EVOLUTION RESOURCES, INC.
 
(A Development Stage Company)
January 31, 2010
 
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
 
(Unaudited)
 
NOTE 1 –ORGANIZATION

Evolution Resources, Inc. (“Evolution” or the “Company”), formerly BBN Global Consulting, Inc. (“BBN”). BBN was incorporated on March 15, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. It was formed to be a consulting firm with a mission of providing strategic business planning and management consulting to small domestic companies and to assist medium sized companies in China and Brazil to establish a business presence in the United States. Since November 1, 2007 the Company has ceased operations, and all previous business activities have been discontinued. After the closing of the merger on May 27, 2009, as described below, BBN changed its name from BBN Global Consulting, Inc. to Evolution Resources, Inc. to reflect the activities or our principal business. Because of the merger, BBN ceased to be a “shell company” as that term is defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act and Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.
 
On May 27, 2009 (the “Merger Date”), BBN, Evolution and Evolution Resources Acquisition Corporation (“ERAC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Evolution entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, on May 27, 2009 ERAC merged with and into Evolution, with Evolution remaining as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).
 
As a result of the ownership interests of the former shareholders of Evolution, for financial statement reporting purposes, the merger between BBN and Evolution has been treated as a reverse acquisition with Evolution deemed the accounting acquirer and BBN deemed the accounting acquiree under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 “Business Combinations” (revised 2007) (“SFAS No. 141R”). The reverse merger is deemed a capital transaction and the net assets of Evolution (the accounting acquirer) are carried forward to BBN (the legal acquirer and the reporting entity) at their carrying value before the combination. The acquisition process utilizes the capital structure of BBN and the assets and liabilities of Evolution which are recorded at historical cost. The equity of BBN is the historical equity of Evolution retroactively restated to reflect the number of shares issued by BBN in the transaction.
 
On May 27, 2009, in connection with the Merger, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to change its name from BBN Global Consulting, Inc. to Evolution Resources, Inc. (the “Company”).
 
As of the closing of the Merger, each issued and outstanding share of common stock of Evolution was converted into the right to receive 15,296,077 shares of the common stock of BBN. Following (i) the closing of the Merger and (ii) the cancellation of 7,975,000 shares of BBN’s common stock in connection with the Merger, the former shareholders of Evolution hold approximately 89.55% of the common stock of BBN.
 
On December 31, 2009, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Evolution Development LLC, which will hold intellectual property and manage the Company's research and development efforts.
 
Evolution Resources, Inc. is a development stage company focused on the advancement of the production of cellulosic ethanol and biodiesel. Evolution’s business plan contains certain proposed projects that if successfully implemented and completed, will leverage existing assets and infrastructure to (a) significantly shorten the time frame required to establish commercial scale cellulosic ethanol production facilities and (b) “repurpose” certain industrial facilities to provide key biofuels production components.
 
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.  These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended October 31, 2009 and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 20, 2010.
 
 
5

 
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company at January 31, 2010 and October 31, 2009 (where applicable). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Development Stage Company
 
The Company is a development stage company as defined by ASC 915-10 “Development Stage Entities”.  The Company is still devoting substantially all of its efforts on establishing the business and its planned principal operations have not commenced. All losses accumulated since inception has been considered as part of the Company's development stage activities.

Use of 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 the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Fiscal year end
 
The Company elected October 31, as its fiscal year ending date.
 
Cash equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
 
Property, Plant and Equipment 

Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is provided using the straight line method at rates based on the estimated useful lives. The cost of asset additions and improvements that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Routine maintenance and repairs items are charged to current operations. The original cost and accumulated depreciation of asset dispositions are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the statement of operations in the period of disposition.

Licenses
 
The Company has adopted the guidelines as set out in ASC 350-10 “Intangibles, Goodwill and Other” for licenses. Under the requirements as set out in ASC 350-10, licenses are stated at cost and amortized over their remaining legal lives, estimated useful lives or the term of the contracts, whichever is shorter. Upon becoming fully amortized, the related cost and accumulated amortization are removed from the accounts.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with Statement of ASC 360-10-35 “Property, Plant and Equipment – Subsequent Measurement”, the Company reviews the carrying value of its long-lived assets , which includes property, plant and equipment and licenses annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost-carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of the asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value. The Company determined that there was a $2,060,000 impairment on equipment held for sale as of January 31, 2010, and continues to evaluate the remaining long-lived assets on an ongoing basis.

The Company has allocated the proceeds received from Series A convertible preferred stock between the underlying instruments and has recorded the conversion feature as a liability in accordance with ASC 815-10, “Derivative and Hedging – and Related Disclosures”,  and related interpretations. The conversion feature and certain other features that are considered embedded derivative instruments, such as a conversion reset provision, a penalty provision and redemption option, have been recorded at their fair value within the terms of ASC 815-10 as its fair value can be separated from the convertible note and its conversion is independent of the underlying note value. The conversion liability is marked to market each reporting period with the resulting gains or losses shown on the Statement of Operations.

