PART I
 

Item 1.           Business.
 
(a)           Business Development - Thermodynetics, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in Delaware in 1981 and reincorporated by merger in Nevada in 2008.

The Company is engaged in managing its real estate and business holdings, and investing in other companies.  The Company competes with other companies which have been established for a longer period of time, are larger, and possess substantially greater financial resources and substantially larger staffs.  No assurances can be given that the Company will be able to successfully compete with such firms.  The Company owns two commercial buildings which it leases to two commercial/industrial tenants; the leases expired on September 30th, 2010 and March 31st, 2011.  One tenant extended its lease through December 31st, 2011; see Item 3.  The loss and projected loss of its tenants is having and is expected to have a material adverse effect upon the Company.  The Company's bank initiated legal proceedings on June 28th, 2011 against the Company seeking recovery through foreclosure of each of the two commercial buildings; negative outcomes in either of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect upon the Company; see Item 3.  The Company listed its two commercial buildings for sale, and the buildings are actively being marketed.

Prior to the May 2006 London initial public offering ("IPO") described below, the Company was principally engaged in the manufacture of spirally fluted metal tubes used for a variety of heat transfer applications through its then subsidiary, Turbotec Products, Inc. ("Turbotec").  After the IPO, Turbotec and its new parent, Turbotec Products Plc (the “PLC"), operated independently of the Company as a requirement of the UK underwriter and as a result of the April 28, 2006 Relationship Agreement (“RA”).  The RA became the subject of unsuccessful litigation between the Company and the PLC described in Item 3 herein (the "London judgment").  As of April 12, 2011 an aggregate of 12,806,773 ordinary shares of the PLC were issued and outstanding.  At July 1, 2011, the Company owned 2,712,407 shares of the PLC, constituting approximately 21.18% of the PLC.

As a result of the London judgment, the Company currently has no revenue producing consulting arrangements; such result has had a material adverse affect upon the Company.  The Company has a significant tax loss carryforward, which tax loss carryforward is believed to be of significant value.  The Company is seeking a merger partner to utilize the tax loss carryforward.

The Company maintains its registered U.S. trademark "THERMODYNETICS®" and believes such mark to be valuable.

Subsidiaries.

           TPI Systems, Inc. ("TPI") and National Energy Systems, Inc. ("NES"), 100% owned subsidiaries, have been dormant with little or no activity for many years.  In 2003, the Company acquired Vulcan Industries, Inc. ("Vulcan") as an operating subsidiary; its operations were closed and the assets were liquidated by its secured lender in 2005.

TPI was reincorporated in Delaware in May 2011 with the intention of a dividend spin-off by the Company to its shareholders of record as of July 15, 2011; such dividend spin-off is anticipated to be completed at the end of July 2011.  The Board of Directors of Thermodynetics on June 29, 2011 approved the spin-off and distribution of a dividend to its shareholders of record on July 15, 2011 in a spin-off transaction.  Those shareholders who are owners of at least 1,000 shares of Thermodynetics common stock will receive shares of TPI on a one-for-one (1:1) pro rata basis at the record date.  All other Thermodynetics shareholders will receive a distribution of $0.0002/share for each of the shares, pro rata, they owned of Thermodynetics as of the record date.  There is no effect on any holdings in Thermodynetics.  The spin-off will occur through a dividend in stock of TPI which will equal at least 80% and no more than 85% of the now outstanding shares of TPI, and Thermodynetics is retaining the remaining shares.  TPI has nominal assets and therefore the shares have nominal value and have been valued by the Thermodynetics Board of Directors at $0.0002 per share.

The Company does not have majority control over any manufacturing concern, and as such, it has no foreign operations, no inventory, does not export products or services, its present business is not seasonal in nature nor does the Company offer or produce any products.  The Company does not have any patents.  The Company's business does not and is not expected to involve contracts or subcontracts with the United States government.  The Company is not conducting any research and development.  During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, there was no material effect on the business of the Company with respect to its requirements to comply with environmental laws.

At July 1, 2011, the Company had 2 salaried employees and no employees compensated on an hourly basis.

Working Capital Items - At March 31, 2011, the Company had a negative working capital position of $1,252,400.  See Item 7 herein.

