CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-Q (“Report”) contains “forward looking statements” within the meaning of applicable securities laws.  Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the Company’s beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, goals and expectations, including expectations about the future financial or operating performance of the Company and its projects, capital expenditures, capital needs, government regulation of the industry, environmental risks, limitations of insurance coverage, and the timing and possible outcome of regulatory matters, including the granting of patents and permits.  Words such as “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “attempt”, “may”, “will”, “plan”, “believe”, “seek”, “estimate”, and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve assumptions, risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict.
 
These statements are based on and were developed using a number of factors and assumptions including, but not limited to: stability in the U.S. and other foreign economies; stability in the availability and pricing of raw materials, energy and supplies; stability in the competitive environment; the continued ability of the Company to access cost effective capital when needed; and no unexpected or unforeseen events occurring that would materially alter the Company’s current plans.   All of these assumptions have been derived from statements currently available to the Company including information obtained by the Company from third party sources. Although management believes that these assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions may prove to be incorrect in whole or in part. As a result of these and other factors, actual results may differ materially from those expressed, implied or forecasted in such forward looking statements, which reflect the Company’s expectations only as of the date hereof.
 
Factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from the results expressed, implied or forecasted by the forward looking statements include risks associated with general business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties; risks associated with changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; risks associated with failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; risks associated with accidents or labor disputes; risks associated in delays in obtaining governmental approvals or financing, or in the completion of development or construction activities; risks associated with financial leverage and the availability of capital; risks associated with the price of commodities and the inability of the Company to control commodity prices; risks associated with the regulatory environment within which the Company operates; risks associated with litigation including the availability of insurance; and risks posed by competition. These and other factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from the results expressed, implied or forecasted by the forward looking statements are discussed in more detail in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part IA of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.  
 
The Company does not intend to, and the Company disclaims any obligation to, update any forward looking statements, whether written or oral, or whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Unless otherwise noted, references in this registration statement to “JBI” the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us” means JBI, Inc., a Nevada corporation.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION
 
JBI, Inc. (the “Company” or “JBI”) was originally incorporated as 310 Holdings, Inc. (“310”) in the State of Nevada on April 20, 2006.  310 had no significant activity from inception through 2009.  In April 2009, John Bordynuik purchased 63% of the issued and outstanding shares of 310.  During 2009, the Company changed its name to JBI, Inc. and began operations of its main business operation, Plastic2Oil (“P2O”).  Plastic2Oil is a combination of proprietary technologies and processes developed by JBI which convert waste plastics and waste oil into fuel.  JBI currently, as of the date of this filing, operates three processors at its Niagara Falls, NY, facility (the “Niagara Falls Facility”).
 
On August 24, 2009, the Company acquired Javaco, Inc. (“Javaco”), a distributor of electronic components, including home theater and audio video products.  In July 2012, the Company closed Javaco and sold substantially all its inventory and fixed assets.  The operations of Javaco have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented (Note 16).
 
Going Concern
 
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP"), which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern which assumes the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has experienced negative cash flows from operations since inception, has a working capital deficiency of $909,945 and an accumulated deficit of $53,638,045 for the period ended June 30, 2013. The report of the Company’s auditor on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for December 31, 2012 contained cautionary wording related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  This wording was included in their opinion as a result of the assessment that was made by management’s based on their assessment of potential liquidity problems, working capital issues and negative cash flows from operations.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to operate in the normal course of business. To date, the Company has funded its activities almost exclusively from equity financings. 
 
The Company will continue to require substantial funds to continue the expansion of its P2O business to achieve significant commercial production, and to significantly increase sales and marketing efforts. Management’s plans in order to meet its operating cash flow requirements include financing activities such as private placements of its common and/ or preferred stock and issuances of debt and/ or convertible debt instruments.
 
While the Company believes that it will be successful in obtaining the necessary financing to fund its operations, meet regulatory requirements and achieve commercial production goals, there are no assurances that such additional funding will be achieved and that it will succeed in its future operations. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence. 
 
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Consolidation
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Plastic2Oil of NY#1, LLC, JBI (Canada) Inc., John Bordynuik, Inc., JBI CDE Inc., JBI Re One Inc., JBI Re#1 Inc., Plastic2Oil Marine Inc., Javaco, PakIt and Plastic2Oil Land Inc.  All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.  Amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements are expressed in US dollars. Javaco and PakIt have also been consolidated, however, as mentioned their operations are classified as discontinued operations (Note 16).

Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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 these estimates. Significant estimates include amounts for impairment of property, plant and equipment, share based compensation, asset retirement obligations, inventory obsolescence, accrued liabilities, valuation of the short term note receivable and accounts receivable exposures.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
 
Restricted Cash
 
Restricted cash relates to cash on deposit, which secures the Company’s letter of credit with a banking institution, related to a fuel sales bond.  
 
 
8

 
 
Cash Held in Attorney Trust
 
The amount held in trust represents retainer payments the Company has made to law firms which were being held on its behalf for the payment of future services. 
 
Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable represent unsecured obligations due from customers under terms requesting payments upon receipt of invoice up to thirty days, depending on the customer.  Accounts receivable are non-interest bearing and are stated at the amounts billed to the customer net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts.   Customer balances with invoices beyond agreed upon terms are considered delinquent. Payments of accounts receivable are applied to the specific invoices identified on the customer remittance, or if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid invoice. 
 
The allowance for uncollectible accounts reflects management’s best estimate of amounts that may not be collected based on an analysis of the age of receivables and the credit standing of individual customers.   The allowances for uncollectible accounts as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 were $27,810 and $57,991, respectively. 
 
Inventories
 
Inventories, which consist primarily of plastics, costs to process the plastic and processed fuel are stated at the lower of cost or market.  The Company uses an average costing method in determining cost.  Inventories are periodically reviewed for use and obsolescence, and adjusted as necessary. 
   
Property, Plant and Equipment
 
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the various classes of assets, and capital leased assets are given useful lives coinciding with the asset classification they are classified as.  These lives are as follows:
 
Leasehold improvements 
lesser of useful life or term of the lease
Machinery and office equipment  
3-15 years
Furniture and fixtures
7 years
Office and industrial buildings
25 years
 
Gains and losses on depreciable assets retired or sold are recognized in the statements of operations in the period of disposal. Repairs and maintenance expenditures are expensed as incurred and expenditures that increase the value or useful life of the asset are capitalized.
 
Construction in Process
 
The Company capitalizes customized equipment built to be used in the future day to day operations at cost. Once complete and available for use, the cost for accounting purposes is transferred to property, plant and equipment, where normal depreciation rates are applied.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews for impairment of long-lived assets on an asset by asset basis when events or circumstances change in the business or the use of the long-lived asset that indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. Impairment is recognized on properties held for use when the expected undiscounted cash flows for a property are less than its carrying amount at which time the property is written-down to fair value. Properties held for sale are recorded at the lower of the carrying amount or the expected sales price less costs to sell. The sale or disposal of a “component of an entity” is treated as discontinued operations. The operating properties sold by the Company typically meet the definition of a component of an entity and as such the revenues and expenses associated with sold properties are reclassified to discontinued operations for all periods presented (Note 16).
 
Asset Retirement Obligation

The fair value of the estimated asset retirement obligation is recognized in the consolidated balance sheets when identified and a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The asset retirement cost, equal to the estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation, is capitalized as part of the cost of the related long-lived asset. The asset retirement obligation is depreciated over the asset’s estimated useful life and is included in depreciation and accretion expense on the condensed consolidated statements of income. Increases in the asset retirement obligation resulting from the passage of time are recorded as accretion of asset retirement obligation in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Actual expenditures incurred are charged against the accumulated obligation.  As at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company recorded asset retirement obligations of $29,864 and $29,423, respectively.  These costs include disposal of plastic and other non-hazardous waste, site closing labor and testing and sampling of the site upon closure.  This liability is included in other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Environmental Contingencies

The Company records environmental liabilities at their undiscounted amounts on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as other current or long-term liabilities when environmental assessments indicate that remediation efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. These costs may be discounted to reflect the time value of money if the timing of the cash payments is fixed or reliably determinable and extends beyond a current period. Estimates of our liabilities are based on currently available facts, existing technology and presently enacted laws and regulations, taking into consideration the likely effects of other societal and economic factors, and include estimates of associated legal costs. These amounts also consider prior experience in remediating contaminated sites, other companies’ clean-up experience and data released by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or other organizations. The Company’s estimates are subject to revision in future periods based on actual costs or new circumstances. The Company capitalizes costs that benefit future periods and recognizes a current period charge in operation and maintenance expense when clean-up efforts do not benefit future periods.
 
The Company evaluates any amounts paid directly or reimbursed by government sponsored programs and potential recoveries or reimbursements of remediation costs from third parties including insurance coverage separately from the Company’s liability. Recovery is evaluated based on the creditworthiness or solvency of the third party, among other factors. When recovery is assured, the Company records and reports an asset separately from the associated liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. No amounts for recovery have been accrued to date.  
 
