Momentum Biofuels, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 and 2009
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION :
Presentation of Interim Information:
The accompanying unaudited financial statements include the accounts of Momentum
BioFuels, Inc. (the Company), a Colorado corporation and its wholly-owned
subsidiary, Momentum BioFuels, Inc., a Texas corporation ("Momentum -Texas").
On August 21, 2009, Momentum Biofuels, Inc. ("Momentum-Texas"), a Texas
corporation, entered into an Agreement with Hunt Global Resources, Inc.
("Hunt"), under the terms of which Hunt agreed to assume the obligations of
Momentum-Texas and the Company through the assignment of a certain Senior
Secured Promissory Note in the amount of $600,000 issued by Momentum-Colorado to
a group of investors arranged by Bathgate Capital Partners, LLC, of Denver,
Colorado. Hunt further agreed to assume Momentum-Texas obligations under a
sub-lease agreement between Momentum-Texas and Brand Infrastructure and
Services, Inc., including all past due rent, assessments other charges related
to the property covered by the sub-lease agreement, all in exchange for a
conveyance of all of the right title and interest of Momentum-Texas, in and to
all of its physical assets, including the biodiesel plant located in Pasadena,
Texas and all intellectual property, processes, techniques and formulas for
creating Biofuels and related products.
Further, Momentum-Texas entered into a License Agreement with Hunt, which
provided that in exchange for a grant of a license to use, improve, sublicense
and commercialize the intellectual property described in the Agreement, in
exchange for an agreement by Hunt to pay to Momentum-Texas, a royalty of 3% of
the gross and collected revenue received by Hunt from the sale of bio-diesel and
related products and from revenues received by Hunt from its proposed Commercial
Sand business. Momentum-Texas assigned its rights to receive the royalty
described in the License Agreement to its parent, the Company in exchange for
common shares of the Company equal to 39% of the issued and outstanding stock at
such date, or 40,000,000 shares, whichever sum is greater. Such shares were
issued by the Company as fully paid, non-assessable and subject to a non
dilution agreement in favor of Hunt.
Basis of Presentation
Interim Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Momentum Biofuels,
Inc. (the Company), have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and should be read in conjunction with
the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in Momentum's
Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim
periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for
interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
the full year. Notes to the financial statements which substantially duplicate
the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2009, as reported in the Form 10-K have been omitted.
F-5
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Momentum and it's wholly- owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany
accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of 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 the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our significant estimates
primarily relate to the assessment of warrants and debt and equity transactions
and the estimated lives and methods used in determining depreciation of fixed
assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents include highly liquid investments purchased with original
maturities of three months or less.
Revenue Recognition
Momentum recognizes revenue from product sales when the products are shipped or
delivered and the title and risk pass to the customer. Provisions for any
product returns or discounts given to customers are accounted for as reductions
in revenues in the same period revenues are recorded.
Share-Based Compensation
Momentum measures all share-based payments, including grants of employee stock
options, using a fair-value based method. The cost of services received in
exchange for awards of equity instruments is recognized in the statement of
operations based on the grant date fair value of those awards amortized over the
requisite service period. Momentum utilizes a standard option pricing model, the
Black-Scholes model, to measure the fair value of stock options granted.
Income Taxes
Momentum and its subsidiary file a consolidated federal tax return. Momentum
uses the asset and liability method in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and
liabilities, and are measured using the tax rates expected to be in effect when
the differences reverse. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for operating
loss and tax credit carryforwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations
in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is used to
reduce deferred tax assets when uncertainty exists regarding their realization.
Net Loss per Common Share
Basic net loss per common share is calculated by dividing the net loss
applicable to common shares by the weighted average number of common and common
equivalent shares outstanding during the period. For the three months ended
March 31, 2010 and 2009, there were no potential common equivalent shares used
in the calculation of weighted average common shares outstanding as the effect
would be anti-dilutive because of the net loss.
F-6
Description 2010 2009
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------
Weighted average shares used to compute basic and
diluted net loss per common share: 93,244,444 68,589,285

=================== ===================
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Momentum does not expect that adoption of recently issued accounting
pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
Note 3 - Going Concern
Momentum has incurred significant losses from operations since inception and has
limited financial resources. These factors raise substantial doubt about
Momentum's ability to continue as a going concern. Momentum's financial
statements for the year ended March 31, 2010 have been prepared on a going
concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction
of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company currently has an
accumulated deficit of $18,855,861 through March 31, 2010. Momentum's ability to
continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to develop additional
sources of capital and, ultimately, achieve profitable operations. The
accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
Note 4 - Concentration of Credit Risk
At various times during the year, Momentum may have bank deposits in excess of
the FDIC insurance limits. Momentum has not experienced any losses from
maintaining cash accounts in excess of the federally insured limit. Management
believes that it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash accounts.

