CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “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, 2013 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 4, 2014.

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. 

  PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION

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, the Company’s former CEO and current Chief of Technology, 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.  As of the date of this Report, JBI has built three processors which are located 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 15).  

In September 2009, the Company acquired Pak-It, LLC (“Pak-It”).  Pak-It operated a bulk chemical processing, mixing, and packaging facility.  It also developed and patented a delivery system that packages condensed cleaners in small water-soluble packages.  During 2011, the Company initiated a plan to sell certain operating assets of Pak-It and subsequently sold Pak-It in February 2012, with an effective date of January 1, 2012.  The operations of Pak-It have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented (see Note 15).

In December 2010, the Company entered into a twenty year lease for a recycling facility in Thorold, Ontario.  During the period, the Company determined that it would no longer operate the facility and shut down all operations.  The assets and operations related to the recycling facility have been reclassified as discontinued operations for all periods presented (Note 15).

The Company had to shut down its fuel production late in the fourth quarter of 2013 due to severe cold weather that caused damage to condensers and other components of it’s processors.  Management estimates that the repair of the processors will require the expenditure of between $175,000 and $200,000. As of the date of this report the Company lacked the working capital or access to bank credit to make these repairs. The Company is reviewing our financing options, including the sale of shares of its common stock or other securities, in order to allow us to obtain sufficient funds to make the required repairs and resume operation of its processors. Management currently anticipates that the processors will remain idle at least until the third quarter of 2014. During the idle period, we significantly reduced our headcount by furloughing its operations personnel but retained a small team to perform general repairs and maintenance on the processors. Once the processors are repaired, we expect a small increase in its headcount in order to resume normal operations.

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, and has a working capital deficiency of $2,158,270 and an accumulated deficit of $62,871,837 as of March 31, 2014. Management’s assessment of potential liquidity problems, working capital issues and negative cash flows from operations raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern and to operate in the normal course of business. To date, the Company has funded its activities primarily from equity financings and, to a much lesser extent, debt financing and cash from operations. A portion of such financings was funded by officers and directors of the Company. (See Note 13).

The Company will continue to require substantial funds to resume fuel production and to continue the expansion of its P2O business in order 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 the Company will be successful in obtaining such financing or that the Company 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

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the United States of America (“U.S.”) as promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and with the rules and regulations of the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown. The results of operations for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year or for any future period. The information included in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Results of Operations contained in this report and the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

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., JBI CDE Inc., JBI Re One Inc., JBI Re#1 Inc., Plastic2Oil Marine Inc., Javaco, Pak-It 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 Pak-It have also been consolidated; however, as mentioned their operations are classified as discontinued operations (Note 15).

Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States (“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, estimating reserves and determining accruals related to discontinued operations, projecting future cash flows from property, plant and equipment, carrying value of inventory, share based compensation, asset retirement obligations, inventory obsolescence, accrued liabilities, accounts receivable exposures, discount rate used in the determination of the fair value of the senior secured notes for purposes of performing the relative fair value calculation to allocate the proceeds between the notes and the warrants included in the subscription for the Notes, and the discount rate used to calculate the present value of the accrued lease liability.

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.  

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 March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $91,710. 

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:

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 15).

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 balance of the asset retirement obligation is determined through an assessment made by the Company’s engineers of the total costs expected to be incurred by the Company when closing a facility.  The total estimated cost is then discounted using the current market rates to determine the present value of the asset as of the date of this valuation of the asset retirement obligation.  As of the date of the creation of the asset retirement obligation, the Company determined the present value of the obligation using a discount rate equal to 2.96%.  The present value of the asset retirement obligation is then capitalized on the balance sheet and is depreciated over the asset’s estimated useful life and is included in depreciation and accretion expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. 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 of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company recorded asset retirement obligations of $30,533 and $30,306, respectively.  These costs include disposal of plastic and other non-hazardous waste, site closing labor and testing and sampling of the site upon closure.

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 $1,484,908 and $1,484,453 as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Leases

The Company has entered into various leases for 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.

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 a customer takes 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 the customer has arranged for transportation of the fuel and the sales price either has been set in its 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 (e.g.. Naphtha, Fuel Oil No. 6 or Fuel Oil No. 2).

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company’s shipping and handling costs were $11,204 and $13,357 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Shipping and handling costs are capitalized to inventory and expensed to cost of sales when the related inventory is sold for all periods presented. 

Advertising costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs were $490 and $2,865 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

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 three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company expensed $9,084 and $109,046, respectively, for 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 three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recognized foreign exchange gains of $967 and losses of $11,657, respectively.  These amounts are included as selling, general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

The Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 740-10-25, Income Taxes – Overall – Recognition (“ASC Topic 740-10-25”) with respect to the accounting for uncertainty of income tax positions. ASC Topic 740-10-25 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740-10-25 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As of March 31, 2014, tax years since December 31, 2008 remain open for IRS audit. The Company has received no notice of audit from the Internal Revenue Service for any of the open tax years.

