Notes

March 31,

(Unaudited)
Note
1 — Presentation of
Interim Information:
The
unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company included
herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and in accordance with the
instructions for Form 10-Q under Article 8.03 of Regulation S-X. These
statements do not include all of the information and notes to the financial
statements required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included.
Operating
results for the six month period ended March 31, 2009, are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30,
2009. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto
for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008, included in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K, as filed with Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Note
2 – Restatement of Financial
Statements for the Fiscal Periods 2007 and 2006:
As a
result of the suspension of our prior auditor, Jasper – Hall PC, by the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) on October 28, 2008, the Company
engaged new auditors and was required to re-audit the financial statements for
the years ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2007. The financial
statements for the fiscal periods 2006 and 2007 have been restated to reflect
the adjustments to accounting estimates in those periods. In fiscal year 2007,
the total impact of these changes was to increase net loss by $679,349. $447,012
of this additional loss was related to a change in estimate for option and
warrant expenses and did not impact cash. There was also an increase to non-cash
depreciation expense of $62,354, and a decrease to accrued interest income of
approximately $77,882 that resulted from adjustments in interest calculations
corrected in the 2008 fiscal period. Additionally, there was a $65,000 asset
impairment charge and a $27,111impact to cash expenses as a result of the audit
adjustments. There was no impact to loss per share as it remained $0.01 loss per
share for the period.
In fiscal
year ended September 30, 2006, there were audit adjustments totaling $5,671,048
as reduction to net income resulting in minimal impact to cash expenses. The
largest adjustment relates to the amortization of loan fees associated with
convertible debentures issued in the 2005 and 2006 fiscal years. We took a
$6,373,156 additional charge for the amortization of expenses associated with
debenture structuring fees, debenture commitment fees, and expenses attributable
to the beneficial conversion costs for in the money stock and warrant conversion
under the debentures. Of this total, $47,216 was paid in cash, the remainder in
common stock. Depreciation expense was reduced by $66,265 and warrant and option
expenses were reduced by $486,250 for the period. This resulted in additional
non-cash net income of $552,519 that partially offset the amortization of the
loan fees associated with the convertible debentures. Interest expense was also
reduced by $111,117 and there were $38,472 of other expense adjustments made.
There was an increased loss per share associated with these restatements of
$0.05 per share bringing the total to $0.07 loss per share.
In the
three months ended March 31, 2008, the total impact of the restatement was an
increase in net loss of $158,063. $168,322 resulted from increased option and
warrant expense, $88,250 from decreased depreciation expense offset by a
decrease in interest income of $23,696 and $56,376 of other expense
adjustments.
In the
six months ended March 31, 2008, the total impact of the restatement was a
decreased net loss of $735,416. $972,221 resulted from decreased
option and warrant expense, $85,894 increase in interest income and $150,911 of
Selling, General and Administrative Expense adjustments.

Reclassification: Certain
amounts in the prior year financials have been reclassified to conform to the
current year presentation.
Note
3 — Going
Concern:
We are a
development stage company and, to date, have not generated any significant
revenues. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, which contemplate our continuation as a going concern.
Net loss for the six months ended March 31, 2009 was $1,918,638. In addition,
the Company has an accumulated deficit of $22,993,705 since
inception.
The items
discussed above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern. We cannot assure you that we can achieve or sustain profitability in
the future. Our operations are subject to the risks and competition inherent in
the establishment of a business enterprise. There can be no assurance that
future operations will be profitable. Revenues and profits, if any, will depend
upon various factors, including whether our product development can be
completed, whether our products will achieve market acceptance and whether we
obtain additional financing. We may not achieve our business objectives and the
failure to achieve such goals would have a material adverse impact on
us.
The
Company is currently working to transition from the development stage to the
implementation phase and as of the period ended March 31, 2009, did not have any
significant revenues. The transition to revenue recognition may exceed cash
generated from operations in the current and future periods. We have in the past
experienced substantial losses and negative cash flow from operations and have
required financing, including equity and debt financing, in order to pursue the
commercialization of products based on our technologies. We expect that we will
continue to need significant financing to operate our business, including
capital expenditures to install our planned production capacity. The
Company needs to raise additional capital to complete its operational
plan.
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 classifications of liabilities that my result from the possible inability of
the Company to continue as a going concern.

Note 5 - Stock-Based
Compensation:
The
Company follows SFAS No. 123(R), (“Share-Based Payment” (SFAS No. 123(R)). This
statement requires that all stock-based compensation be recognized as an expense
in the financial statements and that such cost be measured at the fair value of
the grant. This statement was adopted using the modified prospective method of
application, which requires us to recognize compensation expense on a
prospective basis. Therefore, prior period financial statements have not been
restated. Under this method, in addition to reflecting compensation expense for
new share-based grants, expense is also recognized to reflect the remaining
service period of grants that had been included in pro-forma disclosures in
prior periods.
9
XsunX
records the fair value of stock-based compensation grants as an expense. In
order to determine the fair value of stock options on the date of grant, XsunX
applies the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Inherent in this model are
assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, option life, risk-free
interest rate and dividend yield. While the risk-free interest rate and dividend
yield are less subjective assumptions, typically based on factual data derived
from public sources, the expected stock-price volatility and option life
assumptions require a greater level of judgment.
XsunX
uses an expected stock-price volatility assumption that is based on historical
implied volatilities of the underlying stock which is obtained from public data
sources. With regard to the weighted-average option life assumption, XsunX
considers the exercise behavior of past grants and models the pattern of
aggregate exercises. Patterns are determined on specific criteria of the
aggregate pool of optionees.
