REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors:


Probe Manufacturing, Inc.

17475 Gillette Avenue

Irvine, CA  92614



We have reviewed the accompanying balance sheet of Probe Manufacturing, Inc. as of September 30, 2010 and the related statements of operations and cash flows for the three to nine month periods ended

September 30, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.


We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1, conditions exist which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the uncertainty.

PROBE MANUFACTURING, INC.


NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


The use of the words “we,” “us,” “our” or “the Company” refers to Probe Manufacturing, Inc. and its subsidiaries, except where the context otherwise requires.


1. Organization and Description of the Business.


Probe Manufacturing Industries, Inc. was incorporated on July 7, 1995. On April 21, 2005, we re-domiciled from California to Nevada, and changed our name to Probe Manufacturing, Inc.  Probe Manufacturing, Inc. (the “Company” or “Probe”) is a global provider of advanced electronics manufacturing services, or EMS, to original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, primarily in the medical device, aerospace, industrial, instrumentation and alternative fuel segments. This includes end-to-end manufacturing solutions ranging from engineering to manufacturing of printed circuit board assembly, cable assembly, enclosures, complete system integration and testing, as well as global order fulfillment.  In August 2008, we acquired the assets of Solar Masters, LLC, a distributer of solar powered products.


On July 13, 2009, we entered into a stock sale agreement with Solar Masters Acquisition Company, to sell its entire interest in its investment in Solar Masters, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary) for $35,000, consisting of a note receivable for $25,000 and the assumption of $10,000 in notes payable referenced above.  This resulted in a loss on sale of investment of $190,464.  Barrett Evans, our interim Chief Executive Officer at the time and a member of our board of directors resigned on July 27, 2009 and took a position with Solar Masters as a consultant. Kambiz Mahdi was a member of the board of directors of Solar Masters and resigned on July 14, 2009.


On June 17, 2009, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with KB Development Group, LLC to sell 152,000,000 shares of our common stock for $120,000. Concurrently; we entered into settlement agreements with each of our note holders to settle the outstanding notes payable for $120,000 and the assumption of a $10,000 note by Solar Masters. Between July 13, 2009 and July 27, 2009 all of the notes were paid and settled, which resulted in a realized gain of $708,708 and a reduction in our notes payable of $840,203. Kambiz Mahdi, a member of our board of directors and our Chief Executive Officer is the managing partner of KB Development Group, LLC.


Going Concern


The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Although; for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we had a net profit of $243,214, a working capital surplus of $37,535 and a shareholder surplus of $177,357; we had an accumulated deficit of (329,576) our ability to operate as a going concern is still dependent upon our ability (1) to obtain sufficient debt and/or equity capital and/or (2) continue to generate positive cash flow from operations and maintain profitability.

PROBE MANUFACTURING, INC.


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) – (Continued)


Plan of Operations


We have seen a dramatic drop in revenue beginning in the fourth quarter of 2008 and continuing through September 30, 2009.  We have made significant expense cuts as a direct result of this drop in revenue.  In addition to the steps discussed below, we have initiated a major sales push in an attempt to gain new revenue; however, no guarantees can be made as to whether or not we will be successful in winning the quoted business or if it will be able to keep its existing business.


Management is taking the following steps to address this situation: (a) to improve operational efficiencies by: (i) global expansion of our material sourcing and reducing our direct cost of materials (ii) by creating a strategic alliance with global suppliers in lower cost regions and outsourcing some of our end-to-end services (iii) increase revenue by focusing on organic growth and acquisition of new domestic customers by offering both local and lower cost off shore end-to-end solutions and expansion of our services (iv) and investing into technology by becoming an incubator to technology innovators.  

Our future success is likely dependent on our ability to attain additional capital to support growth and ultimately, upon its ability to reach profitability and then maintain that profitability.  There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining any such financing, or that it will be able to generate sufficient positive cash flow from operations.  The successful outcome of these or any future activities cannot be determined at this time and there is no assurance that if achieved, we will have sufficient funds to execute its business plans. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.  



2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.


Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or GAAP, in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or excluded pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. Accordingly, our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in our view, of a normal recurring nature and necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period. Interim results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year; such full year results may be less favorable.


In preparing our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, management has evaluated subsequent events through the financial statement issuance date. We believe that although the disclosures contained herein are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading, our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on April 15, 2010.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


We maintain the majority of its cash accounts at a commercial bank. The total cash balance is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per commercial bank. For purposes of the statement of cash flows we consider all cash and highly liquid investments with initial maturities of one year or less to be cash equivalents.

Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates may be materially different from actual financial results. Significant estimates include the recoverability of long-lived assets, the collection of accounts receivable and valuation of inventory and reserves.


Accounts Receivable


We grant credit to its customers located within the United States of America; and do not require collateral. Our ability to collect receivables is affected by economic fluctuations in the geographic areas and industries served by us.


Reserves for un-collectable amounts are provided, based on past experience and a specific analysis of the accounts.  Although we expect to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts. As of September 30, 2010, we had a reserve for potentially un-collectable accounts of $15,000.  Five (5) customers accounted for approximately 79% of accounts receivable at September 30, 2010 and one customer accounted for 32% of the accounts receivable balance. Our trade accounts primarily represent unsecured receivables.  Historically, our bad debt write-offs related to these trade accounts have been insignificant.


Inventory


Inventories are valued at the lower of weighted average cost or market value.   Our industry experiences changes in technology, changes in market value and availability of raw materials, as well as changing customer demand.  We make provisions for estimated excess and obsolete inventories based on regular audits and cycle counts of our on-hand inventory levels and forecasted customer demands and at times additional provisions are made.  Any inventory write offs are charged to the reserve account. As of September 30, 2010, we had a reserve for potentially obsolete inventory of $350,000.  


Property and Equipment


Property and equipment are stated at cost. Assets held under capital leases are recorded at lease inception at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair market value of the related assets.  We follow the practice of capitalizing property and equipment purchased over $5,000.  The cost of ordinary maintenance and repairs is charged to operations. Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the related assets:


Furniture and fixtures

3 to 7 years

Equipment

7 to 10 years

Leasehold improvements

2 years (life of the lease)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) – (Continued)



Long –Lived Assets


Our management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of long lived assets over their remaining lives can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of long-lived asset impairment if any, is measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which long-lived assets impairment is determined by management. There can be no assurance however, that market conditions will not change or demand for our services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.


Revenue Recognition


Revenue from product and services are recognized at the time goods are shipped or services are provided to the customer, with an appropriate provision for returns and allowances. Terms are generally FOB origination with the right of inspection and acceptance. We have not experienced a material amount of rejected or damaged product.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The carrying amount of accounts payable and accrued expenses are considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.


Other Comprehensive Income


We have no material components of other comprehensive income (loss) and accordingly, net loss is equal to comprehensive loss in all periods.


Net Profit / (Loss) per Common Share      


Basic profit / (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  As of September 30, 2010, we had outstanding common shares of 184,638,320 used in the calculation of basic earnings per share.  Basic Weighted average common shares and equivalents at for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, was 184,638,320.  As of September 30, 2010, we had outstanding warrants to purchase 14,247,330 additional common shares, options to purchase 1,103,861 additional common shares and shares to be issued of 3,250,000, which may dilute future earnings per share. Fully diluted weighted average common shares and equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, was 203,239,511

Research and Development :


We are curtailing our research and development and focusing our business on its core business of electronics contract manufacturing.  


Research and Development Costs incurred in association with the alternative fuels technology development (which include salaries and equipment) were expensed as incurred. We expensed $0 in R&D during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.


Segment Information      


Except as identified above in the research and development section, we operate our primary business of electronics contract manufacturing.


Share Based Compensation   


The company has adopted the use of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS No. 123R) (now contained in FASB Codification Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation ), which supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and its related implementation guidance and eliminates the alternative to use Opinion 25’s intrinsic value method of accounting that was provided in Statement 123 as originally issued. This Statement requires an entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of an equity instruments, which includes grants of stock options and stock warrants, based on the fair value of the award, measured at the grant date, (with limited exceptions). Under this standard, the fair value of each award is estimated on the grant date, using an option-pricing model that meets certain requirements. We use the Black- Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of our equity awards, including stock options and warrants. The Black-Scholes model meets the requirements of Topic 718; however the fair values generated may not reflect their actual fair values, as it does not consider certain factors, such as vesting requirements, employee attrition and transferability limitations. The Black-Scholes model valuation is affected by our stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. We estimate the expected volatility and estimated life of our stock options at grant date based on historical volatility; however, due to the thinly traded nature of our stock, we have chosen to use an average of the annual volatility of like companies in our industry. For the “risk-free interest rate”, we use the Constant Maturity Treasury rate on 90 day government securities. The term is equal to the time until the option expires. The dividend yield is not applicable, as the company has not paid any dividends, nor do we anticipate paying them in the foreseeable future. The fair value of our restricted stock is based on the market value of our free trading common stock, on the grant date calculated using a 20 trading day average. At the time of grant, the share based-compensation expense is recognized in our financial statements based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest using historical employee attrition rates and the expense is reduced accordingly.  It is also adjusted to account for the restricted and thinly traded nature of the shares.  The expense is reviewed and adjusted in subsequent periods if actual attrition differs from those estimates.

