NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Corporate Organization

The Company was incorporated on June 12, 2006 as a limited liability company (“LLC”), under the name Envision Solar, LLC.  In September 2007, the company was reorganized as a California C Corporation and issued one share of common stock for each outstanding member unit in the LLC.  Also during 2007, the Company formed various wholly owned subsidiaries to account for its planned future operations. During 2008, only two subsidiaries were operational, with a third, Envision Africa, LLC anticipated becoming operational in the future. The remaining subsidiaries were dissolved with the Secretary of State of California in 2008.  Later during 2010, Envision Africa LLC was also dissolved.  The two subsidiaries included in these unaudited consolidated financial statements are: Envision Solar Residential, Inc. and Envision Solar Construction Company, Inc.

On February 11, 2010, Envision Solar International, Inc., a California corporation (Envision CA) was acquired by an inactive publicly-held company in a transaction treated as a recapitalization of the Company with Envision CA being the surviving corporation and becoming our wholly-owned subsidiary. On March 11, 2010, Envision CA was merged into our publicly-held company and the name of the publicly-held company was changed to Envision Solar International, Inc. (along with its subsidiaries, hereinafter the “Company”, "us", "we", "our" or "Envision"). The effects of the recapitalization have been retroactively applied to all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes.

Nature of Operations

The Company is a solar products, project and technology developer providing turn-key design/build solutions for commercial, industrial and institutional projects.  Founded by award-winning sustainable design architects with extensive international business development and industrial design expertise, the Company strives to be first-to-market and the leading worldwide brand in solar parking arrays.  The Company has three distinct business offerings, each of which complements the others, including professional services, products, and program, project and construction management services. The Company has envisioned, invented, and engineered the leading next generation, patent pending, parking arrays and “solar integrated building systems™” (SIBS™) which are providing the foundation for the lowest cost, most highly engineered solutions available for the massive worldwide market for solar parking array installations.

The Company’s business model includes vertical integration of all key capabilities required for the full, turn-key “single-point-of-contract™” implementation of each project. These capabilities include project planning and management, design, construction, and operations and maintenance.  The Company is continuing to secure its position as the key participant at the convergence of solar energy and the real estate and building industry.

The Company operates with the following trade names: ParkSolarSM: Commercial Scale Solar Parking Arrays, and LifeSystemsSM: Component-Based Solar Integrated Buildings.

ENVISION SOLAR INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011
(Unaudited)
 
 
Basis of Presentation

The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications and non-recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly our results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 and our financial position as of March 31, 2011 have been made.  The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.

Certain information and disclosures normally included in the notes to the annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted from these interim financial statements.  Accordingly, these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010.  The December 31, 2010 consolidated balance sheet is derived from those statements.

Principals of Consolidation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Envision Solar International, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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. Significant estimates in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, depreciable lives of property and equipment, estimates of costs to complete uncompleted contracts, estimates of loss contingencies, valuation of accrued rent, valuation of derivatives, valuation of beneficial conversion features in convertible debt, valuation of share-based payments, valuation of accrued loss contingencies,  and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

Concentrations

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash, accounts receivable, and revenues.

The Company maintains its cash in bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts from inception through March 31, 2011. As of March 31, 2011, there was $150,081 greater than the federally insured limits.

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011

Concentration of Accounts Receivable

As of March 31, 2011, customers that each represented more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable balance were as follows:

 
2011
Customer A
64%
Customer B
27%


Concentration of Revenues

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, customers that each represented more than 10% of our net revenues were as follows:

 
2011
Customer A
96%


Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purposes of the unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010 respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short term loans, are carried at historical cost basis. At March 31, 2011, the carrying amounts of these instruments approximated their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Accounting for Derivatives
 
The Company evaluates its convertible instruments, options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”.  The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the 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 (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.  Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815 are reclassified to liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.
 
Revenue Recognition

Revenues consist of design fees for the design of solar systems and arrays, and revenues from sales of professional services. Additionally, revenues are also derived from construction projects for the construction and installation of integrated solutions and proprietary products.

Revenues from design services and professional services are recognized as earned.