At March 31, 2011, the Company's material credit facilities consisted of:  the Company’s bank has provided a revolving line of credit dated December 21st, 2006 with a maximum credit limit of $1,100,000; this revolving line of credit provides for borrowings on a demand basis with interest payable at the bank’s prime rate.  At March 31, 2011 the principal balance due under this line of credit was $877,000 which matured on July 31, 2009.  The bank initiated legal proceedings on June 28th, 2010; see Item 3.  The credit facility is secured by the Company’s Day Hill Road facility.

Item 1A.         Risk Factors.
 
Not required for smaller reporting companies.

Item 1B.         Unresolved Staff Comments.
 
None.

Item 2.            Properties.
 
Facilities:

The Company's executive offices are located at its approximately 55,000 square foot one story building (of which 40,000 sq. ft. was constructed in 1981 and a 15,000 sq. ft. addition was constructed in 2000) on a six acre site located at 651 Day Hill Road, Windsor, Connecticut.  The Day Hill facility is a steel frame structure with polystyrene and stucco outer walls, has parking for approximately 115 cars and contains approximately 45,000 square feet of factory space and approximately 10,000 square feet of office space.  The Day Hill facility is owned by the Company in fee simple and is subject to a $900,000 mortgage term note for the Day Hill Road facility, payable in 120 equal monthly installments of $3,750 plus interest through December 2016 with the balance due at that time. At March 31, 2011 the interest rate in effect was 7.5% and the unpaid balance was $689,900.  See Notes 10 and 11 of Notes to Financial Statements.  The bank initiated legal proceedings on June 28th, 2010; see Item 3.

The Company owns in fee simple a light manufacturing multi-purpose facility on approximately 3.5 acres located at 50 Baker Hollow Road, Windsor, Connecticut, contiguous to the Day Hill site.  The Baker Hollow facility was constructed in 1991 and is comprised of a steel frame structure with concrete block outer walls, has parking for approximately 95 cars and contains approximately 28,500 square feet of factory space.  The Company's Baker Hollow facility is subject to a $1,000,000 ten year mortgage from its bank which is due August 2011 with an interest rate of 6.9%.  At March 31, 2011 the Company owed $712,500 under such mortgage.  The bank initiated legal proceedings on June 28th, 2010; see Item 3.

Leases:
 
        The Company's two five-year real estate leases for 651 Day Hill Road, Windsor, CT, and 50 Baker Hollow Road, Windsor, CT terminated on March 31st, 2011, and its second lease at 50 Baker Hollow Road terminated September 30th, 2010.  However, the Company, as lessor, and Turbotec, as the lessee, entered into a nine (9) month lease for fifty-two thousand five hundred (52,500) square feet at the Day Hill facility ending December 31st, 2011; rent charges are equal five dollars per square foot; monthly fixed rent equals $21,875.  In addition to fixed rent, the tenant is paying common area maintenance charges, plus utilities and real estate taxes.  The Company has reserved from the Turbotec 651 Day Hill lease, and continues to use, its existing executive office space in the Day Hill facility.  The Baker Hollow leases expired on September 30th, 2010 and March 31st, 2011, and that rental income aggregated $34,750 for the year ended March 31, 2011.  There are currently no tenants in the Baker Hollow facility.

The Company built the Day Hill facility and the Baker Hollow facility for the operating needs of its then subsidiary, Turbotec, not for investment purposes.  Turbotec is in process of relocating its operations to North Carolina; this leaves the Company without its significant and primary tenant which has had a material adverse effect on the Company’s revenues and liabilities.  The Company is actively seeking a purchaser or tenants for the Day Hill facility.  Currently the Baker Hollow facility is also listed for sale with a commercial broker.

Vehicles

The Company has an $83,464 term loan dated December 1, 2006, which is payable in 60 monthly installments of $1,628 including principal and interest at 6.39%.  The unpaid balance at March 31, 2011 was $12,725.  The note is secured by a vehicle.  The Company had a second term loan in the amount of $34,557 dated May 6, 2008 which was paid in full on May 4, 2011.

Item 3.            Legal Proceedings.
 
