Item 1. Business
Our History
Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in Idaho on October 19, 1964, under the name Idaho Silver, Inc. Our wholly owned subsidiary, Florida Precision Aerospace, Inc., a Florida corporation ("FPA"), was incorporated on February 26, 1993.
General
We believe we are emerging as a potential leader in the rapidly growing environmental and industrial separation industries. The Company has developed, patented and manufactures the Voraxial® Separator ("Voraxial Separator" or "Voraxial"), a proprietary technology that efficiently separates large volumes of liquid/liquid, liquid/solids or liquid/liquid/solids fluid mixtures with distinct specific gravities. Management believes this superior separation quality is achieved in real-time, and in much greater volumes, with a more compact, cost effective and energy efficient machine than any comparable product on the market today. Management believes the Voraxial fills a void in the market; specifically a real-time separation device that separates a large volume of liquids with a small footprint and without the need of a pressure drop. We believe the need for such a separation device overlaps many markets. These benefits result in significant cost savings to the customer, both acquisition and operating cost.
The Voraxial is capable of processing volumes as low as 3 gallons per minute as well as volumes over 5,000 gallons per minute with only one moving part. The Company believes that the Voraxial technology can help protect the environment and its natural resources while simultaneously making numerous industries more productive and cost effective.
The size and efficiency advantages provided by the Voraxial Separator to the end-user have provided us with a variety of market opportunities. We believe separation of contaminants from water is needed in virtually every industry, either in the manufacturing or production side of the business or in purifying the wastewater prior to discharge. Because of the advantages the Voraxial Separator offers the end user, the Voraxial can be used in many different markets. This allows the Company to pursue its core market, oil and gas exploration and production, while responding and selling product to customers in other markets, including, but not limited to, oil spill, mining, and municipal wastewater. The Company is focusing its sales activity in the oil & gas exploration and production market, which also includes the tar sands, Frac water, oil refineries and production facilities, both offshore and onshore applications.
We have generated limited revenues to date partially due to the time required to educate the market of our separation technology, partially because of insufficient funds to adequately market our product; and the time needed to secure and complete initial projects. However, with the dissemination of the data from our initial projects, we believe demand and interest for the Voraxial continues to increase. We are in various stages of negotiations with multiple customers interested in our Voraxial Separators and Voraxial Separator Systems. While we cannot provide any reasonable assurances, we believe a percentage of these negotiations will ultimately be consummated. If we fail to consummate any of these transactions, we may be required to scale back or cease operations, sell or liquidate our assets and possibly seek bankruptcy protection.
We are receiving inquiries from customers in various industries. Even though customers from various industries can utilize the Voraxial, we are currently focused on developing market channels to penetrate the oil and gas exploration and production market and more specifically, the produced water market. The Company believes that revenues from this industry will continue to increase in 2016 and beyond. We have completed multiple projects and trials to date with the Voraxial Separators (both offshore platforms and onshore production facilities) including units to PDVSA, Occidental, Transocean, Tetra Technologies, ConocoPhillips, GE, Sinopec, and the US Navy. We are in dialogue with other companies to conduct similar projects in 2016.
We also believe that our technology could have a significant impact on oil spill recovery. Following the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico we were included in British Petroleum RAT (Rapid Attack Team) Pack program. The "RAT Pack" program is a fleet of local commercial, shallow draft, nimble and fast moving vessels operating under the Vessels of Opportunity program.
2
During 2010, we finalized the development of the Submersible Voraxial Separator for oil spill recovery, which enables the operator to separate oil from water in the ocean. By conducting the separation in the ocean, management believes that vessels can skim ten times more oil since the amount of water collected in a vessel's holding tank is reduced by up to 90%. The collected oil will be discharged into a holding tank while the clean water remains in the ocean. This differs substantially from the current methods of skimming large volumes of oil/water mixture and then conducting the separation on vessel. Implementing this new method enables the vessels to process significantly more volume of skimmed oil/water mixture, collect more oil, capture a higher concentration of oil and remain in operation longer. We filed three patents related to oil spill recovery.
We have also developed a turnkey system can be utilized in multiple niche applications in the oil industry including produced water, deck water drainage, slopwater, FPSO (floating, production, storage and offloading) and refinery markets. The system integrates the Voraxial Separator as a bulk separator, coalescers to increase the droplet size of the dispersed oil and filters for the secondary process for polishing. The system can also include other equipment such as flow meters, turbidity meters, oil monitors and chemical injection ports. We believe the turnkey system will provide the oil industry with a compact and effective separation system. The Voraxial's small footprint, low energy requirements and separation quality coupled with unique filtration equipment for secondary treatment provides the customer with a complete turnkey package that meets the most stringent discharge levels such as OSPAR (North Sea countries <30mg/ltr) and United States 40 CFR435 (<29 mg/ltr). We have shipped various models of this system.