PROBE MANUFACTURING, INC.


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) – (Continued)



We re-evaluate the assumptions used to value our share-based awards on a quarterly basis and if changes warrant different assumptions, the share-based compensation expense could vary significantly from the amount expensed in the past. We may be required to adjust any remaining share-based compensation expense, based on any additions, cancellations or adjustments to the share based awards. The expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award—the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service.   For the nine months ended, September 30, 2010 and 2009, we recognized $4,779 and $6,175 respectively, in share based expense, due to the issuance of our options and warrants.  We also had $664 in non-vested expense to be recognized over the next year.  We also recognized $16,250 in share based expense due to the authorization to issue 3,250,000 of common shares to key individuals, which were unissued as of September 30, 2010.


Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109 (now contained in FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes), which requires the asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities measured using enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when differences are expected to reverse. As of September 30, 2010, we had a net operating loss carry forward of $(329,576) and a deferred tax asset of $112,056 using the statutory rate of 34%. The deferred tax asset may be recognized in future periods, not to exceed 20 years.  However, due to the uncertainty of our ability to operate as a going concern, we have not booked any deferred tax asset as a result.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation

 

Overview


Probe Manufacturing, Inc. was founded in 1995.  Probe is a high quality global provider of electronics, design, manufacturing and Services Company. We provide a range of engineering, manufacturing and integrated supply chain services to companies who design and market electronic products, original equipment manufacturers (OEM). Currently, our revenue is generated from sales of our services primarily to customers in the medical device, aerospace, alternative fuel and industrial products manufacturers.  Probe's business services include new product introduction, collaborative design, materials management, product manufacturing, product testing and product warranty repair, and end-of-life support. Because our core business is a service company, we’re impacted by our customer’s ability to appropriately predict market demand for their products. While we work with our customers to understand their demand needs, we are removed from the actual end-market served by our customers. Consequently determining future trends and estimates of activity can be very difficult.


On August 13, 2008 the issuer entered a definitive agreement for the sale and purchase of business assets of Solar Masters.  Solar Masters is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Probe.  Solar Masters is an importer and distributor of solar powered products. The purchase price of the assets was: $2,719.65 in cash payable to Solar Masters, LLC. plus 250,000 shares of Probe common stock valued at $.40 each which equals to  $100,000.00,  for a total of $102719.65.  Solar Masters, inc. was formed and is our wholly owned subsidiary. The assets of Solar Masters included $10,500 of inventory, the web site the rights to the name Solar Masters and the customer base.  The allocation to the purchase price was $10,500.00 in inventory and $92,219.65 in goodwill under Solar Masters, Inc.  


The main product line of Solar Masters consists of various solar powered barricade lights.  Solar Masters also offers a solar powered battery charger, solar powered outdoor lighting and a solar powered flashlight.  It is the intent of Solar Masters to grow the product line as it sees demand for various other products.


On July 13, 2009 we entered into a stock sale agreement with Solar Masters Acquisition Company, to sell its entire interest in its investment in Solar Masters, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary) for $35,000, consisting of a Note Receivable for $25,000 and the assumption of $10,000 (see Note 13).  This resulted in a loss on sale of investment of $190,464.

Plan of Operations


We had seen a dramatic drop in revenue beginning in the fourth quarter of 2008 and continuing through September 30, 2009.  We have made significant expense cuts as a direct result of this drop in revenue.  In addition to the steps discussed below, we  have initiated a major sales push in an attempt to gain new revenue; however no guarantees can be made as to whether or not we will be successful in winning the quoted business or if it will be able to keep its existing business.


Management is taking the following steps to address this situation: (a) to improve operational efficiencies by: (i) global expansion of our material sourcing and reducing our direct cost of materials (ii) by creating a strategic alliance with global suppliers in lower cost regions and outsourcing some of our end-to-end services (iii) by making a settlement with our note holders (iv) increase revenue by focusing on organic growth and acquisition of new domestic customers by offering both local and lower cost off shore end-to-end solutions (v) and investing into technology by becoming an incubator to technology innovators.  

