NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Merger

On January 29, 2010, InovaChem, Inc., a Delaware corporation, completed the acquisition of NuGen Mobility, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“NuGen” or “NuGen Mobility”), pursuant to the Merger Agreement dated January 29, 2010(the “Merger Agreement”), by and among InovaChem, Inc., NuGen and InovaChem Mergerco II, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of InovaChem, Inc. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, NuGen merged (the “Merger”) with and into InovaChem Mergerco II, and NuGen, as the surviving corporation, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of InovaChem, Inc. On February 26, 2010, the board of directors and stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation changing the Company’s name from InovaChem, Inc. to NuGen Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “NuGen Holdings”). The Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation became effective on March 4, 2010.

Upon the closing of the Merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement, each issued and outstanding share of NuGen’s common stock was converted into 24,422.48 shares of NuGen Holdings’ common stock. As a result, an aggregate of 27,133,384 shares of NuGen Holdings’ common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) were issued to the two shareholders of NuGen. Simultaneous with the closing of the Merger, 15,236,667 shares of Common Stock were redeemed by NuGen Holdings for a cash payment of $152. Following the redemption of these shares, the two shareholders of NuGen owned approximately 81% of NuGen Holdings.

The Merger is being accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization. NuGen is the acquirer for accounting purposes and NuGen Holdings is the acquiree. Accordingly, NuGen’s historical financial statements for periods prior to the acquisition become those of the acquirer retroactively restated for the equivalent number of shares received in the Merger. The accumulated deficit of NuGen is carried forward after the acquisition. Operations prior to the Merger are those of NuGen. Earnings per share for the period prior to the Merger are restated to reflect the equivalent number of shares outstanding.

Description of Business

The Company is engaged, through its wholly-owned subsidiary NuGen, in the research, development and sale of permanent magnet electric motors and the electronic controls for such motors. Our facility is located in Ashburn, Virginia. Our revenue is derived primarily from contract research and development engineering services. Our technology relates to specialty electric drive engines and related components. This technology is currently being sold directly to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) pursuant to technical assistance agreements. The agreements generally provide for us to engineer our technology to run in various platforms (e.g. vehicles, electric generators and motors) and to be adapted to a customer’s particular application. We offer these services from our facility located in Virginia, to customers that require high-efficiency, reliable, compact permanent magnet electrical motor systems, controllers, vehicle interface modules (including energy storage, management and monitoring systems) and related software. Our technology is used primarily to convert electrical power into mechanical power so that mechanical power can be used to propel a vehicle or run a generator and may be used in markets ranging from electric/hybrid electric vehicles to materials handling equipment, distributive power, ground support equipment, motion control, and military systems.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations. It is management's opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NuGen Holdings, Inc, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, NuGen Mobility, Inc., and Trinterprise, LLC. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
We consider cash on hand and investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company at times has cash in banks in excess of FDIC insurance limits. The Company did not have deposits in excess of FDIC insurance limits as of March 31, 2011, and had $491,497 in excess of FDIC insurance limits at September 30, 2010.
 
Accounts Receivable

We extend unsecured credit to most of our customers following a review of the customers' financial condition and credit history. We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon a number of factors including the length of time accounts receivables are past due, the customer's ability to pay its obligation to us, the condition of the general economy, estimates of credit risk, historical trends and other information. Accounts receivable are deemed to be past due when they have not been paid by their contractual due date. We write off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible against our allowance for doubtful accounts. At March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010, no allowance for doubtful accounts was deemed necessary.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market (net realizable value). At March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010 the Company had $41,684 and $120,317 respectively, of work in process inventory. At March 31, 2011 and September 30, 2010 the Company had $136,732 and $102,598 respectively, of raw materials inventory.

Machinery and Equipment

Machinery and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is 5 years for computer equipment and 3 years for software. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation expense for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $5,782 and $933, respectively.

Revenue and Cost Recognition

We currently generate revenue primarily from contract research and development services and may derive additional revenues in the future from the sale of our products to customers. Our products are specialty electric drive engines and related components. These products are a direct result of the services to design and build each unit, which are built to each customer’s specifications. We account for the products sold as one unit. We intend in the future to derive revenue from sales of products and will recognize the sale at the time title to the goods and the benefits and risks of ownership passes to the customer which is typically when products are shipped based on the terms of the customer purchase agreement.

Some customers are asked to provide deposits prior to the Company accepting their orders. Customer deposits are reflected on the balance sheet as a current liability and are reclassified to revenue at the time when title to the goods and the benefits and risks of ownership passes to the customer.

Revenue relating to long-term fixed price contracts is recognized using the percentage of completion method. Under the percentage of completion method, contract revenues and related costs are recognized based on the percentage that costs incurred to date bear to total estimated costs.

The Company recently entered into Small Business Innovation Research contracts with both the US Army and the US Navy, the revenue under these contracts will be recognized in the same period as allowable and billable costs are incurred. Revenue under these contracts is earned when the services have been completed and collection is reasonably assured.

Changes in job performance, estimated profitability and final contract settlements may result in revisions to cost and revenue, and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Contract costs include all direct materials, subcontract and labor costs. Selling, general and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. At the time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated loss is accrued.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Tax. Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. 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 valuation of deferred tax assets may be reduced if future realization is not assured.