There are no material legal proceedings known or threatened against the Company, except:

(a)           The lawsuit instituted by the Company on January 8, 2008 in England against Turbotec Products Plc was concluded in February, 2010.  A judgment in favor of the Company on one count and against it on two counts was rendered on May 10th, 2010.  The net effect of the London judgment held that the Company was required to reimburse the PLC for 85% of the PLC’s legal expenses which the PLC has claimed approximate £795,000; the Company is contesting such amount.  On May 24th, 2010 in accordance with the judgment, the Company paid £350,000 to the PLC on account of their costs.  The Company could ultimately be responsible for up to an additional £325,000 of legal costs claimed by the PLC, although the Company believes the amount may be substantially less.

(b)           Turbotec Products, Inc. commenced a lawsuit against Thermodynetics on February 27th, 2008 in the Connecticut Superior Court, Judicial District of Hartford, alleging that Thermodynetics breached two commercial leases, and that Thermodynetics improperly withdrew funds from a sinking fund established under the leases, and for fraudulent inducement, fraudulent misrepresentation, and violation of the Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act.  The parties settled the lawsuit and on January 10th, 2011 mutual releases were exchanged between Thermodynetics and Turbotec, and the lawsuit was dismissed without any financial obligation owed to either party.  An outcome of the settlement was that Turbotec extended its leasehold interest in the Day Hill facility through December 31st, 2011.

(c)           The Company's bank initiated and served two separate lawsuits on June 28th, 2010 against the Company in the Connecticut Superior Court, Judicial District of Hartford, alleging defaults of a line of credit and certain mortgages and seeking recovery through foreclosure of the liens against the two commercial buildings.  Negative outcomes in either of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect upon the Company.  At March 31st, 2011, the Company was current on both primary mortgages and was current on its interest payments against the line of credit which had matured in 2009.  The default initially was against the line of credit which has not been repaid and the bank has claimed a cross-default against the mortgages.  The Company believes there is material equity in the buildings exceeding the value of all of the bank debt.  The current balance due under the line of credit and mortgages equals approximately $2.4 million; the Bank is claiming such balance plus costs and legal expenses of the proceeding.  In the event the bank is successful in its foreclosure proceedings and a qualified buyer for the properties is not secured, the loss to the Company could exceed the amounts due under the line of credit and mortgages.  However, in the event of a strict foreclosure, under Connecticut foreclosure law, a court would apply a fair market value to the properties and buildings based upon a then to be appraised value as of the date title vested in the bank; therefore, the likely risk of loss to the Company would be the loss of the land and buildings but not further financial deficiency claims.  Both properties are currently listed for sale with a commercial real estate broker, and management would also consider any long-term lease opportunities.

Item 7.            Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Results of Operations

2011 Compared to 2010

Income in both 2010 and 2011 resulted from rental income.  One tenant’s lease terminated in the 2010 and the other (Turbotec) continued through fiscal year end, March 2011.  For the period beginning April 2011, Tubotec vacated one building (which continues to be vacant) and signed a lease for a short term ending December 31, 2011 for the main facility.  Both buildings are being marketed for sale.
 
The Company is engaged in managing its real estate and business holdings, and investing in other companies.  In addition in June 2011 the Company acquired the rights to a software program that is to be marketed in the wagering industry.  The software is designed to assist individuals in selecting winning wagers in horse racing events.
 
The Company disposed of a portion of its holdings in Turbotec and now owns approximately 21% of that company.  Net proceeds of approximately $1.8 million were received and used to pay litigation costs and certain accounts payable.  In addition, the Company made a number of adjustments to its investment portfolio and both purchased and sold securities.  As a result of the sale of these securities, the Company has classified its holdings as marketable securities as the Company does not have any significant influence over the entity.  The 2010 treatment is shown as equity in earnings, while the 2011 is recorded as other comprehensive income (loss).  In 2010, an impairment loss was recorded in the amount of $2.6 million against the Turbotec holding.

The Company recorded a loss before extraordinary items in both fiscal 2010 and 2011.  Operating expenses increased in fiscal 2011 because of legal costs involved in litigation; one case was settled and the second resulted in a decision partially in favor of the opposition obligating the Company to pay Turbotec’s legal expenses which claim approximates £795,000; the Company is contesting such amount.

