this amount has been removed from the deferred revenue balance.
In 2007, deferred revenue was net of $330,000 advanced to entities controlled by Rika Ltd. With recognition of the Rika payments as revenue in the first quarter of 2008, these amounts advanced to Rika are now classified as a long-term investment (note 4).
In 2007, the Company received common shares of ROC with a fair value of $300,000 as compensation for engineering services performed. The Company subsequently transferred common shares of ROC with a fair value of $150,000 to a sub-contractor as partial settlement for services provided to ROC by the sub-contractor on behalf of the Company. These amounts are included in deferred revenue.