The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Research and Development

Costs of researching and developing new technology, or significantly altering existing technology, are expensed as incurred.

Stock-Based Compensation

In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
 
Equity instruments (“instruments”) issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718. FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees defines the measurement date and recognition period for such instruments. In general, the measurement date is when either a (a) performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

Loss per Common Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing income or loss available to common stockholders by all outstanding and potentially dilutive shares during the periods presented, unless the effect is anti-dilutive. As of March 31, 2011 and 2010 there were 0 and 360,000 warrants outstanding to purchase the Company’s common stock, and as of March 31, 2011 and 2010 there were 2,400,000 options outstanding to purchase the Company’s common stock. The Company also has convertible promissory notes outstanding that can be converted, at the Company’s option, to 388,889 shares of common stock. These options, warrants and convertible shares have not been included in the weighted average number of shares as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
 
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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments including accounts payable, notes payable and convertible note approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for this instrument.

NOTE B – GOING CONCERN

As reflected in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $5,262,991, a net loss of $730,702 for the six months ending March 31, 2011 and negative cash flows from operations of $872,025 for the six months ending March 31, 2011. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to generate additional revenues from operations, raise additional funds and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional revenues and funding, and to implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise such funds if and when it wishes to do so or on terms acceptable to us. This raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Specifically, in the event that the Company is not successful at raising capital to a level sufficient to pay its expenditures, the Company will have to reduce administrative overhead and reduce marketing and public relations expenditures. If the Company is unable to cut expenses, earn profits or raise additional debt or equity capital the Company will have to discontinue operations.

Pursuant to the Promissory Note dated as of August 23, 2007 the Company accrues interest on the loan at the rate of 6% per annum. Quarterly payments are made based on a formula that multiplies the revenue of NuGen’s gross revenues by 2% for calendar year 2007, 3% for calendar year 2008, 4% for calendar year 2009, 5% for calendar year 2010 and 6% for calendar year 2011 and for all subsequent years until the loan is paid in full. In all years NuGen is required to pay a minimum of $7,500 per quarter and any payment made that exceeds the amount that would be due under the formula shall be treated as an advance against subsequent quarterly amounts due in excess of the $7,500 minimum payment.

As of March 31, 2011, no payments of principal have been made as NuGen’s quarterly revenues, multiplied by the appropriate percentage, have not exceeded the $7,500 minimum payment. The payments made have gone towards accrued interest only. Additionally, further revenue contingent payments may be owed, in the future (see Note E – Commitments and Contingencies – below).

In November 2007, the Company purchased computer equipment and issued a four year note payable, included in “Other” on the above table, in the amount of $9,326. The Company accrues interest on this loan at the rate of 18.45% per annum and makes monthly fixed payments of interest and principal.

In August 2010, the Company purchased computer equipment and issued a three year note payable, included in “Other” on the above table, in the amount of $12,910. The Company accrues interest on this loan at the rate of 0.38% per annum and makes monthly fixed payments of interest and principal.

Convertible promissory notes

On October 22, 2010, the Company entered into subscription agreements with two accredited investors pursuant to which the Company issued 3% convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $70,000 which is included on the Company’s Balance Sheet under convertible notes.

 The Notes were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Notes have a one-year term and are convertible by the Company into Common Stock at a price of $0.18 per share, subject to adjustment if the Company effects a stock split or issues a stock dividend. If the Company effects a merger, sale of all or substantially all of its assets or any person acquires 50% of its stock, then the Note will be convertible into such number and kind of shares as would have been issuable on account of such transaction. The Company may prepay all or a portion of the outstanding principal and interest under the Notes upon 3 business days’ notice and may repay any accrued interest in cash or additional shares of Common Stock. The amount due under the Notes will become immediately due and payable if the Company fails to pay unpaid principal on the maturity date which failure continues for 10 days, any representation or warranty made by the Company is false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading, or the Company dissolves, liquidates, ceases operations, is unable to pay its debts when due, a receiver or trustee is appointed or bankruptcy proceedings are instituted

NOTE D - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Related Parties

On December 5, 2010 and March 30, 2011, a foreign investor entered into a subscription agreement with the Company pursuant to which, among other things, the Company issued an aggregate of 412,500 shares and 312,500 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $0.16 per share, for total cash proceeds of $116,000. The proceeds were received by the Company in December 2010 and March 2011. Such issuances were made in reliance on an exemption from registration under Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act. Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements the investor executed and delivered to the Company (i) an irrevocable proxy appointing the Company’s Chief Executive Officer as her proxy to vote her shares and (ii) a lock-up agreement pursuant to which the investor agreed not to transfer, dispose of or encumber any of the Company’s securities for a nine-month period.

