Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and Stockholders
AbTech Industries, Inc.
Phoenix, Arizona
AbTech Industries, Inc.
Phoenix, Arizona
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of AbTech Industries, Inc. as of
December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity,
and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The
Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control
over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of AbTech Industries, Inc. at December 31, 2009 and 2008,
and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements,
the Company has incurred substantial net losses in recent years resulting in a significant
accumulated deficit. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue
as a going concern. Managements plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 2. The
consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome
of this uncertainty.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2009 and 2008
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2009 and 2008
NOTE 1 BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Description of Business
AbTech Industries, Inc. (AbTech or the Company) is a Delaware corporation with an authorized
capital of 15,000,000 shares of $0.01 par value common stock and 5,000,000 shares of $0.01 par
value preferred stock.
The Company is an environmental technologies firm that provides innovative solutions to address
issues of water pollution. The Company has developed and patented the Smart Sponge®
polymer technology. This technologys oil absorbing capabilities make it highly effective as a
filtration media to remove hydrocarbons and other pollutants from flowing or pooled water. The
Company is headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona and has a manufacturing facility located in
Phoenix, Arizona.
The Companys wholly-owned subsidiary, Environmental Security Corporation, (ESC) was formed by
the Company in 2003 to develop a sensor array technology designed to detect impurities in water
flows. ESC owns a U.S. patent on this technology and has acquired rights to another monitoring
technology, but otherwise had no operations during either 2009 or 2008.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation The consolidated financial statements include
the accounts of AbTech Industries, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Environmental Security
Corporation. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with
a maturity of three months or less when acquired to be cash and cash equivalents.
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 certain
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the
disclosures 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.
Concentration of Credit Risk Credit risk represents the accounting loss that would be
recognized at the reporting date if counter parties failed completely to perform as contracted.
Concentrations of credit risk that arise from financial instruments exist for groups of customers
or counter parties when they have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability
to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions
described below.
| Cash and cash equivalents Financial instruments that subject the Company to credit risk are cash balances maintained in excess of federal depository insurance limits. At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company did not have any cash or cash equivalent balances which were not guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes the exposure is minimal. | ||
| Major customers and accounts receivable Major customers represent any customer that accounts for more than 10% of revenues for the year. During 2009, the Company had 1 customer |
7
that accounted for 12% of its revenues, whose accounts receivable balance (unsecured) accounted for approximately 3% of accounts receivable at December 31, 2009. During 2008, the Company had one customer (related party) that accounted for 23% of its revenues and one customer that accounted for 32% of its revenues whose accounts receivable balances (unsecured) accounted for approximately 83% and 0%, respectively, of accounts receivable at December 31, 2008. | |||
| Supplier Major suppliers represent any vendor that accounts for more than 10% of purchases for the year. During 2009, the Company had one vendor that accounted for 57% of its purchases and one vendor that accounted for 13% of purchases. Accounts payable for these vendors accounted for approximately 0% and 5%, respectively, of accounts payable at December 31, 2009. During 2008, the Company had four vendors that each accounted for more than 10% of its purchases at 40%, 21%, 13% and 10%, respectively. Only one of these vendors had an accounts payable balance at December 31, 2008, which accounted for 19% of accounts payable at December 31, 2008. Although there are other suppliers for raw materials, a change in suppliers could cause a delay in the production process, which could ultimately affect operating results. |
Fair Values of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of certain financial
instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, loans from
shareholders and customer deposits approximate their fair values because of the relatively
short-term maturity of these instruments.
Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost computed on
an average cost method on the first-in, first-out basis. Inventory costs include raw materials,
direct labor and manufacturing overhead. Provision is made for obsolete, slow-moving or defective
items where appropriate. The amount of any provision is recognized as an expense in the period the
provision occurs.
Warranty Accrual The Companys products are subject to warranty periods of one year or
less. The warranty accrual is based on managements best estimate of expected costs associated
with product failure and historical product failures. The Company has not incurred any significant
warranty claims to date.
Fixed Assets Fixed assets, stated at cost, are depreciated on the straight-line method
for financial statement reporting purposes, over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which
range from three to ten years. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Betterments
or renewals are capitalized when they occur.
