ALUMIFUEL POWER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1: Basis of presentation
The interim unaudited financial statements presented herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and for the three month period ended March 31, 2010 include the financial statements of AlumiFuel Power Corporation (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries HPI Partners, LLC (“HPI”), AlumiFuel Power, Inc. (“API”) and newly formed 97% owned subsidiary AlumiFuel Power International, Inc.. The historical financial statements for the three month period ended March 31, 2009 are those of HPI and API. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in unaudited financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The interim unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009, notes and accounting policies thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are necessary to provide a fair presentation of operating results for the interim periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.
The accompanying 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. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has had very limited revenue through March 31, 2010, and has an accumulated deficit of $12,242,298 from its inception through that date. These factors, among others, may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
Interim financial data presented herein are unaudited.
FastFunds Financial Corporation Shares
As part of the acquisition of HPI and API, the Company received 3,500,000 shares of FastFunds Financial Corporation common stock that were presented on the balance sheet as “Investment securities – marked to market” and were marked to their fair value ($35,000) at December 31, 2008. During the three month period ended March 31, 2008, the HPI recorded an unrealized gain on these shares of $35,000 and marked to their fair value at that time of $70,000. Based upon a review by management at December 31, 2009, the shares are now being accounted for using the "equity method" of accounting because they represent an ownership interest of approximately 35% of the outstanding common stock of FastFunds. Under the equity method, the investment account is adjusted quarterly to recognize the Company's share of the income or losses of FastFunds. Accordingly, since FastFunds recorded net losses in excess of $1,000,000 during 2009, the investment was written down to zero as of December 31, 2009.
Formation of AlumiFuel Power International, Inc.
In February 2010, the Company formed a new subsidiary, AlumiFuel Power International, Inc. ("AFPI"). In connection with the formation of the AFPI, the Company and AFPI executed a License Agreement through which AFPI received certain international marketing rights and the rights to utilize certain intellectual property from the Company for exploitation in countries and territories outside of North America in exchange for 25,000,000 shares of the Company's $0.001 par value common stock. As part of the agreement, AFPI will reimburse the Company, from time-to-time, for reasonable costs and expenses related to the past, present and future development costs of the IP in an amount to be determined by the parties. In addition, the Company subscribed for 15,000,000 shares of AFPI common stock at $0.01 per share. AFPI also commenced a private placement of common stock at $0.10 per share. As of March 31, 2010, AFPI had sold 879,000 shares of its common stock in the private placement in exchange for $87,900, which represented 3.4% of the outstanding common stock of AFPI as of that date. This represents a non-controlling interest in AFPI that totaled $1,958 of AFPI's outstanding equity at March 31, 2010. In addition, $1,877 in the net loss of AFPI at March 31, 2010 has been attributed to the non-controlling interest of those stockholders.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents at December 31, 2009 and 2008 were $-0-.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company has certain stock option plans approved by its stockholders, and also grants options and warrants to consultants outside of its stock option plan pursuant to individual agreements.
The Company accounts for compensation expense for its stock-based employee compensation plans and issuances of options and warrants to consultants in accordance with ASC Topic 718, formerly known as SFAS No. 123R "Share Based Payment" which replaced SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (“SFAS No. 123”) and supersedes Opinion No. 25 of the Accounting Principles Board, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25). The Company has elected the modified-prospective method, under which prior periods are not revised for comparative purposes. See Note 5. Capital Stock for further information on the Company's stock options plans and other warrant/option issuances.
Debt Issue Costs
The costs related to the issuance of debt are capitalized and amortized to interest expense using the straight-line method over the lives of the related debt. The straight-line method results in amortization that is not materially different from that calculated under the effective interest method.
Financial Instruments
At March 31, 2010, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their carrying value based on their terms and interest rates.
Loss per Common Share
Loss per share of common stock is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Stock options, warrants, and common stock underlying convertible promissory notes are not considered in the calculations for the periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, as the impact of the potential common shares, which totaled 93,346,507 (March 31, 2010), -0- (March 31, 2009), would be anti-dilutive and decrease loss per share. Therefore, diluted loss per share presented for the three month periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 is equal to basic loss per share.