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 three month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, potential dilutive common stock equivalents consisted of 16,100,000 shares underlying preferred stock Series B, 11,150,100 shares underlying common stock warrants, and 6,511,334 shares underlying stock options, which were not included in the calculation of the diluted loss per share,.

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, and Data Recovery and Migration, our magnetic tape reading segment. Our chief operating decision maker is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. (See Note 14)

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 collectability of the short term note receivable and determines its exposure for non-performance based on the specific holder and other pertinent information.

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:

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, cash held in attorney trust, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and current portion of mortgage and capital leases approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these items.

Summary

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 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

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-08, "Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity" ("ASU 2014-08"). ASU 2014-08 limits the requirement to report discontinued operations to disposals of components of an entity that represents strategic shifts that have (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results. The amendments also require expanded disclosures concerning discontinued operations and disclosures of certain financial results attributable to a disposal of a significant components of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. The amendments in this ASU are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted. The impact on our Financial Statements of adopting ASU 2014-08 is being assessed by management.

On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”. The standard outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The accounting standard is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim reporting periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. The impact on the Company’s Financial Statements of adopting ASU 2014-09 is being assessed by management.

 Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 – INVENTORIES, NET

Inventories consist of the following:

NOTE 5 - PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT, NET

At March 31, 2014 and 2013, machinery and equipment with a cost of $64,918, and accumulated amortization of $23,148 and $17,094, respectively, were under capital lease.  

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, total depreciation expense consists of $Nil included in Cost of Sales and depreciation of property, plant and equipment and accretion of long-term liability of $222,996, which is separately disclosed in the operating expenses.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, total depreciation expense consists of $7,646 included in Cost of Sales and depreciation of property, plant and equipment and accretion of long-term liability of $184,755, which is separately disclosed in the operating expenses.

Depreciation expense recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations was included in the following captions:

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 was due on July 1, 2013. Interest income recognized on the Note for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was $Nil and $6,139, respectively.  

Cancellation of Promissory note

On February 7, 2014, the Company accepted a cash payment of $200,000 in settlement of the $500,000 promissory note dated February 14, 2012 (the “Note”) that was originally issued by Big 3 Packaging LLC (the “Buyer”) in connection with the Company’s sale to Buyer of substantially all of the assets of Pak-It on February 14, 2012. In connection with the termination of the Note, the Company and the Buyer executed a mutual general release of claims.

The Note matured on July 1, 2013 but remained unpaid by the Buyer. The Company fully reserved for the full value of the note and included the amount of $500,000 as a loss contributable to discontinued operations (Note 15). The final termination payment of $200,000 was recorded as a bad debt recovery and included in income from discontinued operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2014.

NOTE 7 – RESTRICTED CASH AND LETTER OF CREDIT

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 March 31, 2014.  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.  As of March 31, 2014 and 2013, 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 $1,942,410 pre-tax loss from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

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 March 31, 2014, 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 ended December 31, 2008 through December 31, 2013 are open tax years.

NOTE 9 – LONG-TERM DEBT, MORTGAGE PAYABLE AND CAPITAL LEASES

The following annual payments of principal are required over the next five years in respect of these mortgages and capital leases:

NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments

Plastic2Oil Marine, Inc., one of the Company’s subsidiaries, which is currently not operating, is a party to a consulting services contract entered into in 2010 with a company owned by Mr. Richard Heddle, who was appointed CEO of the Company in August 2013. The contract provides the related company with a share of the operating income earned from Plastic2Oil technology installed on marine vessels which are owned by the related company. The contract provides a minimum future payment equal to fifty percent of the operating income generated from the operations of two of the most profitable marine vessel processors and 10% from all other marine vessel processors. As of March 31, 2014, there was no currently installed marine vessel processors as per the terms of the contract.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company has committed to purchase certain pieces of key machinery from vendors related to the future expansion of our operations.  In addition to the payments made to these vendors classified as deposits on assets, the Company will be required to pay approximately $495,000 upon the delivery of these assets.

The Company leases its premises in Thorold, Ontario, which was previously used in the operation JBI (Canada), Inc. doing business as Regional Recycling of Niagara ("RRON"). As of March 31, 2014, the remaining lease term was almost 17 years. During the third quarter of 2013, the Company determined that it would shut down the operations of RRON (see Note 15). The employees of RRON were given notice of the shut down in the first week of September, after which point the Company approached the landlord about terminating the lease; however, there was no formal termination as an agreement to terminate the lease was not reached. During September of 2013, the Company assessed its options with the facility, including potential sublease, but determined that a sublease of the facility was not permitted by the lease and officially decided to cease use of the premises as of September 30, 2013. Accordingly, the Company applied September 30, 2013 as the cease-use-date in recognizing the liability for the contract termination costs. In measuring the liability, the Company calculated all remaining contracted lease payments, being $1,872,650 ($1,926,000 CAD), and performed a present value calculation using a discount rate of 20%. The present value calculation resulted in an accrued lease liability of $505,747, of which $79,428 is due within the next 12 months and has been presented as a current liability.  The total accrued lease liability expense was reduced by $68,818 of the deferred rent liability which was being amortized over the period of the lease.  The total expense included in loss from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of operations is $11,165 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 (Note 17).