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011
(Unaudited)

Revenues and related costs on construction projects are recognized using the “percentage of completion method” of accounting in accordance with ASC 605-35, “Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts”, formerly Statement of Position 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts.”  Under this method, contract revenues are recognized over the performance period of the contract in direct proportion to the costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs for the entirety of the contract.  Costs include direct material, direct labor, subcontract labor and any allocable indirect costs and are charged to the periods as incurred. All unallocable indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are also charged to the periods as incurred. Any recognized revenues that have not been billed to a customer are recorded as an asset in “costs in excess of billings and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts.” Any billings of customers in excess of recognized revenues are recorded as a liability in “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts.”  However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss when such loss is determined.

Through July 1, 2010 and prospectively for contracts that do not qualify for use of the percentage of completion method, the Company accounts for construction contracts using the “completed contract method” of accounting in accordance with ASC 605-35.  Under this method, contract costs are accumulated as deferred assets and billings and/or cash received are recorded to a deferred revenue liability account during the periods of construction, but no revenues, costs or profits are recognized in operations until the period upon completion of the contract. Costs include direct material, direct labor, subcontract labor and any allocable indirect costs. All unallocable indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are charged to the periods as incurred. However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss when such loss is determined. The deferred asset (accumulated contract costs) in excess of the deferred liability (billings and/or cash received) is classified as a current asset under “Costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts.”  The deferred liability (billings and/or cash received) in excess of the deferred asset (accumulated contract costs) is classified under current liabilities as “Billings in excess of costs on uncompleted contracts.”

A contract is considered complete when all costs except insignificant items have been incurred and the installation is operating according to specifications or has been accepted by the customer.

The Company has contracts in various stages of completion.  Such contracts require estimates to determine the appropriate cost and revenue recognition.  Costs estimates are reviewed periodically on a contract-by-contract basis throughout the life of the contract such that adjustments to the profit resulting from revisions are made cumulative to the date of the revision.  Significant management judgments and estimates, including the estimated costs to complete projects, must be made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in the accounting period.  Current estimates may be revised as additional information becomes available.

The Company includes shipping and handling fees billed to customers as revenues, and shipping and handling costs as cost of revenues.  The Company does not provide any warranties on its products other than those passed on to its customers from its manufacturers, if any.  As the Company expands its product offerings, it will offer expanded warranties on certain components.  Management will, at that time, estimate any potential future liability related to such warranties and record a liability for such occurrences.

Net Loss Per Share
 
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the periods presented.  Diluted net loss per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period.  Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, stock warrants, convertible debt instruments or other common stock equivalents.

(Unaudited)

Convertible debt convertible into 4,905,087 common shares, options to purchase 12,200,098 common shares and warrants to purchase 7,129,719 common shares were outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2011, but were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because the effects would have been anti-dilutive.  These options and warrants may dilute future earnings per share.
 
Reclassifications
 
Certain amounts in the accompanying 2010 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2011 classification. These reclassifications were not material and had no effect on the total assets, liabilities, stockholders’ deficit, gross profit, loss from operations, or net loss.
 
Segments
 
The Company follows ASC 280-10 for, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." During 2011, the Company only operated in one segment; therefore, segment information has not been presented.

New Accounting Pronouncements

There are no new accounting pronouncements during the three month period ended March 31, 2011 that effect the consolidated financial position of the Company or the results of its’ operations.  Any Accounting Standard Updates which are not effective until after March 31, 2011 are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of its’ operations.

2. 
GOING CONCERN

As reflected in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company had net losses of $1,327,987 (which includes stock based compensation for options of $10,440) and cash used in operations of $515,952. Additionally, at March 31, 2011, the Company had a working capital deficit of $4,038,327, an accumulated deficit of $21,120,954 and a stockholders’ deficit of $3,856,831.

Envision is currently conducting a capital raise whereby it intends to raise an additional $500,000 in the upcoming three month period.  Additionally, the Company plans to pursue an additional follow on capital raise to raise an additional $5,000,000. Further, the Company has contracted backlog and continues to seek out new contracts and projects that will provide additional revenues and operating profits.  All such funds are expected to be sufficient to cover monthly operating expenses as well as meet minimum payments with respect to the Company’s liabilities over the next twelve months in addition to providing additional working capital. From January 1, 2011, through the date of this filing, the Company has raised $1,667,250 under the offering.
 