ALUMIFUEL POWER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Accounting for obligations and instruments potentially settled in the Company’s common stock
In connection with any obligations and instruments potentially to be settled in the Company's stock, the Company accounts for the instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in a Company’s Own Stock". This issue addresses the initial balance sheet classification and measurement of contracts that are indexed to, and potentially settled in, the Company's stock. Under this pronouncement, contracts are initially classified as equity or as either assets or liabilities, depending on the situation. All contracts are initially measured at fair value and subsequently accounted for based on the then current classification. Contracts initially classified as equity do not recognize subsequent changes in fair value as long as the contracts continue to be classified as equity. For contracts classified as assets or liabilities, the Company reports changes in fair value in earnings and discloses these changes in the financial statements as long as the contracts remain classified as assets or liabilities. If contracts classified as assets or liabilities are ultimately settled in shares, any previously reported gains or losses on those contracts continue to be included in earnings. The classification of a contract is reassessed at each balance sheet date.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized upon shipment of the product to the customer. Payment terms are typically 30 to 60 days net due following order delivery, depending on the customer.
Derivative Instruments
In connection with the issuances of equity instruments or debt, the Company may issue options or warrants to purchase common stock. In certain circumstances, these options or warrants may be classified as liabilities, rather than as equity. In addition, the equity instrument or debt may contain embedded derivative instruments, such as conversion options or listing requirements, which in certain circumstances may be required to be bifurcated from the associated host instrument and accounted for separately as a derivative liability instrument. The Company accounts for derivative instruments under the provisions of ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”, formerly known as, SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities".
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
Note 3: Related Party
Related Party Accounts Payable
The Board of Directors has estimated the value of management services at the monthly rate of $8,000 and $2,000 for the president and secretary/treasurer, respectively. The estimates were determined by comparing the level of effort to the cost of similar labor in the local market and this expense totaled $30,000 at March 31, 2010. As of March 31, 2010, $6,500 of these fees remained unpaid.

AlumiFuel Power Corporation Convertible Promissory Notes
May 2008 Notes
In May 2008, the Company issued notes payable to two accredited investors for the issuance of $55,000 of 10% unsecured convertible notes in private transactions (the “May Notes”). The May Notes are convertible at 75% of the average closing bid price per share of the Company’s common stock for the twenty days immediately preceding the date of conversion subject to a floor of $0.05 per share.
In September 2009, the Company received conversion notices for all principal and accrued interest totaling $7,426, which was converted to 607,996 shares of our $0.001 par value common stock at a conversion price of $0.103 per share. However, due to delays in issuing the shares, on March 31, 2010 the Company agreed to issue an additional 1,360,552 shares valued at $62,585 to the holders of the notes. These shares were valued at $0.046 per share, the market price for our common stock on the date of issuance.
September 2009 Convertible Note
In September 2009, we issued a note payable to an accredited investor for a $30,000 12% unsecured convertible note (the “September Note”). The September Note was due and payable on December 4, 2009 and is convertible into the Company’s common stock at $0.05 per share. The Company has determined that the conversion feature does not represent an embedded derivative as the conversion price is known and is not variable making it conventional. The Company determined there was a beneficial conversion feature related to the December Notes based on the difference between the conversion price of $0.05 and the market price of the Company’s common stock the note issue date and recorded as interest expense $30,000 with an offset to additional paid-in capital. The entire principal balance of this note plus accrued interest of $2,061 was payable at March 31, 2010.
Convertible Debentures
In September, 2009, the Company engaged a placement agent to act as its agent in the offer and sale of up to $700,000 of 6% unsecured convertible debentures in transactions with private investors (the “Debentures”). The offering was on a “best efforts” basis with a minimum offering amount of $100,000. In connection with the transaction, the Company executed an Escrow Agreement in which all funds related to the offering were deposited until the minimum offering amount of $100,000 was reached and a first closing occurred on September 29, 2009. Once the minimum offering amount was reached, funds raised up to the maximum offering amount were released from escrow at future closings from time-to-time as prescribed in the offering documents.
