REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
AND
CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
This
prospectus and the documents incorporated into this prospectus by reference
include “forward-looking statements.” Although we believe that the
expectations reflected in those forward-looking statements are reasonable, we
cannot be sure that these expectations will prove to be correct.
In
addition, Magnum d’Or Resources, Inc. (“Magnum”) and its
management may make other written or oral communications from time to time that
contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements,
including statements about industry trends, management’s future expectations and
other matters that do not relate strictly to historical facts, are based on
assumptions by management, and are often identified by such forward-looking
terminology as “expect,” “look,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “seek,”
“may,” “will,” “trend,” “target,” and “goal” or similar statements or variations
of such terms. Forward-looking statements may include, among other
things, statements about Magnum’s confidence in its strategies and its
expectations about financial performance, market growth, market and regulatory
trends and developments, acquisitions and divestitures, new technologies,
services and opportunities and earnings.
Forward-looking
statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, which change over
time, are based on management’s expectations and assumptions at the time the
statements are made, and are not guarantees of future
results. Management’s expectations and assumptions, and the continued
validity of the forward-looking statements, are subject to change due to a broad
range of factors affecting the national and global economies, the equity, debt,
currency and other financial markets, as well as factors specific to Magnum and
its subsidiaries.
Actual
outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed in our
forward-looking statements and from our historical financial results due to the
factors discussed elsewhere in this prospectus or disclosed in our other SEC
filings. Forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as
representing our expectations or beliefs as of any date subsequent to the time
this prospectus is filed with the SEC. Magnum undertakes no
obligation to revise the forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus
to reflect events after the time it is filed with the SEC. The
factors discussed herein are not intended to be a complete summary of all risks
and uncertainties that may affect our businesses. Although we strive
to monitor and mitigate risk, we cannot anticipate all potential economic,
operational and financial developments that may adversely impact our operations
and our financial results.
Forward-looking
statements should not be viewed as predictions, and should not be the primary
basis upon which investors evaluate Magnum. Any investor in Magnum
should consider all risks and uncertainties disclosed in our SEC filings
described below under the heading “Where You Can Find More Information,” all of
which are accessible on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

Business
Overview
Magnum
d’Or Resources, Inc. (the “Company” or “Magnum”) was
incorporated on September 3, 1999 under the laws of the State of
Nevada. Since its inception, the Company has evolved through several
transitions to its present state. During this evolution, the Company
operated as an internet information company, a mining exploration company, and a
business acquisition company.
In
December 2006, the Company’s then outstanding preferred stock, and thus voting
control of the Company, was acquired by an individual for the express purpose of
pursuing the Company’s current business strategy of producing high quality
rubber powder and thermoplastics.
In May
2008, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Recyclage Magnum Canada
(“RMC”), into
which the Company subsequently transferred all production equipment for the
purpose of establishing its first North American production
facility. The facility is located in Magog, Quebec, Canada for
strategic geographical and commercial purposes. Equipment
installation and testing was performed throughout the summer and fall of 2008,
and production activities commenced at the Magog, Quebec facility during
November of 2008.
In June
2009, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary in the State of Nevada titled
Magnum Recycling USA (“MRUSA”) for the
purpose of establishing the Company’s first operations in the United
States. In August 2009, MRUSA acquired a tire disposal
facility/monofill located in Hudson, Colorado to establish a centralized U.S.
production and distribution point.
In
October 2009, the Company formed another wholly-owned subsidiary, Magnum
Engineering (“MEI”) for the express
purpose of providing rubber recycling equipment engineering and consulting
related services to the Company and to other interested third
parties.
The
Company is currently engaged in operations to provide modified sources of
recycled rubber products, reconstituted rubber derivatives, and high quality
rubber powders to various distributors and manufacturers.
About
This Offering
On
December 21, 2009, Magnum entered into a definitive purchase agreement with
institutional investors to place 9% Senior Secured Convertible Notes (the “Notes”) due December
2010 totaling $3.5 million in gross proceeds before fees and expenses (the
“Transaction”). The
Transaction closed on December 23, 2009 (the “Closing
Date”). The Notes mature December 1, 2010 and bear interest at
an annual rate of 9% payable quarterly in, at the Company’s option, cash or,
subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions, registered shares
of our Common Stock. In addition, at the option of the holder of each
Note, all or any part of the principal amount outstanding under each Note, plus
all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, is convertible at any time and from
time to time into shares of our Common Stock at the conversion price of $1.21
per share, subject to certain exercise limitations based on beneficial ownership
levels. In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company
issued Series A Warrants to purchase 2,169,424 shares of the Company’s Common
Stock, Series B Warrants to purchase 2,892,562 shares of the Company’s Common
Stock, and Series C Warrants to purchase 2,169,424 shares of the Company’s
Common Stock. The initial exercise price of each Series A Warrant,
Series B Warrant and Series C Warrant will be the same as the initial conversion
price under the Notes ($1.21 per share). This prospectus relates to
the resale of up to 13,464,884 shares of our Common Stock by the holders of the
Notes and Warrants upon conversion and exercise, respectively.
3
The
shares offered by this prospectus may be sold by the Selling Stockholders from
time to time in the open market, through negotiated transactions or otherwise at
market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at negotiated
prices. We will receive none of the proceeds from the sale of the
shares by the Selling Stockholders. We will bear all expenses of
registration incurred in connection with this offering, but all selling and
other expenses incurred by the Selling Stockholders will be borne by
them.
The
shares of Common Stock being offered by this prospectus covers the resale of
133% of the sum of (i) an aggregate of up to 2,892,562 shares issuable upon
conversion of the principal and accrued amount due on the Notes issued to
Selling Stockholders in the Transaction, and (ii) an aggregate of up to
7,231,410 shares issuable upon the exercise of Series A, B and C Warrants issued
in the Transaction.
The
number of shares being offered by this prospectus represents approximately
18.54% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock as of April 6,
2010. As of April 6, 2010, there are 72,626,212 shares of our
Common Stock issued and outstanding. The Company will not receive any
proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock by the Selling
Stockholders.