Voraxial® Separator
The Voraxial Separator is a continuous flow turbo machine that generates a strong centrifugal force, a vortex, capable of separating light and heavy liquids, such as oil and water, or any other combination of liquids and solids at extremely high flow rates. As the fluid passes through the machine, the Voraxial Separator accomplishes this separation through the creation of a vortex. In liquid/liquid and liquid/solid mixtures, this vortex causes the heavier compounds to gravitate to the outside of the flow and the lighter elements to move to the center where an inner core is formed. The liquid stream processed by the machine is divided into separate streams of heavier and lighter liquids and solids. As a result of this process, separation is achieved.
The benefits of the Voraxial include:
-
|
High volume / small footprint
|
-
|
No Pressure drop requirement
|
-
|
High G force
|
-
|
Treats a wide range of flows, even slugging flows
|
-
|
Handles fluctuation in flow rates without any adjustments
|
-
|
Handles fluctuation in contaminates without any adjustments
|
-
|
Separation of 2 or 3 components simultaneously
|
-
|
Non-clogging - open rotor assembly
|
-
|
Low maintenance with ease of operation and installation
|
-
|
Can operate dry
|
-
|
Since there is no pressure drop, there is very little wear caused by sand
|
The Voraxial Separator is a self-contained, non-clogging device that can be powered by an electric motor, diesel engine or by hydraulic power generation. Further, the Voraxial Separator's scalability allows it to be utilized in a variety of industries and to process various amounts of liquid. The following are the various sizes and the corresponding capacity range:

The Voraxial Separator can transfer various liquids in either direction by reversing the machine's rotation. We currently maintain an inventory of various models of the Voraxial Separator.
Management believes that our Voraxial Separator offers substantial applications on a cost-effective basis, including: oil exploration & production, oil remediation services, municipal wastewater treatment, bilge water purification, food processing waste treatment and numerous other industrial production and environmental remediation processes. We also believe that the quality of the water separated from the contaminant is good enough to recycle back into the process stream (back into the plant) or discharge to the environment. As clean water becomes less available to the ever-increasing world population, this technology may become more valuable.
The Market
The need for effective and cost efficient wastewater treatment and separation technology is global in scale. Moreover, virtually every industry requires some type of separation process either during the manufacturing process, prior to treatment or discharge of wastewater into the environment, for general clean up, or emergency response capability. Separation processes, however, are largely unknown to the average consumer. These processes are deeply integrated in almost all industrial processes from oil to wastewater to manufacturing. Management believes that the Voraxial technology has applications in most, if not all major separation industries. The unique characteristics of the Voraxial allow it to be utilized either as a stand-alone unit or within an existing system to provide a more efficient and cost effective way to handle the separation needs of the customer. We believe the Voraxial Separator can result in a cost savings and other benefits to the customer. These benefits result in and include:
●
|
A reduction in water and energy usage,
|
●
|
Requires no pressure drop to perform separation,
|
●
|
Less space needed to implement the Voraxial Separator, the Voraxial Separator weights less than existing systems,
|
●
|
A reduction time to process and separate the fluids, allowing the customer to be more efficient,
|
●
|
Creation of more efficient and faster process to treat water to increase the overall productivity of the end-user,
|
●
|
Fewer employees needed to operate the system, and
|
●
|
Reduction of ongoing maintenance and servicing costs.
|
We believe that we are the only front-end solution for the separation industry that can offer increased productivity while reducing the physical space and energy required to operate the unit. These advantages translate into the potential for substantial operating cost efficiencies that would increase the profitability of the solution's end user. The Voraxial's unique characteristic to conduct separation without a pressure loss allows the unit to be installed in locations other technologies cannot. For instance another separation technology in the oil industry called a hydrocyclone requires a significant pressure loss to perform separation. We believe this characteristic gives our customers a more practical way to achieve separation.
If, as we expect, environmental regulations, both domestically and internationally, become more stringent, companies will be required to more effectively treat their wastewater prior to discharge. We believe this offers a great opportunity for the Company as the Voraxial Separator can be utilized in most separation applications to significantly increase the efficiency of the separation processes while simultaneously reduce the cost to the end-user.
