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 periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 include the financial statements of AlumiFuel Power Corporation (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries HPI Partners, LLC (“HPI”), AlumiFuel Power, Inc. (“API”), AlumiFuel Power Technologies, Inc. ("APTI"), newly formed subsidiary Novofuel, Inc. ("Novofuel"), and 64% owned subsidiary AlumiFuel Power International, Inc. ("AFPI").
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. All of the intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. The interim unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, 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 had no revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2013, and has an accumulated deficit of $22,262,852 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.
On April 24, 2013, the Company effected a one-for-two hundred (1 for 200) reverse stock split. As a result of the reverse split, the number of shares outstanding and per share information for all prior periods presented have been retroactively restated to reflect the new capital structure.
AlumiFuel Power International, Inc.
In February 2010, the Company formed its subsidiary, AFPI. The total number of AFPI shares outstanding at December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013 was 62,411,864.
In the quarter ended March 31, 2012, the Company sold a total of 75,000 shares of its AFPI to a private investor for a total of Euro15,000 or approximately $19,875 and recorded expense on the transfer of 3,000 shares to a consultant valued at $1,386 which is reflected on the statements of changes in stockholders' deficit. As a result, the Company owned 47,282,865 shares of AFPI common stock at March 31, 2012.
During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company sold a total of 8,373,271 shares of AFPI and as a result, the Company owned 39,984,494 shares of AFPI common stock at December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013. We maintain a custody account for our cash and securities in Germany that had a cash balance of $96 at March 31, 2013 and is reflected as Cash on our balance sheet.
In December 2012, the Deutsche Börse Frankfurt Stock Exchange closed the First Quotation Board, the exchange on which AFPI's common stock traded. The Company is planning to apply for listing on the GXG Markets during the second quarter 2013. The Company's application will seek admission to the GXG Markets' First Quote segment, which is the new European stock exchange catering to early stage growth companies.
The value of all shares of AFPI held by the Company have been eliminated on consolidation of the financial statements at March 31, 2013 as intercompany accounts. At March 31, 2013 there were 22,427,370 shares held by shareholders other than the Company representing 35.9% of the outstanding common shares of AFPI as of that date. This represents a non-controlling interest in AFPI that totaled $3,513,929 based on AFPI's outstanding total equity of $9,778,715 at March 31, 2013. In addition, $9,030 in the net loss of AFPI of $25,129 for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 has been attributed to the non-controlling interest of those stockholders.

Formation of Novofuel, Inc.
During the three month period ended March 31, 2013, we transferred all of the assets related to our hydrogen generation business to a new wholly owned subsidiary, Novofuel, Inc. ("Novofuel") in exchange for 12,000,000 shares of Novofuel common stock. Novofuel was formed as a separate entity in anticipation of executing a transaction with Genport, srl of Italy, which would merge its wholly-owned operating subsidiary into Novofuel. The Company and Genport have executed a Term Sheet and the parties are moving forward toward completion of a definitive agreement through which both parties would own 50% of Novofuel before any future financings.
If completed, the merger would combine and integrate the synergistic technologies, Intellectual Property, products, revenues, engineering staffs, manufacturing operations, marketing, sales and services activities of both companies. The focus of Novofuel would be to pursue and capture backup and portable power applications and business opportunities in the U.S., Europe. The new entity would pursue the engineering development of an integrated 5kW backup power system for telecom facilities.
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 March 31, 2013 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.
F-7 |
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, 2013, the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their carrying value based on their terms and interest rates.
Fair value of financial instruments
The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate methodologies; however, considerable judgment is required in interpreting information necessary to develop these estimates. Accordingly, the Company’s estimates of fair values are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, current non-related party accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their carrying amounts because of the short maturities of these instruments.
The fair values of notes and advances receivable from non-related parties approximate their net carrying values because of the allowances recorded as well as the short maturities of these instruments. The fair values of receivables from related parties are not practicable to estimate, based upon the related party nature of the underlying transactions.
The fair values of notes and loans payable to non-related parties approximate their carrying values because of the short maturities of these instruments. The fair value of long-term debt to non-related parties approximates carrying values, net of discounts applied, based on market rates currently available to the Company.
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, 2013 and March 31, 2012, as the impact of the potential common shares, which totaled approximately 40,073,500 (March 31, 2013) and 4,563,000 (March 31, 2012), would be anti-dilutive and decrease loss per share. Therefore, diluted loss per share presented for the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012 is equal to basic loss per share.
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 on product sales 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. Fee revenues for research and development contracts are typically recognized on milestone dates outlined in the contracts. In instances where definable dates are not outlined, fee revenue is recognized when received.
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 reviewed accounting pronouncements issued during the three months ended March 31, 2013, and no pronouncements were adopted.

