1. BUSINESS
Background
Information
MagneGas
Corporation (the “Company”), formerly 4307, Inc., was organized in the state of
Delaware on December 9, 2005 for the purpose of locating and negotiating with a
business entity for a combination.
On April
2, 2007 (the "Effective Date"), pursuant to the terms of a Stock Purchase
Agreement, Clean Energies Tech Co. purchased a total of 100,000 shares of the
issued and outstanding common stock of the Company from Michael Raleigh, the
sole officer, director and shareholder of the Company, for an aggregate of
$30,000 in cash and the assumption of liabilities ($2,500). The total of 100,000
shares represented all of the shares of outstanding common stock of the Company
at the time of transfer.
Prior to
the above transaction, Clean Energies Tech Co and the Company were essentially
shell companies that were unrelated, with no assets, minimal liabilities, and no
operations. As a result, the 100% change in control was recorded as a
private equity transaction, and no goodwill was recorded, as no assets were
acquired and minimal liabilities were assumed. On May 12, 2007,
subsequent to the date of purchase, 67,052,000 shares of common stock were
issued to founding members of the organization. As the company
determined that the shares had no value, stock and additional paid in capital
were increased and decreased by the par value of the stock issued.
Business
Operations
Since the
acquisition, the Company has adopted the operating plan and mission which is to
provide services in cleaning and converting contaminated waste. A process has
been developed which transforms contaminated waste through a proprietary
incandescent machine. The result of the product is to carbonize waste for normal
disposal. A by product of this process will produce an alternative biogas
source. The patented proprietary technology is owned by the
Company.
Business
Development
To meet
our need for cash we raised money from a regulation D 506 Offering for U.S.
citizens and Regulation S for non-U.S. citizens. The company has received
a loan of $100,000 from a large shareholder subsequent to the year end for
working capital purposes. We believe we will have sufficient working
capital to meet our basic operational needs for the next twelve
months. In order to achieve our full operational expansion plan, we
will need to raise additional capital. We have retained the services
of a Investment firm for this purpose and are seeking to raise up to $10 million
in various stages of private equity funding. In addition, we will aggressively
pursue funding through federal and state grant programs being made available as
a result of the federal stimulus program. If we are unable to
generate meaningful revenues during the next twelve months, or if we are unable
to make a reasonable profit after twelve months, we may have to raise additional
capital or cease operations. If we need additional cash and cannot raise
it we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash, or
cease operations entirely.
Employees
We
presently have no full-time employees and one part-time
employee. We currently have leased employees and independent
technicians perform production and other duties, as required.
Dr.
Santilli, our Chief Scientist and key employee, has provided services in
exchange for stock. Dr. Santilli declined to take any salary until
the Company generated meaningful revenue and profits.
Richard
Connolly, our President, has provided services under consulting
contract. Additionally, he has received compensation in the form of
stock.
We
currently have no other key employees.
ITEM 1A. RISK
FACTORS
We have a
limited operating history that can be used to evaluate us, and the likelihood of
our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties,
complications and delays that we may encounter because we are a small business.
As a result, we may not be profitable and we may not be able to generate
sufficient revenue to develop as we have planned.
Our
ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow will be
dependent upon:
·
|
Management’s
ability to maintain the technology skills for our conversion
services;
|
·
|
The
Company’s ability to keep abreast of the changes by the government
agencies and law;
|
-1-
·
|
Our
ability to attract customers who require the services we offer;
and
|
·
|
Our
ability to generate revenues through the sale of our services to potential
clients who need our services.
|
Based
upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods
because we will be incurring expenses and not generating sufficient revenues to
cover our expenses. We cannot be sure that we will be successful in
generating revenues in the future. Failure to generate sufficient revenues
will cause us to go out of business and any investment in our Company would be
lost.
Managing
a small public company involves a high degree of risk. Few small public
companies ever reach market stability and we will be subject to oversight from
governing bodies and regulations that will be costly to meet. Our present
officers and directors do not have any experience in managing a fully reporting
public company so we may be forced to obtain outside consultants to assist with
our meeting these requirements. These outside consultants are expensive
and can have a direct impact on our ability to be profitable. This will make an
investment in our Company a highly speculative and risky investment.
While the
Company is attempting to disclose all of the potential risks associated with an
investment in the Company, there can be no assurance that all of the risks are
visible to management. Events occurring in the future may be additional
risks to an investment in the Company which are currently
unforeseen.
We
will require financing to achieve our current business strategy and our
inability to obtain such financing could prohibit us from executing our business
plan and cause us to slow down our expansion of operations.
We will
need to raise additional funds through public or private debt or sale of equity
to achieve our current plan of operations. Such financing may not be available
when needed. Even if such financing is available, it may be on terms that are
materially adverse to your interests with respect to dilution of book value,
dividend preferences, liquidation preferences, or other terms. We will
require additional funds estimated at approximately $10,000,000 in order to
significantly expand our business as set forth in our plan of operations. These
funds may not be available or, if available, will be on commercially reasonable
terms satisfactory to us. We may not be able to obtain financing if and when it
is needed on terms we deem acceptable. The additional funds would be
utilized for the manufacturing of additional PlasmaArcFlow processors, which
byproducts would be marketed to the target market end
users.
If we are
unable to obtain financing on reasonable terms, we could be forced to delay or
scale back our plans for expansion. In addition, such inability to obtain
financing on reasonable terms may delay the execution of our plan to expand our
operations.
We
have a limited operating history that you can use to evaluate us, and the
likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses,
difficulties, complications and delays that we may encounter because we are a
small development stage enterprise. As a result, we may not be
profitable and we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to develop as
we have planned.
We were
incorporated in Delaware in December of 2005. We have no significant assets or
financial resources. The likelihood of our success must be considered in light
of the expenses and difficulties in converting liquid wastes into a clean
biogas, recruiting and keeping clients and obtaining financing to meet the needs
of our plan of operations. Since we have a limited operating history we may
not be profitable and we may not be able to generate sufficient revenues to meet
our expenses and support our anticipated activities.
Failure
to comply with government regulations will severely limit our sales
opportunities and future revenue
Failure
to obtain operating permits, or otherwise to comply with federal and state
regulatory and environmental requirements, could affect our abilities to market
and sell the PlasmaArcFlow system and could substantially reduce the value of
your investment and the market price of our common stock.