Among other terms of the offering, the Debentures are due three years from the final Closing Date for each Debenture under the securities purchase agreement (the “Maturity Date”), unless prepayment of the Debentures is required in certain events, as called for in the agreements. The Debentures are convertible at a conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) for each share of common stock equal to 75% of the lowest closing bid price per share (as reported by Bloomberg, LP) of the Company’s common stock for the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion. In addition, the Debentures provide for adjustments for dividends payable other than in shares of common stock, for reclassification, exchange or substitution of the common stock for another security or securities of the Company or pursuant to a reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of assets, where there is a change in control of the Company.
F-11
ALUMIFUEL POWER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The outstanding principal balance of each Debenture bears interest, in arrears, at six percent (6%) per annum, payable (i) upon conversion, or (ii) on the Maturity Date, in cash or shares of our common stock at the Conversion Price. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the offering documents), the Company is required to pay interest to the Holder of each outstanding Debenture, at the option of the Holders (i) at the rate of lesser of eighteen percent (18%) per annum and the maximum interest rate allowance under applicable law, and (ii) the Holders may at their option declare the Debentures, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, to be immediately due and payable.
The Company may at its option call for redemption all or part of the Debentures prior to the Maturity Date. The Debentures called for redemption shall be redeemable for an amount equal to 120% of the outstanding principal and interest if called for redemption prior to the date that is six months from the date of issuance, or 131%, if called for redemption on or after the date that is six months after the date of issuance. If fewer than all of the outstanding Debentures are redeemed, then all of the Debentures shall be partially redeemed on a pro rata basis.
Further terms call for the Company to maintain sufficient authorized shares reserved for issuance under the agreement equal to 300% of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the debentures. In addition, if the closing bid price of the Common Stock is below $0.05 on three (3) consecutive trading days, then the Company shall seek to implement a reverse stock split in a ratio of at least one-for-five. On March 10, 2010, the Company was notified by the placement that the closing bid price of the Common Stock was below $0.05 on three (3) consecutive trading days and made demand under the agreement that the Company seek shareholder approval for a reverse stock split. The Company currently intends to hold a meeting of stockholders during the second quarter of 2010 to seek such approval.
During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company executed Securities Purchase Agreements (the "Purchase Agreements") with various accredited investors (the "Holder" or "Holders") for an aggregate of $380,000 in Debentures. During the year ended December 31, 2009, we received net proceeds from the Debenture closings of $315,420 after debt issuance costs of $64,580 paid to the placement agent, Divine Capital Markets, LLC. In January 2010, an additional $55,000 in principal was received in two closings from which the Company received net proceeds of $47,770 after debt issuance costs of $7,230 paid at closing. Additionally, Divine Capital Markets, LLC received a one-time issuance of 900,000 shares of our $0.001 par value common stock upon completion of the first closing in September 2009. These shares were valued at $117,000 or $0.13 per share, the market price for our common stock on the date of issuance. These debt issuance costs totaling $188,810 will be amortized over the three year terms of the Debentures. As of March 31, 2010, $30,191 of these costs had been expensed as debt issuance costs.
We have determined that the conversion feature of the Debentures represents an embedded derivative since the Debentures are convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. Accordingly, the convertible Debentures are not considered to be conventional debt under EITF 00-19 and the embedded conversion feature must be bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability. The Company believes that the aforementioned embedded derivatives meet the criteria of ASC 815 (formerly SFAS 133 and EITF 00-19), and should be accounted separately as derivatives with a corresponding value recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the fair value of these derivative instruments have been recorded as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet with the corresponding amount recorded as a discount to the Debentures. Such discount will be accreted from the date of issuance to the maturity date of the Debentures. The change in the fair value of the liability for derivative contracts will be credited to other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations at the end of each quarter. The $435,000 face amount of the Debentures were stripped of their conversion feature due to the accounting for the conversion feature as a derivative, which was recorded using the residual proceeds to the conversion option attributed to the debt. The beneficial conversion feature (an embedded derivative) included in the Debentures resulted in an initial debt discount of $435,000 and an initial loss on the valuation of derivative liabilities of $71,190 for a derivative liability balance of $506,190 at issuance.