Note 3: Related Party
Related Party Accounts Payable
The Company's president and treasurer accrue a monthly management fee from the Company of $8,000 and 2,000 and from AFPI of $7,500 and $3,500, respectively, for their services as managers.

AlumiFuel Power Corporation Convertible Promissory Notes
Convertible Notes and Debentures with Embedded Derivatives:
From time-to-time, we issue convertible promissory notes and debentures with conversion features that we have determined represent an embedded derivative as they are convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. Accordingly, these notes 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 for separately as derivatives with a corresponding value recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the fair value of these derivative instruments are recorded as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet with the corresponding amount recorded as a discount to the notes in the period in which they are issued. Such discount is capitalized and amortized over the life of the notes. The change in the fair value of the liability for derivative contracts is credited to other income (expense) in the consolidated statements of operations at the end of each quarter. The face amount of the corresponding notes are stripped of their conversion feature due to the accounting for the conversion feature as a derivative, which is recorded using the residual proceeds to the conversion option attributed to the debt.

2009/2010 Convertible Debentures
In September 2009 through January 2010 we issued $435,000 of 6% unsecured convertible debentures in transactions with private investors (the “Debentures”). We received net proceeds from the Debentures of $363,190 after debt issuance costs of $71,810 paid to the placement agent. Additionally, the placement agent received a one-time issuance of 4,500 shares of our $0.001 par value common stock valued at $117,000 or $26.00 per share, the market price for our common stock on the date of issuance.
Among other terms of the offering, the Debentures were originally due in January 2013, but have been extended to December 31, 2013 (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 in the case of certain corporate actions.
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 with a default interest rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum. The Company may redeem the Debentures for an amount now equal to 131%.
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 agent 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. As of the filing of this report the Company has approved, but not completed, a reverse stock split.
The debt issuance costs of $188,810 are being amortized over the three year term of the Debentures or such shorter period as the debentures may be outstanding. Accordingly, as the debentures are converted to common stock, that amount of debt issuance costs attributable to the amounts converted will be accelerated and expensed as of the applicable conversion dates. As of December 31, 2012, $188,080 of these costs had been expensed as debt issuance costs.
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.
The fair value of the Debentures were calculated at issue date utilizing the following assumptions:

As of December 31, 2012, the total face value of the Debentures outstanding was $47,000 following conversions made prior to that date.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the debenture holders converted a total of $37,000 in face value of the debentures to 2,466,667 shares of our common stock, or $0.015 per share. As a result of these transactions, the Company recorded a decrease to the derivative liability of $49,333 and as of March 31, 2013, the total face value of the Debentures outstanding was $10,000.
At March 31, 2013 the Company revalued the derivative liability balance of the remaining outstanding Debentures. Therefore, for the period from their issuance to March 31, 2013, the Company has recorded an expense and decreased the previously recorded liabilities by $492,857 resulting in a derivative liability balance of $13,333 at March 31, 2013.

The note is convertible into shares of our common stock at a 50% discount to the lowest three trading prices in the ten days prior to conversion.

