PART I

General

Vyrex Corporation (“Vyrex” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada in 1991, and operated as a research and development stage company seeking to discover and develop pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and cosmeceuticals for the treatment and prevention of respiratory, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases and conditions associated with aging (the “Biotech Business”). The Biotech Business was unsuccessful and, as a result, the Company ceased material operations relating to that business in October 2005; however, the Company retained its intellectual property rights and contract rights relating to that business (the “Biotech IP”). On October 17, 2005, the Company reincorporated in Delaware.

On February 11, 2008, Vyrex, PowerVerde, Inc. (“PowerVerde”) and Vyrex Acquisition Corporation (“VAC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vyrex, all Delaware corporations, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, on February 12, 2008, VAC merged with and into PowerVerde, with PowerVerde remaining as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vyrex (the “Merger”). As consideration for the Merger, as of the closing of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of common stock of PowerVerde was converted into the right to receive 1.2053301 shares of the common stock of Vyrex and each share of VAC was converted into one share of PowerVerde common stock. As a result of the Merger, the former shareholders of PowerVerde hold 95% of the common stock of Vyrex. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, PowerVerde paid $233,000 in accounts payable and other liabilities owed by Vyrex.

On August 6, 2008, at a special meeting of shareholders, Vyrex’s name was changed to “PowerVerde, Inc.” Simultaneously, the name of our operating company, PowerVerde, Inc., was changed to “PowerVerde Systems, Inc.”

In March 2009, we sold all of the Biotech IP to Dr. Edward Gomez, a pre-Merger investor in PowerVerde and now a shareholder of the Company. In exchange for the assignment of the Biotech IP to him, Dr. Gomez agreed to (i) pay all future costs and expenses relating to the Biotech IP, including, but not limited to, patent fees, license fees and legal fees, and (ii) pay to the Company 20% of all net revenues received from the sale and/or licensing of any of the Biotech IP.

Please note that the information provided below relates to the combined company after the Merger. Since our operations after the Merger consist solely of PowerVerde operations, except where the context otherwise requires, references throughout this Report hereafter to “PowerVerde,” “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” will mean or refer to PowerVerde’s business and operations.

The Company is a Delaware corporation formed in March 2007 by its two principal owners and officers: George Konrad; and Fred Barker. The Company was formed in order to further develop, commercialize and market a series of unique electric generating power systems designed to produce electrical power with zero emissions or waste byproducts, based on a patented pressure-driven motor. The design of the motor was conceived by Mr. Barker in January 2001. Mr. Barker previously had a working relationship with Mr. Konrad and enlisted Mr. Konrad and his manufacturing expertise, together with Mr. Barker’s own engineering expertise, to co-develop the motor.

An initial prototype of the motor was created and tested in early 2002, and, based on positive test results, Messrs. Barker and Konrad concluded that the concept could lead to a commercial product. A new design was developed in early 2007, which resulted in a motor that produced more torque and horsepower, as well as being easier to mass produce. The prototype was tested extensively, and substantial tooling and engineering with CAM/CNC programming was completed at the facility of Mr. Konrad’s company, Arizona Research and Development (“ARD”), for the eventual mass production model.

Based on data learned from these earlier prototypes, PowerVerde has manufactured three 25/50kW motors and has been testing these devices on a more powerful and advanced organic rankine cycle (ORC) system designed and built by PowerVerde. During 2009, the Company also built and tested a 100kW pressure-driven motor at another machining and manufacturing facility, Global Machine Works, in Arlington, WA. These two related but distinct systems are designed for two different markets. The 25/50kW system uses low-grade heat as a fuel source, expanding a working fluid thereby driving the motor/generator, while the 100kW system (without ORC), uses wasted energy (pressure) from natural gas pipeline and wellhead infrastructures to drive the motor/generator and create electric power.

Table of Contents

We expect to complete the final design of our waste heat/solar unit by the third quarter of 2010 or sooner and install systems for commercial beta testing before the end of the current year. If the beta testing is successful, sales could commence during the last quarter of 2010 or early 2011. A second generation natural gas pipeline/wellhead system is being designed, and we anticipate that this unit will be built and tested in the second half of 2010. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to successfully complete the final design and testing of our systems or that we will be able to commercialize them and commence sales.

In early 2010, PowerVerde’s Board created two separate divisions: waste heat/solar organic rankine cycle powered systems; and gas pipeline/wellhead waste energy recovery systems. Because the markets and customers for these two systems are completely different and the design and manufacturing are geographically separated, we believe that this bifurcation will result in a more streamlined and efficient business structure.

In March 2009, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent (the “LOI”) with Keahole Solar Power LLC (“KSP”), a subsidiary of Sopogy, Inc. (“Sopogy”), based in Honolulu, Hawaii. Sopogy has developed a modular and scalable solar energy solution designed for on-site energy generation in the range of 250kW-20MW. The LOI reflects the parties’ intent to work together on development of smaller Sopogy systems in the 50kW to 500kW range. Under the terms contemplated by the LOI, we would install, at our own expense, a 25/50kW PowerVerde motor for use at KSP’s solar thermal power generation facility at the Natural Energy Laboratory of Hawaii located in Kona, Hawaii. We would operate the system and the parties would share performance data for five years. We believe that the contemplated 25/50kW system may be beta test ready by the fourth quarter of 2010 or sooner. While we are optimistic about our relationship with Sopogy and KSP, there can be no assurance that we will ever enter into a definitive agreement with Sopogy or KSP, that we will ever install our motor as contemplated in the LOI or that we will ever generate any revenues from this relationship.

Messrs. Barker and Konrad together obtained U.S. Patent No. 6,840,151 for a “push-push type fluid pressure actuated motor,” which was issued on January 11, 2005. On June 6, 2007, Messrs. Barker and Konrad and the Company’s predecessor, PowerVerde, LLC, permanently and exclusively assigned to PowerVerde all rights to the patent and the other intellectual property relating to the PowerVerde systems. On July 16, 2008, Mr. Barker filed provisional U.S. Patent application No. 61/081,298 for a “system to produce electricity using waste energy in natural gas pipelines.” This application was assigned to the Company; however, it was abandoned in 2009 because we decided to replace it with a new and improved provisional patent application regarding the natural gas pipeline technology. Mr. Barker filed on behalf of PowerVerde a new provisional patent application regarding this technology on April 7, 2010. On October 17, 2008, Mr. Konrad and Mr. Brian K. Gray filed U.S. Patent application No. 12,253,580 for a “low temperature organic rankine cycle system.” This application was assigned to the Company. There can be no assurance that any further patents will be issued to us.

We plan to manufacture and market the PowerVerde power systems to end users in the U.S. market; however, we have not yet hired any employees. We currently contract for human resources on an as-needed basis. An international division may be formed to coordinate global OEM licensing partnerships. We have not yet entered into any formal relationship for distribution or marketing; however, discussions with certain manufacturers of integrated components and service providers in the oil and natural gas industry have begun. There can be no assurance that any distribution or marketing agreements will be successfully consummated.