RISK
FACTORS
The
Company faces a number of significant risks associated with its current plan of
operations. These include the following:
4
Risks
Related to our Business
THE
COMPANY’S BUSINESS IS DIFFICULT TO EVALUATE BECAUSE THE COMPANY HAS A LIMITED
OPERATING HISTORY.
The
Company commenced production activities in November 2008, shipped its first
products in December 2008, and thereafter recognized its first operating
income. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had generated limited
revenues, and the development of our business plan will require substantial
capital expenditures. Our business could be subject to any or all of
the problems, expenses, delays and risks inherent in the establishment of a new
business enterprise, including, but not limited to limited capital resources,
possible delays in product development, possible cost overruns due to price and
cost increases in raw product and manufacturing processes, uncertain market
acceptance, and the inability to respond effectively to competitive developments
and to attract, retain and motivate qualified employees. There is
nothing at this time on which to base an assumption that our business operations
will prove to be successful or that we will ever be able to operate profitably,
and we have no track record of successful business activities, strategic
decision-making by management, fund-raising ability, and other factors that
would allow an investor to assess the likelihood that we will be successful in
developing a valid workable product. Therefore, there can be no
assurance that our business or products will be successful, that we will be able
to achieve or maintain profitable operations, or that we will not encounter
unforeseen difficulties that may deplete our capital resources more rapidly than
anticipated. There can be no assurance that we will achieve or
sustain profitability or positive cash flows from our operating
activities.
THE
COMPANY HAS NOT YET ACHIEVED ANY FINANCIAL SUCCESS, AND THE COMPANY HAS NOT YET
GENERATED SUFFICIENT OPERATING INCOME.
The
Company has not yet generated sufficient operating income, nor is there any
assurance that the Company will achieve future revenue levels and operating
efficiencies to support existing operations, generate positive cash flow from
operations or recover its investment in its property, plant and
equipment. The Company expects to show continued losses through the
second quarter of 2010, and there can be no assurance that such losses will not
continue thereafter. The success of the Company’s operations are
largely dependent upon its ability to establish and improve operating
efficiencies and overall production capacity, generate substantial sales
revenues and generate adequate cash flows from operations. In
addition, the Company has in the past and may again in the future encounter
unanticipated problems, including manufacturing, distribution and marketing
difficulties, some of which may be beyond the Company’s financial and technical
abilities to resolve. The failure to adequately address such
difficulties could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
prospects.
WE
HAVE NEVER GENERATED ANY SIGNIFICANT REVENUES, HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES, AND
CANNOT ASSURE YOU THAT WE WILL EVER BECOME OR REMAIN PROFITABLE.
We have
not yet generated any significant revenue from operations and, accordingly, we
have incurred net losses every year since our inception. To date, we
have dedicated most of our financial resources to general and administrative
expenses, and manufacturing, sales and marketing activities, and due to our
limited financial resources, we have not yet fully developed these
activities. Consequently, we will need to generate significant
additional revenue from financing activities to fund our operations until we can
fully commence manufacturing of our products, sales and marketing
activities. This has put a proportionate corresponding demand on
capital. Our ability to achieve profitability is dependent upon our
sales and marketing efforts, and our ability to manufacture and sell our
products. There can be no assurance that we will ever generate
revenues or that any revenues that may be generated will be sufficient for us to
become profitable or thereafter to maintain profitability. We may
also face unforeseen problems, difficulties, expenses or delays in implementing
our business plan.
5
WE
WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FUNDS THROUGH THE SALE OF OUR SECURITIES, WHICH REQUIRES
FAVORABLE MARKET CONDITIONS AND INTEREST IN OUR ACTIVITIES BY
INVESTORS. WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SELL OUR SECURITIES AND FUNDING MAY
NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR CONTINUED OPERATIONS.
We will
require substantial additional capital following the development and
implementation of our manufacturing process in order to market, arrange for the
manufacturing of, and sell our recycled rubber products. Because we
expect to have limited cash flow from operations during the next twelve months,
we will need to raise additional capital, which may be in the form of loans from
current stockholders and/or from public and private equity
offerings. Our ability to access capital will depend on our success
in implementing our business plan. It will also depend upon the
status of the capital markets at the time such capital is
sought. Should sufficient capital not be available, the
implementation of our business plan could be delayed and, accordingly, the
implementation of our business strategy would be adversely
affected. If we are unable to raise additional funds in the future,
we may have to cease all substantive operations. In such event it
would not be likely that investors would obtain a profitable return on their
investment or a return of their investment at all.
WE
HAVE BEEN THE SUBJECT OF A GOING CONCERN OPINION FROM OUR INDEPENDENT PUBLIC
ACCOUNTANTS, RAISING A SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A
GOING CONCERN.
Our
independent registered public accountants included an explanatory paragraph in
their audit report in connection with our financial statements for the fiscal
years ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 stating that because the Company had
recurring losses from operations, negative cash flows from operations and a
working capital deficit, there is substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern. These factors, along with others, may
indicate that we will be unable to continue as a going concern for a period of
twelve months or less. Reports of independent auditors questioning a
company’s ability to continue as a going concern are generally viewed
unfavorably by analysts and investors, and this report may make it difficult for
us to raise additional debt or equity financing necessary to continue the
development of our recycled rubber products, reconstituted rubber derivatives,
and high quality rubber powders business.
Our
continuation as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise additional
funds through private placements of equity and/or debt sufficient to pursue our
business plan, to meet our current obligations and to cover operating expenses
through September 30, 2010, our fiscal year end. There is no
assurance that we will be able to secure additional funding in the future, and
in the event we are unable to raise additional capital in the near future, it is
probable that any investment in the Company will be lost.
OUR
DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES ARE NOT ADEQUATE.
Our
management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and
procedures as of the end of our last fiscal year ended September 30,
2009. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the “Exchange
Act”)) are not adequate to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in SEC rules and forms.
The
Company does not have adequate personnel to provide required review of
day-to-day financial transactions and review of financial statement
disclosures. To remediate the control deficiencies, one of several
specific additional steps that the Company believes it must undertake is to
retain a consulting firm to, among other things, design and implement adequate
systems of accounting and financial statement disclosure controls to comply with
the applicable SEC requirements. There is no assurance that the
Company will be able to implement these plans in the future, if at
all.
6
SELLING
STOCKHOLDERS MAY COMPETE WITH THE COMPANY FOR BUYERS OF THE COMPANY’S SHARES OF
COMMON STOCK, MAKING IT POTENTIALLY MORE DIFFICULT FOR THE COMPANY TO RAISE
MONEY.
Selling
Stockholders who attempt to sell their shares of Common Stock pursuant to this
registration statement may compete with the Company to sell shares of our Common
Stock. As a result, the Company’s ability to raise funding by selling
shares may be inhibited by the competition presented by such Selling
Stockholders.
IF
THE COMPANY CHOOSES TO ACQUIRE OTHER ENTITIES IN THE FUTURE, IT MAY NOT BE ABLE
TO FIND POSSIBLE ACQUISITION CANDIDATES.
The
Company’s strategy includes investigating possible acquisition candidates that
complement its existing product line and geographic presence, while also
leveraging its purchasing power, brand management and capability and operating
efficiencies. However, potential competitors for acquisition
opportunities include larger companies with significantly greater financial
resources, and competition for the acquisition of businesses may result in
acquisitions on terms that prove to be less advantageous to the
Company. The Company’s financial capability to make acquisitions is
partially a function of its ability to access the debt and equity capital
markets. The Company is not currently investigating any possible
acquisition candidates, and there can be no assurance that the Company will find
attractive acquisition candidates in the future in the event it decides to
investigate such candidates, or that the Company will succeed in reducing the
costs and increasing the profitability of any business acquired in the
future.
THE
COMPANY MAY ENGAGE IN TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THE USE OF LEVERAGE, WHICH MAY
EXPOSE THE COMPANY TO SIGNIFICANT RISKS.
The
Company anticipates that it may incur substantial borrowings for the purpose of
purchasing inventory and equipment, and for financing the expansion and growth
of the Company. Any amounts borrowed will depend, among other things,
on the condition of financial markets. The purchase of equipment and
vehicles, and the expansion of our business on a leveraged basis generally can
be expected to be profitable only if they generate, at a minimum, sufficient
cash revenues to pay interest on, and to amortize, the related debt, to cover
operating expenses and to recover the equity investment. The use of
leverage, under certain circumstances, may provide a higher return to
shareholders but will cause the risk of loss to shareholders to be greater than
if the Company did not borrow, because fixed payment obligations must be met on
certain specified dates regardless of the amount of revenues derived by the
Company. If debt service payments are not made when due, the Company
may sustain the loss of its equity investment in the assets securing the debt as
a result of foreclosure by the secured lender. Interest payable on
Company borrowings, if any, may vary with the movement of the interest rates
charged by banks to their prime commercial customers. Any increase in
borrowing costs due to a rise in the “prime” or “base” rates may reduce the
amount of Company net income and available cash.
7
WE
RELY ON TRADE SECRET LAWS AND AGREEMENTS WITH OUR KEY EMPLOYEES AND OTHER THIRD
PARTIES TO PROTECT OUR PROPRIETARY RIGHTS, AND THESE LAWS OR AGREEMENTS MAY NOT
ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR RIGHTS.
The
Company has acquired license rights for its rubber products and recycling
processes, and may acquire or develop other products and processes that it
believes may be patentable. The Company’s success depends upon our
ability to protect our proprietary formulations and license
rights. We rely on a combination of trademark and trade secret laws,
nondisclosure and other contractual agreements with employees and third parties
to protect our proprietary formulations and trademarks. The steps we
take to protect our proprietary rights may not be adequate to protect
misappropriation of such rights, and third parties may independently develop
equivalent or superior formulations in spite of our efforts. We have
no patents, and existing trade secret and copyright laws provide only limited
protection. We may be subject to or may initiate interference
proceedings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, which can demand
significant financial and management resources. Although we believe
that our products and formulations do not infringe upon the proprietary rights
of others, it is possible that third parties will assert infringement claims
against us in the future. Litigation, which could result in
substantial costs and could divert our efforts, may be necessary to enforce our
intellectual property rights or to defend the Company against claimed
infringement of the rights of others. The failure to obtain necessary
licenses or other rights or litigation arising out of infringement claims could
have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company also seeks
to maintain the confidentiality of its proprietary rubber formula and production
processes which it believes are not patentable. However, the Company
can give no assurance that its confidentiality agreements will be enforced or
that competitors will not independently develop similar formulas or
processes.
IF
WE CANNOT SUCCESSFULLY COMPETE WITH EXISTING RUBBER RECYLCING COMPANIES THAT
HAVE GREATER RESOURCES THAN WE HAVE, OUR BUSINESS WILL NOT SURVIVE.
The crumb
rubber industry is highly competitive. Virtually all of the
manufacturers, distributors and marketers of recycled rubber products have
substantially greater management, financial, research and development, marketing
and manufacturing resources than we do. The Company faces competition
in all of its markets from large, national companies and smaller, regional
companies, as well as from individuals. Many of the Company’s
competitors are larger and have greater financial resources than the
Company. The Company from time to time will experience price pressure
in certain of its markets as a result of competitors’ promotional pricing
practices. Competition is based on product quality, functionality,
price, brand loyalty, effective promotional activities and the ability to
identify and satisfy emerging preferences.
ATTEMPTS
TO GROW OUR BUSINESS COULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON THE COMPANY.
Because
of our small size, we desire to grow rapidly in order to achieve certain
economies of scale. To the extent that rapid growth does occur, it
will place a significant strain on our financial, technical, operational and
administrative resources. Our planned growth will result in increased
responsibility for both existing and new management
personnel. Effective growth management will depend upon our ability
to integrate new personnel, to improve our operational, management and financial
systems and controls, to train, motivate and manage our employees, and to
increase our sources of recyclable rubber inventory and product
manufacturing. If we are unable to manage growth effectively, our
business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and
adversely affected. In addition, it is possible that no growth will
occur or that growth will not produce profits for the Company. The
Company’s success will, in part, be dependent upon the ability of the Company to
manage growth effectively.
8
UNCERTAINTY
AND ADVERSE CHANGES IN THE GENERAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS OF MARKETS IN WHICH WE
PARTICIPATE MAY NEGATIVELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.
Current
and future conditions in the economy have an inherent degree of
uncertainty. It is even more difficult to estimate growth or
contraction in various parts, sectors and regions of the economy, including the
rubber recycling markets in which we participate. As a result, it is
difficult to estimate the level of growth or contraction for the economy as a
whole. Adverse changes may occur as a result of soft global economic
conditions, rising oil prices, wavering consumer confidence, unemployment,
declines in stock markets, contraction of credit availability, or other factors
affecting economic conditions in general. These changes may
negatively affect the sales of our products, increase exposure to losses from
bad debts, increase the cost and decrease the availability of financing, or
increase costs associated with manufacturing and distributing our recycled
rubber products.
WE
HAVE NOT AND DO NOT ANTICIPATE PAYING DIVIDENDS IN THE FORESEEABLE
FUTURE.
We have
not paid any cash dividends to date with respect to our Common
Stock. We do not anticipate paying dividends on our Common Stock in
the foreseeable future since we will use all of our earnings, if any, to finance
the development of our operations.
OUR
QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS ARE LIKELY TO FLUCTUATE, WHICH MAY AFFECT OUR STOCK
PRICE.
Our
quarterly revenues, expenses, net sales, net income, operating results and gross
profit margins vary significantly from quarter to quarter. As a
result, our operating results may fall below the expectations of securities
analysts and investors in some quarters, which could result in a decrease in the
market price of our Common Stock. The reasons our quarterly results
may fluctuate include, among other factors, the following:
|
·
|
variations
in profit margins attributable to product
mix;
|
|
·
|
changes
in the general competitive and economic
conditions;
|
|
·
|
delays
in, or uneven timing in the delivery of, customer orders;
and
|
|
·
|
the
introduction of new products by us or our
competitors.
|
The
Company’s planned operating expenditures each quarter are based on sales
forecasts for the quarter, however period to period comparisons of our results
should not be relied on as indications of future performance. If
sales do not meet expectations in any given quarter, operating results for the
quarter may be materially and adversely affected.
IF
AND WHEN WE SELL OUR PRODUCTS, WE MAY BE LIABLE FOR PRODUCT LIABILITY
CLAIMS.
The
recycled rubber products that we are developing may expose us to potential
liability from personal injury or property damage claims by end-users of our
products. There is no assurance that the Company’s product liability
insurance will be adequate to protect us against the risk that in the future a
product liability claim or product recall could materially and adversely affect
our business. Inability to obtain and maintain sufficient insurance
coverage at an acceptable cost or otherwise to protect against potential product
liability claims could prevent or inhibit the commercialization of our
products. Moreover, even if we maintain adequate insurance, any
successful claim could materially and adversely affect our reputation and
prospects, and divert management’s time and attention. If we are sued
for any injury allegedly caused by our future products our liability could
exceed our total assets and our ability to pay the liability.
9
WE
DO NOT CARRY ANY BUSINESS INTERRUPTION INSURANCE FOR OUR PRODUCTION FACILITIES
OR INSURANCE THAT COVERS THE RISK OF LOSS OF OUR PRODUCTS IN
SHIPMENT.
The
Company believes that its success and future results of operations will be
substantially dependent upon its ability to provide valuable recycled rubber
products to its customers. As a result, any disruption of the
Company’s day-to-day operations could have a material adverse effect upon the
Company and any failure of the Company’s management and manufacturing systems,
distribution arrangements or communication systems could impair its ability to
receive and process customer orders and ship products on a timely
basis. Operation of our facilities involves many risks, including
equipment failures, natural disasters, industrial accidents, power outages,
labor disturbances and other business interruptions. We do not carry
any business interruption insurance, and there can be no assurance that such
insurance coverage, if obtained, would be sufficient to compensate for alleged
claims or losses that could occur. As a result, we may be required to
pay for financial and other losses, damages and liabilities, including those
caused by natural disasters and other events beyond our control, out of our own
funds, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations. Any system failure that causes
an interruption in the production of our products would impair our
revenue-generating capabilities, and could damage our reputation and our brand
name.
OUR
LACK OF PRODUCT AND BUSINESS DIVERSITY COULD INHIBIT OUR ABILITY TO ADAPT OUR
BUSINESS TO INDUSTRY CHANGES AND DEVELOPMENTS.
We are
currently only engaged in the rubber recycling industry and the production of
rubber mulch, chips, nuggets and powders. Additionally, our efforts
to date have been concentrated in the North American market. This
lack of diverse business operations exposes us to significant
risks. Our future success may be dependent upon our success in
developing and expanding our areas of concentration and upon the general
economic success of the rubber recycling industry. In addition,
decline in the market demand for our products could have a material adverse
effect on our brand, business, results of operations and financial
condition.
OUR
CONTINUED GROWTH DEPENDS ON RETAINING OUR CURRENT KEY EMPLOYEES, AND WE MAY NOT
BE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO DO SO.
Our
success is largely dependent upon the efforts and abilities of Joseph Glusic,
the Chief Executive Officer, President and a director of the
Company. The loss of the services of Mr. Glusic or other members of
our senior management may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of
product development and other business objectives, and it is possible the
Company would not be able to replace them adequately. Mr. Glusic may
resign at any time or we may terminate his employment at any time, and if we
lose the services of, or do not successfully recruit adequate replacement
personnel, the growth of our business could be substantially
impaired. At present, we do not maintain key person insurance for Mr.
Glusic or any of our senior management.
10
WE
MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ATTRACT OR RETAIN QUALIFIED SENIOR PERSONNEL.
We
believe we are currently able to manage our current business with our existing
management team. However, as we expand the scope of our operations,
we will need to obtain the full-time services of additional senior management
and other personnel. Competition for highly skilled personnel is
intense, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to attract or retain
qualified senior personnel. Our failure to do so could have an
adverse effect on our ability to implement our business plan. As we
add full-time senior personnel, our overhead expenses for salaries and related
items will increase from current levels and, depending upon the number of
personnel we hire and their compensation packages, these increases could be
substantial.
WE
ARE SUBJECT TO EXTENSIVE GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION, AND OUR COMPLIANCE WITH
EXISTING OR FUTURE LAWS AND REGULATIONS, AS WELL AS THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY
MANDATORY PRODUCT RECALLS IMPOSED BY FUTURE REGULATIONS, COULD CAUSE US TO INCUR
SUBSTANTIAL EXPENDITURES.
We are
subject to a broad range of federal, state and local laws and regulations
intended to protect public health, natural resources and the
environment. Existing and subsequent changes in foreign, national,
state and local laws, as well as administrative regulations and enforcement
policies over which the Company has no control, could have an adverse effect on
the Company’s business. Workers’ compensation requirements and other
regulation of wages, hours and working conditions could have adverse effects on
the Company’s operations. The Company’s continued operations are
dependent upon its ability to comply with local zoning and land use regulations
which govern the use of buildings and similar matters. The Company
believes that it can obtain the necessary permits to promote the intended
business of the Company at the sites where it intends to do business, but its
ability to obtain these permits is dependent upon the discretion of state and/or
local officers. Moreover, many of these permits may impose
restrictive conditions upon the business operations of the Company and may be
reviewed and revoked at specified intervals. No assurance can be
given that a future law or regulation applicable to the Company’s location will
not have an adverse effect upon its ability to conduct business.
The
Company is subject to numerous federal, state and local laws and regulations
that govern the discharge and disposal of wastes, workplace safety and other
aspects of the Company business. The Company’s operations entail the
risk of noncompliance with environmental and other government
regulations. Environmental and other legislation and regulations have
changed in recent years and the Company cannot predict what, if any, impact
future changes may have on the Company’s business. To mitigate any
risk associated with the ultimate closure and safety of the facility, the
Company will post a reclamation bond to ensure proper closure, maintenance, and
monitoring of the site for the statutory period(s).
Further,
environmental legislation has been enacted, and may in the future be enacted,
that creates liability for past actions that were lawful at the time
taken. As in the case with manufacturing companies in general, if
damage to persons or the environment has been caused, or is in the future
caused, by the Company’s use of hazardous solvents or by hazardous substances
located at the Company’s facilities, the Company may be fined or held liable for
the cost of remediation. Imposition of such fines or the incurrence
of such liability may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business,
financial condition and results of operations.
The
Company expects to be able to incorporate substantially all of the used rubber
feedstock it receives into its manufacturing and reclamation process without
significant waste disposal problems of its own. However, its supply
source is relatively homogeneous and consistent, and there can be no assurance
that in the future continuing regulations will not adversely affect the
Company’s operations or require the introduction of costly additional
manufacturing or waste disposal processes.
11
The
Company believes that the demand for its products and technology could be
decreased if there is a lessening of public concern or governmental pressure on
private industries and municipal authorities to deal with used tire disposal
problems. Further, the Company believes that a lessening of
environmental concerns could reduce the rate at which tires are recycled, which
ultimately could have the effect of increasing the Company’s cost of raw
materials for its manufacturing operations.
Although
state legislation currently provides for certain financial incentives and
procurement preferences for recycled materials, such preferences for materials
containing shredded tires are dependent upon the eventual promulgation of
product or performance standard guidelines by state or federal regulatory
agencies. Such guidelines for recycled rubber materials may not be
released or, if released, the product performance standards required by such
guidelines may be incompatible with the Company’s manufacturing
capabilities.
Risks
Related to our Management and Structure
WE
HAVE NOT IMPLEMENTED VARIOUS CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MEASURES, IN THE ABSENCE OF
WHICH, SHAREHOLDERS MAY HAVE MORE LIMITED PROTECTIONS AGAINST INTERESTED
DIRECTOR TRANSACTIONS, CONFLICT OF INTEREST AND SIMILAR MATTERS.
Current
federal securities regulations, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has
resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures designed to
promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities
markets. Among the corporate governance measures that are generally
considered good practice are policies that address board of directors’
independence, audit committee oversight, and the adoption of a code of
ethics. While we intend to adopt certain corporate governance
measures such as a code of ethics and an established Audit Committee, Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee, and Compensation Committee of our board of
directors, we presently do not have any independent directors, and Joseph Glusic
serves as our sole director. We intend to expand our board membership
in future periods to include independent directors. It is possible
that if we were to have independent directors on our board, stockholders would
benefit from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were
being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been implemented to
define responsible conduct. For example, in the absence of Audit,
Nominating and Compensation Committees comprised of at least a majority of
independent directors, decisions concerning matters such as compensation
packages to our senior officers and recommendations for director nominees may be
made by our sole director, who has an interest in the outcome of the matters
being decided. Prospective investors should bear in mind our current
lack of both corporate governance measures and independent directors in
formulating their investment decisions.
THERE
MAY BE CONFLICTS OF INTEREST BETWEEN OUR MANAGEMENT AND OUR NON-MANAGEMENT
STOCKHOLDERS.
Conflicts
of interest create the risk that management may have an incentive to act
adversely to the interests of other investors. A conflict of interest
may also arise between our management’s personal pecuniary interest and its
fiduciary duty to our stockholders, and, because Mr. Glusic serves as the only
senior executive and our sole director, there will be no independent analysis of
the actions that will be taken by the Company and its Board. Further,
our management’s own pecuniary interest may at some point compromise its
fiduciary duty to our stockholders.
12
THE
COMPANY MAY ENGAGE IN NON-ARM’S LENGTH TRANSACTIONS WITH ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS
AND SHAREHOLDERS.
Transactions
and agreements that the Company may execute with its officers, directors and
shareholders may not have the benefit of arm’s-length negotiation of the type
normally conducted between unrelated parties. These transactions may
not be executed on terms and conditions that are at least as favorable to us as
those that could reasonably be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction
with a person who is not an affiliate.
OUR
MANAGEMENT AND LARGER STOCKHOLDERS EXERCISE SIGNIFICANT CONTROL OVER OUR COMPANY
AND MAY APPROVE OR TAKE ACTIONS THAT MAY BE ADVERSE TO YOUR
INTERESTS.
As of
April 6, 2010, our named executive officers, directors and major stockholders
beneficially owned the majority of our voting power. For the
foreseeable future, these stockholders will be able to exercise control over
many matters requiring approval by the board of directors or our
stockholders. As a result, they will be able to:
|
·
|
control
the composition of our board of
directors;
|
|
·
|
control
our management and policies;
|
|
·
|
determine
the outcome of significant corporate transactions, including changes in
control that may be beneficial to stockholders;
and
|
|
·
|
act
in each of their own interests, which may conflict with, or be different
from, the interests of each other or the interests of the other
stockholders.
|
Risks
Related to our Common Stock
OUR
COMMON STOCK IS CLASSIFIED AS PENNY STOCK, AND IT CONTINUES TO BE EXTREMELY
ILLIQUID, SO INVESTORS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SELL AS MUCH STOCK AS THEY WANT AT
PREVAILING MARKET PRICES.
Our
Common Stock is currently generally classified as a penny
stock. Penny stocks generally include equity securities with a price
of less than $4.00 that trade on the over-the-counter market. As a
result, an investor may find it more difficult to dispose of or obtain accurate
quotations as to the price of the securities that are classified as penny
stocks. The “penny stock” rules adopted by the Commission under the
Exchange Act subject the sale of the shares of penny stock issuers to
regulations that impose sales practice requirements on broker-dealers, causing
many broker-dealers to not trade penny stocks or to only offer the stocks to
sophisticated investors that meet specified net worth or net income criteria
identified by the Commission. These regulations contribute to the
lack of liquidity of penny stocks.
SALES
OF A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK INTO THE PUBLIC MARKET BY
THE SELLING STOCKHOLDERS, AS WELL AS THE EXERCISE OF OUR OUTSTANDING WARRANTS ON
A CASH OR A CASHLESS BASIS, MAY RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT DOWNWARD PRESSURE ON THE
PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND COULD AFFECT THE ABILITY OF OUR STOCKHOLDERS TO
REALIZE THE CURRENT TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
At the
time that this registration statement is declared effective by the SEC, a
significant number of shares of our Common Stock will be eligible to be
immediately sold in the market. Even a perception by the market that
Selling Stockholders may sell in large amounts after the registration statement
is declared effective could place significant downward pressure on our stock
price.
13
OUR
STOCK PRICE AND TRADING VOLUME MAY BE VOLATILE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN LOSSES FOR
OUR STOCKHOLDERS.
The
equity trading markets may experience periods of volatility, which could result
in highly variable and unpredictable pricing of equity
securities. The market of our Common Stock could change in ways that
may or may not be related to our business, industry or operating performance and
financial condition. In addition, the trading volume in our Common
Stock may fluctuate and cause significant price variations to
occur. Some of the factors that could negatively affect our share
price or result in fluctuations in the price or trading volume of our Common
Stock include:
|
·
|
Actual
or anticipated quarterly variations in our operating
results;
|
|
·
|
Changes
in expectations as to our future financial performance or changes in
financial estimates, if any;
|
|
·
|
Announcements
relating to our business or the business of our
competitors;
|
|
·
|
Conditions
generally affecting the crumb rubber
industry;
|
|
·
|
The
success of our operating strategy;
and
|
|
·
|
The
operating and stock performance of other comparable
companies.
|
Many of
these factors are beyond our control, and we cannot predict their potential
effects on the price of our Common Stock. If the market price of our
Common Stock declines significantly, you may be unable to resell your shares of
Common Stock at or above the price you acquired those shares. We
cannot assure you that the market price of our Common Stock will not fluctuate
or decline significantly.
FINRA
SALES PRACTICE REQUIREMENTS LIMIT A STOCKHOLDERS’ ABILITY TO BUY AND SELL OUR
STOCK.
The
Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA) has adopted rules which
require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must
have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that
customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to
their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts
to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status,
investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of
these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative
low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some
customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for
broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our Common Stock, which has
the effect of reducing the level of trading activity and liquidity of our Common
Stock. Further, many brokers charge higher transactional fees for
penny stock transactions. As a result, fewer broker-dealers are
willing to make a market in our Common Stock, reducing a stockholders’ ability
to resell shares of our Common Stock.
LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS
The
Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings, and to the
best of its knowledge, no such proceedings by or against the Company have been
initiated.
14
USE
OF PROCEEDS
We will
not receive any proceeds from any sale of the shares of our Common Stock by the
Selling Stockholders.
DETERMINATION
OF OFFERING PRICE
We are
not selling any Common Stock in this offering. We anticipate that the
Selling Stockholders will offer the Shares for sale at prevailing market prices
on the OTC Bulletin Board on the date of such sale.
DILUTION
We
currently file reports with the SEC, and we are not selling any Common Stock in
this offering. The Selling Stockholders are the current stockholders
of the Company.
SELLING
SECURITY HOLDERS
The
shares of Common Stock being offered by the Selling Stockholders are those
issuable to the Selling Stockholders upon conversion of the Notes and exercise
of the Warrants. For additional information regarding the issuance of
the Notes and the Warrants, see “Warrants and Convertible Notes”
below. We are registering the shares of Common Stock in order to
permit the Selling Stockholders to offer the shares for resale from time to
time. Except for the ownership of the Notes and the Warrants issued
pursuant to the December 21, 2009 Securities Purchase Agreement, the Selling
Stockholders have not had any material relationship with us within the past
three years.
The table
below lists the Selling Stockholders and other information regarding the
beneficial ownership (as determined under Section 13(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder) of
the shares of Common Stock held by each of the Selling
Stockholders. The second column lists the number of shares of Common
Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders, based on their respective
ownership of shares of Common Stock, Notes and Warrants, as of March 18, 2009,
assuming conversion of the Notes and exercise of the Warrants held by each such
Selling Stockholder on that date but taking account of any limitations on
conversion and exercise set forth therein.
The third
column lists the shares of Common Stock being offered by this prospectus by the
Selling Stockholders and does not take in account any limitations on (i)
conversion of the Notes set forth therein or (ii) exercise of the Warrants set
forth therein.
In
accordance with the terms of a registration rights agreement with the holders of
the Notes and the Warrants, this prospectus generally covers the resale of 133%
of the sum of (i) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of the Notes and (ii) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, in each case, determined as if the
outstanding Notes and Warrants were converted or exercised (as the case may be)
in full (without regard to any limitations on conversion or exercise contained
therein) as of the trading day immediately preceding the date this registration
statement was initially filed with the SEC. As described herein, all
or any part of the principal amount outstanding under each Note, plus all
accrued and unpaid interest thereon, is convertible at any time and from time to
time into shares of our Common Stock at the conversion price of $1.21 per share
(the “Conversion
Price”), subject to certain exercise limitations based on beneficial
ownership levels, at the option of the holder of each Note. The
Conversion Price may be adjusted in the event the Company issues (i) any shares
of Common Stock for consideration per share that is less than the Conversion
Price, (ii) options to purchase Common Stock at an exercise price that is less
than the Conversion Price; or (iii) any convertible security that is convertible
for Common Stock at a conversion price that is less than the Conversion
Price. In addition, if the Company engages in a subdivision or
combination of one or more classes of its outstanding Common Stock, then the
Conversion Price will be proportionately adjusted.
15
Each
Series A, Series B and Series C Warrant may be exercised for the purchase of one
share of Common Stock at the exercise price of $1.21 per share (the “Exercise
Price”). The Exercise Price may be adjusted in the event the
Company pays a stock dividend, subdivides one or more classes of its Common
Stock, or combines one or more classes of its then outstanding shares of Common
Stock. In addition, if the Company issues any options or convertible
securities at an exercise or conversion price that is less than the Exercise
Price, then the Exercise Price may be adjusted.
Because
the conversion price of the Notes and the exercise price of the Warrants may be
adjusted, the number of shares that will actually be issued may be less than the
number of shares being offered by this prospectus. The fourth column
assumes the sale of all of the shares offered by the Selling Stockholders
pursuant to this prospectus.
Under the
terms of the Notes and the Warrants, a Selling Stockholder may not convert the
Notes or exercise the Warrants to the extent (but only to the extent) such
Selling Stockholder or any of its affiliates would beneficially own a number of
shares of our Common Stock which would exceed 4.9% or 9.9% (as
applicable). The number of shares in the second column reflects these
limitations. The Selling Stockholders may sell all, some or none of
their shares in this offering. See “Plan of
Distribution.”