NOTE E - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In August 2007, our subsidiary, NuGen Mobility entered into an asset purchase agreement pursuant to which it acquired substantially all of the assets, and specified liabilities of New Generation Motors Corporation, a Delaware corporation. The agreement requires the payment to New Generation Motors of $1,000,000 pursuant to a promissory note, which bears simple interest at the rate of six percent. The principal amount of this note was reduced to $596,108 by the application of $403,892 in credits. These credits consist of (i) an aggregate of $273,741 in operational loans made by our principal shareholders to New Generation Motors to allow them to continue operations prior to August 2007, (ii) $101,804 in customer deposits that they retained though we were responsible for fulfilling such customer orders, and (iii) $29,068 in amounts we agreed to pay to New Generation Motors’s landlord for back rent.

The principal and interest on the loan is to be repaid, on a quarterly basis, until all amounts due thereon have been paid. The amount of each payment is equal to the greater of (i) $7,500 and (ii) the product obtained by multiplying our Gross Revenues (as defined) for the quarter by the applicable percentage rate. The applicable percentage rate increases by one percentage point per year beginning at 2% for 2007 increasing to 6% for 2011 and all subsequent years. The payment is first applied to the accrued interest on the loan and the remainder, if any, to the principal amount owed. As of the date hereof, an aggregate of $82,500 has been paid (11 quarterly payments of $7,500 per quarter) and all of the payments have been applied to accrued interest. Accordingly, the principal balance of the loan has been $596,108 since August 2007.

In addition, if prior to July 13, 2014 we have paid this note in full, we are also required to pay until July 13, 2014, on a quarterly basis, the product obtained by multiplying 2.5% by the Gross Revenues in the applicable quarter. Gross Revenues is defined as (i) all fees and other revenue that NuGen Mobility receives from any source, (ii) the then-current fair market value of (x) the assets purchased from New Generation Motors, or (y) the business (as a going concern) or portion thereof sold or otherwise transferred to our affiliate, and (iii) the proceeds from the sale or other disposition by NuGen Mobility to any other third party of all or any portion of (x) the assets and/or (y) the business as a going concern. To date, we have not been required to make any such payments.

In connection with this transaction, NuGen also agreed to assume the commitment, entered into by New Generation Motors, for a conditional grant of $700,000 from an Indian export bank, which will be paid back through a 2% royalty on the license agreement until $1,400,000 is paid back. Additionally, the Indian export bank also provided a loan of $500,000 to New Generation Motors. In connection with this asset purchase agreement, NuGen Mobility assumed this $500,000 loan on the condition that the loan would be converted to a conditional grant (similar to the $700,000 conditional grant) and has agreed to make payments to New Generation Motors based on the conditional grant terms in the asset purchase Agreement. New Generation Motors reached such agreement with the Indian export bank but New Generation Motors and such bank never ratified such agreement. As such the Company did not assume the loan and the loan agreement remains between the Indian export bank and New Generation Motors. As of March 31, 2011 no payments are owed to New Generation Motors, as the Indian manufacturer is not actively marketing the product at present and no payments are required until sales from this product are generated.

As part of the asset purchase agreement in August 2007, NuGen also agreed to assume the commitment, entered into by New Generation Motors, for a conditional grant of $700,000 from an Indian export bank, which is only required to be paid back once the Indian manufacturer begins paying licensing fees. NuGen does not have a written assignment from the Indian export bank regarding its assumption of this commitment. NuGen will then be obligated to pay the Indian export bank a royalty received from the Indian manufacturer until $1,400,000 is repaid based on a schedule in the agreement. Since the dates provided for in the schedule to the agreement have passed, the agreement provides that if the actual sales deviate substantially, the royalty schedule will have to be changed. To date, the parties have not updated the schedule of royalty payments. Additionally, the Indian export bank also provided a loan of $500,000 to New Generation Motors. In connection with this asset purchase agreement, NuGen assumed this $500,000 loan on the condition that the loan would be converted to a conditional grant (similar to the $700,000 conditional grant). In 2006, both New Generation Motors and the Indian export bank agreed to convert this second $500,000 loan to a conditional grant under the same terms and conditions as the previous agreement. However the Agreement was never signed and NuGen has treated the amount as a conditional grant due to New Generation Motors in accordance with the terms of the asset purchase agreement. Currently, no demand has been made to NuGen for payment; accordingly, it is not reflected as a liability on the Company’s balance sheet but rather it is included under “Commitments and Contingencies”. As of March 31, 2011 no payments are owed to the Indian export bank, as the Indian manufacturer is not actively marketing the product at present and no payments are required until sales from this product are generated.
 
Lease Commitments

On October 7, 2010, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, NuGen Mobility Inc. entered into a three year lease for a combined office / warehouse space in the same building complex as the Company’s current space. The rent, which commenced effective December 1, 2010, is approximately $5,595 per month and increases by 3% on each anniversary date of the lease. We also entered into a one-year lease commencing October 1, 2010 for our current space of approximately 6,500 square feet, for a monthly rental of $4,860. Rental expense for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $62,555 and $39,650 respectively.