Forfeiture
rates are based on the Company’s historical data and future estimates for stock
option forfeitures. There are 15,295,332 options and warrants issued of which
7,751,582 are vested. The exercise price range for the Company’s options and
warrants are $0.15 to $1.69. The weighted average remaining life of the option
and warrant grants range from 2.7 years to 5 years. We have based our expected
volatility on the historical performance of our stock adjusted for extreme
period of volatility that resulted from unusual events. The range of volatility
for our options and warrants is 53% to 122% based on the specific grant. The
risk free interest rate used in our calculation was 3.54%. Total net stock-based
compensation expense is attributable to the granting of and the remaining
requisite service periods of stock options previously granted. We have recorded
$77,250 of option and warrant expense in the quarter ended March 31, 2009 and
$164,500 for the six months ending March 31, 2009 relating to current vesting of
historically granted stock options.

Note
7 — Subsequent Events:
Marketable
Production Prototype Machine:
Under the
terms of an Expanded Use License Agreement dated October 12, 2005 between XsunX
and MVSystems, Inc. the parties had agreed to build a machine to prove
technology for intended resale and split any associated profits from the sale of
the machine 50/50. This production machine was never brought operational due to
the failure to meet contractual requirements of the machine by MVSystems, and as
of the date of this report XsunX has never taken possession of the machine.
Under the terms of a Separation Agreement between the parties dated May 30, 2008
MVSystems continues to have possession of the machine but advised the Company in
April 2009 that it will not elect to exercise its purchase option for the
machine which expired May 1, 2009. MVSystems further notified the Company that
it would like to terminate its sub-lease rights of the Company’s facilities and
its possession of the machine under the Separation Agreement effective April 30,
2009. An inspection of the machine by the Company on April 30 resulted in the
determination that the machine continues to fail to meet contractual
requirements and XsunX refused to accept the termination of the sub-lease and
handover of the machine to XsunX. On May 4, 2009 XsunX provided MVSystems a
notice asserting that MVSystems is in material default of the terms of the
Separation Agreement. The parties are discussing options to rectify the
contractual obligation deficiencies, the handover of the machine to XsunX, the
termination of the sub-lease, and continued cooperation by the parties in the
marketing and sale of the machine.
Marketable
Production Prototype Machine Sales Efforts
The
Company received notice from MVSystems, Inc. in April 2009 that MVSystems was
electing to not exercise its purchase rights under a Separation Agreement
between the parties dated May 30, 2008 for the marketable prototype built by the
parties for resale. Upon receipt of the notice the XsunX began efforts to market
and sell the machine for its booked value of $1,417,000. We are engaged in
efforts to solicit buyers which have resulted in purchase inquires. The Company
is scheduling on-site demonstrations with interested parties in efforts to sell
the machine. While we believe that under these efforts the sale of the machine
may occur we cannot be assured that a sale of the machine will be
finalized.
Marketable
Production Prototype Sales Tax Dispute
Under a
notice of default provided to XsunX in November 2008 by MVSystems, Inc.,
MVSystems has claimed that a sale of the production prototype machine to XsunX
by MVSystems had occurred, and that state sales tax in the amount of
approximately $60,000 is due. XsunX disputes this claim. MVSystems subsequently
filed a request with the State of Colorado Department of Revenue for a
determination on this matter without the consent of XsunX and for what the
Company believes are strategic purposes related to the parties’ ongoing dispute
over the machine. In March 2009 XsunX received notice from the State of Colorado
offering determination that a sale had occurred and that sales tax and penalties
in the amount of approximately $91,000 were due on what XsunX believes to be an
incorrect basis cost for the machine of $1,775,000. The Company believes that
the tax auditor’s findings contain material faults related to the interpretation
of the transaction as a result of the information provided by MVSystems in their
determination request. On April 10, 2009 the Company filed a protest and hearing
request disputing the findings of the tax auditor and requested that the total
tax liability determination be reversed. As of the date of this report we have
not received a response form the Colorado State tax auditor office. While we
believe that the material facts outlined within the auditor’s determination were
based on information interpreted incorrectly and is likely to be reversed upon
appeal, we have a potential contingent liability in the amount of $72,800 for
tax on the actual basis cost of the machine of $1,417,000 for payment of this
tax.
Reversal
of Accounts Payable Invoice
In
October 2008 the Company received an invoice in the amount of $2,500,000 related
to the design and construction of thin film deposition equipment under a
purchase order between a vendor and the Company. While the Company worked with
the vendor to verify and approve the contractual compliance of the deliverables
associated with the invoice the Company reported this invoice as a liability in
its quarterly report for the period ended December 31, 2008 on Form 10Q. We have
completed a review of the deliverables and the vendor’s compliance with
contractual requirements and have determined that the deliverables under the
invoice do not meet the required contractual specifications. For the period
ended March 31, 2009 the Company has reversed the $2,500,000 accounts payable
liability. Manufacturing Equipment in Progress has been reduced by $2,500,000.
The Company may re-book this liability subject to the receipt of deliverables
meeting the requirements under the purchase agreement.
11
Leased
Facility Transactions
Effective
April 1, 2009 the Company reduced its leased facilities at its Aliso Viejo, CA
offices by approximately 50%. This resulted in associated reductions to monthly
lease and facility expenses totaling approximately $2,000 leaving a monthly
lease and facility liability of approximately $1,400.
The
Company and Merix Corp., its landlord for the Company’s facilities located at
its 23365 Halsey, Wood Village Oregon have agreed to the application
of approximately $99,000 in monthly lease and facility over-payments
made by XsunX to Merix under monthly lease and facility billings that over
stated actual insurance and property tax liabilities. This credit was applied to
accrued monthly facility lease obligation in the period ended March 31,
2009.

Business
Overview
XsunX,
Inc. is a thin-film photovoltaic (“TFPV”) Company which is currently developing
the infrastructure to manufacture high performance TFPV solar modules to address
growth in demand for solar modules within the electrical power production
markets, and to satisfy contractual commitments for the sale and delivery of
approximately 19 megawatts of solar modules in 2010 and 2011 calendar periods.