The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to therecoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

3. 
CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE - RELATED PARTY

During 2009, John Evey advanced $50,000 in March and $50,000 in September to the Company.  On October 1, 2009, the Company executed a 10% convertible promissory note for $102,236, which included the total $100,000 principal advanced plus $2,236 of accrued interest.  This note was due December 31, 2010 and is convertible to common shares at $0.33 per share.  There was no beneficial conversion feature at the note date.   This note is subordinate to the Gemini Master Funds notes. On April 27, 2010, Mr. Evey was added to the Board of Directors of Envision.

Pegasus Note

On December 19, 2009, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note for $100,000 to a new landlord in lieu of paying rent for one year for new office space.  The interest is 10% per annum with the note principal and interest due December 18, 2010.  However, if the Company receives greater than $100,000 of proceeds from debt or equity financing, 25% of the amount in excess of $100,000 shall be used to pay down the note.  This note is subordinate to all existing senior indebtedness of the Company.  This note is convertible at $0.33 per share.  There was no beneficial conversion feature at the note date.  On March 28, 2011, the Company entered into a revised agreement to extend the maturity date of the note to December 31, 2011. Further, throughout the time period of the current private offering, the lender agreed to waive the requirement that 25% of the amount of any financing in excess of $100,000 be used to pay down the note balance.  As a result of this extension, the Company recorded $18,480 of embedded conversion option based effective interest in March 2011 which represents the increase in fair value of the embedded conversion option at the extension date, and is recorded as debt discount and is being amortized over the remaining term of the note. The interest on the note continues to accrue at a rate of 10%. Accrued interest on this convertible promissory note was $3,067 at March 31, 2011.

Gemini Note

On January 20, 2010, the Company entered into a Second Amendment Agreement with Gemini Master Fund, LTD whereby certain terms of the First Amendment Agreement were modified.  Under the Second Amendment Agreement the conversion price for all previous notes was reduced from $0.33 to $0.25 per share; the interest payment was extended from January 4, 2010 to April 1, 2010; and the beneficial ownership percentage was reduced from 9.9% to 4.9%.  There was no accounting effect for the price reductions as the conversion prices were greater than the fair value of the common stock.

On February 12, 2010, the Company issued to Gemini Master Fund, LTD the Second Amended and Restated Secured Bridge Note in the amount of $811,792 consolidating all principal amounts outstanding at this date along with all accrued but unpaid interest.  The terms of the note did not change. Prior to such issue, the Company paid down approximately $69,000 of the outstanding balance.
 
On March 10, 2010, the Company entered into a new secured note with Gemini Master Fund, LTD, Note No. 5, for $75,000.  The new note bears interest at 12% per annum, payable in quarterly installments of the accrued and unpaid interest, beginning April 1, 2010, with the note maturing on December 31, 2010. In the event a quarterly payment is late, it incurs a late fee of 20%.  The note carries a conversion feature whereby, the lender, at its option, may at any time convert this loan into common stock at $0.25 per share.  There is no beneficial conversion value as the conversion price was deemed to be equal to or greater that the fair value of the common stock.
 
Prior to June 30, 2010 all shares underlying the Gemini Master Fund convertible debt were subject to a lock-up agreement, and the shares were not easily convertible to cash thus, the embedded conversion option did not need to be bifurcated and recorded as a fair value derivative due to the price protection provision in the notes.  Subsequent to June 30, 2010, such lock-up provisions expired and as such, the Company has determined that the embedded conversion option met the definition of a derivative liability and thus must be bifurcated and recorded as a fair value derivative.
 
On July 1, 2010 the Company established an embedded conversion option liability of $868,591 for the above mentioned $886,792 of Gemini debt.  The Company recorded a debt discount of $868,591 related to the fair value of the liability for the embedded conversion option.  The fair value was determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions:  stock price $0.48, conversion price $0.25, expected term of six months based on the contractual term, volatility of 86% based on historical volatility, and a risk free interest rate of 0.2%.  As of December 31, 2010, the Company amortized all $868,591 of such debt discount to interest expense.
 