Derivatives
 
The Company accounts for derivatives in accordance with ASC 815-10, “Derivative and Hedging – and Related Disclosures”, ASC 815-10 as amended, requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on: (i) whether the derivative has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship, and (ii) the type of hedging relationship. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, a company must designate the hedging instrument based upon the exposure being hedged as either a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge or hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. At January 31, 2010, the Company had not entered into any transactions which were considered hedges under ASC 815-10.  In conjunction with the issuance of Series A convertible preferred stock, the Company has accounted for the embedded derivative liability in accordance with ASC 815-15, “Derivatives & Hedging – Embedded Derivatives” and performs a mark to market analysis at the end of each reporting period.

Financial instruments
 
The Company evaluates its Series A convertible preferred stock to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under ASC 815-15, “Derivatives and Hedging – Embedded Derivatives”, and related interpretations including ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entities Own Equity”.  The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the Statement of Operations as other income or expense. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity.
 
In circumstances where the embedded conversion option in a convertible instrument is required to be bifurcated and there are also other embedded derivative instruments in the convertible instrument that are required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument.
 
The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC 815-10, “Derivative and Hedging – and Related Disclosures”, are reclassified to liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument is expected within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
 
The fair value model utilized to value the various compound embedded derivatives in the secured convertible notes comprises multiple probability-weighted scenarios under various assumptions reflecting the economics of the secured convertible notes, such as the risk-free interest rate, expected Company stock price and volatility, likelihood of conversion and or redemption, and likelihood of default status and timely registration. At inception, the fair value of the single compound embedded derivative was bifurcated from the host debt contract and recorded as a derivative liability which resulted in a reduction of the initial notional carrying amount of the secured convertible notes (as unamortized discount which will be amortized over the term of the notes under the effective interest method).
 
Fair value of financial instruments

The Company has adopted and follows ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” for measurement and disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments.  ASC 820-10 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels.  The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.  The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820-10 described below:

Level 1
 
Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level 2
 
Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
Level 3
 
Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.

As defined by ASC 820-10, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale, which was further clarified as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (“an exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, prepayments and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, accrued interest taxes payable, and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.  The Company’s note payable approximates the fair value of such instrument based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangement at January 31, 2010.
 
 
7

 
 
The Company revalues its derivative liability at every reporting period and recognizes gains or losses in the consolidated statement of operations that are attributable to the change in the fair value of the derivative liability.  The Company has no other assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Revenue recognition
 
The Company follows the guidance of ASC 605-10, “Revenue Recognition” to recognize revenue related to its operations. The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the product has been shipped or the services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured and inventory held for sale is sold.

Income taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740-10, “Income Taxes”. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
 
ASC 740-10-25, “Income Taxes – Recognition” addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements.  ASC 740-10-25, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.  The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent (50%) likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.  ASC 740-10-40, “Income Taxes – De-recognition”, provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties on income taxes, accounting in interim periods and requires increased disclosures.  The Company had no material adjustments to its liabilities for unrecognized income tax benefits according to the provisions of ASC 740-10-25.

Net income (loss) per common share
 
Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share”, Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive outstanding shares of common stock during each period to reflect the potential dilution that could occur. There were 2,857,143 shares of common stock issuable under the conversion feature of the Series A convertible preferred stock and 1,000,000 warrants outstanding as of January 31, 2010, which were excluded from the calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
On June 5, 2003, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted final rules under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”), as amended by SEC Release No. 33-9072 on October 13, 2009.  Under the provisions of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, public companies and their independent auditors are each required to report to the public on the effectiveness of a company’s internal controls.  The smallest public companies with a public float below $75 million have been given extra time to design, implement and document these internal controls before their auditors are required to attest to the effectiveness of these controls.  This extension of time will expire beginning with the annual reports of companies with fiscal years ending on or after June 15, 2010.  Commencing with its annual report for the year ending October 31, 2010, the Company will be required to include a report of management on its internal control over financial reporting. The internal control report must include a statement
 
 
8

 
 
·
Of management’s responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over its financial reporting;

·
Of management’s assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of year end; and

·
Of the framework used by management to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Furthermore, it is required to file the auditor’s attestation report separately on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting on whether it believes that the Company has maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting.

In June 2009, the FASB approved the “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” (the “Codification”) as the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. GAAP to be launched on July 1, 2009.  The Codification does not change current U.S. GAAP, but is intended to simplify user access to all authoritative U.S. GAAP by providing all the authoritative literature related to a particular topic in one place.  All existing accounting standard documents will be superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the Codification will be considered non-authoritative. The Codification is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009.

