NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2013 AND 2012
Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of the Company. We were originally incorporated on March 12, 1990 in California (“Ecology-CA”). Our current entity was incorporated in Nevada on February 6, 2002 as OCIS Corp. (“OCIS”). OCIS completed a merger with Ecology-CA on July 26, 2007 (the “Merger”). In the Merger, OCIS changed its name from OCIS Corporation to Ecology Coatings, Inc. The Company filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection on May 15, 2013 and subsequently emerged on September 19, 2014 with all liabilities settled and the corporate shell as its only asset. The September 19, 2014 date will be 'fresh start" date used to reset the financial statements in subsequent filings. Any business description below is of the operating results reported in this filing which no longer apply to our Company.
Reclassifications. Reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform with the current year presentation.
Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include all of our accounts and the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiary Ecology-CA. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Basis of Preparation. The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.
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 the amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition. The Company applies paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, (iii) collectability is reasonably assured and (iv) goods have been shipped and/or services rendered.
Loss Per Share. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants and the conversion of convertible debt and convertible preferred stock. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the weighted average number of shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. None of the stock options or warrants outstanding or stock associated with the convertible debt or with the convertible preferred shares during each of the periods presented was included in the computation of diluted loss per share as they were anti-dilutive.
Property and Equipment. Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
Computer equipment | 3-10 years |
Furniture and fixtures | 3-7 years |
Test equipment | 5-7 years |
Signs | 7 years |
Software | 3 years |
Marketing and Promotional Video | 3 years |
Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred. Betterments or renewals are capitalized as incurred.
Patents. It is our policy to capitalize costs associated with securing a patent. Costs consist of legal and filing fees. Once a patent is issued, it will be amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life.
Long-Lived Assets. We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a
8
comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
We have reviewed all Accounting Standards Updates issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board since we last issued financial statements and have determined none of them would have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
Note 2 — Concentrations
There were no concentrations of revenues or risk during the quarter ending December 31, 2013.
Note 3 — Related Party Transactions
There were no related party transactions during the quarter ending December 31, 2013.
Note 4 — Judgments
None
Note 5 — Commitments and Contingencies
None
Contingencies.
The Company has filed for bankruptcy protection under chapter seven of the United States Bankruptcy code. Under a liquidation all assets would be used to offset existing liabilities and any liabilities could be compromised.
Note 6 — Equity
There were no shares issued during this fiscal quarter.
Note 7 — Stock Options
There were no stock options issued during this fiscal quarter.
Note 8 – Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the three months ended December 31, 2013, we incurred net losses. We had working capital deficits and negative cash flows. On May 15, 2013 with no other options, the Company filed under chapter 7 for bankruptcy protection. Chapter 7 allowed the Company's corporate shell to subsequently emerge as its only asset on September 19, 2014 with all liabilities settled. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Note 9 — Subsequent Events
We evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure subsequent to the date of the balance sheet and have nothing to report.
The Company filed for chapter 7 bankruptcy protection with the United States Bankruptcy court on May 15, 2013. On September 10, 2014 the company settled all debts in excess of assets and the corporate shell as the only unencumbered asset.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Except for statements of historical fact, the information presented herein constitutes forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements generally can be identified by phrases such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “foresees,” “intends,” “plans,” or other words of similar import. Similarly, statements herein that describe our business strategy, outlook, objectives, plans, intentions or goals also are forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to, our ability to: successfully commercialize our technology; generate revenues and achieve profitability in an intensely competitive industry; compete in products and prices with substantially larger and better capitalized competitors; secure, maintain and enforce a strong intellectual property portfolio; attract additional capital sufficient to finance our working capital requirements, as well as any investment of plant, property and equipment; develop a sales and marketing infrastructure; identify and maintain relationships with third party suppliers who can provide us a reliable source of raw materials; acquire, develop, or identify for our own use, a manufacturing capability; attract and retain talented individuals; continue operations during periods of uncertain general economic or market conditions, and; other events, factors and risks previously and from time to time disclosed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, specifically, the “Risk Factors” enumerated herein.
Although we believe the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. Except as required by law, we do not undertake to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
“Ecology”, “we”, “us”, or “our” refer to Ecology Coatings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Ecology Coatings, Inc., a California corporation.
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
The Company filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection on May 15, 2013 and subsequently emerged on September 19, 2014 with all liabilities settled and the corporate shell as its only asset. The September 19, 2014 date will be 'fresh start" date used to reset the financial statements in subsequent filings. Any business description below is of the operating results reported in this filing which no longer apply to our Company.