Product Description

The 2007 advanced generation PowerVerde motor, with its related organic rankine cycle (ORC) system, produced 10kW of net power. Our larger 25/50kW waste heat/solar design is a next generation system This system was designed to be installed in single- or multiple-stacked units for businesses, factories, schools, hospitals, ships and other users of electric power. These non-combustion motors are fueled by heat and, via an ORC related system, create a pressure source powering the PowerVerde motor/generator while emitting zero carbon emissions or waste stream byproducts. This system operates with relatively low pressure (100-250psi) producing substantial torque and horsepower. The second PowerVerde system is designed to operate on wellhead or natural gas pipeline infrastructure and lacks the ORC component, but uses wasted latent energy (pressure) inherent in “city gate” letdowns or wellheads as its fuel source. Both systems are designed to operate on pressure. The latter system is designed to operate on relatively high pressure (1000 psi) associated with pipeline or wellhead infrastructure. The PowerVerde gas expansion and pressure driven motors have been tested over the past three years, and we believe that they have demonstrated the durability and reliability necessary to function as commercial renewable electric power generation systems. In 2008, as noted above, we decided to scale the ORC waste heat/solar system to 25/50kW and the natural gas pressure motor (without ORC) to 100kW. We anticipate, and have already designed systems, that will be scaled even larger in the future.

Our ORC system requires:

We have built and tested the next generation 25/50kW and ORC system, and believe that the overall design meets or exceeds performance parameters. We believe that we have successfully enhanced the system’s power capacity to 25kW or more of gross power. Our preliminary testing will continue through mid-2010 and we expect to perform a commercial beta test in the second half of 2010.

PowerVerde’s other electric power system, the gas pressure motor, is engineered to operate on any adequate pressure source without an ORC. This 100kW system expands wasted energy or pressure from natural gas pipelines or wellheads into mechanical energy and requires:

We have built a 100kW system, and hope to build a next generation 150kW system in the second half of 2010. It is anticipated the first commercial beta test will be conducted on wellhead infrastructure sometime in the latter half of 2010.

Government Regulations and Incentives

We believe that the time is right for the PowerVerde systems. Regulatory proposals to limit greenhouse gases are moving forward. One such measure would be a carbon tax placed on fuels in proportion to their carbon content. Another would be a tax on oil. Yet another would be a “cap and trade” system. All of these would drive up the price of electricity from fossil fuel sources, yet have no impact on carbon-free renewable sources such as those offered by us; however, due to the weak economy and political opposition, there can be no assurance that any of these measures will be implemented.

Governments, utilities, businesses, and consumers alike are acutely aware of the negative effects of pollution and use of fossil fuels. Fossil fuel-based emissions contribute to serious health and environmental conditions such as acid rain, particulate pollution, nitrogen deposition, and global climate change. Consequently, government agencies at the federal, state and local levels have implemented and proposed various economic incentives in the form of tax credits, rebates, deductions, accelerated depreciation and other subsidies designed to enhance the use of energy-efficient and clean power sources. We believe that these incentives will have a substantial positive impact on demand for the PowerVerde systems; however, there can be no assurance that, even with these incentives, our systems will be economically competitive or that the incentives will continue to be available.

As a result of the US Government’s economic stimulus package approved in February 2009, we have applied for federal grants, loans and/or programs designed to assist development of renewable “green” energy sources, and we have retained specialized consultants to assist in this endeavor; however, we have not yet been successful in these ongoing efforts, and there can be no assurance that we will ever receive any governmental assistance.

Competition

We face substantial competition from numerous other companies, most of whom have financial and other resources substantially greater than those of the Company. The Company's competition is worldwide, ranging from solo inventors and small businesses all the way to major utility companies and multinational corporations, all of whom are attempting to design, develop and market clean and efficient methods for the generation and delivery of electricity. This competition is expected to increase due to pressures arising from anticipated high prices of oil and natural gas, environmental concerns and the increased availability of governmental incentives and subsidies. These competitors may prove more successful in offering similar products and/or may offer alternative products which prove superior in performance and/or more popular with potential customers than our products. Our ability to commercialize our products and grow and achieve profitability in accordance with our business plan will depend on our ability to satisfy our customers and withstand increasing competition by providing high-quality products at reasonable prices. There can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve or maintain a successful competitive position.

Investing in our common stock is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Prospective investors should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties and all other information contained or referred to in this Report before making an investment decision. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently deem immaterial, also may become important factors that affect us. Our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by some or all of the matters described below or other currently unknown factors. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all of your investment.

Risks Related to the Current Economic Crisis

The current crisis in general economic and market conditions and the volatility and disruption in the financial and capital markets has impacted us and could materially and adversely affect our business and financial results in future periods.

The United States economy is currently suffering from very unfavorable economic conditions, including a weak recovery from a severe recession in the general economy and a financial crisis impairing the banking system and the financial markets. These negative conditions could persist or become even worse. General economic conditions have deteriorated due to reduced credit resulting from this financial crisis, resulting in slower economic activity, concerns about inflation, deflation and government debt and deficits, volatility in energy prices, decreased consumer confidence, reduced corporate profits and capital spending, adverse business conditions and liquidity concerns in our markets and other adverse effects on our potential customers and markets. These poor economic conditions have made it very difficult for us to raise the capital we need to complete the development and testing of our products so that we can begin sales. In the event that we are able to begin sales of our products, these poor economic conditions may adversely affect our business and our financial condition and results of operations by extending the length of the sales cycle and causing potential customers to delay, defer or decline to make purchases of our products due to limitations on their capital expenditures and the adverse effects of the economy and the credit markets on them.

The weak economy and financial crisis are projected by many economic experts to continue or deteriorate further throughout 2010 or longer. These conditions may make it extremely difficult for our customers, our vendors and us to accurately forecast and plan future business activities. We cannot predict the timing, strength or duration of this current financial crisis and weak economy or of a subsequent economic recovery, or the effects thereof on our customers and our markets. Our results of operations may be negatively impacted in future periods and experience substantial fluctuations from period to period as a consequence of these factors, and such conditions and other factors affecting capital spending may affect the timing of orders from major customers. These factors could adversely affect our ability to meet our capital requirements, support our working capital requirements and growth objectives, maintain our existing or secure new financing arrangements, or otherwise materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

An increase in interest rates or lending rates or tightening of the supply of capital in the global financial markets could make it difficult for end-users to finance the cost of a PowerVerde system and could reduce the demand for our products and/or lead to a reduction in the average selling price for our products.