In August 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-04 “Accounting for Redeemable Equity Instruments - Amendment to Section 480-10-S99” which represents an update to section 480-10-S99, distinguishing liabilities from equity, per EITF Topic D-98, Classification and Measurement of Redeemable Securities.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In August 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-05 “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures Topic 820 – Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value”, which provides amendments to subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall, for the fair value measurement of liabilities.  This update provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the following techniques: 1. A valuation technique that uses: a. The quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset b. Quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as assets. 2. Another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles of topic 820; two examples would be an income approach, such as a present value technique, or a market approach, such as a technique that is based on the amount at the measurement date that the reporting entity would pay to transfer the identical liability or would receive to enter into the identical liability. The amendments in this update also clarify that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability. The amendments in this update also clarify that both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements.  The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-08 “Earnings Per Share – Amendments to Section 260-10-S99”,which represents technical corrections to topic 260-10-S99, Earnings per share, based on EITF Topic D-53, Computation of Earnings Per Share for a Period that includes a Redemption or an Induced Conversion of a Portion of a Class of Preferred Stock and EITF Topic D-42, The Effect of the Calculation of Earnings per Share for the Redemption or Induced Conversion of Preferred Stock. The Company does not expect the adoption of this update to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-09 “Accounting for Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures and Accounting for Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”.  This update represents a correction to Section 323-10-S99-4, Accounting by an Investor for Stock-Based Compensation Granted to Employees of an Equity Method Investee. Additionally, it adds observer comment Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions Involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees to the Codification. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 
In September 2009, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-12 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Topic 820 – Investment in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Assets Value Per Share (or Its Equivalent)”, which provides amendments to Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures-Overall, for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent). The amendments in this update permit, as a practical expedient, a reporting entity to measure the fair value of an investment that is within the scope of the amendments in this update on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent) if the net asset value of the investment (or its equivalent) is calculated in a manner consistent with the measurement principles of Topic 946 as of the reporting entity’s measurement date, including measurement of all or substantially all of the underlying investments of the investee in accordance with Topic 820.

The amendments in this update also require disclosures by major category of investment about the attributes of investments within the scope of the amendments in this update, such as the nature of any restrictions on the investor’s ability to redeem its investments a the measurement date, any unfunded commitments (for example, a contractual commitment by the investor to invest a specified amount of additional capital at a future date to fund investments that will be make by the investee), and the investment strategies of the investees. The major category of investment is required to be determined on the basis of the nature and risks of the investment in a manner consistent with the guidance for major security types in U.S. GAAP on investments in debt and equity securities in paragraph 320-10-50-1B. The disclosures are required for all investments within the scope of the amendments in this update regardless of whether the fair value of the investment is measured using the practical expedient. The Company does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In January 2010, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-01 “Equity Topic 505 – Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash”, which clarify that the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential limitation on the total amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive in the aggregate is considered a share issuance that is reflected in EPS prospectively and is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260 (Equity and Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)).  Those distributions should be accounted for and included in EPS calculations in accordance with paragraphs 480-10-25- 14 and 260-10-45-45 through 45-47 of the FASB Accounting Standards codification.  The amendments in this Update also provide a technical correction to the Accounting Standards Codification.  The correction moves guidance that was previously included in the Overview and Background Section to the definition of a stock dividend in the Master Glossary.  That guidance indicates that a stock dividend takes nothing from the property of the corporation and adds nothing to the interests of the stockholders.  It also indicates that the proportional interest of each shareholder remains the same, and is a key factor to consider in determining whether a distribution is a stock dividend.

In January 2010, the FASB issued the FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-02 “Consolidation Topic 810 – Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – a Scope Clarification”, which provides amendments to Subtopic 810-10 and related guidance within U.S. GAAP to clarify that the scope of the decrease in ownership provisions of the Subtopic and related guidance applies to the following:
 
1.           A subsidiary or group of assets that is a business or nonprofit activity
2.           A subsidiary that is a business or nonprofit activity that is transferred to an equity method investee or joint venture
3.           An exchange of a group of assets that constitutes a business or nonprofit activity for a noncontrolling interest in an entity (including an equity method investee or joint venture).
 
The amendments in this Update also clarify that the decrease in ownership guidance in Subtopic 810-10 does not apply to the following transactions even if they involve businesses:
 
1.           Sales of in substance real estate.  Entities should apply the sale of real estate guidance in Subtopics 360-20 (Property, Plant, and Equipment) and 976-605 (Retail/Land) to such transactions.
2.           Conveyances of oil and gas mineral rights.  Entities should apply the mineral property conveyance and related transactions guidance in Subtopic 932-360 (Oil and Gas-Property, Plant, and Equipment) to such transactions.

If a decrease in ownership occurs in a subsidiary that is not a business or nonprofit activity, an entity first needs to consider whether the substance of the transaction causing the decrease in ownership is addressed in other U.S. GAAP, such as transfers of financial assets, revenue recognition, exchanges of nonmonetary assets, sales of in substance real estate, or conveyances of oil and gas mineral rights, and apply that guidance as applicable. If no other guidance exists, an entity should apply the guidance in Subtopic 810-10.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
 
 NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a deficit accumulated during the development stage of $2,286,669 at January 31, 2010, with a net loss of $5,767,070 with no revenues since inception.  

The Company had negative net working capital of $5,457,610 at January 31, 2010.  The Company has defaulted on notes payable principal and interest totaling $1,691,648 at January 31, 2010 related to the Liquafaction acquisition.  The Company also has not been able to pay monthly lease expenses associated with the Moses Lake facility in Washington which approximate $21,700 per month, these monthly payments have continued to accrue since the acquisition date.
 
