PART I
Recent Developments
Suspension of operations and adoption of a limited action plan.
On
June 20, 2008, Kreido Biofuels, Inc. (we, us or the Company) announced that due to the
weakening of the economy, the continued financial market turmoil and the inability to raise needed
capital to finance site construction and plant start-up costs, we were suspending work regarding
our flagship biodiesel production plant at the Port of Wilmington,
North Carolina, and would be exploring other
alternatives to secure the value of Company assets and the STT® technology. Since that
date, we have wound down our plant development activities and begun monetizing and physically
consolidating selected assets. We have focused our attention on identifying, and engaging in
discussions with, other companies that have the capacity to acquire
some or all of our assets and continue our business while also addressing supplier-creditor matters. We have reduced our
operating costs by curtailing our manufacturing operations, site
development and other
operating activities as well as by reducing our staff from 19 to 7 executive and key technical and
accounting personnel who we believe are instrumental in pursuing the Companys limited action plan
and marketing its technology. The Company has incurred, and will continue to incur, costs
associated with carrying out its limited action plan. The amount of these costs, which are being
expensed as incurred, are expected to have a significant adverse affect on the results of
operations and on the Companys cash position. Additionally,
there can be no assurances that any of the interested parties will
ultimately purchase any or all of the assets or intellectual property
of the Company or that all supplier-creditor matters will be
addressed and settled.
The goal of this limited action plan is to effect an orderly disposition of our tangible and
intangible assets, satisfy our liabilities, and ultimately share the remaining assets, if any,
among our shareholders. Our ability to successfully carry out the limited action plan and
accomplish this goal will be affected by the business conditions in the alternative fuels
industry, general economic conditions, and other matters, many of which are beyond our control.
Taking into account these factors and various disposition assumptions, some of which may not
materialize, we have made impairment adjustments of approximately $13.4 million to the value of the Companys assets at June 30,
2008. As a result, our ability to effectively complete our limited action plan is inherently
uncertain. In addition, unanticipated and uncertain events and circumstances occurring subsequent
to the date of this Quarterly Report may affect the actual value of
our assets, cause further related
impairment adjustments and the results of our plan both favorably or unfavorably.
Uncertainties relating to realizing value of business and assets.
The Company has reduced the size of its organizational infrastructure. The success of our limited
action plan to realize the value of our assets and business is dependent on numerous factors,
including the timing and amount of cash received from the monetization of some or all of our
assets, the resolution of liabilities, and our ability to effectively
carry out the limited action plan with
our available cash resources and our limited personnel.
We may be unable to retain key personnel.
Our ability to carry out our limited action plan and to realize and monetize many of our assets may
require us to retain qualified individuals. It may become necessary to make arrangements and
commitments to retain key executives and employees. If we are unable to
retain key executives and qualified technical personnel, it could adversely affect our ability to
realize the value of our assets and business.
Realizing the value of the Companys business and assets may be subject to certain conditions of
completion that could result in delays or termination of transactions.
Consummation of any agreements entered into as part of our limited action plan may be subject to a
number of customary conditions that would need to be satisfied including stockholder approvals of
certain transactions. The failure to satisfy any of the conditions in any of these agreements
could cause the subject transactions to be delayed or terminated. As a result, we cannot assure
you that we will be able to complete our limited action plan in a timely matter or
at values initially agreed into,
if at all.