exercise of the warrants to permit the resale of these shares of Common Stock by
the holders of the notes and warrants from time to time after the date of this

Common Stock.
The
selling stockholders may sell all or a portion of the shares of Common Stock
held by them and offered hereby from time to time directly or through one or
more underwriters, broker-dealers or agents. If the shares of Common
Stock are sold through underwriters or broker-dealers, the selling stockholders
will be responsible for underwriting discounts or commissions or agent’s
commissions. The shares of Common Stock may be sold in one or more
transactions at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of the
sale, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated
prices. These sales may be effected in transactions, which may
involve crosses or block transactions, pursuant to one or more of the following
methods:

The
selling stockholders may also sell shares of Common Stock under Rule 144
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather
than under this prospectus. In addition, the selling stockholders may
transfer the shares of Common Stock by other means not described in this
prospectus. If the selling stockholders effect such transactions by
selling shares of Common Stock to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or
agents, such underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions in
the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders
or commissions from purchasers of the shares of Common Stock for whom they may
act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal (which discounts, concessions
or commissions as to particular underwriters, broker-dealers or agents may be in
excess of those customary in the types of transactions involved). In
connection with sales of the shares of Common Stock or otherwise, the selling
stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may
in turn engage in short sales of the shares of Common Stock in the course of
hedging in positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also
sell shares of Common Stock short and deliver shares of Common Stock covered by
this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in
connection with such short sales. The selling stockholders may also
loan or pledge shares of Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell
such shares.
The
selling stockholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of
the notes, warrants or shares of Common Stock owned by them and, if they default
in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties
may offer and sell the shares of Common Stock from time to time pursuant to this
prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other
applicable provision of the Securities Act amending, if necessary, the list of
selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in
interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling
stockholders also may transfer and donate the shares of Common Stock in other
circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other
successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of
this prospectus.
To the
extent required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder,
the selling stockholders and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution
of the shares of Common Stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the
meaning of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or
concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting
commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. At the time a
particular offering of the shares of Common Stock is made, a prospectus
supplement, if required, will be distributed, which will set forth the aggregate
amount of shares of Common Stock being offered and the terms of the offering,
including the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents, any discounts,
commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling
stockholders and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or re-allowed
or paid to broker-dealers.
19
Under the
securities laws of some states, the shares of Common Stock may be sold in such
states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In
addition, in some states the shares of Common Stock may not be sold unless such
shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption
from registration or qualification is available and is complied
with.
There can
be no assurance that any selling stockholder will sell any or all of the shares
of Common Stock registered pursuant to the registration statement, of which this
prospectus forms a part.
The
selling stockholders and any other person participating in such distribution
will be subject to applicable provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without
limitation, to the extent applicable, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which
may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of Common Stock
by the selling stockholders and any other participating person. To
the extent applicable, Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person
engaged in the distribution of the shares of Common Stock to engage in
market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common
Stock. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the
shares of Common Stock and the ability of any person or entity to engage in
market-making activities with respect to the shares of Common
Stock.
We will
pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to
the registration rights agreement, estimated to be $16,182 in total, including,
without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses
of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, a
selling stockholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions,
if any. We will indemnify the selling stockholders against
liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act in accordance
with the registration rights agreements or the selling stockholders will be
entitled to contribution. We may be indemnified by the selling
stockholders against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act that may arise from any written information furnished to us by
the selling stockholder specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance
with the related registration rights agreements or we may be entitled to
contribution.
Once sold
under the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part, the
shares of Common Stock will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other
than our affiliates.
DESCRIPTION
OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED
The
following summary of our Capital Stock, Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation and the Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
provisions of applicable law and to the complete terms of our capital stock
contained in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation.
Common
Stock
We have
150,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value, authorized by our Amended
and Restated Articles of Incorporation. The holders of the Common
Stock are entitled to one vote per share on each matter submitted to a vote at
any meeting of stockholders. Shares of Common Stock do not carry
cumulative voting rights, and therefore, a majority of the shares of outstanding
Common Stock may elect the entire Board of Directors; if they do so, minority
stockholders would not be able to elect any persons to the Board of
Directors. Our Bylaws provide that a majority of our issued and
outstanding shares shall constitute a quorum for stockholder meetings except
with respect to certain matters for which a greater percentage quorum is
required by statute or the bylaws.
20
Our
stockholders have no preemptive rights to acquire additional shares of Common
Stock or other securities. The Common Stock is not subject to
redemption and carries no subscription or conversion rights. In the
event of liquidation of the Company, the shares of Common Stock are entitled to
share equally in corporate assets after satisfaction of all
liabilities. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive such
dividends as the Board of Directors may from time to time declare out of funds
legally available for the payment of dividends. We seek growth and
expansion of our business through the reinvestment of profits, if any, and do
not anticipate that we will pay dividends in the foreseeable
future.
The Board
of Directors cannot issue the authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock
without action by the stockholders. The issuance of such shares would
reduce the percentage ownership held by existing stockholders and may dilute the
book value of their shares.
There are
no provisions in our Bylaws or Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of
the Company which would delay, defer or prevent a change in control of the
Company.
Warrants
and Convertible Notes
On
December 21, 2009, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and related
agreements pursuant to which we agreed to issue 9% Senior Secured Convertible
Notes (the “Notes”), Series A
Warrants to purchase 2,169,424 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, Series B
Warrants to purchase 2,892,562 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and Series
C Warrants to purchase 2,169,424 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the
Series A Warrants, Series B Warrants and Series C Warrants are referred to
herein as the “Warrants”) for an
aggregate purchase price of $3,500,000 in a private placement (the “Private
Placement”). This prospectus is being delivered in connection
with the resale of shares of our Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of
the Notes, as payment of principal and accrued interest thereon (the Notes are
initially convertible up to 3,847,107 shares of Common Stock), and upon the
exercise of the Warrants (initially exercisable up to 9,617,775 shares of Common
Stock) issued in connection with the Private Placement.
The Notes
were issued December 23, 2009 pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement
among our Company and the Selling Stockholders. The principal
purposes of the Private Placement was for general corporate purposes, including
the purchase of equipment to produce recycled fine rubber powders, site work and
working capital. The Private Placement resulted in gross proceeds to
us of $3,500,000 before placement agent fees and other expenses associated with
the transaction.
The Notes
mature December 1, 2010 and bear interest at an annual rate of 9% payable
quarterly in, at the Company’s option, cash or, subject to the satisfaction of
certain customary conditions, registered shares of our Common
Stock. In addition, at the option of the holder of each Note, all or
any part of the principal amount outstanding under each Note, plus all accrued
and unpaid interest thereon, is convertible at any time and from time to time
into shares of our Common Stock at the conversion price of $1.21 per share (the
“Conversion
Price”), subject to certain exercise limitations based on beneficial
ownership levels. The Conversion Price may be adjusted in the event
the Company issues (i) any shares of Common Stock for consideration per share
that is less than the Conversion Price, (ii) options to purchase Common Stock at
an exercise price that is less than the Conversion Price; or (iii) any
convertible security that is convertible for Common Stock at a conversion price
that is less than the Conversion Price. In addition, if the Company
engages in a subdivision or combination of one or more classes of its
outstanding Common Stock, then the Conversion Price will be proportionately
adjusted.
21
Each Note
lists certain “Events of Default,” which include, without limitation, any
default in the payment of principal of, interest on or other charges in respect
of the Notes as and when they become due and payable, and our failure to observe
or perform any other covenant, agreement or warranty contained in, or otherwise
commit any breach or default of any provision of the Notes, the Securities
Purchase Agreement, the Security Agreement or the Registration Rights
Agreement. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the holder may
require us to redeem all or any portion of a Note by delivering written notice
to us at a default redemption price as calculated pursuant to certain formulas
set forth in the Note. In the event of a partial redemption, the
principal amount redeemed shall be deducted from the installment amounts
relating to the applicable installment date(s) as set forth in the notice of
default and redemption.
The
Warrants issued to the Selling Stockholders in the Private Placement include the
following:
|
·
|
Series
A Warrants, which are exercisable for a period of five years into an
aggregate of 75% of the number of shares of our Common Stock initially
issuable upon conversion of the Notes, with the Series A Warrants being
exercisable into 2,169,424 shares immediately upon
issuance;
|
|
·
|
Series
B Warrants, which are exercisable for a period of five years into 100% of
the shares of our Common Stock initially issuable upon conversion of the
Notes, with the Series B Warrants being exercisable into 2,892,562 shares
immediately upon issuance; and
|
|
·
|
Series
C Warrants, which are exercisable for a period of five years into a
maximum percentage of 75% of the number of shares of our Common Stock
initially issuable upon conversion of the Notes, with the Series C
Warrants being exercisable into 2,169,424 shares immediately upon issuance
but only to the extent that the Series B Warrants are exercised and only
in the same percentage that the Series B Warrants are
exercised.
|
The
initial exercise price of each Series A Warrant, Series B Warrant and Series C
Warrant will be the same as the initial conversion price under the Notes ($1.21
per share). Like the Conversion Price of the Notes, the exercise
price of the Warrants is subject to a full-ratchet adjustment upon the
occurrence of certain events, including our issuance of securities at a price
per share less than the exercise price then in effect. If we issue
shares of Common Stock or options exercisable for or securities convertible into
Common Stock at an effective price per share of Common Stock less than the
exercise price then in effect, the exercise price will be reduced to the
effective price of the new issuance.
In
connection with the Private Placement, we entered into a Registration Rights
Agreement with the Selling Stockholders under which we were required, on or
before February 6, 2010, to file a registration statement with the SEC covering
the resale of the shares of our Common Stock issuable pursuant to the Notes and
Warrants, including as payment of principal and interest on the Notes, and to
use our best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective at
the earliest date, but in no event later than 90 days after filing if there is
no SEC review of the registration statement, or 120 days if there is an SEC
review. The Registration Rights Agreement provides for certain
monetary penalties if the registration statement is not filed or does not become
effective on a timely basis.