Note 5: Notes Receivable
During the quarter ended March 31, 2010, the Company loaned $16,403 to FastFunds Financial Corporation (“FFFC”), an affiliate of the Company. This amount was added to a $220,790 that was loaned to FFFC by HPI and the Company during 2008 and 2009. Each of these loans carries an interest rate of 8% per annum and are due on demand.

Accordingly, the Company recorded bad debt expense of $16,403 included in other selling, general and administrative expenses on the Company’s statement of operations at March 31, 2010. The Company has allowed for all interest due on these notes and did not record any interest receivable during the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

Note 7: Payroll Liabilities
Following the formation of API in May 2008, the HPI hired certain former employees of Hydrogen Power, Inc. and maintained an office in Seattle, Washington for a period of approximately five months. During that time, the HPI paid wages to these employees without the benefit of a payroll management service. Upon the HPI’s move from Seattle to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in October 2008, the Company retained the services of a payroll management service to handle its payroll functions. As a result, the Company recorded $52,576 in payroll liabilities due from wages paid to its employees and has increased that amount quarterly for penalties and interest leaving a total due of $67,166 at December 31, 2009. The company recorded additional expense of $3,373 at March 31, 2010 leaving a balance due of $70,539 as of that date. This amount is included on the balance sheets at March 31, 2010 as “payroll liabilities”.
Note 8: Income Tax
The Company records its income taxes in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The Company has incurred significant net operating losses since inception resulting in a deferred tax asset, which was fully allowed for; therefore, the net benefit and expense resulted in $-0- income taxes.
Note 9: Capital Stock
Reverse Acquisition of HPI Partners, LLC and Subsidiary
As part of the recapitalization of HPI resulting from the Stock Exchange transaction, HPI’s closing equity of $2,500,500 at the time of the merger has been eliminated and the equity transactions since its inception have been restated as if they were issued shares of the Company’s common and preferred stock. Accordingly, equity balances on the balance sheets at December 31, 2009 and the statements of operations at March 31, 2009 have been restated to reflect the recapitalization of HPI.
Common Stock
During the period three month period ended March 31, 2010, the Company sold 12,037,500 shares of its common stock to accredited investors for total proceeds of $209,800, or the equivalent of $0.02 per share.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
General:
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2009 as well as HPI’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2008.
The independent auditors’ report on our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 includes a “going concern” explanatory paragraph that describes substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to the factors prompting the explanatory paragraph are discussed below and also in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009.
While our independent auditor has presented our financial statements on the basis that we are a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business over a reasonable length of time, they have raised a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
AlumiFuel Power Corporation was incorporated in the state of Nevada on January 19, 2000 under the name Organic Soils.Com, Inc. Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of March 24, 2005 by and between the Company and Inhibetex Therapeutics, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“Inhibetex”), Organic Soils.com, Inc. and Inhibetex entered into a share exchange whereby all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Inhibetex, on a fully-diluted basis, were exchanged for like securities of Organic Soils.com, Inc., and whereby Inhibetex became a wholly owned subsidiary of Organic Soils.com, Inc. The Share Exchange was effective as of May 19, 2005 at which time the Company changed its name to Inhibiton Therapeutics, Inc.
Acquisition of HPI Partners LLC and Subsidiary
Pursuant to an Agreement Concerning the Exchange of Securities by and among the Company, HPI and the Security Holders of HPI (the “HPI Members”) dated March 4, 2009, (the “Share Exchange Agreement”), the parties entered into a share exchange whereby all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of HPI were exchanged for common and preferred shares in the Company. The Share Exchange was effective as of May 5, 2009, upon closing of the transaction among the parties.
This acquisition was treated as a reverse-merger with HPI being the accounting acquirer including a recapitalization of its equity with Inhibiton Therapeutics, Inc. as the legal surviving entity. As a result, effective on May 28, 2009, the Company changed its name from Inhibiton Therapeutics, Inc. to AlumiFuel Power Corporation. The historical financial statements for the three month period ended March 31, 2009 are those of HPI and API. The financial statements for the three month period ended March 31, 2010 include the unaudited results of AlumiFuel Power Corporation as well as HPI, API and AFPI from its formation on February 22, 2010.