Deferred Charges Deferred charges are costs incurred in connection with the issuance of
debt. These costs are capitalized as an asset and amortized over the term of the debt.
Revenue Recognition Revenue is recognized when the product is shipped and the risks and
rewards of ownership have transferred to the customer. Since the Company takes title to the
inventory, bears the risk of loss for collection, delivery, or returns, and is responsible for
order fulfillment, revenues are recognized at the gross sales amounts billed to the customer. The
Company recognizes shipping and handling fees as revenue and the related expenses as a component of
cost of sales. All internal handling charges are charged to selling, general and administrative
expenses.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts
for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The
allowances are calculated based on a detailed review of individual customer accounts, historical
rates and an estimation of the overall economic conditions affecting the Companys customer base.
The Company reviews a customers credit history before extending credit. If the financial
condition of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make
payments, additional allowances may be required. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $14,600
at December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Customer Deposits The Company requires its distributors to pay a one-time fee for the
exclusive distribution rights to its products. In some cases, this nonrefundable fee represents a
prepayment by the distributor for future product purchases. In such cases the deposit is
recognized as revenue when products are shipped and the risks and rewards of ownership have been
transferred.
8
Cost Recognition Cost of revenues includes all direct material and labor costs and those
indirect costs of bringing raw materials to sale condition, including shipping and handling costs.
Selling, general, and administrative costs are charged to operating expenses as incurred. Research
and development costs are expensed as incurred and are included in operating expenses. Advertising
costs are expensed as incurred. Total advertising costs for 2009 and 2008 were $8,089 and $59,291,
respectively.
Long-Lived Assets The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment at least
annually. When indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be
generated by those assets are less than the assets carrying amount, the Company measures the
amount of such impairment by comparing the assets carrying value to the assets present value of
the expected future discounted cash flows.
Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax
consequences of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities that
will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future, 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 to reduce a deferred tax asset to the amount expected to be
realized. The Company assesses its ability to realize deferred tax assets based on current
earnings performance and on projections of future taxable income in the relevant tax jurisdictions.
These projections do not include taxable income from the reversal of deferred tax liabilities and
do not reflect a general growth assumption but do consider known or pending events, such as the
passage of legislation. The Companys estimates of future taxable income are reviewed
annually. All tax positions are first analyzed to determine if the weight of available
evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit,
including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. After the initial analysis,
the tax benefit is measured as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized
upon ultimate settlement. Our income tax returns are subject to
adjustment under audit for approximately the last four years.
Stock-Based Compensation The Company has adopted ASC 718 which requires all share-based
payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be expensed based on their
fair values.
Compensation expense for stock options is recorded over the vesting period using the fair value on
the date of grant, as calculated by the Company using the Black-Scholes model. The non-vested
restricted stock grant date fair value, which is the market price of the underlying common stock,
is expensed over the vesting period. The Company classifies all share-based awards as equity
instruments and recognizes the vesting of the awards ratably over their respective terms.
See Note 11 for a description of the Companys share-based compensation plan and information
related to awards granted under the plan.
NOTE 2 GOING CONCERN
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.
As
9
shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred ongoing net losses since
inception. These losses, with the associated substantial accumulated deficit, are a direct result
of the Companys product development activities and the costs of introducing its technologies to
the market and pursuing market acceptance. In view of these matters, realization of a major
portion of the assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets is dependent upon continued
operations of the Company which in turn is dependent upon the Companys ability to meet its
financing requirements, and the success of its future operations. The Company operates in a new,
developing industry with a variety of competitors. These factors raise substantial doubt about the
Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
Management believes that the Companys ability to continue as a going concern will be dependent on
its ability to raise additional capital and/or generate significant sales growth in the short term.