During fiscal 2011, the effect of closing of Vulcan in 2005 was reflected in the financial statements wherein Vulcan’s $2.8 million of debts were written off as all secured creditors had been satisfied and unsecured Vulcan creditors passed the statute of limitations, resulting in a gain of $1.6 million (net of tax) which is shown as an extraordinary item.

2010 Compared to 2009

The Company is engaged in managing its real estate and business holdings, offering consulting services to, and investing in, other companies. The Company competes with other companies which have been established for a longer period of time, are larger, and possess substantially greater financial resources and substantially larger staffs. No assurances can be given that the Company will be able to successfully compete with such firms.

Income resulted from rental income in fiscal 2010.

Operating expenses increased in 2010 vs. 2009 reflecting primarily the legal costs involved in the litigation regarding the interpretation of the relationship agreement that was required to consummate the London IPO of Turbotec in May 2006.

The equity in earnings of Turbotec Products Plc (the Plc) was derived from the 56.32% ownership by the Company of the Plc shares. Additionally, an impairment of $2.6 million was recorded against the Turbotec investment.  The sale of one of the Company’s other holdings in an unaffiliated entity was realized in fiscal 2009.

The Company recorded a loss in fiscal 2009 primarily as a result of increased operating expenses and the reduced equity in the earnings of the PLC, partially offset by the sale of the stock of an unaffiliated company. The loss in 2010 was caused primarily by litigation expenses and the normal operating expenses of the Company.

Rental income derives from the two buildings located in Windsor, CT that were rented in the years ended 2010 and 2009. The current tenants are not expected to renew their leases and the properties are being offered for sale or rent, although there can be no assurance that a sale or rental will be consummated, nor if it is able to do so, the financial effect of such transactions, if any.

The Company is seeking other organizations that could be interested in obtaining assistance through consulting assignments for their organizations. Such opportunities are possible from a modular building manufacturer that is currently seeking financing and a metal finishing company that has approached the Company’s management on a preliminary basis. The difficulty in consummating such assignments is believed to be a result of the general sluggish economy and the lack of credit available through banks or other lenders. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate such opportunities.
 
FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, or ASU 2011-05.  The amendments in this ASU require an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity.  ASU2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted.  We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2011-05 on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U. S. GAAP & IFRS,” which results in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS.  Consequently, the amendments change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements.  ASU 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  The adoption is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU 2010-06”).  ASU 2010-06 provides amendments to ASC 820 by requiring new disclosures for transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy, and expands disclosures related to activity in Level 3 fair value measurements.  ASU 2010-06 also clarifies existing disclosures on the level of detail required for assets and liabilities measured at fair value from their respective line items on the statement of financial position, and the valuation techniques and inputs used in fair value measurements that fall within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.  ASU 2010-06 was effective for the Company as of May 1, 2010.  We adopted the standard of this pronouncement, which did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s working capital position was negative at March 31, 2010 and 2011.  It is anticipated that future working capital will be generated by the sale of assets and through rents, although no assurance can be given that these efforts will be successful.

At July 13, 2009, the Company’s line of credit was due to be repaid in July 2009 and the lender has initiated foreclosure proceedings.

Cash was generated from short term borrowings and the sale of assets as well as from fees and rents received.

The Company anticipates collection of rents, to be applied against its defaulted bank loans, through December 31, 2011.  The Company currently does not have any existing prospects to lease its facilities in 2012.

Considerations regarding Forward-Looking Disclosures.

This report contains certain forward-looking statements regarding the Company, its business prospects and results of operations that are subject to certain risks and uncertainties posed by many factors and events that could cause the Company’s actual business, prospects and results of operations to differ materially from those that may be anticipated by such forward-looking statements. Factors that may affect such forward-looking statements include, without limitation:  the Company’s ability to successfully and timely develop and finance new projects, the impact of competition on the Company’s revenues, the real estate market in Connecticut, and the economy as it relates to companies seeking and able to pay for consulting services.
 
When used, words such as "believes," "anticipates," "expects," "continue", "may", "plan", "predict", "should", "will", "intends" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying forward-looking statements.  Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report.  The Company undertakes no obligation to revise any forward-looking statements in order to reflect events or circumstances that may subsequently arise. Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by the Company in this report, news releases, and other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect the Company’s business.

The Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers believe, based on their evaluation, that as of March 31, 2011 the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) were effective such that the material information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act within the specified time periods under the Exchange Act and such information is:  (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
 
(b)  Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act.  Under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our control over financial reporting was conducted based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).  Based on the evaluation under the framework, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of March 31, 2011.

Attestation reports of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting are not required for smaller reporting companies, therefore no attestation report is included.

Item 13.         Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
 
(a)           Transactions with Management and Others and Certain Business Relationships - None of the officers and directors of the Company are currently engaged in businesses competitive to the business of the Company.  Since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year, the Company has not been engaged in any material transaction(s) in which any officer, director, person or entity with which they were affiliated, or beneficial holders of more than 5% of its outstanding voting securities, had a direct or indirect interest and no such transactions currently proposed, except as presented below.

Tower Structures, Inc.  Tower Structures, Inc. (“TSI”) was a modular building manufacturer.  In fiscal-2009, the Company loaned $300,000 to finance the start-up and early operations of TSI.  The loan was secured by the assets of TSI and by a total of 45% of the outstanding common shares of TSI which are pledged in favor of the Company by two principals of TSI.  The Company was also issued common stock in TSI comprising 6% of its outstanding capital stock.  Robert A. Lerman on February 20, 2009 became president, CEO and a director of TSI; he was compensated by TSI at the rate of $5,000 per month for six months through July 2009.  He was issued common stock in TSI comprising 5% of its outstanding capital stock as a performance incentive.

TSI's facilities were destroyed in the 24-inch plus snowstorm on January 24, 2011 rendering the turnkey operation unusable and beyond resurrection.  Mr. Lerman had resigned as an officer and director of TSI effective 2010.  The Company has written off the loan.

The Company does not have any formal policies and procedures for review, approval or ratification of related party transactions.  In the transaction reported above, the terms of the transaction with Mr. Lerman were on the same terms as with unrelated third parties who participated.

(b)           Director Independence.  Mr. John J. Hughes is an independent director of the Company.  In making the determination that Mr. Hughes is an independent director, the Board used the criteria of applicable NASDAQ rules to determine his independence.  Mr. Hughes is the sole member of the Company’s Audit, Compensation and Nominating/Corporate Governance Committees and under the criteria of applicable NASDAQ rules is also an independent member of such Committees.  In determining independence, the Board of Directors did not consider any transaction, relationship or arrangement under the independence definition of the NASDAQ rules.  Messrs. Lerman and Ferraro are also members of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee but are not independent under the criteria of the applicable NASDAQ rules as they are officers of the Company.

Item 14.         Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

Auditor Independence  – The Audit Committee evaluated whether providing non-audit services by Mahoney Sabol & Co., LLP for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant's independence, and concluded it is independent.

Pre-Approval Policy – The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent auditors.  The non-audit services include audit-related services and tax services.  The Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve all services and fees for up to one year, which approval includes the appropriate detail with regard to each particular service and its related fees.  In addition, the Audit Committee can be convened on a case-by-case basis to approve any services not anticipated or services whose costs exceed the pre-approved amounts.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of
Thermodynetics, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Windsor, Connecticut

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Thermodynetics, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Thermodynetics, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of March 31, 2011 and 2010 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011 AND 2010
 
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Thermodynetics, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Vulcan Industries, Inc., TPI Systems, Inc. and National Energy Systems, Inc. (collectively the “Company”).   All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Nature of Operations:

Thermodynetics, Inc. is engaged in managing its real estate and business holdings and investing in other companies.

Estimates:

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.  Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash:

 
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The restricted cash represents cash held in escrow to be utilized toward any obligations due relating to litigation with Turbotec Products, Plc (Plc) as more fully discussed in Note 22 a).  As of July 1, 2011, this cash is not longer subject to the restrictions.

 
Marketable Securities:

The Company determines the appropriate classification of debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date.

Property and Equipment:

Property and equipment of the Company are carried at cost.  For financial and income tax reporting purposes, depreciation is computed using straight-line and accelerated methods over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized; expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

Estimated useful lives to compute depreciation are as follows:
 
Office equipment, furniture and fixtures   7 years
Building and improvements  40 years

YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011 AND 2010
 
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued):

 
Revenue Recognition:

 
Rental income is recognized when services are rendered or when the revenue is earned.