Management believes that the oil industry, and more specifically the produced water market within this industry, represents a great opportunity for significant sales growth for the Voraxial Separator. The produced water market is worldwide and the need for effective produced water (oil/water) separation is a major issue for both offshore and land-based oil production facilities. The ability to efficiently separate produced water waste streams (oil and water) has enormous economical and environmental consequences for the oil production industry. Produced water comprises over 98% of the total waste volume generated by the oil and gas industry, making it the largest volume waste stream associated with oil and gas production.
Oil reservoirs frequently contain large volumes of water and as oil wells mature (the oil field becomes depleted), the amount of produced water increases. In the continental US, it is estimated that 7-10 barrels of water is produced for each barrel of recovered oil. According to the Argonne National Laboratory 2007 White Paper, "approximately 15 to 20 billion bbl (barrels; 1 bbl = 42 U.S. gallons) of produced water are generated each year in the United States. This is equivalent to a volume of 1.7 to 2.3 billion gallons per day." Worldwide, the total amount of produced water generated, excluding the United States, is approximately 50 billion barrels (approximately 6 billion gallons per day). Produced water volumes will continue to increase as oil wells mature.
4
The necessity to process and efficiently separate high volumes of liquids coupled with the more stringent environmental regulations worldwide is increasing the demand for the Voraxial Separator. The Voraxial Separator provides a cost effective way to separate large volumes of produced or re-injection water for both on-land and offshore production facilities. The Voraxial provides superior separation while decreasing the amount of space, energy and weight to conduct the separation. In addition to oil separation, the Voraxial can also perform solid (sand and grit) extraction, which prevents production damage by increasing the life of the well.
Manufacturing
The Voraxial Separator is currently manufactured and assembled at our Fort Lauderdale, Florida facilities. The Company subcontracts some parts of the Voraxial Separator to local manufacturers.
Sources and availability of raw materials
The materials needed to manufacture our Voraxial Separator have been provided by leading companies in the precision equipment industry including Motion Industries, MSC, and Baldor Electric Co., among other suppliers. We do not have any long term contracts with these entities. We do not anticipate any shortage of component parts.
Inventory
Other than our Voraxial® Separators, we maintain a limited inventory of finished parts until we receive a customer order. We currently have various models of the Voraxial Separator in inventory, which may include certain models located at third party facilities on a trial basis.
Marketing
Management continues to implement a sales and marketing program, that includes independent sales representatives, relationships with oil service companies, engineering firms and attending trade shows, to stimulate awareness of the Voraxial Separator. Management is developing relationships with oil service companies and representatives to promote the Voraxial to oil industry customers. We have presented the Voraxial Separator at several prominent trade shows in the past two fiscal years and have been recognized by various organizations. The Company plans to exhibit the Voraxial Separator at additional tradeshows in 2016.
Intellectual property
We currently hold several patents pertaining to the Voraxial® Separator and are continually working on developing other patents. The Company owns United States Patent #6,248,231 and #5,904,840. Patent #6,248,231 was registered in 2001 for Apparatus with Voraxial® Separator and Analyzer. Patent #5,904,840 is for Apparatus for Accurate Centrifugal Separation of Miscible and Immiscible Media, which is for technology invented by our former president, Alberto DiBella, and registered in 1999. We also hold the trademark for Voraxial.
Product liability
Our business exposes us to possible claims of personal injury, death or property damage, which may result from the failure, or malfunction of any component or subassembly manufactured or assembled by us. We have product liability insurance. However, any product liability claim made against us may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations in light of our poor financial condition, losses and limited revenues. We have also obtained directors and officers, and general insurance coverage.

Research and development
We have spent $0 and $0, respectively, during years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, on product research and development. The Company has finalized the development of the Voraxial Separator. However, we continue to monitor ways to improve the Voraxial Separator and test the products for new applications.
Competition
We are subject to competition from a number of companies who have greater experience, research abilities, engineering capability and financial resources than we have. Although we believe our Voraxial Separator offers applications which accomplish better or similar results on a more cost-effective basis than existing products, other products have, in some instances, attained greater market and regulatory acceptance. These competitors include, but are not limited to Westfalia and AlfaLaval.
Employees
We currently have five employees. All of our employees work full-time. None of our employees are members of a union. We believe that our relationship with our employees is favorable. We intend to add additional employees in the upcoming year, including managers, sales representatives and field technical engineers.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data
Information not required by small reporting company.
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
General
Management's discussion and analysis contains various forward-looking statements. These statements consist of any statement other than a recitation of historical fact and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate" or "continue" or use of negative or other variations or comparable terminology. We caution that these statements are further qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements that these forward-looking statements are necessarily speculative, and there are certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from those referred to in such forward-looking statements.