Table of Contents
We have limited available cash and have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant
transaction costs in connection with carrying out our limited action
plan, most of which may be
required to be paid even if the plan is not completed.
We
have incurred, and will continue to incur, significant transaction costs in connection with
pursuing and consummating our limited action plan to realize the value of our assets and
business. These costs are primarily associated with the fees of accountants, attorneys and
advisors. The payment of these costs without the completion of any transaction is likely to have a
material and adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition. Our current cash
resources will enable us to continue to pursue our limited action plan through the end of November,
assuming that no assets are monetized and we defer paying a majority of our vendors, advisors,
accountants and attorneys. If a transaction is delayed beyond November and we are not able to sell
some of our assets to raise cash then we may not be able to retain our employees, advisors,
accountants, and attorneys through the completion of our limited action plan or engaged
transactions.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2008
NOTE 1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Kreido Biofuels, Inc. (Kreido or
the Company) at June 30, 2008 and for the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 have
been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results
of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been included. The results of
operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for any other interim period or for the full year. They do not include all information and notes
required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the audited consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contained in Kreidos
Annual Report on Form 10-KSB as amended by Form 10-KSB/A for the period from inception (January 13,
1995) through December 31, 2007.
The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming that the
Company is a going concern. The condensed consolidated 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 outcome of this uncertainty.
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 2 ORGANIZATION
Kreido Biofuels, Inc. was incorporated as Gemwood Productions, Inc. under the laws of the State of
Nevada on February 7, 2005. Gemwood Productions, Inc. changed its name to Kreido Biofuels, Inc. on
November 2, 2006. The Company took its current form on January 12, 2007 when Kreido Laboratories
(Kreido Labs), completed a reverse triangular merger with Kreido Biofuels, Inc. The Company
wholly-owns two subsidiaries, Kreido Chicago LLC and Kreido Wilmington LLC, which are currently not
active, as well as Kreido Labs; its operating subsidiary.
Kreido Labs, formerly known as Holl Technologies Company, was incorporated on January 13, 1995
under the laws of the State of California. Since incorporation, Kreido Labs has been engaged in
activities required to develop, patent and commercialize its products. Kreido Labs is the creator
of reactor technology that is designed to enhance the manufacturing of a broad range of chemical
products.
The cornerstone of Kreido Labs technology is its patented STT® (Spinning Tube in Tube) diffusional
chemical reacting system, which is both a licensable process and a licensable system. In 2005, the
Company demonstrated how the STT® could make biodiesel from vegetable oil rapidly with
almost complete conversion and less undesirable by-products. The Company has continued to pursue
this activity, has built and tested a pilot biodiesel production
unit and, prior to June 20, 2008,
was in the process of developing the first of its commercial biodiesel production plants in the
United States that if constructed and put into operation was expected to produce approximately 33
million to 50 million gallons per year. On June 20, 2008
the Company announced that due to the weakening of the economy, the continued financial market turmoil and the inability to raise needed
capital to finance site construction and plant start-up costs, the Company was suspending work
regarding its flagship biodiesel production plant at the Port of
Wilmington, North Carolina, and would be exploring
other alternatives to secure the value of the Kreido assets and the STT® technology. The Company
is pursuing discussion with various parties that have the capacity to acquire some or all of the
assets and/or intellectual property of the Company and continue its business but there can be no
assurances that any of the interested parties will ultimately purchase any or all of the assets or
intellectual property of the Company. If the Company cannot raise adequate cash from the sale of
these assets then the Company believes that its cash resources will enable it to continue its
business activities through the end of November 2008, assuming that major vendors, advisors,
accountants, and attorneys are not paid. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.

The Company considers itself a development stage enterprise because it has not yet earned
significant revenue from its commercial products or biodiesel production plants.
NOTE 3 LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN ISSUES
The Company, a development stage company, has suffered recurring losses from operations and at June
30, 2008 had an accumulated deficit of $45,481,000 that raises substantial doubt about its ability
to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 4 PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property and equipment at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007 is summarized as follows:

The Company has manufactured spare STT® Reactors, which are in various stages of completion, and
has purchased spare parts for these reactors. These reactors and spare parts may be used as backup
for a plant once the technology is proven. As of June 30, 2008, because the technology of the STT®
Reactors has not been proven under commercial production conditions and due to funding limitations,
the Company has reserved $1,583,000 of the capitalized overhead and labor costs of these spare
reactors as well as a significant portion of the cost of the spare parts and equipment as a
possible impairment.
Additionally, given the Companys current financial situation, the Company assessed the potential
value of its assets capitalized as construction in progress and determined an estimated value for a
realized sale of the equipment that has been constructed. The estimated value was based on
discussions with prospective purchasers and vendors and/or
manufacturers of the equipment to estimate a reasonably possible realizable amount and fair value. Based on this
analysis, as of June 30, 2008 the Company recorded $11
million as a possible impairment reserve against the construction in
progress in property and equipment. The Company also assessed the fair value of
its remaining property and equipment, excluding construction in progress assets, and has recorded a reserve of $809,000 as a possible
impairment of these assets.
The Company accounts for its property and equipment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. The Company tested its property and
equipment for recoverability because there is a current expectation that it is more likely
than not, the property and equipment will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly
before they are put into service.
Depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 was $68,000 and $126,000,
respectively, including related depreciation for capital leases. Equipment recorded under capital
leases totaled $230,000 and $456,000 at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively.
NOTE 5 CONSTRUCTION IN PROGRESS AND PLANT DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES
In October 2007, the Company completed the construction and test operation of a pilot biodiesel
production unit (pilot plant) at an existing biodiesel production facility operated by Foothills
Bio-energies, LLC. Full pilot plant operations were never fully undertaken and the Company has
requested that any operations be terminated and is planning to retrieve the equipment from the
facility in order to prepare it for possible resale to another potential purchaser. As discussed
in Note 2 above, the Company suspended the construction and development of the full scale
plant site. Upon suspension of the full scale plant development, the
Company wrote off $891,000 of costs specific to the proposed plant
site which had been previously capitalized as construction in
progress. The write off was charged to general and administrative
expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2008. As discussed in Note 4 above, the Company has established a possible impairment
reserve against the construction in progress for property and
equipment. Construction costs incurred and
capitalized consist of (1) architectural, design and engineering; (2) labor, overhead and materials
to build in-house the four STT® Reactors; (3) designing, engineering and manufacturing of the plant
production
unit which includes components such as centrifuges, tanks, control panels and other equipment
being built by third parties for delivery to the plant site; and (4) the general contractor fees,
engineering and construction of the buildings and physical improvements including tanks, piping,
boilers and various lab and other equipment and machinery comprising the plant. As of June 30,
2008, development expenditures of $14.4 million have been incurred and recorded as
construction in progress and, approximately $2.3 million has
been recorded as outstanding payables for
services, equipment and construction work incurred through
June 30, 2008 provided by sub-contractors and
equipment vendors. The Company has not entered into additional purchase orders and
contracts.

NOTE 6 NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss applicable to common shares
by the weighted-average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the
period. For the six months ended June 30, 2008, there were no potential common equivalent shares
used in the calculation of weighted-average common shares outstanding as the effect would be
anti-dilutive because of the net loss. During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the
Company issued additional stock option shares of 75,000 and 1,355,384, respectively. The Company
also cancelled stock options of 85,000 and 192,398 shares for the six months ended June 30, 2008
under its 2006 Equity Incentive Plan and 1997 Stock Compensation Program, respectively. No options
were cancelled for the same period in 2007.

NOTE 7 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Effective January 1, 2006 the Company adopted SFAS 123(R) Share Based Payment using the modified
prospective approach and accordingly prior periods have not been restated to reflect the impact of
SFAS 123(R).
Upon the adoption of SFAS123(R), the Company recorded $2,000 and $5,000 of compensation costs for
the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, relating to stock options granted to
employees and non-employees from 2003 to 2006. The compensation costs are based on the fair value
of the stock options at the grant date.
In December 2007, the Company issued 100,000 shares restricted common stock to one of its officers.
The shares are subject to repurchase by the Company for $1,000 if the officer terminates his
employment voluntarily or is terminated for cause before May 31, 2009. This transaction was
recorded under deferred compensation and amortized over a period of 18 months. In April 2008, the
Company issued 75,000 shares restricted common stock to one of its officers. The shares are
subject to repurchase by the Company for $750 if the officer terminates his employment voluntarily
or is terminated for cause before April 30, 2009. This transaction was recorded under deferred
compensation and amortized over a period of 12 months. Compensation expense for the six months
ended June 30, 2008 was $12,000.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock option
awards. The fair value of the options issued during the year ended June 30, 2008 was estimated
using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: risk free interest
rates 2.75% and 3.03%, expected life range of 5.25 to 5.583 years and expected volatility of 92%. The
expected stock price volatility assumption was based on the average volatility of similar public
companies for the period prior to the Companys reverse merger. The expected term assumption used
in the option pricing model was based on the safe harbor approach under SEC Staff Accounting
Bulletin (SAB) No. 107, (SAB 107), where the expected term = ((vesting term + original contractual
term) / 2). The risk free interest rate assumption was based on the implied yield currently
available on U.S. Treasury zero coupon issues with remaining term equal to the expected term. A
projected dividend yield of 0% was used as the company has never issued dividends.