To accomplish this we are working to complete the execution of a plan to build a
thin film solar module manufacturing facility located in the
Portland Oregon, USA area. We are working to complete the
installation of our base production infrastructure and develop initial
production capacities necessary to satisfy our contractual sales
commitments.
Upon
completion and operation of our initial manufacturing system we anticipate that
our per watt production costs will decrease over the next several years of
operation as we work to further optimize solar module output per line, validate
and then utilize newer and less costly packaging materials, increase the
sellable watts per solar module, expand production capacities, and leverage
economies of scale to better absorb certain fixed costs. Our goal is to drive
our per watt solar module production costs to or below $1.00 per watt as rapidly
as possible, a price point that may allow us to offer a solar electricity
production solution that can generate electricity on a non-subsidized basis at a
cost equal to the price of retail electricity within certain domestic and
foreign markets conducive to solar power production.
RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2009 COMPARED TO THE
SAME PERIOD IN 2008
Revenue:
The
Company generated no revenues in the three month period ended March 31, 2009 and
2008. Additionally, there was no associated cost of sales
Sales, General and
Administrative Expenses:
Sales,
General and Administrative Expenses for the three
month period ended March 31, 2009 totaled $849,806. This represents a decrease
of $14,010 as compared to the same period in 2008 which totaled $863,816. The
decreased operating expenses between the periods is primarily attributable to
increased consulting expenses relating to the planning and preparation for our
manufacturing facility, increased legal fees associated with the conclusion of
several matters, an increase in rent expense for the manufacturing facility in
Oregon, an increase in sales and property taxes related to equipment in Colorado
and property taxes in Oregon, and higher wages and salaries cost. These
increased costs were more than offset by reductions in travel expense, public
relations expenses, research and development expenses, a refund of sales taxes
charged in California that were not owed.. A comparative analysis of
the period to period performance is provided below.
13
Salaries and
Wages:
Salaries
and wages for the three month period ended March 31, 2009 were $314,232 as
compared to $283,575 during the same period in 2008. The increase of $30,656 was
driven by an increase to salaries related to retention of key employees and the
addition of new employee’s necessary for the launch of our plans to build and
establish thin film solar module manufacturing infrastructure. There
were six full and part time employees at March 31, 2009 as compared to seven
full time employees at December 31, 2008. In March 2009, several
employees were placed on furlough pending continued build out of the
manufacturing facility, were changed from an employee to contract status or were
placed on part time in an effort to conserve capital.
Professional
Services:
Public
relations and marketing expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2009
totaled $40,377 as compared to $134,230 during this same period in 2008. The
decrease of $93,853 represents decreased utilization of public relations during
the period after several quarters of intensive public relations efforts working
on building brand and market awareness.
Consulting
expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2009 totaled $204,764 as
compared to $108,803 during the same period in 2008, an increase of $95,961.
This increase is largely due to higher utilization of consulting services
associated with the planning and preparation for our manufacturing facility and
for the payment of board of director fees as well as the hiring of a contract HR
manager to facilitate hiring in Oregon. Payments to the Board of
Directors and the scientific advisory committee have been suspended late in the
period to conserve available cash.
Legal and
accounting fees for the three month period ended March 31, 2009 totaled $77,096
as compared to $47,181 during the same period in 2008. This represents an
increase of $29,915 largely driven by increased expenditures for legal services
related to equipment and materials contract review and the efforts to defend
claims by a third party for payment of fees for claimed services and higher
review fees.
Travel and
Entertainment:
Expenses
for travel and entertainment were $21,071 for the three month period ended March
31, 2009. This compared to $62,386 for the same period in 2008. This decrease of
$41,315 was a cost containment move to conserve cash by limited travel and
entertainment expenses to high priority travel only.
Depreciation
Expense:
Depreciation
expense for the three months period ending March 31, 2009 has a non-cash impact
of $40,337. $643,770 of total fixed assets placed in service is
depreciated using the straight line method of depreciation over periods ranging
from three to five years. Lease hold improvements are depreciated on
a straight line basis over the life of the lease.
Forgiveness of
Debt:
During
the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company wrote off the remainder of
the accounts payable associated with the settlement agreement with MVSystems for
a non-cash total of $287,381. This represents potential liabilities
that were eliminated as a result of the settlement agreement.
Option and Warrant
Expenses:
Option
and Warrant expense for the three month period ending March 31, 2009 was $77,250
as compared to $168,321 during the same period in 2008. This
reduction of $91,072 was related primarily to the vesting of current options and
the cancellation of options that had vesting expenses in previous
periods.
14
The net
loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $(679,026) as compared to a
net loss of ($959,123) for the same period 2008. The decreased net loss of
$280,097 includes (i) The operating expense changes discussed above, (ii) a
decrease in interest income of $54,433 relating to the repayment of the Sencera
note and associated interest income and (iii) a further write off of accounts
payable associated with the settlement agreement with MVS of $287,381 which is
no longer payable.
The
associated net loss per share was less than one cent for the three month period
ended March 31, 2009 and $(0.01) for the same period in 2008. The Company
anticipates the trend of losses to continue in future quarters until the Company
can recognize sales of significance of which there is no
assurance.
RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2009 COMPARED TO THE SAME
PERIOD IN 2008
Revenue:
The
Company generated no revenues in the six-month period ended March 31, 2009 and
2008. Additionally, there was no associated cost of sales.
Sales, General and
Administrative Expenses:
Sales,
General and Administrative Expenses for the six
month period ended March 31, 2009 totaled $1,986,119. This represents an
increase of $673,405 as compared to the same period in 2008 which totaled
$1,312,714. The increase in operating expenses between the periods is primarily
attributable to increased consulting expenses relating to the planning and
preparation for our manufacturing facility, increased legal fees associated with
the conclusion of several matters, an increase in rent expense for the
manufacturing facility in Oregon, an increase in sales and property taxes
related to equipment in Colorado and property taxes in Oregon., and higher wages
and salaries cost. These increased costs were partially offset by reductions in
research and development, public relations and travel expense. A
comparative analysis of the period to period performance is provided
below.