Deposits

Deposits represent payments made to vendors for fabrication of key pieces of property, plant and equipment that have been made in accordance with the Company’s agreements to purchase such equipment.  Payments are made to these vendors as progress is made on the fabrication of the equipment, with final payments made when the equipment is delivered.  Until the Company has possession of the equipment, all payments made to these vendors are classified as deposits on assets.  Deposits were $1,484,453 and $839,005 as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
 
Leases

The Company has entered into various leases for buildings and equipment. At the inception of a lease, the Company evaluates whether it is operating or capital in nature.  Operating leases are recorded as expense in the appropriate periods of the lease.  Capital leases are classified as property, plant and equipment and the related depreciation is recorded on the assets.  Also, the debt related to the capital lease is included in the Company’s short- and long-term debt obligations, in accordance with the lease agreement.

Lease inducements are recognized for periods of reduced rent or for larger than usual rent escalations over the term of the lease. The benefit of a rent free period and the cost of future rent escalations are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and collection is reasonably assured.  The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

P2O sales are recognized when the customers take possession of the fuel since at that stage the customer has completed all prior testing necessary for their acceptance of the fuel. At the time of possession they have arranged for transportation to pick it up and the sales price has either been set in their purchase contract or negotiated prior to the time of pick up through the issuance of a purchase order. The Company negotiates the pricing of the fuel based on the quality of the product and the type of fuel being sold (i.e. Naphtha, Fuel Oil No. 6 or Fuel Oil No. 2).
 
Shipping and Handling Costs
 
The Company’s shipping and handling costs were $86,499 and $26,553 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The Company’s shipping and handling costs were $73,142 and $22,627 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Shipping and handling is allocated between inventoriable costs and cost of goods sold for all periods presented, based on the proportion of both inventory and sales.
 
Advertising costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs approximated $5,708 and $2,840 for the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and $19,601 and $13,845 for the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2012, respectively.  These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
 
 
10

 
 
Research and Development
 
The Company is engaged in research and development activities. Research and development costs are charged as an operating expense of the Company as incurred. For the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company expensed $257,646 and $203,637, respectively, towards research and development costs. For the three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company expensed $147,699 and $108,487, respectively, towards research and development costs.  Components of the processors that are fabricated or purchased with research and development plans and then used on the processor in production are capitalized into the cost of the processor and depreciated over the remaining life of the processor.
 
Foreign Currency Translation
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 830. All monetary items have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. All non-monetary items have been translated using the historical exchange rates at the time of transactions. Amounts included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations have been translated using the average exchange rate for the periods. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred foreign exchange losses of $9,459 and $19,863.  For the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized foreign exchange (gains) losses of ($2,198) and $10,502.  These amounts are included as selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company utilizes the asset and liability method to measure and record deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the future income tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and are measured using enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
 
Loss Per Share
 
The financial statements include basic and diluted per share information. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially outstanding shares of common stock during each period. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share when their effect is anti-dilutive.  For the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, potentially dilutive common stock equivalents consisted of the Preferred Stock Series B, the Common Stock Warrants and the outstanding stock based compensation awards, which were not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share, as the impact would have been anti-dilutive.
 
Segment Reporting

The Company operates in two reportable segments. ASC 280-10, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information", establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in their consolidated financial statements. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Our operating segments include plastic to oil conversion (Plastic2Oil), which includes our fuel sales as well as sales of waste paper fiber and Data Recovery and Migration, our magnetic tape reading segment. Our chief operating decision maker is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.
 
Concentrations and Credit Risk
 
Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company’s policy is to place our cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions that are insured by the FDIC, however, account balances may at times exceed insured limits. The Company extends limited credit to its customers based upon their creditworthiness and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other pertinent information.  The Company also routinely makes an assessment of the collectibilty of the short term note receivable and determines its exposure for nonperformance based on the specific holder and other pertinent information.
 
 
11

 
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
Fair value is defined under FASB ASC Topic 820 as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or the most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on the levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value.  The levels are as follows:
 
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
 
Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or corroborated by observable market data or substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
   
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the value of the assets or liabilities
 
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, cash held in attorney trust, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and short term portion of capital leases approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these items. Per ASC Topic 820 framework these are considered Level 2 inputs where estimates are unobservable by market participants outside of the Company and must be estimated using assumptions developed by the Company. The short-term note receivable is carried at fair value and is valued using Level 2 inputs, see Note 13.
 
Reclassifications
 
To conform with the basis of presentation adopted in the current year, certain figures previously reported have been reclassified.
 
Specifically, during 2012, the Company identified certain amounts of employee payroll related to employees that were predominantly involved in research and development activities as defined under ASC 730-10-25. Accordingly, it was determined that the employee payroll expenses related to these individuals should be reclassified from selling, general and administrative expenses to research and development for all periods presented.  The resulting impact is a reclassification of $201,542 and $106,392 for the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2012. As this is a reclassification between two expense categories, there is no impact on the condensed consolidated balance sheet, net loss, accumulated deficit or cash flows for the all periods presented.  Additionally, the opening balances of additional paid in capital and accumulated deficit were overstated and understated by $16,193, respectively.  This amount has been reclassified into the correct accounts for the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012.  This reclassification had no impact on the condensed consolidated balance sheet, net loss or cash flows for the periods presented.
  
NOTE 3 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS AND RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

There are no recently adopted accounting pronouncements that impact the Company’s financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
The Company believes the above discussion addresses its most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of the financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

NOTE 6 – SHORT-TERM NOTE RECEIVABLE
 
Upon consummation of the sale of Pak-It, the Company entered into a long-term note receivable (the “Note”) with the buyer of Pak-It in the amount of $500,000.  The Note was recorded as of the date of closing at the fair value determined by discounting the face value of the Note using 7%, based on factors considered by the Company at the time of recording the Note.  Interest income is amortized into the value of the Note during the life of the Note and is recognized as interest income throughout the term of the Note, which is due on July 1, 2013.  Interest income recognized on the Note for the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $12,278 and $9,350, respectively.  Interest income recognized on the Note for the three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was $6,139 and $8,186, respectively.  
 
As of the date of this filing, the Note had not yet been repaid and the default provisions of the Note had been enacted by the Company.  Additionally, the Company has fully reserved for the value of this Note of $500,000, due to the assessment by the Company that it is more likely than not that the Company will be unable to collect the balance of this Note.  This amount, as it related to PakIt, a discontinued operation, was recorded as such in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.  The Company continues to work with the buyer of PakIt to negotiate a payment structure amicable to both companies.  The Note allows for default provisions for a payment equal to 2% of the total amount overdue.  Additionally, the Company has the right to increase the interest rate on the Note to the official prime rate, which is 3.25% as of the date of this filing.  The Company is assessing the options permitted to it under the terms of default and security contained within the Note.

During 2012, the Company entered into a letter of credit with one of its financial institutions to secure a performance bond required by a governmental agency for the sale of fuel.  This letter of credit is fully secured by restricted cash held by this institution and was not utilized at any point during the period ended June 30, 2013.  Restricted cash consists of $100,000 plus interest earned on the balance.
     
NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES
 
The Company calculates its income tax expense by estimating the annual effective tax rate and applying that rate to the year-to-date ordinary income (loss) at the end of the period.  The Company records a tax valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that it will not be able to recover the value of its deferred tax assets.  For both the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company calculated its estimated annualized effective tax rate at 0% and 0%, respectively, for both the United States and Canada.  The Company had no income tax expense on its $5,270,236 and $6,800,270 pre-tax loss from continuing operations and $500,000 and $83,103 loss from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The Company recognized no income tax expense based on its $2,555,716 and $4,028,390 pre-tax loss from continuing operations and $500,000 and $23,483 pre-tax loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
 
The Company recognizes the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not threshold, the amount recognized in the financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority. The Company recognizes interest accrued on uncertain tax positions as well as interest received from favorable tax settlements within interest expense. The Company recognizes penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits within selling, general and administrative expenses. As of June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no uncertain tax positions.
 
The Company does not anticipate any significant changes to the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits in the next twelve months. The years ending December 31, 2009 through December 31, 2012 are open tax years.

Contingencies
 
In August 2010, a former employee filed a complaint against the Company’s subsidiary alleging wrongful dismissal and seeking compensatory damages.  The Company denied the validity of the contract which was signed by the former employee as employee and president of the subsidiary. The Company entered into negotiations with the former employee to trade-off some of the benefits of the alleged employment agreement in return for repayment of debts to the Company incurred by the former employee while in the employment of the Company’s subsidiary.  The debt in the amount of $346,386 was written off.  Prior to December 31, 2011, the former employee settled the dispute with the Company and agreed to repay $250,813 to the Company.  The employee owns shares of the Company and will sell and use the proceeds to make the repayments.  The Company recognizes these receipts as recoveries when realized.  As of June 30, 2013, the Company has received $106,250 of repayments; including $Nil and $42,000 of repayments received during the six and three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  These recoveries of bad debt are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.
 