We and
our customers may be required to comply with a number of federal, state and
local laws and regulations in the areas of safety, health and environmental
controls. In as much as we intend to market the PlasmaArcFlow system
internationally, we will be required to comply with laws and regulations and,
when applicable, obtain permits in those other countries.
We can
not be certain that required permits and approvals will be obtained; that new
environmental regulations will not be enacted or that if they are enacted, our
customers and we can meet stricter standards of operation or obtain additional
operating permits or approvals.
Our
patented technology is unproven on a large-scale industrial basis and could fail
to perform in an industrial production environment.
-2-
The
technologies which we are pursuing for Magnegas production from liquid waste
have never been utilized on a large-scale industrial basis. All of the tests
which we have conducted to date with respect to our technologies have been
performed on limited quantities, and we cannot assure you that the same or
similar results could be obtained on a large-scale industrial basis. We have
never utilized these Magnegas technologies under the conditions or in the
volumes that will be required on a large scale and cannot predict all of the
difficulties that may arise. In addition, our technology has never
operated at a volume level required to be profitable. As our product
is an alternative to Natural Gas, the unstable price of Natural Gas will impact
our ability to become profitable and to sell cost competitive
fuel. It is possible that the technologies, when used, may require
further research, development, design and testing prior to implementation of a
larger-scale commercial application. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that
these technologies will perform successfully on a large-scale commercial basis
or that they will be profitable to us or that our fuel will be cost
competitive in the market.
Our
future success is dependent, in part, on the performance and continued service
of Rich Connelly, our President, and Dr. Ruggero Maria Santilli, our CEO.
Without their continued service, we may be forced to interrupt or eventually
cease our operations.
We are
presently dependent to a great extent upon the experience, abilities and
continued services of Rich Connelly, our President and Dr. Ruggero Maria
Santilli, our CEO. We currently only have an employment agreement with Dr.
Santilli and do not have an employment agreement with other officers and
directors. The loss of either of their services would delay our business
operations substantially.
The
success of our business depends, in part, upon proprietary technologies and
information which may be difficult to protect and may be perceived to infringe
on the intellectual property rights of third parties.
We
believe that the identification, acquisition and development of proprietary
technologies are key drivers of our business. Our success depends, in part, on
our ability to obtain patents, maintain the secrecy of our proprietary
technology and information, and operate without infringing on the proprietary
rights of third parties. We cannot assure you that the patents of others will
not have an adverse effect on our ability to conduct our business, that the
patents that provide us with competitive advantages or will not be challenged by
third parties, that we will develop additional proprietary technology that is
patentable or that any patents issued to us will provide us with competitive
advantages or will not be challenged by third parties. Further, we cannot assure
you that others will not independently develop similar or superior technologies,
duplicate elements of our biomass technology or design around it.
In order
to successfully commercialize our proprietary technologies, it is possible that
we may need to acquire licenses to, or to contest the validity of, issued or
pending patents or claims of third parties. We cannot assure you that any
license acquired under such patents would be made available to us on acceptable
terms, if at all, or that we would prevail in any such contest. In addition, we
could incur substantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us
for alleged infringement of another party's patents or in defending the validity
or enforceability of our patents, or in bringing patent infringement suits
against other parties based on our patents.
In
addition to the protection afforded by patents, we also rely on trade secrets,
proprietary know-how and technology that we seek to protect, in part, by
confidentiality agreements with our prospective joint venture partners,
employees and consultants. We cannot assure you that these agreements will not
be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any such breach, or that
our trade secrets and proprietary know-how will not otherwise become known or be
independently discovered by others.
We
have the potential risk of product liability which may subject us to litigation
and related costs
Our
PlasmaArcFlow system will be utilized in a variety of industrial and other
settings, and will be used to handle materials resulting from the user's
generation of liquid waste. The equipment will therefore be subject to
risks of breakdowns and malfunctions, and it is possible that claims for
personal injury and business losses arising out of these breakdowns and
malfunctions will be made against us. Our insurance may be
insufficient to provide coverage against all claims, and claims may be made
against us even if covered by our insurance policy for amounts substantially in
excess of applicable policy limits. Such an event could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
Because
we are smaller and have fewer financial and other resources than many
alternative fuel companies, we may not be able to successfully compete in the
very competitive alternative fuel industry.
Fuel is a
commodity. There is significant competition among existing fuel producers. Our
business faces competition from a number of producers that can produce
significantly greater volumes of fuel than we can or expect to produce,
producers that can produce a wider range of products than we can, and producers
that have the financial and other resources that would enable them to expand
their production rapidly if they chose to. These producers may be able to
achieve substantial economies of scale and scope, thereby substantially reducing
their fixed production costs and their marginal productions costs. If these
producers are able to substantially reduce their marginal production costs, the
market price of fuel may decline and we may be not be able to produce biogas at
a cost that allows us to operate profitably. Even if we are able to operate
profitably, these other producers may be substantially more profitable than us,
which may make it more difficult for us to raise any financing necessary for us
to achieve our business plan and may have a materially adverse effect on the
market price of our common stock.
-3-
Costs
of compliance with burdensome or changing environmental and operational safety
regulations could cause our focus to be diverted away from our business and our
results of operations to suffer.
Liquid
waste disposal and fuel production involves the discharge of potential
contaminants into the water and air. As a result, we are subject to
complicated environmental regulations of the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency and regulations and permitting requirements of the various states. These
regulations are subject to change and such changes may require additional
capital expenditures or increased operating costs. Consequently, considerable
resources may be required to comply with future environmental
regulations. We did not incur any capital expenditures for
environmental control in 2007 or 2008 and we do not currently expect to incur
material capital expenditures for environmental controls in this or the
succeeding fiscal year In addition, our production plants could be
subject to environmental nuisance or related claims by employees, property
owners or residents near the plants arising from air or water discharges
Environmental and public nuisance claims, or tort claims based on emissions, or
increased environmental compliance costs could significantly increase our
operating costs.