Our future success is likely dependent on its ability to attain additional capital to support growth and ultimately, upon its ability to reach profitability and then maintain that profitability.  There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining any such financing, or that it will be able to generate sufficient positive cash flow from operations.  The successful outcome of these or any future activities cannot be determined at this time and there is no assurance that if achieved, we will have sufficient funds to execute its business plans. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.  


On June 17, 2009, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with KB Development Group, LLC. to sell 152,000,000 shares of our common stock for $120,000.  Concurrently; we entered into Settlement agreements with each of our note holders to settle the outstanding notes payable for $120,000 and the assumption of a $10,000 note by Solar Masters.  Subsequently; between July 13, 2009 and July 27, 2009 all of the notes were paid and settled, which resulted in a realized gain of $708,708 and a reduction in our notes payable of $840,203.   


On July 13, 2009, we entered into a stock sale agreement with Solar Masters Acquisition Company, to sell its entire interest in Solar Masters, Inc. (a wholly owned subsidiary) for $35,000, consisting of a Note Receivable for $25,000 and the assumption of $10,000 in notes payable referenced above.  This resulted in a loss on sale of investment of $190,464.


On July 9, 1997 and December 21, 1997, we entered into two lease agreements, with Crocker capital, which subsequently assigned the leases to The CIT Group.  In September 2004, we had outstanding balances of $457,604 and $556,293. As of June 23, 2010 the outstanding balance was $260,960.


On June 23, 2010 we entered into an agreement with CIT to settle the balance in full for $70,000, as a result we realized a gain of $190,960.  As of September 30, 2010 the balance owed on this lease is zero.


Summary of Results:


For the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, we had a net profit of $243,214 (which includes a gain from the CIT debt settlement of $190,960) compared to net profit of $132,877 which included a Gain from debt settlement of $708,707 and a loss from sale of subsidiary of $(190,466) for the same period in 2009.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, our revenue was $2,005,237 compared to $1,850,332 for the same period in 2009.  Sales in 2009, they were on a steep decline from $790, 470 in the first quarter to $544,357 in the third quarter of 2009, which included a one time sale of customer specific inventory of $166,035.  However in 2010 the sales are on an increase from $302, 809 in the fourth quarter of 2009 to $487,506 in the first quarter of 2010 to $766, 905 in the second quarter of 2010 and $763,561 in the third quarter of 2010.  This is mainly due to the return of 4 customers that had left in 2009 and the increase in business in existing accounts.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, our Administrative expense $498,423 compared to $741,430 for the same period in 2009.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, our operating income was $60,204 compared to an operating loss of $(353,732) for the same period in 2009.

Critical Accounting Policies and basis of presentation


Our accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and, therefore, omit or condense certain footnotes and other information normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  It is suggested that these condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's audited financial statements on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Company on April 15, 2010.


We follow United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Certain of the principles involve selection among alternatives and choices of methods, which are described in the footnotes to our unaudited financial statements.  


Cash and Cash Equivalents



Page 30 of 41


Table o f contents



We maintain the majority of its cash accounts at a commercial bank. The total cash balance is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per commercial bank. For purposes of the statement of cash flows we consider all cash and highly liquid investments with initial maturities of one year or less to be cash equivalents.


Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates may be materially different from actual financial results. Significant estimates include the recoverability of long-lived assets, the collection of accounts receivable and valuation of inventory and reserves.


Accounts Receivable


We grant credit to its customers located within the United States of America; and do not require collateral. Our ability to collect receivables is affected by economic fluctuations in the geographic areas and industries served by us.


Reserves for un-collectable amounts are provided, based on past experience and a specific analysis of the accounts.  Although we expect to collect amounts due, actual collections may differ from the estimated amounts. As of September 30, 2010, we had a reserve for potentially un-collectable accounts of $15,000.  Five (5) customers accounted for approximately 79% of accounts receivable at September 30, 2010 and one customer accounted for 32% of the accounts receivable balance. Our trade accounts primarily represent unsecured receivables.  Historically, our bad debt write-offs related to these trade accounts have been insignificant.