The Company has recorded in general and administrative expenses, $4,000 of compensation expense for
the six month period ended June 30, 2007, relating to stock options issued to non-employees for
services rendered during that period. There was no compensation expense for stock options issued to
non-employee for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

On February 1, 2008, the compensation committee of the board of directors agreed to reprice
the unvested options held by the Companys employees under its 2006 Equity Incentive Plan. These
options were repriced for only those granted in 2007, with an exercise price above the closing
market price on February 1, 2008, which was $0.33 per share. The Company determined the additional
compensation expense under SFAS 123(R) to be $22,000. Since the repricing only affected unvested
shares, it does not affect amounts already recorded and the increased amount will be recorded over
the remaining vesting period.
In accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R), the Company has recorded stock-based compensation
expense of $493,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008, which includes the compensation effect
for the options repriced. The stock-based compensation expense is based on the fair value of the
options at the grant date. Stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2007
was $408,000.

Item 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS PROVIDES INFORMATION WHICH OUR MANAGEMENT BELIEVES IS
RELEVANT TO AN ASSESSMENT AND UNDERSTANDING OF OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION.
THIS DISCUSSION SHOULD BE READ TOGETHER WITH OUR CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE NOTES TO
OUR CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS WHICH ARE INCLUDED IN THIS REPORT, AND WITH OUR ANNUAL REPORT
ON FORM 10-KSB FILED ON MARCH 31, 2008 AS AMENDED BY FORM 10-KSB/A FILED ON APRIL 30, 2008.
In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking
statements that relate to future events and expectations and, as such, constitute forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements include those containing such words as anticipates,
believes, estimates, expects, hopes, targets, should, will, will likely result,
forecast, outlook, projects or similar expressions. Such forward-looking statements involve
known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results,
performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied in the
forward-looking statements.
As used in this report, the terms we, us, and our, mean Kreido Biofuels, Inc. and our
subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated.
We took our current form on January 12, 2007, when our wholly-owned subsidiary, Kreido Acquisition
Corp., or Acquisition Sub, and Kreido Laboratories, or Kreido Labs, executed a Merger Agreement and
Plan of Reorganization, or the Merger Agreement. On January 12, 2007, Acquisition Sub merged with
and into Kreido Labs, with Kreido Labs remaining as the surviving corporation and as our
wholly-owned subsidiary, or the Merger. Also contemporaneously with the closing of the Merger, we
split-off another wholly-owned subsidiary, Gemwood Leaseco, Inc., a Nevada corporation, through the
sale of all of the outstanding capital stock of Gemwood Leaseco, Inc., or the Split-Off. As a
consequence of the sale of Gemwood Leaseco, Inc., we discontinued all of our business operations
which we conducted prior to the closing of the Merger, and spun off all material liabilities
existing prior to that date in any way related to our pre-closing business operations. Our primary
operations are now those operated by Kreido Labs.
The Merger was treated as a recapitalization of our company for accounting purposes. Our
historical financial statements before the Merger were replaced with the historical financial
statements of Kreido Labs in all filings with the SEC subsequent to January 12, 2007.
Kreido Labs is a corporation founded to develop proprietary technology for building micro-composite
materials for electronic applications. In 1995, Kreido Labs began to develop the technology used
in the design and assembly of our STT® Reactor. Kreido Labs thereafter sought to develop the
technology to improve the speed, completeness and efficiency of certain chemical reactions,
including esterifications and transesterifications, in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries.
We designed and developed the STT® Reactor which incorporates our proprietary and patented
spinning tube-in-tube design configuration to improve the speed and yield of chemical reactions.
One of the Environmental Protection Agencys largest laboratories has been using our STT®
Reactor-based technology since 2004 to develop and evaluate new chemical processes and develop and
optimize protocols for use of the STT® Reactor by public and private entities. Beginning in the
last quarter of 2005, Kreido Labs began to evaluate the advantages of the STT® Reactor specifically
for the production of biodiesel. In the first quarter of 2006, Kreido Labs elected to focus almost
exclusively on the biodiesel industry and began to prepare and execute our current business plan.
On January 12, 2007, as a result of the Merger, Kreido Labs became a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Kreido Biofuels, Inc.