Salaries and
Wages:
Salaries
and wages for the six month period ended March 31, 2009 were $694,440 as
compared to $519,091 during the same period in 2008. The increase of $175,349
was driven by an increase to salaries related to retention of key employees and
the addition of new employee’s necessary for the launch of our plans to build
and establish thin film solar module manufacturing
infrastructure. There were six full and part time employees at March
31, 2009 as compared to seven full time employees at December 31,
2008. In March 2009, several employees were placed on furlough
pending continued build out of the manufacturing facility, were changed from an
employee to contract status or were placed on part time in an effort to conserve
capital.
Professional
Services:
Public
relations and marketing expense for the six month period ended March 31, 2009
totaled $137,742 as compared to $202,904 during this same period in 2008. The
decrease of $65,162 represents decreased utilization of public relations during
the period after several quarters of intensive public relations efforts working
on building brand and market awareness.
Consulting
expenses for the six month period ended March 31, 2009 totaled $263,241 as
compared to $139,789 during the same period in 2008, an increase of $123,452.
This increase is largely due to higher utilization of consulting services
associated with the planning and preparation for our manufacturing facility and
for the payment of board of director fees as well as the hiring of a contract HR
manager to facilitate hiring in Oregon. Payments to the Board of
Directors and the scientific advisory committee have been suspended late in the
period to conserve available cash.
Legal and
accounting fees for the six month period ended March 31, 2009 totaled $201,936
as compared to $57,509 during the same period in 2008. This represents an
increase of $144,427 largely driven by increased expenditures for legal services
related to equipment and materials contract review and the efforts to defend
claims by a third party for payment of fees for claimed services and higher
audit fees related to the re-audit of the September 30, 2006 and 2008 financial
statements.
15
Travel and
Entertainment:
Expenses
for travel and entertainment were $50,908 for the six month period ended March
31, 2009. This compared to $94,339 for the same period in 2008. This decrease of
$43,431 was a cost containment move to conserve cash by limited travel and
entertainment expenses to high priority travel only.
Depreciation
Expense:
Depreciation
expense for the six months period ending March 31, 2009 has a non-cash impact of
$77,389. $643,770 of total fixed assets placed in service is
depreciated using the straight line method of depreciation over periods ranging
from three to five years. Lease hold improvements are depreciated on
a straight line basis over the life of the lease.
Forgiveness of
Debt:
During
the six months ended March 31, 2008, the Company wrote off the remainder of the
accounts payable associated with the settlement agreement with MVSystems for a
non-cash total of $287,381. This represents potential liabilities
that were eliminated as a result of the settlement agreement.
Option and Warrant
Expenses:
Option
and Warrant expense for the six month period ending March 31, 2009 was $154,500
as compared to $336,644 during the same period in 2008. This
reduction of $182,143 was related primarily to the vesting of current options
and the cancellation of options that had vesting expenses in previous
periods.
The net
loss for the six months ended March 31, 2009 was $(1,918,638) as compared to a
net loss of ($1,559,859) for the same period 2008. The increased net loss of
$358,779 includes (i) The operating expense changes discussed above, (ii) a
decrease in interest income of $109,605 relating to the repayment of the Sencera
note and associated interest income, and (iii) a further write off of accounts
payable associated with the settlement agreement with MVS of $287,381 which is
no longer payable.
The
associated net loss per share was $(0.01) for the six month period ended March
31, 2009 and $(0.01) for the same period in 2008. The Company anticipates the
trend of losses to continue in future quarters until the Company can recognize
sales of significance of which there is no assurance.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The
Company had cash at March 31, 2009 of $957,387, a as compared to cash of
$2,389,218as of September 30, 2008. The Company had net working capital of
$776,650 as compared to a net working capital of $3,321,294 at September 30,
2008. Cash flow used in operating activities during the six-month period ended,
March 31, 2009, was $562,935 as compared to a use of cash of $806,490 for the
same period 2008. The primary driver of this change was an increase in accounts
payable.

|
Represents
the total contractual purchase obligations represented by purchase orders
for manufacturing equipment. The total obligations under these agreements
is $38,264,635 of which, $5,450,048 has been paid on the obligations.
Future scheduled payments are tied to progress made on the delivery of the
associated equipment. There is an additional $624,857 of accounts payable
currently due on these obligations. The timing of these
payments may vary due to the progress actually made by the
vendors.
|
The
estimated contract cost in item (2) above may be higher or lower based on final
costs. The Company has not booked any contingency for cost
overruns.
For the
six months ended March 31, 2009, the Company's capital needs have been met from
the use of working capital provided by the proceeds of (i) the Company’s working
capital and (ii) an additional $600,000 cash from the issuance of common stock
to Fusion Capital.
DEVELOPMENT
STAGE COMPANY
The
Company is currently working to transition from the development stage to the
implementation phase and as of the period ended March 31, 2009, did not have any
significant revenues. The transition to revenue recognition may exceed cash
generated from operations in the current and future periods. We have in the past
experienced substantial losses and negative cash flow from operations and have
required financing, including equity and debt financing, in order to pursue the
commercialization of products based on our technologies. We expect that we will
continue to need significant financing to operate our business, including
capital expenditures to install our planned production
capacity. Although the Company entered into a financing arrangement
with Fusion Capital Fund II, LLC pursuant to which the Company has the right
over a 25-month period to receive $80,000 every two business days under such
financing arrangement unless our stock price equals or exceeds $0.30, in which
case we can sell greater amounts to Fusion Capital as the price of our common
stock increases, Fusion Capital shall not have the right or the obligation to
purchase any shares of our common stock on any business day that the market
price of our common stock is less than $0.20. As of May 15, 2009, the
Company’s stock was trading at approximately $0.15 and therefore, the Company is
not presently able to draw down on this financing arrangement. Furthermore,
there can be no assurance that additional financing will be available or that
the terms of such additional financing, if available, will be acceptable to us.