As of December 31, 2010, interest of $96,996 had accrued on the two Gemini Master Fund, LTD notes’.  Further, on December 31, 2010, the Company entered into an extension agreement to extend the maturity date of the notes to December 31, 2011.  As part of this agreement, all accrued but unpaid interest was capitalized into the note balance along with an extension fee of $73,784. Such extension fee, recorded as additional debt discount, is being amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the note.  Additionally, as a result of the note modification, $360,895 of embedded conversion option based effective interest (due to the increase in the value of the embedded conversion option) was recorded as additional debt discount and is being amortized over the remaining new term of the debt.  This effective interest also increased the fair value of the derivative liability by the same $360,895 amount on the modification date.  At March 31, 2011, the notes had a total balance outstanding of $1,057,572, and a net balance of $731,563.  The interest on the note continues to accrue at a rate of 12%.
 
Fair Value Measurements – Derivative liability:
 
The accounting standard for fair value measurements provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements.  Fair value is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  The accounting standard established a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available.  This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows.  Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.  Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.  Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value.  An asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis consisted of the following at March 31, 2011:
  
            Fair value Measurements at March 31, 2011

Balance December 31, 2010   $ 963,931  
Change in Fair Value   $ 663,848  
Balance March 31, 2011   $ 1,627,779  

Changes in fair value of the embedded conversion option liability are included in other income (expense) in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The Company estimates the fair value of the embedded conversion liability utilizing the Black-Scholes pricing model, which is dependent upon several variables such as the expected term (based on contractual term), expected volatility of our stock price over the expected term (based on historical volatility), expected risk-free interest rate over the expected term, and the expected dividend yield rate over the expected term.  The Company believes this valuation methodology is appropriate for estimating the fair value of the derivative liability.  The following table summarizes the assumptions the Company utilized to estimate the fair value of the embedded conversion option at March 31, 2011:
  
Assumptions  
Expected term 0.75
Expected Volatility 99%
Risk free rate 0.2%
Dividend Yield 0.00%
  
There were no changes in the valuation techniques during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This report contains forward-looking statements that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about us, the industry in which we operate and other matters, as well as management's beliefs and assumptions and other statements regarding matters that are not historical facts. These statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies and prospects. For example, when we use words such as "projects," "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," "should," "would," "could," "will," "opportunity," "potential" or "may," and variations of such words or other words that convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes, we are making forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may cause the Company’s actual results to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied by the Company in those statements.  The most important factors that could prevent the Company from achieving its stated goals include, but are not limited to, the following:

 
(a)
volatility or decline of the Company’s stock price;

 
(b)
potential fluctuation in quarterly results;

 
(c)
failure of the Company to earn revenues or profits;

 
(d)
inadequate capital to continue or expand its business, and inability to raise additional capital or financing to implement its business plans;

 
(e)
unavailability of capital or financing to prospective customers of the Company to enable them to purchase products and services from the Company;

 
(f)
failure to commercialize the Company’s technology or to make sales;

 
(g)
reductions in demand for the Company’s products and services, whether because of competition, general industry conditions, loss of tax incentives for solar power, technological obsolescence or other reasons;

 
(h)
rapid and significant changes in markets;

 
(i)
litigation with or legal claims and allegations by outside parties;

                                
(j) 
insufficient revenues to cover operating costs, resulting in persistent losses; and

 
(k)
potential dilution of the ownership of existing shareholders in the Company due to the issuance of new securities by the Company in the future.

There is no assurance that the Company will be profitable.  The Company may not be able to successfully develop, manage or market its products and services. The Company may not be able to attract or retain qualified executives and other personnel.  Intense competition may suppress the prices that the Company can charge for its products and services, hindering profitability or causing losses.  The Company may not be able to obtain customers for its products or services.  Government regulation may hinder the Company’s business. Additional dilution in outstanding stock ownership may be incurred due to the issuance of more shares, warrants and stock options, or the exercise of outstanding warrants and stock options. The Company is exposed to other risks inherent in its businesses.