September 2012 Convertible Note
In September 2012 we issued $35,000 of 6% unsecured convertible debenture with a private investor (the “Sept Debenture”).
Among other terms of the offering, the Sept Debenture is due in September 2015 (the “Maturity Date”), unless prepayment of the Sept Debenture is required in certain events, as called for in the agreements. The Sept Debenture is convertible at a conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) for each share of common stock equal to 50% 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 Sept Debenture provides for adjustments in the case of certain corporate actions.
The Sept 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 with a default interest rate of eighteen percent (18%) per annum. The Company may redeem the Sept Debenture for an amount equal to 120% within 90 days of issuance, 130% between 91 and 120 days of issuance, and 140% if 121 days or more after issuance. 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 Sept Debenture.
Debt issuance costs totaling $11,500 are being amortized over the three year term of the Sept Debenture or such shorter period as the Sept Debenture may be outstanding. Accordingly, as the Sept Debenture is converted to common stock, that amount of debt issuance costs attributable to the amounts converted will be accelerated and expensed as of the applicable conversion dates. As of March 31, 2013, $1,917 of these costs had been expensed as debt issuance costs.
The beneficial conversion feature (an embedded derivative) included in the Sept Debenture resulted in an initial debt discount of $35,000 and an initial loss on the valuation of derivative liabilities of $35,000 for a derivative liability balance of $70,000 at issuance.

During the six month period ended June 30, 2012, the Company entered into four separate note agreements with an institutional investor for the issuance of a convertible promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $134,000 on the following dates and in the following amounts (together the "2012 Convertible Notes"):

4/12/12 | $32,500 | January 16, 2013 |
5/10/12 | $32,500 | February 13, 2013 |
Among other terms, the 2012 Convertible Notes are due on the dates above, unless prepayment is required in certain events, as called for in the agreements. The 2012 Convertible Notes are convertible at a conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) for each share of common stock equal to 50% of the average of the lowest three trading prices per share of the Company’s common stock for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion. In addition, the 2012 Convertible Notes 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.
The outstanding principal balance the 2012 Convertible Notes bear interest at eight percent (8%) per annum, payable in cash or shares of our common stock at the Conversion Price. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the 2012 Convertible Notes), the Company is required to pay interest to the Holder of each outstanding note at twenty-two percent (22%) per annum and the Holder may at its option declare the 2012 Convertible Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, to be immediately due and payable.

Further terms called for the Company to maintain sufficient authorized shares reserved for issuance under the 2012 Convertible Notes.
We received net proceeds from the 2012 Convertible Notes of $124,000 after debt issuance costs of $10,000 paid for lender legal fees. These debt issuance costs will be amortized over the terms of the 2012 Convertible Notes or such shorter period as the Notes may be outstanding. Accordingly, as the 2012 Convertible Notes are converted to common stock prior to their expiration date, that amount of debt issuance costs attributable to the amounts converted will be accelerated and expensed as of the applicable conversion dates. As of March 31, 2013, $9,723 of these costs had been expensed as debt issuance costs.
The beneficial conversion feature (an embedded derivative) included in the 2012 Convertible Notes resulted in total initial debt discounts of $134,000 and a total initial loss on the valuation of derivative liabilities of $96,167 for a derivative liability balance of $230,167 total for their issuances.

October 2012 Convertible Notes
In October 2012 we issued $10,000 of 8% unsecured convertible debenture with a private investor at which time the investor also purchased $50,000 in existing notes from one of our third party note holders (together the “October Notes”).
Among other terms of the offering, the October Notes are due in October 2013 (the “Maturity Date”), unless prepayment is required in certain events, as called for in the agreements. The October Notes are convertible at a conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) for each share of common stock equal to 50% of the lowest closing price per share of the Company’s common stock for the thirty (30) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion. In addition, the October Notes provides for adjustments in the case of certain corporate actions.
The October Notes bear interest at eight percent (8%) per annum, payable (i) upon conversion, or (ii) on the Maturity Date, in cash or shares of our common stock at the Conversion Price with a default interest rate of eighteen to twenty-two percent (18%-22%) per annum. The Company may redeem the October Notes for an amount equal to 140% within 180 days of issuance. 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 October Notes.
Debt issuance costs totaling $1,000 are being amortized over the three year term of the October Notes or such shorter period as the October Notes may be outstanding. Accordingly, as the October Notes is converted to common stock, that amount of debt issuance costs attributable to the amounts converted will be accelerated and expensed as of the applicable conversion dates. As of December 31, 2012, $208 of these costs had been expensed as debt issuance costs.
The beneficial conversion feature (an embedded derivative) included in the October Notes resulted in an initial debt discount of $60,000 and an initial loss on the valuation of derivative liabilities of $60,000 for a derivative liability balance of $120,000 at issuance.