Income Taxes:

The Company files consolidated federal and combined state corporate income tax returns with all of its subsidiaries.  Tax credits are recorded as a reduction of income taxes in the year realized. The Company utilizes the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes as prescribed by ASC 740.  This method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax return and financial statement reporting bases of certain assets and liabilities.

The Company follows ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

Earnings Per Common Share:

The Company follows ASC 260, which simplifies the standards for computing earnings per share (EPS) and makes them comparable to international EPS standards.

Reclassification:

Certain amounts as of March 31, 2010 have been reclassified to conform with the March 31, 2011 presentation.  The reclassifications have no material affect on the financial statements.

New Pronouncements:

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, or ASU 2011-05.  The amendments in this ASU require an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity.  ASU2011-05 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this pending adoption of ASU 2011-05 on the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued):

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U. S. GAAP & IFRS,” which results in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS.  Consequently, the amendments change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements.  ASU 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  The adoption is not expected to have a material impact on these financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements” (“ASU 2010-06”).  ASU 2010-06 provides amendments to ASC 820 by requiring new disclosures for transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy, and expands disclosures related to activity in Level 3 fair value measurements.  ASU 2010-06 also clarifies existing disclosures on the level of detail required for assets and liabilities measured at fair value from their respective line items on the statement of financial position, and the valuation techniques and inputs used in fair value measurements that fall within Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.  ASU 2010-06 was effective for the Company as of May 1, 2010.  The Company adopted the standard of this pronouncement, which did not have a material impact on these financial statements.
 
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN:

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  However, the Company has sustained substantial operating losses in recent years, has used substantial amounts of working capital in its operations and at March 31, 2011, current liabilities exceed current assets by $1,252,400.  The Company is currently in default on their line of credit and one of its long-term mortgages and subsequent to year end, the bank has commenced an action (Note 21).  Certain of the Company’s assets are held for sale which are expected to be able to cure the defaults.

In view of these matters, realization of a major portion of the assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon curing the defaults, satisfying its current liabilities and the success of its future operations.  Management believes that actions presently being taken (partial sale of an asset, see Note 6) along with management’s future plans to raise cash through the sale of other long-term assets, provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 4 – FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:

Concentrations of Credit Risk:

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and marketable securities.

 
·
Cash – At various times during the fiscal year, the Company’s cash balances exceeded federally insured limits. The cash balance was in excess of federally insured limits at March 31, 2011, but was not at March 31, 2010.
 
·
Marketable Securities – These securities are primarily held in one entity, the PLC.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

ASC 825-10 requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments for which the determination of fair value is practicable.  ASC 825-10 defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments approximate their fair value as outlined below:

 
·
Cash and trade payables – The carrying amounts approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

 
·
Line of credit – The carrying amount approximates fair value as the line of credit has a fixed rate but there has not been much fluctuation in the market.

 
·
Long-term debt and capital leases – The carrying amount approximates fair value as the interest rates on the various notes/leases approximate the Company’s estimated incremental borrowing rate.

The Company’s financial instruments are held for other than trading purposes.
 
NOTE 5 – MARKETABLE SECURITIES:

 
The Company invests in certain marketable securities that are categorized as available for sale. The cost and market values of marketable securities as well as the unrealized gains and losses are as follows at March 31:
 
    2011     2010  
             
Cost   $ 1,356,966     $ 28,980  
Unrealized gains      288,938       15,645

  $ 1,934,852     $ 3,017,850  

The building located at 50 Baker Hollow Road is presently listed for sale, and has been classified as Assets Held for Sale on the balance sheet.  As the carrying value of the building exceeds the anticipated selling price less direct costs of disposal, the building has been written down to $850,000.  A loss on impairment in the amount of $53,626 has been recorded during the year ended March 31, 2011.

NOTE 7 – OTHER ASSETS:

Other assets consist of the following at March 31:

The deferred financing costs and the investment were written off during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011.  Additionally, a $300,000 loan receivable, previously written down, was written off during fiscal 2011.
 