If additional financing is not available or not available on terms acceptable to
us, our ability to fund our operations, develop and install or expand our
manufacturing operations and sales network, maintain our research and
development efforts or otherwise respond to competitive pressures may be
significantly impaired. We could also be forced to curtail our business
operations, reduce our investments, decrease or eliminate capital expenditures
and delay the execution of its business plan, including, without limitation, the
installation of our planned production in Oregon, which would have a material
adverse affect on our business.
While we
have been able to raise capital in a series of equity and debt offerings in the
past there can be no assurances that we will be able to obtain such additional
financing, on terms acceptable to us and at the times required, or at
all.
Irrespective
of whether the Company's cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet the
Company's operational needs, the Company might seek to compensate providers of
services by issuances of stock in lieu of cash.
Item
3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We do not
have any market risk sensitive instruments. Since all operations are in U.S.
dollar denominated accounts, we do not have foreign currency risk. Our operating
costs are reported in U.S. dollars.
17
The
Company does not invest in term financial products or instruments or derivatives
involving risk other than money market accounts, which fluctuate with interest
rates at market.
Item
4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
The
Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls to
ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s filings under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and
forms. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such
term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of
the end of the period covered by this report. The evaluation included certain
control areas in which we have made, and are continuing to make, changes to
improve and enhance controls. A material weakness is a condition in which the
design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not
reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused by error or
fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements
being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees
in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. Based on such
evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
concluded that, as of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and
procedures were effective, and we have discovered no material
weakness.
Changes in Internal Control over
Financial Reporting
There
have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as
such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act)
during our second fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
PART
II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item
1. Legal Proceedings.
In the
ordinary conduct of our business, we are subject to periodic lawsuits,
investigations and claims, including, but not limited to, routine employment
matters. Although we cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolution of
lawsuits, investigations and claims asserted against us, we are currently not
aware of nor have any knowledge of any legal proceedings or claims that we
believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse affect
on our business, financial condition or operating results.
Item
1A. Risk Factors
An
investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should
carefully consider the following risk factors, as well as the other information
in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in evaluating XsunX and our business. If
any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition and results
of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Accordingly, the
trading price of our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of
your investment in our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described below
are not the only ones we face. Additional risks that we currently do not know
about or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also impair our business
operations.
We Have Not Generated Any Significant
Revenues and Our Financial Statements Raise Substantial Doubt
About Our Ability to Continue As A Going Concern
We are a
development stage company and, to date, have not generated any significant
revenues. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, which contemplate our continuation as a going concern.
Net loss for the periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was $679,026 and $959,122,
respectively. Net loss for the six months ended March 31, 2009 and
2008 was $ 1,918,637 and $1,559,859, respectively. Net cash used in
operations was $562,935 and net cash used in operations was $(806,490) for the
six months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. From inception through
March 31, 2009, we had an accumulated deficit of $22,993,705.
18
The items
discussed above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going
concern. We cannot assure you that we can achieve or sustain profitability in
the future. Our operations are subject to the risks and competition inherent in
the establishment of a business enterprise. There can be no assurance that
future operations will be profitable. Revenues and profits, if any, will depend
upon various factors, including whether our product development can be
completed, whether our products will achieve market acceptance and whether we
obtain additional financing. We may not achieve our business objectives and the
failure to achieve such goals would have a materially adverse impact on
us.
We will
require significant financing in order to execute our operating plan and
continue as a going concern. We cannot predict whether this additional
financing, if available, will be in the form of equity, debt, or another form.
We may not be able to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis,
on acceptable terms, or at all. In any of these events, we may be unable to
implement our current plans for expansion, repay our debt obligations as they
become due or respond to competitive pressures, any of which circumstances would
have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition
and results of operations. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and reclassification of recorded
asset amounts or amounts and reclassification of liabilities that might be
necessary, should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Should
financing sources fail to materialize, management would seek alternate funding
sources such as the sale of common and/or preferred stock, the issuance of debt,
or the sale of our marketable assets.
In the
event that these financing sources do not materialize, or that we are
unsuccessful in increasing our revenues and profits, we will be forced to
further reduce our costs, may be unable to repay our debt obligations as they
become due, or respond to competitive pressures, any of which circumstances
would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial
condition and results of operations. Additionally, if these funding sources or
increased revenues and profits do not materialize, and we are unable to secure
additional financing, we could be forced to reduce or cease our business
operations.
We
will need to obtain significant additional financing to continue to operate our
business, including significant capital expenditures to complete the
installation of our planned annum production capacity, and financing may be
unavailable or available only on disadvantageous terms which could cause the
Company to curtail its business operations and delay the execution of its
business plan
We have
in the past experienced substantial losses and negative cash flow from
operations during our development stage and have required financing, including
equity and debt financing, in order to pursue the commercialization of products
based on our technologies. We expect that we will continue to need significant
financing to operate our business, including capital expenditures to install our
planned production capacity. Although the Company entered into a
financing arrangement with Fusion Capital Fund II, LLC pursuant to which the
Company has the right over a 25-month period to receive $80,000 every two
business days under such financing arrangement unless our stock price equals or
exceeds $0.30, in which case we can sell greater amounts to Fusion Capital as
the price of our common stock increases, Fusion Capital shall not have the right
or the obligation to purchase any shares of our common stock on any business day
that the market price of our common stock is less than $0.20. As of
May 15, 2009, the Company’s stock was trading at approximately $0.15 and
therefore, the Company is not presently able to draw down on this financing
arrangement. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that additional
financing will be available or that the terms of such additional financing, if
available, will be acceptable to us. If additional financing is not available or
not available on terms acceptable to us, our ability to fund our operations,
develop and install or expand our manufacturing operations and sales network,
maintain our research and development efforts or otherwise respond to
competitive pressures may be significantly impaired. We could also be forced to
curtail our business operations, reduce our investments, decrease or eliminate
capital expenditures and delay the execution of its business plan, including,
without limitation, the installation of our planned production in Oregon, which
would have a material adverse affect on our business.