Note 5 - Convertible Notes Payable
Convertible notes payable as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 consisted
of the following:

prepaid before May 1, 2010, Momentum will issue the lenders a warrant to

Note 6 - Income Taxes
Momentum did not incur any income tax expense due to operating losses and the
related increase in the valuation allowance. The tax effects of the temporary
differences that give rise to deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December
31, 2009 and 2008 are as follows:
2009 2008
------------------ -------------------
Deferred tax assets:
Loss carry forwards $ 2,655,608 $ 1,439,000
Less valuation allowance (2,655,608) (1,439,000)
------------------ -------------------
$ - $ -
Net deferred tax assets
================== ===================
As of December 31, 2009 Momentum had a net operating loss carryforward for
federal income tax purposes of approximately $7,480,126 that may be offset
against future taxable income. As more fully disclosed in Note 1, Momentum
experienced a change in control during 2006. Internal Revenue Code Section 382
imposes restrictions upon a company's ability to utilize net operating loss
carryforwards subsequent to a change in control. Any limitations upon Momentum's
ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards against future taxable
income have not yet been determined.
F-8
Momentum has established a valuation allowance for the full amount of the
deferred tax assets as management does not currently believe that it is more
likely than not that these assets will be recovered in the foreseeable future.
To the extent not utilized, the net operating loss carryforwards will expire
starting in 2026.
Note 7 - Equity Transactions
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, Momentum did not issue any shares
of its common stock.
Note 8 - Options
Options were originally issued in conjunction with employment agreements for key
employees and consultants.
As of August 21, 2009, there were 9,250,000 outstanding options. As a result of
the change of control, all the outstanding options fully vested. At March 31,
2010, there were 9,250,000 issued and outstanding options. The weighted average
exercise price for all options outstanding as of March 31, 2010 was $1.
Option activity for the period from January 1, 2010 through March 31, 2010 is as
follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS CAUTIONARY
This Item 2 and the report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2010 may
contain "forward-looking statements" regarding Momentum Biofuels, Inc. (the
"Company" or "Momentum"). In some cases, you can identify forward-looking
statements by terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "expects,"
"plans," "intends," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts,"
"potential" or "continue" or the negative of such terms and other comparable
terminology. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation,
statements about our market opportunity, our strategies, competition, expected
activities and expenditures as we pursue our business plan, and the adequacy of
our available cash resources. Although we believe that the expectations
reflected in any forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee
future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Actual results
may differ materially from the predictions discussed in these forward-looking
statements. Changes in the circumstances upon which we base our predictions
and/or forward-looking statements could materially affect our actual results.
Additional factors that could materially affect these forward-looking statements
and/or predictions include, among other things: (1) our limited operating
history; (2) our ability to pay down existing debt; (3) the Company's ability to
obtain contracts with suppliers of raw materials (for the Company's production
of biodiesel fuel) and distributors of the Company's biodiesel fuel product; (4)
the risks inherent in the mutual performance of such supplier and distributor
contracts (including the Company's production performance (5) the Company's
ability to secure and retain management capable of managing growth; (6) the
Company's ability to raise necessary financing to execute the Company's business
plan; (7) potential litigation with our shareholders, creditors and/or former or
current investors; (8) the Company's ability to comply with all applicable
federal, state and local government and international rules and regulations; and
(9) other factors over which we have little or no control.
The independent registered public accounting firm's report on the Company's
financial statements as of December 31, 2009, includes a "going concern"
explanatory paragraph that describes substantial doubt about the Company's
ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to the
factors prompting the explanatory paragraph are discussed below and also in Note
2 to the unaudited quarterly financial statements.
OPERATIONS
The Company after minimal operations during the year ended December 31, 2009 and
its acquisition by the Hunt Group has changed its operational focus to being an
intellectual property company owning specific royalty agreements as its sole
source of revenue. It is the intent of management to pursue additional royalty
and licensing agreements in the furtherance of its business objectives to
maximize shareholder value and profitability. Management is also considering
other opportunities in other non-related businesses.
We intend to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire
royalty and license agreements. We will not restrict our search to any specific
business, industry or geographical location, and we may participate in business
ventures of virtually any nature. This discussion of our proposed business is
purposefully general and is not meant to be restrictive of our unlimited
discretion to search for and enter into potential business opportunities. We
anticipate that we may be able to participate in only one potential business
venture because of our lack of financial resources.
1
We intend to participate in a business opportunity only after the negotiation
and execution of appropriate written business agreements. Although the terms of
such agreements cannot be predicted, generally we anticipate that such
agreements will (i) require specific representations and warranties by all of
the parties; (ii) specify certain events of default; (iii) detail the terms of
closing and the conditions which must be satisfied by each of the parties prior
to and after such closing; (iv) outline the manner of bearing costs, including
costs associated with the Company's attorneys and accountants; (v) set forth
remedies on defaults; and (vi) include miscellaneous other terms.
The Company is dependent on raising additional equity and/or, debt to fund any
negotiated settlements with its outstanding creditors and meet the Company's
ongoing operating expenses. There is no assurance that Momentum will be able to
raise the necessary equity and/or debt that it will need to be able to negotiate
acceptable settlements with its outstanding creditors or fund its ongoing
operating expenses. Momentum cannot make any assurances that it will be able to
raise funds through such activities.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to carry out its
business plan. Historically, our cash needs have been satisfied primarily
through proceeds from private placements of our equity securities and debt
instruments, but we cannot guarantee that such financing activities will be
sufficient to fund our current and future projects and our ability to meet our
cash and working capital needs. No commitments to provide additional funds have
been made by management or other stockholders. Irrespective of whether the
Company's cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet the Company's operational
needs, the Company might seek to compensate providers of services by issuances
of its common stock in lieu of cash.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 2010, the Company had $0 in cash and $0 in other assets with which
to conduct its operations.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to carry out its
business plan. Historically, our cash needs have been satisfied primarily
through proceeds from private placements of our equity securities and debt
instruments, but we cannot guarantee that such financing activities will be
sufficient to fund our current and future projects and our ability to meet our
cash and working capital needs. No commitments to provide additional funds have
been made by management or other stockholders. Irrespective of whether the
Company's cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet the Company's operational
needs, the Company might seek to compensate providers of services by issuances
of its common stock in lieu of cash.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March
31, 2010 was $0. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company
provided net cash of $122,331 in operating activities. During the three months
ended March 31, 2009, net losses of $889,358 were adjusted for the non-cash
items of $127,595 in depreciation and amortization expense and $394,395 in share