Plan of Operations
On June 20, 2008, we announced that we were suspending our plan to commercialize our proprietary
equipment system for biodiesel production on an industrial scale and to become one of the leading
providers of biodiesel in the United States and elsewhere. We expected to execute our business
plan by generating revenues from multiple sources: 1) by building and operating our own STT®
biodiesel Production Units; 2) licensing our STT® Reactor-based technology to others which may
require one of our production units to be in operation, and 3) in the longer term, by providing
technology and investing in businesses that will develop or use our STT® Reactor-based technology
for production of biofuels and other products. We are now pursuing a limited action plan to
realize the value of our assets and our STT® technology.
Since June 20, 2008, we have wound down our plant development activities, and begun monetizing and
physically consolidating selected assets. We have focused our attention on identifying, and engaging
in discussions with, other companies that have the capacity to acquire some or all of our assets
and continue our business while also addressing supplier-creditor matters. We have reduced our
operating costs through curtailing our manufacturing operations, site
development and other
operating activities as well as reducing our staff from 19 to 7 executive and key technical and
accounting personnel who we believe are instrumental in pursuing the Companys limited action plan
and marketing its technology. The Company has incurred, and will continue to incur, costs
associated with carrying out its limited action plan. The amount of these costs, which are being
expensed as incurred, are expected to have a significant adverse affect on the results of
operations and on the Companys cash position. Additionally,
there can be no assurances that any of the interested parties will
ultimately purchase any or all of the assets or intellectual property
of the Company or that all supplier-creditor matters will be
addressed and settled.
The goal of this limited action plan is to effect an orderly disposition of our tangible and
intangible assets, satisfy the Companys liabilities, and ultimately share the remaining assets, if any,
among our shareholders. Our ability to successfully carry out the limited action plan and
accomplish this goal will be affected by the business conditions in the alternative fuels
industry, general economic conditions, and other matters, many of which are beyond our control. Taking
into account these factors and various disposition assumptions, some of which may not materialize,
we have made impairment adjustments of approximately
$13.4 million to the value of our assets at June 30, 2008. Our ability to
effectively complete our limited action plan is inherently uncertain. In addition, unanticipated
and uncertain events and circumstances occurring subsequent to the date of this Quarterly Report
may affect the actual value of our assets, the related impairment adjustments and the results of
our plan both favorably or unfavorably.
Consolidated Results of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses of $17.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 increased by $15.7
million compared to $2.2 million for the same period in 2007. Research and development expense for
the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $809,000 compared to $298,000 for the same period in 2007,
an increase of $511,000. Research and development expenses increased for the first half of 2008
compared to the same period in 2007 due to the hiring of a chief technology officer and a scientist
in the second quarter of 2007 whose costs were not reflected in the earlier months of 2007 and also
to the patent valuation write down of $639,000 in 2008. We expect
research and development expenses to be at a minimum in the future. General and administrative costs
increased to $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $1.9 million for the same
period in 2007. The increase was related primarily to the rental of
tanks from Vopak and the write off of capitalized site specific costs
related to the proposed full scale plant site, the costs
associated with being a public company, an increase in stock compensation expense from the issuance
and repricing of stock options to employees and an increase in payroll related costs from the
hiring of additional personnel. Also during 2008, we expensed $13.4 million of costs attributed
to plant assets and costs associated with building extra reactors and acquiring spare parts as an
impairment reserve. We expect general and administrative costs to
decrease compared to the first six months of the year as we complete
the winding down of our operations and pursue our limited action plan to realize the
value of our assets and business. Additionally, we will continue to incur costs
associated with operating as a public reporting entity.