19
We
May Be Required To Raise Additional Financing By Issuing New Securities With
Terms Or Rights Superior To Those Of Our Shares Of Common Stock, Which Could
Adversely Affect The Market Price Of Our Shares Of Common Stock and Our
Business
We may
require additional financing to fund future operations, including expansion in
current and new markets, development and acquisition, capital costs and the
costs of any necessary implementation of technological innovations or
alternative technologies. We may not be able to obtain financing on favorable
terms, if at all. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, the
percentage ownership of our current stockholders will be reduced, and the
holders of the new equity securities may have rights superior to those of the
holders of shares of common stock, which could adversely affect the market price
and the voting power of shares of our common stock. If we raise additional funds
by issuing debt securities, the holders of these debt securities would similarly
have some rights senior to those of the holders of shares of common stock, and
the terms of these debt securities could impose restrictions on operations and
create a significant interest expense for us which could have a materially
adverse affect on our business.
We
are working to establish our manufacturing capacity for TFPV products in order
to meet anticipated demand, and our revenues and profits may decrease if we are
unable to successfully complete our planned manufacturing capacity and then sell
our TFPV products at volumes to match our available production
capacity.
We are
working to establish initial manufacturing capacity and plan to expand
manufacturing capacity as rapidly as possible. This plan includes adding a new
facility in Oregon. We will be installing and testing the equipment for this
manufacturing facility internally and through third parties. We may experience
delays, additional or unexpected costs and other adverse events in connection
with our projects, including those associated with the equipment we purchase
from third parties. Additionally, there can be no assurance that market demand
will absorb our manufacturing capacity or that our marketing capabilities will
be successful. As a result, we may not be able to realize revenues and profits
based upon the expected capacity, or we may experience delays or reductions in
these revenues and profits, and our business could be materially adversely
affected.
If
future products based on our technologies cannot be developed for manufacture
and sold commercially or our products become obsolete or noncompetitive, we may
be unable to recover our investments or achieve profitability which will have a
materially adverse affect on our business
There can
be no assurance that such research and development efforts will be successful or
that we will be able to develop commercial applications for our products and
technologies. Further, the areas in which we are developing technologies and
products are characterized by rapid and significant technological change. Rapid
technological development may result in our products becoming obsolete or
noncompetitive. If future products based on our technologies cannot be developed
for manufacture and sold commercially or our products become obsolete or
noncompetitive, we may be unable to recover our investments or achieve
profitability. In addition, the commercialization schedule may be delayed if we
experience delays in meeting development goals, if products based on our
technologies exhibit technical defects, or if we are unable to meet cost or
performance goals. In this event, potential purchasers of products based on our
technologies may choose alternative technologies and any delays could allow
potential competitors to gain market advantages.
There
is no assurance that the market will accept our products once commercial-scale
manufacturing has been achieved which could have an adverse affect on our
business
There can
be no assurance that products based on our technologies will be perceived as
being superior to existing products or new products being developed by competing
companies or that such products will otherwise be accepted by consumers. The
market prices for products based on our technologies may exceed the prices of
competitive products based on existing technologies or new products based on
technologies currently under development by competitors. There can be no
assurance that the prices of products based on our technologies will be
perceived by consumers as cost-effective or that the prices of such products
will be competitive with existing products or with other new products or
technologies. If consumers do not accept products based on our technologies, we
may be unable to recover our investments or achieve
profitability.
20
Other
companies, many of which have greater resources than we have, may develop
competing products or technologies which cause products based on our
technologies to become noncompetitive which could have an adverse affect on our
business
We will
be competing with firms, both domestic and foreign, that perform research and
development, as well as firms that manufacture and sell solar products. In
addition, we expect additional potential competitors to enter the markets for
solar products in the future. Some of these current and potential competitors
are among the largest industrial companies in the world with longer operating
histories, greater name recognition, access to larger customer bases,
well-established business organizations and product lines and significantly
greater resources and research and development staff and facilities. There can
be no assurance that one or more such companies will not succeed in developing
technologies or products that will become available for commercial sale prior to
our products, that will have performance superior to products based on our
technologies or that would otherwise render our products noncompetitive. If we
fail to compete successfully, our business would suffer and we may lose or be
unable to gain market share.
The
loss of strategic relationships used in the development of our products and the
systems and components to our planned manufacturing system could impede our
ability to complete and produce our product and/or our initial manufacturing
system and may have a material adverse affect on our business
We have
established a plan of operations under which a portion of our operations rely on
strategic relationships with third parties, to provide systems design, assembly
and support. A loss of any of our third party relationships for any reason could
cause us to experience difficulties in implementing our business strategy. There
can be no assurance that we could establish other relationships of adequate
expertise in a timely manner or at all.
We
may suffer the loss of key personnel or may be unable to attract and retain
qualified personnel to maintain and expand our business which could have a
material adverse affect on our business
Our
success is highly dependent on the continued services of a limited number of
skilled managers, scientists and technicians. The loss of any of these
individuals could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, our success
will depend upon, among other factors, the recruitment and retention of
additional highly skilled and experienced management and technical personnel.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to retain existing employees or
to attract and retain additional personnel on acceptable terms given the
competition for such personnel in industrial, academic and nonprofit research
sectors.