The Companys ability to achieve these objectives cannot be determined at this time. Managements
plans in regard to these matters are described as follows:
Sales and Marketing. Historically, the Company has selected qualified distributors to
represent its products in key geographic markets. These distributors have introduced and sold the
Companys products in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, New York, Maryland,
Massachusetts, New Jersey, North Carolina, Oregon, Texas and Wisconsin. The recent economic
downturn and other factors led to a significant contraction in sales revenue in 2009, as
municipalities, the Companys primary customers, experienced severe budgetary and financial
constraints. In an attempt to reinvigorate sales, the Company has redirected its focus on multiple
market segments and has revised its go-to-market strategy by disengaging distributors with
exclusive geographic territories, in favor of new alliances with larger companies to cover entire
market segments such as municipal stormwater, federal facilities, industrial process water and oil
spill response. The massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010 presents an additional market
opportunity and the Company is promoting special configurations of its Smart Sponge products to
address the extensive clean-up efforts associated with the spill. The Company is also making
efforts to expand into specific foreign markets.
Financing. To date, the Company has financed its operations with loans from shareholders, the
exercise of stock options and warrants, private placement financings and sales revenue. The
Company raised $2,211,000 in 2009 by issuing various debt instruments. Through the date of
issuance of these financial statements, the Company raised an additional $1,255,000 in 2010 from
additional sales of similar debt instruments. Management believes that with continued field
validation successes, an improving economy, federal regulatory approval of the Companys
antimicrobial technologies, and new strategic alliances with companies that are dominant in key
market sectors, sales revenue can grow rapidly thus enabling the Company to reverse its negative
cash flow and raise additional capital as needed. There is no assurance that the Company can
achieve sustainable operations or that additional capital, if needed, will be available on
acceptable terms.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability
and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities or any
other adjustment that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going
concern.

NOTE 6 LOANS FROM SHAREHOLDERS
Loans from shareholders at December 31, 2009 and 2008 consist of six (four in 2008) short term
loans made by Directors of the Company to the Company or its subsidiary, ESC. As of December 31,
2009,
11
these loans had interest rates ranging from 0% to 12% per annum and had maturity dates ranging from
due on demand to December, 2010, and are unsecured.
NOTE 7 RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Accounts receivable; related party represents amounts due from distributors owned by
certain AbTech stockholders. As of the date of issuance of these financial statements,
approximately $6,319 of the December 31, 2009 balance has been paid to the Company. The balance
remains outstanding and management deems this amount, net of reserves taken, to be collectible.
Royalty Agreement In 2009, the Company entered into a Royalty Agreement (the
Agreement) with Hydrophix of California (Hydrophix), a distributor owned by two stockholders of
the Company. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is required to pay to Hydrophix a
royalty equal to (i) 10% of revenues generated by AbTech from sales to Hydrophix of any products
containing Smart Sponge Plus material and (ii) 5% of all revenues generated by AbTech from sales of
a certain product to distributors other than Hydrophix, up to a maximum of $1,086,000. The first
$104,665 of royalties due under the Agreement is to be retained by AbTech as payment for
outstanding amounts due from Hydrophix. The term of the Agreement is ten years or the date on
which total royalty payments reaches $1,086,000, which is the maximum royalty allowed under the
Agreement. As of December 31, 2009, no royalties had been paid to, or earned by, Hydrophix under
this Agreement. The $104,665 due from Hydrophix, that is to be offset by future royalties payments
due under the Agreement, is included in Prepaids and other current assets net of a $26,000
reserve.
Due to related party (2009: $111,463 and 2008: $116,088) represents amounts owed to a
related company for services provided in the form of office and clerical support, and cash
advances. On December 31, 1998, the Company executed a loan document in the amount of $127,353,
with an original maturity date of December 31, 2003 (extended to December 31, 2013), with interest
accruing at the rate of 5% per annum until the loan is paid in full. In the event of default of
principal or interest, the entire unpaid balance, including principal and interest, will be due and
payable without notice, with interest accruing at 8% from the date of default.

NOTE 9 INCOME TAXES
There is no current or deferred tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 due to
the Companys loss position and full allowance on all future deferred tax assets.