All future payments required under various agreements are summarized below:

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 March 31, 2014, the Company has received $118,250 of repayments. This is a cumulative amount from 2012 and 2013.  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 Company 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 Company’s’ answer to the amended complaint was filed during the fourth quarter of 2012.

On August 8, 2013, JBI, Inc., 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.  On September 10, 2013, that agreement was submitted to the Court, and class counsel moved for entry of an order granting 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.  On April 1, 2014, the Court issued an Order denying that motion.  It is anticipated that additional briefing will be submitted to the Court in support of the motion, and that the Court will then reconsider its Order. The Company cannot predict the outcome of the class action litigation at this time.

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.  On November 12, 2013, the Court issued an Order transferring the case to the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts.   On June 12, 2014, the parties stipulated to a dismissal of the case without prejudice, and the case has been dismissed.

On August 9, 2013, a purported shareholder derivative suit was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts against John Bordynuik, former Chief Executive Officer of the Company and a former member of the Company’s Board of Directors, and Ronald C. Baldwin, former Chief Financial Officer of the Company.  The Complaint was filed by Erwin Grampp, allegedly acting on behalf of the Company, and it names the Company as a nominal defendant.  This is the second purported shareholder derivative suit that Mr. Grampp has filed in which the Company has been named as a nominal defendant.  As previously reported, the first such suit by Mr. Grampp was dismissed by the court.  This recent Complaint (“Grampp II”) alleges, inter alia, that defendants Bordynuik and Baldwin breached fiduciary duties owed to the Company by causing the Company to erroneously book certain media credits in 2009.  Grampp II alleges that this conduct resulted in two lawsuits against the Company, one an action brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC Action”) and the other a purported class action by Ellisa Pancoe and Howard Howell (“Class Action”).  Grampp II alleges that the Company has settled the SEC Action, and that the Company is in the process of settling the Class Action, but that the Company has been damaged as a result of these two lawsuits.  Grampp II seeks to recover damages on behalf of the Company from defendants Bordynuik and Baldwin in an unspecified amount.  It also seeks unspecified equitable relief, and costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in the action.  On October 11, 2013, defendants Bordynuik and Baldwin filed a motion to dismiss this action.  Thereafter, the Court granted plaintiff leave to amend his Complaint, and defendants Bordynuik and Baldwin have renewed their motion to dismiss. The motion thus renewed is pending and the Court has not ruled upon it.  Pursuant to the Company’s By-Laws, the Company has an obligation to indemnify defendants Bordynuik and Baldwin to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law.

On August 20, 2013, plaintiff Stephen Seneca filed suit against the Company and John Bordynuik, former Chief Executive Officer of the Company and a former member of its Board of Directors, alleging claims against the Company for fraud, negligence, civil conspiracy, and breach of contract, as well as a breach of Section 678.4011, Florida Statutes.  The claims allege wrongdoing by the Company in connection with a Unit Purchase and Exchange Agreement dated September 30, 2009, and certain shares of the Company’s stock issued pursuant thereto.  On September 17, 2013, plaintiff caused a Summons to be issued on the Complaint, and on September 26, 2013, plaintiff caused the Complaint to be served on the Company.  Plaintiff seeks damages “in excess of one million dollars.”  On October 31, 2013, the Company and Mr. Bordynuik filed a motion to dismiss this Complaint.    On May 14, 2014, the Court issued an Order granting the motion in part. The Court dismissed one of the claims made against the Company, and struck another from the Complaint.  Mr. Bordynuik and the Company thereafter filed their Answer to the complaint. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time.

On August 14, 2013, John Bordynuik, Inc. aka 310 Holdings, Inc. brought suit against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada, alleging damages for breach of contract, conversion, fraud and fraud in the inducement in connection with an alleged 2009 Asset Purchase Agreement.  In September of 2013 and October of 2013, the Company brought motions to dismiss the complaint and for summary judgment.  Those motions are pending before the Court.  The Company cannot predict the outcome of this matter at this time.

As of March 31, 2014, 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 consolidated financial statements of the Company. 

NOTE 11 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock and Additional Paid in Capital

 The Company issued 3,900,000 additional shares of Common Stock during the three-month period ended March 31, 2014.

On February 19, 2014, the Company entered into Subscription Agreements with three investors in connection with a private placement of shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock. The Company agreed to sell and issue to the Purchasers an aggregate of 2.4 million shares of its common stock and warrants to purchase up to an additional 2.4 million shares of its common stock. The closings occurred between February 19 and 24, 2014. The purchase price per share was $0.05 and the gross proceeds to the Company were $120,000.

Along with each of the forgoing share issuances, the Company is required to issue a commensurate number of warrants with a three year term and an exercise price of $0.10.. Additionally, under the terms of the consulting agreement the Company is committed to issue 1,000,000 additional shares if the Company becomes listed on the AMEX division of the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ. The consulting agreement also specifies contingent fees of 5% of the gross transaction amount for introducing a merger or acquisition candidate and 3% of fees earned from the introduction of a strategic or business partner.