Note 5: Notes Receivable
At March 31, 2013 there was $254,353 in loans due the Company from FastFunds Financial Corporation (“FFFC”), an affiliate in which the Company is a minority stockholder, to assist FFFC in payment of its ongoing payment obligations and protect the Company's investment. Of this amount, $1,400 was advanced in the quarter ended March 31, 2013. During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, FFFC was able to repay $18,250 in principal on these loans. Each of these loans carries an interest rate of 8% per annum and are due on demand. Management of the Company evaluated the likelihood of payment on these notes and has determined that an allowance of the entire balance due is appropriate. Accordingly, the Company recorded bad debt expense of $1,400 the quarter ended March 31, 2013 and that is included in other selling, general and administrative expenses on the Company’s statement of operations for that period. The Company has allowed for all interest due on these notes and did not record any interest receivable during the years quarter ended March 31, 2013. As of March 31, 2012, FFFC owed the Company $311,453 and paid $1,780 in interest. Given the uncertainty of payments on these notes, if payments are received they are considered recovery of allowed for debt in the case of principal and recorded in "other income (expense)" in our statements of operations while interest income is offset against interest expense.
As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had $8,000 due from an affiliated publicly traded company. This note carries interest at 8% per annum and is due on demand. The entire principal balance of $8,000 plus $901 and $102 in accrued interest remained receivable at March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Note 7: Commitments and Contingencies
Payroll Liabilities
Following the formation of API in May 2008, 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, API paid wages to these employees without the benefit of a payroll management service. Upon API'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. During the period from May to October 2008, the Company recorded $52,576 in payroll liabilities due from wages paid to its employees and has been recording estimated penalties and interest quarterly on the balance for an estimated balance due at December 31, 2012 of $118,647. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 an additional expense of $3,805 was recorded for a total accrued balance of $122,452 as of that date. This amount is included on the balance sheets at March 31, 2013 as “payroll liabilities”.
Office Lease Agreement
Effective on July 1, 2009, API entered into a lease for office and laboratory space in the University City Science Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Totaling approximately 2,511 square feet, the term of the agreement was for five years and six months expiring on December 31, 2014. In addition, the Company was obligated to pay certain common area maintenance fees of $1,886 per month during 2011.
In November 2011, the Company determined it could no longer sustain the significant payments under the lease and vacated the premises. On November 30, 2011, API was notified that a Judgment by Confession had been entered against it in the Court of Common Pleas Philadelphia County in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania by Wexford-UCSC II, L.P., its former landlord. The Judgment by Confession assesses total damages of $428,232, which is comprised of the following: $73,995 for unpaid monthly rent, maintenance fees, interest and late charges for the period through November 30, 2011; attorney's fees of $5,000; rent and maintenance charges of $10,020 for December 2011; and the value of future rent payments for the period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2014 of $339,217. The complaint alleges a breach of contract and event of default for API related to this lease. The Company has had talks with the landlords counsel to settle the judgment however no agreement has been reached. As of March 31, 2013, the Company had recorded $67,429 in rent expense that is included in "accounts payable, other" as of that date. The additional judgment amount totaling $360,803 has been expensed as "litigation contingency" on our statements of operations and is recorded under the same name as a liability on balance sheets and at March 31, 2013.
Capital Leases
In April 2010 we leased a copier for a period of three years at $129 per month. The contract includes a buyout at lease end for $1 at which time we will own the machine. We have capitalized the value of this machine at January 1, 2011 in the amount of $3,499 based on the then current value with an expected life of 5 years from the lease date and are depreciating this asset over that period. That amount was included in "property and equipment" under the assets portion of our balance sheet with the corresponding liability for future payments placed under "capital leases" in our liabilities. As each monthly payment was made, the amount under capital leases was reduced to reflect the balance due under the lease. As of March 31, 2013 payment, the lease was completed. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, a total of $387 was reduced in the "capital leases" account for payments made during the period.
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.