Higher
raw material costs could negatively impact our cost of goods and our ability to
successfully develop our products and technologies which could have a material
adverse affect on our business
Higher
costs for certain raw materials and commodities, principally glass, resin-based
polymers and industrial gases, as well as higher energy costs, could negatively
impact our cost of operations. While we have developed strategies to mitigate or
partially offset the impact of higher raw material, commodity and energy costs,
there can be no assurances such measures will be successful. In addition, no
assurances can be given that the magnitude and duration of these cost increases
or any future cost increases will not have a larger adverse impact on our
profitability and consolidated financial position than currently anticipated. As
part of our planned research and development activities, we are attempting to
reduce costs through improved automation and substitution strategies. There can
be no assurances that we will succeed in these future cost-reduction efforts,
which may be essential for the continued development of our competitive
presence.
Standards
For Compliance With Section 404 Of The Sarbanes-Oxley Act Of 2002 Are Uncertain,
And If We Fail To Comply In A Timely Manner, Our Business Could Be Harmed And
Our Stock Price Could Decline
Rules
adopted by the SEC, pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
require annual assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, and
attestation of our assessment by our independent registered public accountants.
The standards that must be met for management to assess the internal control
over financial reporting as effective are new and complex, and require
significant documentation, testing and possible remediation to meet the detailed
standards and will impose significant additional expenses on us. We may
encounter problems or delays in completing activities necessary to make an
assessment of our internal control over financial reporting. In addition, the
attestation process by our independent registered public accountants is new and
we may encounter problems or delays in completing the implementation of any
requested improvements and receiving an attestation of our assessment by our
independent registered public accountants. If we cannot assess our internal
control over financial reporting as effective, or our independent registered
public accountants are unable to provide an unqualified attestation report on
such assessment, investor confidence and share value may be negatively
impacted.
21
Our
Common Stock Is Considered A “Penny Stock” And As A Result, Related
Broker-Dealer Requirements Affect It’s Trading And Liquidity.
Our
common stock is considered to be a “penny stock” since it meets one or more of
the definitions in Rules 15g-2 through 15g-6 promulgated under Section 15(g) of
the Exchange Act. These include but are not limited to the following: (i) the
common stock trades at a price less than $5.00 per share; (ii) the common stock
is not traded on a “recognized” national exchange; (iii) the common stock is not
quoted on the NASDAQ Stock Market, or (iv) the common stock is issued by a
company with average revenues of less than $6.0 million for the past three (3)
years. The principal result or effect of being designated a “penny stock” is
that securities broker-dealers cannot recommend our Common Stock to investors,
thus hampering its liquidity.
Section
15(g) and Rule 15g-2 require broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide
potential investors with documentation disclosing the risks of penny stocks and
to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the documents before
effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Potential
investors in our Common Stock are urged to obtain and read such disclosure
carefully before purchasing any of our shares.
Moreover,
Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any
investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that
investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer to (i) obtain from the
investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment
experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that
information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and
that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably
capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the
investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the
broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed
and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it
accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience
and investment objectives.
The
Trading Market In our Common Stock Is Limited And May Cause Volatility In The
Market Price.
Our
common stock is currently traded on a limited basis on the OTCBB. The OTCBB
provides significantly less liquidity than the NASDAQ Stock Market and the other
national markets. Quotes for stocks included on the OTCBB are not listed in the
financial sections of newspapers as are those for the NASDAQ Stock Market.
Therefore, prices for securities traded solely on the OTCBB may be difficult to
obtain.
The
quotation of our common stock on the OTCBB does not assure that a meaningful,
consistent and liquid trading market currently exists, and in recent years such
market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have
particularly affected the market prices of many smaller companies like us. Thus,
the market price for our common stock is subject to volatility and holders of
common stock may be unable to resell their shares at or near their original
purchase price or at any price. In the absence of an active trading
market:
|
·
|
investors
may have difficulty buying and selling or obtaining market
quotations;
|
|
·
|
market
visibility for our common stock may be limited;
and
|
|
·
|
a lack of visibility for our
common stock may have a depressive effect on the market for our common
stock.
|
22
Due to
the low price of the securities, many brokerage firms may not be willing to
effect transactions in the securities. Even if a purchaser finds a broker
willing to effect a transaction in these securities, the combination of
brokerage commissions, state transfer taxes, if any, and any other selling costs
may exceed the selling price. Further, many lending institutions will not permit
the use of such securities as collateral for any loans. Such
restrictions could have a materially adverse affect on our
business.
We
May Have Difficulty Raising Necessary Capital To Fund Operations As A Result Of
Market Price Volatility For Our Shares Of Common Stock.
The
market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could
fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are
beyond our control, including:
·
|
technological innovations or new
products and services by us or our
competitors;
|
·
|
additions or departures of key
personnel;
|
·
|
sales of our common
stock;
|
·
|
our ability to integrate
operations, technology, products and
services;
|
·
|
our ability to execute our
business plan;
|
·
|
operating results below
expectations;
|
·
|
loss of any strategic
relationship;
|
·
|
industry
developments;
|
·
|
economic and other external
factors; and
|

period-to-period fluctuations in
our financial results.
|
Because
we have a limited operating history with limited revenues to date, you may
consider any one of these factors to be material. Our stock price may fluctuate
widely as a result of any of the above listed factors. In recent
years, the securities markets in the United States have experienced a high level
of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many
companies have experienced wide fluctuations that have not necessarily been
related to the operations, performances, underlying asset values or prospects of
such companies. For these reasons, our shares of common stock can also be
expected to be subject to volatility resulting from purely market forces over
which we will have no control. If our business development plans are successful,
we may require additional financing to continue to develop and exploit existing
and new technologies and to expand into new markets. The exploitation of our
technologies may, therefore, be dependent upon our ability to obtain financing
through debt and equity or other means.