NOTE 8 – INVESTMENT IN TURBOTEC PRODUCTS, PLC

The Company’s investment in the PLC is carried at market value at March 31, 2011, and is included in marketable securities on the balance sheet, as the Company no longer has significant influence.  At March 31, 2010, the equity method of accounting was utilized whereby the investment was carried at cost and adjusted for the Company’s proportionate share of their undistributed earnings or losses.  On April 26, 2010 and December 21, 2010, the Company sold 3,400,000 and 1,100,000 shares, respectively, of the stock of the PLC.  Prior to the sales, the Company held a 56.32% investment in the PLC and currently owns 21.18%.

NOTE 10 – NOTES PAYABLE AND LONG-TERM DEBT:

In December 2006, the Company refinanced the mortgage on the Day Hill Road property by obtaining a 10-year, $900,000 mortgage note payable from a bank.  The mortgage note is secured by a first mortgage on the building.  The note is payable in monthly principal installments of $3,750 plus accrued interest commencing January 21, 2007.  Interest is accrued on the unpaid principal at a fixed rate of 7.5%.

In August 2004 the Company refinanced the mortgage on its multi-purpose building by obtaining a 10-year, $1,000,000 mortgage note payable.  The mortgage note is secured by a first mortgage on the multi-purpose building.  The note is payable in one hundred twenty monthly installments of principal and interest of $8,932 and has a fixed interest rate of 6.9%.

As a result of the default relative to the Line (Note 9) and the cross default provisions of the Line agreement, the two mortgages above are technically in default as of March 31, 2011.  Therefore, these mortgages are classified as current liabilities in these financial statements.  The Company has continued to pay principal and interest under the terms of the mortgages through March 31, 2011.

The Company has a term loan dated December 1, 2006, which is payable in 60 monthly installments of $1,628 including principal and interest at 6.39%.  The note is secured by a vehicle.  The Company also has a term loan dated May 6, 2008, which is payable in 36 monthly installments of $974 including principal and interest at 1%.  The note is secured by a vehicle.

 NOTE 14 – INCOME TAXES (Continued):

The alternative minimum tax (AMT) had no effect on the tax provision for financial reporting purposes.  State taxes accrued were based on net income on a separate company basis.

The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory rates to income before income taxes for continuing operations for fiscal years 2011 and 2010. The principal reasons for this difference are listed in the following table as of March 31:

Net deferred tax asset
  $ -     $ 1,200,000  
 
Differences between financial reporting and tax reporting relate primarily to equity method accounting, reserves, deferred revenue and differences between depreciation for financial reporting and tax reporting purposes.  Net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $6,000,000 and $7,000,000 are available for federal and state income tax purposes.  The carryforwards begin to expire in 2026 for federal income tax purposes and 2023 for state income tax purposes.
 
In July 2006, the FASB issued ASC 740-10. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10 effective April 1, 2007.  This interpretation was issued to clarify the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements by prescribing a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.
 
The cumulative effect of adopting ASC 740-10 did not have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.  At March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had no material gross unrecognized tax benefits.  At this time, the Company’s best estimate of the reasonably possible change in the amount of the gross unrecognized tax benefits is deemed not to be material during the next twelve months mainly due to the expiration of certain statutes of limitations.  The federal statute of limitations remains open for this fiscal year.  Tax years 2007 and forward are subject to audit by state tax authorities depending on open statute of limitations waivers and the tax code of each state.

NOTE 19 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:

In August 2005, the Company discontinued the operations of Vulcan.  From that date through March 31, 2007 the Company liquidated Vulcan’s remaining assets and settled all secured liabilities.

Total long-term liabilities of discontinued operations were $- for March 31, 2011 and $2,782,195 for March 31, 2010.

During the fiscal quarter ended September 30. 2010, the Company extinguished debts totaling $2,782,195, which reflected liabilities from Vulcan.  Vulcan was closed during 2005 and all secured creditors were satisfied.  The remaining liabilities were payable by Vulcan alone to unsecured creditors, and with the passing of their statutory rights, those liabilities were written off resulting in a gain, net of taxes of $1,582,195, which has been reflected as an extraordinary item.
 