Because the statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.  The Company cautions you not to place undue reliance on the statements, which speak only as of the date of this unaudited Form 10-Q.  Forward looking statements and other disclosures in this report speak only as of the date they are made.  The cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section should be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that the Company or persons acting on its behalf may issue.  The Company does not undertake any obligation to review or confirm analysts’ expectations or estimates or to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10-Q, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

OVERVIEW:
 
Prior to February 11, 2010, we were a “shell company”, as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, without material assets or activities. On February 11, 2010, we completed a merger pursuant to which a wholly owned subsidiary of ours merged with and into Envision Solar International, Inc., a California corporation ("Envision CA"), with Envision being the surviving corporation and becoming our wholly owned subsidiary. On March 11, 2010, Envision CA was merged into our publicly-held company and the name of the publicly-held company was changed to Envision Solar International, Inc. (hereinafter, with its subsidiaries, “Envision”, “Company”, “us”, “we” or “our”). In connection with this merger, we discontinued our former business and succeeded to the business of Envision as our sole line of business. The merger is being accounted for as a recapitalization, with Envision deemed to be the accounting acquirer and Casita Enterprises, Inc. ("Casita") the acquired company. Accordingly, Envision’s historical financial statements for periods prior to the merger have become those of the registrant (Casita) retroactively restated for, and giving effect to, the number of shares received in the merger. The accumulated earnings of Envision were also carried forward after the acquisition. Operations reported for periods prior to the merger are those of Envision.

Overview

The Company is a solar product, project and technology developer providing turn-key design/build solutions for commercial, industrial and institutional projects.  Founded by award-winning sustainable design architects with extensive international business development and industrial design expertise, the Company strives to be first-to-market and the leading worldwide brand in solar parking arrays.  The Company has three distinct business offerings each of which complements the others:

1. Professional Services

The Company's professional services are comprised of architectural and engineering services covering all aspects of the design and engineering required to perform the turn key installation of the Company's proprietary solar support systems. The Company also provides entitlement services to ensure that customer projects are approved by the jurisdictions in which the projects are installed. The Company provides electrical and structural engineering internally and through outsourcing agreements with two preferred vendors. The Company also provides sustainable master planning services to cities, corporations or other large campus managing organizations.

2. Products

The Company produces two product lines which contain some variants. The first group is ParkSolarSM products which are solar shaded parking arrays. The Solar Tree® structure is a 35'X35' solar array standing on a single central column which shades 6 parking spaces and can generate up to 24000 kw/hrs per year. The Company adds proprietary, patent pending, EnvisionTrak™ tracking systems to the Solar Tree® structure for an increase in production output.  The Company's CleanCharge™ product involves the integration of up to 6 EV charging stations into the column of each Solar Tree® structure. Solar Tree® structures can generate approximately enough electricity to fully charge between 6 and 8 Electric Vehicles (EV) in a day. Further optional attachments include lights, CCTV, Flat Screen advertising panels, WiFi radios and others. The Company also offers customized versions of this product for an increased cost to the customer. Our other main product in this space is the solar Socket™ Solar Tree® structure which is identical to the primary Solar Tree® product described above except that the array is one tenth the size and is designed to shade one parking space and charge one EV. The Socket™ Solar Tree® structure employs EnvisionTrak™ and CleanCharge™. All Solar Tree® structures are architecturally accretive, highly engineered and well built with high quality components. The second group of products belongs to the LifeSystemsSM group and includes LifePort® and LifeVillage™. These are solar integrated building systems™ (SIBS™) and groups of those systems, that can be rapidly deployed in any environment, domestic or international, urban or remote. These buildings provide solar energy and can be kitted as Forward Operating Bases (FOBs), field hospitals or other vital infrastructure in remote locations where it is costly and/or dangerous to deliver carbon based fuels. The Company is primarily committing its resources to the fulfillment of the ParkSolarSM business but will service bulk orders of the LifeSystemsSM products for military and other applications if and when received.

3. Program, Project and Construction Management Services

The Company performs turnkey installation services for its products. The Company is capable of offering full service turnkey installations anywhere in the US and is currently installing Solar Tree® structures in Pennsylvania, Michigan and California as of the date of this filing. The Company has program, project, and construction management and administration skill sets internally as well as leveraging a stable of vetted and trained subcontractors to provide the concrete, electrical contracting and general contracting services required in each market. Regarding manufacturing, steel fabrication is outsourced to a preferred vendor. The structures are then shipped to any location where local resources can perform the installation services under the Company's supervision. The Company is able to work in union-controlled environments through the supervision of local union resources and delivering products "kit style" to the sites for their installation.  All design and engineering takes place in the Company's San Diego headquarters as do all support and administrative functions.

