ENERTECK CORPORATION and SUBSIDIARY,
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Enerteck Corporation (“Enerteck”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in EnerTeck’s Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the consolidated financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited consolidated financial statements for fiscal 2017 as reported in the Form 10-K have been omitted. In preparing the accompanying condensed unaudited interim consolidated financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the condensed unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and disclosures of contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Segment Reporting
The Company has one operating segment based on the guidelines of ASC 280, Segment Reporting. The chief operating decision maker considers the marketing of EnerBurn to be the main factor by which operating segments are determined. All revenues, profit and loss metrics, and assets of the operating segment are consistent with the consolidated financial information presented with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as well as the notes thereto.
Inventory
Inventory primarily consists of market ready EnerBurn plus raw materials required to manufacture the products. With the adoption of ASU 2015-11, inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, using the average cost method.
Finished product costs amounted to approximately $32,000 and $52,000 at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, and includes required blending costs to bring our products to their finished state.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable represent uncollateralized obligations due from customers of the Company and are recorded at net realizable value. This value includes an appropriate allowance for estimated uncollectible accounts to reflect any loss anticipated on the accounts receivable balances and charged to the provision for doubtful accounts. The Company calculates this allowance based on historical write-offs, level of past due accounts and relationships with and economic status of the customers. Accounts are written off as bad debts when all collection efforts have failed, and the account is deemed uncollectible. Management has provided allowances for doubtful accounts of approximately $51,000 as of both September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenues when evidence of a completed transaction and customer acceptance exists, and when title passes, if applicable. Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts With Customers, using the modified retrospective adoption approach. As the result of adoption, the Company noted there were no changes or modifications required to previously recorded revenues for 2017.

Table of Contents |
While the Company has had some direct customers over the years, the principal method of selling our product EnerBurn is through the use of independent distributors, for both domestic and international markets. The transaction price for each sale is explicitly stated within the contract with a customer. The Company does not accept returns nor does it provide warranty on its product’s performance, as control of performance is based on the proper utilization by the final user. Normal payment terms for domestic sales to both customers and distributors shipping within the United States are net 30 days. All foreign shipments are cash in advance of shipment from our location. The Company’s sole performance obligation to our customers and distributors is the manufacturing and shipment of EnerBurn. Revenues from sales of the Company’s product are recognized at the point when a customer order has been completed and shipped. Sales of all product are f.o.b. shipping point, with the distributors responsible for the freight and delivery. Revenue from shipments to related party distributors is recognized when our product is sold to unrelated third-party customers. All negotiation on sales contracts between the individual distributor and end customer and are the responsibility of the individual distributor and the amount of mark up above the distributors’ wholesale price per unit is the purview of the distributor.
In the following table, product sales have disaggregation for the nine months ended September 30:

As stated above, the Company does not accept returns nor does it provide warranty on its product’s performance, as control of performance is based on the proper utilization by the final user. The Company periodically tests the product manufactured prior to shipment for its proprietary quality standards and guarantees to the distributors that the product will always maintain the level of strict quality standard that is integral to the performance of its product for the end customer. The Company will provide a Certificate of Analysis, (“C of A”) on each shipment of its product, if requested for the customer. The C of A provides proof that the product is manufactured to meet chemical specifications that insure performance standards.
Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company incurred recurring net losses of approximately $185,000 and $697,000, respectively, as compared to $221,000 and $694,000 for the same periods in 2017. Further, most of the Company’s notes payable are overdue and payment may be demanded at any time. 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 be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s continuation as a going concern is contingent upon its ability to obtain additional financing and to generate revenues and cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis. The Company has been able to obtain cash in the past through private placements and issuance of promissory notes and believes that these avenues remain available to the Company. Management believes that these financings are probable of occurring and mitigating the substantial doubt raised by our historical operating results and satisfying the Company’s estimated liquidity needs 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements. No assurance can be made that these efforts will be successful.
NOTE 2 - LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common stockholders, adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. The calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, respectively, excludes 1,257,555 and 4,986,334 shares and 1,200,879 and 4,986,334 shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants because their effect would be anti-dilutive. Further, the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017 exclude potential shares related to the outstanding convertible notes payable, which if converted, would be anti-dilutive and would have a significant impact on the total number of shares outstanding, once exercised.