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to deferred tax assets are as follows:
2009 | 2008 | |||||||
Deferred tax assets: |
||||||||
Net operating loss carryforwards |
$ | 8,621,000 | 7,685,000 | |||||

Less valuation allowance |
(8,621000 | ) | (7,685,000 | ) | ||||
Net deferred tax assets |
$ | | | |||||
At December 31, 2009, net current deferred tax benefit was approximately $936,000 (2008: $962,000)
and the net noncurrent deferred tax assets were approximately $7.6 million (2008: $6.7 million). At
December 31, 2009, the Company has federal and state loss carryforwards of approximately $21.5
million and $20 million, respectively, which are available to reduce future taxes, if any. These
net operating loss carryforwards expire through 2029 and 2014, respectively. The net change in the
total valuation allowance for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, was a net increase of
approximately $936,000. The net change in the total valuation allowance for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2008, was a net increase of approximately $962,000. Based on the Companys loss
position and projection of future taxable income, management believes that it is more likely than
not that the Company will not fully realize the benefit of its net deferred tax assets. Pursuant
to the Tax Reform Act of 1986, annual utilization of the Companys net operating loss carryforwards
may be limited if a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50% is deemed to occur within any
three-year period.
NOTE 10 CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES
At December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 the Company had Convertible Promissory Notes outstanding

In the event of liquidation of the Company, the Senior Convertible Notes have priority over the
Junior Convertible Notes. Additionally, holders of Senior Convertible Notes have priority over any
amounts due stockholders and other lenders of the Company, regardless of the form of payment which
may be due. The holder of the only interest bearing note in the chart above ($500,000 at 12%) has
the option to receive quarterly interest payments in the form of cash or converted into share of
Series A Preferred Stock at a conversion rate of $3.75 per share. A warrant was also issued with
this note for 44,444 shares of the Companys Series A preferred stock (See Note 11) at a conversion
price of $3.75 per share.
NOTE 11 STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY AND SHARE BASED COMPENSATION
Stock Options
AbTech grants stock options to officers, directors, employees and consultants under Stock Plans.
Stock Plans provide that up to 15% of the capital stock outstanding of the Company shall be
available for awards granted under the plan. The Board of Directors has approved a pool of 950,000
shares that may be granted under the 2007 Stock Option Plan, the Stock Plan currently in effect.
Options expire on the earlier of the stated expiration date or, in the case of incentive stock
options, ninety days after the date employment ends or, in the case of non-statutory options, 30
days after the optionee ceases to be a service provider to the Company. The stated expiration
dates occur between 2010 and 2019. Stock options are granted at the fair market value of the common
stock as determined by the Board of Directors on the date of grant and are exercisable subject to
vesting provisions and performance objectives. The company issues new authorized shares for the
exercise of stock options.
For 2009, the additional compensation expense of $173,364 for stock options under ASC 718 is
included in Selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of
operations ($146,474 in 2008). There was no related tax benefit recognized due to the Companys
loss position. At December 31, 2009, the Company had approximately $400,345 of total unrecognized
compensation cost related to unvested stock options. This cost is expected to be recognized over a
weighted-average period of approximately 1 year. No cash was received from the exercise of stock
options during 2009 or 2008.
Compensation expense was determined from the estimates of fair values of stock options granted
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following table summarizes the weighted average
of fair value and the significant assumptions used in applying the Black-Scholes model for options
granted in 2009 (there were no options granted in 2008):
14

0.0 | % | ||
Expected volatility |
15.0 | % | ||
Risk-free interest rate |
3.0 | % | ||
Expected life (in years) |
10.0 |
The assumptions for expected dividend yield, expected volatility and expected life reflect
managements judgment and include consideration of historical experience. Expected volatility is
based on historical volatility of the Companys shares and the historical volatility of public
companies or mutual funds operating in similar markets. The risk-free interest rate is based on
the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for periods corresponding with the
expected life of the option.

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
The Company has designated 3,500,000 of its 5,000,000 authorized preferred shares as Series A
Convertible Preferred Stock (Series A Stock) and has issued 1,510,875 of such shares to
investors. Series A Stock has a par value of $0.01 and no liquidation or dividend preferences.