 
10

 
 
The Company is currently attempting to sell the excess equipment at the Moses Lake, WA facility and plans to use the proceeds to pay down the outstanding principle and interest on the notes payable balances along with the current and past due lease expenses associated with the facility in Moses Lake, WA.  The Company is also in the process of attempting to re-negotiate the existing notes payable which are in default with the note holders.  The Company does not know if its attempts to re-negotiate with the existing note holders will be successful.  Under the existing notes payable agreements, the note holders may choose to exercise their rights under their respective security agreements to satisfy their outstanding balances with the Company.
 
If the effort to sell excess equipment and re-negotiate with existing note holders is unsuccessful, the Company will have to examine other alternatives to satisfy its existing current obligations, but has no other plan at this time.

While the Company is attempting to commence operations and generate revenues, the Company’s cash position may not be significant enough to support the Company’s daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to increase revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate revenues.
 
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
 
NOTE 4 – ACQUISITIONS
 
On July 14, 2009, Evolution entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) whereby the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Liquafaction Corporation (“Liquafaction”) and fifty-three percent of the membership interests of Liqua Ethanol, LLC (“Liqua LLC”) (the shares of Liquafaction and Liqua LLC are referred to collectively as the “Equity”). The purchase price of the Equity is as follows: (i) $35,000 upon the execution of this Agreement, to be paid from a prior deposit, (ii) a total of $30,000 due in equal weekly payments for eight weeks from the date hereof and (iii) $150,000 upon the earlier of the completion of the Moses Lakes project funding or 120 days from the date of the Agreement. Additionally, the Shareholder received a (i) warrant to purchase 1,150,000 shares of Buyer’s common stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share and (ii) the right to receive additional warrants to purchase up to an additional 400,000 shares at an exercise price of $7.00 per share based on various performance objectives contained in the Agreement (collectively, the “Warrants”). The fair value of the warrants was $3,258,409 at acquisition, and $3,403,273 as of October 30, 2009. The changes in fair market value are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations loss on derivatives totaling $4,151,660 as of October 31, 2009.  No additional warrant valuation was needed or performed at January 31, 2010, as the warrants were cancelled on October 30, 2009.

Liqua LLC is a subsidiary of Liquafaction, however it has no operations, no assets or liabilities, and therefore the Company has not shown any related noncontrolling interest on the balance sheet or statement of operations. Any future operations will be reported accordingly.
 
In July, 2009, in conjunction with the acquisition of Liquafaction, the Company formed Moses Lake Biorefinery, LLC, in the State of Washington. At October 31, 2009, Moses Lake Biorefinery had no operations, no assets or liabilities. It was formed for future operations related to the liquafaction acquisition.
  
On October 30, 2009, the company entered into an agreement with the seller of Liquafaction to cancel the initial consideration of 1,150,000 warrants to purchase the Buyer’s shares of common stock at $7.00 per share in exchange for the issuance of 500,000 shares of the Buyer’s common stock.  The Seller’s basis in the Company’s stock was determined to be market of $4.00 per share value as of October 30, 2009. The 1,150,000 warrants have a derivative liability of $3,403,273 as of October 30, 2009.  Therefore the Company recorded an accounting entry to increase to APIC by $1,403,273 in conjunction with the cancellation of the stock warrants and the issuance of 500,000 common shares at market value.

The objective of this project was to convert a former idled corn ethanol facility into a pilot-scale biorefinery that produces ethanol and associated co-products from wheat straw in order to test biomass pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis technology on a relatively small scale prior to final engineering and construction of a larger 3 million gallon/year cellulosic production facility at the same location. The planned facility was to utilize the area’s abundant wheat straw for conversion into high value co-products: ethanol, single cell protein, lignin, and syrup.

The following table summarizes the fair values assigned of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed on the date of acquisition, July 14, 2009.  The initial valuation of was based on preliminary fair values assigned to the assets prior to the third party evaluation.

Evolution Resources purchase price totaled $3,473,363 for the Liquafaction acquisition.  The excess of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed over the purchase price was allocated to negative goodwill. In accordance with In accordance with ASC 805-30-50-1 f.2 and ASC 805-30-25-4,, “Intangibles, Goodwill and Other”, the negative goodwill was recorded as an extraordinary gain on acquisition, resulting from the bargain purchase of the Liquafaction net assets. 

The Company engaged a third party appraisal firm, The Mentor Group, (“Mentor”) to perform a valuation of the assets of Liquafaction.  The new third party appraisal was then used to determine the current fair market value of the assets which included the discounted value on the plant equipment and the fair market value of the inventory available for sale at January 31, 2010.  
 
NOTE 5 – LICENSING AGREEMENT
 
Licensing Agreement
 
On April 27, 2009, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with Bio-Process Innovation, Inc. (“BPI”) to license its patented and proprietary processes and associated yeast(s). The Company then amended this agreement on November 18, 2009, effective October 31, 2009.  
 
The Company was granted the exclusive and non-transferable rights to the use of BPI technologies associated with the production of ethanol and co-products from cellulosic biomass materials within the United States for an exclusivity fee of $1,500,000 paid in installments of no less than $5,000 per month, with the total amount being paid in full in no more than 36 months from the date of the agreement.  Exclusive rights to BPI technologies may be maintained by the Company for an annual maintenance fee of $150,000 paid to BPI beginning 36 months from the date of the agreement. 
 