NOTE 3 - STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
During the first quarter of 2018, the Company issued 5,227,147 shares of common stock to a shareholder/director in full satisfaction and discharge of certain obligations of the Company with respect to various advances and contributions made by such shareholder/director. The Company accounted for this related party transaction as a capital contribution and, accordingly, did not recognize gain or loss in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Such transaction was effected pursuant to a 2017 Consolidated Conversion and Subscription Agreement entered into as of January 31, 2018 (the “2017 Conversion Agreement”) pursuant to which (i) such shareholder/director converted $100,000 advanced on July 10, 2010 bearing interest at 8.0% per annum (the “2010 Advance”) into 250,000 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.40 per share; (ii) such shareholder/director converted $50,000 advanced on December 31, 2012 bearing interest at 8.0% per annum (the “2012 Advance”) into 166,667 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.30 per share; (iii) the Company agreed to issue and such shareholder/director agreed to accept 539,230 shares of common stock at $0.20 per share in full payment of accrued and unpaid interest on the 2010 Advance and 2012 Advance which totaled $107,846; (iv) the Company agreed to issue and such shareholder/director agreed to accept 800,000 shares of common stock at $0.25 per share in full consideration for an aggregate of $200,000, bearing no interest, contributed to the Company between July 29 and December 2, 2015, and expected to be applied to stock subscriptions to be issued at a future date; (v) the Company agreed to issue and such shareholder/director agreed to accept 2,150,000 shares of common stock at $0.20 per share in full consideration for aggregate of $430,000, bearing no interest, contributed to the Company between February 9 and November 30, 2016, and expected to be applied to stock subscriptions to be issued at a future date; and (vi) the Company agreed to issue and such shareholder/director agreed to accept 1,321,250 shares of common stock at $0.20 per share in full consideration for an aggregate of $264,250, bearing no interest, contributed to the Company between January 5 and October 24, 2017 and expected to be applied to stock subscriptions to be issued at a future date. During the third quarter of 2017, the Company issued 500,000 shares of common stock to two accredited investors for an aggregate of $100,000 received in a private placement offering of common stock at $0.20 per share.

Stock Options
In September 2003, shareholders of the Company approved an employee stock option plan (the “2003 Option Plan”) authorizing the issuance of options to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock. The 2003 Option Plan is intended to give the Company greater ability to attract, retain, and motivate officers, key employees, directors and consultants; and is intended to provide the Company with the ability to provide incentives more directly linked to the success of the Company’s business and increases in shareholder value. During the third quarter of 2013, the board of directors increased the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2003 Option Plan from 1,000,000 to 1,250,000 which was increased by the board to 1,750,000 during the third quarter of 2018.

On July 7, 2018, the Board of Directors authorized and approved the extension of the expiration dates of certain options issued to three employees to acquire 365,867 shares of common stock which were due to expire July 19, 2018 for an additional period of five years from the current expiration dates. Such options which were issued under our 2003 Option Plan have an exercise price of $0.35 per share.
On September 28, 2018 options to acquire 165,010 shares were issued under our 2003 Option Plan to four employees which are immediately exercisable. These options have an exercise price of $0.20 per share and expire in five years from their issue date.
There were 165,010 options issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. No options expired during such periods, except options to acquire 108,334 shares, issued to a former employee, who is now deceased, which expired in July 2018. The overall weighted average of the active employee options rose to 2.9 years as of September 30, 2018.
The fair value of options extended during 2018 was $31,791 at the date of grant and was recognized along with $14,325 fair value for the newly issued employee options as non-cash compensation for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 as estimated using the Black-Scholes Model with the following weighted average assumptions:

NOTE 5- INCOME TAXES
On December 22, 2017, the President signed the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. Tax Reform”), which enacts a wide range of changes to the U.S. Corporate income tax system. The impact of U.S. Tax Reform primarily represents our estimates of revaluing our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the rates at which they are expected to be recognized in the future. For U.S. federal purposes the corporate statutory income tax rate was reduced from 35% to 21%, effective for the 2018 tax year. Based on our historical financial performance, we have a net deferred tax asset position that we have re-measured at the lower corporate rate of 21%.