The holders of Series A Stock may at any time elect to convert any or all such shares into common
shares of the Company at a conversion rate initially set at one share of common stock for each
share of Series A Stock, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments that protect Series A
Stockholders if the Company issues new shares at less than $3.75 per share. The Series A Stock
will automatically convert into common shares upon either (a) the closing of a firm underwritten
public offering, (b) subsequent listing on the New York Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ Global Market,
or (c) upon the sale or transfer of substantially all the assets or the consolidation or merger
with an entity solely for cash or solely for cash and securities listed on the New York Stock
Exchange or the NASDAQ Global Market.
As long as Series A Stockholders hold, on a converted basis, at least 8% of the Common Stock of the
Company, they will be granted a pre-emptive right to maintain their respective ownership
percentages, as determined on a fully-diluted basis, in subsequent sales of Common Stock or Common
Stock Equivalents conducted by the Company. Series A Stockholders have a right to designate up to
three Directors to the Board of Directors (Series A Directors) and the Series A Directors are
entitled to choose at least one member of the Audit Committee and one Member of the Compensation
Committee. Corporate governance provisions were also modified to require various levels of
supermajority approval by the Board for specific, major actions taken by the Company. For some
actions, approval of 2/3rds of the Series A Directors is required.
NOTE 12 LITIGATION, CLAIMS AND ASSESSMENTS
The Company experiences routine litigation in the normal course of its business. During 2008, the
Company responded to a complaint by the United States Environmental Protection Agency claiming
alleged violations of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) with regard
to sales of the Companys antimicrobial products. The Company settled the complaint with EPA
during 2009 and filed an application with EPA to register its antimicrobial products under FIFRA.
NOTE 13 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent
to December 31, 2009 and through the date of the auditors report
July 28, 2010, the following events
occurred:
17
| During January through June 2010 the Company raised $1,255,000 of capital by selling Convertible Senior Promissory Notes to investors. These non-interest bearing notes are convertible into shares of Series A Preferred Stock at $3.75 per share, are senior to any other outstanding debt of the Company, and are due five years from the date of issuance. | |
| During March and April of 2010 the Company raised $300,000 of capital by selling short-term promissory notes to investors. These notes have an interest rate of 12% and may be converted into Convertible Senior Promissory Notes, as described above, at any time prior to repayment. These notes mature 120 days from the date of issuance. | |
| On or about July 17, 2010, the Companys Board of Directors approved and the Company signed an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Abtech Holdings, Inc., formerly Laural Resources, Inc. (Laural). Under the terms of this agreement Laural agreed to acquire substantially all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of AbTech through a reverse acquisition transaction in exchange for the shareholders of AbTech acquiring approximately seventy eight percent (78%) ownership interest in Laural. This proposed transaction will require approval by shareholders prior to closing. If the transaction proceeds to closing, Laural has agreed to advance an aggregate of $3,000,000 in cash to AbTech. As of August 6, 2010, Laural has provided $845,000 of cash to the Company as an advance on the $3,000,000 due at closing and has agreed to provide additional advances of $200,000 per month until the closing of the transaction. If the transaction does not proceed to closing, any funds advanced to the Company will be either: (i) repaid to Laural, (ii) converted into an investment in the Convertible Senior Promissory Notes of AbTech, or (iii) converted into a common stock equity investment in AbTech at $3.75 per share. |

NOTE 4 Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going
concern. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its
operating costs. Therefore, in order to continue as a going concern the Company will need to
generate additional revenue and obtain additional capital to fund its operating losses.
Managements plans to generate additional revenues include the development of strategic
relationships and alliances with larger companies that have established distribution networks in
targeted markets and geographic areas; the introduction of the Companys products into new market
sectors; and expansion into additional geographic areas in the United States and worldwide. To
raise additional capital the Company plans to complete a reverse merger transaction that will
include new investment capital of at least $3,000,000 (See NOTE 6 Subsequent Events). As of
September 30, 2010, the Company had received cash advances on this funding of $945,000. Management
cannot provide any assurance that the Company can obtain sufficient additional capital to fund
operations or that the Company can achieve sustainable operations.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of
liabilities or any other adjustment that might be necessary should the Company be unable to
continue as a going concern.
NOTE 5 Subsequent Events
The
Company has evaluated subsequent events from September 30, 2010
through February 11, 2011.