We believe that, in the event that we are able to commercialize our products, many of our end-users will depend on debt financing to fund the initial capital expenditure required to purchase and install a PowerVerde system. As a result, an increase in interest rates or lending rates could make it difficult for our end-users to secure the financing necessary to purchase and install PowerVerde systems on favorable terms, or at all and thus lower demand and reduce our net sales. Due to the overall economic outlook, our end-users may change their decision or change the timing of their decision to purchase and install PowerVerde systems. In addition, we believe that a significant percentage of our end-users will install PowerVerde systems as an investment, funding the initial capital expenditure through a combination of equity and debt. An increase in interest rates and/or lending rates could lower an investor’s return on investment in PowerVerde systems, or make alternative investments more attractive relative to PowerVerde systems, and, in each case, could cause these end-users to seek alternative investments. A reduction in the supply of project debt financing or equity investments could reduce the number of our projects that receive financing and thus lower demand for PowerVerde system.

Reduced growth in or the reduction, elimination or expiration of government subsidies, economic incentives and other support for renewable energy-sourced electricity applications could reduce demand for our systems.

Reduced growth in or the reduction, elimination or expiration of government subsidies, economic incentives and other support for renewable-sourced electricity may result in the diminished competitiveness of our systems relative to conventional and non-renewable sources of energy, and could materially and adversely affect our business.

In October 2008, the United States Congress extended the 30% federal investment tax credit for both residential and commercial solar installations for eight years, through December 31, 2016. On February 17, 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 was signed into law. In addition to adopting certain fiscal stimulus measures that could benefit the PowerVerde systems, this act creates a new program, through the Department of the Treasury, which provides grants equal to 30% of the cost of solar installations that are placed into service during 2009 and 2010 or that begin construction prior to December 31, 2010 and are placed into service by January 1, 2017. This grant is available in lieu of receiving the 30% federal investment tax credit. Other measures adopted by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 that could benefit renewable electricity generation include the following: (1) a Department of Energy loan guarantee program for renewable energy projects, renewable energy manufacturing facilities and electric power transmission projects and (2) a 30% investment credit for assets used to manufacture technology for the production of renewable energy.

Electric utility companies or generators of electricity from fossil fuels or other renewable energy sources could also lobby for a change in the relevant legislation in their markets to protect their revenue streams. Reduced growth in or the reduction, elimination or expiration of government subsidies and economic incentives for renewable electricity generation applications, especially those in our target markets, could cause our net sales to decline and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Existing regulations and policies and changes to these regulations and policies may present technical, regulatory and economic barriers to the purchase and use of our renewable electricity generation systems, which may significantly reduce demand for our systems.

The market for electricity generation products is heavily influenced by foreign, federal, state and local government regulations and policies concerning the electric utility industry, as well as policies promulgated by electric utilities. These regulations and policies often relate to electricity pricing and technical interconnection of customer-owned electricity generation. In the United States and in a number of other countries, these regulations and policies have been modified in the past and may be modified again in the future. These regulations and policies could deter end-user purchases of our systems.

We anticipate that our systems and their installation will be subject to oversight and regulation in accordance with national and local ordinances relating to building codes, safety, environmental protection, utility interconnection and metering and related matters. It is difficult to track the requirements of individual states and design equipment to comply with the varying standards. Any new government regulations or utility policies pertaining to our systems may result in significant additional expenses to us and our potential customers and, as a result, could cause a significant reduction in demand for our systems.

Risks Related to Our Business

We need to raise substantial additional capital to fund our business.

We will need to raise substantial additional funds. Without such additional funds, we may have to cease operations. We will require substantial additional funding for our contemplated research and development activities, commercialization of our products and ordinary operating expenses. Adequate funds for these purposes may not be available when needed or on terms acceptable to us, especially due to the ongoing weak economy and financial crisis. Insufficient funds may require us to delay or scale back our activities or to cease operations.

We face substantial competition in our industry, and we may be unable to attract customers and maintain a viable business.

We face substantial competition from numerous other companies, most of whom have financial and other resources substantially greater than ours. Our competition is worldwide, ranging from solo inventors and small businesses all the way to major utility companies and multinational corporations, all of whom are attempting to design, develop and market clean and efficient methods for the generation and delivery of electricity. This competition is expected to increase due to pressures arising from anticipated high prices of oil and natural gas, environmental concerns and the availability of governmental incentives and subsidies. These competitors may prove more successful in offering similar products and/or may offer alternative products which prove superior in performance and/or more popular with potential customers than our products. Our ability to commercialize our products and grow and achieve profitability in accordance with our business plan will depend on our ability to satisfy our customers and withstand increasing competition by providing high-quality products at reasonable prices. There can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve or maintain a successful competitive position.

Our success is dependent on the services of our key management and personnel.

Our success will depend in large part upon the skill and efforts of our founders and executive officers, George Konrad and Fred Barker, and other key personnel who may be hired. Loss of any such personnel, whether due to resignation, death, and disability or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, Messrs. Konrad and Barker do not intend to work for PowerVerde on a full-time basis, as they have substantial other business activities. They intend to dedicate the time they deem appropriate to meet PowerVerde’s needs; however, there can be no assurance that they will be willing or able to dedicate such time and attention as would maximize PowerVerde’s chances for success.

We have a limited operating history.

We have only a limited operating history. We have yet to generate any revenues, and the commercial value of our products is uncertain. There can be no assurance that we will ever be profitable. Further, we are subject to all the risks inherent in a new business including, but not limited to: intense competition; lack of sufficient capital; loss of protection of proprietary technology and trade secrets; difficulties in commercializing its products, managing growth and hiring and retaining key employees; adverse changes in costs and general business and economic conditions; and the need to achieve product acceptance, to enter and develop new markets and to develop and maintain successful relationships with customers, third party suppliers and contractors.

We may have difficulty in protecting our intellectual property and may incur substantial costs to defend ourselves in patent infringement litigation.

We rely primarily on a combination of trade secrets, patents, copyright and trademark laws, and confidentiality procedures to protect our proprietary technology, which is our principal asset.

Our ability to compete effectively will depend to a large extent on our success in protecting our proprietary technology, both in the United States and abroad. There can be no assurance that (i) any patent that we apply for will be issued, (ii) any patents issued, including our existing U.S. Patent No. 6,840,151, on which our current products are based, will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented, (iii) that we will have the financial resources to enforce our patents or (iv) the patent rights granted will provide any competitive advantage. We could incur substantial costs in defending any patent infringement suits or in asserting our patent rights, including those granted by third parties, and we might not be able to afford such expenditures.

We have limited protection over our trade secrets and know-how.

Although we have entered into confidentiality and invention agreements with our key personnel, there can be no assurance that these agreements will be honored or that we will be able to protect our rights to our non-patented trade secrets and know-how effectively. There can be no assurance that competitors will not independently develop substantially equivalent or superior proprietary information and techniques or otherwise gain access to our trade secrets and know-how.

We may be unable to obtain required licenses from third-parties for product development.

We may be required to obtain licenses to patents or other proprietary rights from third parties. If we do not obtain required licenses, we could encounter delays in product development or find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring these licenses could be foreclosed.

The reduction, elimination or unavailability of contemplated government incentives may force our business plan to be changed and may materially adversely affect our business.