As previously reported, on July 28, 2011, certain of the Company’s stockholders filed a class action lawsuit against the Company and Messrs. Bordynuik and Baldwin on behalf of purchasers of its securities.  In an amended complaint filed on July 10, 2012, these stockholders sought to represent such purchasers during the period from August 28, 2009 through January 4, 2012. The original and amended complaints in that case, filed in federal court in Nevada, allege that the defendants made false or misleading statements, or both, and failed to disclose material adverse facts about the Company’s business, operations and prospects in press releases and filings made with the SEC. Specifically, the lawsuit alleges that the defendants made false or misleading statements or failed to disclose material information, or a combination thereof regarding: (1) that certain media credits (“Media Credits”) were substantially overvalued; (2) that the Company improperly accounted for acquisitions; (3) that, as such, the Company's financial results were not prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles; and (4) that the Company lacked adequate internal and financial controls.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, a lead plaintiff was appointed in the case and an amended complaint was filed. The defendants’ answer to the amended complaint was filed during the fourth quarter of 2012.  
 
On August 8, 2013, JBI, Inc., (the “Company”) entered a stipulation agreement (the “Stipulation Agreement”) in potential settlement of the previously reported class action lawsuit filed by certain stockholders of the Company against the Company and Messrs. Bordynuik and Baldwin (both former officers of the Company) on behalf of a settlement class consisting of purchasers of the Company’s common stock during the period from August 28, 2009 through January 4, 2012 (the “Proposed Class Period”).  Under the Stipulation Agreement, the Company would agree to issue shares of its common stock that will comprise a settlement fund.  The number of shares to be issued will be dependent on the price per share of the Company’s common stock during a period preceding the date of the Court’s entry of final judgment in the case (the “Judgment Date”).  If the price of the Company’s common stock is less than $0.50 per share based upon the average closing price for the 90 trading days preceding the Judgment Date, the Company would issue 3 million shares of its common stock. If the price of the Company’s common stock is between $0.50 and $0.70 per share, based upon the same 90-day average closing price, the Company would issue 2.5 million shares of its common stock.  If the price of the Company’s common stock is more than $0.70 per share based upon the same 90-day average closing price the Company will issue 1.75 million shares of its common stock.  The shares will not be distributed to class members in kind.  At any time after final approval by the Court, class counsel would have the option to sell all or any portion of such shares for the benefit of class members, subject to certain volume limitations.  Plaintiff’s counsel’s attorneys’ fees, subject to Court approval, would be paid out of the settlement fund.  The Company would also pay settlement-related costs up to a maximum of $200,000.  The plaintiffs and each of the class members who purchased the Company’s common stock during the Proposed Class Period and alleged they were damaged would be deemed to have fully released all claims against the Company and other defendants upon entry of judgment.
 
As previously reported, on January 4, 2012, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed a civil complaint in federal court in Massachusetts against the Company. The complaint alleges that the Company reported materially false and inaccurate financial information in its financial statements (which were later restated) for the third quarter of 2009 and the year end 2009 by overvaluing Media Credits on its balance sheet, in violation of, among other things, the antifraud, reporting, books and records, internal controls and periodic report certification provisions of the U.S. Securities Laws.  The Complaint named the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and current Chief of Technology, John Bordynuik, and its former Chief Financial Officer, Ronald Baldwin, Jr., as co-defendants. Among other relief requested, the complaint sought an order requiring the defendants to pay unspecified disgorgement and civil penalty amounts.  The SEC approved a settlement under which the Company and its former Chief Executive Officer and current Chief of Technology, John Bordynuik, would pay fines of $150,000 and $110,000, respectively, and consent to the imposition of injunctions against future violations.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, the court approved this settlement and the Company paid $150,000 which had previously been accrued for and was classified as cash held in attorney trust at December 31, 2012.  This case has been completely settled by the Company.

As previously reported, on March 16, 2012, a stockholder derivative suit was filed in the U.S. District Court in the State of Massachusetts, naming the Company as a nominal defendant and naming as defendants each member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company, including former directors and the Company’s current Chief of Technology, Mr. John Bordynuik.  The complaint alleges that the individual members of the Board breached their fiduciary duties to the Company in connection with the alleged improper accounting treatment of the Media Credits and public disclosures regarding the status of its Plastic2Oil, or P2O, process.  During the third and fourth quarters of 2012, the individual defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint arguing, among other things, that the plaintiff stockholder failed to allege sufficient facts demonstrating that presenting a demand  to the Company’s Board of Directors prior to filing suit would have been futile.  The plaintiff filed an opposition to this motion and the Company replied to that opposition.  On June 26, 2013, the Court issued an Order allowing the motion and dismissing the case without prejudice.

On April 25, 2013, plaintiffs ASPTO LLC, Plastic2Oil of Clearwater 1 LLC, and ES Resources LLC filed suit against the Company in the Circuit Court of Pinellas County, Florida, alleging breaches of certain contracts and seeking unspecified damages.  The Company thereafter removed the case to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, and filed a motion to dismiss certain counts of the Complaint.  That motion is pending; the Court has not ruled upon it.  The Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time.
 
At June 30, 2013, the Company is involved in litigation and claims in addition to the above mentioned legal claims, which arise from time to time in the normal course of business.  In the opinion of management, based upon the information and facts known to them, any liability that may arise from such contingencies would not have a material adverse effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company.
 
NOTE 11 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock and Additional Paid in Capital
 
Between December 30, 2011 and January 6, 2012, JBI, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into separate Subscription Agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with 13 investors (the “Purchasers”) in connection with a private placement of units consisting of one share of common stock and a warrant (the “Warrants”) to purchase shares of common stock for $2.00.  In addition to the units sold, the Purchasers were provided a price protection clause in which all of the Purchasers would be made whole should the Company consummate another private placement with an offering price of less than $1.00 per share (the “Make Whole Provision”).  This provision was valid for a total offering price of up to $5,000,000, at which time the Purchasers would be made whole and then the Make Whole Provision would be terminated.  On January 6, 2012, the Company assessed the likelihood of enacting the Make Whole Provision contained in the Purchase Agreements.  At that time, the Company had begun to discuss options for another private offering to be consummated near the end of the first quarter of 2012.  The Company determined that it would perform an offering similar to the prior offering in which the Company would offer a share of Common Stock and a Warrant.  Based on the expected value of the Warrants contemplated in this proposed new financing transaction, the Company determined that it was certain that it would trigger this Make Whole Provision and be required to perform under this Make Whole Provision.  As such, a liability was recorded for the fair value of the Equity Derivative Liability in the amount of $1,214,455, based on the 100% probability of this Make Whole Provision being enacted at the market price of the Company’s common stock as of January 6, 2012.  At March 31, 2012, the Company again assessed the likelihood of enacting the Make Whole Provision.  Based on the discussions with a number of investors, the Company determined that again, it was a certainty that this clause would be triggered based on the discussions of a possible private placement under the considerations outlined above.  As such, the Company remeasured the Equity Derivative Liability at the fair value of $1,000,643 based on the market price of the Company’s common stock as of March 31, 2012, which resulted in a gain of $213,812. On May 15, 2012, the Company consummated a Private Placement which offered shares of common stock at a price of $0.80 per share.  As such, this Make Whole Provision was affected, resulting in the Company issuing an additional 880,250 shares of the Company’s common stock to these investors.  These shares were issued at a market price of $1.13/ share.  This resulted in gains recorded on the Make Whole Provision of $305,798 and $91,986, recorded during the six and three months ended June 30, 2012.
 
During the first quarter of 2013, the Company issued 34,247 shares of common stock for services rendered that had previously been subscribed.  These shares were valued at $0.73 per share, on the date of approval by the Board of Directors.

During the second quarter of 2013, the Company issued 51,168 shares of common stock for services rendered that had previously been subscribed.  These shares were valued at $0.70 per share, on the date of approval by the Board of Directors.

During the second quarter of 2013, the Company issued 11,911 shares of common stock for services rendered.  These shares were valued at $0.46 per share, on the date of approval by the Board of Directors.
 
Warrants
 
Pursuant to a private placement that took place between December 30, 2011 and January 6, 2012, the Company issued 1,997,500 warrants to purchase shares of common stock for $2.00 to the subscribers of the December 2011/ January 2012 private placements.  The warrants have an eighteen month term from the date of issuance, such issuance dates ranged from January 6, 2012 through August 29, 2012.  As of June 30, 2013, all 1,997,500 warrants were still outstanding.  On July 6, 2013 1,741,500 warrants expired and their value of $1,776,330 will be reclassified as additional paid in capital.  As of the date of their issuance, the warrants were determined to have a fair value of $1.02.  The Company determined this valuation through use of a binomial pricing model, the assumptions in valuing these Warrants consisted of:
 
Volatility – 163.67%, based on the Company’s Historical Stock Price
Probability of Occurrence – 100%, based on the expectation and discussions the Company held with additional investors during and after the consummation of this private placement
Risk Free Rate – 2.70%, based on the long-term US Treasury rate
 
Preferred Stock

Series A Preferred Stock

The Company’s founder and current Chief of Technology holds all 1,000,000 outstanding shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock.  These shares have no economic participation rights, however, they carry super voting rights in which each share of Preferred Stock has 100:1 times the voting rights of each share of common stock.
 