Table of Contents
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) for the six months ended June 30, 2008 declined to $53,000 from $421,000 for
the same period in 2007. Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 consisted of
interest income. The interest income decrease reflects the changes in the available cash balances.
Net Loss
Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $17,808,000, or about 908% increase compared to
the net loss of $1,766,000 for the same six month period for 2007. There were no net sales or
gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. We expect to incur net losses for
the foreseeable future as we continue to pursue our limited action plan.
Consolidated
Results of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and
2007
Operating
Expenses
Operating expenses of $15.3 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2008 increased by $13.8 million compared to $1.5 million for the same period in 2007. Research and
development expense for the three months ended June 30, 2008 were $582,000 compared to $278,000 for the same period in 2007,
an increase of $304,000. The increase in research and development expenses was due primarily to the patent valuation write down
of $398,000 in the second quarter of 2008. General and administrative costs increased to $2.1 million for the three months
ended June 30, 2008 from $1.2 million for the same period in 2007. The increase was related primarily to the write off
of $891,000 of capitalized site specific costs related to the proposed full scale plant site. Development of the full scale
plant site was suspended on June 20, 2008. Also during 2008, we expensed $13.4 million of costs attributed to plant
assets and costs associated with building extra reactors and acquiring spare parts as an impairment reserve. We expect general
and administrative costs to decrease compared to the prior three months of 2008 as we complete the winding down of our operations
and pursue our limited action plan to realize the value of our assets and business. Additionally, we will continue to incur costs
associated with operating as a public reporting entity.
Other
Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) for the three months ended June 30, 2008
declined to $12,000 from $229,000 for the same period in 2007. Other
income for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 consisted of
interest income. The interest income decrease reflects the changes
in the available cash balances.
Net
Loss
Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2008 was $15,303,000
compared to the net loss of $1,233,000 for the same three month period for 2007. There were no net sales or gross profit for the three
months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. We expect to incur net losses for the foreseeable future as we continue to pursue our
limited action plan.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
A summary of our sources and use of cash for the six months ended June 30, 2008, is as
follows:
| Source of cash consisted of interest income of $52,000. |
| Uses of cash consisted of plant development costs including purchases of fixed
assets and construction of plant components and reactors of $4.1 million, operating
expenses of $2.1 million (net of non-cash expenses such as loss on impairment of
property and equipment, stock compensation, and depreciation and amortization),
repayment of capital leases of $19,000 and investments in patents of $68,000 for a
total use of cash of approximately $6.3 million. |
| The decrease in cash balance to $1.4 million results from net sources of $52,000
less uses of cash of $6.3 million plus an increase in the amounts due to vendors of
$1.2 million which will be paid in future periods. |
The details of the cash flow activities for the six months ended June 30, 2008 are discussed below.
Net cash used by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $941,000 as
compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $680,000 for
the same period in 2007. Net cash used by operations in 2008 is primarily related
to operating costs and an increase in accounts payable which consisted of certain large payments
due to vendors associated with the construction of our biodiesel
production plant. In addition, we supplemented our net operating loss with a $13.4 million reserve
for the possible impairment of our fixed assets. We also incurred an increase in stock compensation
costs compared to the prior period.
Net cash used by investing activities for six months ended June 30, 2008 was approximately $4.1
million which was a decrease from $6.1 million used by investing activities for the same period in
2007. The cash used in 2008 and 2007 consisted primarily of the purchase and construction of
equipment and facilities associated with our Wilmington Plant. Costs of the plant consist of: (1)
site selection, leasing, permitting and other legal compliance; (2) architectural, design and
engineering; (3) labor, overhead and materials to build in-house the STT® Reactors; (4) designing,
engineering and manufacturing of the plant production unit which includes components such as
centrifuges, tanks, control panels and other equipment being built by third parties for delivery to
the plant site; and (5) the general contractor fees, engineering and construction of the buildings
and physical improvements including tanks, piping, boilers and various lab and other equipment and
machinery comprising the plant. In addition, approximately
$2.3 million has been recorded as outstanding payables for services, equipment and construction work incurred
through June 30, 2008 provided by
sub-contractors and equipment vendors. We also invested $68,000 in patents for six months
ended June 30, 2008.
Net cash used by financing activities for six months ended June 30, 2008 was $19,000 which is
due to repayment of capital lease obligations. For the same period in 2007, $22.7 million was
provided by financing activities consisting primarily of the private placement sale of our common
stock netting proceeds to us of approximately $23 million. This was offset by the repayment of
outstanding notes and the payment of capital leases of $151,000.

advisor.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Research and Development
Research and development costs related to the design, development, demonstration, and testing of
reactor technology are charged to operations as incurred.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments with a maturity date of three months or less when
purchased to be cash equivalents.
Use of Estimates
Preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting periods covered by the consolidated financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Depreciation and Amortization
The provision for depreciation of property and equipment is calculated when put into service on the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, generally ranging from
five to seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of
the related asset or the lease term.
Patents
Capitalized patent costs consist of direct costs associated with obtaining patents such as legal
expenses and filing fees. Patent costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years, which
is the expected life, beginning in the month that the patent is issued. Patent costs are
capitalized beginning with the filing of the patent application. The patents are tested for
impairment annually, or more frequently if events or conditions indicate the asset might be
impaired and the carrying value may not be recoverable. These conditions may include an economic
downturn, new and or competitive technology, new industry regulations and a change in our
operations or business direction. The impairment tests include a comparison of estimated
undiscounted cash flows associated with the assets carrying amount. If the assessment determines
that the fair value is less than the carrying amount of the patent, an impairment charge is
recorded to reduce the amount of the patent.