Our business plan relies to a significant extent on the availability of substantial federal, state and local governmental incentives for the development, production and purchase of energy-saving, environmentally-friendly products such as our systems. These incentives include, among others, tax deductions, tax credits, rebates, accelerated depreciation and government loans, grants and other subsidies. There can be no assurance that some or all of these incentives will not be substantially reduced or eliminated, nor can there be any assurance that any currently proposed incentives will actually take effect. Similarly, there can be no assurance that we will ever receive any government loans, grants or other subsidies.

Lower energy prices may hinder our ability to attract customers and be profitable.

Our products are energy-efficient electric generators which compete primarily with conventional oil and natural gas-generated electricity produced and delivered by conventional utility companies. A significant decrease in the price of oil and/or natural gas could therefore materially adversely affect our competitive position. We have already been adversely affected by the substantial drop in oil and natural gas prices since the onset of the financial crisis in September 2008.

We may be unable to purchase materials and parts on commercially reasonable terms from suppliers.

Our success will depend to a large extent on our ability to obtain a reliable supply of materials and parts from our suppliers on commercially reasonable terms. This may not prove possible due to competition, inflation, shortages, international crises, adverse economic and political conditions and business failures of suppliers or other reasons.

Our insurance may not provide adequate coverage.

Although we maintain insurance which we consider prudent, there can be no assurance that such insurance will prove adequate in the event of actual casualty losses or broader calamities such as terrorist attacks, earthquakes, financial crises, economic depressions or other catastrophic events, which are either uninsurable or not economically insurable. Any such losses could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

We may be unable to obtain or maintain insurance for our commercial products.

The design, development and manufacture of our products involve an inherent risk of product liability claims and associated adverse publicity. There can be no assurance we will be able to obtain or maintain insurance for any of our proposed commercial products. Such insurance is expensive, difficult to obtain and may not be available in the future on acceptable terms or at all. We are also exposed to product liability claims in the event the use of our proposed products result in injury.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock; Liquidity Risks

Our stock price is highly volatile.

The market prices for securities of emerging and development stage companies such as ours have historically been highly volatile, and our limited history has reflected this volatility. Difficulty in raising capital as well as future announcements concerning us or our competitors, including the results of testing, technological innovations or new commercial products, government regulations, developments concerning proprietary rights, litigation or public concern as to safety of potential products developed by us or others, may have a significant adverse impact on the market price of our stock.

We do not pay dividends on our common stock, and we have no intention to do so in the future.

For the near-term, we intend to retain remaining future earnings, if any, to finance our operations and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends with respect to our common stock or may be unable to sell at a fair price.

There has been limited trading in our stock.

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCBB under the symbol “PWVI.” Since our February 2008 Merger with our predecessor Vyrex Corporation, our stock has been thinly traded, and no assurance can be given as to when, if ever, an active trading market will develop or, if developed, that it will be sustained. As a result, investors may be unable to sell their shares of our common stock.

We may issue additional shares of our stock which may dilute the value of our stock.

As a result of the Merger, we have issued to our predecessor’s shareholders 24,588,734 shares of our common stock. These shares are no longer restricted securities subject to Rule 144. The sale or availability for sale of substantial amounts of common stock in the public market under Rule 144 or otherwise could materially adversely affect the prevailing market prices of our common stock and could impair our ability to raise additional capital through the sale of our equity securities.

We may issue shares of preferred stock that could defer a change of control or dilute the interests of holders of our common stock shareholders.

Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The Board of Directors has the power to establish the dividend rates, liquidation preferences, voting rights, redemption and conversion terms and privileges with respect to any series of preferred stock. The issuance of any series of preferred stock having rights superior to those of the common stock may result in a decrease in the value or market price of the common stock and could further be used by the Board as a device to prevent a change in control favorable to the Company. Holders of preferred stock to be issued in the future may have the right to receive dividends and certain preferences in liquidation and conversion rights. The issuance of such preferred stock could make the possible takeover of the Company or the removal of management of the Company more difficult, and adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holder of the common stock, or depress the market price of the common stock.

Our common stock is covered by SEC “penny stock” rules which may make it more difficult for you to sell or dispose of our common stock.

Since we have net tangible assets of less than $1,000,000, transactions in our securities are subject to Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act which imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (generally, individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual incomes exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouses). For transactions covered by this Rule, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, this Rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities, and may affect the ability of shareholders to sell any of our securities in the secondary market.

The Commission has adopted regulations which generally define a “penny stock” to be any non-NASDAQ equity security of a small company that has a market price (as therein defined) less than $5.00 per share, or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share subject to certain exceptions, and which is not traded on any exchange or quoted on NASDAQ. For any transaction by broker-dealers involving a penny stock (unless exempt), the rules require delivery, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, of a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market. Disclosure is also required to be made about compensation payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in an account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Prospective investors are cautioned that the statements in this Report that are not descriptions of historical facts may be forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. This Report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs of our management as well as on assumptions made by and information currently available to us as of the date of this Report. When used in this Report, the words “plan,” “will,” “may,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “project” and similar expressions, as they relate to PowerVerde, are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Although PowerVerde believes these statements are reasonable, actual actions, operations and results could differ materially from those indicated by such forward-looking statements as a result of the risk factors included in this Report or other factors. We must caution, however, that this list of factors may not be exhaustive and that these or other factors, many of which are outside of our control, could have a material adverse effect on PowerVerde and our ability to achieve our objectives. All forward-looking statements attributable to PowerVerde or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above.

None.

We do not own any real property. We share use of a full-service machining and manufacturing facility located at 21615 N. 2^nd Avenue, Phoenix, Arizona, owned by Arizona Research and Development, Inc. (“ARD”), a company wholly-owned by George Konrad, the Company’s President and largest shareholder (the “ARD Facility”). We pay monthly rent of $.75 per square foot of space that we use and also pay our proportional share of the facility’s utilities. As of March 2010, we are using approximately 750 square feet at a monthly rental of approximately $565. We expect to substantially increase our use of the ARD Facility by the end of 2010, and we believe that the ARD Facility will be adequate to satisfy our needs through that time; however, in the event that we begin material sales, we may need to move to a larger facility.

We are not party to any disputes or legal proceedings at the time of this Report.

Dividends

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock, nor do we intend to declare or pay any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. Subject to the limitations described below, the holders of the Company's common stock are entitled to receive only such dividends (cash or otherwise) as may (or may not) be declared by the Company's Board of Directors.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

In connection with the February 12, 2008, Merger, Vyrex sold the following securities without registering the securities under the Securities Act: (i) 24,588,734 shares of common stock issued to former PowerVerde shareholders in connection with the Merger, (ii) 250,000 shares issued on February 11, 2008 to Don Leach in payment of Vyrex’s March 10, 2003, $200,000 promissory note held by him, (iii) 20,000 shares issued on February 11, 2008, to Richard G. McKee, Jr. for consulting services, and (iv) 5,000 shares issued on February 11, 2008, to Mary Jane Dean for financial and administrative services. These shares were issued pursuant to an exemption from registration requirements under Regulation D and/or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

All of PowerVerde’s sales of unregistered securities since inception have been made pursuant to private offerings to accredited investors. These sales, which are set forth below, were made pursuant to an exemption from registration requirements under Regulation D and/or Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Except as otherwise noted below, we paid a placement agent fee of 10% of the gross price of each offering to Martinez-Ayme Securities (“MAS”, and net proceeds were used for working capital.