Year ended December 31, 2015 compared to year ended December 31, 2014
Revenue
We continued to focus our efforts and resources to the manufacturing, assembling, marketing and selling of the Voraxial Separator. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015 increased by $514,563 to $1,091,343 or approximately 89% from $576,780 for the year ended December 31, 2014. We believe the increase in revenues corresponds to the increase customer interests and market awareness for the Voraxial. In the past several years we have been recognized by various oil and gas industry organizations and have participated in conferences and
7
tradeshows which have assisted in increasing market awareness. We believe the dissemination of data from previously installed Voraxials is also creating an increase awareness and demand for the Voraxial. We continue to build relationships with oil services companies, representatives and oil exploration and production companies and believe these relationships will increase revenues. The majority of revenues in 2015 and 2014 were a result of sales of the Voraxial Separator and auxiliary equipment and parts, and the remaining revenues were from lease orders and trials for customers interested in buying the Voraxial Separator. The increase in revenues in 2015 was the result of additional sales. We are pursuing projects in multiple industries including oil exploration and production, sewage, oil spill and wastewater. The drop in oil prices may delay certain projects and decrease revenue potential in the near term. We believe we have increased the exposure and awareness of the Voraxial Separator through our marketing programs and expect to increase revenues from the sale and lease of the Voraxial Separator once oil prices and capital expenditures within the oil explorations and production sector recovers.
Cost of goods sold increased to $448,220 for the year ended December 31, 2015 from $178,992 during the year ended December 31, 2014 or an increase of $269,228 or approximately 150%. The majority increase in cost of goods sold was directly related to our increase in revenues.
Costs and expenses
Total costs and expenses decreased by approximately 20% or $219,655 to $898,525 for the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to $1,118,180 for the year ended December 31, 2014. Our cost decreased primarily due to a non-cash decrease in consulting and payroll expense as discussed below during 2014. The decrease was partially offset by an inventory impairment of $112,609 during 2015.
General and administrative expenses
General and Administrative expenses decreased by approximately 2% or $7,841 to $442,861 for the year ended December 31, 2015 from $450,702 for the year ended December 31, 2014. Our general and administrative expenses, which have remained fairly consistent for 2015 as compared to 2014, primarily consist of rent, travel, insurance, professional fees and other general overhead expenses.
Consulting and Payroll Expenses
Consulting expenses decreased by approximately 99% or $127,344 to $995 for the year ended December 31, 2015 from $128,339 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to non-cash expenses associated with the repricing of options to consultants and employees in 2014. Payroll expense decreased by 16% or $84,470 to $454,669 for the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to $539,139 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease reflects the fluctuations in employee overtime.
Liquidity and capital resources
At December 31, 2015, we had working capital deficiency of $1,586,075, cash of $73,713 and an accumulated deficit of $16,523,671. For the year ended December 31, 2015, we had a net loss of $275,421. Operating at a loss for the year negatively impacted our cash position. We believe that including our current cash resources and anticipated revenue to be generated by sales and/or leases of our Voraxial Separators, we will have sufficient resources to continue business operations for the next twelve months. To the extent that these resources are not sufficient to sustain current operating activities, we may need to seek additional capital, or adjust our operating plan accordingly.
Continuing losses
We may be unable to continue as a going concern, given our limited operations and revenues and our significant losses to date. Consequently, our working capital may not be sufficient and our operating costs may exceed those experienced in our prior years. In light of these recent developments, we may be unable to continue as a going concern.
The Company has experienced net losses, has a working capital and stockholders' deficit. There is no assurance that the Company's developmental and marketing efforts will be successful, that the Company will ever have commercially accepted products, or that the Company will achieve significant revenues. If the Company is unable to successfully commercialize its Voraxial Separator, it is unlikely that the Company could continue its business. Therefore, substantial doubt exists about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The
8
Company may require the infusion of capital until operations become profitable. During 2016, the Company may seek additional capital in the event it is unable to increase sales of the Voraxial Separator or continue to restrict expenses. If we fail to raise additional funds when needed, or do not have sufficient cash flows from sales, we may be required to scale back or cease operations, sell or liquidate our assets and possibly seek bankruptcy protection. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Note C of the Notes to Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. Certain of these significant accounting policies are considered to be critical accounting policies, as defined below.
A critical accounting policy is defined as one that is both material to the presentation of our financial statements and requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments that could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Specifically, critical accounting estimates have the following attributes: 1) we are required to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time of the estimate; and 2) different estimates we could reasonably have used, or changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, would have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be applicable and reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. These changes have historically been minor and have been included in the consolidated financial statements as soon as they became known. Based on a critical assessment of our accounting policies and the underlying judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, management believes that our consolidated financial statements are fairly stated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and present a meaningful presentation of our financial condition and results of operations. We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives its revenue from the sale and short-term rental of the Voraxial Separator. The Company presents revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) 605 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements". Under Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, revenue is realized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC, did not, or are not believed by management, to have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial statements.