Pursuant to two separate secured debt issuances on August 29, 2013 and September 30, 2013, the Company issued 1,000,000 and 2,000,000 warrants, respectively, to purchase shares of common stock for $0.54 per share to the holder of the secured debt (see Note 13).  The warrants have a five year term from the date of issuance, as such the corresponding expiry dates are August 29, 2018 and September 30, 2018.

As of August 29, 2013, the 1,000,000 warrants issued were determined to each have a fair value of $0.3102, totaling a fair value of $310,200.  The Company determined this valuation through use of a binomial pricing model. The assumptions in valuing these Warrants consisted of:

(ii) As of March 31, 2014, the 8,150,000 warrants issued were determined to each have a fair value of $0.0793, totaling a fair value of $646,420.  The Company determined this valuation through use of a binomial pricing model. The assumptions in valuing these Warrants consisted of:

Preferred Stock

Series A Preferred Stock

At March 31, 2014, Mr. John Bordynuik, the Company’s founder and current Chief of Technology, held all outstanding 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock.  These shares have no participation rights, however, they carry super voting rights in which each share of Preferred Stock has 100:1 times the voting rights of common stock. Mr. Bordynuik was a party to a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with certain investors (the “Investors”) in our May 2012 private placement, which Letter Agreement contained certain restrictions on Mr. Bordynuik’s ability to vote his shares of Series A Preferred Stock (see Note 17).

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 (“Common Stock”), 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 remained outstanding on June 30, 2014 were automatically converted into Common Stock pursuant to the terms of the Series B Designation (see Note 17).

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 share 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.

The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are 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 Company recognized a beneficial conversion feature related to the Series B Preferred Shares, to the extent that the conversion feature, based on the proceeds allocated to the Series B Preferred Shares, was in-the-money at the time they were issued. Such beneficial conversion feature amounted to approximately $2,467,571.  Because the Series B Preferred Shares have a stated conversion date and may be converted by the holder at any time, the beneficial conversion feature will be recognized ratably over the eighteen months in which the holders of the Series B Preferred Shares may exercise their conversion option.  Additionally, as the beneficial conversion feature is amortized, a deemed distribution is included in the computation of loss per share with no impact on net loss or stockholders ‘equity. No actual cash is paid out in relation to this transaction.

NOTE 12 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS AND AWARDS

The Company’s 2012 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”) provides for the issuance of stock options, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards to members of management and key employees. The 2012 Plan is administered by the compensation committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, or in the absence of a committee, the full Board of Directors of the Company. The Plan was enacted in July 2012, and prior to this time, no plan and consequently, no stock options or shares of restricted stock were granted under an equity compensation plan.

NOTE 14 – SEGMENT 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 15 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Pak-It and Javaco

During the period ended June 30, 2013, the Company made an assessment of the collectability of the note receivable from the buyer of Pak-It.  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 which has been recorded in the discontinued operations in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

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 March 30, 2014 and December 31, 2014, no assets related to Javaco remained.

There are no operations of Javaco included in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 30, 2014.  

Regional Recycling of Niagara

During the third quarter of 2013, the Company determined that due to the significant losses incurred by Regional Recycling of Niagara, and the continuous need to fund their operations through the Company’s Plastic2Oil operations, that it would shut down the operations of the facility.  The decision to do this was based on the following factors:

The results of operations from Regional Recycling of Niagara for three months ended March 30, 2014 and 2013 have been classified as discontinued operations and are as follows:

The charter amendment to effect the name change is expected to be filed in August 2014. 

Series A Preferred Stock

On May 30, 2014, Mr. John Bordynuik, the Company’s founder and current Chief of Technology, returned to the Company for cancellation 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. On June 2, 2014, the company filed an amendment to its Article of Incorporation to terminate the Series A Preferred Stock. Mr. Bordynuik was a party to a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with certain investors (the “Investors”) in our May 2012 private placement, which Letter Agreement contained certain restrictions on Mr. Bordynuik’s ability to vote his 1 million shares of Series A Preferred Stock. In the second quarter of 2014, the Letter Agreement was terminated upon the receipt of waiver/rescission notices from the requisite number of Investors required under the Letter Agreement’s terms.  On May 30, 2014, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock were cancelled and, on June 3, 2014, a Certificate of Withdrawal relating to the Series A Preferred Stock was filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada.

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, 2013 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 4, 2014.

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, and our Data Recovery & Migration Business.  Previously, we operated an electronic and video equipment distribution business, conducted by Javaco, Inc. (“Javaco”).  As of March 31, 2014, no assets related to Javaco remained on the books.  For the three month period ended March 31, 2014, 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 2014 and periods thereafter.   Historically, however, our revenues have been derived primarily from our other segments and products, including those noted above as discontinued operations.