NOTE 20 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:

In September 2006, The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Financial Accounting Standards Codification No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (FASB ASC 820), which established a framework for identifying and measuring fair value.  FASB ASC 820 provided a fair value hierarchy, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets, and is expected to be applied to fair value measurements of derivative contracts that are subject to mark to market accounting and other assets and liabilities reported at fair value.

ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Financial assets and liabilities recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:

Level 1 – measurements utilize unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.  These consist primarily of listed equity securities; exchange traded fixed income securities, derivatives and certain U.S. government treasury securities.

Level 2 – measurements include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, and other observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.  These consist primarily of non-exchange traded derivatives such as swaps, forward contracts of options and most fixed income securities.

NOTE 20 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued):

Level 3 – measurements use unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities, are based on the best information available and might include the entity’s own data.  In some valuations, the inputs used may fall into different levels of hierarchy.  In these cases, the financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  These consist mainly of assets and liabilities valued through an internal modeling process.

Available-for-Sale and Held-to-Maturity Securities – The Company uses pricing computed utilizing the quoted market prices of the securities to determine fair value for these classes of securities.  Since these financial assets consist of exchange traded fixed income and equity securities, they are classified in Level 1 of the financial hierarchy.

Assets Held for Sale – The Company utilized the sales contract as the basis for the computation of fair value.

Investments – at equity – At March 31, 2010, this investment was deemed impaired and written down to its fair value based on quoted market prices.

NOTE 22 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

The following are the known or threatened legal proceedings:

 
a)
The lawsuit instituted by the Company on January 8, 2008 in the High Court in England, file no. HC08C00046, against Turbotec Products Plc was concluded in February, 2010.  A judgment in favor of the Company on one count and against it on two counts was rendered on May 10, 2010.  The net effect of the London judgment held that the Company was required to reimburse the PLC for 85% of the PLC’s legal expenses which the PLC has claimed approximate £795,000; the Company is contesting such amount.  On May 24, 2010 in accordance with the judgment, the Company paid £350,000 to the PLC on account of their costs.   The Company could ultimately be responsible for £325,000 of legal costs claimed by the PLC, although the Company believes the amount may be substantially less.  These legal fees have been accrued at March 31, 2010 and are included in accrued expenses in these financial statements as of March 31, 2011 and 2010.

 
b)
Turbotec Products, Inc. commenced a lawsuit against Thermodynetics on February 27th, 2008 in the Connecticut Superior Court, Judicial District of Hartford, alleging that Thermodynetics breached two commercial leases, and that Thermodynetics improperly withdrew funds from a sinking fund established under the leases, and for fraudulent inducement, fraudulent misrepresentation, and violation of the Connecticut Unfair Trade Practices Act.  The parties settled the lawsuit and on January 10th, 2011 mutual releases were exchanged between Thermodynetics and Turbotec, and the lawsuit was dismissed without any financial obligation owed to either party.  An outcome of the settlement was that Turbotec extended its leasehold interest in the Day Hill facility through December 31st, 2011.

 
c)
The Company's bank initiated and served two separate lawsuits on June 28th, 2010 against the Company in the Connecticut Superior Court, Judicial District of Hartford, alleging defaults of a line of credit and certain mortgages and seeking recovery through foreclosure of the liens against the two commercial buildings.  Negative outcomes in either of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect upon the Company.  At March 31st, 2011, the Company was current on both primary mortgages and was current on its interest payments against the line of credit which had matured in 2009.  The default initially was against the line of credit which has not been repaid and the bank has claimed a cross-default against the mortgages.  The Company believes there is material equity in the buildings exceeding the value of all of the bank debt.  The current balance due under the line of credit and mortgages equals approximately $2.4 million; the Bank is claiming such balance plus costs and legal expenses of the proceeding.  In the event the bank is successful in its foreclosure proceedings and a qualified buyer for the properties is not secured, the loss to the Company could exceed the amounts due under the line of credit and mortgages.  However, in the event of a strict foreclosure, under Connecticut foreclosure law, a court would apply a fair market value to the properties and buildings based upon a then to be appraised value as of the date title vested in the bank; therefore, the likely risk of loss to the Company would be the loss of the land and buildings but not further financial deficiency claims.  Both properties are currently listed for sale with a commercial real estate broker, and management would also consider any long-term lease opportunities.