As part of the recapitalization of HPI, HPI’s common stock balance of $2,500,500 at the time of the merger has been eliminated and the equity transactions since its inception were restated as if they were issued shares of the Company’s common and preferred stock. Accordingly, the statements of operations for HPI and Subsidiaries at March 31, 2009 presented herein have been restated as if they were issued shares of the Company’s common and preferred stock. Certain amounts in the HPI and Subsidiaries financial statements have been restated to conform with the current year financial statement presentation.
HPI Partners, LLC is a Colorado Limited Liability Company formed on November 8, 2007. HPI formed AlumiFuel Power, Inc., a Colorado corporation, which is a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of the Company. API of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, is a an early production stage alternative energy company that generates hydrogen gas and steam for multiple niche applications requiring on-site, on-demand fuel sources. API’s hydrogen drives fuel cells for back-up, remote, and portable power, fills inflatable devices such as weather balloons, and can replace costly, hard-to-handle and high pressure K-Cylinders. Its steam/hydrogen output is also being designed to drive turbine-based underwater propulsion systems and auxiliary power systems. API has significant differentiators in performance, adaptability, safety and cost-effectiveness in its target market applications, with no external power required and no toxic chemicals or by-products.
17
API’s technology is based on the exothermic reaction of aluminum powder and water, combined with proprietary additives which act as catalysts, initiators and reactants. Novel packaging of the aluminum powder and additives into cartridges enables them to be inserted into a generator/reactor, where an infusion of water results in the rapid generation of highly pure hydrogen and superheated steam.
API’s lab and offices are located in the Philadelphia Science Center in downtown Philadelphia, where it has access to world class testing instruments and technical talent. API has a seasoned management team and an experienced and dedicated technical team; and has close working relationships with major industry players as path-to-market partners, including major defense contractors and commercial fabricators of the company’s reactors and cartridge products on an outsourcing basis.
API has completed the design and engineering modifications necessary and has begun production of its Portable Balloon Inflation System (PBIS-1000). In February 2010 API received a purchase order for three PBIS-1000 units totaling $38,940 from Kaymont Consolidated for unspecified military customer. These units were shipped on March 29, 2010 and that amount was recorded under accounts receivable on our balance sheets and revenue on our statements of operations.
Formation of AlumiFuel Power International, Inc.
In February 2010, the Company formed AFPI and has subscribed for 15,000,000 shares of common stock in AFPI for $150,000 and received 25,000,000 shares of AFPI common stock pursuant to a license agreement executed between the companies. The license agreement licenses the Company's intellectual property and trademarks for use by AFPI giving AFPI the right to utilize that intellectual property and market the Company's products to all countries outside of North America. As part of the agreement, AFPI will reimburse the Company, from time-to-time, for reasonable costs and expenses related to the past, present and future development costs of the IP in an amount to be determined by the parties. AFPI is presently undertaking a private placement of its common at $0.10 per share. AFPI is presently pursing other funding opportunities with German institutional investors as well as a potential listing of its common stock on the Deutsche Börse stock exchange.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
To address the going concern situation addressed in our financial statements at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010, we anticipate we will require over the next twelve months approximately $1,500,000 of additional capital to fund the Company’s operations. This amount does not include any amounts that may be necessary to pay off existing debt or accrued expenses. We presently believe the source of funds will primarily consist of several components that include: debt financing, which may include further loans from our officers or directors as detailed more fully in the accompanying financial statements; the sale of our equity securities in private placements or other equity offerings or instruments; as well as cash flows from operations through the anticipated production of its PBIS-1000 reactor and the resultant sales of AlumiFuel cartridges. In addition, the Company is pursuing funding opportunities in Europe for its AFPI international subsidiary.
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, we received a net of approximately $420,642 from our financing activities, primarily from the sale of shares of our common stock and the issuance of notes and debentures payable. This compared to cash provided by financing activities of $238,834 in the three months ended March 31, 2009 derived primarily from proceeds from the issuance of equity.