Plastic2Oil Business

We manufacture processors which produce fuel products mainly from unsorted, unwashed waste plastics for distribution across a number of markets. We continue to execute on our business strategy with the goal of becoming a leading North American company that transforms waste plastic into ultra-clean, ultra-low sulphur fuel.

Currently, we provide environmentally-friendly solutions through our processors and technologies. Our primary offering is our Plastic2Oil®, or P2O®, solution, which is our proprietary process that converts waste plastic into fuel through a series of chemical reactions (our “P2O business”). We collect mainly mixed plastics from commercial and industrial enterprises that generate large amounts of waste plastic for use in our process.

Generally, this waste plastic would otherwise be sent to landfills and its disposal potentially can be quite costly for companies. We use this waste plastic as feedstock to produce Fuel Oil No. 2, Naphtha, and Fuel Oil No. 6 for various uses by our customers. We own and operate our P2O processors and have the capability to produce and store the fuels at, and ship from, our facilities in Niagara Falls, NY. We sell the fuels we produce to customers through two main distribution channels, fuel wholesalers and directly to commercial and industrial end-users.

Our P2O processors have evolved into a modular solution with the completion of processor #3 in 2013. We use third party contract manufacturers for the manufacture of many of the key modular components of our processors, including the kilns and distillation towers as well as certain other key components that require specialized machining and fabrication.

Our P2O process is proprietary and converts waste plastic into fuel through a series of chemical reactions.  We developed this process in 2009 and began very 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 at our Niagara Falls, New York facility.  Currently, we have three fully-permitted operational P2O processors, which are capable of producing Naphtha, Fuel Oil No. 2 and Fuel Oil No. 6, all of which are fuels produced to the specifications published by ASTM.  The fully-permitted P2O processor is dedicated to Research & Development activities. We have two additional processors in the process of assembly offsite. Our P2O process is capable of producing two by-products, an off-gas similar to natural gas and a petcoke carbon residue.  We primarily use our off-gas product in our operations to fuel the burners in our P2O processors.  We sell our fuel products through two main distribution channels comprised of fuel wholesalers and directly to commercial and industrial end-users.

The Company had to shut down its production late in the fourth quarter of 2013 due to severe cold weather that caused damage to condensers and other components of our processors.  Management estimates that the repair of the processors will require the expenditure of between $175,000 and $200,000. At July 28, 2014, we lacked the working capital or access to bank credit to make these repairs. We are reviewing our financing options, including the sale of shares of our common stock or other securities, in order to allow us to obtain sufficient funds to make the required repairs and resume operation of our processors. Management currently anticipates that the processors will remain idle at least until the third quarter of 2014. During the idle period, we significantly reduced our headcount by furloughing our operations personnel but retained a small team to perform general repairs and maintenance on the processors. Once the processors are repaired, we expect a small increase in our headcount in order to resume normal operations.

Our P2O process accepts mainly unsorted, unwashed waste plastics.  Although many sources of plastic waste are available, we have focused our feedstock sources on primarily post-commercial and industrial waste plastic.  Generally, we believe that this waste stream is more costly for companies to dispose of, making it more readily available in large quantities and cheaper for us to acquire than other potential types of feedstock.   We believe our P2O process offers a cost-effective solution for businesses that currently have to pay to dispose of these types of waste.

Currently, we understand that there are several plastic-to-oil processes operational globally. These facilities employ a wide range of technologies and yield varying purities of fuel output. We believe that our process has many advantages over other commercially available processes in that our P2O solution requires a comparatively lesser initial capital investment and yields high-quality, ultra-low sulphur fuel, with no need for further refinement. Additionally, our process uses comparatively little energy and physical space, which, in our view, makes it better suited for high-volume production and expansion to multiple sites.

Processor Output

We are currently permitted to feed two tons, or 4,000 pounds, of waste plastic per hour into each processor by a continuous conveyor belt where it is heated by a burner that mainly burns off-gases produced from the P2O process. Plastic hydrocarbons are cracked into various shorter hydrocarbon chains and exit in a gaseous state. Any residue, metals and or non-usable substances remain in the reactor and are periodically removed. Through our proprietary process Fuel Oil No. 6, Fuel Oil No. 2, and Naphtha are condensed from the reactor through the remainder of the process. The fuel output is then transferred to storage tanks automatically by the system. Our process is mainly operated by an automated computer system that controls the conveyor feed rate, system temperatures, off-gas systems and the pumping out of newly created fuel to storage tanks. The plastic to liquid fuel conversion is approximately 86% by weight. Therefore, 20 tons of plastic would be processed into approximately 4,100 gallons of fuel. At June 3, 2014, we had three operational processors at our Niagara Falls, NY facility. One processor was dedicated to Research & Development.

Fuel Produced:  The fuel produced in our processors is ultra-low sulfur fuel and is ready for end-users without the need for further refinement.

Off-gas:  Approximately 8-10% of waste plastics fed into the processors are converted to a mixture of hydrogen, methane, ethane, butane and propane gas (“off-gas”).  Once our processors are in a state to begin the P2O process, they use their own off-gas to fuel the burners in the process.