Employment Agreements

During the quarter ending March 31, 2010, we entered into employment agreements with our Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), our Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and our Vice President of Engineering and Programs (VP Engineering). The agreements, for the CEO, VP Engineering and CFO, provide for annual salaries, of $180,000, $160,000 and $120,000 respectively; signing bonuses of $30,000, $20,000 and $10,000 respectively; and, grants of options to purchase 900,000, 400,000 and 150,000 shares of our common stock, respectively. The shares subject to the options for the CEO and CFO have an exercise price of $0.45 per share and vest pro ratably in 24 equal monthly installments as of the last day of each month commencing February 28, 2010. The shares subject to the options for the VP Engineering are at an exercise price of $0.15 per share and vest pro ratably in 24 equal monthly installments as of the last day of each month commencing February 28, 2010, which option may be exercised on a cashless basis and may be exercised until February 29, 2012. Generally, options to acquire 100,000 shares may be exercised on a cumulative basis during the two weeks preceding August 31, 2010, February 28, 2011, August 31, 2011, and February 29, 2012 subject to accelerated exercise upon a change in control as provided therein and the right to exercise his remaining option in the event of the termination of his employment.

On December 5, 2010 and March 30, 2011, the Company entered into subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with an “accredited investor” pursuant to which the Company issued an aggregate of 412,500 shares and 312,500 shares, respectively, of common stock at a purchase price of $0.16 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $66,000 and $50,000 respectively. Such issuances were made in reliance on an exemption from registration under Regulation D and/or S promulgated under the Securities Act. The investor also executed and delivered to the Company (i) an irrevocable proxy appointing the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, as her proxy to vote her shares, and (ii) a lock-up agreement pursuant to which the investor agreed not to transfer, dispose of or encumber any of the Company’s securities for a nine-month period.

On October 22, 2010, the Company entered into subscription agreements with two accredited investors pursuant to which the Company issued 3% convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $70,000. The Notes were offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The Notes have a one-year term and are convertible by the Company into Common Stock at a price of $0.18 per share, subject to adjustment if the Company effects a stock split or issues a stock dividend. If the Company effects a merger, sale of all or substantially all of its assets or any person acquires 50% of its stock, then the Note will be convertible into such number and kind of shares as would have been issuable on account of such transaction. The Company may prepay all or a portion of the outstanding principal and interest under the Notes upon 3 business days’ notice and may repay any accrued interest in cash or additional shares of Common Stock. The amount due under the Notes will become immediately due and payable if the Company fails to pay unpaid principal on the maturity date which failure continues for 10 days, any representation or warranty made by the Company is false, incorrect, incomplete or misleading, or the Company dissolves, liquidates, ceases operations, is unable to pay its debts when due, a receiver or trustee is appointed or bankruptcy proceeding are instituted.

Preferred Stock

The Company entered into an agreement with a representative of eleven accredited investors confirming that such investors have the right, but not the obligation, to purchase, in the aggregate, a minimum of $500,000 and a maximum of $700,000 of our Class A Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) at a price of $0.15 per share. On March 8, 2011, we entered into an option agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with such investors which replaced and superseded the prior agreement. The Option Agreement provides that the option to purchase the preferred stock terminates upon the earlier of (i) December 31, 2011, (ii) 180 days after the effective date of the Amended Registration Statement or (iii) if the Company demands that the investors exercise their option in the event that the Company enters into an agreement with respect to at least $2,500,000 at no less than $0.30 per share and the investors do not so exercise their right of first refusal to purchase such shares. We had also issued the representative of such investors one-year warrants to acquire 360,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share; said person fully exercised his warrant on March 1, 2011. If the investors exercise their option to purchase the preferred stock, they will be entitled to convert said preferred stock at their option at any time into one share of common stock, subject to adjustment for issuances of securities to third parties at a price less than $0.15 per share on a “full-ratchet basis” (i.e., so that we shall issue, free of charge to each holder of such preferred stock, such additional shares of Preferred Stock so that the total number of shares held by the such holder equals that number that would have been issued at the lower price) during the 6 months following issuance and on a "weighted average" basis for 42 months following said 6-month period. The  “weighted average” anti-dilution protection uses a formula that adjusts the rate at which preferred stock converts into common stock based upon (i) the amount of money previously raised by the Company and the price per share at which it was raised and (ii) the amount of money being raised by the Company in the subsequent dilutive financing and the price per share at which such new money is being raised. This weighted average price (which will always be lower than the original purchase price following a dilutive financing) is then divided into the original purchase price in order to determine the number of shares of common stock into which each share of preferred stock is then convertible, which will be greater than one. Thus, a new reduced conversion price for the preferred stock is obtained, which results in an increased conversion rate for the preferred stock when converting to common stock. So long as the investors hold at least 5% of our outstanding capital stock in the aggregate, the holders of the preferred stock will also have pre-emptive rights, subject to certain exemptions for issuances under option plans or to strategic investors under certain circumstances. The holders of the preferred stock will also have the right to designate one person to serve as a member of our board of directors until the effectiveness of this prospectus. If we would ever grant certain rights to shareholders holding a prescribed percentage of our stock, the holders of the preferred shares would have the right to cumulate their shareholdings to determine if they are entitled to such rights. For example, if we would ever provide that more than 70% of the holders of our shares could require us to file a registration statement on their behalf, the holders of the preferred shares could aggregate their holdings to be part of that group. The investors will also be entitled to warrants to purchase the amount of shares of common stock equal to 10% of the total value of the investment in the preferred stock. The exercise price of the common share to be provided for in the warrant, which expires 12 months after it is issued, is $0.001 per share. We have not yet filed a certificate of designation designating this Preferred Stock.