Risk Factors
Our independent auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our independent auditors have included in their audit report an explanatory paragraph that states that our continuing losses from operations raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We have not yet generated significant revenues from the Voraxial Separator. The revenues and income potential of our business and the markets of our separation technology are unproven. We have incurred operating losses since our inception, and we will continue to incur net losses until we can produce sufficient revenues to cover our costs. At December 31, 2015, we had an accumulated deficit of $16,523,671 including a net loss of $275,420 for the year ended December 31, 2015. Even if we achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase our profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.
Our ability to generate future revenues will depend on a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include the rate of market acceptance of our products, competitive efforts, and general economic trends. Due to these factors, we cannot anticipate with any degree of certainty what our revenues will be in future periods. You have limited historical financial data and operating results with which to evaluate our business and our prospects.
We have been limited by insufficient capital, and we may continue to be so limited.
In the past, we have lacked the required capital to market the Voraxial Separator. Our inability to raise the funding or to otherwise finance our capital needs could adversely affect our financial condition and our results of operations, and could prevent us from implementing our business plan.
We may seek to raise capital through public and private equity offerings, debt financing or collaboration, and strategic alliances. Such financing may not be available when we need it or may not be available on terms that are favorable to us. If we raise additional capital through the sale of our equity securities, your ownership interest will be diluted and the terms of the financing may adversely affect your holdings or rights as a stockholder. If we fail to raise additional funds when needed, or do not have sufficient cash flows from sales, we may be required to scale back or cease operations, sell or liquidate our assets and possibly seek bankruptcy protection.
Revenues from four customers accounted for approximately 94% of total revenues during 2015 and revenues from two customers accounted for approximately 83% of total revenues during 2014. We do not have any contracts with these customers. If these customers fail to order additional products or we are unable to attract new customers, it could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
If our products do not achieve and maintain market acceptance, our business will not be successful.
Even though our product is successfully developed, our success and growth will depend upon its acceptance by various potential users of our product. Acceptance will be a function of our product being more cost effective as compared to currently existing or future technologies. If our product does not achieve market acceptance, our business will not be successful. In addition, even if our product achieves market acceptance, we may not be able to maintain that market acceptance over time if new products or technologies are introduced that are more favorably received than our product or render our products obsolete.
If we do not develop sales and marketing capabilities or arrangements successfully, we will not be able to commercialize our product successfully.
We have limited sales and marketing experience. We may market and sell our product through a direct sales force or through other arrangements with third parties, including co-promotion arrangements. Since we may market and sell any product we successfully develop through a direct sales force, we will need to hire and train qualified sales personnel.
10
Our market is subject to intense competition. If we are unable to compete effectively, our product may be rendered non-competitive or obsolete.
We are engaged in a segment of the water filtration industry that is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Many large companies, academic institutions, governmental agencies, and other public and private research organizations are pursuing the development of technology that can be used for the same purposes as our product. We face, and expect to continue to face, intense and increasing competition, as new products enter the market and advanced technologies become available. We believe that a significant number of products are currently under development and will become available in the future that may address the water filtration segment of the market. If other products are successfully developed, it may be marketed before our product.
Our competitors' products may be more effective, or more effectively marketed and sold, than any of our products. Many of our competitors have:
●
|
significantly greater financial, technical and human resources than we have and may be better equipped to discover, develop, manufacture and commercialize products; and
|
●
|
more extensive experience in marketing water treatment products.
|
Competitive products may render our products obsolete or noncompetitive before we can recover the expenses of developing and commercializing our product. Furthermore, the development of new technologies and products could render our product noncompetitive, obsolete, or uneconomical.
As we evolve from a company primarily involved in design and development to one also involved in commercialization, we may encounter difficulties in managing our growth and expanding our operations successfully.
We may experience a period of rapid and substantial growth that may place a strain on our administrative and operational infrastructure, and we anticipate that continued growth could have a similar impact. As our product continues to enter and advance in the market, we will need to expand our development, regulatory, manufacturing, marketing and sales capabilities or contract with third parties to provide these capabilities for us. As our operations expand, we expect that we will need to manage additional relationships with various collaborative partners, suppliers, and other third parties.
If we are unable to adequately protect our technology, or if we infringe the rights of others, we may not be able to defend our markets or to sell our product.