In conjunction with the amended agreement dated November 18, 2009, the Company and BPI entered into a convertible note as of the date of the agreement for the total amount of $1,500,000 bearing interest of 8% per annum.  As the monthly payments or other payments are made, the note amount shall be reduced dollar for dollar.  The note shall be convertible into common shares of Evolution common stock at the election of the licensee such that any remaining balance owed as of month thirty, may be converted into the shares at the market price that may be liquidated over the succeeding 6 months in equal proportional amounts each month.

In December 2009, the Company and BPI terminated the licensing agreement and subsequent convertible note as the Company moved away from using wheat straw biomass for the cellulosic ethanol project to a wood biomass, therefore rendering the licensing agreement no longer appropriate.

NOTE 8 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
 
Common Stock
  
October 30, 2009, effective November 12, 2009, Evolution Resources, Inc. (“Evolution”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Harborview Master Fund, L.P. (“Harborview”) pursuant to which Evolution sold, and Harborview purchased, 75,000 shares of Evolution’s common stock, par value $.001 (the “Shares”). In consideration of the Shares, Harborview agreed to the following: (i) to amend the conversion price of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock issued by Evolution to a $4.00 per share fixed conversion price and (ii) to amend the exercise price of the Warrant to Purchase Shares of Common Stock issued to Harborview on July 31, 2009 (the “Original Warrant”) to a $7.00 per share exercise price subject to adjustment except that in certain circumstances the conversion price may not be reduced below $4.00 per share (collectively, the “Amendments”). The fair value of the warrants was $2,020,572 as of January 31, 2010. The changes in fair market value of the warrants of $361,588 are included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations loss on derivatives totaling $471,174 as of January 31, 2010.

On October 30, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with the seller of Liquafaction to cancel the initial consideration of 1,150,000 warrants to purchase the Buyer’s shares of common stock at $7.00 per share in exchange for the issuance of 500,000 shares of the Buyer’s common stock.  The Seller’s basis in the Company’s stock was determined to be market of $4.00 per share or $2 million as of October 30, 2009.

On November 25, 2009, the Company determined that the seller of Liquafaction was in breach of his purchase agreement with the Company due to non compliance with the initial purchase agreement.  As a result, the Company did not issue the 500,000 shares of common stock to the seller until the seller remedies the breach of the agreement.

The Company’s position regarding the accounting treatment surrounding this breach was to fully disclose the potential liability of $2 million, or 500,000 shares of common stock based on the initial valuation at October 31, 2009.  The Company reduced APIC by $1,999,500, common stock (par) by $500 and reflected the potential liability of $2 million in the current liabilities section of the Company’s balance sheet.

On November 12, 2009, a majority shareholder and officer of the Company issued 3,775,000 shares of his personal common stock to various stakeholders, employees, and directors of the Company for services performed.  No additional shares of the Company’s common stock were issued therefore the number of shares issued and outstanding was not impacted by this transaction.  This transaction resulted in total compensation expense of 10,268,000, which will be amortized over the restricted period and the amortized expense of $2,250,521 is presented on the Consolidated Statement of Operations at January 31, 2010.
 
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
 
On May 27, 2009, the Company entered into a Series A Convertible Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Harborview Master Fund, L.P. (“Harborview”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Harborview purchased an aggregate of 22,500 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”), for aggregate gross proceeds equal to $225,000. The purchase price will be paid as follows: (i) $120,000 was paid on the Merger Date, May 27, 2009 (ii) $55,000 will be paid upon the filing of a registration statement and (iii) $50,000 upon the effectiveness of the registration statement.

The Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive any dividends, have a liquidation value of $100 per share and shall be entitled to vote together with the holders of the common stock of the Company, on an as converted basis.
The Series A Preferred Stock may be converted into common stock of the Company at the option of the holder by using a conversion price which shall be equal to the liquidation value of $100 divided by the lesser of (i) $1.00, as adjusted or (ii) 70% of the average  (a) if the common stock of the Company is then listed or quoted on a trading market, the daily volume weighted average price of the common stock for such date, for the five trading day period preceding the conversion date; (b) if the common stock of the Company is not listed or quoted on a trading market but are then reported in the “Pink Sheets”, the most recent bid price per share, for the five trading day period preceding the conversion date; or (c) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of common stock as determined by an independent valuation expert.

The Company followed the accounting treatment in ASC 825-10, “Financial Instruments”,” ASC 815-10, “Derivative and Hedging – and Related Disclosures”, and ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entities Own Equity”.  