If and when the preferred shares are purchased, each investor will also have the right for 18 months to purchase shares of common stock from the Company’s CEO for an exercise price of $0.50 per share.

Valuation of Stock-Based Awards, Common Stock and Warrants

Stock-Based Compensation

We adopted the fair value method of accounting for our stock options granted to employees which requires us to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for the stock options, based on the grant date fair value of the award. The fair value of the awards is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The resulting cost is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period which is generally two years.

We amortize the fair value of our stock-based compensation for equity awards granted on a straight-line basis, which we believe better reflects the level of service to be provided by our employees over the vesting period of the awards.

The fair value of each new employee option awarded was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions.

The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires inputs such as the risk-free interest rate, expected term and expected volatility. Further, the forfeiture rate also affects the amount of aggregate compensation. These inputs are subjective and generally require significant judgment.

The risk-free interest rate that we use is based on the United States Treasury yield in effect at the time of grant for zero coupon United States Treasury notes with maturities approximating each grant’s expected life. Given our limited history with employee grants, we use the “simplified” method in estimating the expected term for our employee grants. The “simplified” method, as permitted by the SEC, is calculated as the average of the time-to-vesting and the contractual life of the options.

Our expected volatility is derived from the historical volatilities of several unrelated public companies within industries related to our business, including the automotive OEM and battery technology industries, because we have no trading history on our common stock. When making the selections of our peer companies within industries related to our business to be used in the volatility calculation, we also considered the stage of development, size and financial leverage of potential comparable companies. Our historical volatility is weighted based on certain qualitative factors and combined to produce a single volatility factor. We have not estimated our forfeiture rate as these are the first options granted by us after our merger in January 2010.

We account for stock options issued to nonemployees also based on their estimated fair value determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. However, the fair value of the equity awards granted to nonemployees is re-measured as the awards vest, and the resulting increase in value, if any, is recognized as expense during the period the related services are rendered.

Stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $19,910 and $6,089, respectively.

Common Stock Valuation

We granted stock options with exercise prices equal or greater than the fair value of our common stock as determined at the date of grant by our Board of Directors. Because there has been no public market for our common stock, our Board of Directors has determined the fair value of our common stock by considering a number of objective and subjective factors, including the following:

• arm’s length, third-party sales of our stock;

• our operating and financial performance; and
 
• the lack of liquidity of our capital stock.

Equity Awards

On February 9, 2010, pursuant to the 2010 Stock Option Plan, the Company granted options to acquire an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to several executive officers and employees. Subject to vesting, these options are exercisable during the ten years from the grant date at an exercise price of $0.45 per share. The options vest pro rata in 24 equal monthly installments as of the last day of each fiscal month, with the first installment vesting as of January 1, 2010. All of the options vest immediately upon a Change of Control Event. These options terminate immediately following the termination of such person’s employment with the Company for “Cause” (as defined in such employee’s employment agreement described above and other than Cause relating to the employee’s material uncured breach of his employment agreement in which case the options terminate in accordance with their stated term) and 180 days after such person voluntarily terminates his employment other than for “Good Reason” (as defined in such person’s employment agreement).

On February 11, 2010, the Company granted an option to acquire an aggregate of 400,000 shares of its common stock to an executive officer of the Company at an exercise price of $0.15 per share, which option may be exercised on a cashless basis and may be exercised until February 29, 2012. Generally, options to acquire 100,000 shares may be exercised on a cumulative basis during the two weeks preceding August 31, 2010, February 28, 2011, August 31, 2011, and February 29, 2012, subject to accelerated exercise upon a change in control and the right to exercise the remaining option in the event of the termination of employment.

NOTE G – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Series B Preferred Stock - Private Offerings

In April 2011, the Company entered into subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with six investors (each of which are “accredited investors” as that term is defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) pursuant to which, among other things, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,072,222 Series B convertible preferred shares, par value $0.001 per share (“Series B Preferred Stock”), at a purchase price of $0.18 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $193,000. The Series B Preferred Stock was offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration afforded by Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.
 
Each investor also received two-year warrants to purchase common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company equal to 20% of the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock purchased by such investor.
 
The Company filed a Certificate of Designations, Preference and Rights of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Certificate of Designation) in Delaware.

Recent Developments

We currently generate revenue primarily from contract research and development services and may derive additional revenues in the future from the sale or license of our technology to customers. Our technology is related to specialty electric drive engines and related components. This technology is currently being sold directly to OEMs pursuant to technical assistance agreements. The agreements generally provide for us to engineer our products to run in various platforms (e.g. vehicles, electric generators and motors). Our technology is used primarily to convert electrical power into mechanical power so that mechanical power can be used to propel a vehicle or run a generator. As our technology can be adapted for a particular application, our services utilizing our technology is customarily included in an engineering service component. Accordingly, the Company reflects its revenue in one line on its financial statements.