NOTE 6 – RELATED PARTY NOTES AND ADVANCES
Related party notes and advances
On July 7, 2009, the Company entered into a $100,000 unsecured promissory note with an officer, due on demand. Interest is payable at 12% per annum. Also, on December 11, 2009, the Company entered into a $50,000 note with a shareholder/director. Interest is 5% per annum. The principal balance of the note was due on the earlier of December 11, 2013, or upon completion by the Company of equity financing in excess of $1.0 million in gross proceeds. Interest on the loan is payable on the maturity date at the rate of 5% per annum. These notes are now overdue for payment.
On June 1, 2010, the Company entered into a $50,000 convertible promissory note with a shareholder/director which was due on June 1, 2013 and accrues interest at 8.0% per annum payable at maturity and which may be converted at any time into shares of common stock. The assignment of the conversion feature of the note resulted in a loan discount being recorded. The discount amount of $36,207 was fully amortized over the original thirty-six-month term of the debt as additional interest expense. This note is now overdue for payment.
On June 1, 2010, the Company entered into $300,000 of convertible promissory notes with a shareholder/director which was due on June 1, 2013 and accrues interest at 8.0% per annum payable at maturity and which may be converted at any time into shares of common stock the number of which is to be determined at that time. This note is now overdue for payment.
On July 20, 2010, the Company entered into $400,000 convertible promissory notes with a shareholder/director which was due on July 20, 2013 and accrues interest at 8.0% per annum payable at maturity and which may be converted at any time into shares of common stock. This note is now overdue for payment.
On July 20, 2010, the Company entered into a $100,000 convertible promissory note with a shareholder which was due on July 20, 2013 and accrues interest at 8.0% per annum payable at maturity and which may be converted at any time into shares of common stock. This note is now overdue for payment.
On December 10, 2010, the Company entered into $150,000 of convertible promissory notes with a shareholder/director which was due on December 10, 2013 and accrues interest at 8.0% per annum payable at maturity and which may be converted at any time into shares of common stock. This note is now overdue for payment.
On June 20, 2011, the Company entered into a $150,000 convertible promissory note with a shareholder/director which shall be due and payable on June 20, 2014 and accrues interest at 8.0% per annum payable at maturity and which may be converted at any time into shares of common stock. This note is now overdue for payment.
On October 20, 2011, the Company entered into a $70,000 convertible promissory note with a shareholder/director which was due on October 20, 2014 and accrues interest at 8.0% per annum payable at maturity and which may be converted at any time into shares of common stock. This note is now overdue for payment.
During 2010 and 2012, such shareholder/director advanced the Company $100,000 and $370,000 respectively. Such advances are due on demand and bear interest at 8% and 8% per annum respectively. During the second quarter of 2015, $320,000 of the advances during 2012 were converted into 3,173,811 shares of common stock of the Company. During the first quarter of 2018, all of the advances during 2010 totaling $100,000 and the remaining $50,000 of advances during 2012 were converted into shares of common stock of the Company. See Note 3 – Stockholders’ Equity.
12 |
Table of Contents |
During 2015, such shareholder/director contributed $200,000 to the Company expected to be applied to stock subscriptions to be issued at a future date. Such advances do not bear interest. This amount has been recorded as additional notes payable. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company agreed to issue, and the shareholder/director agreed to accept 800,000 shares of common stock in full consideration for the total amount of $200,000 contributed in 2015. See Note 3 – Stockholders’ Equity.
During 2016, such shareholder/director contributed $430,000 and a second shareholder/director contributed an additional $9,000, respectively, to the Company expected to be applied to stock subscriptions to be issued at a future date. Such advances do not bear interest. These amounts have been recorded as additional notes payable. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company agreed to issue, and the shareholder/director agreed to accept 2,150,000 shares of common stock in full consideration for the total amount of $430,000 contributed in 2016. See Note 3 – Stockholders’ Equity.
During 2017, such shareholder/director contributed $264,250 and a second shareholder/director contributed an additional $1,000, respectively, to the Company expected to be applied to stock subscriptions to be issued at a future date. Such advances do not bear interest. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company agreed to issue, and the shareholder/director agreed to accept 1,321,250 shares of common stock in full consideration for the total amount of $264,250 contributed in 2017. See Note 3 – Stockholders’ Equity.