In the three month period ended March 31, 2010, net cash used in operating activities was $360,630. This compared to net cash used in operating activities of $198,391 for same period in 2009. The 2010 amount included a $1,370,995 net loss that included approximately $928,000 in non-cash charges and credits to operating assets and liabilities primarily from non-cash stock-based compensation expense on the issuance of stock options and warrants. This compares to a net loss of $251,968 in the three months ended March 31, 2009 that included a non-cash gain of approximately $35,000 for unrealized loss on the FastFunds common stock offset by approximately $88,000 in changes to operating assets and liabilities.
18
We can make no assurance that we will be successful in raising the funds necessary for our working capital requirements as suitable financing may not be available and we may not have the ability to sell either equity or debt securities under acceptable terms or in amounts sufficient to fund our needs. Our inability to access various capital markets or acceptable financing could have a material effect on our commercialization efforts, results of operations and deployment of our business strategies and severely threaten our ability to operate as a going concern.
During the remainder of our fiscal year and for the foreseeable future, we will be concentrating on raising the necessary working capital through acceptable debt facilities and equity financing to insure our ability to continue our research and implement other business strategies including funding our newly acquired alternative energy business. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or equity related securities, the issuance of such securities could result in significant dilution to our current shareholders.
(b) Results of Operations
Three Month Period ended March 31, 2010 vs. March 31, 2009
The Company’s results of operations for the 2010 periods reported include the consolidated operations of the Company and its subsidiaries HPI, API and AFPI while operations for the 2009 period include only those of HPI and API.
For the three month period ended March 31, 2010, our total revenue was $38,940 from the sales of our first three PBIS-1000 production units. Our total operating costs and expenses were $1,486,681 versus $282,586 for the same period in 2009. Reactor production costs were $35,399 in for the three months ended March 31, 2010 with no similar costs in 2009. The loss also included $55,196 and $43,500 in 2010 and 2009, respectively, comprised of related party expense that included officer and key employee management fees as well as rent paid to related parties. Product development expense was $14,433 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 versus $13,813 in 2009. The 2010 expense also includes $989,350 in stock based compensation primarily for costs related to the issuances of warrants in 2009 that vested during the period as well as stock options granted in the first quarter of 2010. There was no similar expense for the three months ended March 31, 2009.
The balance of $392,303 and $225,273 for “other” SG&A expenses in the periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 was comprised of the following:

The “other” SG&A expense during the three months ended March 31, 2010 included a significant increase in general and administrative expenses as the Company's API subsidiary was fully operational in the 2010 period but was not yet formed as of March 31, 2009. The company also saw a significant increase in professional services costs as the Company worked to begin production as well as formed AFPI and developed key relationships for future capital raising opportunities.
The company recorded $76,746 in “other income (expense)” during the three months ended March 31, 2010 as compared to $30,618 in the same period of 2009. This increase is primarily attributed to fair value adjustments to the Company's debentures of $191,334 that was offset by interest expense and amortization of the convertible note discounts. For the 2009 period, the Company had $35,000 in unrealized gain on investment that was offset by $4,382 in interest expense.

Not applicable
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
A review and evaluation was performed by the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer (the "CEO") who is also the Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that review and evaluation, the CEO concluded that as of March 31, 2010 disclosure controls and procedures, were effective at ensuring that the material information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as required in the application of SEC rules and forms.
Management’s Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a set of processes designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:
•
|
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;
|
•
|
Provide reasonable assurance our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
|
•
|
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statement.
|
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of internal control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our CEO/CFO has evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as described in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this report based upon criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) to the extent possible given the limited personnel resources and technological infrastructure in place to perform the evaluation. Based upon our management’s discussions with our auditors and other advisors, our CEO/CFO believe that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective as described below.
Due to the small size and limited financial resources, our administrative assistant, corporate secretary and chief executive officer are the only individuals involved in the accounting and financial reporting. As a result, there is limited segregation of duties in the accounting function, leaving all aspects of financial reporting and physical control of cash primarily in the hands of two individuals. This limited segregation of duties represents a material weakness. We will continue to periodically review our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting and make modifications from time to time considered necessary or desirable.
20
This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