Series B Preferred Stock
 
The Series B Preferred Stock was created pursuant to the Certificate of Designation setting forth the powers, designations, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada on December 24, 2012 (the “Series B Designation”).  Pursuant to the Series B Designation, the Series B Preferred Stock are convertible at the election of the holder into shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company, at the rate of seven (7) shares of Common Stock for each share of Series B Preferred Stock, subject to proportional adjustment for stock splits, combinations, consolidations, stock dividends, stock distributions, recapitalizations, reorganizations, reclassifications and other similar events. Upon any conversion, a holder of shares of Series B Preferred Stock must convert all shares of Series B Preferred Stock then held by such holder. All shares of Series B Preferred Stock that remain outstanding on June 30, 2014 shall be automatically converted into Common Stock.
 
Pursuant to the Series B Designation, in the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of assets of the Company available for distribution to stockholders of the Company, prior and in preference to any distribution to the holders of any other capital stock of the Company, an amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the original purchase price for such shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock will vote together with the Common Stock and not as a separate class, except as otherwise required by law.  Each share of Series B Preferred Stock will have a number of votes equal to the number of shares of Common Stock then issuable upon conversion of such shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The approval of the holders of a majority of the Series B Preferred Stock will be required to amend the Certificate of Designation or to alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock in a manner that adversely affects such shares.
 
 
16

 
 
The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock; provided, however, in the event the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) declares and pays a dividend in respect of any Common Stock, then the Board shall declare and pay to the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock in an amount per share of Series B Preferred Stock equal to the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series B Preferred Stock is convertible on the record date established by the Board or under applicable law for such dividend multiplied by the per share amount declared and paid in respect of each share of Common Stock.
 
The Series B Preferred Stock was valued at the subscribed amount of $3.50 per share of Series B Preferred Stock, or $0.50 per share of the underlying common stock, less issue costs.  A total of 2,300,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock was issued. The beneficial conversion feature was valued using the number of common shares available upon conversion of all shares of Series B Preferred Stock and the differential between the closing market price of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of the execution of the subscription agreements and the exercise price of the conversion option, the number of shares and market prices are as follows:

The beneficial conversion feature is then amortized into accumulated paid in capital as a deemed dividend, since the conversion option may be exercised at any time, the beneficial conversion feature will be amortized over eighteen months, which is the term of the conversion option. During the period ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized a deemed dividend of $1,681,684 related to the amortization of the beneficial conversion feature.
 
The Company incurred stock issuance costs in relation to the Series B Preferred Stock in the amounts of $29,361 as of December 31, 2012 and an additional $39,154 during the period ending June 30, 2013.

NOTE 13 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
 
The following table summarizes the valuation of the Company’s financial instruments by the following three categories as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:
 
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
 
Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or corroborated by observable market data or substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities
 
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the value of the assets or liabilities

The Company has elected to use the income approach to value the short term note receivable, using observable Level 2 market expectations at the measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount assuming that participants are motivated, but not compelled, to transact.  Level 2 inputs for the valuations are limited to quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (specifically Prime interest rates). Mid-market pricing is used as a practical expedient for fair value measurements. Fair value measurement of the asset must reflect the nonperformance risk of the counterparty. Therefore, the impact of the counterparty’s creditworthiness, including the current default on the Note, has also been factored into the fair value measurement and has resulted in the Company completely reserving for the full value of the $500,000 note receivable and recording the related charge as discontinued operations for the six and three months ejnded June 30, 2013.  The counterparty is expected to perform under the contractual terms of the note receivable.  Additionally, during the six and three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized an increase in the carrying value of its short term note receivable of approximately $12,278 and $6,139, respectively of interest income related to this note, which has been classified as net interest income in the statement of operations.
 
As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company has no non-financial assets or liabilities that are measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, and its other financial assets or liabilities generally consist of cash and cash equivalents, cash held in attorney’s trust, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, mortgage payable and capital leases.  The estimated fair values of cash and cash equivalents is determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The fair value of the other financial assets and liabilities is based on the value that would be received or paid in an orderly transaction between market participants and approximates the carrying value due to their nature and short duration.
 
NOTE 14 – SEGMENTED REPORTING
 
The Company has two operating segments, Plastic2Oil and Data Recovery & Migration. These operating segments were determined based on the nature of the products and services offered. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer has been identified as the chief operating decision maker, and directs the allocation of resources to operating segments based on the profitability and cash flows of each respective segment.
 
The Company evaluates performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is net income. The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those described in “Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” Intersegment sales are accounted for at fair value as if sales were to third parties. The following tables show the operations of the Company’s reportable segments:

NOTE 16 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

During the period ended June 30, 2013, the Company made an assessment of the collectability of the note receivable from the buyer of PakIt.  It was determined that due to the lack of a payment within forty days of the due date that collectability was not assured and the Company has reserved for the full amount of the note receivable, $500,000.
 
During the second quarter of 2012, the Company determined that the operations of Javaco no longer coincided with the strategy of the Company and that it would close down Javaco’s operations.  In July 2012, the Company shut down the Javaco operations, including the termination of the five employees of Javaco, the liquidation of the inventory and fixed assets and the termination of the lease for the building.  
 
As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, no assets related to Javaco remained.
 
There are no operations of Javaco included in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013.  The results of operations from Javaco for the six and three months ended June 30, 2012 have been classified as discontinued operations and are as follows:

NOTE 17 – RISK MANAGEMENT

Concentration of Credit Risk and Economic Dependence
 
The Company maintains cash balances, at times, with financial institutions in excess of amounts insured by the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation and the U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Management monitors the soundness of these institutions and has not experienced any collection losses with these financial institutions.  The Company extends limited credit to its customers based upon their creditworthiness and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends and other pertinent information.  The Company also routinely makes an assessment of the collectibilty of the short term note receivable and determines its exposure for nonperformance based on the specific holder and other pertinent information.
 
During the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, 92.4% and 70.8% of total net sales were generated from 4 and 3 customers, respectively.  During the three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, 96.8% and 68.9% of total net sales were generated from 4 and 3 customers, respectively. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, 3 customers accounted for 75.2% and 56.3% of accounts receivable, respectively.
 
For the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had approximately 33.4% and 7.2%, respectively of its purchases from 2 vendors.  For the three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had approximately 33.6% and 8.5%, respectively of its purchases from 3 vendors.  As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, these three vendors accounted for 41.1% and 23.5% of accounts payable, respectively.
 
NOTE 18 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
The Company has evaluated subsequent events occurring after the balance sheet date and has identified the following:
 
On July 6, 2013, 1,741,500 warrants issued in conjunction with the private placement in December 2011/ January 2012 expired and $1,776,330 was reclassified from the value of the outstanding warrants to additional paid in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
 
On July 11, 2013, the Board of Directors of JBI, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a  reduction in the labor force of approximately 15 employees, constituting approximately 25% of the Company’s workforce, whose employment was terminated as part of an overall plan to reduce the Company’s cost structure.  The Company estimated  it will incur approximately $40,000 in total restructuring expenses, all of which are expected to result in future cash expenditures. The Company expects to recognize these restructuring charges of approximately $40,000 in the quarter ending September 30, 2013. These costs consist of severance and other employee-related costs.
 
On July 29, 2013, holders of 74,400 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock exercised their conversion rights under the Certificate of Designations and converted the aforementioned shares into 520,800 shares of the Company’s Common Stock.  All 520,800 of these shares were issued subsequent to June 30, 2013.
 
On August 8, 2013, JBI, Inc., (the “Company”) entered a stipulation agreement (the “Stipulation Agreement”) in potential settlement of the previously reported class action lawsuit filed by certain stockholders of the Company against the Company and Messrs. Bordynuik and Baldwin (both former officers of the Company) on behalf of a settlement class consisting of purchasers of the Company’s common stock during the period from August 28, 2009 through January 4, 2012 (the “Proposed Class Period”).  Under the Stipulation Agreement, the Company would agree to issue shares of its common stock that will comprise a settlement fund.  The number of shares to be issued will be dependent on the price per share of the Company’s common stock during a period preceding the date of the Court’s entry of final judgment in the case (the “Judgment Date”).  If the price of the Company’s common stock is less than $0.50 per share based upon the average closing price for the 90 trading days preceding the Judgment Date, the Company would issue 3 million shares of its common stock. If the price of the Company’s common stock is between $0.50 and $0.70 per share, based upon the same 90-day average closing price, the Company would issue 2.5 million shares of its common stock.  If the price of the Company’s common stock is more than $0.70 per share based upon the same 90-day average closing price the Company will issue 1.75 million shares of its common stock.  The shares will not be distributed to class members in kind.  At any time after final approval by the Court, class counsel would have the option to sell all or any portion of such shares for the benefit of class members, subject to certain volume limitations.  Plaintiff’s counsel’s attorneys’ fees, subject to Court approval, would be paid out of the settlement fund.  The Company would also pay settlement-related costs up to a maximum of $200,000.  The plaintiffs and each of the class members who purchased the Company’s common stock during the Proposed Class Period and alleged they were damaged would be deemed to have fully released all claims against the Company and other defendants upon entry of judgment.  It is contemplated that the agreement will be submitted to the Court and that class counsel will apply for entry of an order requesting the preliminary approval of the settlement, including the mailing of a settlement notice that will include, among other things, the general terms of the settlement, proposed plan of allocation, and terms of plaintiff’s counsel’s fee application.  It is further contemplated that a hearing will be requested at which the Court will be asked to finally approve the settlement of the litigation and pursuant to entry of judgment.  The Company cannot predict the outcome of the class action litigation at this time.  Any actual settlement is subject to risks and uncertainties concerning, among other things, objections from class members to the terms of the settlement and failure of the Court to approve the settlement.
 