We continually evaluate whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate the remaining
estimated useful life of long-lived assets may warrant revision or that the remaining balance of
long-lived assets may not be recoverable in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. When factors indicate that long-lived assets should
be evaluated for possible impairment, we use an estimate of the related undiscounted future cash
flows over the remaining life of the long-lived assets in measuring whether they are recoverable.
If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset, a
loss is recorded as the excess of the assets carrying amount over its fair value. Management has
performed an assessment of the fixed assets of the Company which includes assessments of the future
realizable value of the assets through discussion with potential buyers and our current
manufactures and vendors though a formal appraisal was not obtained due to its cost. Based on this
analysis, we have reserved a significant portion of the amount of our assets for future plants,
spare parts and other fixed assets though there can be no assurance that additional reserves or
write offs may be required nor that a reduction in the current reserve may be recorded when the
actual realized value of the fixed assets are determined through sale or exchange.
Stock-Based Compensation
Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS 123(R) Share Based Payment using the modified
prospective approach and accordingly prior periods have not been restated to reflect the impact of
SFAS 123(R). Under SFAS 123(R), stock-based awards granted prior to January 1, 2006 will be
charged to expense over the remaining portion of their vesting period. These awards will be
charged to expense under the straight-line method using the same fair value measurements which were
used in calculating pro forma stock-based compensation expense under SFAS 123. For stock-based
awards granted on or after January 1, 2006, we determined stock-based compensation based on the
fair value method specified in SFAS 123(R), and we will amortize stock-based compensation expense
on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period.
For periods prior to January 1, 2006, SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time
of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial
estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying values reflected in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to the short
maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of convertible notes payable and capital leases
approximates their fair value based upon current market borrowing rates with similar terms and
maturities.
Comprehensive Loss
Except for net loss, we have no material components of comprehensive loss, and accordingly, the
comprehensive loss is the same as the net loss for all periods presented.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities (SFAS No. 161). SFAS 161 requires companies with derivative instruments to disclose
information that should enable financial-statement users to understand how and why a company uses
derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under
FASB Statement No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities and how
derivative instruments and related hedged items affect a companys financial position, financial
performance and cash flows. SFAS 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. We will review the effect of the adoption of
this statement, and if it applies, it is likely to have a material effect on our future financial
position or results of operations.

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement No. 141 (revised
2007), Business Combinations. The new standard requires the acquiring entity in a business
combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the
transaction; establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all
assets acquired and liabilities assumed; and requires the acquirer to disclose to investors and
other users all of the information they need to evaluate and understand the nature and financial
effect of the business combination. This Statement is effective for us starting January 1, 2009 and
we currently believe it will have no financial impact on us.
In December, 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated
Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB No. 51. This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of
a subsidiary. This statement is effective prospectively, except for certain retrospective
disclosure requirements, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We currently believe
this Statement will have no financial impact on us.
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option
for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS 159) which permits entities to choose to
measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently
required to be measured at fair value. SFAS 159 is effective for us on January 1, 2008. We
evaluated the impact of the adoption and determined that it does not have any impact on our current
financial condition or results of operations.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair
value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit
fair value measurements and, accordingly, does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS
157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15,
2007. We evaluated the impact of the adoption and determined that it does not have any impact on
our current financial condition or results of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(c) of Regulation S-B,
promulgated by the SEC.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was
performed, under the supervision of, and with the participation of, our management, including the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (who is also our Chief Accounting Officer), of
the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-(e) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). In performing this
evaluation, management reviewed, among other things, the selection, application and monitoring of
our historic accounting policies. Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures at June 30, 2008 and thereafter were effective and designed to ensure that the
information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the SEC is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported on a timely basis.

quarter ended June 30, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time we may be named in claims arising in the ordinary course of business. Currently,
no legal proceedings, government actions, administrative actions, investigations or claims are
pending against us or involve us that, in the opinion of our management, could reasonably be
expected to have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
As a small reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this item.
However, investors should recognize that an investment in our common stock is highly speculative
and involves a high degree of risk. Investors should carefully consider the risks discussed above
under Recent Developments as well as the various risks discussed in our Annual Report on
Form 10-KSB/A for fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 and in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
fiscal period ended March 31, 2008 that may continue to be applicable in light of the limited
action plan described above, before making an investment decision.