Rd, Tarpon Springs, FL 34689 and the telephone number is (727) 934-3448.
The property is a commercial property for our production facility with
attached office.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are
not engaged in any litigation, and we are unaware of any claims or complaints
that could result in future litigation. We will seek to minimize
disputes with our customers but recognize the inevitability of legal action in
today’s business environment as an unfortunate price of conducting
business.

7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Cautionary Notice Regarding
Forward Looking Statements
The
information contained in Item 7 contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Actual results may
materially differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a
result of certain risks and uncertainties set forth in this report. Although
management believes that the assumptions made and expectations reflected in the
forward-looking statements are reasonable, there is no assurance that the
underlying assumptions will, in fact, prove to be correct or that actual results
will not be different from expectations expressed in this report.
-5-
We desire
to take advantage of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This filing contains a number of forward-looking
statements which reflect management’s current views and expectations with
respect to our business, strategies, products, future results and events, and
financial performance. All statements made in this filing other than statements
of historical fact, including statements addressing operating performance,
events, or developments which management expects or anticipates will or may
occur in the future, including statements related to distributor channels,
volume growth, revenues, profitability, new products, adequacy of funds from
operations, statements expressing general optimism about future operating
results, and non-historical information, are forward looking statements. In
particular, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,”
“may,” variations of such words, and similar expressions identify
forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such
statements, and their absence does not mean that the statement is not
forward-looking. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks
and uncertainties, including those discussed below. Our actual results,
performance or achievements could differ materially from historical results as
well as those expressed in, anticipated, or implied by these forward-looking
statements. We do not undertake any obligation to revise these forward-looking
statements to reflect any future events or circumstances.
Readers
should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are
based on management’s current expectations and projections about future events,
are not guarantees of future performance, are subject to risks, uncertainties
and assumptions (including those described below), and apply only as of the date
of this filing. Our actual results, performance or achievements could differ
materially from the results expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking
statements. Factors which could cause or contribute to such differences include,
but are not limited to, the risks to be discussed in our Annual Report on form
10-K and in the press releases and other communications to shareholders issued
by us from time to time which attempt to advise interested parties of the risks
and factors which may affect our business. We undertake no obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of
new information, future events, or otherwise.
Plan of
Operations
During
the next twelve months, we expect to take the following steps in connection with
the further development of our business and the implementation of our plan of
operations:
Overall
Plan
Our
overall plan of operation for the next twelve months is to install three Plasma
Arc Flow Industrial demonstration centers strategically located throughout the
United States. One will be installed in a municipal sewage treatment
facility to process sewage or sludge, one will be built and used by the company
as a refinery for the metal cutting fuel market and one will be installed as a
pilot plant converting Wind Power to fuel. We have been in
negotiations with a municipality and have received a general letter of
commitment, without a defined start date. These refineries will be
used to promote our core business strategy. During the next twelve
months, we intend to pursue private equity financing of $10 million in various
phases using our shares of common stock. In addition, we will
aggressively pursue funding through federal and state grant programs being made
available as a result of the federal stimulus
program. We will pursue the acquisition of a metal cutting and
welding fuel distribution company to accelerate our market
penetration. In addition, we will conduct research and development
for the catalytic liquefaction of Magnegas, the industrial membrane separation
of hydrogen, the use of Magnegas as an additive to clean coal exhaust and we
will complete our analysis of the automotive market and the financial and
regulatory requirements for us to sell fuel for bi-fuel cars. We will
also pursue all needed federal, state and local regulatory permits necessary to
implement our operational plan. Our plan is crucially dependent on
our ability to raise capital, if we are not able to raise capital, it will not
be possible for us to achieve our operational plan. If we raise only
a portion of our required capital, we will only be in a position to implement a
portion of our plan.
First
Quarter 2009
We will
continue our efforts in selling MagneGas in the metal cutting
market. We will use established relationships with existing metal
cutting fuel wholesalers to distribute MagneGas for this market. We
will fulfill fuel orders from our Atlanta distributor and will pursue agreements
with additional metal cutting fuel distributors throughout the United
States. We will aggressively pursue equity financing and grants
to obtain sufficient capital to allow us to purchase a fuel distributor in our
market, construct refineries and conduct research and development. We
intend to actively recruit new board members, corporate and manufacturing staff
with appropriate experience.
Second
Quarter 2009
We will
begin construction of two PlasmaArcFlow demonstration centers, one to process
sludge at a local municipality and one for the metal cutting and welding fuel
market. We will continue to aggressively pursue MagneGas sales for
the metal cutting market through wholesalers, trade events and from our
marketing and sales consultants. We intend to continue to actively recruit new
board members with appropriate experience and hire a corporate and operational
staff. We expect to complete our capital raise and to identify
potential acquisitions in our market. We will conduct additional
research and development as outlined above.
-6-
Third
Quarter 2009
We will
install our Plasma Arc Flow demonstration center at a local Florida sewage
treatment facility to process human sewage or sludge. We anticipate that we can
complete construction of our metal cutting fuel refinery and will begin
construction of a third refinery with a location to be determined. We
will aggressively pursue MagneGas sales for the metal cutting market through a
marketing plan that fully leverages our demonstration centers and we will hire
additional operational staff and manufacturing staff in anticipation of new
sales and will expand our current facility to accommodate our space
needs. We will continue our research and development
efforts.
Fourth
Quarter 2009
By the
fourth quarter of 2009, we anticipate being fully operational with three
refineries located in various regions of the United States. We will
continue sales of MagneGas in the metal cutting market. We will
aggressively pursue our marketing and sales plan to fully leverage our
demonstration centers. We expect to obtain several service contracts
during this quarter as potential customers view first hand the operation of our
equipment at an industrial level. We will continue to hire operational
staff and manufacturing staff in anticipation of new sales.
Summary
The
foregoing represents our best estimate of our current planning, and is based on
a reasonable assessment of funds we expect to become
available. However, our plans may vary significantly depending upon
the amount of funds raised and status of our business plan. In the event we are
not successful in reaching our initial revenue targets, additional funds will be
required and we would then not be able to proceed with our business plan as
anticipated. Should this occur, we would likely seek additional financing to
support the continued operation of our business.
The
current state of the financial market and the economy has negatively impacted
our ability to raise capital, to generate sales and to achieve our operational
plan. There is no guarantee that these market forces will
change in 2009 and despite management’s best effort we may not be able to raise
capital or increase our fuel sales until the economy and the financial markets
improve.
The
Company has financed its operations primarily through cash generated
by the sale of stock through a private offering and loans from a large
shareholder. We believe we can not currently satisfy our cash
requirements for the next twelve months for our operational plan with our
current cash and expected revenues from our private placement and
sales. However, management plans to increase revenue and obtain
additional financing in order to sustain operations for at least the next twelve
months. We have already sold shares to support our continued operations.
However, completion of our plan of operation is subject to attaining adequate
revenue. We cannot assure investors that adequate revenues will be generated. In
the absence of our projected revenues, we may be unable to proceed with our plan
of operations. Even without significant revenues within the next twelve months,
we still anticipate being able to continue with our present activities, but we
will require financing to potentially achieve our goal of profit, revenue and
growth.
In the
event we are not successful in reaching our initial revenue targets, additional
funds will be required, and we would then not be able to proceed with our
business plan for the development and marketing of our core services. Should
this occur, we would likely seek additional financing to support the continued
operation of our business. We anticipate that depending on market conditions and
our plan of operations, we would incur operating losses in the foreseeable
future. We base this expectation, in part, on the fact that we may not be able
to generate enough gross profit from our services to cover our operating
expenses. Consequently, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability
to continue to operate as a going concern.
As
reflected in the financial statements, we are in the development stage, and have
an accumulated deficit from inception of $1,399,897 and have a negative cash
flow from operations of $229,800 from inception. This raises substantial doubt
about the ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to
continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company's ability to raise
additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do
not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to
continue as a going concern.
At
December 30, 2008 the Company had negative of capital resources in order to meet
current obligations. The Company may rely upon the issuance of common
stock and additional capital contributions from shareholders to fund
administrative expenses until operations generate cash flows sufficient to
support the on-going business.
Management
believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and
implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to
continue as a going concern. We anticipate that we will require approximately
$10,000,000 to fund our plan of operations.
In effort
to achieve revenue plans we have sold MagneGas as a metal cutting MagneGas. We
have received firm orders from four entities for the Magnegas produced from
non-hazardous waste. We have an additional non-binding letter of
intent to process liquid waste based on proposals and our
demonstrations. The non-binding letter of intent includes a defined
time and place with resulting revenue earning structure. To fund this
sale, the firm orders, and existing non-binding letters of intent, the Company
has raised $219,500 in cash proceeds via sales of common stock to date and
raised an additional $70,100 in cash proceeds from a shareholder loans during
2008. Additionally, to deliver on these orders we have the commitment
of six persons dedicated to the fulfillment of orders and it is headed by a well
known industry consultant, whom we have attained to help develop operating
guidelines as well as being instrumental in the marketing and development of our
brand offering.