On August 9, 2013, the previously reported stockholder derivative suit which was dismissed without prejudice on June 26, 2013 was re-filed in the U.S. District Court in the State of Massachusetts.  Currently, the Company has not been able to assess the potential liability, if any, related to this matter, however, the Company plans to vigorously defend this matter.
 
On August 14, 2013, Richard Heddle and Philip Bradley were appointed to the Board of Directors of the Company.  Mr. Heddle will serve as Chairman of the Board.
On August 14, 2013, Tony Bogolin informed the Board of Directors the Company of his resignation from his positions as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and from the Board, effective the close of business August 14, 2013.  In connection with Mr. Bogolin’s resignation, Mr. Bogolin and the Company executed a separation agreement (the "Bogolin Separation Agreement") on August 14, 2013. Pursuant to the terms of the Bogolin Separation Agreement, Mr. Bogolin will receive payment of the equivalent of four and one half months of his base salary and unused accrued vacation ($105,966) payable in three equal monthly payments and immediate accelerated vesting of options to purchase 370,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The exercise period of the vested options will be extended from ninety (90) days to seven years after execution of the Bogolin Separation Agreement.  In addition, Mr. Bogolin will receive continued coverage under the Company's benefit plans or equivalent coverage through December 31, 2013. 

Richard Heddle will serve in the capacity as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer for the foreseeable future.   

On August 14, 2013, Matthew Ingham informed the Board of Directors the Company of his resignation from his positions as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and from the Board, effective the close of business August 14, 2013.  In connection with Mr. Ingham’s resignation, Mr. Ingham and the Company executed a separation agreement (the "Ingham Separation Agreement") on August 14, 2013. Pursuant to the terms of the Ingham Separation Agreement, Mr. Ingham will receive payment of the equivalent of four and one half months of his base salary and unused accrued vacation ($74,176) payable in three equal monthly payments and immediate accelerated vesting of options to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The exercise period of the vested options will be extended from ninety (90) days to seven years after execution of the Ingham Separation Agreement.  In addition, Mr. Ingham will receive continued coverage under the Company's benefit plans or equivalent coverage through December 31, 2013.  
 
The Board of Directors has appointed Nicholas Terranova, Corporate Controller, as the interim Chief Financial Officer.
 
On August 14, 2013, the Company entered into a binding term sheet agreement with Richard Heddle to secure an investment in the Company of $3 million.  The investment will consist of a proposed Senior Secured Debt Payment in Kind Note (“Senior Debt”) secured by the property, plant and equipment and intellectual property of the Company, bears an interest rate of 12.5%.  The Senior Debt has a term of five years and has detachable warrants valued at 120% of the closing price of the stock on the date prior to funding.

Item 2.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations
 
The following management’s discussion and analysis (the “MD&A”) of the results of financial condition and operations contains “forward looking statements” within the meaning of applicable securities laws.  Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to our beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, goals and expectations, including expectations about our future financial or operating performance and our projects, capital expenditures, capital needs, government regulation of the industry, environmental risks, limitations of insurance coverage, and the timing and possible outcome of regulatory matters, including the granting of patents and permits.  Words such as “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “attempt”, “may”, “will”, “plan”, “believe”, “seek”, “estimate”, and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward looking information. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve assumptions, risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict.
 
These statements are based on and were developed using a number of factors and assumptions including, but not limited to: stability in the U.S. and other foreign economies; stability in the availability and pricing of raw materials, energy and supplies; stability in the competitive environment; our continued ability to access cost effective capital when needed; and no unexpected or unforeseen events occurring that would materially alter our current plans.   All of these assumptions have been derived from statements currently available to us including information obtained by us from third party sources. Although management believes that these assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions may prove to be incorrect in whole or in part. As a result of these and other factors, actual results may differ materially from those expressed, implied or forecasted in such forward looking statements, which reflect our expectations only as of the date hereof.
 
Factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from the results expressed, implied or forecasted by the forward looking statements include risks associated with general business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties; risks associated with changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; risks associated with failure of plant, equipment or processes to operate as anticipated; risks associated with accidents or labor disputes; risks associated with delays in obtaining governmental approvals or financing, or in the completion of development or construction activities; risks associated with financial leverage and the availability of capital; risks associated with the price of commodities and our inability to control commodity prices; risks associated with the regulatory environment within which we operate; risks associated with litigation including the availability of insurance; and risks posed by competition. These and other factors that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from the results expressed, implied or forecasted by the forward looking statements are discussed in more detail in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part IA of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.
 
We do not intend to, and the Company disclaims any obligation to, update any forward looking statements, whether written or oral, or whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
 
For financial reporting purposes, we operate two business segments, which are our fuel production business using our P2O solution, which also includes revenue from waste paper fiber, and our Data Recovery & Migration Business.  Previously, we operated an electronic and video equipment distribution business, conducted by Javaco, Inc. (“Javaco”).  As of June 30, 2013, no assets related to Javaco remained on the books.  For the six and three month periods ending June 30, 2012, the operations of Javaco have been classified as discontinued.    
 
Our P2O business has begun the transition from research and development to a commercial production business. We anticipate that this segment will continue to grow and ultimately will account for substantially all of our revenues for the remainder of 2013 and periods thereafter.   Historically, however, our revenues have been derived primarily from our other segments and products, including those noted above as discontinued operations.
 
 
22

 
 
Plastic2Oil Business
 
Our P2O solution is a proprietary process that converts waste plastic and heat transfer fluids into fuel through a series of chemical reactions.  We developed this process in 2009 and began limited commercial production in 2010 following our receipt of a consent order from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (“NYSDEC”) allowing us to commercially operate our first large-scale P2O processor located at our Niagara Falls, New York facility.  Currently, as of the filing of this report, we have three operational P2O processors, all of which are located at our Niagara Falls, NY plant.  Each of these processors are capable of producing naphtha, Fuel Oil No. 2 and Fuel Oil No. 6, which are fuels produced to the specifications published by ASTM International, the organization that establishes the international technical standards for fuel products.  Our process also produces two by-products, an off-gas similar to natural gas and a petcoke carbon residue.  The off-gas is used in our process to fuel the burners when the processors are in steady operating state and the petcoke carbon residue is disposed of once removed from the processors.  We currently sell our fuel product to fuel wholesalers and directly to commercial and industrial end-users.
 
Our P2O process accepts certain mixed, unwashed waste plastics. Although many sources of plastic waste are available, we concentrate our feedstock procurement efforts on sources primarily including post-commercial and industrial waste plastic.  Generally, this waste stream offers a more constant supply of the same waste streams, requiring less ongoing testing of the plastics and more consistent deliveries of feedstock.
 
As we move from research and development to commercial production, we plan to grow from both expansion of current production capabilities and through expansion of new locations and processors.  In the future, we do not anticipate providing updates at a processor by processor level. However, in an effort to give an update, the following is the current status of our Niagara Falls facility and processors as of the date of this filing:
 
Niagara Falls Plastic2Oil Facility – During the second quarter, we made significant upgrades and enhancements to our facility infrastructure, in order to enable us to simultaneously run three processors at the Niagara Falls site.  A new off-gas compression system was added to allow for the storage and use of the off-gas from the processors at all times and not just when the processors are operating in steady state.  This upgrade required the shutdown of all processors in order to complete the new piping that was needed to fuel the burners on all three processors.  We also added a 17,000 gallon off-gas storage tank to store this volume and reconfigured the piping of the facility to connect all of our processors to this system.  Additionally, we added a 60 ton chiller and a 10,000 gallon water tank to allow for the cooling of all three processors with significantly more efficiency and speed than in the past. We also purchased and piped into the processors, two high capacity centrifuges, which are used to pre-process the heat transfer fluid prior to feeding into the machine.  During the quarter, we reconfigured the piping for Processors #1 and #2 to accommodate the significant increase in heat transfer fluid that will be introduced to the process.    
 
Processor #1 – This is our first processor that was built and provided key research and development data.  The new layout of Processor #1 has resulted in a lower feedrate than our other processors and ultimately, significantly less fuel output than anticipated from this processor.  As a result of the low output, we are currently using this processor primarily for the pre-heating of heat transfer fluid to be pumped into Processors #2 and #3 for processing into fuels.  This process will allow for more efficient processing and in turn will allow for higher feedrates in Processors #2 and #3 than otherwise would be possible.  Based on our process and financial analyses, we anticipate that this slightly modified use of Processor #1 will allow for greater production from both Processor #2 and #3 going forward.  As of the date of this filing, all of the required piping has been completed to allow for this processing and no additional components are required for this change.