Our success may depend in part on our ability to continue and expand our patent protection both in the United States and in other countries for our product. Due to evolving legal standards relating to the patentability, validity, and enforceability of patents covering our product and the scope of claims made under these patents, our ability to obtain and enforce patents is uncertain and involves complex legal and factual questions. Accordingly, rights under any issued patents may not provide us with sufficient protection for our product or provide sufficient protection to afford us a commercial advantage against competitive products or processes.
Our success may also depend in part on our ability to operate without infringing the proprietary rights of third parties. The manufacture, use, or sale of our product may infringe on the patent rights of others. Likewise, third parties may challenge or infringe upon our existing or future patents. Proceedings involving our patents or patent applications or those of others could result in adverse decisions regarding:
●
|
the patentability of our inventions relating to our product; and/or
|
●
|
the enforceability, validity, or scope of protection offered by our patents relating to our product.
|
Litigation may be necessary to enforce the patents we own and have applied for (if they are awarded), copyrights, or other intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets, to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others, or to defend against claims of infringement. This type of litigation could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources and could result in injunctions preventing us from distributing certain products. Such claims could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
We are dependent on key personnel.
We are dependent upon the availability and the continued performance of the services of John A. DiBella. The loss of the services of John A. DiBella could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, the availability of skilled personnel is extremely important to our growth strategy
11
and our failure to attract and retain such personnel could have a material, adverse effect on us. We do not currently maintain any key man life insurance covering Mr. DiBella or any of our employees.
Our operations are subject to governmental approvals and regulations and environmental compliance.
Our operations are subject to extensive and frequently changing federal, state, and local laws and substantial regulation by government agencies, including the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the United States Occupational Safety and Health administration (OSHA) and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Among other matters, these agencies regulate the operation, handling, transportation and disposal of hazardous materials used by us during the normal course of our operations, govern the health and safety of our employees and certain standards and licensing requirements for our aerospace components that we contract manufacture. We are subject to significant compliance burden from this extensive regulatory framework, which may substantially increase our operational costs.
We believe that we have been and are in compliance with environmental requirements and believe that we have no liabilities under environmental requirements. Further, we have not spent any funds specifically on compliance with environmental laws. However, some risk of environmental liability is inherent in the nature of our business, and we might incur substantial costs to meet current or more stringent compliance, cleanup, or other obligations pursuant to environmental requirements in the future. This could result in a material adverse effect to our results of operations and financial condition.
Our business has a substantial risk of product liability claims. If we are unable to obtain appropriate levels of insurance, a product liability claim against us could adversely affect our business.
Our business exposes us to possible claims of personal injury, death, or property damage, which may result from the failure, or malfunction of any component or subassembly manufactured or assembled by us. While we have product liability insurance, any product liability claim made against us may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations in light of our poor financial condition, losses and limited revenues.
We currently have limited authorized, but unissued shares of capital stock.
As of December 31, 2015, the Company has approximately 9,285,503 shares of authorized, but unissued Common Stock. In addition, the Company has reserved approximately 13,465,000 shares for outstanding options. Therefore the Company has limited shares of common stock which otherwise could be sold to meet future financing needs and does not have a sufficient number of shares reserved in the event of the exercise of all of the Company's outstanding options.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") that are designed to be effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
12
The Company's management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial (and principal accounting) Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2015. Based upon that evaluation and the identification of the material weakness in the Company's internal control over financial reporting as described below under "Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting," the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting of the Company. Management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015 based on the 2013 criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2015, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles because of the Company's limited resources and limited number of employees.
To mitigate the current limited resources and limited employees, we rely heavily on direct management oversight of transactions, along with the use of legal and accounting professionals. As we grow, we expect to increase our number of employees, which will enable us to implement adequate segregation of duties within the internal control framework.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Directors and executive officers
The following sets forth the names and ages of our officers and directors. Our directors are elected annually by our shareholders, and the officers are appointed annually by our board of directors.

Director
|
John A. DiBella has served as an employee of our Company since January 2002 and a member of the Board of Directors since August 2006. Since November 2011 he has served as chief executive officer and chief financial officer. From 2000 through January 2002 Mr. DiBella provided consulting services to our Company. Mr. DiBella was promoted from Chief Operating Officer to President in November 2011. Mr. DiBella co-founded and served as President of PBCM, a financial management company located in New Jersey from 1997 to 1999. Prior to co-founding PBCM, Mr. DiBella worked for Donaldson, Lufkin and Jenrette, a NYSE member firm.