In the six months ended March 31, 2011, $705,265 of our revenues were sales to Hefei New Generation Electro-Motor System Co. Ltd. (“Hefei”). $411,106 of that amount was for the sale of a machine and related components to Hefei, an additional $294,159 were billed for engineering services. Hefei may be a supplier of one of our electric motor systems to fulfill a potential order from Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. (“Mahindra”).

Our technical support agreement with BSA Motors of India, a subsidiary of the Murugappa Group (“BSA Motors”) expired in September 2010 and the contract work under the agreement was completed. We are in discussions with BSA Motors regarding entering into a new commercial contract for the next stage of work required. While we hope to enter into such an agreement with BSA Motors, there can be no assurances that we will be able to do so or that the terms of such agreement would be favorable or that BSA Motors would decide to continue to do business with our company.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Quarters ending March 31, 2011 and 2010

Revenues. Our sales increased by $247,585 to $308,712 for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $61,127 for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010. For the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2011 the Company had $151,680 in sales to Hefei, $74,819 in sales to Mahindra, pursuant to our Technical Assistance Agreements with Mahindra, $46,677 in sales pursuant to our contract with the Department of Defense (Army SBIR) and $35,536 in solar car race participant sales, versus sales for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010 of $59,992 in sales to BSA Motors which were primarily for engineering services and $1,135 in solar car race participant sales. In the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2011, the Company provided various engineering services to Hefei for use in their facility in the Anhui province of China, we billed them $151,680 for engineering services to assist them in setting up their production facility.

Gross Profit (loss). Our gross profit was $56,428 for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2011 versus a gross loss of $82,850 for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010. The Company had increased direct labor expenses and direct costs in the quarter ending March 31, 2011 due to its providing engineering services to Hefei. The increase in gross profit is due in part to the nature of the revenues in the six months, i.e. the Army SBIR project as well as the engineering services to Hefei have lower direct costs.

Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses decreased by $39,115 for the fiscal quarter March 31, 2011 from $395,248 for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010. Operating expenses consist primarily of compensation, rent and office, professional fees and travel expenses.

Other Expenses. These expenses consist of interest expense which for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 decreased by $5,370 from $15,131 in 2010 primarily due to the conversion of a large portion of our debt to equity in January 2010.

Comparison of six months ending March 31, 2011 and 2010

Revenues. Our sales increased by $787,926 to $999,194 for the six months ended March 31, 2011 from $211,268 for the six months ended March 31, 2010. For the six months ended March 31, 2011 the Company had $705,265 in sales to Hefei, $74,820 in sales to Mahindra, pursuant to our Technical Assistance Agreement with Mahindra, $103,720 in sales pursuant to our contract with the Department of Defense (Army SBIR), $79,853 in sales to the Department of Defense (Navy SBIR) and $35,536 in solar car race participant sales, versus sales for the six months ended March 31, 2010 of $111,081 in sales to Mahindra, $99,052 in sales to BSA Motors which were primarily for engineering services and $1,135 in solar car race participant sales. In the six months ending March 31, 2011, the Company provided various engineering services and delivered a machine and various components to Hefei for use in their facility in the Anhui province of China. The machine and related components delivered accounted for $411,106 of the revenues for the fiscal quarter, and we billed them $294,159 for engineering services to assist them in setting up their production facility.

Gross Profit (loss). Our gross profit was $37,981 for the six months ended March 31, 2011 versus a gross loss of $100,957 for the six months ended March 31, 2010. The increase in gross profit is due in part to the nature of the revenues in the six months, i.e. the Army SBIR project as well as the engineering services to Hefei have lower direct costs. The Company had increased direct labor expenses in the six months ending March 31, 2011 due to its providing engineering services to Hefei.

Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses increased by $252,756 for the six months ended March 31, 2011 from $495,429 for the six months ended March 31, 2010. Operating expenses consist primarily of compensation, rent and office, professional fees and travel expenses. The increase consisted primarily of increases in our compensation expense due primarily to the increase in January 2010 in the number of executive officers receiving compensation (four). Professional fees and travel expenses for the six months were increased due to the increased cost of being a publicly reporting company as well as additional travel expense associated with the increased number of executive officers in 2011.

Other Expenses. These expenses consist of interest expense which for the six months ended March 31, 2011 decreased by $21,181 from $41,858 in 2010 primarily due to the conversion of a large portion of our debt to equity in January 2010.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our principal source of funds has been equity provided by our stockholders, various borrowings (including borrowings from a principal stockholder) and sales to our customers. Our principal use of funds has been for operating expenses and direct labor costs. We estimate that we have sufficient funds to continue operations until approximately August 2011 (without giving effect to exercise of options to acquire our Class A Preferred Stock which if exercised, as to which no assurance can be given, would raise between $500,000 to $700,000) and we will require additional funds to continue operations thereafter. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise such funds if and when we wish to do so or on terms acceptable to us. This raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Specifically, in the event that we are not successful at raising capital to a level sufficient to pay our expenditures, we are prepared to reduced our administrative overhead and reduce our marketing and public relations expenditures. If we are unable to cut expenses to earn profits or raise additional debt or equity capital we will have to discontinue operations. The doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern was reflected in the opinion of our auditors expressed with respect to our financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 which opinion was qualified on a “going concern basis”. The auditors noted that in light of our negative cash flow from operations, our working capital deficiency and stockholders’ deficiency, there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management currently intends to attempt to raise additional capital through public or private offerings, the conversion of its preferred stock option, the acquisition of a company; or merger with or into another company.