Processor #2 – The second processor operated sporadically throughout the second quarter, due largely to our primary focus being on completing the assembly and start-up of our third processor.  This required the redeployment of much of our plant operations staff in assisting in the construction of Processor #3, due to their specific knowledge and expertise.  Additionally, as discussed above, with the key upgrades to the Niagara Falls facility infrastructure, the second processor was shut down for significant periods of time during the quarter in order to reconfigure the facility layout, change and upgrade both the facility support systems and the piping.
 
Processor #3 – On June 13, 2013, we completed the assembly of our third P2O processor and began start-up testing.  The overall system design, as well as the individual component designs behind the third processor have undergone significant upgrades from the previous generation processors.  One of the most significant of these changes is the addition of a real-time residue removal process that we anticipate will significantly increase processor uptime, which we measure by the amount of time the processor is at steady state, with full capacity, producing fuel. As of the end of the quarter, we were in the process of performing start up testing, including the initial feeding of plastic, fuel production and overall process debugging, which is designed to address any initial problems and any parts that may potentially fail under the full heat of the process and feedstock loads.  There was no meaningful production by this processor during the quarter, as the testing discussed above was not completed until early in July.
 
Other –The kilns for the fourth and fifth processors have been completed, tested and prepared for shipment.  In addition, the towers for these two processors are nearing completion, as well, with certain internal components remaining to be installed.  The production data we are gathering on processor #3 is critical to decisions to be made regarding timing of assembly and implementation of these two additional processors.  As previously discussed, we have an agreement with RockTenn Company to place these two processors at their location in Jacksonville, Florida.
 
Routinely, our fuel buyers have communicated that they are very pleased with the quality of all of our fuel products.  Our fuel is sold without the need for additives or further refining, directly from our processors to our customers.  We remain satisfied with our processors’ ability to make a range of fuels, which allows us to take advantage of changing market conditions.  We believe we have enough customer demand for our current fuel production levels and, in fact, we continue to receive inquiries from prospective customers that we believe will enable us to continue to keep up with our anticipated increase in production.
 
Data Recovery & Migration Business
 
In 2009 the Company purchased the Data Recovery & Migration Assets (“Data Assets”) from John Bordynuik, Inc., thereby providing the Company with the ability to operate what was once John Bordynuik, Inc.’s data restoration and recovery business. This was a business originally developed by our founder, John Bordynuik in 2006.
 
The Data Recovery & Migration Business is not as capital intensive as the other businesses of JBI, but is time consuming with regards to the allocation of the time of John Bordynuik. Revenues for this segment will vary based on the availability of Mr. Bordynuik to dedicate portions of his time to reading and interpreting the data from our customers’ media.

Revenue
 
Revenue is primarily derived from our P2O business through the sale of our fuels and processed waste paper fiber.  Additionally, from time to time, we are able to supplement this revenue with revenue from our Data Business through reading and interpreting magnetic tape media, dependent on the time constraints of John Bordynuik.  The following table shows a breakdown of our revenues from these sources.

Our fuel revenue comprised approximately 61% of our total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to approximately 54% for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  Fuel sales are based on either a set pricing structure with our customers or the prevailing market rate for the specific type of fuel being sold.  Our fuels are sold under both long term sale contracts with specified pricing or through the issuance of purchase orders by our customers.  Generally, we are able to obtain a higher price per gallon for our Fuel Oil No. 2 as compared to Fuel Oil No. 6, and a significantly lower price for our Naphtha.  The decrease in fuel revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012 is due to the following key factors:
 
Machine downtime due to the upgrade of the gas compression and chillers added to the facility, which required the shutdown of all systems while construction was being completed;
Focused effort by all facility staff on the completion of the third processor, including our plant operations staff who were focused on the construction of key components of the processor;

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we completed reconfiguring the programming of the processors to primarily produce Fuel Oil No. 2, as opposed to Fuel Oil No. 6, as there is a significantly higher price per gallon that we are able to obtain from this product.  We expect that this will continue in the future as we focus our processors on making the most profitable fuels.  In addition, although Naphtha will always be a fuel made through the conversion process, we are working to minimize the relative production of Naphtha, as its sale price per gallon is significantly lower than that of our other fuels.
 
Revenues from the Data Business were driven by the completion of both open and new purchase orders.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we were able to complete certain open orders as well as certain new purchase orders.

Cost of Goods Sold
 
Our costs of goods sold consist of feedstock procurement costs, overhead incurred at both our recycling facility in Thorold, Ontario and our Niagara Falls, NY facility as well as the freight associated with the shipments of our plastics and fuels.  The costs incurred at our recycling facility are directly proportional to the amount of plastic that is processed at this facility as well as the costs incurred to process waste paper fiber.   Our feedstock procurement strategy is geared towards obtaining significant amounts of high quality feedstock at the lowest pricing available.  The following table provides a breakdown of the costs of goods sold:

Fuel cost of goods sold increased 5.8% in the six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012 while total fuel gallons sold decreased 10.0%.  The increase in cost of goods sold and cost per gallon was due to the following factors:
Increased costs to procure optimal feedstock for the processors.  We have identified a number of significant sources of optimal feedstock which can be delivered directly to our Niagara Falls plant, without the need for pre-processing at our recycling center.  During the quarter, we processed a significant amount of this feedstock, which is at a higher cost than that which requires pre-processing.
Increased freight costs to receive feedstock.  Much of the optimal feedstock discussed above came from suppliers that are not in close proximity to our Niagara Falls plant.  As a result of this, we incurred significantly higher transportation costs.

For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we recorded a total gross profit of $25,448 and $101,704, respectively.
 
The gross profit related to our fuel sales for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was negatively impacted by our decision to secure optimal feedstock, albeit at higher pricing, in addition to increased costs to transport the feedstock to our Niagara Falls facility, as compared to the same period of 2012.
 
Our gross profit of $35,939 related to waste paper fiber was mainly driven by the commodities markets for the product.  We are generally able to procure waste paper fiber at low costs and then bale the raw materials for sales to local paper mills.  Additionally, we use the waste paper fiber markets to gain access to other feedstock waste streams. 
 
 
29

 
 
The gross profit of $31,881 in the Data Business was mainly due to the low operating costs associated with this business segment.
 
Operating Expenses
 
We incurred operating expenses of $5,308,715 during the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to $7,301,304 for the period ended June 30, 2012.  This is a decrease in the current period, mainly driven by a decrease in legal and accounting fees, the recovery of $700,000 related to insurance reimbursement of prior legal expenses and stock compensation expense, as there were a significant number of stock options that vested in the prior year that did not recur in the current year.  This was partially offset by increases in payroll as the Company continued to execute on the construction of the third processor, and insurance costs, which are related to the Company’s expansion and need for additional coverage.  A breakdown of the components of operating expenses for the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

Gain on Fair Value Measurement of Equity Derivative Liability
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2012 we recorded a gain of $305,798 on the fair value measurement of the price protection clause contained in the Private Placement that occurred in January 2012.   This gain was based on the difference between the closing price of our common stock on the valuation date (January 6, 2012) when we closed the private placement and the closing price of our common stock when the price protection clause was triggered (June 7, 2012) and subsequently paid to the requisite investors.  There was no such clause in any future private placement and thus, no similar amount in the six months ended June 30, 2013.
 
Income Tax Expenses
 
For the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we had no federal taxable income due to net losses and have recorded a deferred tax asset and a valuation allowance to the extent that those assets are attributable to net operating losses. We recognized the valuation allowance because we are unsure as to the ability to use these assets in the near future due to continued operating losses.  
 
For the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we incurred $Nil current income tax and future income tax expenses from continuing operations.
 
Net Loss
 
We incurred a net loss of $5,770,236 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to a net loss of $6,883,373 in the six months ended June 30, 2012.  These losses consisted of losses from continuing operations of $5,270,236 and $6,800,270 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and losses from discontinued operations of $500,000 and $83,103 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The increase in net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was driven by the impairment recorded on the note receivable from the sale of PakIt when management determine that collectability was not reasonably ensured with regards to the balance.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2013, we recorded a negative gross profit of 10,964 as compared to a gross profit of 53,091 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.
 
The gross profit related to our fuel sales for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was negatively impacted by our decision to secure optimal feedstock, albeit at higher pricing, in addition to increased costs to transport the feedstock to our Niagara Falls facility, as compared to the same period of 2012.
 
Our gross profit of $6,583 related to waste paper fiber was mainly driven by the commodities markets for the product.  The decrease in gross profit as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2012 is mainly due to the focus on processing and stockpiling feedstock for our processors as opposed to collecting and baling cardboard.  We are generally able to procure waste paper fiber at low costs and then bale the raw materials for sales to local paper mills.  Additionally, we use the waste paper fiber markets to gain access to other feedstock waste streams.

The gross profit of $25,596 in the Data Business was mainly due to the low operating costs associated with this business segment.
 