During the first nine months of 2018, a shareholder/director advanced $355,000 to the Company for working capital requirements. In addition, the Company reclassified a previous customer deposit of $37,500 originally received from a shareholder/director, made on behalf of a now deceased distributor, from customer deposits to shareholder deposits, as the original projected sale in question is no longer viable. The Company expects amounts advanced will be either (i) applied against a stock subscription to be issued at a future date or (ii) repaid at a future date as the parties shall determine. Until otherwise agreed, such amounts advanced have been recorded as an additional payable bearing no interest.
The Company determined it is not practicable to estimate the fair value of outstanding debt as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, as the outstanding debt is private, there is no clarity as to when interest payments or principal payments will ultimately be made (or be called by the debt holders), and the Company lacks the internal expertise to calculate fair value of these debt instruments and would incur excessive costs to obtain a third-party valuation.
Other related party transactions
As of September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, the Company owed approximately $3.9 million to its chief executive officer and other employees of the Company. The CEO and employees agreed to salary deferrals pending available resources to make such payments.
One of the Company’s shareholders owns 100% of BATL Trading, Inc., which is a distributor of EnerBurn. There were no sales to BATL Trading, Inc. during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
NOTE 7 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Office Lease
EnerTeck leases office space under a non-cancelable operating lease.
This lease provides for a rent-free period as well as increasing rental payments. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, rent expense for financial statement purposes is being recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. A deferred lease liability arises from the timing difference in the recognition of rent expense and the actual payment of rent.
Rent expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 totaled $37,784 and $38,122, respectively.

NOTE 8 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue From Contracts With Customers that introduces a new five-step revenue recognition model in which an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU also requires disclosures sufficient to enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company has adopted this update. See Note 1 for further discussion.
In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Inventory: Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”, which simplifies the measurement of inventories valued under most methods. Under this new guidance, inventories valued under these methods would be valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with net realizable value defined as the estimated selling price less reasonable costs to sell the inventory. The new guidance is effective prospectively for fiscal periods starting after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted this update and there is no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” which requires lessees to recognize most lease liabilities on their balance sheets but recognize the expenses on their income statements in a manner similar to current practice. The update states that a lessee would recognize a lease liability for the obligation to make lease payments and a right-to-use asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. The update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not currently believe the impact of this guidance will be material on its consolidated financial statements.
On March 30, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation” which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions for both public and nonpublic entities, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. For public business entities, the ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption will be permitted in any interim or annual period for which financial statements have not yet been issued or have not been made available for issuance. If early adoption is elected, all amendments in the ASU that apply must be adopted in the same period. In addition, if early adoption is elected in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period. The Company has adopted this update and there is no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
There have been no material subsequent events after the close of the quarter ended September 30, 2018.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company included elsewhere herein.

Such statements are not a guarantee of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results may differ materially from those included within the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Such factors include, among other things, general economic conditions; cyclical factors affecting our industry; lack of growth in our industry; our ability to comply with government regulations; a failure to manage our business effectively; our ability to sell products at profitable yet competitive prices; and other risks and factors set forth from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the result of any revision of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Executive Overview
EnerTeck Corporation (the “Company” or “EnerTeck Parent”), formerly named Gold Bond Mining Company and then Gold Bond Resources, Inc., was incorporated in the State of Washington on July 30, 1935. We acquired EnerTeck Chemical Corp. (“EnerTeck Sub”) as a wholly owned subsidiary on January 9, 2003. As a result of this acquisition, we are now acting as a holding company, with EnerTeck Sub as our primary operating business. Subsequent to this transaction, on November 24, 2003 we changed our domicile from the State of Washington to the State of Delaware and changed our name from Gold Bond Resources, Inc. to EnerTeck Corporation. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “us” or “our” refer to EnerTeck Corporation and its consolidated subsidiary.