To expand
understanding of our efforts and progress in generating revenue:
Metal Cutting
Magnegas: Sales commenced on March 2008. Marketing
efforts are being concentrated on industry wholesalers to utilize their
established customer base and distribution channels. Our current
operations in new facilities (previously disclosed month to month agreement)
have been set up for expansion. We estimate current facilities have
capacity for 400-500 bottles to be processed per week. Our new
facilities allow us the flexibility to ramp up for greater volume, as market
interest is anticipated to increase. In the quarter ended December
31, 2008, the company entered into a material definitive agreement with a
regional supplier of metal cutting and welding market. The agreement
defined terms, location and minimum purchase amounts, which should yield a
minimum of $36,000 in the first year.
Letter of Intent: A
non-binding letter of intent was agreed, in principal with a local
municipality's water treatment facility to conduct a six-month plant scale test
of our equipment. Once we have raised sufficient capital, our
existing prototype equipment will be modified for the specifics required for
this project. The initial fuel generated from this project will
be sold in the metal cutting market and tested for various uses by the
city. At this time we are unable to accurately estimate the volume that
will be processed, nor are we able to accuratey predict whether this plant scale
test will be successful. No date has been determined when this
project is to commence and funding will be required to implement this project as
per our plan of operations.
Results of
Operations
For
the twelve months ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and for the period December 9,
2005 (date of inception) through December 31, 2008.
Revenues
For the
twelve months ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and for period December 9, 2005
(date of inception) through December 31, 2008 we generated revenues of $12,225,
$0, and $12,225, respectively from our metal cutting fuel sales
operations. The increase was due to the commencement of our
operations. We have fulfilled our initial orders and are currently
processing and receiving orders from multiple customers. To attract and
attain new customers we have performed demonstrations and sent samples to
prospective accounts. We have completed our set up of our new facilities
to fulfill future anticipated orders.
Operating
Expenses
Operating
costs were incurred in the amount of $968,224, $420,448 and $1,390,522 for the
twelve months ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and for the period December 9,
2005 (date of inception) through December 31, 2008,
respectively. The increase was attributable to the issuance of
common stock for services valued in the amount of $858,167 in 2008 compared to
$245,000 in 2007. Additionally, due to public filing
requirements, there was an increase in professional fees of approximately
$148,000 in 2008 from 2007.
Net Loss
Net
losses incurred in all periods presented have been primarily due to the
operating costs. The Company incurred net losses of $973,624,
$420,621 and $1,399,897 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and
for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through December 31, 2008,
respectively. The increase in the year over year net loss was due
primarily from general and administrative expenses, described above in the
operating expense discussion, particularly professional services and stock-based
compensation. At this time, normal costs of public
filing will continue and it is not known when significant revenues will occur to
off-set these expenses.
Liquidity and Capital
Resources
The
Company is currently financing its operations primarily through cash generated
by the sale of stock through a private offering. We believe we can
not currently satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months with our
current cash and expected revenues from our private placement and
sales. However, management plans to increase revenue and obtain
additional financing in order to sustain operations for at least the next twelve
months. We have already sold shares to support our continued operations.
However, completion of our plan of operation is subject to attaining adequate
revenue. We cannot assure investors that adequate revenues will be generated. In
the absence of our projected revenues, we may be unable to proceed with our plan
of operations. Even without significant revenues within the next twelve months,
we still anticipate being able to continue with our present activities, but we
may require financing to potentially achieve our goal of profit, revenue and
growth.