Operating Expenses
 
We incurred operating expenses of $ 2,554,071 during the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to $4,230,616 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.  This is a decrease in the current period, mainly driven by a decrease in accounting and legal fees, the recovery of $700,000 of insurance reimbursements related to previous legal costs and a reduction in stock compensation expense.  These decreases were partially offset by increases in payroll as we continue to execute on the construction of the third processor, and insurance costs, which are related to the Company’s expansion and need for additional coverage.  A breakdown of the components of operating expenses for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

Interest Expenses
 
For the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we had net interest income of $1,833 and 2,967, respectively, mainly from the recognition of interest on the note receivable from the sale of PakIt offset by interest payments on the mortgage on our facility in Canada as well as interest payments on our capital leases.

Gain on Fair Value Measurement of Equity Derivative Liability
 
For the quarter ended June 30, 2012 we recorded a gain of $91,986 on the fair value measurement of the price protection clause contained in the Private Placement that occurred in January 2012.   This gain was based on the difference between the closing price of our common stock on the valuation date (January 6, 2012) when we closed the private placement and the closing price of our common stock when the price protection clause was triggered (June 7, 2012) and subsequently paid to the requisite investors.  There was no such clause in any future private placement and thus, no similar amount in the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
 
Income Tax Expenses
 
For the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we had no federal taxable income due to net losses and have recorded a deferred tax asset and a valuation allowance to the extent that those assets are attributable to net operating losses. We recognized the valuation allowance because we are unsure as to the ability to use these assets in the near future due to continued operating losses.  
 
For the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we incurred $Nil current income tax and future income tax expenses from continuing operations.
 
Net Loss
 
We incurred a net loss of $3,055,716 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 compared to a net loss of $4,051,873 in the quarter ended June 30, 2012.  These losses consisted of losses from continuing operations of $2,555,716 and $4,028,390 for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and losses from discontinued operations of $500,000 and $23,483 for the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The increase in net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was driven by the impairment recorded on the note receivable from the sale of PakIt when management determine that collectability was not reasonably ensured with regards to the balance.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of June 30, 2013, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,078,073 on hand.  The Company does not currently have a formal cash management policy in place.

We do not generate sufficient cash to fund our operations and we have limited capital resources. To fund operations during our development, we have primarily relied on net proceeds from the sale of equity securities in private placement transactions. If we fail to raise additional capital as and when needed, then we may be forced to severely curtail or cease operations.  There can be no assurance that financing will be available on favorable terms or at all. If we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities will result in dilution to existing stockholders.
 
Our limited capital resources and recurring losses from operations raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and may adversely affect the ability to raise additional capital. The audit report prepared by our independent registered public accounting firm relating to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 includes an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
In the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we had significant charges included in the reported Net Loss that had no effect on cash flows.  In both periods, these charges included depreciation of property, plant and equipment, allowances for uncollectible amounts, and stock based compensation and stock issued for services.  In addition, in the prior period ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an adjustment for the mark-to-market adjustment of the Company’s derivative equity liability related to the price protection clause issued to investors in the Company’s December 2011/ January 2012 private offering.  There were no such clauses in recent placements and therefore, no corresponding amounts arose in the six or three month periods ended June 30, 2013.  Additionally, as we have continued to cut our costs, subsequent to June 30, 2013, we reduced our workforce by approximately 25%.
 
Investing activities include the Company’s cash investment in property, plant and equipment which amounted to $2,109,112 in the six months ended June 30, 2013, as compared to $2,737,638 in the six months ended June 30, 2012.  As we continue to grow and expand the number of processors, potential P2O plant locations and make any necessary modifications to the processors, buildings housing the processors and other enhancements, we expect to continue to make significant investment in property, plant and equipment in future periods.
 
Financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2013 represented the cash received upon the issuance of Series B Preferred Stock during the period as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012, cash from financing activities represented cash received from stock issuances and stock subscription advances as well as short term loans, offset by repayments of stock subscription advances.  We expect to rely upon proceeds from future private placements of equity and debt securities to implement our growth and construction plans and meet our liquidity needs going forward.
 
Subsequent to June 30, 2013, we entered into subscription agreements with certain accredited investors to provide $3,000,000 of funding for us in the form of Senior Secured Debt.  Without these funds, we would continue to experience significant liquidity problems that could have a potential adverse impact on our ability to continue to run our business.
 
 
 
38

 
 
While we have been successful in securing financing in sufficient amounts and suitable terms needed to meet our needs currently and in the past; there is no assurance that it will be able to do so in the future.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements other than those items listed in Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements as Commitments.
 
Transactions with Related parties
 
There are no related party transactions to report.   
 
Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Assumptions
 
The Company believes the following discussion addresses its most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of the financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
 
The Company has disclosed its accounting policies in “NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.  The following accounting policies provide an update to those included under the same captions in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 
Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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. Significant estimates include amounts for impairment of property, plant and equipment, share based compensation, asset retirement obligations, inventory obsolescence, accrued liabilities, valuation of short-term note receivable and accounts receivable exposures.
 
 
39

 
 
Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable represent unsecured obligations due from customers under terms requesting payments upon receipt of invoice up to thirty days, depending on the customer. Accounts receivable are non-interest bearing and are stated at the amounts billed to the customer net of an allowance for uncollectible accounts. Customer balances with invoices beyond agreed upon terms are considered delinquent. Payments of accounts receivable are allocated to the specific invoices identified on the customer remittance, or if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid invoice.
 
The allowance for uncollectible accounts reflects management’s best estimate of amounts that may not be collected based on an analysis of the age of receivables and the credit standing of individual customers. Accounts receivable determined to be uncollectible are recognized using the allowance method. The allowance for uncollectible accounts for the periods ending June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $27,810 and $57,991, respectively.
 
Inventories
 
Inventories consist of plastics, processing costs and processed fuels and are stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company uses an average costing method for determining cost (see Note 4). Inventories are periodically reviewed for use and obsolescence, and adjusted as necessary.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company reviews for impairment of long-lived assets on an asset by asset basis. Impairment is recognized on properties held for use when the expected undiscounted cash flows for a property are less than its carrying amount at which time the property is written-down to fair value. Properties held for sale are recorded at the lower of the carrying amount or the expected sales price less costs to sell. The sale or disposal of a “component of an entity” is treated as discontinued operations. The operating properties sold by the Company typically meet the definition of a component of an entity and as such the revenues and expenses associated with sold properties are reclassified to discontinued operations for all periods presented.
 
 
40

 
 
Asset Retirement Obligations
 
The fair value of the estimated asset retirement obligations is recognized in the consolidated balance sheets when identified and a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The asset retirement cost, equal to the estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation, is capitalized as part of the cost of the related long-lived asset. The asset retirement costs are depreciated over the asset’s estimated useful life and are included in depreciation and accretion expense on the consolidated statements of income. Increases in the asset retirement obligation resulting from the passage of time are recorded as accretion of asset retirement obligation in the consolidated statements of operations. Actual expenditures incurred are charged against the accumulated obligation.  The balance of such asset retirement obligation is included in other long-term liabilities with balances of $29,864 and $29,423 as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
 
Environmental Contingencies
 
We record environmental liabilities at their undiscounted amounts on our balance sheet as other current or long-term liabilities when environmental assessments indicate that remediation efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated. These costs may be discounted to reflect the time value of money if the timing of the cash payments is fixed or reliably determinable and extends beyond a current period.   Estimates of our liabilities are based on currently available facts, existing technology and presently enacted laws and regulations, taking into consideration the likely effects of other societal and economic factors, and include estimates of associated legal costs. These amounts also consider prior experience in remediating contaminated sites, other companies’ clean-up experience and data released by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or other organizations. Our estimates are subject to revision in future periods based on actual costs or new circumstances. We capitalize costs that benefit future periods and we recognize a current period charge in operation and maintenance expense when clean-up efforts do not benefit future periods.
 
We evaluate any amounts paid directly or reimbursed by government sponsored programs and potential recoveries or reimbursements of remediation costs from third parties including insurance coverage separately from our liability. Recovery is evaluated based on the creditworthiness or solvency of the third party, among other factors. When recovery is assured, we record and report an asset separately from the associated liability on our balance sheet. No amounts for recovery have been accrued to date.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and collection is reasonably assured.  The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.
 
P2O sales are recognized when the customers take possession of the fuel since at that stage the customer has completed all prior testing necessary for their acceptance of the fuel. At the time of possession they have arranged for transportation to pick it up and the sales price has either been set in their purchase contract or negotiated prior to the time of pick up through issuance of a purchase order. The Company negotiates the pricing of the fuel based on the quality of the product and the type of fuel being sold (i.e. Naphtha, Fuel Oil No.6 or Fuel Oil No. 2).

Subsequent Events
 
On July 6, 2013, 1,741,500 warrants issued in conjunction with the private placement in December 2011/ January 2012 expired and $1,776,330 was reclassified as additional paid in capital on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.
 
On July 11, 2013, the Board of Directors of JBI, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a  reduction in the labor force of approximately 15 employees, constituting approximately 25% of the Company’s workforce, whose employment was terminated as part of an overall plan to reduce the Company’s cost structure.  The Company estimated it will incur approximately $40,000 in total restructuring expenses, all of which are expected to result in future cash expenditures. The Company expects to recognize these restructuring charges of approximately $40,000 in the quarter ending September 30, 2013. These costs consist of severance and other employee-related costs.
 