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, 2012 and 2011.
The independent auditors’ reports on our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 include 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, 2012.
While we have prepared 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, our auditors have raised a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in their audit reports for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.
The Company 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. Our 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. Our steam/hydrogen output is also being designed to drive turbine-based underwater propulsion systems and auxiliary power systems. We have 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.
We have completed the design and engineering modifications necessary and have begun limited production of our Portable Balloon Inflation Systems. In October 2011, we announced we were awarded a contract to deliver a PBIS-2000 Portable Balloon Inflation System to the Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC). This unit was delivered in April 2012 and included 360 cartridges as well as a spare parts kit, a tool kit and two days of training by our engineers at the customer’s site. The PBIS-2000 expands the capability of our current family of hydrogen generators, which includes the PBIS-1000 (for 100g balloons) and the PBIS-lite (designed for 30g pieball balloons). The PBIS-2000 generates sufficient hydrogen to inflate a 200g weather balloon within 20 minutes using up to 6 AlumiFuel Cartridges contained in a single reactor vessel; this represents significantly more hydrogen than is required for the PBIS-1000. While the footprint, weight and safety features of the PBIS-2000 are similar to the PBIS-1000, the configuration has been modified such that the system operates at ambient (atmospheric) pressure (below 10 psig) so that the user never has to deal with a high pressure system such as the industry standard K-Cylinder (2265 psig). In September 2012, the Company received a purchase order from the U.S. Air Force to make certain modifications to the PBIS-2000 previously delivered. The unit was returned to the Air Force in the first quarter of 2013 and we booked $13,440 in revenue received for this work.
During the three month period ended March 31, 2013, we transferred all of the assets related to our hydrogen generation business to a new wholly owned subsidiary, Novofuel, Inc. ("Novofuel") in exchange for 12,000,000 shares of Novofuel common stock. Novofuel was formed as a separate entity in anticipation of executing a transaction with Genport, srl of Italy, which would merge its wholly-owned operating subsidiary into Novofuel. The Company and Genport have executed a Term Sheet and the parties are moving forward toward completion of a definitive agreement through which both parties would own 50% of Novofuel before any future financings.
If completed, the merger would combine and integrate the synergistic technologies, Intellectual Property, products, revenues, engineering staffs, manufacturing operations, marketing, sales and services activities of both companies. The focus of Novofuel would be to pursue and capture backup and portable power applications and business opportunities in the U.S., Europe. The new entity would pursue the engineering development of an integrated 5kW backup power system for telecom facilities.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
To address the going concern situation addressed in our financial statements at December 31, 2012 and 2011, we anticipate we will require over the next twelve months approximately $900,000 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 the potential for very minimal cash flows from operations through the production of PBIS reactors and the resultant sales of AlumiFuel cartridges. As in 2012, during 2013 we anticipate a significant amount of capital resources will come from convertible debt instruments. These instruments typically contain a significant discount to the market value of our common stock of up to 65% causing the issuance of shares below market value prices causing substantial dilution to our stockholders.
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, we received a net of approximately $131,210 from our financing activities, primarily from the issuance of notes payable from various sources totaling $162,830 including $32,000 in convertible notes. This was offset by payments on notes payable totaling $32,231. This compared to cash provided by financing activities of $268,882 in the three months ended March 31, 2012 derived from proceeds from the issuance of notes payable totaling $362,000, proceeds from sales of our common stock of $11,000, sales of AFPI common stock by parent of $21,258. This was offset by payments on notes payable of $23,514 along with payments on redemption of preferred stock of $117,254.
In the three month period ended March 31, 2013, net cash used in operating activities was $132,220. This compared to net cash used in operating activities of $269,147 for three month period ended March 31, 2012. The 2013 amount included a $516,768 net loss that included approximately $246,292 in non-cash charges and credits to operating assets and liabilities primarily from non-cash interest expense of $177,367 primarily from our convertible notes as well as amortization of discount on debentures payable totaling $90,513. This compares to a net loss of $933,199 in the three months ended March 31, 2012 that included a non-cash loss of approximately $357,752 primarily from stock based compensation expense of $592,000 related primarily to the change in fair value of derivative liability of $330,152 along with amortization of discount on debentures payable of $176,511 both related to our convertible debt.
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. This includes no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to raise capital through sales of AFPI common stock on the European markets. Our inability to access various capital markets or acceptable financing could have a material adverse 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 instruments and equity financing to insure the operation of our business. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or equity related securities such as convertible notes, which is expected to be our primary source of increased capital, the issuance of such securities has resulted and will continue to result in significant dilution to our current shareholders.