The Company recognized a derivative liability upon the issuance of $225,000 of the Series A Preferred Stock that values the compound derivatives based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. The significant assumptions used for the valuation model were: the underlying stock price was used as the fair value of the common stock even though it is thinly traded, projected volatility of 215%, based on the average of 7 comparable alternative energy companies, the Company would complete its registration requirements by October 31, 2009, the holder would automatically convert at a stock price of $1.50 if the Company was not in default, the holder would convert on a quarterly basis in amounts not to exceed 25% of the average trading volume, the average trading volume would increase at 5% per quarter, and the holder would redeem if the stock price fell to $0.10 or lower. As the value of the derivative liability was greater than the face value of the Series A Preferred Stock, only the par value was prescribed to the Series A Preferred Stock.  At January 31, 2010, the fair value of the Series A Preferred Stock derivative liability was $2,806,931. The change in the fair value of the warrants for the period ending January 31, 2010, is $73,092 and is included in the Consolidated Statement of Operations loss on derivatives totaling $471,174

Overview

Evolution Resources, Inc. is a development stage company focused on the advancement of the profitable production of cellulosic ethanol and biodiesel. Our business plan contains certain proposed projects that if successfully implemented and completed, will leverage existing assets and infrastructure to (a) significantly shorten the time frame required to establish commercial scale cellulosic ethanol production facilities and (b) “repurpose” certain industrial facilities to provide key biofuels production components.

We are currently focused on building a team of industry experts to advise and assist our management as the project plans are developed. The team will include members from the scientific, financial, legal, and government policy communities who are all well experienced in the field of renewable fuels.
 
Corporate History

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada in March 2005.

On May 27, 2009, the Company, Evolution Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Evolution”) and Evolution Resources Acquisition Corp. (“ERAC”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, ERAC merged with and into Evolution, with Evolution remaining as the surviving corporation and as our sole wholly-owned subsidiary.  After the closing of the merger, we changed our name from BBN Global Consulting, Inc. to Evolution Resources, Inc. to reflect the business of our principal subsidiary. Because of the merger, we ceased to be a “shell company” as that term is defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act and Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.

As of the closing of the merger, each issued and outstanding share of common stock of Evolution was converted into the right to receive 15,296,077 shares of our common stock, which constitutes approximately 89.55% of our outstanding common stock.

Prior to the merger, we were a shell company, and we had no assets or liabilities. As a result of the merger transaction described above, the financial statements presented are our consolidated financial statements including our wholly-owned subsidiary, Evolution (which is the operating entity).

Recent Events

On July 14, 2009, Evolution entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) whereby the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Liquafaction Corporation (“Liquafaction”) and 53% of the membership interests of Liqua Ethanol, LLC (“Liqua LLC”) (the shares of Liquafaction and Liqua LLC are referred to collectively as the “Equity”). The purchase price of the Equity is as follows: (i) $35,000 upon the execution of this Agreement, to be paid from a prior deposit, (ii) a total of $30,000 due in equal weekly payments for eight weeks from the date hereof and (iii) $150,000 upon the earlier of the completion of the Moses Lakes project funding or 120 days from the date of the Agreement. Additionally, the seller received a (i) warrant to purchase 1,150,000 shares of Buyer’s common stock at an exercise price of $7.00 per share and (ii) the right to receive additional warrants to purchase up to an additional 400,000 shares at an exercise price of $7.00 per share based on various performance objectives contained in the Agreement (collectively, the “Warrants”).
 
On October 30, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with the seller of Liquafaction to cancel the initial consideration of 1,150,000 warrants to purchase the Buyer’s shares of common stock at $7.00 per share in exchange for the issuance of 500,000 shares of the Buyer’s common stock.  The Seller’s basis in the Company’s stock was determined to be market of $4.00 per share value as of October 30, 2009. The 1,150,000 warrants have a derivative liability of $3,403,273 as of October 30, 2009.  Therefore the Company recorded an accounting entry to increase APIC by $1,403,273 in conjunction with the cancellation of the stock warrants and the issuance of 500,000 common shares at market value.  No additional warrant valuation was needed or performed at January 31, 2010, as the warrants were cancelled on October 30, 2009.

Liquafaction, both individually and through Liqua Ethanol, LLC of which Liquafaction owns 53%, owns an idle corn ethanol facility located in Moses Lake, Washington. The Company intended to convert the facility into a large demonstration/small commercial-scale bio-refinery that produces ethanol and associated co-products from wheat straw.

Liqua LLC is a subsidiary of Liquafaction, however it has no operations, no assets or liabilities, and therefore the Company has not shown any related minority interest on the balance sheet or income statement. Any future operations will be reported accordingly.
 
In July, 2009, in conjunction with the acquisition of Liquafaction, the Company formed Moses Lake Biorefinery, LLC, in the state of Washington. At October 31, 2009, Moses Lake Biorefinery had no operations, no assets or liabilities. It was formed for future operations related to the Liquafaction acquisition.
 
On July 31, 2009, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors pursuant to which we sold  $215,000 aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due November 30, 2009 (the “Notes”) and five-year warrants to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share (the “Warrant”).

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 18% per annum, which is payable quarterly beginning on October 1, 2009. The Notes are secured by (i) substantially all of our assets and subsidiaries and (ii) the pledge of our entire equity interest in each of our subsidiaries. The Notes are guaranteed by each of our subsidiaries. We and all of our subsidiaries also entered into an account control agreement to secure the Notes. With appropriate notice, we have the option to repay the Notes prior to the due date.
 