From June through August 2007, PowerVerde sold to accredited investors in a private placement 4,000,000 shares of common stock (equal to 4,821,320 shares post-Merger) at a price of $.125 per share, yielding gross proceeds of $500,000.

From September 2007 to January 2008, PowerVerde sold to accredited investors in a private placement 400,000 shares of common stock (equal to 482,132 shares post-Merger) at a price of $.50 per share, yielding gross proceeds of $200,000.

From April through July 2008, PowerVerde completed a private placement of $250,000 in principal amount of Series A Promissory Notes (the “Notes”). The Notes were due on July 31, 2009, and bore interest at the rate of 10% per annum. In consideration for the purchase of the Notes, each investor received three-year warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share (25,000 shares for each $25,000 invested).

From March through October 2009, we raised $950,000 through private placements of an aggregate of 1,266,667 shares of our common stock to accredited investors at $.75 per share. The net proceeds from these offerings were $865,000. The Company paid a placement agent fee of 10% to MAS with respect to $625,000 of the gross proceeds, a finder’s fee of 6% and a placement agent fee to MAS of 4% with respect to $250,000, and there was no placement agent fee or finder’s fee with respect to $100,000 of these proceeds. The net proceeds of these offerings were used (i) to pay $81,500 principal amount of our Series A Promissory Notes due July 31, 2009, together with $8,717 in accrued interest thereon; (ii) to pay in full a $50,000 loan made by our founder and CEO, George Konrad, to the Company in 2008 (See “Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.”); and (iii) for working capital.

The remaining $168,500 principal amount of Notes, together with accrued interest thereon of $20,761, was converted in July 2009 into 378,521 shares of our common stock, reflecting a conversion price of $.50 per share.

In October 2009, we issued 75,000 shares of our common stock, valued at $56,250, to Del Mar Corporate Consulting, LLC (the “Consultant”) pursuant to a Market Awareness Consulting Agreement, dated October 20, 2009. Pursuant to this agreement, we also paid the Consultant $25,000 upon signing; however, we have declined to pay the additional $25,000 due under this agreement due to our belief that the Consultant has failed to perform under this agreement.

Table of Contents

In March 2010, we raised $110,000 through the private placement of 146,667 shares of our common stock to accredited investors at $.75 per share. Each investor received a three-year warrant to purchase stock at $.75 per share for a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of shares purchased by the investor in this offering.

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.

Critical Accounting Policies

The consolidated financial statements of PowerVerde, Inc. are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that effect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of financial statements.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

We adopted the Standards in FASB ASC Topic 740 regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. The standard prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The standard also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our financial statements. Our evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2006, 2007 and 2008, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of December 31, 2009.

We may from time to time be assessed interest or penalties by major tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to our financial results. In the event we have received an assessment for interest and/or penalties, it has been classified in the financial statements as selling, general and administrative expense.

Revenue Recognition

Licensing and royalty revenue from royalty agreements is recognized in accordance with the terms of the specific agreement, which generally includes a quarterly minimum payment by the licensee.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

The Company accounts for common stock purchase warrants in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815-10, “Derivatives and Hedging” (ASC 815-10). Based on the provisions of ASC 815-10, the Company classifies as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement, or (ii) gives the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company), or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement).

Overview

From January 1991 until October, 2005, the Company devoted substantially all of its efforts and resources to research and development related to its unsuccessful Biotech Business, in particular the study of biological oxidation and antioxidation directed to the development of potential therapeutic products for the treatment of various diseases and conditions. In the most recent years, the Company’s research focused mainly on targeted antioxidant therapeutics and nutraceuticals. The Company is a development stage company, has never generated any substantial revenue from product sales and has relied primarily on equity financing, licensing revenues, and various debt instruments for its working capital. The Company has been unprofitable since its inception.

Following the cessation of material Biotech Business operations in October 2005, the Company turned its primary focus to seeking an appropriate merger partner for its public shell. This resulted in the February 2008 Merger with Vyrex. In March 2009, we assigned our Biotech intellectual property other than our rights under existing licensing agreements (the “Biotech IP”) to an investor in exchange for his agreement to pay all future expenses relating to the Biotech IP and to pay us 20% of any net proceeds received from future sale and/or licensing of the Biotech IP. We do not expect this arrangement to generate material revenues.

Since inception, we have focused on the development and testing of our electric power systems, and since 2008 we have focused on their applicability to thermal and natural gas pipeline operations. The Company’s business is subject to significant risks, including the risks inherent in our research and development efforts, uncertainties associated with obtaining and enforcing patents and intense competition.

Except as specifically noted to the contrary, the following discussion relates only to PowerVerde since, as a result of the Merger, the only historical financial statements presented for the Company in periods following the Merger are those of the operating entity, PowerVerde.

Results of Operations

Year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008

During 2009 and 2008, we focused on the development and testing of our systems, including our next generation waste heat/solar 25/50kW ORC. We had no material revenues in either year - just $33,860 and $23,663, in Biotech IP licensing fees at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively - while we had substantial expenses due to our ongoing research and development expenses, as well as substantial administrative expenses associated with the Merger and our status as a public company. Our net loss was $890,980 in 2009 and $829,956 in 2008. Substantial net losses will continue unless and until we are able to successfully commercialize and market our products, as to which there can be no assurance.

Year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007

During 2008 and 2007, we focused on the development and testing of our systems, and in 2008 we focused on their applicability to natural gas pipeline operations. We had no material revenues in either year - just $23,663 in Biotech IP licensing fees in

2008 - while we had substantial expenses due to our ongoing research and development expenses, as well as substantial administrative expenses associated with the Merger and our status as a public company. Our net loss was $274,402 in 2007 and $829,556 in 2008. Substantial net losses will continue unless and until we are able to successfully commercialize and market our products, as to which there can be no assurance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our operations since inception through the sale of debt and equity securities. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, we had a working capital deficit of $123,692 and $339,006, respectively.

From March through October 2009, we raised $950,000 through private placements of 1,266,667 shares of our common stock to accredited investors at $.75 per share. See “Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities-Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.”

In June and July 2009, we retired our 250,000 Series A Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) through payment of $81,500 principal amount of Notes, together with $8,717 in accrued interest thereon, and conversion of the remaining $168,500 principal balance plus accrued interest of $20,761 into 378,521 shares of our common stock at a price of $.50 per share. See “Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities-Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.”

Table of Contents

By year end, we had spent all of our initial $10,203 cash balance plus most of the $950,000 raised during 2009, so that our year end cash balance was only $20,457, while our accounts payable were $151,775. Our efforts to raise additional capital during the second half of 2009 and early 2010 have been severely hampered by the financial crisis and weak economy.