to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company's ability to raise
additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do

At
December 31, 2008 the Company had minimal cash and negative working capital
resources to meet current obligations. Subsequent to year end the company
received a loan for $100,000 for working capital purposes from a majority
shareholder. The Company may rely upon the issuance of common stock and
additional capital contributions from shareholders to fund administrative
expenses until operations commence.
Management
believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and
implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to
continue as a going concern
Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements
We have
no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Management Consideration of
Alternative Business Strategies
In order
to continue to protect and increase shareholder value management believes that
it may, from time to time, consider alternative management strategies to create
value for the company or additional revenues. Strategies to be
reviewed may include acquisitions; roll-ups; strategic alliances; joint ventures
on large projects; and/or mergers.
Management
will only consider these options where it believes the result would be to
increase shareholder value while continuing the viability of the
company.
Critical Accounting
Policies
The
Company’s significant accounting policies are presented in the Company’s notes
to financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, which
are contained in this filing, the Company’s 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The
significant accounting policies that are most critical and aid in fully
understanding and evaluating the reported financial results include the
following:
The
Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States of America. These principals require
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Management believes that these estimates
are reasonable and have been discussed with the Board of Directors; however,
actual results could differ from those estimates.
The
Company issues restricted stock to consultants for various
services. For these transactions the Company follows the guidance in
EITF 96-18 "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other than
Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or
Services". Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value
of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments
issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of the
common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm
commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is
reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty's performance is
complete.
-9-
In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144,
"Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," long-lived assets
such as property, equipment and identifiable intangibles are reviewed for
impairment whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may
not be recoverable. When required impairment losses on assets to be
held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the
asset. The fair value is determined based on estimates of future cash
flows, market value of similar assets, if available, or independent appraisals,
if required. If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not
recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized
for the difference between the carrying amount and fair value of the
asset. When fair values are not available, the Company estimates fair
value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate
with the risk associated with the recovery of the assets. We did not
recognize any impairment losses for any periods presented.
Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
The
Financial Accounting Standards Board and other standard-setting bodies issued
new or modifications to, or interpretations of, existing accounting standards
during the year. The Company has carefully considered the new pronouncements
that alter previous generally accepted accounting principles and does not
believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the
corporation’s reported financial position or operations in the near
term. These recently issued pronouncements have been addressed in the
footnotes to the financial statements included in this filing.

Report of Independent

Board of
Directors
MagneGas
Corporation
Palm
Harbor, Florida
We have
audited the accompanying balance sheets of MagneGas Corporation (a
development stage enterprise) as of December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related
statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year
ended December 31, 2008 and 2007and for the period December 9, 2005 (date of
inception) through December 31, 2008. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not
required at this time, to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its
internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included
consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for
designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not
for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's
internal controls over financial reporting. Accordingly, we
express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provided a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our
opinion, based on our audit, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of
December 31, 2008 and 2007 and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for the year ended December, 2008, 2007 and for the period December 9, 2005
(date of inception) through December 31, 2008 in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in footnote 3 to the
financial statements, the Company has generated nominal revenue and has not
established operations which raise substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters
are also described in Note 3. These conditions raise substantial doubt
about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

As a
result of the transfer of ownership, effective April 2, 2007, the company
issued 67,052,000 shares of common stock and 2,000 shares of
preferred stock to founding members of the organization. As the
company determined that the common shares had no value, common stock and
additional paid in capital were increased and decreased by the par value of the
common stock.
In
February 2008, the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock, valued at $1
per share, as consideration for exclusive rights of an intangible
license. The intangible license triggered a consulting
agreement and consideration included 100,000 shares of common stock issued at $1
per share.
December
28, 2008, the Company issued 30,000,000 shares of common stock, valued at $.021
per share, as consideration for the purchase of intellectual property
rights.