On November 15, 2009 the Company entered into an operating agreement with Evolution Fuels Plazas, LLC and Legends Travel Centers, LLC.  Evolution Fuels Plazas and Legends Travel Centers were formed on October 21, 2009 with the purpose to own and operate retail fueling stations and convenience stores, along with retail truck stop fueling stations and convenience stores.  The Company will maintain a 19.90% minority interest in the operations of both Evolution Fuels Plazas and Legends Travel Centers, and Evolution Fuels, Inc. will hold the majority interest of 80.10%.  Evolution Resources, Inc. is a guarantor on all of the leases pursuant to the operating agreement with Evolution Fuels Plazas, LLC.

On November 25, 2009, the Company determined that the seller of Liquafaction was in breach of his purchase agreement with the Company.  As a result, the company did not issue the 500,000 shares of common stock to the seller until the seller remedies the breach of the agreement.

Projects

The proposed projects include the following:

·
Development of a 4 million gallon per year (mmgy) cellulosic ethanol production facility located in an area with a large availability of straw biomass. The project is attractive as the initial cellulosic facility due to the fact that the site for the proposed facility has existing ethanol components and equipment, initial design work for the project has already been completed, and certain permits for ethanol production already exist at the facility. These elements, combined with the goal of engineering and constructing a relatively small commercial scale production facility, provide the potential to complete the project and bring it online in as little as relatively quickly.

·
Development of a 60 mmgy cellulosic ethanol production facility to be located adjacent to an existing pulping facility. The project will leverage the existing mill assets for the handling of large quantities of wood biomass and the capability to produce pulp cellulose, and will utilize a proprietary technology to convert the cellulose to fermentable sugars.

In order to fund the development of the projects, acquire certain assets, and perform the required engineering and construction work involved with each project, we will need to raise approximately $200 million in a mix of equity, debt, and federal government grants/guarantees.

Presently, Evolution has completed the acquisition of Liquafaction Corporation that will allow the Company to pursue the 4 million gallon per year project described in the first bullet point above.  Although the Company is in negotiations for the next bullet point project described above, it does not have any agreements or understandings to acquire, or secure access to, that project, the land or facilities described above that would be necessary to develop this project. As such, no assurance can be made that the above-described projects will ever be developed.

Plan of Operations

The renewable energy sector is in a unique situation.  The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 have five main objectives in spending the $787 billion dollars that has been allotted.  The objectives are:
 
1.
To preserve and create jobs and to promote economic recovery
2.
To  assist those most impacted by the recession
3.
To provide investments needed to increase economic efficiency by spurring technological advances in science and health
4.
To invest in transportation, environmental protection, and other infrastructure that will provide long-term economic benefits
5.
To stabilize State and local government budgets in order to minimize and avoid reduction in essential services and counterproductive state and local tax increases.

The recession hit the renewable energy industry very hard.  The loss of jobs and reduction in incomes impacted the US miles driven by billions of miles.  This took the pressure off the demand for gasoline and creating an oversupply thus significantly reduces the price at the pump.  This left a number of renewable energy projects that were not well capitalized in financial trouble. There are some assets that are in the right locations and priced to allow for the potential of a significant increase in value when the economy returns and the demand for energy increases.
 
Evolution Resources has researched and discovered a number of these opportunities in the States of Washington, Mississippi, and Louisiana.  The team assembled can repurpose and upgrade the assets acquired at a significant discount.  The team is also in a position to test new technologies and to provide renewable energy at a cost competitive price.  New grant and low interest loan programs are available from the Federal and State agencies through the Department of Energy, Department of Agriculture, Department of Defense and State Economic Development agencies that were allocated stimulus money to revitalize and expand the renewable energy industry.  These programs will allow not only significant leveraging of the equity dollars but matching of these dollars with grants on a one for one basis and in some limited cases a five to one match.

The Company is concentrating the majority of its efforts on projects in the Mississippi and Louisiana Delta area, where it has garnered significant governmental support from these two states.  Economic conditions in this region have deteriorated to the extent that changes in certain industrial sectors are critical for the livelihood of many of the towns and cities.  Evolution is actively engaged with state and local governments, as well as regional economic development authorities, who are assisting with the development of the Company’s project plans.

The Company’s business plan contains certain proposed projects that will leverage existing distressed assets and infrastructure to:

a)           Significantly shorten the time frame required to establish commercial scale cellulosic ethanol production facilities
b)           “Repurpose” distressed industrial facilities to provide key biofuels production systems
c)           Beat the competition to profitable production of renewable fuels

The projects involve the production of cellulosic ethanol – ethanol produced from biomass sources such as wood chips, straws, and other plant matter – and the production of biodiesel – a fuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils.
 
Evolution’s management team has spent the last three years working in the renewable fuels industry and through this experience has identified the opportunities described above.  It has built a team of industry experts to advise and assist the Company’s management as the project plans are developed. The team includes members from the scientific, financial, legal, and government policy communities who are all well experienced in the field of renewable fuels.

Financial Summary for the period from November 1, 2009 to January 31, 2010
 
Revenue: From November 1, 2009 through January 31, 2010, we had no operating revenues. We do not expect to earn significant revenues in the near future.
 
Operating Expense: From November 1, 2009 through January 31, 2010, we incurred $3,188,018 in operating expenses which consisted of compensation expense related to restricted stock issuances of $2,250,521, professional and management fees of $516,024, depreciation and amortization of $146,750 and general and administrative expenses of $274,723.
 