Inventory


Inventories are valued at the lower of weighted average cost or market value.   Our industry experiences changes in technology, changes in market value and availability of raw materials, as well as changing customer demand.  We make provisions for estimated excess and obsolete inventories based on regular audits and cycle counts of our on-hand inventory levels and forecasted customer demands and at times additional provisions are made.  Any inventory write offs are charged to the reserve account. As of September 30, 2010, we had a reserve for potentially obsolete inventory of $350,000.  


Property and Equipment


Property and equipment are stated at cost. Assets held under capital leases are recorded at lease inception at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair market value of the related assets.  We follow the practice of capitalizing property and equipment purchased over $5,000.  The cost of ordinary maintenance and repairs is charged to operations. Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the related assets:


Furniture and fixtures

3 to 7 years

Equipment

7 to 10 years

Leasehold improvements

2 years (life of the lease)



Page 31 of 41


Table o f contents


 

Long –Lived Assets


Our management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of long lived assets over their remaining lives can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of long-lived asset impairment if any, is measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which long-lived assets impairment is determined by management. There can be no assurance however, that market conditions will not change or demand for our services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.


Revenue Recognition


Revenue from product and services are recognized at the time goods are shipped or services are provided to the customer, with an appropriate provision for returns and allowances. Terms are generally FOB origination with the right of inspection and acceptance. We have not experienced a material amount of rejected or damaged product.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The carrying amount of accounts payable and accrued expenses are considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.


Other Comprehensive Income


We have no material components of other comprehensive income (loss) and accordingly, net loss is equal to comprehensive loss in all periods.


Net Profit / (Loss) per Common Share      


Basic profit / (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  As of September 30, 2010, we had outstanding common shares of 184,638,320 used in the calculation of basic earnings per share.  Basic Weighted average common shares and equivalents at for the nine months ended September 30, 2010,  was 184,638,320.  As of September 30, 2010, we had outstanding warrants to purchase 14,247,330 additional common shares, options to purchase 1,103,861 additional common shares and shares to be issued of 3,250,000, which may dilute future earnings per share. Fully diluted weighted average common shares and equivalents for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, was 203,239,511


Research and Development :


We are curtailing our research and development and focusing our business on its core business of electronics contract manufacturing.  


Research and Development Costs incurred in association with the alternative fuels technology development (which include salaries and equipment) were expensed as incurred. We expensed $0 in R&D during the nine months ended September 30, 2010.


Segment Information      


Except as identified above in the research and development section, we operate our primary business of electronics contract manufacturing.

Share Based Compensation   


The company has adopted the use of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS No. 123R) (now contained in FASB Codification Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation ), which supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and its related implementation guidance and eliminates the alternative to use Opinion 25’s intrinsic value method of accounting that was provided in Statement 123 as originally issued. This Statement requires an entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of an equity instruments, which includes grants of stock options and stock warrants, based on the fair value of the award, measured at the grant date, (with limited exceptions). Under this standard, the fair value of each award is estimated on the grant date, using an option-pricing model that meets certain requirements. We use the Black- Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of our equity awards, including stock options and warrants. The Black-Scholes model meets the requirements of Topic 718; however the fair values generated may not reflect their actual fair values, as it does not consider certain factors, such as vesting requirements, employee attrition and transferability limitations. The Black-Scholes model valuation is affected by our stock price and a number of assumptions, including expected volatility, expected life, risk-free interest rate and expected dividends. We estimate the expected volatility and estimated life of our stock options at grant date based on historical volatility; however, due to the thinly traded nature of our stock, we have chosen to use an average of the annual volatility of like companies in our industry. For the “risk-free interest rate”, we use the Constant Maturity Treasury rate on 90 day government securities. The term is equal to the time until the option expires. The dividend yield is not applicable, as the company has not paid any dividends, nor do we anticipate paying them in the foreseeable future. The fair value of our restricted stock is based on the market value of our free trading common stock, on the grant date calculated using a 20 trading day average. At the time of grant, the share based-compensation expense is recognized in our financial statements based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest using historical employee attrition rates and the expense is reduced accordingly.  It is also adjusted to account for the restricted and thinly traded nature of the shares.  The expense is reviewed and adjusted in subsequent periods if actual attrition differs from those estimates.