On July 29, 2013, holders of 74,400 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock exercised their conversion rights under the Certificate of Designations and converted the aforementioned shares into 520,800 shares of the Company’s Common Stock.  All 520,800 of these shares were issued subsequent to June 30, 2013.
 
On August 8, 2013, JBI, Inc., (the “Company”) entered a stipulation agreement (the “Stipulation Agreement”) in potential settlement of the previously reported class action lawsuit filed by certain stockholders of the Company against the Company and Messrs. Bordynuik and Baldwin (both former officers of the Company) on behalf of a settlement class consisting of purchasers of the Company’s common stock during the period from August 28, 2009 through January 4, 2012 (the “Proposed Class Period”).  Under the Stipulation Agreement, the Company would agree to issue shares of its common stock that will comprise a settlement fund.  The number of shares to be issued will be dependent on the price per share of the Company’s common stock during a period preceding the date of the Court’s entry of final judgment in the case (the “Judgment Date”).  If the price of the Company’s common stock is less than $0.50 per share based upon the average closing price for the 90 trading days preceding the Judgment Date, the Company would issue 3 million shares of its common stock. If the price of the Company’s common stock is between $0.50 and $0.70 per shares, based upon the same 90-day average closing price, the Company would issue 2.5 million shares of its common stock.  If the price of the Company’s common stock is more than $0.70 per share based upon the same 90-day average closing price the Company will issue 1.75 million shares of its common stock.  The shares will not be distributed to class members in kind.  At any time after final approval by the Court, class counsel would have the option to sell all or any portion of such shares for the benefit of class members, subject to certain volume limitations.  Plaintiff’s counsel’s attorneys’ fees, subject to Court approval, would be paid out of the settlement fund.  The Company would also pay settlement-related costs up to a maximum of $200,000.  The plaintiffs and each of the class members who purchased the Company’s common stock during the Proposed Class Period and alleged they were damaged would be deemed to have fully released all claims against the Company and other defendants upon entry of judgment.  It is contemplated that the agreement will be submitted to the Court and that class counsel will apply for entry of an order requesting the preliminary approval of the settlement, including the mailing of a settlement notice that will include, among other things, the general terms of the settlement, proposed plan of allocation, and terms of plaintiff’s counsel’s fee application.  It is further contemplated that a hearing will be requested at which the Court will be asked to finally approve the settlement of the litigation and pursuant to entry of judgment.  The Company cannot predict the outcome of the class action litigation at this time.  Any actual settlement is subject to risks and uncertainties concerning, among other things, objections from class members to the terms of the settlement and failure of the Court to approve the settlement. 
 
On August 9, 2013, the previously reported stockholder derivative suit which was dismissed without prejudice on June 26, 2013 was re-filed in the U.S. District Court in the State of Massachusetts.  Currently, the Company has not been able to assess the potential liability, if any, related to this matter, however, the Company plans to vigorously defend this matter.
 
On August 14, 2013, Richard Heddle and Philip Bradley were appointed to the Board of Directors of the Company .  Mr. Heddle will serve as Chairman of the Board.
 
On August 14, 2013, Tony Bogolin informed the Board of Directors the Company of his resignation from his positions as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and from the Board, effective the close of business August 14, 2013.  In connection with Mr. Bogolin’s resignation, Mr. Bogolin and the Company executed a separation agreement (the "Bogolin Separation Agreement") on August 14, 2013. Pursuant to the terms of the Bogolin Separation Agreement, Mr. Bogolin will receive payment of the equivalent of four and one half months of his base salary and unused accrued vacation ($105,966) payable in three equal monthly payments and immediate accelerated vesting of options to purchase 370,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The exercise period of the vested options will be extended from ninety (90) days to seven years after execution of the Bogolin Separation Agreement.  In addition, Mr. Bogolin will receive continued coverage under the Company's benefit plans or equivalent coverage through December 31, 2013. 

Richard Heddle will serve in the capacity as Interim President and Chief Executive Officer for the foreseeable future.   

On August 14, 2013, Matthew Ingham informed the Board of Directors the Company of his resignation from his positions as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and from the Board, effective the close of business August 14, 2013.  In connection with Mr. Ingham’s resignation, Mr. Ingham and the Company executed a separation agreement (the "Ingham Separation Agreement") on August 14, 2013. Pursuant to the terms of the Ingham Separation Agreement, Mr. Ingham will receive payment of the equivalent of four and one half months of his base salary and unused accrued vacation ($74,176) payable in three equal monthly payments and immediate accelerated vesting of options to purchase 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.  The exercise period of the vested options will be extended from ninety (90) days to seven years after execution of the Ingham Separation Agreement.  In addition, Mr. Ingham will receive continued coverage under the Company's benefit plans or equivalent coverage through December 31, 2013.  

On August 14, 2013, the Company entered into a binding term sheet agreement with Richard Heddle to secure an investment in the Company of $3 million.  The investment will consist of a proposed Senior Secured Debt Payment in Kind Note (“Senior Debt”) secured by the property, plant and equipment and intellectual property of the Company, bears an interest rate of 12.5%.  The Senior Debt has a term of five years and has detachable warrants valued at 120% of the closing price of the stock on the date prior to funding.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Disclosures About Market Risk
 
We may be exposed to changes in financial market conditions in the normal course of business. Market risk generally represents the risk that losses may occur as a result of movements in interest rates and equity prices. We currently do not use financial instruments in the normal course of business that are subject to changes in financial market conditions.
 
Currency Fluctuations and Foreign Currency Risk
 
The Company mainly operates in the United States and Canada.  Due to the relative stability of the Canadian Dollar in comparison to the U.S. Dollar, we do not have significant foreign currency risk.
 
 
42

 
 
Interest Rate Risk
 
We deposit surplus funds with banks earning daily interest. We do not invest in any instruments for trading purposes. All of our outstanding debt instruments carry fixed rates of interests. The amount of current portion of capital leases outstanding as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $23,353 and $23,068, respectively. We are exposed to interest rate risk primarily with respect to our capital leases and mortgage.
 
Management monitors the banks’ prime rates in conjunction with our cash requirements to determine the appropriate level of debt balances relative to other sources of funds. We have not entered into any hedging transactions in an effort to reduce our exposure to interest rate risk.
 
Credit Risk
 
We have not experienced significant credit risk with our accounts receivable, as most of our customers are long-term customers with superior payment records. Our receivables are monitored regularly by our credit managers.  Currently, as noted in Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, we have become aware of the uncertainty of the creditworthiness of the noteholder related to PakIt and have accordingly reserved for the collectability of the note receivable related to that transaction.
 
During the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, 92.4% and 70.8% of total net sales were generated from 4 and 3 customers, respectively.  During the three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, 96.8% and 68.9% of total net sales were generated from 4 and 3 customers, respectively. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, 3 customers accounted for 75.2% and 56.3% of accounts receivable, respectively.
 
For the six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had approximately 33.4% and 7.2%, respectively of its purchases from 2 vendors.  For the three month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had approximately 33.6% and 8.5%, respectively of its purchases from 3 vendors.  As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, these three vendors accounted for 41.1% and 23.5%) of accounts payable, respectively.
 
Inflation Risk
 
Inflationary factors such as increases in the cost of our product and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results. Although we do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our financial position or results of operations to date, a high rate of inflation in the future may have an adverse effect on our ability to maintain current levels of gross margin and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenues if the selling prices of our products do not increase with these increased costs.

Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer (CEO) and chief financial officer (CFO), we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of March 31, 2013.  Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. 
 
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
 
During the period covered by this report, in order to remediate the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, we have taken numerous steps to address the underlying causes of the internal control deficiencies, primarily through the development of and documentation of policies and processes as well as the implementation of these policies and procedures.  
 
There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 that occurred during our last 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
 
We are subject to various types of litigation arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. We believe we have adequate reserves for these liabilities and that there is no individual case or group of related cases pending that is likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. Other than the litigation described immediately below, we are not engaged in any litigation which we believe is material to our operations. Additionally, we maintain insurance policies with insurers in amounts and with coverage and deductibles as our board of directors believes are reasonable and prudent.  However, we cannot be assured that this insurance will be adequate to protect us from all material expenses related to potential future claims for personal and property damage or that these levels of insurance will be available in the future at economical prices.
 
On April 25, 2013, plaintiffs ASPTO LLC, Plastic2Oil of Clearwater 1 LLC, and ES Resources LLC filed suit against the Company in the Circuit Court of Pinellas County, Florida, alleging breaches of certain contracts and seeking unspecified damages.  The Company thereafter removed the case to the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, and filed a motion to dismiss certain counts of the Complaint.  That motion is pending; the Court has not ruled upon it.  The Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time.
 
On August 9, 2013, the previously reported stockholder derivative suit which was dismissed without prejudice on June 26, 2013 was re-filed in the U.S. District Court in the State of Massachusetts.  Currently, the Company has not been able to assess the potential liability, if any, related to this matter, however, the Company plans to vigorously defend this matter.