Notes
to Financial Statements
Three
and Years Ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and
for
the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through December 31,
2008
1. Background
Information
MagneGas
Corporation (the “Company”), formerly 4307, Inc., was organized in the state of
Delaware on December 9, 2005 for the purpose of locating and negotiating with a
business entity for a combination.
On April
2, 2007 (the "Effective Date"), pursuant to the terms of a Stock Purchase
Agreement, Clean Energies Tech Co. purchased a total of 100,000 shares (100%) of
the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company from Michael Raleigh, the
sole officer, director and shareholder of the Company, for an aggregate of
$30,000 in cash and the assumption of liabilities ($2,500). The total of 100,000
shares represented all of the shares of outstanding common stock of the Company
at the time of transfer.
Prior to
the above transaction, Clean Energies Tech Co and the Company were essentially
shell companies that were unrelated, with no assets, minimal liabilities, and no
operations. As a result, the 100% change in control was recorded as a
private equity transaction, and no goodwill was recorded, as no assets were
acquired and minimal liabilities were assumed. On May 12, 2007,
subsequent to the date of purchase, 67,052,000 shares of common stock were
issued to founding members of the organization. As the company determined
that the shares had no value, stock and additional paid in capital were
increased and decreased, respectively, by the par value of the stock
issued.
Since the
acquisition, the Company has adopted the operating plan and mission which is to
provide services in cleaning and converting contaminated waste. A process has
been developed which transforms contaminated waste through a proprietary
incandescent machine. The result of the product is to carbonize waste for normal
disposal. A by product of this process will produce an alternative MagneGas
source. The technology related to this process has been acquired from
a Company, related by common management (see note 9).
2. Development
Stage Enterprise
The
Company has been in the development stage since its formation on December 9,
2005. It has primarily engaged in raising capital to carry out its
business plan, as described above. The Company expects to continue to incur
significant operating losses and to generate negative cash flow from operating
activities while it develops its customer base and establishes itself in the
marketplace. The Company's ability to eliminate operating losses and
to generate positive cash flow from operations in the future will depend upon a
variety of factors, many of which it is unable to control. If the
Company is unable to implement its business plan successfully, it may not be
able to eliminate operating losses, generate positive cash flow, or achieve or
sustain profitability, which would materially adversely affect its business,
operations, and financial results, as well as its ability to make payments on
any obligations it may incur.
3. Going
Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which
contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.
The
Company incurred a net loss of $977,426 and $1,399,897 for the year ended
December 31, 2008 and for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception)
through the period ended December 31, 2008, respectively. As of
December 31, 2008 the Company had $160 of cash with which to satisfy any future
cash requirements. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern. The Company depends upon capital to be
derived from future financing activities such as subsequent offerings of its
common stock or debt financing in order to operate and grow the
business. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful in raising such capital. The key factors that are not
within the Company's control and that may have a direct bearing on operating
results include, but are not limited to, acceptance of the Company's business
plan, the ability to raise capital in the future, the ability to expand its
customer base, and the ability to hire key employees to build and manufacture
such proprietary machines to provide services. There may be other
risks and circumstances that management may be unable to predict.
F-8
The
financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible
future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts
and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of
the Company to continue as a going concern.
4. Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
The
significant accounting policies followed are:
In the
opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring
adjustments necessary for a fair statement of (a) the result of operations for
the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and the period December
9, 2005 (date of inception) through December 31, 2008; (b) the financial
position at December 31, 2008, and (c) cash flows for the twelve month periods
ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and the period December 9, 2005 (date of
inception) through December 31, 2008, have been made.
The
Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States of America. These principals require
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Management believes that these estimates
are reasonable and have been discussed with the Board of Directors; however,
actual results could differ from those estimates.
FIN No.
46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46R”) addresses the
consolidation of entities to which the usual condition (ownership of a majority
voting interest) of consolidation does not apply. This interpretation
focuses on controlling financial interests that may be achieved through
arrangements that do not involve voting interest. If an enterprise
holds a majority of the variable interests of an entity, it would be considered
the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is generally
required to consolidate assets, liabilities and non-controlling interests at
fair value (or at historical cost if the entity is a related party) and
subsequently account for the variable interest as if it were consolidated based
on a majority voting interest. The Company has not identified
any entity that it is a primary beneficiary; therefore no consolidation is
required.
The
Company’s balance sheets include the following financial instruments: cash,
accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable and note payable to
stockholder. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities
approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time
between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization. The
carrying values of the note payable to stockholder approximates fair
value based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for
instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities.
The
majority of cash is maintained with a major financial institution in the United
States. Deposits with this bank may exceed the amount of insurance
provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed
on demand and, therefore, bear minimal risk. The Company considers
all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of six months
or less to be cash equivalents.
Accounts
receivable consist of amounts due for the delivery of MagneGas sales to
customers. Revenue for metal-cutting fuel is recognized when
shipments are made to customers. The Company recognizes a sale when the product
has been shipped and risk of loss has passed to the customer. An allowance
for doubtful accounts is considered to be established for any amounts that may
not be recoverable, which is based on an analysis of the Company’s customer
credit worthiness, and current economic trends. Based on management’s
review of accounts receivable, no allowance for doubtful accounts was considered
necessary. Receivables are determined to be past due, based on
payment terms of original invoices. The Company does not typically
charge interest on past due receivables.
Inventories
are stated at the lower of standard cost or market, which approximates actual
cost. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out
method. Inventory is comprised of filled cylinders of MagneGas and
accessories (regulators and tips) available for sale.
F-9
Equipment
is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method
over estimated useful lives (five years for equipment). The carrying
amount of all long-lived assets is evaluated periodically to determine if
adjustment to the depreciation and amortization period or the unamortized
balance is warranted. Based upon its most recent analysis, the Company believes
that no impairment of equipment existed at December 31, 2008.
During
2008, the Company recorded an intangible license for a total of $727,000 related
to the Company's acquisition of intellectual property secured from a company
related by common management (see Note 9). The Company valued the
license based on the value of the stock issued, as the Company believes that
this is the more reliable measurement. The intellectual property
consists primarily of patents and patent applications, which the Company has
estimated has a useful life of ten years. The estimated amortization
expense for the intangible license is expected to be $48,467 annually over the
next five years and $478,556 in total thereafter.
In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144,
"Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," long-lived assets
such as property, equipment and identifiable intangibles are reviewed for
impairment whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may
not be recoverable. When required impairment losses on assets to be
held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the
asset. The fair value is determined based on estimates of future cash
flows, market value of similar assets, if available, or independent appraisals,
if required. If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not
recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized
for the difference between the carrying amount and fair value of the
asset. When fair values are not available, the Company estimates fair
value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate
with the risk associated with the recovery of the assets. The Company
did not recognize any impairment losses for any periods presented.
In
December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement
of Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”
(SFAS 123R). SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including
grants of employee stock options to be recognized as compensation expense in the
financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over
the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange
for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting
period). The Company had no common stock options or common stock equivalents
granted or outstanding for all periods presented
The
Company issues restricted stock to consultants for various
services. For these transactions the Company follows the guidance in
EITF 96-18 "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other than
Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or
Services". Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value
of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments
issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of the
common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm
commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is
reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty's performance is
complete. The Company recognized consulting expenses and a
corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital related to stock issued for
services. Stock compensation for the twelve months ended December 31,
2008 and 2007 were issued to consultants for past services provided,
accordingly, all shares issued are fully vested, and there is no unrecognized
compensation associated with these transactions. For the twelve
months ended December 31, 2008, the Company entered into a consulting agreement
(see note 9) for services to be rendered over a five year period. The
consulting expense is to be recognized ratably over the requisite service
period.
The
Company invoices it’s customers for the cost of shipping biogas cylinders for
the metal cutting market. Shipping costs are included in the cost of
sales.
The costs
of advertising are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was $8,003
and $0 and $8,003 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and for the period
December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through December 31, 2008,
respectively. Advertising expenses are included in the Company’s
operating expenses.
The
Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income
Taxes,” which requires use of the liability method. SFAS No. 109 provides that
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for
financial reporting purpose, referred to as temporary differences. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities at the end of each period are determined using the
currently enacted tax rates applied to taxable income in the periods in which
the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be settled or
realized.
The
Company follows SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share.” Basic earnings (loss) per
share calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted
average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss)
per share calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the
weighted average number of shares. There are no share equivalents and, thus,
anti-dilution issues are not applicable.

5. Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In
December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141(revised 2007),
Business Combinations,
which replaces SFAS No. 141. The statement retains the purchase
method of accounting for acquisitions, but requires a number of changes,
including changes in the way assets and liabilities are recognized in the
purchase accounting. It also changes the recognition of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed arising from contingencies, requires the
capitalization of in-process research and development at fair value, and
requires the expensing of acquisition-related costs as incurred. SFAS
No. 141(R) is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2009 and will apply
prospectively to business combinations completed on or after that
date.
In
September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.”
SFAS No. 157 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the
assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and
establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to
develop those assumptions. Under the standard, fair value measurements would be
separately disclosed by level within the fair hierarchy. SFAS No. 157 is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early
adoption permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact
on the Company's financial condition or results of its operations.
In
February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities.” SFAS No. 159 permits entities to
choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair
value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities
with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by
measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply
complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim
periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption
of SFAS No. 159 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial
condition or results of its operations.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160; Noncontrolling Interest in
Consolidated Financial Statements, and amendment of ARB 51, which changes
the accounting and reporting for minority interest. Minority interest
will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interest and will be reported as
component of equity separate from the parent's equity, and purchases or sales of
equity interests that do not result in change in control will be accounted for
as equity transactions. In addition, net income attributable to the
noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the date
of the income statement and, upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well
as any interest retained, will be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss
recognized in earnings. SFAS No. 160 is effective for the Company
beginning January 1, 2009 and will apply prospectively, except for the
presentation and disclosure requirements, which will apply
retrospectively. The Company is not part of a consolidating group and
currently is not affected by this pronouncement.
In March
2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 161 requires
additional disclosures related to the use of derivative instruments, the
accounting for derivatives and the financial statement impact of
derivatives. SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after November 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 161 will not impact
the Company's financial statements.
In
May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally
Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS 162”). SFAS 162 identifies the
sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles
used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that
are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (the
GAAP hierarchy). SFAS 162 will become effective 60 days following the
SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to
AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity With
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” The Company does not currently expect
the adoption of SFAS 162 to have a material effect on our results of
operations and financial condition.
In
May 2008, the FASB issued FSP Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) 14-1
“Accounting for Convertible Debt instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon
Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)” (“FSP APB 14-1”). FSP
APB 14-1 requires the issuer of certain convertible debt instruments that
may be settled in cash (or other assets) on conversion to separately account for
the liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the
instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing
rate. FSP APB 14-1 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008 on a retroactive basis. As we do not have convertible
debt at this time, we currently believe the adoption of FSP APB 14-1 will
have no effect on our results of operations and financial
condition.
In April
2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of
Intangible Assets (“FSP FAS 142-3”). FSP FAS 142-3 amends the factors
that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to
determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets (“SFAS 142”). The intent of FSP FAS 142-3 is to improve the
consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS
142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the
asset under SFAS 141(R) and other applicable accounting literature. FSP FAS
142-3 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2008. The Company does not anticipate that the
adoption of FSP FAS 142-3 will have an impact on its results of operations or
financial condition.
F-11
In June
2008, the FASB issued FSP EITF 03-6-1, Determining Whether Instruments Granted
in Share-Based Payment
Transactions Are Participating Securities (“FSP EITF 03-6-1”), which
addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are
participating securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in
the computation of earnings per share under the two-class method described in
SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. FSP EITF 03-6-1 is effective retrospectively
for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning
after December 15, 2008. The adoption of FSP EITF 03-6-1 will not materially
impact the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

sold in the quarter ended June 30, 2008 resulted in a loss of
$2,757. Depreciation of equipment was $520, $173 and $693 for the
years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and for the period December 9, 2005 (date of
inception) through December 31, 2008, respectively.
Additionally,
the Company owns intellectual property, which it is amortizing on a
straight-line basis over the assets useful life. The Company assesses
fair market value for any impairment to the carrying values. As of
December 31, 2008 management concluded that there is no impairment to the
intangible assets Amortization of the intangible assets was $6,111,
$0 and $6,111 for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and for the period
December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through December 31, 2008,
respectively.
7. Income
Tax
The
Company has not recognized an income tax benefit for its operating start-up
losses generated since inception based on uncertainties concerning its ability
to generate taxable income in future periods. The tax benefit for the
periods presented is offset by a valuation allowance established against
deferred tax assets arising from operating losses and other temporary
differences, the realization of which could not be considered more likely than
not. In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets
will be recognized when management considers realization of such amounts to be
more likely than not. As of December 31, 2008, the Company incurred
start-up losses of approximately $454,800. These losses are
capitalized as start up costs for tax purposes, to be amortized when the Company
commences business operations.
The
provision for income taxes is different from that which would be obtained by
applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income before taxes. The