Residue: There is approximately 2-4% residue from our process, which is petroleum coke or carbon black (“petcoke”) that needs to be removed on a periodic basis.

Feedstock

Our P2O process primarily uses post-commercial and industrial waste plastic that might otherwise be sent to a landfill by the commercial and industrial producers of such waste plastic.  We believe that this can be costly for these producers due to the large volumes of plastic waste that they generate. As such, our business model is premised on our ability to accept numerous types of waste plastics from such sources at a relatively low cost.  We believe that our ability to accept mainly mixed, unwashed waste plastics is a significant advantage of our P2O process compared to similar operations in our industry.

Fuel Products

Our P2O process makes both light and heavy fuel products which are; specifically Naphtha, Fuel Oil No. 2 and Fuel Oil No. 6, as defined by ASTM.  Our process also generates two main by-products, an off-gas similar to natural gas and a carbon residue known as petcoke.

Naphtha is a very light fuel product that is used as a cutting component for both high and regular grade gasoline. Fuel Oil No. 2 is a mid-range fuel commonly known as diesel and has numerous transportation, manufacturing and industrial uses.  Fuel Oil No. 6 is a heavy fuel generally used in industrial boilers and ships.  Our process produces high quality, ultra-low sulphur fuels, without the need for further refinement which enables us to sell our fuel directly from our processors to the end-user.

The off-gas that is produced by the P2O process is used to fuel the burner that heats the entire processor.

P2O Facilities

We currently have one main operating facility that we use in our P2O business, our P2O plant, as well as a second facility, our fuel blending site, for use in the future.  These are briefly described below. Additional information on our properties can be found in Item 2 of this report.

Niagara Falls, NY facility:  Our Niagara Falls, NY facility currently has two buildings used in fuel production operations, a 10,000 square foot building that currently houses one commercial-scale P2O processors, one P2O processor devoted to research & development activities, and a 7,200 square foot building housing the third commercial-scale P2O processor.  Our Niagara Falls operations are situated on eight acres which can accommodate expansion of our growing operations.  This facility also serves as the center of our research and development operations and our administrative offices.

Blending Site:  We own a 250,000 gallon fuel-blending facility in Thorold, Ontario, which, when in use, would allow us to blend and self-certify certain fuels that are produced from our process to meet government specifications.

Sales and Distribution

We sell our fuel products through two main channels: fuel brokers and direct to end-users.  We have no long-term contracts for fuel sales; rather, we sell our fuel through the issuance of routine purchase orders.

Suppliers

The principal goods that we require for our P2O business are the waste plastic that we use as feedstock for production of our fuels.  We collect waste plastics from commercial and industrial businesses that generate large amounts of this waste stream. As of July 28, 2014 we had approximately 46,892 pounds of waste plastic and approximately 25,548 gallons of Heat Transfer Fluid available in inventory as feedstock, to support the resumption of operations upon the repairs, as mentioned above.

Licenses, Permits and Testing

We maintain the following permits and licenses in connection with the operation of our P2O business.

In 2010, our P2O process and processors were tested by IsleChem, LLC, an independent chemical firm providing contract research and development, manufacturing and scale-up services, using two small prototypes of our P2O processor.  The IsleChem test results indicated that our process is both repeatable and scalable. Following this testing, we assembled a large-scale P2O processor capable of processing at least 20 metric tons of plastic per day. In September 2010, we had a Stack Test performed by Conestoga-Rovers & Associates (“CRA”), an independent engineering and consulting firm, which concluded that, with a feed rate of 2,000 pounds of plastic per hour, our processor’s emissions were below the maximum emissions levels allowed by the NYSDEC simple air permit, which is needed to commercially operate the P2O processor at that location.  We used the CRA test results to apply for the required operating permits and in June 2011 we received an Air State Facility Permit (“Air Permit”) and Solid Waste Management Permit (“Solid Waste Permit”) for up to three processors at the Niagara Falls, NY facility.  In December 2011, we had a second stack test performed by CRA for an increased rate of 4,000 pounds per hour.  In January 2012, we received a final emissions report from CRA confirming that emissions were considerably decreased with an increased feed rate.  In December 2012, we had a stack test performed on the second processor.

The emissions tests conducted by CRA on our processors are summarized in the following table:

Data Recovery & Migration Business

In June 2009, we purchased certain assets from John Bordynuik, Inc., a corporation founded by John Bordynuik, our former Chief Executive Officer and current Chief of Technology. The assets acquired from John Bordynuik, Inc. included tape drives, computer hardware, servers and a mobile data recovery lab to read and transfer data from magnetic tapes and these assets are used in our Data Recovery & Migration business.