 
19

 
 
Other Income and Expenses:   From November 1, 2009 through January 31, 2010, we recognized a loss on write down of inventory held for sale of $2,060,000, $471,174 related to a loss on derivative liabilities and changes in market values during the period and recognized $47,878 in interest expense for the period ended January 31, 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of January 31, 2010, we had $4,913 cash on hand. We are in the very early stages of development.  We expect to rely upon funds raised from private placements, as well as future equity and debt offerings, current and future grant opportunities to implement our business and growth plan and to meet our liquidity needs going forward.  However, we cannot assure you that such financing will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. If, after utilizing the existing sources of capital that become available to the Company, further capital needs will be needed and if we are not successful in obtaining the financing, we may be forced to curtail our existing or planned future operations.

Consultants and Independent Contractors
 
Presently, we have certain agreements or understandings consultants and independent contractors. As such, no assurance can be made that we will be able to retain these consultants or other appropriate consultants/contractors or, if we are able to retain new consultants/contractors, that the terms will be favorable to us.
 
Net Cash from Continuing Operations – Operating Activity

Our cash flow from operations has been negative since the inception of the company. We do not anticipate that we will have a positive cash flow from operations for the remainder of 2009 and 2010. Whether we have positive cash flow in 2011 depends on whether we are able to continue to finance our current business plan and successfully complete our cellulosic ethanol facility.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition
 
We are currently a developmental-stage company and have minimal operational revenues to date. The company follows the guidance in accordance with the principles of ASC 605-10, “Revenue Recognition” from 1) sales of ethanol from our production facilities when (a) persuasive evidence that an agreement exists; (b) the products have been delivered; (c) the prices are fixed and determinable and not subject to refund or adjustment; and (d) collection of the amounts due is reasonably assured and inventory held for sale is sold.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents.
 
Long-Lived Assets

The Company assesses the realizable value of long-lived assets for potential impairment at least annually or when events and circumstances warrant such a review.  The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the anticipated fair value is less than its carrying value.  In assessing the recoverability of our long-lived assets, we must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets.  In addition, we must make assumptions regarding the useful lives of these assets.  The Company determined that there was a $2,060,000 impairment on equipment held for sale as of January 31, 2010, and continues to evaluate the remaining long-lived assets on an ongoing basis.

Project Development

Project development costs will be either expensed or capitalized. The costs of materials and equipment that will be acquired or constructed for project development activities, and that have alternative future uses, both in project development, marketing or sales, will be classified as property and equipment and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
ASC-825-10, “Financial Instruments,” requires the Company to disclose, when reasonably attainable, the fair market values of its accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, deferred revenue and notes payable that are deemed to be financial instruments. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair value due to their short-term nature.

Earnings per Common Share
 
The Company complies with ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share,” which requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.
 
Income Taxes
 
The Company complies with ASC 740-10, “Income Taxes,” which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities that will result in future taxable or deductible amounts based on enacted tax laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets:
 
In accordance with ASC 360-10-35, “Plant, Property and Equipment – Subsequent Measurement," long lived assets such as property and equipment and intangible assets are not subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of asset groups to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset group to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group. If the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds fair value of the asset group.

Derivative Instruments
 
The Company accounts for derivatives in accordance with ASC 815-10, “Derivatives & Hedging – and Related Disclosures” and the related interpretations. ASC 815-10 requires companies to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on: (i) whether the derivative has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship, and (ii) the type of hedging relationship. For those derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, a company must designate the hedging instrument based upon the exposure being hedged as either a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge or hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. At October 31, 2009, the Company had not entered into any transactions which were considered hedges under ASC 815-10.  In conjunction with the issuance of Series A convertible preferred stock, the Company has accounted for the embedded derivative liability in accordance with ASC 815-15, “Derivatives & Hedging – Embedded Derivatives” and performs a mark to market analysis at the end of each reporting period.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
(a) 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of January 31, 2010.  As noted in our amended Annual Report on Form 10-K/A dated as of, and filed with the SEC on April 20, 2010, we are in the process of enhancing our disclosure controls and procedures.
 
Due to the limited resources of the company in its initial development stage, we have limitations surrounding staffing resources to ensure transactions are adequately captured and tracked along with the proper supervision of the accounting department. We have begun to formulate additional controls and policies relating to internal control over financial reporting and disclosures, including preparation of accounting policies and procedures manual, containing among other things, detailed , expanded closing checklists, to guide our accounting personnel in addressing significant accounting  issues in compliance with U.S. GAAP and SEC requirements.  We have also replaced key accounting positions with more trained and experienced personnel to oversee the accounting group, along with hiring of additional staff to ensure capture and tracking of financial information is more accurate.  We continue to strive to improve our disclosure controls and procedures and continue to evaluate their effectiveness.

(b) 
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2010 that have materially affected; or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

On July 31, 2009, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors pursuant to which we sold  $215,000 aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes bearing 18% interest per annum, due November 30, 2009, and five-year warrants to purchase 1,000,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share (the “Warrant”).

The Notes are guaranteed by each of Evolution’s subsidiaries. Evolution and each of its subsidiaries also entered into an account control agreement to secure the Notes.