Preferred Stock, voting together, shall appoint the members of the Board of the
Directors. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one
vote.
Founding
contributors were issued 67,052,000 shares during 2007. As
management determined that the Company had negligible value, no value was
attributed to the founders’ shares.
During
year ended December 31, 2008, the company issued 1,543,333 common shares to
various consultants. The Company also issued 727,000 common shares to
secure intellectual property rights and 100,000 common shares under a consulting
agreement, as discussed in footnote 9. During the year ending
December 31, 2008, the Company sold 62,000 common shares at $1.00 per share for
cash. The Company valued all the above shares at the fair market
value per share. From December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through
December 31, 2008, the Company sold 219,500 common shares at $1.00 per share for
cash.
The use
of an initial small production refinery has been contributed by
Dr. Ruggero Santilli, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Scientist, and
Chairman of the Board. The computed fair value of this month to month
rental agreement is $1,870 per month and has been charged to equipment rental
expense in the operating expenses. To reflect the contributed value,
the corresponding entry has been charged to additional paid in capital, and
is included in the statement of stockholders’ equity. Total
contributed value was $11,220 for the year ended December 31, 2008 and for the
period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through December 31,
2008.
9. Related
Party Transactions
The
Company entered into an agreement with a company, Hyfuels, Inc., which secures
intellectual property licensing for North, South, Central America and all
Caribbean Islands ("the
Territories"),. Dr. Ruggero Santilli, Chief Executive Officer,
Chairman of the Board and Chief Scientist of MagneGas Corporation, is also the
Chief Executive Officer, Chief Scientist and President of Hyfuels, Inc so as to
expedite the patent work on behalf of both MagneGas Corporation and Hyfuels,
Inc. It should be noted that Dr. Santilli is not and never has
been a stockholder of Hyfuels, Inc. and is lending his knowledge and expertise
for the mutually beneficial advancement of this technology. This
intellectual property consists of all relevant patents, patent applications,
trademarks and domain names. The agreement became effective February
2008, when the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock valued at $1.00 per
share. The term of the license agreement is in perpetuity for the
above territories with the exception of (i) bankruptcy or insolvency of the
Company (ii) the filing of the Company of a petition for bankruptcy (iii) the
making by the Company of the assignment of the license for the benefit of
creditors (iv) the appointment of a receiver of the Company or any of its assets
which appointment shall not be vacated within 60 days thereafter (v) the filing
of any other petition for the relief from creditors based upon the alleged
bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company which shall not be dismissed within 60
days thereafter. Additionally, the agreement triggered a 5 year consulting
agreement with Dr. Santilli, whose knowledge and expertise of the
technology is essential in the development of the MagneGas product.
The terms of the consulting agreement consist of issuance of common
stock (100,000 shares) and payment of $5,000 per month to Dr. Santilli,
upon the determination by the Board of Directors of MagneGas Corporation of
achieving adequate funding. On December 28, 2008, the company
exercised its’ option to acquire the relevant patents and intellectual property
for the Magnegas Technology for the United States which includes all related
domain names and the Magnegas Trademark. The Company issued
30,000,000 shares of common stock, valued at the fair market trading value of
the stock at the time of purchase, in exchange for the intellectual
property. The Company continues to operate in the remaining countries of
North, South and Central America and the Carribbean Islands under the
intellectual property license with HyFuels, Inc.
In 2007
an advance in the amount of $10,000 was made by a company owned by a
shareholder, for initial deposit for services. There are no repayment
terms to this advance and the amount is payable upon demand.
At
various times during 2008, the Company received advances from a shareholder for
an unsecured promissory note. The total of funds amounted to
approximately $60,000. All funds are at the same terms of the
original shareholder note. These promissory notes have no repayment
date; however it is payable within 30 days of written demand. Payment
is to include accrued simple interest at 4%.
F-13
Beginning
April 2008 the Company entered into a month-to-month lease, at a monthly rate of
$2,500 per month for facilities to occupy approximately 3,000 square feet of a
6,000 square foot building and the use of certain equipment and utilities, as
needed. The facility allows for expansion needs. The
lease is held by a Company that is effectively controlled by
Dr. Santilli.
The use
of an initial small production refinery has been contributed by
Dr. Ruggero Santilli, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Scientist, and
Chairman of the Board. The computed fair value of this month to month
rental agreement is $1,870 per month and has been charged to equipment rental
expense in the operating expenses, beginning in July 2008. To reflect
the contributed value, the corresponding entry has been charged to additional
paid in capital, and is included in the statement of stockholders’
equity. Total contributed value was $11,220 for the year ended
December 31, 2008 and for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception)
through December 31, 2008.
The
amounts and terms of the above transactions may not necessarily be indicative of
the amounts and terms that would have been incurred had comparable transactions
been entered into with independent third parties.
10. Contingencies
and Subsequent Events
From time
to time the Company may be a party to litigation matters involving claims
against the Company. Management believes that there are no current matters
that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results
of operations.
During
the first quarter of 2009, the Company received advances from a shareholder for
an unsecured promissory note. The total of funds amounted to
approximately $100,000. All funds are at the same terms of the
original shareholder note. These promissory notes have no repayment
date; however it is payable within 30 days of written demand. Payment
is to include accrued simple interest at 4%.

ITEM
9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Pursuant
to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”),
the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s
management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief
Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting
officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the
end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the
Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by
the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange
Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods
specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated
and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and
CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure.
Management's
Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
The
management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting for the
Company. Our internal control system was designed to, in general,
provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board regarding the
preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, but because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not
prevent or detect misstatements. 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
management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 3008. The framework used by
management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document
entitled “ Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment,
our management has determined that as of December 31, 3008, the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting was effective for the purposes for
which it is intended.
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered
public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered
public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report
in this annual report.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change
in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the
period covered by this report, fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December
31, 3008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act respecting any director. We have
conducted special Board of Director meetings almost every month since inception.
Each of our directors has attended all meetings either in person or via
telephone conference. We have no standing committees regarding audit,
compensation or other nominating committees. In addition to the
contact information in private placement memorandum, each shareholder will be
given specific information on how he/she can direct communications to the

All communications from shareholders are relayed to the members of the
Board of Directors.

file forms reporting their beneficial ownership of our common stock and
subsequent changes in that ownership with the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission. Such persons are also required to furnish
Coastline Corporate Services, Inc. with copies of all forms so

Based
solely upon a review of copies of such forms filed on Forms 3, 4, and 5, and

Audit Related
Fees
There
were no fees for audit related services for the years ended December 31, 2008
and 2007.
Tax Fees
For the
Company’s fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, we were not billed for
professional services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax
planning.
All Other
Fees
The
Company did not incur any other fees related to services rendered by our
principal accountant for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 and
2007.
Pursuant
to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by
the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
Effective
May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that require
that before our auditor is engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted
non-audit related service, the engagement be:
-approved
by our audit committee; or
-entered
into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the audit
committee, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the
particular service, the audit committee is
informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include
delegation of the audit committee's responsibilities to management.
We do not
have an audit committee. Our entire board of directors pre-approves
all services provided by our independent auditors.
The
pre-approval process has just been implemented in response to the new rules.
Therefore, our board of directors does not have records
of what percentage of the above fees were
pre-approved. However, all of the above services and fees were
reviewed and approved by the entire board of directors either before or after
the respective services were rendered.