Magnetic tapes were previously a primary media for data storage. Because of its cost effectiveness, magnetic tape was widely used by government, scientific, educational and commercial organizations for decades. Over time, these tapes can become vulnerable to deterioration when exposed to natural elements, which can render the tapes difficult to read or unreadable using the original tape-reading equipment.  Our Data Business involves reading old magnetic tapes, interpreting and restoring the data where necessary and transferring the recovered data to storage formats used in current systems. The recovered data is verified for accuracy and returned to customers in the media storage format of their choice. Our process gives customers the ability to conveniently catalogue and safely archive difficult-to-retrieve data on readily accessible, contemporary storage media. Users of these services generally include businesses or organizations that have historically stored information on magnetic tape, such as government agencies, oil and gas companies and academic institutions.

The process for data recovery was developed and is very highly dependent on Mr. John Bordynuik.  The Data Business’s reliance on Mr. Bordynuik has been a key driver to achieving revenue in 2013 and 2012. In light of our business strategy focus on our P2O business, we anticipate that revenues and profits generated from our Data Business operations will represent a decreasing share, if any, of our total revenues and profits in future reporting periods.

Results of Operations

Three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to three months ended March 31, 2013

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 our Chief of Technology, who possesses the relevant expertise.  We generated $18,718 of revenues from P2O business during the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, compared to revenues of $129,888 during the same period ended March 31, 2013. The following table shows a breakdown of our revenues from these sources.

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 revenue in the first quarter of 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 was mainly due to the Company’s decision to shut down its production late in the fourth quarter of 2013 due to severe cold weather that caused damage to condensers and other components of our processors.

Revenues from the Data Business were driven by the completion of open and outstanding purchase orders. We had no revenues generated from the Data Business during the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, compared to revenues of $14,920 during the same period ended March 31, 2013. The decrease was a result of the reduction of headcount by furloughing our operations personnel.

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:

Cost of goods sold decreased 83% in the first quarter of 2014 as compared to same period of 2013 as a result of the Company’s decision to shut down its production late in the fourth quarter of 2013 due to severe cold weather that caused damage to condensers and other components of our processors. The following is a detail of the cost per gallon of fuel as well as the individual components that make-up the cost per gallon.

The cost of goods sold related to the Data Business relate to the direct labor incurred in the reading and interpreting of the magnetic tape data.

Total Gross Profit (Loss)

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we recorded negative gross profit of $5,215, compared to gross profit of $7,485 for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

The gross profit related to our fuel sales for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was negatively impacted by to the Company’s decision to shut down its production late in the fourth quarter of 2013 due to severe cold weather that caused damage to condensers and other components of our processors.   For the three months ended March 31, 2013, upon the closure of RRON, we 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. The Company was receiving this product at a lesser price than the cost of the plastic that needed significant pre-processing.

Operating Expenses 

We incurred operating expenses of $1,835,415 during the three months ended March 31, 2014, compared to $2,460,950 for the period ended March 31, 2013.  The major decreases in the current period, mainly driven by a $332,000 in non-cash stock compensation decrease, $340,00 legal Fees decrease offset by a $$528K non-cash professional fees increase and $100,000 decrease in repairs and maintenance expenses.

Non-Operating Expenses

Interest Expenses

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, we had net interest expense of $101,802, mainly from the interest payments on the mortgage on our facility in Canada, interest payments on our capital leases, and interest accrued on our long-term debt..  This was compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013, where we recognized net interest income of $2,076, mainly through interest payments on the mortgage on our facility in Canada as well as interest payments on our capital leases.

Income Tax Expenses

For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, 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.  

Net Loss

We incurred a net loss of $1,753,570 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to a net loss of $2,714,521 in the three months ended March 31, 2013.  These losses consisted of losses from continuing operations of $1,942,410 and $2,450,051 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and income of $188,840 and loss of $264,470 from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $86,663 on hand.  The Company does not currently have a formal cash management policy in place. 

The Company’s cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 are summarized below: 

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 or debt securities in private placement transactions, including investment by our officers and directors. 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.

In the short term, we expect to need additional capital and will need to this raise additional capital in order to obtain cash flow positive results from our P2O processors.  We expect that we will attempt to raise capital through the issuance of long term notes, through private placements of our common and/ or preferred stock or through other financing efforts in which we can obtain substantial liquidity.  Additionally, we could enter into transactions with third parties in which we sell and potentially operate our P2O processors on their sites.  We expect that this would generate additional needed cash.

In the long term, we expect that we will be able to fund our daily operations through the generation of sales of our fuels and P2O Processors  However, we will require significant proceeds from the sale., of our common stock, preferred stock, debt securities in order to fund the construction of multiple processors .

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, 2013 includes an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

In the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, 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. 

Investing activities include the Company’s cash investment in property, plant and equipment which amounted to $18,405 in the three months ended March 31, 2014, as compared to $1,024,507 in the three months ended March 31, 2013.  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 three months ended March 31, 2014 represented the cash received upon the sale of shares of common stock in private placement. during the period as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013, cash from financing activities represented cash received from the sale of Series B Preferred Stock.  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.

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 11 to the condensed consolidated financial statements as Commitments.