Operating Results
Three Months Ended December 31, 2013 and 2012
Revenues. We generated $0 and $7,026 in revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. The Company operated during the 2013 quarter in bankruptcy proceedings.
Operating Expenses. The decrease of approximately $144,000 in such expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2013 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2012 is the result of the decreases in salaries from our reduced staff and decreased professional fees. Expenses in the 2013 quarter were approved in bankruptcy proceedings.
Interest Expense. The decrease of approximately $16,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2012. There were no interest expense in the 2013 quarter which was in bankruptcy proceedings.
Income Tax Provision . No provision for income tax benefit from net operating losses has been made for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 as we have fully reserved the asset until realization is more likely than not.
Net Loss. The decrease in the net loss of approximately $153,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2012 is explained in the foregoing discussions of the various expense categories.
Basic and Diluted Loss per Share. The change in basic and diluted net loss per share for the three months ended December 31, 2013 reflects the change in net loss position discussed above during the three months ended December 31, 2013.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash as of December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013 totaled $608 and $618, respectively. Subsequent to the period end of these statements and before the issuance of this report the company filed bankruptcy under chapter 7 of the United States
10
Bankruptcy Code. Our liabilities exceeded our assets by approximately $1,900,000 and our corporate shell which trades on the OTC market was sold unencumbered. New management has arranged for the filing of our 10K and 10Q reports through small working capital loans until a new direction can be determined for the company.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
See Note 5 – Commitments and Contingencies - to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Preparation of the statements in accordance with these principles requires that we make estimates, using available data and our judgment, for such things as valuing assets, accruing liabilities and estimating expenses. The following is a discussion of what we feel are the most critical estimates that we must make when preparing our financial statements.
Revenue Recognition. The Company applies paragraph 605-10-S99-1 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, (iii) collectability is reasonably assured and (iv) goods have been shipped and/or services rendered.
Income from forgiveness of payables and debt. Income from the forgiveness of payables and debt is recognized when all of the conditions associated with the forgiveness have been met.
Income Taxes and Deferred Income Taxes. We use the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences in the bases of assets and liabilities as reported for financial statement purposes and income tax purposes and for the future use of net operating losses. We have recorded a valuation allowance against our net deferred income tax asset. The valuation allowance reduces deferred income tax assets to an amount that represents management’s best estimate of the amount of such deferred income tax assets that more likely than not will be realized.
Property and Equipment. Property and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the following useful lives:
Computer equipment | 3-10 years |
Furniture and fixtures | 3-7 years |
Test equipment | 5-7 years |
Signs | 7 years |
Software | 3 years |
Marketing and promotional video | 3 years |
Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to operations as incurred. Betterments or renewals are capitalized as incurred.
We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset with future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
Patents. It is our policy to capitalize costs associated with securing a patent. Costs consist of legal and filing fees. Once a patent is issued, it is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life. For purposes of the preparation of the audited, consolidated financial statements, we have recorded amortization expense associated with the patents based on an eight-year useful life.
Stock-Based Compensation. We have a stock incentive plan that provides for the issuance of stock options, restricted stock and other awards to employees and service providers. Employee and director stock-based compensation expense is measured utilizing the fair-value method with stock-based compensation expense being charged to earnings on the earlier of the date services are performed or a performance commitment exists. Our valuation method uses a Black-Scholes option pricing model. In so doing, we estimate certain key assumptions used in the model.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable since we are a smaller reporting company under applicable SEC rules.
11
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act:”) as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reached this conclusion due to the lack of segregation of duties in financial reporting as a result of the small size of our financial staff.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the three months ended December 31, 2013, was placed under the supervision of a trustee after it filed for bankruptcy protection. All transactions and activity must be court approved.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
None
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Prospective and existing investors should carefully consider the following risk factors in evaluating our business. The factors listed below represent the known material risks that we believe could cause our business results to differ from the statements contained herein.

On May 15, 2012 the Company filed for chapter 7 bankruptcy protection. The Company emerged from bankruptcy protection on September 19, 2014 with its only asset the corporate shell trading on OTC market. There is no guarantee that the company can use its fresh start to successfully launch a new business plan and continue to raise enough capital to continue meeting its filing requirements.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
We did not repurchase any of our securities during the nine months ended June 30, 2013. Sales of unregistered securities have been previously reported on Form 8-Ks filed with the Commission.