DESCRIPTION
OF BUSINESS AND PROPERTIES
Overview
Magnum
d’Or Resources, Inc. (the “Company” or “Magnum”) was
incorporated on September 3, 1999 under the laws of the State of
Nevada. Since its inception, the Company has evolved through several
transitions to its present state. During this evolution, the Company
operated as an internet information company, a mining exploration company and a
business acquisition company.
In
December 2006, the Company’s then outstanding preferred stock, and thus voting
control of the Company, was acquired by an individual for the express purpose of
pursuing the Company’s current business strategy of producing high quality
rubber powder and thermoplastics.
Business
Units
Operations in
Canada
In May
2008, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Recyclage Magnum Canada
(“RMC”), into
which the Company subsequently transferred all production equipment for the
purpose of establishing its first North American production
facility. RMC’s 98,500+ square foot turnkey production facility is
situated in the town of Magog, which is located in the Memphremagog region of
Canada. The Company chose to establish its first North American
facility in the Memphremagog region of Canada because of this region’s proximity
to both the Canadian market and the Northeast region of the United States,
as well as Memphremagog’s commercial focus on the rubber
industry.
With the
modular design of the Company’s production line at its Magog facility, the
operation is capable of producing several varied products without requiring
additional parts, labor or equipment. Currently, the Canadian
facility is producing rubber buffings (mulch), rubber nuggets, and fine rubber
powders that are sized at forty-mesh minus. In the future, the
Company may focus the production of the Magog facility on fine rubber
powders.
Operations in the United
States
In June
2009, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary in the State of Nevada titled
Magnum Recycling USA (“MRUSA”) for the
purpose of establishing the Company’s first operations in the United
States. In August 2009, MRUSA acquired a tire disposal
facility/monofill located in Hudson, Colorado to establish a centralized U.S.
production and distribution point. The purchase of the Hudson site
included the acquisition of a stockpile of used and discarded tires that the
Company has estimated to be approximately 30 million units, which equates to
approximately 300,000 tons of raw rubber materials. The strategic
geographic location of the Hudson facility, as well as the stockpile of used
tires available at this facility, makes the Hudson facility an ideal location
for the production and distribution of fine rubber powders and
compounds.
23
The
Hudson facility currently operates as one of three licensed Colorado monofills
that is permitted to accept used tires, and it is also engaged in the
pre-shredding of raw rubber materials. Shredding operations at the
Hudson facility began in October of 2009 with the delivery of a Saturn mobile
shredding unit, and to date an estimated 500,000 tires have been shredded into
raw materials suitable for processing into fine rubber powders when MRUSA
installs the powder production equipment that it ordered in January
2010. The Company expects that the additional processing equipment,
which cost approximately $1,500,000, will enable the Company to produce high
volumes of quality rubber powders for sale and use in custom
compounds.
Distribution
Methods
After the
Company finishes the process of manufacturing its rubber buffing (mulch), rubber
nuggets and fine rubber powder products, the finished goods are packaged
generally in one-ton “super sacks” for delivery to our end-user
customers. Each super sack is tied down to a standard pallet so that
each super sack is easily transportable, and final finished goods are stored in
areas of each production facility designated as warehouse space.
Thus far
the Company’s primary distribution method for products produced at each of the
Magog and the Hudson facility has been via truck road transport through
contracted fulfillment companies. In most cases the Company
distributes products to customers who purchase truck load bulk shipments,
although from time to time customers may order less than a truck load bulk
shipment. As the Company continues to explore new markets in the
future it may consider other distribution methods, including distribution by
rail and container shipping.
Engineering
Operations
In
October 2009, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Magnum Engineering
(“MEI”) for the
express purpose of providing rubber recycling equipment engineering and
consulting related services to the Company and to other interested third
parties. Currently, MEI is offering equipment purchase and
installation consulting to RMC and MRUSA related to the production of high
quality rubber powder production. MEI does not currently provide any
services to any entity other than RMC and MRUSA.
Magnum/SRI
Partnership
In
October 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with Sekhar Research
Innovations (“SRI”) of Malaysia to
acquire the use and licensing rights of technologically advanced patents,
processes and equipment for the North American market. The Company
intends to use these patented processes to convert the high quality rubber
powder from the Company’s current North American operations into custom
compounds.
Pursuant
to the terms of this agreement, the Company agreed to pay SRI a fee of $50,000
for a 25% stake in the carbon black masterbatch process patent, which is a
patent wholly-owned by SRI. The carbon black masterbatch process is a
process used to help integrate high quality rubber powders with other processing
agents to create base components for the production of rubber compounds and
thermoplastics. The Company also agreed to pay SRI a $3,000 monthly
fee for the exclusive rights to this carbon black masterbatch patent in North
America, with a first right of refusal for the use of this patent
worldwide. Additionally, the Company paid SRI a fee of $100,000 for a
25% stake in SRI’s wholly-owned patent pending liquid rubber processing agent,
and agreed to pay SRI a $75,000 annual fee for the exclusive rights to use this
agent in North America.
The
agreement between SRI and the Company has no definitive term, and the Company
and SRI continue to work together pursuant to the terms of this agreement to
produce custom compounds, retread compounds, processing aids and reactivated
ambient/cryogenic rubber powders. Magnum/SRI tests are targeting
premium applications that contain industrialized high percentage raw material
substitution and high grade properties.
24
Expansion
Opportunities
From time
to time in the future the Company may consider acquiring additional facilities
and resources to allow it to strategically provide modified sources of recycled
rubber products, reconstituted rubber derivatives, and high quality rubber
powders to various distributors and manufacturers. The Company
intends to pursue these plans through the operation of wholly owned and joint
venture facilities that may be fabricated or acquired as the market
allows. The Company hopes to establish technical facilities, either
coincident with or separate from its production facilities, to conduct research
and development activities. It may also enter into strategic
alliances with educational institutions and/or research firms to advance its
market research and develop innovative products and solutions associated with
its core recycling business.
Products
The
Company currently has one primary customer for the products that are produced at
its North American facilities, and in the future the Company hopes to develop
additional customers and to explore other available markets. The
Company’s products currently include tire derived fuel chips (TDF), rubber
buffings (landscape), rubber nuggets (landscape), rubber granules (crumb
rubber), and fine rubber powders, and each of these products is generally used
for the following purposes:
|
·
|
The
TDF product is generally used as a fuel source for steam generated power
plants or as heat in cement kilns.

Rubber
buffings and rubber nuggets are used in products such as
realistically-textured groundcover and as a replacement for wood chips,
bark and gravel.
|
|
·
|
Rubber
granules are used as raw materials in the production of rubberized
asphalt, infill for civil engineering projects, and certain types of
urethane blended playground safety
surfaces.
|
|
·
|
Rubber
powders are used as filler materials for molded goods like rubber mats,
paving stoves and automotive parts. Rubber powders are also
used to develop custom compounds.
|
Additionally,
the Company has engaged in preliminary discussions with various parties
regarding the possible sale of the nylon cord byproduct and steel byproduct that
is produced from recycled tires.
As
production moves forward, the Company expects to move from low margin TDF and
landscape products (such as rubber nuggets and rubber buffings) to higher yield
and higher margin crumb rubber reclamation products. The creation of
crumb rubber reclamation products utilizes technologies and processing aids that
convert vulcanized rubber into value added natural and synthetic rubber
compounds. These compounds are specifically useful in retread and automotive
components.
Customers
Manufacturing
companies today are under tremendous pressure to turn their present production
processes in an environmentally friendly direction or provide customers “green”
options for end-user consumption. The Company’s products fit neatly into
this niche market for the production of environmentally friendly recycled
products. Each of the Company’s product categories listed above has a
unique consumer who frequently seeks raw materials that will be integrated into
their production processes so that such consumer can classify its respective
products as “green.” The Company is always in the process of seeking new
consumers of the landscape materials, crumb rubber, fine rubber powders and
custom compounds that are currently in production.
25
Currently,
the landscape raw material segment of the recycled rubber market represents the
primary market for the products that are produced at our Magog,
facility. The Company currently works closely with National Sales and
Supply, Inc. (“NSS”), the largest
recycled rubber landscape supply company in North America, and in January 2008
the Company executed two contracts with NSS pursuant to which it may provide NSS
up to 48,000 tons of rubber buffings and 40,000 tons of rubber nuggets each year
at the initial price of $380.00 per ton and $200.00 per ton,
respectively. The term of each contract is five years, and the cost
of the rubber buffings and nuggets to be supplied under each contract is
scheduled to increase by five percent each year.
To date,
the Company has sold only limited amounts of fine rubber powders to the outside
market. The remaining production has been used for the Company’s
internal research and development with its technology partner
SRI. The rubber powder and compounding markets are still being
developed by the Company as production capacity continues to
expand. The Company expects that these segments may quickly surpass
the landscape raw materials market in the future.
Sourcing Raw Rubber
Materials as Inventory
The
Company generally acquires raw rubber materials as feedstock for its
manufacturing processes through two primary methods. In connection
with the production that occurs at the Company’s Hudson, Colorado facility, the
Company generally uses as feedstock the estimated 30 million tires of used tire
inventory that exists at these facilities. Alternatively, from time
to time the Company may execute tire supply contracts with local tire haulers
and tire distributors that are seeking a source for the disposal of used
tires. The Company does not pay for this inventory, but instead local
vendors deliver this inventory to the Company after paying the Company a small
disposal fee, which are generally referred to as “tipping
fees.” Generally, these raw materials are readily available to the
Company, and on average the Company collects approximately 100 tons of
recyclable tires each month. The Company does not currently have any
formal agreement with any local tire haulers or tire distributors for the
delivery of used tires.
Highly
Competitive Industry
The crumb
rubber industry is highly competitive. Virtually all of the
manufacturers, distributors and marketers of recycled rubber products have
substantially greater management, financial, research and development, marketing
and manufacturing resources than we do. The Company faces competition
in all of its markets from large, national companies and smaller, regional
companies, as well as from individuals. Many of the Company’s
competitors are larger and have greater financial resources than the
Company. The Company from time to time will experience price pressure
in certain of its markets as a result of competitors’ promotional pricing
practices. Competition is based on product quality, functionality,
price, brand loyalty, effective promotional activities and the ability to
identify and satisfy emerging preferences.
Notwithstanding
this competition, the Company believes that its focus toward sources of used
tires is less attractive to most producers of recycled tires, and the Company’s
acquisition of the Hudson, Colorado facility may provide the Company a reliable
source of raw materials for at least the next five years. Further,
the Company believes that the tire reclamation processes that it has developed
for its manufacturing business may enable the Company to source raw rubber
materials from readily available sources in the future. However, the
Company anticipates new entrants into the tire reclamation business which could
affect the Company’s source of raw materials supply, and there is no assurance
that the Company will be successful in obtaining suitable investment, financing
or purchase contracts for its products.
26
Governmental
Regulation
It is
impossible to predict all future government regulation, if any, to which the
Company may be subject until it has been in production for a period of
time. The use of assets and/or conduct of business that the Company
is pursuing will be subject to environmental, public health and safety, land
use, trade, and other governmental regulations, as well as state and/or local
taxation. In developing its activity in the rubber and recycle
industry, management will endeavor to ascertain, to the extent possible due to
its current limited resources, the effects of such government regulation on the
prospective business of the Company. In certain circumstances,
however, it may not be possible to predict with any degree of accuracy the
impact of all potential government regulation. The inability to
ascertain the complete effect of government regulation on current or future
business activity makes the Company business a higher risk.
Employees
The
Company, including its subsidiaries, presently has seventeen full time
employees. The Company also relies upon the use of vendors,
contractors, consultants and contract labor to fulfill the needs and
requirements associated with the installation, start-up, testing and initial
production activities.
The
Company’s consultants provide the Company access to strategic relationships with
several business development resources, as well as providing those services that
the Company’s management deems necessary to the Company from time to
time. Company consultant agreements include terms that range from
several months to several years, and several of these agreements provide in part
that the compensation payable to the consultant shall be mutually agreed upon by
the Company and the consultant. Other consultant agreements provide
in part that consultants are to be paid a fixed obligation by the Company,
either in cash, Company stock or a combination of both, at the discretion of the
Company.
The
Company has historically retained consultants to provide services in the areas
of information technology, brand development, web development and
marketing. Information technology consulting included the creation
and maintenance of the Company’s email system and phone system maintenance for
the Company’s former corporate offices in Fort Lauderdale,
Florida. Marketing and brand development activities included the
development of corporate advertising, brand standards, logo development and the
shooting and editing of Company stock photography. Consultants were
also retained for the development, redesign, launch, search engine optimization
and maintenance of the Company’s website, http://www.magnumresources.net.
The
Company expects to continue to use contract labor, management consultants,
attorneys, accountants, engineers and other professionals as necessary to
support its management and administrative requirements, and the ongoing need for
these service providers will be addressed on a continuing basis.
Properties
The
Company maintains its official US address of record at 2850 W. Horizon Ridge
Pkwy., Suite 200, Henderson, Nevada 89052. Its wholly owned
subsidiary, “Recyclage Magnum Canada, Inc.,” maintains its corporate office and
primary production facility at 2035 Boulevard Industrial, Magog, Quebec, Canada
J1X 5G9. Recyclage Magnum maintains a 98,500 square foot building at
this facility, where it produces rubber nuggets and buffing.

MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Critical
Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
The
preparation of consolidated financial statements requires us to make certain
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, the reported amounts and classification of expense, and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our
estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. We base our estimates
on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be
reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for
making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are
not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ
from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The
following items in our consolidated financial statements require significant
estimates and judgments:
28
Revenue
recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue from the sales of products in accordance with
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff
Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, when
persuasive evidence of an order arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the
sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably
assured. Generally, these criteria are met at the time the product is
shipped to customers when title and risk of loss have transferred.
Share-based
payments
The
Company periodically issues options and warrants to purchase shares of the
Company’s Common Stock to employees and non-employees for services and for
financing costs. Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant
date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over
the requisite service period. Options vest and expire according to
terms established at the grant date.
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or
market. Raw materials are considered long-term assets as they are not
expected to be processed and sold by the end of the subsequent fiscal
year.
General
The
following discussion and analysis summarizes the results of operations of Magnum
d’Or Resources, Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) for the fiscal year ended September
30, 2009.
As of
September 30, 2008 the Company was a development stage recycling
company. It held certain licensed technology and proprietary processes
related to the granulation of recycled rubber products and the subsequent
production of materials used to produce various malleable and semi-rigid
elastomeric alloys (EAs). The Company also secured distribution rights to
sell and distribute certain recycling equipment necessary to shred and granulate
tires and other rubber products throughout North America and
China. However, on December 28, 2008, the Company elected not to
continue the use of these licenses and the parties agreed to terminate its
relationship and hold each other harmless.
In
October 2008, the Company acquired new licensing rights to a number of
technological processes that allow rubber to be reconstituted, liquefied,
specially blended into ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) powders, and EPDM
compounds. These agreements provide the Company with an array of
technologies that could provide a positive impact on the rubber recycling
industry. The Company will use its licensed processes to disintegrate
scrap tires, remove fibers and metal wire, and produce crumb rubber sorted into
different mesh sizes to be recycled into various rubber products.
Production
activities commenced during November of 2008, thus transforming the Company from
a development stage entity to an operational entity.
In June
2009, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary in the State of Nevada titled
Magnum Recycling USA (“MRUSA”) for the
purpose of establishing the Company’s first operations in the United
States. In August 2009, MRUSA acquired a tire disposal
facility/monofill located in Hudson, Colorado to establish a centralized U.S.
production and distribution point.
29
In
October 2009, the Company formed another wholly-owned subsidiary, Magnum
Engineering (“MEI”) for the express
purpose of providing rubber recycling equipment engineering and consulting
related services to the Company and to other interested third
parties.
Results
of Operations for the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009
The
Company incurred continuing losses due to activities associated with purchasing,
installing and testing equipment for its targeted business
activities. Additional funds were utilized for securing a suitable facility
and making modifications necessary to accommodate its anticipated
operations. Expenses specifically included design activities, equipment
procurement, facility modifications, installation activities, testing,
financing, marketing and employment expenditures.
Although
the Company’s revenues are currently minimal, the Company continues to seek out
new customers and continue the expansion of its current product
line. Revenue has been generated in part because of the sales of
products produced at the Company’s Magog, Quebec facility, as well as the
Company’s receipt of tipping fees from tire disposal clients who pay the Company
to dispose used tires at the Company’s Hudson, Colorado facility. The
amount of revenue the Company has generated from its receipt of tipping fees at
the Hudson facility has steadily increased in each quarter since the Company
acquired the Hudson facility, in part due to the Company’s acquisition of
additional tire disposal customers, including, among others several governmental
agencies located in the State of Colorado. During the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2009, the Company recognized approximately $85,000 in
revenue due to the sale of approximately 225 tons of rubber nuggets and rubber
buffings produced at the Company’s Magog, Quebec facility. During the
quarter ended December 31, 2009, the Company recognized $5,377 in revenue based
in part on the Company’s receipt of tipping fees for its collection of
approximately seventy-seven tons of used tires at the Company’s Hudson, Colorado
facility.
During
the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009, the Company acquired its tire
recycling facility located in Hudson, Colorado. The Company recently
ordered the tire processing and handling equipment to be installed at this
facility, which the Company paid for with approximately $1,500,000 of the net
proceeds of its issuance of $3,500,000 of Senior Secured Promissory Notes in
December 2009. The Company expects that this processing and handling
equipment will enable the Company initially to produce up to 15,000 tons of high
quality grade rubber powders, nylon and steel from the used tire inventory
located at the Hudson facility, and the Company anticipates that this processing
and handling equipment will be installed in May 2010. The Company
currently has the capital to complete the installation of this equipment once it
arrives, and once the equipment is installed, tested and operational, the
Company anticipates that the equipment will begin producing saleable products by
the end of the Company’s third fiscal quarter (June 30, 2010). In
conjunction with the installation of this equipment, the Company continues to
build its tire inventory at the Hudson facility to accommodate the addition of
rubber powder producing equipment.
30
The
Company incurred significant consulting-related expenses in fiscal year ended
September 30, 2009. These consultant expenses were incurred primarily to
compensate Company consultants for their provision of services in the areas of
information technology, brand development, web development and
marketing. Information technology consulting expenses were incurred
for the provision of services related to the creation and maintenance of the
Company’s email system and phone system. The Company also incurred consultant
expenses for the development, redesign, launch, search engine optimization and
maintenance of the Company’s website, and the Company incurred other consultant
expenses for the provision of marketing and brand development activities,
including the development of corporate advertising, brand standards, logo
development and the shooting and editing of Company stock
photography. The Company has historically retained consultants to
provide the types of services described herein, and the Company may continue to
retain consultants in the future as necessary.
Comparison
of the Years Ended September 30, 2009 and 2008
During
its fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company had revenues of
$85,070 and $0, respectively.
For the
year ended September 30, 2009 compared to the year ended September 30, 2008, the
Company had a net loss of $37,316,062 versus a loss of $2,607,352, respectively,
equating to a 1331% increase in net loss. The increased loss was due to
higher operating expenses that were mainly attributed to an increase in
consulting services, and to a lesser extent, other professional services and
accrued interest expense. These costs are further delineated as
follows:
Officer
compensation increased to $3,607,730 from $172,233 reported in the year ended
September 30, 2008 primarily due to the issuance of stock incentives that must
be valued as issued. Consulting fees increased from $1,968,700 for the year
ended September 30, 2008 to $29,707,593 reported for the year ending September
30, 2009, primarily due to the same situation discussed above. Legal and
other professional fees increased 70% from $261,753 for the year ended September
30, 2008 to $444,898 incurred for the year ending September 30, 2009, due to the
additional resources required during acquisition activities associated with the
Colorado site. General and Administrative expenses increased 427% from
$71,144 during the year ended September 30, 2008 to $374,974 for
the year ended September 30, 2009 due to additional overhead expenses associated
with Company expansion activities. Interest expense increased 1589%
from $133,300 reported for the year ended September 30, 2008 to
$2,251,060 for the year ended September 30, 2009 due to the increased debt
load of the Company.
During
the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009, the Company had a net loss of $0.79
per share compared to a net loss of $0.17 per share during fiscal
2008.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources for the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009
At
September 30, 2009, the Company had total assets of $11,210,977, comprised of
$57,844 in cash, $19,708 in receivables, $6,997,207 in inventory, $66,550 in
liens, $408,311 in prepaid expenses, and $3,242,466 in property, plant and
equipment. In addition, the company has a working capital deficit of

comprised of $510,042 in cash, $36,228 in prepaid expenses, $131,042 in deposits
on equipment and $687,629 in equipment. In addition, the company had a
working capital of $157,427, and a negative cash flow from operations of
$120,449.
31
The
Company currently has adequate capital and financing in order to meet its 2010
budget and current financial obligations. The Company expects to
carry out its plan of business and may also engage in joint venture activities
with other companies in the future.
Other
limited commitments to provide additional funds have been made by management and
other shareholders, but this does not provide any assurance that any additional
funds will be made available on acceptable terms now or in the
future.
The
Company’s operations are progressing forward; however, the Company had a net
loss of $37,316,062 for the year ended September 30, 2009 and an accumulated
deficit of $45,878,841 at September 30, 2009. Stockholders’ equity as
of September 30, 2009 was $5,389,482. Furthermore, the Company had a
negative cash flow from operations of $1,740,446 for the year ended September
30, 2009. The Company anticipates generating a positive cash flow
during the third quarter of its fiscal 2010 (ending on June 30, 2010), and upon
successful installation and operation of the processing equipment that is
currently under construction. This equipment is currently scheduled
for installation and subsequent operation in May 2010.
On
September 3, 2009 the Company engaged Rodman & Renshaw, LLC. as an exclusive
placement agent to procure equity based financing for the Company for up to
$5,000,000. Subsequently, on December 18, 2009 the Company disengaged
Rodman & Renshaw, LLC and entered into a new agreement with Chardan Capital
Markets, LLC for similar purposes. On December 23, 2009 the Company
completed a financing with the investors identified in the Selling Security
Holders table herein to provide $3,500,000 in working capital in exchange for
the issuance of one year senior secured convertible promissory notes described
below.
On
December 21, 2009, the Company, entered into a definitive purchase agreement
with institutional investors to place Senior Secured Convertible Notes (the
“Notes”) due
December 2010 totaling $3.5 million in gross proceeds before fees and expenses
(the “Transaction”). The
Transaction closed on December 23, 2009 (the “Closing
Date”). The net proceeds of the financing are being utilized
to purchase machines and equipment to produce recycled fine rubber powders,
infrastructure improvements, site work and working capital.
The Notes
bear interest at an annual rate of 9% payable quarterly in, at the Company’s
option, cash or, subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions,
registered shares of the Company $.001 par value Common Stock, and the Notes,
and any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, are convertible into shares of
Common Stock at a conversion price of $1.21 at any time. In
connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company issued Series A Warrants
to purchase 2,169,422 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, Series B Warrants to
purchase 2,892,562 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and Series C Warrants
to purchase 2,169,422 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the Series A, Series
B and Series C Warrants are referred to herein as the “Warrants”). The
exercise price for the Warrants is $1.21 per share, and each class of Warrant is
exercisable for five years from the date of issuance. The Notes and
each class of the Warrants contain full-ratchet and other customary
anti-dilution protections.
The
Company and its subsidiaries also entered into a Security Agreement to secure
payment and performance of the Company’s obligations under the Notes pursuant to
which the Company and its subsidiaries granted the investors a security interest
in all of their respective property. Each subsidiary of the Company
also executed a Guaranty Agreement pursuant to which each subsidiary guaranteed
all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes. The Company also
executed a Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which the Company is
required to file a registration statement within 45 days of the Closing Date,
and the Company will use its reasonable best efforts to cause the registration
statement to be declared effective within 90 days of the Closing Date and 120
days in the event the SEC reviews the registration statement.

Results
of Operations for the Quarterly Period Ended December 31, 2009
The
following discussion and analysis summarizes the results of operations of the
Company for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2009 and
2008.
Comparison
of the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008
The
Company incurred continuing losses due to activities associated with purchasing,
installing, and testing equipment for its targeted business
activities. Funds were also utilized for making modifications and
leasehold improvements necessary to accommodate operating equipment and
personnel. Expenses during the quarter specifically included design
activities, equipment procurement, facility modifications, installation
activities, testing, financing, marketing, and employment
expenditures.
For the
three month period ended December 31, 2009 compared to the three month period
ended December 31, 2008, the Company had a net loss of $2,576,551 versus a loss
of $4,955,785, respectively, equating to a 48% decrease in net loss. The costs
are further delineated as follows:
For the
three month period ended December 31, 2009 compared to the three month period
ended December 31, 2008, the Company experienced the following changes
respectively; Officer compensation decreased 70% to $123,706 from $418,612;
consulting fees decreased 59% from $4,138,540 to $1,690,867; legal and other
professional fees increased 329% from $95,571 to $409,715; general and
administrative expenses increased 321% from $41,544 to $174,986; and, interest
expense increased 54% from $113,042 to $174,041.
During
the first fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2009 the Company had a net loss of
$0.04 per share compared to a net loss of $0.16 per share during the same period
in 2008.
33
Liquidity
and Capital Resources for the Three Month Period ended December 31,
2009
At
December 31, 2009, the Company had total assets of $17,386,867, comprised of
$2,938,054 in cash, $12,934 in receivables, $3,105,205 in prepaid expenses,
$3,513,692 in property and equipment, $7,022,891 in inventory and $439,098 in
equipment and utility deposits. In addition, the company has working
capital of $3,453,132, and showed $651,175 of net cash used in operating
activities.
In
contrast, on September 30, 2009, the Company had total assets of $11,210,977,
comprised of $57,844 in cash, $19,708 in receivables, $6,997,207 in inventory,
$66,550 in liens, $408,311 in prepaid expenses, and $3,242,466 in property,
plant and equipment. In addition, the company has a working capital deficit
of $3,704,149, and a negative cash flow from operations
of $1,740,446. The increase in assets is due primarily to the
acquisition of equipment and the decrease in capital deficit is due to debt
financing activities.
The
Company must currently rely on corporate officers, directors and outside
investors in order to meet its budget. If the Company is unable to obtain
financing from any of one of these aforementioned sources, the Company would not
be able to complete its financial obligations.
Management
is currently looking for additional capital to fund operations and complete our
corporate objectives. The Company expects to carry out its plan of business. In
addition, we may engage in joint venture activities with other companies. The
Company cannot predict the extent to which its liquidity and capital resources
will be diminished prior to the consummation of a business combination or
whether its capital will be further depleted by its operating losses. The
Company has previously, and is currently, engaged in discussions concerning
potential business acquisitions, joint ventures, and other collaborative
arrangements.

Recently
Issued Accounting Standards
In June
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R).
Also refer to FASB ASC 810-10-65, Consolidation – Overall – Transition and Open
Effective Date Information. This guidance relates to the consolidation of
variable interest entities. It eliminates the quantitative approach previously
required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity
and requires ongoing qualitative reassessments of whether an enterprise is the
primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. This guidance also requires
additional disclosures about an enterprise’s involvement in variable interest
entities. This guidance is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s fiscal
year, and interim periods within the fiscal year, beginning after November 15,
2009. The Company will adopt this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of this
guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition –
Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 updates
the existing multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance currently included
in FASB ASC 605-25. The revised guidance provides for two significant changes to
the existing multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance. The first change
relates to the determination of when the individual deliverables included in a
multiple-element arrangement may be treated as separate units of accounting.
This change will result in the requirement to separate more deliverables within
an arrangement, ultimately leading to less revenue deferral. The second change
modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across
the separately identified deliverables. Together, these changes will result in
earlier recognition of revenue and related costs for multiple-element
arrangements than under previous guidance. This guidance also expands the
disclosures required for multiple-element revenue arrangements. Effective for
interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The
Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of this guidance
on its consolidated financial statements.
34
From time
to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB that are adopted
by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management
believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet
effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements upon adoption.
CHANGES
IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON
ACCOUNTING
AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
As
disclosed in the Company’s Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on February 1, 2010, on
January 19, 2010 the Board of Directors dismissed the Company’s independent
registered public accounting firm Weinberg & Company, P.A. (“Weinberg”). The
audit firm served as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal years
ended September 30, 2009 and 2008.
During
the past two fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, Weinberg’s reports
on the consolidated financial statements of the Company did not contain any
adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified
as to any uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, but expressed a
concern regarding the ability of the Company to continue as a going
concern.
For the
past two fiscal years ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, and any subsequent
interim period through the date of termination, there were (a) no disagreements
between the Company and Weinberg on any matter of accounting principles or
practice, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which
disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of Weinberg would have
caused Weinberg to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s)
in connection with its reports as required by Item 3.04(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation
S-K; and (b) no reportable events as set forth in Item 304(a)(1)(v)(A) through
(D) of Regulation S-K have occurred.
The
Company provided Weinberg with a copy of the disclosures in the February 1, 2010
Form 8-K/A that it filed with the SEC prior to its filing with SEC, and Weinberg
provided the Company a letter indicating that it agreed with the disclosures
made to the SEC.
The
Company has appointed Mantyla McReynolds LLC of Salt Lake City, Utah, effective
January 20, 2010, as its new independent certified public accountants for its
current fiscal year ending September 30, 2010. During the Company’s
two most recent fiscal years and subsequent interim period on or prior to
January 20, 2010, the Company did not consult with the Mantyla McReynolds LLC
regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction,
either completed or propose, or any of the matters or events set forth in Item
304(a)(2) of Regulation S-K.