EnerTeck Sub, our wholly owned operating subsidiary, was incorporated in the State of Texas on November 29, 2000. It was formed for the purpose of commercializing a diesel fuel specific combustion catalyst known as EnerBurn (TM), as well as other combustion enhancement and emission reduction technologies. Nalco/Exxon Energy Chemicals, L.P. (“Nalco/Exxon L.P.”), a joint venture between Nalco Chemical Corporation and Exxon Corporation commercially introduced EnerBurn in 1998. When Nalco/Exxon L.P. went through an ownership change in 2000, our founder, Dwaine Reese, formed EnerTeck Sub. It acquired the EnerBurn trademark and related assets and took over the Nalco/Exxon L.P. relationship with the EnerBurn blender at that time.
We utilize a sales process that includes detailed proprietary customer fleet monitoring protocols in on-road applications that quantify data and assists in managing certain internal combustion diesel engine operating results while utilizing EnerBurn. Test data prepared by Southwest Research Institute and actual customer usage has indicated that the use of EnerBurn in diesel engines improves fuel economy, lowers smoke, and decreases engine wear and the dangerous emissions of both Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) and microscopic airborne solid matter (particulates). Our principal target markets have included the trucking, heavy construction, maritime shipping, railroad and mining industries, as well as federal, state and international government applications. Each of these industries shares certain common financial characteristics, i.e. (i) diesel fuel represents a disproportionate share of operating costs; and (ii) relatively small operating margins are prevalent. Considering these factors, management believes that the use of EnerBurn and the corresponding derived savings in diesel fuel costs can positively affect the operating margins of its customers while contributing to a cleaner environment.
During 2011, we acquired a 40% membership interest in a entity called EnerTeck Environmental, LLC, which was formed for the purpose of marketing and selling a diesel fuel emission reduction technology with the creators of such specific technology.

Results of Operations
Revenues
We recorded $133,000 and $156,000 sales revenues for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, compared to sales revenues of $59,000 and $242,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. As testing is either underway or completed with several potential new customers and in new areas with existing customers, it is expected that the remainder of 2018 should show improvement.
Gross Profit
Gross profit, defined as revenues less cost of goods sold, was $100,000 and $118,000 for the three month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2018, respectively. This amounts to 75.2% and 75.7% of sales for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to $47,000 and $205,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, which was 79.4 % and 84.5% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017. Even though the overall volumes decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we feel confident that there will be an improvement in the gross profits and percentage as the year proceeds, as several recently completed successful tests have just reached the negotiation stage and our manufacturing proficiency continues to improve for our core products.
Cost of goods sold was $33,000 and $38,000 for the three-month and nine months ended September 30, 2018, which represented 24.8% of revenues for the three months and 24.3% for the nine months, respectively, as compared to $12,000 and $37,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017, which represented 20.6% and 15.5% of sales, respectively during 2017.
Costs and Expenses
Operating expenses were $248,000 and $666,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to $215,000 for the three months and $735,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively, with the variations during the nine month period, caused by a decrease in total payroll and stock-based compensation. Costs and expenses in all periods primarily consisted of payroll, professional fees, rent expense, depreciation expense, amortization expense and other general and administrative expenses.
Net Loss
We reported a net loss of $185,000 and $697,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, as compared to net losses of $221,000 and $694,000 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2017. Included in this loss was the extension of previously issued options valued at approximately $32,000 and the issuance of new employee stock options valued at approximately of $14,000 during the third quarter of 2018. The expectation is that sales will increase for the remainder of the 2018 calendar year due to the success of certain completed testing and negotiations for and with new customers.
Operations Outlook
The fuel additive industry has historically been mired by a myriad of technically dubious products. Prospective customers in all targeted market sectors and geographic locations are primarily concerned about the potential business risks associated with the adoption of any new fuel or engine treatment. Our sales process begins with a proof of performance demonstration that is a thorough analysis of the potential customer, including fleet type, size, and opportunity. This is followed with sales presentations at both the executive level and maintenance level.
The majority of our marketing effort since 2005 has been directed at targeting and gaining a foothold in one of several major target areas, including the inland marine diesel market, trucking, heavy construction and mining. Management concedes that sales revenues for the first nine months of 2018, the calendar year 2017 and prior years have been considerably less than earlier anticipated. One of the issues we have faced in recent years has been the very long timeline from initial contact to contract signing subsequent to completion of an evaluation. Although we believe that many times in the past, we have proven the benefits of EnerBurn, various evaluating companies have opted not to move forward for a variety of reasons which we believe were beyond our control.