Our working capital was $100,725, at March 31, 2011 compared to a working capital of $708,475 at September 30, 2010. Net cash used in operating activities was $872,025 and $327,335 for the six months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Cash flows from financing activities provided, in the six months ended March 31, 2011, was $182,763 and was primarily due to the net proceeds from the sale of the Company’s equity securities as well as the sale of convertible notes. In the six months ended March 31, 2010, cash flows from financing activities provided $1,438,077 which was primarily from the proceeds of a the private placement of common stock. At March 31, 2011, we had $157,937 cash on hand.

In connection with the Company’s private offering of its common stock, on January 29, 2010 and February 16, 2010, the Company issued an aggregate of 6,266,669 and 3,599,999, respectively, shares of Common Stock in the Private Placement at a purchase price of $0.15 per share for total cash proceeds of $1,480,000 and paid offering costs of $85,757. In addition the Company has issued 1,000,000 shares to its placement agent in connection with the offering. The Company also issued warrants valued at $53,640, as a finder’s fee, exercisable until March 16, 2011, at an exercise price of $0.001 per share, to acquire an aggregate of 360,000 shares of common stock which warrants were exercised on March 1, 2011. Also, in connection with the Merger, holders of an aggregate of $915,475 of outstanding indebtedness of NuGen converted their promissory notes (based on a $0.15 per share conversion price) into an aggregate of 6,103,166 shares of Common Stock (“Debt Conversion”). This number includes the 466,667 shares which were converted by an individual holding $70,000 of indebtedness not represented by a note.

On September 29, 2010, December 5, 2010 and March 30, 2011, we entered into subscription agreements with foreign accredited investors pursuant to which, among other things, we issued an aggregate of 5,500,000 shares, 412,500 and 312,500 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a purchase price of $0.16 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $880,000, $66,000 and $50,000, respectively. In connection with the subscription agreements, each investor executed and delivered (i) an irrevocable proxy appointing, Eric Takamura, our Chief Executive Officer, as proxy to vote his shares, and (ii) a lock-up agreement pursuant to which each investor agreed not to transfer, dispose of or encumber any of our securities for a nine-month period. On October 22, 2010 we entered into subscription agreements with two investors pursuant to which we issued 3% convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $70,000. The notes have a one-year term and are convertible by us into common stock at $0.18 per share. We may prepay all or apportion of the outstanding principal and interest under the notes and may repay any accrued interest in cash or additional shares of our common stock.

On April 12, 2011 and April 13, 2011, we entered into subscription agreements with three accredited investors pursuant to which, among other things, we issued an aggregate of 516,667 Series B convertible preferred shares, par value $0.001 per share (“Series B Preferred Stock”), at a purchase price of $0.18 per share, for aggregate gross proceeds of $50,000 and $43,000, respectively. Each investor also received two-year warrants to purchase common stock in an amount equal to 20% of the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock purchased by such investor.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company had a total of $683,747 of debt outstanding. The primary components of this total are $596,108 owed to New Generation Motors and $70,000 owed to holders of the Company’s convertible promissory notes. The Company also has the potential to exercise options to acquire our Class A Preferred Stock which could raise between $500,000-$700,000. The Company is not currently in default with respect to any material financing arrangement.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified the accounting policies outlined below as critical to our business operations and an understanding of our results of operations. The list is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, with no need for management's judgment in their application.

Revenue and Cost Recognition - We currently generate revenue primarily from contract research and development services and may derive additional revenues in the future from the sale of our products to customers. Our products are specialty electric drive engines and related components. These products are a direct result of the services to design and build each unit, which each are built to each customer’s specifications. We account for the products sold as one unit. We intend in the future to derive revenue from sales of products and will recognize the sale at the time title to the goods and the benefits and risks of ownership passes to the customer which is typically when products are shipped based on the terms of the customer purchase agreement.

Some customers are asked to provide deposits prior to the Company accepting their orders. Customer Deposits are reflected on the balance sheet as a current liability and are reclassified to revenue at the time when title to the goods and the benefits and risks of ownership passes to the customer.

Revenue relating to long-term fixed price contracts is recognized using the percentage of completion method. Under the percentage of completion method, contract revenues and related costs are recognized based on the percentage that costs incurred to date bear to total estimated costs.

Revenue under the Company’s SBIR contracts with both the US Army and the US Navy will be recognized in the same period as allowable and billable costs are incurred.

Changes in job performance, estimated profitability and final contract settlements may result in revisions to cost and revenue, and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.

Contract costs include all direct materials, subcontract and labor costs and other indirect costs. Selling, general and administrative costs are charged to expense as incurred. At the time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated loss is accrued.

In accordance with ASC 360, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets", the Company reviews the carrying value of intangibles and other long-lived assets for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by comparison of its carrying amount to the undiscounted cash flows that the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the property, if any, exceeds its fair market value.