Envision is built on a foundation of solar architecture and industrial design, and long-term experience in the building and construction industry, along with innovative building systems technology. The technology component resides in various patented and patent-pending intellectual properties. The solid project and product delivery capabilities were developed through management’s experiences with top sustainable, industrial design and technology firms, financial service providers, and solar companies as well as real estate development and product manufacturing firms. We believe that our innovation is a key differentiator for the Company, as we have manifested the creativity and passion to invent new designs using our existing products, solutions and processes to turn a piece of relatively unused and bare real estate into a value-enhancing “Solar Grove®”.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
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. Significant estimates in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, depreciable lives of property and equipment, estimates of costs to complete uncompleted contracts, estimates of loss contingencies, valuation of accrued rent, valuation of derivatives, valuation of beneficial conversion features in convertible debt, valuation of share-based payments, valuation of accrued loss contingencies,  and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

Revenue and Cost Recognition.  Revenues consist of design fees for the design of solar systems and arrays, and revenues from sales of professional services. Additionally, revenues are also derived from construction projects for the construction and installation of integrated solutions and proprietary products.

Revenues from design services and professional services are recognized as earned.

Revenues and related costs on construction projects are recognized using the “percentage of completion method” of accounting in accordance with ASC 605-35, “Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts”, formerly Statement of Position 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts.”  Under this method, contract revenues are recognized over the performance period of the contract in direct proportion to the costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs for the entirety of the contract.  Costs include direct material, direct labor, subcontract labor and any allocable indirect costs and are charged to the periods as incurred. All unallocable indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are also charged to the periods as incurred. Any recognized revenues that have not been billed to a customer are recorded as an asset in “costs in excess of billings and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts.” Any billings of customers in excess of recognized revenues are recorded as a liability in “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts.”  However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss when such loss is determined.

Through July 1, 2010 and prospectively for contracts that do not qualify for use of the percentage of completion method, the Company accounts for construction contracts using the “completed contract method” of accounting in accordance with ASC 605-35.  Under this method, contract costs are accumulated as deferred assets and billings and/or cash received are recorded to a deferred revenue liability account during the periods of construction, but no revenues, costs or profits are recognized in operations until the period upon completion of the contract. Costs include direct material, direct labor, subcontract labor and any allocable indirect costs. All unallocable indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are charged to the periods as incurred. However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss when such loss is determined. The deferred asset (accumulated contract costs) in excess of the deferred liability (billings and/or cash received) is classified as a current asset under “Costs in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts.”  The deferred liability (billings and/or cash received) in excess of the deferred asset (accumulated contract costs) is classified under current liabilities as “Billings in excess of costs on uncompleted contracts.”

A contract is considered complete when all costs except insignificant items have been incurred and the installation is operating according to specifications or has been accepted by the customer.

The Company has contracts in various stages of completion.  Such contracts require estimates to determine the appropriate cost and revenue recognition.  Costs estimates are reviewed periodically on a contract-by-contract basis throughout the life of the contract such that adjustments to the profit resulting from revisions are made cumulative to the date of the revision.  Significant management judgments and estimates, including the estimated costs to complete projects, must be made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in the accounting period.  Current estimates may be revised as additional information becomes available.

The Company includes shipping and handling fees billed to customers as revenues, and shipping and handling costs as cost of revenues.  The Company does not provide any warranties on its products other than those passed on to its customers from its manufacturers, if any.  As the Company expands its product offerings, it will offer expanded warranties on certain components.  Management will, at that time, estimate any potential future liability related to such warranties and record a liability for such occurrences.