CERTAIN
RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS,
AND
DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
During
fiscal year ended September 30, 2009, the Company issued Chad A. Curtis, the
Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and President, and the beneficial owner
of approximately 85% of the Company’s voting capital stock, an aggregate of
25,000,000 shares of Common Stock for consulting services. These
shares were valued at $3,750,000, and they were issued directly to Mr. Curtis in
his individual capacity. Mr. Curtis’ consulting services, which were
performed between January 1, 2008 and October 1, 2009, have included his efforts
to contact potential customers on behalf of the Company, advising the Company
regarding management and operational issues, and negotiating with certain
Company vendors to secure assets and supply and service contracts. In

commencement of operations at the Company's tire recycling facility in Magog,
Quebec. In connection with this transaction, Mr. Curtis helped the
Company secure raw material (scrap rubber tires) for the Magog facility, Mr.
Curtis was involved in the procurement of rubber recycling machinery and
equipment at this facility, and he helped the Company put this machinery and
equipment into operation as quickly as possible. In addition, Mr.
Curtis facilitated the Company’s execution of contracts for the sale of its
recycled rubber products, and Mr. Curtis was involved and helped facilitate the
incorporation of Magnum Engineering International, Inc. (MEI), one of the
Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries.
During
the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009, Mr. Curtis was also directly issued
25,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, which were valued at
$14,000,000. As described herein, Mr. Curtis was issued these shares
in consideration of the provision of the consulting services described in this
paragraph, as well as his execution of a resignation agreement. Mr.
Curtis’ consulting services included, among other things, the Company’s use of
his close working relationship with Sekhar Research Innovations Sdn Bhd (“SRI”) in Malaysia,
which has enabled the Company to develop partnerships and access information
regarding key technologies and expertise in the tire recycling and processing
industry. Mr. Curtis’ efforts with SRI also enabled the Company to
negotiate and secure an exclusive rights and licensing technology agreement with
SRI, which includes an array of next generation cost saving custom compounds,
process technology and SRI know-how that enables the
41
Company
to reconstitute, liquefy and specially blend rubber into ethylene propylene
diene monomer (EPDM) rubber powders and compounds.
In
addition to Mr. Curtis’ consulting services with SRI, Mr. Curtis helped the
Company acquire its tire recycling facility in Hudson, Colorado. Mr.
Curtis’ services included assistance with the negotiation and purchase of this
property, and he helped the Company negotiate and acquire a portable shredding
system for this facility. Mr. Curtis also introduced the Company to
its new powder production equipment manufacturer and builder, and he was
directly involved in developing plans to establish rubber crumb and powder
production and activation plants for the Company’s Hudson, Colorado
facility.
The
25,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock were also issued to
Mr. Curtis in consideration of his execution of a resignation agreement
effective October 1, 2009 (the “Resignation
Agreement”). Pursuant to this resignation agreement, Mr.
Curtis accepted $250,000 and the 25,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock as full and final compensation for the services provided under
the January 1, 2008 Consulting Agreement between Mr. Curtis and the Company, as
modified by the addendum between Mr. Curtis and the Company dated July 1, 2008
(collectively referred to herein as the “2008 Consulting
Agreement”). The Resignation Agreement provided that Mr.
Curtis would waive and discharge the Company for any further obligations,
actions and liabilities, whether known or unknown, arising from or related to
the 2008 Consulting Agreement.
During
the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009, Mr. Curtis was also issued 120,968
shares of Common Stock valued at $150,000 for Consulting Services that he
provided to the Company during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008 and
September 30, 2009. These shares were issued to Mr. Curtis in
consideration of his provision of consulting services to the Company under the
January 1, 2008 Consulting Agreement. This agreement provided in part
that Mr. Curtis would be paid $10,000 per month from the Company.
The
Company does not currently maintain policies and procedures for the review,
approval or ratification of transactions with “related persons” as described in
Item 404 of Regulation S-K. However, the Company intends to create
such policies and procedures in the future.
Through
his direct beneficial ownership of (i) 31,707,792 shares of voting Common Stock,
which represents 43.66% of the issued and outstanding voting Common Stock; (ii)
25,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, each of which has the right to
one vote for each share of Common Stock into which a share of Series B Preferred
Stock can be converted, and which represents 83% of the issued and outstanding
voting Series B Preferred Stock, and (iii) 10,000,000 shares of Series A
Preferred Stock, each share of which is entitled to the equivalent of twenty
voting shares of Common Stock, Mr. Curtis currently exercises voting power over
approximately 85% of the Company’s capital stock.
During
the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008, the Company’s former president and
chief executive officer, Chad A. Curtis, received 7,352,335 shares of Common
Stock for consulting fees and in lieu of cash compensation and expenses incurred
on behalf of the Company. These 7,352,335 shares of Common Stock were
valued at $1,279,515.

Director
Independence
Our
Common Stock trades on the OTC Bulletin Board. As such, we are not
currently subject to corporate governance standards of listed companies, which
require, among other things, that the majority of the board of directors be
independent. We are not currently subject to corporate governance
standards defining the independence of our directors, and we have chosen to
define an “independent” director in accordance with the NASDAQ Global Market’s
requirements for independent directors. We do not list the
“independent” director definition we use on our Internet website.
Currently,
Mr. Glusic serves as the sole member of our Board of Directors, and he is the
only member of management who also serves on the Board of
Directors. Under the NASDAQ rules, we have determined that Mr. Glusic
currently does not qualify as an independent director. In addition,
Mr. Michel Boux, who served as a director of the Company until his resignation
on December 29, 2009, did not qualify as an independent director when he served
on the Board of Directors.
Our Board
of Directors will review at least annually the independence of each director.
During these reviews, our Board of Directors will consider transactions and
relationships between each director (and his or her immediate family and
affiliates) and us and our management to determine whether any such transactions
or relationships are inconsistent with a determination that the director was
independent. The Board of Directors will conduct its annual review of director
independence and to determine if any transactions or relationships exist that
would disqualify any of the individuals who then served as a director under the
rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market, or require disclosure under SEC
rules.
SECURITIES
AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
POSITION
ON CERTAIN INDEMNIFICATION
Our
directors and officers are indemnified by our articles of incorporation against
amounts actually and necessarily incurred by them in connection with the defense
of any action, suit, or proceeding in which they are a party by reason of being
or having been directors or officers of Magnum to the fullest extent authorized
by the Nevada General Corporation Law, as may be amended from time to
time. Our articles of incorporation provide that none of our
directors or officers shall be personally liable for monetary damages for breach
of any fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for liability (i) for any
breach of the officer’s or director’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its
stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or (iii) for any
transaction from which the officer or director derived any improper personal
benefit. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to such directors, officers, and controlling
persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised
that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than the
payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by such director, officer, or
controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding,
is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with
the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Board of Directors and Stockholders:
Magnum
d’Or Resources, Inc.
We have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Magnum d’Or Resources,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2009 and 2008, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for
the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the consolidated financial statements are free of material
misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we
engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated 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 consolidated financial position of Magnum d’Or
Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2009 and 2008, and the
results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, 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 1
to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has recurring losses from
operations, negative cash flows from operations and a working capital deficit,
which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as going
concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Policies
Business
Description
Magnum
d’Or Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) was
incorporated on September 3, 1999, under the laws of the State of
Nevada. The Company is engaged in the business of providing modified
sources of recycled rubber products, reconstituted rubber derivatives, and
rubber powders to various distributors and manufacturers. It
currently has one production facility located in Magog, Canada
Going
Concern
Since its
inception, the Company has generated insignificant revenues and has incurred
accumulated losses of $45,878,841 through September 30, 2009.
The
future success of the Company is dependent on its ability to attain additional
capital funds to purchase equipment and construct facilities to fulfill its
current contractual commitments, and, ultimately attain future profitable
operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be
successful in obtaining such financing, or that it will attain positive cash
flow from operations.
Business
History
Since its
inception in 1999, the Company evolved through several transitions to its
present mode. During its evolution, it operated as an internet
information company, a mining exploration company, and a business acquisition
company.
In
December 2006, the Company’s then outstanding preferred stock, and thus voting
control of the Company, was acquired by an individual for the express purpose of
pursuing the Company’s current business strategy of producing high quality
rubber powder and thermoplastics.
In
December 2007, the Company acquired licensing rights to a number of patents and
processes that allowed rubber to be reconstituted, added to raw virgin rubber in
various quantities, specially blended into various other polymers, and mixed
into EPDM compounds. These license agreements were terminated on
September 28, 2008 and replaced by new and more advanced technologies agreements
developed by Sekhar Research Innovations of Malaysia (see below and Notes 9 and
11).
In May
2008, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Recyclage Magnum Canada
(“RMC”), into
which the Company subsequently transferred all production equipment for the
purpose of establishing its first North American production
facility. The facility is located in Magog, Quebec, Canada for
strategic geographical and commercial purposes. Equipment
installation and testing was performed throughout the summer and fall of
2008. Production activities commenced during November of 2008, thus
transforming the Company from a development stage entity to an operational
entity.
In
October 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with Sekhar Research
Innovations of Malaysia to acquire use of technologically advanced processes and
equipment that were thought to be more compatible with overall Company product
development and market strategy. The Company will use these processes
to disintegrate scrap tires, remove fibers and metal wire, produce crumb rubber,
and liquefy recycled raw materials into various rubber and rubber-like
products.
In June 2009, the Company formed
another wholly-owned subsidiary, Magnum Recycling USA (“MRUSA”), for the purpose of establishing its
first US operations. In August 2009, a tire disposal facility located
in Hudson, CO was acquired to meet this goal and establish a centralized US
production and distribution facility (see Note 2). The site’s central
location allows access to raw materials and delivery throughout the USA and
North America.

Basis of presentation and
consolidation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Magnum d’Or Resources,
Inc. and its subsidiaries, Recyclage Magnum Canada, Inc. and Magnum Recycling
USA, Inc. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated.
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and
disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Revenue
recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue from the sales of products in accordance with
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff
Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, when
persuasive evidence of an order arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the
sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably
assured. Generally, these criteria are met at the time the product is
shipped to customers when title and risk of loss have
transferred. Tipping fees earned from the Company’s tire disposal
services are recognized when delivery of the tires is accepted at each of the
Company’s two facilities.
Cash and cash
equivalents
For
financial reporting purpose, the Company considers all highly liquid investments
purchased with original maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
Accounts
receivable
Accounts
receivable are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less
allowance for any uncollectible amounts. The Company uses the
allowance method to account for uncollectible trade receivable
balances. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection
of the full amount is no longer probable. At September 30, 2009, the
allowance for doubtful accounts was zero. At September 30, 2008, the
Company had no accounts receivables.
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or
market. No inventory was held at September 30, 2008.
Inventory
as of September 30, 2009 consists of the following:
Raw
materials
|
$ | 6,971,698 | ||
Work
in process
|
12,958 | |||
Finished
goods
|
12,551 | |||
Total
|
$ | 6,997,207 |
Raw
materials are considered long-term assets as they are not expected to be
processed and sold by the end of the subsequent fiscal year. Finished
goods and work in process are considered current assets as they are expected to
be sold before the end of the subsequent fiscal year.
F -
10
Property, plant and
equipment
Property,
plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation has been
computed using the straight-line method based upon estimated useful lives of ten
years for production equipment and three to five years for software and computer
equipment. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of
the remaining term of the lease, or the economic useful life.
Long-lived
assets
The
Company reviews and evaluated its long-lived assets for impairment when events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not
be recoverable. Impairment is considered to exist if the total
estimated future cash flows on an undiscounted basis are less than the carrying
amount of the assets, including goodwill, if any. An impairment loss
is measured and recorded based on discounted estimated future cash
flows. In estimating future cash flows, assets are grouped at the
lowest level for which there is identifiable cash flows that are largely
independent of future cash flows from other asset groups. Based upon
management’s assessment, there were no indicators of impairment of the Company’s
long lived assets as of September 30, 2009 or 2008.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income tax using the liability approach and allows for
recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the
liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of
temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax
purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets
if it is more likely than not these items will expire before either the Company
is able to realize their benefits, or that future realization is
uncertain.
There has
been no provision for U.S. federal, state, or foreign income taxes for any
period because the Company has incurred losses in all periods and for all
jurisdictions since inception.
Deferred
income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and
the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of
deferred tax assets are as follows:

Net deferred tax assets
|
$ | - | $ | - |
Realization
of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, if any, the timing and
amount of which are uncertain. Accordingly, the net deferred tax
assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance. As of
September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of
$20,344,309 and $8,502,887, respectively for federal and state income tax
purposes. These carryforwards, if not utilized to offset taxable
income, begin to expire in 2019. Utilization of the net operating
loss may be subject to substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change
limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state
provisions. The annual limitation could result in the expiration of
the net operating loss before utilization. The Company has available
as of September 30, 2009 unused operating loss carryforwards totaling
$20,344,309 which expire through 2029.
The
Company adopted authoritative guidance of FASB for accounting for uncertainty in
income taxes on October 1, 2007. The authoritative guidance
prescribes a recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet
before being recognized in the financial statements and provides guidance on
recognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in
interim periods, disclosure and transition issues. The adoption of
the authoritative guidance had no impact on the Company’s balance sheets or
statements of operations.
F -
11
Share-based
payments
The
Company periodically issues and options and warrants to purchase shares of the
Company’s Common Stock to employees and non-employees for services and for
financing costs. Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant
date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over
the requisite service period. Options vest and expire according to
terms established at the grant date.
Loss per
Share
Basic
loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number
of common shares outstanding during the period. The diluted earnings
per share calculation give effect to all potentially dilutive common shares
outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method for warrants and
options and the if-converted method for convertible debentures.
As of
September 30, 2009 and 2008, Common Stock equivalents were composed of warrants
convertible into 300,000 and 1,432,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and
options convertible into 0 and 500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock,
respectively. For the years ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the
conversion of the options and warrants has been excluded from the calculation of
dilutive earnings per share, as the effects of such conversion would be
anti-dilutive.
Financial Assets and
Liabilities Measured at Fair Value
Effective
October 1, 2008, fair value measurements are determined by the Company’s
adoption of authoritative guidance issued by the FASB, with the exception of the
application of the statement to non-recurring, non-financial assets and
liabilities as permitted. The adoption of the authoritative guidance
did not have a material impact on the Company’s fair value
measurements. Fair value is defined in the authoritative guidance as
the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. A fair value hierarchy was established, which
prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value into three broad levels as
follows:
Level 1—Quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2—Inputs,
other than the quoted prices in active markets, are observable either directly
or indirectly.
Level 3—Unobservable
inputs based on the Company’s assumptions.
The
Company is required to use of observable market data if such data is available
without undue cost and effort.
At
September 30, 2009 and 2008, the carrying amounts of financial instruments,
including cash, accounts and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued
liabilities, and notes payable approximate fair value because of their short
maturity.