In March 2010, we raised gross proceeds of $110,000 through the private placement of 146,667 shares of our common stock to accredited investors at $.75 per share. See “Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities-Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.”

We continue to seek more funding from private debt and equity investors, as well as governmental sources, as we will need to raise substantial additional capital in order to finance our plan of operations There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the necessary funds. If we do not raise the necessary funds, we will be forced to cease operations.

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

The financial statements of the Company and other information required by this Item are set forth herein in a separate section beginning with the Index to the Financial Statements on page F-1.

There has been no change in or disagreements with accountants.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Chief Executive Officer and President, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate control over financial reporting. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements.

All internal controls over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention of overriding of controls. Therefore, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Further, because of changes in conditions, the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting may vary over time. Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may also fail to prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

13

Table of Contents

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2009, our internal controls over financial reporting were effective.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no significant changes in internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2009 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

None.

PART III

In connection with the Merger, all of the prior officers and directors of the Company (G. Dale Garlow, Sheldon S. Hendler, M.D., Ph.D., Thomas K. Larson, Jr., and Richard G. McKee, Jr.) resigned and George Konrad, Fred Barker and Richard H. Davis were appointed to the Board. As a result of the foregoing, our Board of Directors now consists of three members.

The names of our current officers and directors, as well as certain information about them are set forth below:

George Konrad. Mr. Konrad is in charge of our operations. His company, ARD, is involved in various advanced technology projects. ARD is a full-service R & D machine shop with CNC and CAD-CAM capabilities. Mr. Konrad has substantially improved the design of the JimmyJib, a camera boom that is used by cinematographers all over the world. This boom has electronic remote capabilities and is utilized at most movie locations and major sporting events around the world. ARD manufactures all of the major components for the JimmyJib and turns out thousands of parts each month.

Fred Barker. Mr. Barker directs our engineering activities. He is a graduate of the University of Washington, with a degree in mechanical engineering, and has done advanced studies at the University of Puget Sound and the University of Arizona. He was awarded two National Defense Education Act (NDEA) scholarships for science and math and was a Fulbright Scholar. From 1958 to 1972, Mr. Barker worked as an engineer for The Boeing Company, focusing on the structures, wing groups and instrumentation of the 737, 747, 757 and 767 aircraft. From 1987 to 2002, Mr. Barker owned and operated VertiFan, Inc., which designed and developed vertical take-off and landing aircraft under a U.S. Department of Defense contract. Mr. Barker has been honored for outstanding contributions by the Seattle chapters of the American Societies of Manufacturing Engineers and Automotive Engineers.

Table of Contents

Richard H. Davis. Mr. Davis received a B.S degree in economics from Florida State University in 1982. He joined First Equity Corporation (“First Equity”) in Miami that same year. First Equity operated as a regional full-service brokerage and investment bank. Mr. Davis’ duties included equity deal structure and brokerage-related activities. After First Equity was acquired in 2001, Mr. Davis joined the corporate finance department of William R. Hough & Company (“Hough”), where he continued structuring equity finance and private acquisitions. Hough was acquired in 2004 by RBC Dain Rauscher (“Dain”), a global investment banking firm. Dain consolidated Hough’s corporate finance activities into its New York offices. Mr. Davis elected to remain in Miami and joined Martinez-Ayme Securities, assuming the newly-created position of managing director of corporate finance.

Election of Directors

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors is not permitted by our Certificate of Incorporation.

Our Board of Directors shall be elected at the annual meeting of the shareholders or at a special meeting called for that purpose. Each director shall hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until the director's successor is elected and qualified.

Committees

Our Board does not yet have any committees; however, we intend to establish an audit committee and a compensation/stock option committee in the near future.

Advisory Board

In March 2010, PowerVerde’s Board created an Advisory Board to advise and recommend, on a non-legally-binding basis, certain directions or actions deemed to be beneficial to the Company’s success. The Advisory Board’s members may be shareholders or non-shareholders; however, each member represents a specific industry or vocation complementary to the Company’s anticipated markets, customers and technical needs. It is anticipated that the Advisory Board will meet once a year in person and meet by conference call quarterly. We expect to compensate the Advisory Board members with restricted stock and/or options; however, the compensation plan has not yet been established. The initial members of the Advisory Board are as follows:

Table of Contents

All of the initial Advisory Board Members, except for Mr. Berg, are PowerVerde shareholders.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934

Under the securities laws of the United States, our directors, executive officers and any persons holding more than 10% of the Company’s common stock are required to report their initial ownership of the Company’s common stock and any subsequent changes in that ownership to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Specific due dates for these reports have been established and the Company is required to identify in this Report those persons who failed to timely file these reports. All of the filing requirements were satisfied in 2009. In making this disclosure, we have relied solely on written representations of our directors and executive officers and copies of the reports that have been filed with the Commission.

Code of Ethics

We have not adopted a code of ethics for our management because of the costs involved and our lack of resources and limited operations.

We have not paid any compensation to officers or directors in such capacity; however, we periodically engage the services of Messrs. Konrad (through ARD) and Barker to perform certain services at a rate of $60 per hour. We believe that this compensation does not exceed the compensation that would be charged by an unaffiliated third-party rendering comparable services. See “Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.”

Employment Agreements

We have not entered into employment agreements with our executive officers as of the date of this Report. We may in the future enter into employment agreements with Messrs. Konrad and Barker. No assurance can be given as to when, if ever, such agreements will be entered into or the terms thereof; however, we intend to use fair market terms in any such agreement. We expect that such agreements could include bonuses, severance payments, non-competition provisions and other material items.

We may also issue to our officers and directors stock options on terms and conditions to be determined by our Board of Directors or designated committee.

Compensation of Directors

We have not yet determined a compensation plan for our directors. We intend to provide our directors with reasonable compensation for their services in cash, stock and/or options.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Our Certificate of Incorporation allows us to indemnify our present and former officers and directors and other personnel against liabilities and expenses arising from their service to the full extent permitted by Delaware law. The persons indemnified include our (i) present or former directors or officers, (ii) any person who while serving in any of the capacities referred to in clause (i) who served at our request as a director, officer, partner, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, and (iii) any person nominated or designated by (or pursuant to authority granted by) our board of directors or any committee thereof to serve in any of the capacities referred to in clauses (i) or (ii).

16

Table of Contents

The following table sets forth certain information as of March 31, 2010, regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock by (i) each of our directors and “named executive officers” and (ii) all of our executive officers and directors as a group. To our knowledge, no other person beneficially owns more than 5% of our common stock.

Pursuant to its agreement with ARD, the Company uses the ARD Facility and pays ARD (i) monthly rent of $.75 per square foot plus a proportionate share of utilities, (ii) $60 per hour for engineering, development and machining services by Mr. Konrad, and (iii) rates ranging from $60-$75 per hour for machine shop services and manufacturing services. Pursuant to its agreement with Mr. Barker, PowerVerde pays him $60 per hour for his engineering and development services. See “Item 2. Properties.” ARD and Mr. Barker received $173,512 and $18,000 from us in 2009, respectively.