Transactions with Related parties

On August 29, 2013, the Company entered into a Subscription Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Mr. Richard Heddle, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Company board of directors, pursuant to which, on August 29, 2013, the Company sold to the Purchaser in a private placement (the “Note Financing”) a $1 million principal amount 12% Secured Promissory Note (the “Note”), together with a five-year warrant to purchase up to one million shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.54 per share (the “Warrants”). The gross proceeds to the Company were $1 million.

On March 31, 2014, the Company entered into a second Purchase Agreement with Mr. Heddle, pursuant to which, on March 30, 2013, the Company sold to Mr. Heddle a second note (a $2 million principal amount Note), together with a Warrant to purchase up to two million shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.54 per share. The gross proceeds to the Company were $2 million.

In June and July, 2014, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer made seven individual loans to the Company totaling $156,275 to be used for working capital purposes.

In June and July, 2014, the Company’s Chief Technology Officer John Bordynuik made payments in behalf of the Company totaling $15,750 for critical operating services.

In March 2013, the Company’s Chief of Technology, as personal guarantor of a Capital Lease from Roynat Lease Finance paid the outstanding obligation in the amount of $19,928 and assumed the lease.

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, 2013.  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 these estimates. Significant estimates include amounts for impairment of property, plant and equipment, estimating reserves and determining accruals related to discontinued operations, projecting future cash flows from property, plant and equipment, and carrying value of inventory, share based compensation, asset retirement obligations, inventory obsolescence, accrued liabilities, valuation of the short term note receivable, accounts receivable exposures, discount rate used in the determination of the fair value of the Senior Secured Notes for purposes of performing the relative fair value calculation to allocate the proceeds between the Notes and the Warrants included in the subscription for the Notes, and the discount rate used to calculate the present value of the accrued lease liability.

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 as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $91,710.

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.

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 $30,533 and $30,306 as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, 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

We recognize revenue when it is realized or realizable and collection is reasonably assured.  We consider 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. We negotiate 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

Name Change and increase in total number of shares authorized

On May 16, 2014, the Company’s board of directors and certain stockholders holding a majority of the voting power of our outstanding common stock and preferred stock approved resolutions authorizing an amendment to it’s Articles of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) to (i) change it’s name to “Plastic2Oil, Inc.” and (ii) increase the total number of authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of our Company from 150,000,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares.  A charter amendment to increase the authorized shares of common stock was filed in the State of Nevada on June 24, 2014. The charter amendment to effect the name change is expected to be filed in August 2014.

Private Placement

On February 19, 2014 the Company entered into Subscription Agreements with three investors in connection with a private placement of shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock. The Company agreed to sell and issue to the Purchasers an aggregate of 2.4 million shares of its common stock and Warrants to purchase up to an additional 2.4 million shares of its common stock. The closings occurred between February 19 and 24, 2014. The purchase price per share was $0.05 and the gross proceeds to the Company were $120,000. The Warrants have a three year term, and an exercise price of $0.10 per share of common stock. Concurrent with these subscriptions the Company entered into a consulting agreement with the investors and a fourth arm’s length party under which the Company would issue 1,500,000 shares upon commencement of the contract, and 1,000,000 shares on each of May 15, 2014, August 15, 2014 and January 15, 2015, respectively, for a total of 4,000,000 shares. Along with each of the forgoing share issuances, the Company will issue a commensurate number of warrants with a three year term and an exercise price of $0.10. The shares and warrants specified by the consulting agreement have not been issued. Additionally, under the terms of the consulting agreement the Company is committed to issue 1,000,000 additional shares if the Company becomes listed on the AMEX division of the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ. The consulting agreement also specifies contingent fees of 5% of the gross transaction amount for introducing a merger or acquisition candidate and 3% of fees earned from the introduction of a strategic or business partner.

On March 26, 2014 the Company entered into Subscription Agreements with eleven investors in connection with a private placement of shares of the Company’s common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock.

Series A Preferred Stock

On May 30, 2014, Mr. John Bordynuik, the Company’s founder and current Chief of Technology, returned to the Company for cancellation 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Stock. On June 2, 2014, the company filed an amendment to its Article of Incorporation to terminate the Series A Preferred Stock. Mr. Bordynuik was a party to a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with certain investors (the “Investors”) in our May 2012 private placement, which Letter Agreement contained certain restrictions on Mr. Bordynuik’s ability to vote his 1 million shares of Series A Preferred Stock. In the second quarter of 2014, the Letter Agreement was terminated upon the receipt of waiver/rescission notices from the requisite number of Investors required under the Letter Agreement’s terms.  On May 30, 2014, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock were cancelled and, on June 3, 2014, a Certificate of Withdrawal relating to the Series A Preferred Stock was filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada.

Item 3. 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.

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 March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $13,366 and $23,618, 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 note holder related to Pak-It and have accordingly reserved for the collectability of the note receivable related to that transaction.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, 100%, and 93.0%, respectively, of total net revenues were generated from one customer and three customers.   As of March 31, 2014, and 2013 one, and four customers, respectively, accounted for 100.0%, and 90.5% of accounts receivable.  

During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, 19.1%, of total net purchases were made from one vendor.  

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

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

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, 2014.  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