We re-evaluate the assumptions used to value our share-based awards on a quarterly basis and if changes warrant different assumptions, the share-based compensation expense could vary significantly from the amount expensed in the past. We may be required to adjust any remaining share-based compensation expense, based on any additions, cancellations or adjustments to the share based awards. The expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award—the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service.   For the nine months ended, September 30, 2010 and 2009, we recognized $4,779 and $6,175 respectively, in share based expense, due to the issuance of our options and warrants.  We also had $664 in non-vested expense to be recognized over the next year.  We also recognized $16,250 in share based expense due to the authorization to issue 3,250,000 of common shares to key individuals, which were unissued as of September 30, 2010.


Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109 (now contained in FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes), which requires the asset and liability approach to accounting for income taxes.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities measured using enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when differences are expected to reverse. As of September 30, 2010, we had a net operating loss carry forward of $(329,576) and a deferred tax asset of $112,056 using the statutory rate of 34%. The deferred tax asset may be recognized in future periods, not to exceed 20 years.  However, due to the uncertainty of our ability to operate as a going concern, we have not booked any deferred tax asset as a result.

Net Sales 


For the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, our revenue was $2,005,237 compared to $1,850,332 for the same period in 2009.  Sales in 2009, they were on a steep decline from $790, 470 in the first quarter to $544,357 in the third quarter of 2009, which included a one time sale of customer specific inventory of $166,035.  However in 2010 the sales are on an increase from $302, 809 in the fourth quarter of 2009 to $487,506 in the first quarter of 2010 to $766, 905 in the second quarter of 2010 and $763,561 in the third quarter of 2010.  This is mainly due to the return of 4 customers that had left in 2009 and the increase in business in existing accounts.


Major Customers


Our top 5 customers accounted for approximately 6% of our net sales for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, compared to 76%, for the same period in 2009. We believe that our ability to grow our core business depends on increasing sales to existing customers, and on successfully attracting new customers. Customer contracts can be canceled and volume levels can be changed or delayed based on our customer’s performance and the end users’ markets which we have no control over. The timely replacement of delayed, canceled or reduced orders with new business cannot be ensured. In addition, we cannot assume that any of our current customers will continue to utilize our services. Consequently, our results of operations may be materially adversely affected.

Table o f contents


Gross Profit 


For the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, our gross profits were 29% from 21% in the same period in 2009.   This was caused primarily due to the fixed portions of our direct labor (in 2009) in relation to the severe drop in sales This was addressed in the remainder of 2009 and the first quarter of 2010. Our gross profits could vary from period to period and is affected by a number of factors, including product mix, production efficiencies, component availability and costs, pricing, competition, customer requirements and unanticipated restructuring or inventory charges and potential scrap.  


For the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, our cost of goods sold was 71% compared to 79% for the same period in 2009, mainly due to the decrease in direct and indirect labor as a percent of the sales.  


Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses 


For the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, our SG&A expense was 25% compared to 40% for the same period in 2009.  This increase is primarily due to the decrease in revenue.  We have made adjustments to decrease SG&A expense.


Net Income/ (Loss) from operations


For the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, our net income from operations was 3% compared to a net loss of (19%) for the same period in 2009.


For the nine month period ended September 30, 2010, our interest expense was ($7,950) compared to ($31,635) for the same period in 2009, this was to due to the settlement agreements referenced in Note 12.

Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of September 30, 2010, were effective.


(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II--OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.

 Legal Proceedings


We are not presently subject to any material litigation nor, to our knowledge, is any material litigation threatened against us, which if determined unfavorably to us, would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.


There are no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in our 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on April 15, 2010, except as disclosed below.


RISKS ABOUT OUR BUSINESS


If we cannot obtain additional financing and/or reduce our operating costs sufficiently, and the effect of other unknown adverse factors could threaten our existence as a going concern.  Therefore, we may have to curtail operations and may ultimately cease to exist.  


The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Although; for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we had a net profit of $243,214, a working capital surplus of $37,535 and a shareholder surplus of $177,357;  we had an accumulated deficit of (329,576) our ability to operate as a going concern is still dependent upon our ability (1) to obtain sufficient debt and/or equity capital and/or (2) continue to generate positive cash flow from operations and maintain profitability.



We have an accumulated deficit and may incur additional losses; therefore we may not be able to obtain the additional financing needed for working capital, capital expenditures and to meet our debt service obligations.


As of September 30, 2010, we had current liabilities of $726,077. Our debt could limit our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, or other purposes in the future, as needed; to plan for, or react to, changes in technology and in our business and competition; and to react in the event of an economic downturn.


We may not be able to meet our debt service obligations. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow or obtain funds for required payments, or if we fail to comply with covenants in our revolving lines of credit, we will be in default.