At inception, the Company implemented ASC 718, “Share-Based Payment” which requires the fair value of all stock-based employee compensation awarded to employees to be recorded as an expense over the related requisite service period. The statement also requires the recognition of compensation expense for the fair value of any unvested stock option awards outstanding at the date of adoption. The Company values any employee or non-employee stock based compensation at fair value using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.
 
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

In August 2007, our subsidiary, NuGen Mobility entered into an asset purchase agreement pursuant to which it acquired substantially all of the assets, and specified liabilities of New Generation Motors Corporation, a Delaware corporation. The agreement requires the payment to New Generation Motors of $1,000,000 pursuant to a promissory note, which bears simple interest at the rate of six percent. The principal amount of this note was reduced to $596,108 by the application of $403,892 in credits. These credits consist of:
 
 
(i)
an aggregate of $273,741 in operational loans made by our principal shareholders to New Generation Motors to allow them to continue operations prior to August 2007,
 
(ii)
$101,083 in customer deposits that they retained though we were responsible for fulfilling such customer orders, and
 
(iii)
$29,068 in amounts we agreed to pay to New Generation Motors’s landlord for back rent.

The principal and interest on the loan is to be repaid, on a quarterly basis, until all amounts due thereon have been paid. The amount of each payment is equal to the greater of:

 
(i)
$7,500, and
 
 
8

 
 
 
(ii)
the product obtained by multiplying our Gross Revenues (as defined) for the quarter by the applicable percentage rate.

The applicable percentage rate increases by one percentage point per year beginning at 2% for 2007 increasing to 6% for 2011 and all subsequent years. The payment is first applied to the accrued interest on the loan and the remainder, if any, to the principal amount owed. As of the date hereof, an aggregate of $90,000 has been paid (twelve quarterly payments of $7,500 per quarter) and all of the payments have been applied to accrued interest. Accordingly, the principal balance of the loan has been $596,108 since August 2007 and we are current in our payment obligations to New Generation Motors.

In addition, if prior to July 13, 2014 we have paid this note in full, we are also required to pay until July 13, 2014, on a quarterly basis, the product obtained by multiplying 2.5% by the Gross Revenues in the applicable quarter. Gross Revenues is defined as

(i) all fees and other revenue that NuGen Mobility receives from any source,
(ii) the then-current fair market value of (x)the assets purchased from New Generation Motors, or (y)the business (as a going concern) or portion thereof sold or otherwise transferred to our affiliate, and
(iii)the proceeds from the sale or other disposition by NuGen Mobility to any other third party of all or any portion of (x) the assets and/or (y) the business as a going concern. To date, we have not been required to make any such payments.

Although the purchased assets included a license agreement between New Generation Motors and Bajaj Auto Ltd., an Indian based manufacturer of two and three-wheel vehicles, pursuant to which Bajaj Auto licensed our technology which is embedded in Bajaj Auto’s three-wheel Auto-Rickshaw, do not have a consent from Bajaj Auto to the assignment of this agreement with New Generation Motors to us nor do we have any other agreement with Bajaj.

As part of this asset purchase agreement, we agreed to assume New Generation Motor’s commitment to reimburse a conditional grant of $700,000 that it had received from ICICI. We do not have a written assignment from ICICI regarding the assumption of this commitment. This conditional grant is only required to be paid back once Bajaj begins paying licensing fees on the technology mentioned above. If we had been assigned this agreement we would then be obligated to pay ICICI a royalty on the licensing fees received from Bajaj agreement until $1,400,000 is repaid based upon a schedule in the agreement. Since the dates provided for in the schedule to the agreement have passed, the agreement provides that if the actual sales deviate substantially, the royalty schedule will have to be changed. ICICI also provided a loan of $500,000 to New Generation Motors. In connection with this asset purchase agreement, NuGen Mobility assumed the repayment of this $500,000 loan on the condition that the loan would be converted to a conditional grant (similar to the conditional grant executed by New Generation Motors and ICICI in 2001). In 2006, both New Generation Motors and ICICI agreed to convert this second $500,000 loan to a conditional grant under the same terms and conditions as the previous 2001 agreement. However, we currently do not have a signed document indicating such agreement and there can be no assurances that our discussions will result in such conditional grant agreement. Therefore, under the terms of the asset purchase agreement, we are obligated to make payments to New Generation Motors on a conditional grant basis in accordance with the asset purchase agreement. Currently, no demand has been made to NuGen Mobility for payment; accordingly, we do not reflect this as a liability on our balance sheet but rather we include it under “Commitments and Contingencies” in our financial statement footnotes.

As of March 31, 2011, no payments are owed to New Generation Motors, as Bajaj is not actively marketing its product at present.

Accounting Treatment

The Merger is being accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization. NuGen is the acquirer for accounting purposes and NuGen Holdings, formerly InovaChem, is the acquiree. Accordingly, NuGen’s historical financial statements for periods prior to the acquisition become those of the acquirer retroactively restated for the equivalent number of shares received in the Merger. The accumulated deficit of NuGen is carried forward after the acquisition. Operations prior to the Merger are those of NuGen. Earnings per share for the period prior to the Merger are restated to reflect the equivalent number of shares outstanding.