Foreign Currency
Adjustments
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States
dollars (USD). The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiary
Recyclage Magnum Canada (“RMC”), is the
Canadian dollar (CND). Capital accounts of RMC are translated into
United States dollars from CND at their historical exchange rates when the
capital transactions occurred. Assets and liabilities are translated
at the exchange rates as of balance sheet date. Income and
expenditures are translated at the average exchange rate of the
period.

Concentration of Credit
Risk
The
Company identifies financial instruments of cash and accounts receivable that
potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk.
The
Company maintains its cash at several financial institutions located within the
United States (US) and Canada. At times, the balance(s) may exceed
the US Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit of $250,000 per
account and/or the Canadian Deposit Insurance Corporation (CDIC) $100,000
insurance limit for each account. As of September 30, 2009 the
Company had no balances in excess of the insured limits compared to a $410,042
excess of the insured limits on September 30, 2008.
Reclassification
In
presenting the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2008, the
Company presented $131,042 deposits for equipment purchases as prepaid
expenses. In presenting the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at
September 30, 2009, the Company has reclassified the balance of $131,042 to
deposit for equipment purchase.
Recent accounting
pronouncements
In
December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on business
combinations. The guidance retains the fundamental requirements that
the acquisition method of accounting (previously referred to as the purchase
method of accounting) be used for all business combinations, but requires a
number of changes, including changes in the way assets and liabilities are
recognized and measured as a result of business combinations. It also
requires the capitalization of in-process research and development at fair value
and requires the expensing of acquisition-related costs as
incurred. This guidance will be applicable to business combinations
completed after July 1, 2009. The Company believes adopting the new
guidance will significantly impact its financial statements.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on non-controlling
interests in consolidated financial statements to establish accounting and
reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the
deconsolidation of a subsidiary. It is intended to eliminate the
diversity in practice regarding the accounting for transactions between equity
and non-controlling interests by requiring that they be treated as equity
transactions. Further, it requires consolidated net income to be
reported at amounts that include the amounts attributable to both the parent and
the non-controlling interest. The new guidance also establishes a
single method of accounting for changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a
subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation, requires that a parent
recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated,
requires expanded disclosures in the consolidated financial statements that
clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent’s owners
and the interests of the non-controlling owners of a subsidiary, among
others. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on
or after December 15, 2008, with early adoption permitted, and it is to be
applied prospectively. The Company believes adopting the new guidance
will not significantly impact its financial statements.
F -
13
In June
2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on an amendment of accounting for
transfers of financial assets, and seeks to improve the relevance and
comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its
financial statements about transfers of financial assets; the effects of the
transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a
transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial
assets. The authoritative guidance eliminates the concept of a
qualifying special-purpose entity, creates more stringent conditions for
reporting a transfer of a portion of a financial asset as a sale, clarifies
other sale-accounting criteria, and changes the initial measurement of a
transferor’s interest in transferred financial assets. The
authoritative guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods
beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company believes adopting
the new guidance will not significantly impact its financial
statements.
In June
2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on consolidation of variable
interest entities, which requires an enterprise to determine whether its
variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a
variable interest entity. The primary beneficiary of a variable
interest entity is the enterprise that has both (1) the power to direct the
activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the
entity’s economic performance, and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of
the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity
or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be
significant to the variable interest entity. The authoritative
guidance requires ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary
beneficiary of a variable interest entity and is effective for interim and
annual reporting periods beginning after November 15, 2009. The
Company believes adopting the new guidance will not significantly impact its
financial statements.
In
October 2009, the FASB, issued updates to revenue recognition for arrangements
with multiple deliverables and accounting for revenue arrangements that include
software elements. Under the new guidance on arrangements that
include software elements, tangible products that have software components that
are essential to the functionality of the tangible product will no longer be
within the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance, and
software-enabled products will now be subject to other relevant revenue
recognition guidance. The authoritative guidance is effective for
interim or annual periods beginning after June 15, 2010, with early
adoption permitted. The Company believes adopting the new guidance
will not significantly impact its financial statements.
Other
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
consolidated financial statements.
Note
2 – Asset acquisition
On
January 31, 2009, the Company signed a letter of intent (“LOI”) with Tire
Recycling, Inc. of Hudson, Colorado (“TRI”) to acquire all
of its holdings and assets (the “Hudson
assets”). TRI owned and operated a facility consisting of
buildings, equipment, and scrap tire inventory computed to be in excess of
310,000 tons of scrap tires. The facility is located on a parcel of
120 acres of commercially zoned land located in rural Weld County,
Colorado. On April 1, 2009, the Company learned that TRI was in
Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization. The Company continued to
negotiate a purchase agreement under the rules associated with Chapter 11
Bankruptcy law.
In June
2009, all TRI assets were subsequently assigned to a court appointed Trustee to
administer the sale of the TRI assets. This event prompted Magnum to
acquire several secured and unsecured liens of TRI in a move to solidify its
standing with the Trustee and the bankruptcy court. Magnum was able
to acquire all secured liens currently held against the property and its
assets.
During
this period Magnum negotiated a successful purchase from the Trustee of the
Hudson assets for the amount of $6,500,000. The Federal Bankruptcy
Court subsequently approved the offer after statutory notice, bid procedure
period, and final hearings were completed and satisfied.
On August
4, 2009 the Federal Bankruptcy Court in Colorado approved the TRI asset sale to
Magnum and subsequently issued a motion for the sale of Hudson assets to
Magnum. Closing and transfer of the purchased assets took place on
August 25, 2009. The components of the purchase price and the

$2,693,656 In addition, the Company previously entered into a contract with a
Malaysian company that specializes in developing rubber compounds, processing
techniques, and specialized equipment for production of scrap rubber (see Note
11). Costs associated with this contract include certain amounts
allocated to the development and purchase of equipment. The Company
made payments aggregating $390,558 through September 30, 2009 that have been
included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as Long Term - Deposits
for Equipment. These payments made will be credited to the total

Note
5 – Notes Payable, Accrued Interest and Stockholder Loans and
Advances
8% Convertible Note
Payable
On
January 12, 2007, the Company issued a $50,000 convertible promissory note to an
individual with interest payable semi-annually at the rate of
8%. This note matured on January 31, 2008. The Company
received an extension from the note holder on May 19, 2008, to extend the
maturity of this note until November 19, 2008, with the same terms as the
original note. The Company received a further extension from the note
holder on February 5, 2009, to extend the maturity of this note until April 19,
2009, with the same terms as the original note. On February 20, 2009,
the Company received a request to convert the note to Common Stock in accordance
with the provisions outlined in the issued promissory note, which determined the
conversion price to be $0.2525. Based on this conversion rate,
198,050 shares of Common Stock were issued. Accrued interest payable
on this note as of the conversion date totaled $8,559, and was also converted to
stock. Based on a conversion rate of $0.505, 16,950 shares of Common
Stock were issued (also see Note 6).
12% Notes
Payable
During
2008, the Company issued an aggregate of $1,382,000 of 12% promissory notes with
warrants to unrelated individuals, interest at the rate of 12% per annum, due
October thru November 2009.
During
2009, warrants to purchase 1,082,000 shares of Common Stock were exercised at
the face amount of $1.00 per share by debt holders of several 12% promissory
notes. An equal amount of debt associated with these notes was
retired when the note holders exercised their warrant options to purchase Common
Stock. The accrued interest associated with the promissory notes were
also paid in Common Stock at the market value on the respective conversion
dates.
During
2009, the Company issued $300,000 of 12% promissory notes with warrants to
unrelated individuals. These notes mature October thru December 2010
and are recorded as current debt in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheet.
During
2009, $41,150 of 12% promissory notes were issued with unrelated
individuals. These notes mature April through May 2011 and are
recorded as long term debt in the accompanying consolidated balance
sheet.
F -
16
All of
the 12% Notes issued to date are general unsecured obligations of the
Company. They have a total accrued interest of $133,464 payable as of
September 30, 2009 which is recorded in accrued interest in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet.
The
aggregate value of the warrants issued in connection with the 12% Notes were
valued at $1,952,218 using the Black Scholes pricing model using the following
assumptions; risk-free interest rates ranging from 2.88% to 3.98%; dividend
yield of 0%; volatility factors of expected market price of Common Stock ranging

Business
Description
Magnum
d’Or Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) was
incorporated on September 3, 1999, under the laws of the State of Nevada. Since
its inception, the Company evolved through several transitions to its present
mode. During its evolution, it operated as an internet information company, a
junior resource mining company, and a business acquisition company. These
ventures proved to be marginally effective.
Currently
the Company is engaged in the business of providing modified sources of recycled
rubber products, reconstituted rubber derivatives, and rubber powders to various
distributors and manufacturers. It currently has two production facilities
located in Magog, Canada and Hudson, CO. It intends to develop
additional facilities that produce various wholesale rubber products, high
quality reconstituted rubber powders, specialty blend malleable materials,
thermoplastics and thermoplastics elastomers.
The
Company intends to acquire additional equipment, facilities and resources to
allow it to strategically provide modified sources of recycled rubber products,
reconstituted rubber derivatives, and high quality rubber powders to various
distributors and manufacturers. This will be accomplished through wholly owned
and joint venture facilities that may be fabricated or acquired as the market
allows. The Company intends on establishing technical facilities,
either coincident with or separate from its production facilities, for purposes
of research and development activities. It may also enter into
strategic alliances with educational institutions and/or research firms to
advance its market research and develop innovative products and solutions
associated with its core recycling business.
Business
History
During
October 2005, the Company formed Sunrise Mining Corporation (“Sunrise”), which
became a wholly-owned subsidiary. Subsequent to Sunrise’s incorporation, the
Company transferred all of the rights to its mining operations to Sunrise.
During January 2007, the Company announced that it planned to spin-off its
wholly owned subsidiary, Sunrise Mining Corporation, to its
stockholders. The spin-off was completed in November
2007.
During
December 2006, the Company was acquired by a new management group and
restructured for the express purpose of pursuing and consummating a merger
between the Company and Terra Elastomer Technologies S.L., a private European
company based in Düsseldorf, Germany. In December 2007 the Merger was abandoned
due to unexpected complexities, market financing interruptions and
insurmountable cost considerations.
During
December 2007, the Company acquired licensing rights to a number of patents and
processes that allowed rubber to be reconstituted, added to raw virgin rubber in
various quantities, specially blended into various other polymers, and mixed
into EPDM compounds. These license agreements were terminated on
September 28, 2008 and replaced by new and more advanced technologies agreements
developed by Sekhar Research Innovations of Malaysia (see below and Note
11).
In May
2008, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Recyclage Magnum Canada
(“RMC”), into
which the Company subsequently transferred all production equipment for the
purpose of establishing its first North American production
facility. The facility is located in Magog, Quebec, Canada for
strategic geographical and commercial purposes. Equipment
installation and testing was performed throughout the summer and fall of 2008,
and production activities commenced at the Magog, Quebec facility during
November of 2008.
During
this same period the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Sekhar
Research Innovations of Malaysia (October 2008) to acquire use of
technologically advanced patents, processes, and equipment that were thought to
be more compatible with overall Company product development and market strategy.
The Company will use these patented processes to disintegrate scrap tires,
remove fibers and metal wire, produce crumb rubber and liquefy recycled raw
materials into various rubber and rubber-like products.

28
In June
2009, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary in the State of Nevada titled
Magnum Recycling USA (“MRUSA”) for the
purpose of establishing the Company’s first operations in the United
States. In August 2009, MRUSA acquired a tire disposal
facility/monofill located in Hudson, Colorado to establish a centralized U.S.
production and distribution point.
In
October 2009, the Company formed another wholly-owned subsidiary, Magnum
Engineering (“MEI”) for the express
purpose of providing rubber recycling equipment engineering and consulting
related services to the Company and to other interested third
parties.
Basis of
Presentation
These
condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company,
without audit, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”) for
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article
8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating
results for the three month period ended December 31, 2009, are not necessarily
indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September
30, 2010. The condensed consolidated balance sheet information as of September
30, 2009 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included
in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. These interim financial statements
should be read in conjunction with that report.
The
Company operates in one business segment, the development of recycling rubber
tires into various rubber products. Significant accounting principles followed
by the Company and the methods of applying those principles, which materially
affect the determination of financial position and cash flows, are summarized
below:
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Consolidation
Policy
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Magnum
d’Or Resources, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Recyclage Magnum Canada,
Inc., Magnum Recycling USA, Inc, and Magnum Engineering. Intercompany accounts
and transactions have been eliminated.
Foreign Currency
Adjustments
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in United States
dollars (USD). The functional currency of the Company’s foreign subsidiary is
the Canadian dollar (CND). Assets and liabilities of this foreign subsidiary are
translated into United States dollars at currency exchange rates in effect at
the end of the periods reported. Equity accounts are translated at historical
rates corresponding to the date of transaction. Revenues and expenses are
translated at average exchange rates in effect for the periods reported. Gains
and losses resulting from translation of foreign subsidiary financial statements
into U.S. dollars are included as a separate component of stockholders’
equity.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts
receivable are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less
allowance for any uncollectible amounts. The Company uses the
allowance method to account for uncollectible trade receivable
balances. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection
of the full amount is no longer probable.
F -
29
Inventories
At
December 31, 2009, inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a
first-in, first-out basis) or market. Provisions to value the inventory at the
lower of the actual cost to purchase and / or manufacture the
inventory, or the current estimated market value of the inventory, are based
upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. The Company also
performs evaluations of inventory and records a provision for estimated excess
and obsolete items based upon forecasted demand, and any other known factors at
the time. No provision existed as of December 31,
2009. Raw materials are primarily considered long-term assets as they
are not expected to be manufactured and sold by the end of the subsequent fiscal
year. Finished goods are considered current assets as they are expected to be
sold before the end of the subsequent fiscal year. Inventory as of
December 31, 2009 consists of the following:
Raw
materials
|
$ | 6,971,698 | ||
Finished
Goods
|
51,193 | |||
Total
|
$ | 7,022,891 |
Property, plant and
equipment
Property,
plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation has been computed using the
straight-line method based upon estimated useful lives of ten years for
production equipment and three to five years for software and computer
equipment. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the
remaining term of the lease, or the economic useful
life.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income tax using an asset and liability approach and allows
for recognition of deferred tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and
liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of
temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A
valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely
than not these items will expire before either the Company is able to realize
their benefits, or that future realization is uncertain.
There has
been no provision for U.S. federal, state, or foreign income taxes for any
period because the Company has incurred losses in all periods and for all
jurisdictions since inception.
Deferred
income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and
the amounts used for income tax purposes. The Company has identified
net deferred tax assets, primarily made up of cumulative net operating loss
carryforwards. However, the Company has also recorded a 100%
valuation allowance for these deferred tax assets based on the amount expected
to be realized.
In
accounting for unrecognized tax benefits, a tax position is required to meet a
prescribed recognition threshold before being recognized in the financial
statements. Based on all known facts and circumstances and current tax law, the
Company believes that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of
December 31, 2009, is not material to its results of operations, financial
condition or cash flows. The Company also believes that the total
amount of unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2009, if recognized would
not have a material effect on its effective tax rate. The Company further
believes that there are no tax provisions for which it is more likely than not,
based on current tax law and policy, that the unrecognized tax benefits will
significantly increase or decrease over the next 12 months producing,
individually or in the aggregate, a material effect on the Company’s results of
operations, financial condition, or cash flows.
Asset Retirement
Obligations
The
Company accounts for asset retirement obligations in accordance with ASC
410-20. Under this standard, a liability is recognized for the fair
value of legally required asset retirement obligations associated with
long-lived assets in the period in which the retirement obligations are incurred
and the liability can be reasonably estimated. The Company capitalizes the
associated asset retirement costs as part of the carrying amount of the
long-lived asset. The liability is initially measured at fair value and
subsequently is adjusted for accretion expense and changes in the amount of
timing of the estimated cash flows.
F -
30
Going
Concern
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate the
continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company’s operations are
progressing forward; however, the Company has generated no significant revenue,
has an accumulated deficit of $48,455,392 and a negative cash flow from
operations of $651,175 for the three months ended December 31,
2009. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.
The
future success of the Company is dependent on its ability to obtain additional
capital funds to purchase equipment and construct facilities to fulfill its
current contractual commitments, and, ultimately attain future profitable
operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in
obtaining such financing, or that it will attain positive cash flow from
operations.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
The
Company accounts for fair value in accordance with ASC 820-10 with respect to
fair value measurements of (a) non-financial assets and liabilities that
are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the Company’s financial statements
on a recurring basis (at least annually) and (b) all financial assets and
liabilities. ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the exit price, or the amount that
would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants as of the measurement
date.
ASC
820-10 establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that
maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable
inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.
Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset
or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of
the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s
assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset
or liability developed based upon the best information available in the
circumstances. The hierarchy is broken down into three levels. Level 1
inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities in active markets. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for
the asset or liability. Categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based
upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value
measurement.
The
following table provides the assets and liabilities carried at fair value
measured on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2009:

The
derivative liabilities are measured at fair value using quoted market prices and
estimated volatility factors, and are classified within Level 3 of the
valuation hierarchy. There were no changes in the valuation techniques during
the three months ended December 31, 2009. The Company recorded a gain
from the derivative liability of $512,799 which is recorded as gain on derivate
in the statement of operations.

Stock Based
Compensation
The
Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and
non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing
costs. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and
vesting to employees using ASC 718-10, and for all share-based payments granted
based on the requirements of ASC 718-10. The Company accounts for stock option
and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with ASC
505-50: whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the
measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance
commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to
earn the equity instruments is complete.
Net Loss per
Share
The net
loss per share has been computed using the weighted-average number common shares
outstanding during the three months ending December 31, 2009. As of
December 31, 2009, potentially dilutive convertible notes payable, options and
warrants to purchase common stock aggregating 2,892,562, zero, and 7,231,406
shares respectively, were outstanding and not considered because their effect
would have been anti-dilutive.
Accounting Pronouncements
Issued Not Yet Adopted
In June
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation
No. 46(R). Also refer to FASB ASC 810-10-65, Consolidation – Overall – Transition
and Open Effective Date Information. This guidance relates to the
consolidation of variable interest entities. It eliminates the quantitative
approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a
variable interest entity and requires ongoing qualitative reassessments of
whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity.
This guidance also requires additional disclosures about an enterprise’s
involvement in variable interest entities. This guidance is effective as of the
beginning of an entity’s fiscal year, and interim periods within the fiscal
year, beginning after November 15, 2009. The Company will adopt this guidance in
the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company is currently evaluating the
potential impact, if any, of this guidance on its consolidated financial
statements.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition – Multiple
Deliverable Revenue Arrangements (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 updates the
existing multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance currently included in
FASB ASC 605-25. The revised guidance provides for two significant changes to
the existing multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance. The first change
relates to the determination of when the individual deliverables included in a
multiple-element arrangement may be treated as separate units of accounting.
This change will result in the requirement to separate more deliverables within
an arrangement, ultimately leading to less revenue deferral. The second change
modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across
the separately identified deliverables. Together, these changes will result in
earlier recognition of revenue and related costs for multiple-element
arrangements than under previous guidance. This guidance also expands the
disclosures required for multiple-element revenue arrangements. Effective for
interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009. The
Company is currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of this guidance
on its consolidated financial statements.
From time
to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB that are adopted
by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management
believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet
effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements upon adoption.

Note
6 – Secured Convertible Note Financing
On
December 18, 2009 the Company entered into an agreement with Chardan Capital
Markets, LLC as exclusive placement agent to procure equity based financing for
the Company. On December 23, 2009 the Company completed a financing
with institutional investors involving the issuance of $3,500,000 of 9% secured
convertible notes payable due in one year, plus warrants. The notes
are convertible into the Company’s common shares based upon a fixed conversion
price of $1.21, but are subject to full-ratchet anti-dilution protection if the
Company sells shares or share-indexed financing instruments at less than the
conversion price. The holders have the option to redeem the notes for
cash in the event of defaults and certain other contingent events, including a
change in control event and events related to the common stock into which the
instrument was convertible, registration and listing (and maintenance thereof)
of our common stock and filing of reports with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. In addition, the Company extended registration rights to the holders
that require registration and continuing effectiveness thereof. In
connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company issued Series A warrants
to purchase 2,169,422 shares of the Company’s common stock, Series B warrants to
purchase 2,892,562 shares of the Company’s common stock, and Series C warrants
to purchase 2,169,422 shares of the Company’s common stock. The
exercise price for the warrants is $1.21 per share, and each class of warrant is
exercisable for five, one, and five years, respectively, from the date of
issuance.
The
Company received net proceeds of $3,415,000 from the financing
arrangement. Incremental, direct financing costs of $295,000, which
includes $85,000 withheld from the note balance are included in deferred bond
acquisition costs and are subject to amortization using the effective
method. Accumulated amortization of deferred financing costs, which
is included in interest expense, during the current quarterly period, amounted
to $6,557.
In the
Company’s evaluation of the financing arrangement, it was concluded that the
conversion features were not afforded the exemption as a conventional
convertible instrument due to the anti-dilution protection; and it did not
otherwise meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards for
equity classification. Since equity classification is not available for the
conversion feature, the Company was required to bifurcate the embedded
conversion feature and carry it as a derivative liability, at fair value (see
Note 6). The Company also concluded that the default put required bifurcation
because, while puts on debt instruments are generally considered clearly and
closely related to the host, the default put is indexed to certain events and
premiums that are not associated debt instruments. The Company
combined all embedded features that required bifurcation into one compound
instrument that is carried as a component of derivative liabilities. The Company
determined that the investor warrants did not meet the conditions for equity
classification. Therefore, the investor warrants are also required to be carried
as a derivative liability, at fair value. Derivative financial
instruments are carried initially and subsequently at their fair
values.
The
Company estimated the fair value of the derivative warrants and the compound
derivative on the inception dates, and subsequently, using the lattice valuation
technique, specifically the binomial model, because that technique embodies all
of the assumptions (including credit risk, interest risk, stock price volatility
and conversion behavior estimates) that are necessary to fair value complex
compound derivative instruments. See Note 7.
Note
7 – Derivative Liabilities
Derivative
financial instruments, as defined in ASC 815-10-15-83 Derivatives and
Hedging (pre-Codification FAS No. 133 Accounting for Derivative
Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities), consist of financial
instruments or other contracts that contain a notional amount and one or more
underlying (e.g. interest rate, security price or other variable), require no
initial net investment and permit net settlement. Derivative
financial instruments may be free-standing or embedded in other financial
instruments. Further, derivative financial instruments are initially, and
subsequently, measured at fair value and recorded as liabilities or, in rare
instances, assets.
The
Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge
exposures to cash-flow, market or foreign-currency risks. However, the Company
has entered into certain other financial instruments and contracts, such as debt
financing arrangements, and freestanding warrants with features that are either
(i) not afforded equity classification, (ii) embody risks not clearly and
closely related to host contracts, or (iii) may be net-cash settled by the
counterparty. As required by ASC 815, these instruments are required
to be carried as derivative liabilities, at fair value, in the financial
statements.
The
conversion feature of the Company’s $3,500,000 convertible debt as disclosed in
Note 6, and the warrants issued with this debt, do not have fixed settlement
provisions because their conversion and exercise prices, respectively, may be
lowered if the Company issues securities at lower prices in the
future. The Company was required to include the reset provisions in
order to protect the debenture holders from the potential dilution associated
with future financings. In accordance with ASC 815-10, the conversion
feature of the debentures was separated from the host contract, the debenture,
and recognized as an embedded derivative instrument. Both the
conversion feature of the debt and the warrants have been characterized as
derivative liabilities. ASC 815-10 requires that the fair value of these
liabilities be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change
in value reported in the statement of operations.
F -
36
The
Company measures the fair value of derivative financial instruments using
various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered to be
consistent with the objective of measuring fair value. In selecting the
appropriate technique, the Company considers, among other factors, the nature of
the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of
settlement. For complex derivative instruments, such as embedded conversion
options, puts and redemption features embedded in hybrid debt instruments, the
Company generally uses a lattice valuation technique, specifically the binomial
model, and the Monte Carlo Simulation valuation technique because these
techniques embody all of the requisite assumptions (including credit risk,
interest-rate risk and exercise/conversion behaviors) that are necessary to fair
value these more complex instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative
financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective
estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the
instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In
addition, the valuation techniques are highly volatile and sensitive to changes
in the trading market price of our common stock, which has a high-historical
volatility. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and
subsequently carried at fair values, our income will reflect the volatility in
these estimate and assumption changes.
Information
and significant assumptions embodied in the valuations (including ranges for
certain assumptions during the subject periods that instruments were
outstanding) as of the inception date of the financing (December 23, 2009) are
illustrated in the following tables:

Due to
the relatively short period of time between the inception date of December 23,
2009 and December 31, 2009, the only significant factor that changed in the
derivative liability fair value calculations for the warrants and the embedded
conversion derivative is the underlying stock price. The underlying
stock price on December 31, 2009 was $1.05.

The
Company’s derivative liabilities and derivative gain as of December 31, 2009 are
significant to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The magnitude of
derivative gain reflects the following: The market price of the Company’s common
stock, which significantly affects the fair value of the derivative financial
instruments, experienced material price fluctuations from the inception date to
December 31, 2009. The lower stock price on December 31, 2009 compared to the
stock price on the inception date had the effect of significantly decreasing the
fair value of the derivative liabilities and, accordingly, the Company was
required to adjust the derivatives to these lower values with charges to
derivative income.

9 –Consulting Agreements
The
continuation of other agreements with independent financial and business
advisors continued through the reporting period. These consultants provide
strategic relationships with several business development resources, and such
other business matters as deemed necessary by Company management. The
terms of these agreements range from six months to several years. Under the
terms of several of these agreements the Company shall from time to time, pay to
the consultant such compensation as shall be mutually agreed to between the
parties. Under the terms of others, these agreements specify a fixed obligation
by the Company to pay the consultant, either in cash or Company stock, at the
discretion of the Company. Under the terms of these agreements,
during fiscal year 2009 the consultants received 1,042,500 shares of common
stock from the Company’s 2007 Consultant Stock Option, SAR and Stock Bonus Plan.
The total value of the services was $172,525 which was recorded as consulting
expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and
comprehensive loss for the three months ended December 31, 2008. None of the
$172,525 in consulting compensation is capitalized at December 31,
2009.
F -

During
December 2008, the Company commenced with the consulting portion of a broader
agreement entered into in October 2008. The agreement calls for a
monthly advisory fee of $7,000 to a consultant which continues in 2010.
In
accordance with this agreement, $21,000 was charged to expense in the statement
of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2009.

Item
14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Our
Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation provide for the indemnification
of our directors, officers, employees and agents to the fullest extent permitted
by the laws of the State of Nevada. Section 78.7502 of the
Nevada General Corporation Law permits a corporation to indemnify any of its
directors, officers, employees or agents against expenses actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (except for an action by or in right of the corporation) by reason
of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of
the corporation, provided that it is determined that such person acted in good
faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to,
the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful.
Section
78.751 of the Nevada General Corporation Law requires that the determination
that indemnification is proper in a specific case must be made by (a) the
stockholders, (b) the board of directors by majority vote of a quorum consisting
of directors who were not parties to the action, suit or proceeding or (c)
independent legal counsel in a written opinion (i) if a majority vote of a
quorum consisting of disinterested directors is not possible or (ii) if such an
opinion is requested by a quorum consisting of disinterested
directors.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the “Securities Act”) may
be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant
pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been
advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable.
Item
15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities.
There
have been no sales of unregistered securities within the last three years, which
would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 701 of Regulation S-K, except
for the following:

Company $.001 par value Common Stock (the “Common Stock”), and
the Notes will be convertible into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price
of $1.21 at any time. In connection with the issuance of the Notes,

exercise price for the Warrants is $1.21 per share, and each class of Warrant is
exercisable for five years from the date of issuance. The Notes and
each class of the Warrants contain full-ratchet and other customary
anti-dilution protections. These provisions may give rise to the
warrants and the conversion feature being accounted for as derivatives the
Company is currently reviewing the accounting effect of the
transactions.

pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D and
applicable state laws. These issuances qualified for this exemption
from registration because (i) the Company did not engage in any general
solicitation or advertising to market the securities; (ii) the securities were
issued to a person with knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters so that he/she is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an
investment in the Company; (iii) the persons who acquired these shares acquired
them for their own accounts; and (iv) the certificates representing these shares
will bear a restricted legend providing that they cannot be sold except pursuant
to an effective registration statement or an exemption from
registration.

Item
17. Undertakings.
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1)
|
To
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration
statement:
|
(i)
|
To
include any prospectus required in Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act
of 1933;
|
(ii)
|
To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective
date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range
may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission
pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and
price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering
price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the
effective registration statement;
and
|
(iii)
|
To
include any material information with respect to the “Plan of
Distribution” not previously disclosed in the registration statement or
any material change to such information in the registration
statement;
|
(2)
|
That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof;
|
(3)
|
To
remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering; and
|
(4)
|
That,
for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933
to any purchaser, if the registrant is subject to Rule 430C, each
prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration
statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements
relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule
430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration
statement as of the date it is first used after
effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a
registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration
statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by
reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of
the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract
of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that
was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the
registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to
such date of first use.
|
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the
“Securities
Act”) may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has
been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable.
II-8
In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit
or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issues.
II-9