(b) Results of Operations
Three Month Period ended March 31, 2013 vs. March 31, 2012
In September 2012, the Company received a purchase order from the United State Air Force Strategic Operations Command to make modification to a previously delivered PBIS-2000 portable balloon inflation device. This order was delivered in the first quarter of 2013 and accordingly revenue of $13,440 for these modifications was recorded in the first quarter of 2013. We had previously recorded an asset as
"Work in progress" on our balance sheet at December 31, 2012, reflecting the cost of our work to modify PBIS-2000 through that date. This amount included parts, labor and other expenses directly related to modifications to the PBIS-2000 unit. Upon payment for the unit in the quarter ended March 31, 2013, a total of $21,421 for costs related to the modifications to the PBIS-2000 was expensed and is presented on our statements of operations a "Cost of goods sold".
For the three month period ended March 31, 2013, our total revenue was $13,440 from the PBIS-2000 modifications versus $0 in the 2012 period. The costs of goods sold was $21,4212 for gross loss of $7,981 for the period. There was no cost of goods sold during the 2012 period. The loss from operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 was $218,397 versus $337,365 in the three month period ended March 31, 2012. As discussed more fully below, "other" SG&A expenses decreased significantly in the 2013 period as compared to the 2012 period accounting for a majority of the decrease. Due to a credit from a vendor of an overcharge from 2011, reactor production costs were $(7,088) for the three months ended March 32, 2012 with no similar credit or expense in 2013. The losses included $83,854 and $84,360 in 2012 and 2012, respectively, comprised of related party expense that included officer and key employee management fees as well as rent paid to related parties.
A total of $122,976 and $244,331 for “other” SG&A expenses in the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, was comprised of the following:
Three months ended March 31, 2013 | Three months ended March 31, 2012 | |||||||
General and administrative | $ | 29,227 | $ | 56,568 | ||||
Salaries and employee benefits | 58,550 | 96,303 | ||||||
Legal and accounting | 8,500 | 14,100 | ||||||
Bad debt expense (recovery) | (16,850 | ) | 3,875 | |||||
Professional services | 43,549 | 73,485 | ||||||
$ | 122,976 | $ | 244,331 |
The “other” SG&A expense during the three months ended March 31, 2013 included a decrease in all categories as the Company limited its operations due to lack of sufficient working capital. The Company recovered $16,850 in bad debt expense from payments received on notes receivable from FFFC in 2013 versus expense of $3,875 in the 2012 period.
The company recorded $(298,370) in “other income (expense)” during the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $(595,834) in the three months ended March 31, 2012. This decrease is primarily attributed to fair value adjustments of derivative liabilities related to the Company's various convertible notes as the Company's stock price decreased and remained stable compared to the prior period resulting in a decreased change in the derivative liability. The Company experienced decreases in interest expense in the 2013 period versus the 2012 period as well as for beneficial conversion features on debt converted to stock for the difference in the conversion price versus the market price on the conversion date again because of decreased fluctuations in the market price of the Company's common stock in the 2013 period.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
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, 2013 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.
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.