Raynard Veldman has served as a director of the Company since August 2014. He served as vice president for Magnablend, Inc., a custom chemical blending and manufacturing company from February 2012 to July 2014. From April 2001 through February 2012 he served as business and product manager for Weatherford, Inc. in their Engineered Chemistry Division. He has over 30 years of experience in the domestic and international oil and gas industry. Mr. Veldman has a M.S. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Houston and a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Texas. He has also periodically served as a consultant to the Company since 2009.
Board of Directors and Committees
During the year ended December 31, 2015, our board of directors held 4 meetings.
To date, we have not established an audit committee. Due to our financial position, we have been unable to attract qualified independent directors to serve on our board. Our board of directors, consisting of John A. DiBella and Raynard Veldman, reviews the professional services provided by our independent auditors, the independence of our auditors from our management, our annual financial statements and our system of internal accounting controls. None of the board members are considered a "financial expert."
Because the board of directors consists of only two members, the board has not delegated any of its functions to committees. The entire board of directors acts as our audit committee as permitted under Section 3(a)(58)(B) of the Exchange Act. We do not have any independent directors who would qualify as an audit committee financial expert. We believe that it has been, and may continue to be, impractical to recruit such a director unless and until we are significantly larger.
The Company has one independent director, Raynard Veldman. Mr. Veldman is considered "independent" as defined under Nasdaq Marketplace Rules.
Code of Ethics
During the year ended December 31, 2003 we adopted a code of ethics. The code of ethics was filed with the Company's Form 10-KSB annual report for the year ended December 31, 2003. The code of ethics may be obtained by contacting the Company's executive offices. The code applies to our officers and directors. The code provides written standards that are designed to deter wrongdoing and promote: (i) honest and ethical conduct; (ii) full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure; (iii) compliance with applicable laws and regulations; (iv) promote reporting of internal violations of the code; and (v) accountability for the adherence to the code.
14
Although we do not have a formal policy regarding communications with our board of directors, shareholders may communicate with the board by writing to us at Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc., 821 N.W. 57th Place, Fort Lauderdale, Florida 33309, Attention: Mr. John A. DiBella. Shareholders who would like their submission directed to a member of the Board may so specify, and the communication will be forwarded, as appropriate.
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of our outstanding common stock to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock. These persons are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of these reports they file. To our knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of reports furnished to us, Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with on a timely basis for the period which this report relates.
Item 11. Executive compensation
The table below sets forth compensation for the past two years awarded to, earned by or paid to our chief executive officer and our two most highly compensated executive officers other than our chief executive officer who were serving as executive officers at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 (the "Named Executives").

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors of
Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc. and subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' deficiency and cash flows for each of the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly in all material respects, the financial position of Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note B to the financial statements, the Company has a net loss of $275,420 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and a working capital deficit of $1,586,075 and stockholders' deficit of $1,542,997 as of December 31, 2015. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note B. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2015 and 2014
NOTE A - ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc. (the "Company") is a provider of environmental and industrial separation technology. The Company has developed, and now manufactures and sells its patented technology, the Voraxial® Separator, a technology that efficiently separates liquid/liquid, liquid/solid or liquid/liquid/solid fluid streams with distinct specific gravities. Current and potential commercial applications and markets include oil exploration and production, oil refineries, oil spill, mining, manufacturing, waste-to-energy and food processing industry.
Florida Precision Aerospace, Inc. (FPA) is the wholly- owned subsidiary of the Company and is used to manufacture, assemble and test the Voraxial Separator.
NOTE B - GOING CONCERN
The Company has experienced recurring losses and a working capital and stockholders' deficit as of December 31, 2015. The Company has a net loss of $275,420 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and a working capital deficit of $1,586,075 and shareholders' deficiency of $1,542,997 as of December 31, 2015. There is a substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. There is no assurance that the Company's sales and marketing efforts will be successful enough to achieve a level of revenue sufficient to provide cash inflows to sustain operations; however the Company has begun commercializing the Voraxial and is experiencing an increase in customer interest that management believes will continue in 2016. The Company will continue to require the infusion of capital until operations become profitable. During the remainder of 2016 the Company may seek capital for growth and increasing sales of the Voraxial Separator. As a result of the above, there is substantial doubt about the entities ability to continue as a going concern and the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If we fail to raise additional funds when needed, or do not have sufficient cash flows from sales, we may be required to scale back or cease operations, sell or liquidate our assets and possibly seek bankruptcy protection. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE C - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent company, Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Florida Precision Aerospace, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the valuation of deferred tax assets, the allowances for doubtful accounts, allowance for inventory impairment and estimated warranty costs. Actual results may differ.