Stock Based Compensation.  At inception, we adopted ASC 718, Share Based Payment and Related Interpretations. ASC 718 requires companies to estimate and recognize the fair value of stock-based awards to employees and directors. The value of the portion of an award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line attribution method.  We estimate the fair value of each stock option at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Accounts Receivable.  Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms.  Management reviews accounts receivable on a monthly basis to determine if any receivables will potentially be uncollectible.  Management’s evaluation includes several factors including the aging of the accounts receivable balances, a review of significant past due accounts, our historical write-off experience, net of recoveries and economic conditions.  The Company includes any accounts receivable balances that are determined to be uncollectible, along with a general reserve, in its overall allowance for doubtful accounts.  After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments.  We measure our financial assets and liabilities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  For certain of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short term loans, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
 
Changes in Accounting Principles.  No significant changes in accounting principles were adopted during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Accounting for derivatives.  The Company evaluates its options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”.  The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the 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 (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.  Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815 are reclassified to liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.

Results of Operations

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010

Revenue.   For the three months ended March 31, 2011, our revenue was $268,488 compared to $162,626 for the same period in 2010.  This increase in revenue was attributable to two main elements. First, in the recent years leading into 2010, the market and economic conditions created an environment in which potential customers had greater than usual difficulty in securing the financing required for certain types of solar developments. This market climate is easing and the Company is seeing increased activity related to projects with financing sensitivity. Second, the Company underwent a restructuring and a merger in 2010 and elected to divert its internal resources to the successful execution of the restructuring and the merger, as well as to creating a foundation from which it could take advantage of the significant pipeline it has developed for product and service sales in future periods.  These two elements created a situation where our contracted base of business was minimal coming into 2010 and thus the Company had lower revenues. The Company found success during 2010 in building the foundation which has led to an increased in the contracted base of business and thus more revenues in 2011.

Gross Profit.  For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we had a gross loss of $4,150 compared to a gross profit of $112,723 for the same period in 2010.   The loss in 2011 was associated with one specific project and was attributable to two contributing factors: (i) inaccurate cost estimating in pricing exercises performed prior to the Company's restructuring efforts and (ii) unforeseen site conditions which increased the costs of completion.  The project was sold in 2010 but completed in the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Operating Expenses.  Total operating expenses were $486,491 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $537,537 for the same period in 2010.  The higher costs in 2010 related primarily to legal and accounting expenses associated with the merger transactions the Company completed in the period.
 
 Provision for Income Taxes.  Our income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were $1,600, compared to $0 for the same period in 2010.  We did not incur any federal tax liability for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 because we incurred operating losses in these periods. Taxes paid specifically related to State of California Franchise Taxes in the three months ended March 31, 2011, as we recorded minimum payments to the state. 

Interest Expense.  Interest expense was $171,898 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $36,428 for the same period in 2010. The increase was primarily derived from the amortization of debt discount in the period ended March 31, 2011 as it relates to the embedded conversion option derivative components of the current debt instruments that took effect after the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Net Earnings (loss).  We generated net losses of $1,327,987 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to approximately $461,037 for the same period in 2010. In addition to the items discussed above, the increase in losses in 2011 is attributable to the recording of a $663,848 noncash charge for the change in fair value of embedded conversion option liability booked during the period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At March 31, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $548,146. We have historically met our cash needs through a combination of cash flows from operating activities, proceeds from private placements of our securities, and from loans. Our cash requirements are generally for operating activities. 

Our operating activities used cash in operations of $515,952 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, and we used cash in operations of $296,039 for the same period in 2010. The principal elements of cash flow from operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011 included a net loss of $1,327,987 offset by depreciation expense of $16,257, stock-based compensation expense of $10,440, the non cash amortization of debt discount of $122,649, and by the non cash change in the fair value of the embedded conversion liability of $663,848.

Cash received in our financing activities was $1,000,024 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to cash received of approximately $275,000 during the same period in 2010.  The 2011 increase in cash is attributable to additional equity financing through the sale of common stock.

As of March 31, 2011, current liabilities exceeded current assets by approximately $4,000,000. Current assets increased from $147,563 at December 31, 2010 to $752,172 at March 31, 2011 while current liabilities increased to $4,790,499 at March 31, 2011 from $3,903,106 at December 31, 2010. A large portion of the current liability balance, and the related increase, is a $1,627,779 non cash liability for the embedded conversion option liability which increased by $663,848 during the three months ended March 31, 2011.  As a result, our working capital decreased from a deficit of $3,755,543 at December 31, 2010 to a deficit of $4,038,327 at March 31, 2011.