We do not have any independent directors, as Messrs. Konrad and Barker are officers and principal shareholders, and Mr. Davis works for our investment banking firm. We intend to seek qualified independent directors to serve on our Board of Directors by the end of 2010.

In November 2008, we entered into a Line of Credit Agreement in the amount of $50,000 with Mr. Konrad. The agreement expired on November 13, 2009, and bore interest at the rate of 12.25% per annum. The full amount of the line of credit was drawn in the fourth quarter of 2008. On April 3, 2009, we paid the line of credit in full, including accrued interest thereon, with the proceeds of a private placement of common stock. See “Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities - Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.” No further draws have been made on the line of credit.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

PowerVerde, Inc. and Subsidiary

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of PowerVerde, Inc. and Subsidiary (the Company), as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the period from March 9, 2007 (Date of Inception) to December 31, 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of PowerVerde, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2009 and the period from March 9, 2007 (Date of Inception) to December 31, 2009, 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 shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $890,980 and $829,556 for 2009 and 2008, respectively. At December 31, 2009, current liabilities exceed current assets by $123,692. These factors, and others discussed in

Note 2, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 – Nature of Business

PowerVerde, Inc. (the Company) is a “C” Corporation organized under the Laws of Delaware with operations in Phoenix, Arizona. The Company has two principal owners who have conceived and developed the use of a power systems patent. The Company is in the development stage and it is presently undertaking research and development on a power generating system.

On February 11, 2008, Vyrex Corporation (“Vyrex” or the “Company”); PowerVerde, Inc. (“PowerVerde”) and Vyrex Acquisition Corporation (“VAC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vyrex, all Delaware corporations, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, on February 12, 2008, VAC merged with and into PowerVerde, with PowerVerde remaining as the surviving corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vyrex (the “Merger”). As consideration for the Merger, as of the closing of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of common stock of PowerVerde was converted into the right to receive 1.2053301 shares of the common stock of Vyrex and each share of VAC was converted into one share of PowerVerde common stock. As a result of the Merger, the former shareholders of PowerVerde hold 24,588,734 shares, or 95%, of the common stock of Vyrex. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, PowerVerde paid $233,000 in accounts payable and other liabilities owed by Vyrex. The total purchase price of the transaction of $401,894 includes $60,000 of transaction costs related to the Merger.

In addition, immediately prior to execution of the Merger Agreement, Vyrex paid a $200,000 promissory note through the issuance of 250,000 shares of common stock and issued an additional 25,000 shares of common stock as payment for certain consulting and administrative services.

The following is a summary of the assets acquired as of February 12. 2008:

At a stockholder meeting held on August 6, 2008, the Company’s stockholders approved (i) the change of the Company’s name to “PowerVerde, Inc.” and (ii) the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation filed as an exhibit to the Company’s report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2008. Immediately prior to the filing of the Certificate changing the Company’s name, the name of the Company’s operating subsidiary was changed from “PowerVerde, Inc.” to “PowerVerde Systems, Inc.”

Note 2 – Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has had recurring operating losses and negative cashflows from operations. Those factors, as well as uncertainty in securing additional funds for continued operations, create an uncertainty 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 this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(continued)

Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting

Our financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that effect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and PowerVerde Systems, Inc., its wholly owned subsidiary. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Development Stage Company

The Company is a development stage company as defined in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 915, “Development Stage Entities”. The Company is devoting substantially all of its present efforts to establish a new business and none of its planned principal operations have commenced. All losses accumulated since inception has been considered as part of the Company’s development stage activities.

Cash Equivalents

For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash equivalents include money market accounts and any highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less. At December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company had cash equivalents in the amount of $20,457 and $10,203, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

Licensing and royalty revenue from royalty agreements is recognized in accordance with the terms of the specific agreement, which generally includes a quarterly minimum payment by the licensee.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Expenditures for major betterments and additions are capitalized, while replacement, maintenance and repairs, which do not extend the lives of the respective assets, are expensed as incurred.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Under ASC 740, income taxes are recognized for the amount of taxes payable for the current year and deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequence of events that have been recognized differently in the financial statements than for tax purposes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are established using statutory tax rates and are adjusted for tax rate changes. We consider accounting for income taxes critical to our operations because management is required to make significant subjective judgments in developing our provision for income taxes, including the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances that may be required against deferred tax assets.

Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (Continued)

ASC 740 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income tax recognized in an entity’s financial statements and requires companies to determine whether it is “more likely than not” that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authorities before any part of the benefit can be recorded in the financial statements. For those tax positions where it is not “more likely than not” that a tax benefit will be sustained, no tax benefit is recognized. Where applicable, associated interest and penalties are also recorded. This interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, accounting in interim periods, and expanded disclosure requirements.

Based on our evaluation, we have concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our financial statements. Our evaluation was performed for the tax years ended December 31, 2006, 2007, and 2008, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of December 31, 2009. We may from time to time be assessed interest or penalties by major tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to our financial results. In the event we have received an assessment for interest and/or penalties, it has been classified in the financial statements as selling, general and administrative expense.

Research and Development Costs

The Company’s research and development costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Such expenditures amounted to $386,868 and $336,043 for the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (loss) per share is computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share”. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss), after deducting preferred stock dividends accumulated during the period, by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period.

Common Stock Purchase Warrants

The Company accounts for common stock purchase warrants in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815-10, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815-10”). Based on the provisions of ASC 815-10, the Company classifies as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement, or (ii) gives the company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). The Company classifies as assets or liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the company), or (ii) give the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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 income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Stockholders’ Equity

Shares of common stock issued for other than cash have been assigned amounts equivalent to the fair value of the service or assets received in exchange.

Financial Instruments and Fair Values

The fair value of a financial instrument represents the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based upon relevant market information about the financial instrument.

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and other assets approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

The fair values of all other financial instruments, including debt, approximate their book values as the instruments are short-term in nature or contain market rates of interest.

Note 4 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2009, Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) became the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) for nongovernmental entities, except for certain FASB Statements not yet incorporated into ASC. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for registrants. The discussion below includes the applicable ASC reference.

In April 2009, the Company adopted ASC Topic 820-10-65 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (formerly, FASB Staff Position No. SFAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly). The standard provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with Topic 820-10-65 when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate if a transaction is not orderly. The Company adopted this pronouncement effective April 1, 2009 with no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted, ASC Topic 855-10 Subsequent Events (formerly SFAS 165, Subsequent Events) effective April 1, 2009. This pronouncement changes the general standards of accounting and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.

In August 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value, which clarifies, among other things, that when a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, an entity must measure fair value using one or more specified techniques. The Company adopted the pronouncement effective July 1, 2009 with no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted ASC Topic 810-10 Consolidation (formerly SFAS No. 160, Non controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51) effective January 2, 2009. Topic 810-10 changes the manner of presentation and related disclosures for the non controlling interest in a subsidiary (formerly referred to as a minority interest) and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. The presentation changes are reflected retrospectively in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements (Continued)

ASC Topic 815-10 Derivatives and Hedging (formerly SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities) was adopted by the Company effective January 2, 2009. The guidance under Topic 815-10 changes the manner of presentation and related disclosures of the fair values of derivative instruments and their gains and losses.