Nevertheless, at both the Company and distributor level, we have recently completed or are proceeding with evaluations of EnerBurn in many field trials. As we continue to string together a series of positive evaluations in more industries, we should begin to see more business generated from such results. New trials are either in progress or should be commencing shortly.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On September 30, 2018, we had working capital deficit of $7,188,000 and a stockholders’ deficit of $7,030,000 compared to a working capital deficit of $6,540,000 and a stockholders’ deficit of $7,531,000 on December 31, 2017. Our continuing deficit levels primarily stems from poor sales. On September 30, 2018, we had $21,000 in cash, total assets of $340,000 and total liabilities of $7,370,000, compared to $19,000 in cash, total assets of $352,000 and total liabilities of $7,883,000 on December 31, 2017.
Net cash used in operating activities was $442,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $313,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increased usage of cash used in operating activities during the first nine months of 2018 was largely driven by the payment of certain employees’ salaries, both earned during the period and previously accrued, as well as the payment of certain operating expenses, whereas in the first nine months of 2017, most of these similar costs were being accrued.
Cash used in investing activities was $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and $2,400 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017.
Cash provided by financing activities was $444,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 with $51,000 provided by the financing of prepaid expenses and $393,000 from shareholder advances for the future purchase of additional common stock as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $314,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 which was comprised of proceeds from stock sales of $100,000 and $214,000 of related party notes and advances.
We anticipate, based on currently proposed plans and assumptions relating to our operations, that in addition to our current cash and cash equivalents together with projected cash flows from operations and projected revenues, we will require additional investment to satisfy our contemplated cash requirements for the next 12 months. No assurance can be made that we will be able to obtain such investment on terms acceptable to us or at all. We anticipate that our costs and expenses over the next 12 months will be approximately $3.0 million. Our continuation as a going concern is contingent upon our ability to obtain additional financing and to generate revenues and cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis. As mentioned above, management acknowledges that sales revenues have been considerably less than earlier anticipated. This was primarily due to a combination of circumstances which have been corrected or are in the process of being corrected and therefore should not reoccur in the future and the general state of the economy. Management expects that sales should show increases in the fourth quarter of 2018 and into 2019. No assurances can be made that we will be able to obtain required financial backing on terms acceptable to us or at all. Our contemplated cash requirements beyond 2018 will depend primarily upon level of sales of our products, inventory levels, product development, sales and marketing expenditures and capital expenditures.
Due to our lack of meaningful revenues, we have been forced to finance our operations primarily from capital which has been raised from third parties and promissory notes and advances from related parties. As of September 30, 2018, such loans and advances from related parties total $1,773,000 as compared to $1,380,000 on December 31, 2017. During the first quarter of 2018, $1,044,000 of these notes and advances along with $108,000 in interest were converted into 5,227,147 shares of the Company’s common stock. Many of these remaining loans are past due and certain others are due on demand. The Company does not expect any of such related parties to demand payment until the Company has adequate resources to pay back such loans and advances, there can be no assurance that such will be the case. This debt presents a significant risk to the Company in that in the event any of such related parties demand payment, the Company may not have the necessary cash to meet such payment obligations, or if it does, such payments may draw significantly on the Company’s cash position. Any of such events will likely have a materially detrimental effect on the Company.
Inflation has not significantly impacted the Company’s operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, and results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2018, these disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective to ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rule and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, as a result of material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting. The ineffectiveness was due to the following material weaknesses which are indicative of many small companies: (i) all accounting functions are performed by limited accounting personnel; (ii) lack of formalized controls in the financial close process; (iii) general lack of knowledge of generally accepted accounting principles; and (iv) review of monthly, quarterly and yearly consolidated financial statements was not performed at a sufficient level of precision and specificity in order to detect material errors in the financial statements.
Despite the existence of the material weaknesses, we believe that our consolidated financial statements contained in this Form 10-Q fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in all material respects.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no material changes in internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. However, we intend to actively plan for and implement control procedures to improve our overall control environment including but not limited to documenting necessary internal control policies and developing and delivering appropriate internal control training to our personnel. Due to the nature of the remediation process and the need to allow adequate time after implementation to evaluate and test the effectiveness of the controls, as well as our limited cash resources, no assurance can be given as to the timing of achievement of remediation.