During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the net cash used by its investing
activities was $0. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Company

Net cash used by financing activities during the three months ended March 31,
2010 was $0. During the three months ended March 31, 2009, financing activities
used net funds in the amount of $147,991.
Management will need to seek and obtain additional funding, via loans or private
placements of stock, for future operations and to provide required working
capital. Management cannot make any assurances it will be able to complete such
a transaction.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and
judgments. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical
experiences and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making
judgments about the carrying value 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 more significant
accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company's financial
statements include estimates as to the valuation of equity related instruments
issued, and valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets. Our accounting
policies are described in the notes to financial statements included in this
Annual Report on Form 10K. The more critical accounting policies are as
described below.
The Company believes that the following are some of the more significant
accounting policies and methods used by the Company:
o revenue recognition
o share-based compensation
REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company will recognize revenue when the product has been delivered to the
customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is
reasonably assured.
SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company measures all share-based payments, including grants of employee
stock options, using a fair-value based method. The cost of services received in
exchange for awards of equity instruments is recognized in the statement of
operations based on the grant date fair value of those awards amortized over the
requisite service period. The Company utilizes a standard option pricing model,
the Black-Scholes model, to measure the fair value of stock options granted.

ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosures Controls and Procedures
We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) that are designed to ensure that
information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act, is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods required
under the SEC's rules and forms and that the information is gathered and
communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal
Executive Officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by SEC Rule 15d-15(b), our Chief Executive Officer carried out an
evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 15d-14 as of the end of the period
covered by this report. Based on the foregoing evaluation, Mr. Enders concluded
that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in timely alerting
them to material information required to be included in our periodic SEC
filings, as a result of material weaknesses in our internal control over
financial reporting discussed below.
ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management's Quarterly Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting for the company in accordance with as defined
in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control
over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding
the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes
those policies and procedures that:
4
(i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable
detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of our assets;
(ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as
necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts
and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations
of our management and directors; and
(iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely
detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets
that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting
may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of
effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management's assessment of the effectiveness of the small business issuer's
internal control over financial reporting is as of the quarter ended March 31,
2010. In making this assessment, Management used the criteria set forth by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in
Internal Control--Integrated Framework. Based on the evaluation, management
concluded that there is a material weakness in our internal control over
financial reporting. The material weakness relates to the monitoring and review
of work performed by contracted accounting personnel in the preparation of audit
and financial statements, footnotes and financial data provided to Momentum's
registered public accounting firm in connection with the annual audit. Until
October 2007, all of our financial reporting is carried out by our Chief
Financial Officer; the Company continues to function without a Chief Financial
Officer. This lack of an accounting staff results in a lack of segregation of
duties and accounting technical expertise necessary for an effective system of
internal control.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company's
registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's
registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that
permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that
occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2010, that has materially affected,
or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
financial reporting.