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives its revenue from the sale and short-term rental of the Voraxial Separator. The Company presents revenue in accordance with FASB new codification of "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements". Under Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, revenue is realized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
Revenues that are generated from sales of equipment are typically recognized upon shipment. Our standard agreements generally do not include customer acceptance or post shipment installation provisions. However, if such provisions have been included or there is an uncertainty about customer order, revenue is deferred until we have evidence of customer order and all terms of the agreement have been complied with. As of December 31, 2015 there was $249,228 of deposits from customers.
F-7
Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2015 and 2014
The Company recognizes revenue from the short term rental of equipment, ratably over the life of the agreement, which is usually three to twelve months.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. The company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowance when there is a doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, customer's historical payment history, and its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collections. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company has $60,254 in the allowance for doubtful accounts.
Fair Value of Instruments
The carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, inventory, accounts payable and accrued expenses at December 31, 2015 and 2014, approximate their fair value because of their relatively short-term nature.
ASC 820 "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosures of information regarding the fair value of certain financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the value. For purpose of this disclosure, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale of liquidation.
The Company accounts for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value is observable in the market. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:
Level 1—inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. We have no Level 1 instruments as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.
Level 2—inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques (e.g. the Black-Scholes model) for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Where applicable, these models project future cash flows and discount the future amounts to a present value using market-based observable inputs including interest rate curves, foreign exchange rates, and forward and spot prices for currencies and commodities. We have no Level 2 instruments as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.
Level 3—inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management's estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques, including option pricing models and discounted cash flow models. We have no Level 3 instruments as of December 31, 2015 and 2014.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash balances with various financial institutions. Balances at these institutions may at times exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporate limits.
Inventory
Inventory consists of components for the Voraxial Separator and is priced at lower of cost or market. Inventory may include units being rented on a short term basis or components held by third parties in connection with pilot programs as part of the continuing evaluation by such third parties as to the effectiveness and usefulness of the service to be incorporated into their respective operations. The third parties do not have a contractual obligation to purchase the equipment. The Company maintains the title and risk of loss. Therefore, these units are included in the inventory of the Company. As of December 31, 2015, there was 1 unit held by third parties.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2015 and 2014
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of maintenance and repairs is expensed to operations as incurred. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful life of the assets (5-10 years). Gains and losses recognized from the sales or disposal of assets is the difference between the sales price and the recorded cost less accumulated depreciation less costs of disposal.
Net Loss Per Share
The Company follows ASC 260 "Earnings per share" to calculate its net loss per share. Basic and diluted loss per share has been computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The warrants and stock options have been excluded from the calculation since they would be anti-dilutive.
Such equity instruments may have a dilutive effect in the future and include the following potential common shares:
|
2015
|
2014 |
Stock options
|
13,465,000 |
13,465,000
|
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development costs, which includes travel expenses, consulting fees, subcontractors and salaries are expensed as incurred. There was $0 and $0 in research and development costs during December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expenses. There was $18,375 and $21,083 in advertising costs during December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company adopted ASC Topic 718 formerly Statement of Financial Account Standard (SFAS) No. 123(R) effective January 1, 2006. This statement requires compensation expense relating to share-based payments to be recognized in net income using a fair-value measurement method. Under the fair value method, the estimated fair value of awards is charged to income on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period.
Equity instruments issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees. In general, the measurement date is when either a (a) performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
F-9
Enviro Voraxial Technology, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2015 and 2014
carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. Determination of recoverability of assets to be held and used is by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.
Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. The Company did not have any impairments of long-lived assets in December 31, 2015 and 2014.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the Company's net loss or cash flows.
NOTE D – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In May 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance regarding revenue recognition under GAAP. This new guidance will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance, and is effective for public entities for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new guidance on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-12, "Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period." This ASU provides more explicit guidance for treating share-based payment awards that require a specific performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period as a performance condition. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015. The Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern", which requires management to evaluate, at each annual and interim reporting period, whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued and provide related disclosures. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016 and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-15 is not expected to have a material effect on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE L – INCOME TAX
At December 31, 2015 and 2014 we had deferred tax assets principally arising from the net operating loss carry forwards for income tax purposes multiplied by an approximate expected rate of 38%. As management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that we will realize the benefit of the deferred tax assets, a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax asset has been established at December 31, 2015 and 2014.
The significant components of the deferred tax asset at December 31, 2015 and 2014 were as follows:

The Company has made a 100% valuation allowance of the deferred income tax asset at December 31, 2015, as it is not expected that the deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company has a net operating loss carryforward of $12,140,349 available to offset future taxable income through 2035.
The Company's federal income tax returns for the three years ended December 31, 2015 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Services as of December 31, 2015.