Changes to Plan of
Operations
In
response to the slowdown in the global economy affecting the credit and equities
markets which has limited the Company’s access to financing, in the period ended
March 31, 2009, the Company began working to prepare an alternate plan of
operations to better address these limitations. In an effort to reduce initial
business development capital requirements the Company has worked to re-size
planned manufacturing capacities to more closely match existing solar module
sales agreements for product deliveries in 2010 and 2011. Through the
implementation of revised plans the Company believes that initial production
capacities could be reduced by approximately 50% from 25MW to approximately 13MW
which the Company then anticipates could be scaled to approximately 20MW of
production once fully optimized. While the Company continues to work to secure
additional financing for its planned operations, it has implemented cost
reductions to salaries, facility costs, and day to day operations which have
resulted in a reduction in monthly operating costs by approximately 30% and the
use of cash by approximately 45% compared to average monthly operating costs in
the January and February periods 2009.
Marketable
Production Prototype Machine and Facilities Sublease
Under the
terms of an Expanded Use License Agreement dated October 12, 2005 between XsunX
and MVSystems, Inc. the parties had agreed to build a machine to prove
technology for intended resale and split any associated profits from the sale of
the machine 50/50. This production machine was never brought operational due to
the failure to meet contractual requirements of the machine by MVSystems, and as
of the date of this report XsunX has never taken possession of the machine.
Under the terms of a Separation Agreement between the parties dated May 30, 2008
MVSystems continues to have possession of the machine but advised the Company in
April 2009 that it will not elect to exercise its purchase option for the
machine which expired May 1, 2009. MVSystems further notified the Company that
it would like to terminate its sub-lease rights of the Company’s facilities and
its possession of the machine under the Separation Agreement effective April 30,
2009. An inspection of the machine by the Company on April 30 resulted in the
determination that the machine continues to fail to meet contractual
requirements and XsunX refused to accept the termination of the sub-lease and
handover of the machine to XsunX. On May 4, 2009 XsunX provided MVSystems a
notice asserting that MVSystems is in material default of the terms of the
Separation Agreement. The parties are discussing options to rectify the
contractual obligation deficiencies, the handover of the machine to XsunX, the
termination of the sub-lease, and continued cooperation by the parties in the
marketing and sale of the machine.
Marketable
Production Prototype Machine Sales Efforts
The
Company received notice from MVSystems, Inc. in April 2009 that MVSystems was
electing to not exercise its purchase rights under a Separation Agreement
between the parties dated May 30, 2008 for the marketable prototype built by the
parties for resale. Upon receipt of the notice the XsunX began efforts to market
and sell the machine for its booked value of $1,417,000. We are engaged in
efforts to solicit buyers which have resulted in purchase inquires. The Company
is scheduling on-site demonstrations with interested parties in efforts to sell
the machine. While we believe that under these efforts the sale of the machine
may occur we can not be assured that a sale of the machine will be
finalized.
Marketable
Production Prototype Sales Tax Dispute
Under a
notice of default provided to XsunX in November 2008 by MVSystems, Inc.,
MVSystems has claimed that a sale of the production prototype machine to XsunX
by MVSystems had occurred, and that state sales tax in the amount of
approximately $60,000 is due. XsunX disputes this claim. MVSystems subsequently
filed a request with the State of Colorado Department of Revenue for a
determination on this matter without the consent of XsunX and for what the
Company believes are strategic purposes related to the parties’ ongoing dispute
over the machine. In March 2009 XsunX received notice from the State of Colorado
offering determination that a sale had occurred and that sales tax and penalties
in the amount of approximately $91,000 were due on what XsunX believes to be an
incorrect basis cost for the machine of $1,775,000. The Company believes that
the tax auditor’s findings contain material faults related to the interpretation
of the transaction as a result of the information provided by MVSystems in their
determination request. On April 10, 2009 the Company filed a protest and hearing
request disputing the findings of the tax auditor and requested that the total
tax liability determination be reversed. As of the date of this report we have
not received a response form the Colorado State tax auditor office. While we
believe that the material facts outlined within the auditor’s determination were
based on information interpreted incorrectly we have assigned a contingency in
the amount of $72,800 for tax on the actual basis cost of the machine of
$1,417,000 for payment of this tax.
Reversal
of Accounts Payable Invoice
In
October 2008 the Company received an invoice in the amount of $2,500,000 related
to the design and construction of thin film deposition equipment under a
purchase order between a vendor and the Company. While the Company worked with
the vendor to verify and approve the contractual compliance of the deliverables
associated with the invoice the Company reported this invoice as a liability in
its quarterly report for the period ended December 31, 2008 on Form 10Q. We have
completed a review of the deliverables and the vendor’s compliance with
contractual requirements and have determined that the deliverables under the
invoice do not meet the required contractual specifications. For the period
ended March 31, 2009 the Company has reversed the $2,500,000 accounts payable
liability. Manufacturing Equipment in Progress has been reduced by $2,500,000.
The Company may re-book this liability subject to the receipt of deliverables
meeting the requirements under the purchase agreement.

Facility
Transactions
Effective
April 1, 2009 the Company reduced its leased facilities at its Aliso Viejo, CA
offices by approximately 50%. This resulted in associated reductions to monthly
lease and facility expenses totaling approximately $2,000 leaving a monthly
lease and facility liability of approximately $1,400.
The
Company and Merix Corp., its landlord for the Company’s facilities located at
its 23365 Halsey, Wood Village Oregon have agreed to the application
of approximately $99,000 in monthly lease and facility over-payments
made by XsunX to Merix under monthly lease and facility billings that over
stated actual insurance and property tax liabilities. This credit was applied to
accrued monthly facility lease obligation in the period ended March 31,
2009.
Adjustments
to Sales Agreements
The
Company has previously disclosed that it had entered into sales agreements
valued at approximately $47 million dollars for the delivery of 19 megawatts of
solar modules spanning the 2009 and 2010 calendar periods. As of the date of
this report these agreements have been modified to provide for a change in
delivery periods and pricing. The revised agreements now have an aggregate value
of approximately $43 million and provide for the delivery of solar modules to
spanning the 2010 and 2011 calendar periods.