The Company adopted ASC Topic 825-10 Financial Instruments (formerly, FASB Staff Position No. SFAS 107-1 and APB No. 28-1, Disclosures about the Fair Value of Financial Instruments), which requires quarterly disclosure of information about the fair value of financial instruments within the scope of Topic 825-10. The Company adopted this pronouncement effective April 1, 2009. This disclosure is in included in Note 7 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the FASB issued ASC Topic 860-10, “Accounting for Transfers and Financial Assets” (“ASC 860-10”) (formerly, SFAS No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets, an amendment to SFAS No. 140 ). ASC 860-10 eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity,” changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and requires additional disclosures in order to enhance information reported to users of financial statements by providing greater transparency about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and an entity’s continuing involvement in and exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. ASC 860-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company will adopt ASC 860-10 in fiscal 2010 and is evaluating the impact it will have on the consolidated results of the Company.

In June 2009, the FASB finalized SFAS No. 167, Amending FASB interpretation No. 46(R), which was included in ASC Topic 810. The provisions of ASC 810 amend the definition of the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity and will require the Company to make an assessment each reporting period of its variable interests. The provisions of this pronouncement are effective January 1, 2010. The Company is evaluating the impact of the statement on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements, which revises the existing multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance and changes the determination of when the individual deliverables included in a multiple-element revenue arrangement may be treated as separate units of accounting, modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables and expands the disclosures required for multiple-element revenue arrangements. The pronouncement is effective for financial statements issued after December 31, 2010. The Company does not expect the pronouncement to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 5 – Notes Payable

Series A Promissory Notes

During 2008, the Company completed an offering of $250,000 in principal amount of Series A Promissory Notes (the “Notes”). The Notes were due on July 31, 2009, and interest in the Notes accrued at the rate of 10% per annum. Interest on the Notes was $11,604 and $793, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. In consideration of the purchase of the Notes, the investors received three-year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share (one warrant share for each $1.00 invested). As of December 31, 2009, none of these warrants has been exercised. These warrants will expire on various dates in May 2011 through July 2011.

The fair value of these warrants of $249,985 was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the assumptions listed below:

The warrants were recorded at their fair value of $249,985, and a discount in the same amount was recorded against the carrying value of the notes payable. Amortization of the discount in the amount of $117,009 and $0, respectively, was charged to interest expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

In July 2009, $168,500 principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued interest thereon of $20,761, was converted into 378,521 shares of common stock, reflecting a conversion price of $.50 per share.

The agreement expired on November 13, 2009, and bore interest at the rate of 12.25% per annum. The full amount of the line of credit was drawn in the fourth quarter of 2008. On April 3, 2009, the Company paid the line of credit in full, including accrued interest thereon. No further draws have been made on the line of credit.

In consideration of the Line of Credit Agreement, the principal executive officer received a three-year warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.30 per share. As of December 31, 2009, this warrant has not been exercised. This warrant will expire on November 13, 2011.

Warrants

In connection with the Notes and the Line of Credit Agreement entered into in 2008 and discussed in Note 5, above, the Company issued warrants to purchase 250,000 and 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at exercise prices of $1.50 and $2.30 per share, respectively. These warrants are still outstanding as of December 31, 2009. The warrants issued pursuant to the Notes expire on various dates in May 2011 through July 2011, and the warrants issued pursuant to the Line of Credit Agreement expire in November 2011. The fair value of these warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model as discussed in Note 5, above.

A summary of warrants issued, exercised and expired for the year ended December 31, 2009 is as follows:

Private Placement of Common Stock

During March 2009, the Company raised $250,000 through the private placement of 333,333 shares of the Company’s common stock to accredited investors at $.75 per share. The Company’s cash received from financing activities reflects receipt at March 31, 2009, of $165,000 of the total $250,000 raised, and we received the balance in the second quarter. A 10% commission was paid to the placement agent, Martinez Ayme Securities.

On April 3, 2009, the Company paid in full the line of credit discussed in Note 5, above, to its principal executive officer using proceeds of the private placement. The related warrants have not been exercised.

Private Placement of Common Stock (Continued)

In the third quarter and early in the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company raised $700,000 through the private placement of 933,334 shares of common stock to accredited investors at $.75 per share. Of these funds, $620,249 were received in the third quarter and $79,751 were received in the fourth quarter. A 10% commission was paid to the placement agent, Martinez Ayme Securities, with respect to $350,000 of the funds invested in the offering. As to $100,000 of the funds, no commission was paid as the investor was procured by the Company’s CEO. As to the remaining $250,000, a 6% finder’s fee was paid to a third party and a 4% commission was paid to Martinez Ayme.

In October 2009, the Company issued 75,000 shares of its common stock, valued at $56,250, to Del Mar Corporate Consulting, LLC (the “Consultant”) pursuant to a Market Awareness Consulting Agreement, dated October 20, 2009. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company also paid the Consultant $25,000 upon signing; however, the Company has declined to pay the additional $25,000 due under this agreement due to the Company’s belief that the Consultant has failed to perform under this agreement.

Note 8 – Basic and Diluted Loss per Common Share

The computation of diluted loss per share for 2009 and 2008 does not include shares from potentially dilutive securities as the assumption of conversion or exercise of these would have an anti-dilutive effect on loss per share. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, diluted loss per share is calculated using the same number of potential common shares as used in the computation of loss per share before extraordinary items. There are three-hundred thousand (300,000) potentially dilutive shares outstanding at December 31, 2009.

Note 9 – Income Taxes

The Company did not provide a current or deferred U.S. federal or state income tax provision or benefit for any of the periods presented because it has experienced recurring operating losses. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets, consisting primarily of the net operating losses, because evidence does not indicate that the deferred tax assets will more likely than not be realized.

At December 31, 2009 and 2008, deferred tax assets, calculated at a tax rate of 35%, consisted of the following:

The Company’s effective income tax rate is lower than what would be expected if the federal statutory rate were applied to the loss from operations primarily because of the effect of the state tax benefit, net of federal benefit, and the change in the valuation allowance provided against deferred tax assets.

At December 31, 2009, the Company had net operating losses of approximately $2,028,000 that can be carried forward for up to twenty years and deducted against future taxable income. The net operating loss carryforwards expire in various years through 2029 and may be subject to certain limitations under federal and state tax laws.

Note 10 – Subsequent Events

In March 2010, the Company raised $110,000 through the private placement of 146,667 shares of the Company’s common stock, valued at $56,250, to accredited investors at $.75 per share. Each investor received a three-year warrant to purchase stock at $.75 per share for a number of shares of common stock equal to the number of shares purchased by the investor in this offering.