Management believes that changes in the operations of the Company will allow it to execute on the strategic plan and enable it to experience profitable growth in the future. Those changes are: addition of new experienced management, management of overhead costs, process improvements, increased public awareness of the Company and its products, improvements in the capital markets and the maturation of certain long sales cycle opportunities.  Management believes that these changes in the operational structure and management of the Company will enable the Company to generate sufficient revenue and gross margins and raise additional growth capital to allow the Company to manage its debt burden appropriately and continue the Company' growth. There is no assurance, however, as to if or when the Company will be able to achieve those investment objectives. The Company does not have sufficient capital to meet its current cash needs, which include the costs of compliance with the continuing reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  The Company is in the process of seeking additional capital and long term debt financing to attempt to overcome its working capital deficit.  The Company is currently conducting a private placement of its stock to raise capital, but there is no assurance that the Company can raise sufficient capital or obtain sufficient financing to enable it to sustain monthly operations.  In order to address its working capital deficit, the Company is increasing sales of its existing products and services. There may not be sufficient funds available to the Company to enable it to remain in business and the Company’s needs for additional financing are likely to persist, although recent operational and business development changes are causing this situation to improve.

Going Concern Qualification

The Company has incurred significant losses from operations, and such losses are expected to continue. The Company’s auditors have included a "Going Concern Qualification" in their report for the year ended December 31, 2010.  In addition, the Company has limited working capital and is in default on a note payable. The foregoing raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans include seeking additional capital or debt financing. There is no guarantee that additional capital or debt financing will be available when and to the extent required, or that if available, it will be on terms acceptable to the Company. Further, the Company continues to seek out and sign contracts for new projects that should provide additional revenues and operating profits. The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  The "Going Concern Qualification" might make it substantially more difficult to raise capital.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources, that is material to investors.

Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
 
At the end of the period covered by this filing, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the disclosure controls and procedures of our Company were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports was recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis.
 
The Company is undertaking to improve its internal control over financial reporting and improve its disclosure controls and procedures.  As of December 31, 2010, we had identified the following material weaknesses which still exist as of March 31, 2011 and through the date of this report:
 
 
 
 
-22-

 
 
As of March 31, 2011, December 31, 2010 and as of the date of this report, we did not maintain effective controls over the control environment. Specifically, the Board of Directors does not currently have a director who qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-B.  Also, because of the size of the Company’s administrative staff, controls related to the segregation of certain duties have not been developed and the Company has not been able to adhere to them. Furthermore, we have not formally adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that governs the Company’s employees, officers and directors.  Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
 
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.  Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of March 31, 2011, December 31, 2010, and as of the date of this report, we did not maintain effective controls over the financial reporting control environment.  Specifically, the Board of Directors does not currently have a director who qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-B.  Further, because of the limited size of its administrative support staff, and due to the financial constraints on the Company, management has not been able to develop or implement controls related to the segregation of duties for purposes of financial reporting.
 
Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2011, based on the criteria established in the “Internal Control Integrated Framework” issued by COSO.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2011, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.   Legal Proceedings

The Company may be involved in legal actions and claims arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time.  The following is a list of ongoing litigation matters:

On March 24, 2011, the Company agreed to settle the lawsuit filed in July 2009 by a company owned by one of our shareholders primarily related to past due obligations. The settlement calls for a payment of $50,000 upon signing the settlement agreement and future payments in each of the subsequent 5 months of either 1) $35,000 in cash or 2) stock equivalent to $35,000 based on the end of day closing price of the Company’s stock on the 1st trading day of said month, at the Company’s option. The Company paid the initial $50,000 payment and has a total of $175,000 accrued liability as of March 31, 2011.

On December 7, 2010, the Company reached a legal settlement with a former vendor related to outstanding payables owed by Company.  The terms of the settlement stipulate that the Company owes the vendor $139,818 plus 10% accrued interest.  The Company has accrued payables to this vendor representing the settlement amount and accrued interest of $173,685 at March 31, 2011. 

Item 2.              Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds                                                                                                        

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company issued 3,348,571 shares of common stock to thirty five different investors in a private placement made and exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  The net proceeds of this private placement were used to pay accounts payable and for general working capital.
