OCTuS, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

 
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
OCTuS, Inc. (“OCTuS”) was formed as a California corporation in 1983.  On December 29, 2001, a majority of the shareholders voted to change our state of incorporation from California to Nevada.  In December 2003, the change was completed and OCTuS became a Nevada corporation.  Today OCTuS is seeking to become a leading resource efficiency company that brings innovative energy efficiency and water efficiency solutions to the commercial and public sector markets.  OCTuS intends to pursue and facilitate resource energy efficiency projects involving energy and water efficiency systems, and products that OCTuS may develop, acquire, license or distribute.  OCTuS believes that the market demand for energy and water conservation presents an attractive business opportunity.  On June 10, 2010, OCTuS entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement and related agreements with Quantum Energy Solutions, Inc., a California corporation (“Quantum”).  Effective June 30, 2010, the acquisition of Quantum has been accounted for using purchase accounting since OCTuS acquired substantially all of the assets, debts, employees, intangible contracts and business of Quantum.
 
OCTuS determined Quantum Energy Solutions, Inc. to be its predecessor entity as Quantum’s historical operations were significantly larger than the historical operations of OCTuS.  For purposes of financial statements, designation of an acquired business as a predecessor is required if a registrant succeeds to the business of another entity and the registrant’s own operations prior to the succession appear insignificant relative to the operations assumed or acquired.  As such, OCTuS has included the historical financial statements of Quantum as its predecessor entity.
 
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of OCTuS have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis and the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in our 2010 Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  Notes to the consolidated financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for 2010 as reported on Form 10-K have been omitted.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The financial statements include the business combination of Quantum Energy Solutions, Inc. as of June 30, 2010 and thereafter.  All significant intercompany transactions and balances, if any, have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
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 amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 
5

 
 
Reclassification

Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Revenue is derived primarily from providing services under short-term negotiated fixed and variable fee arrangements.  Revenue is recognized when it is earned, typically when our services have been rendered.  Upon execution of an agreement, if services have not been provided then the amount to be paid as a deposit under such agreement is recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet and is reclassified as revenue on the statement of operations after services have been provided and such revenue earned.  Any amount that has been earned, but not yet billed, is recorded as work in process or unbilled at the balance sheet date.  Our product revenue is recognized upon delivery to the customer.
 
Loss Per Share
 
Basic loss per common share calculations were determined by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the years.  Diluted loss per common share calculations were determined by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding.  During the three months ending March 31, 2011 and 2010 common stock options of 1,560,000 and 60,000, warrants of 2,580,000 and 702,000, and debt convertible into shares of 8,341,928 and 5,806,690, respectively, were not included in the calculation, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
 
Subsequent Events
 
OCTuS has evaluated all transactions from March 31, 2011 through the financial statement issuance date for subsequent event disclosure consideration.

New Accounting Pronouncements
 
There were various accounting standards and interpretations issued recently, none of which are expected to a have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, operations or cash flows.

Note 2 – Going Concern
 
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplates continuation of OCTuS as a going concern.  OCTuS has a working capital deficit of $2,318,178, a stockholders’ deficit of $2,340,010 and an accumulated deficit of $26,324,664 as of March 31, 2011.  In addition, OCTuS has generated net losses of $320,545 and $372,117 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and currently has minimal revenue generated from operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
We are actively seeking technologies and business endeavors in the clean energy sector, which may include the licensing or acquisition of alternative energy and energy efficiency products or technologies and the development of clean energy financing programs.  Although we are seeking such opportunities, it is unlikely that we will be able to consummate any such transaction which would generate sufficient revenues to sustain our operations. We anticipate the need for additional debt or equity financing and if OCTuS raises additional funds through equity financing transactions, the issuance of additional shares would dilute the ownership of existing shareholders.  However, OCTuS has no commitment from any party to provide additional capital and there is no assurance that such funding will be available when needed, or if available, that its terms will be favorable or acceptable to OCTuS.  OCTuS is reliant on a related party to provide working capital.  There is no assurance that such related party will continue to provide working capital.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of OCTuS to continue as a going concern.
 
Note 3 - Business Combination
 
Purchase of Quantum Energy Solutions, Inc.
 
On June 10, 2010, OCTuS entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement and related agreements with Quantum Energy Solutions, Inc., a California corporation (“Quantum”).  Effective June 30, 2010, the acquisition of Quantum has been accounted for using purchase accounting since OCTuS acquired substantially all of the assets, debts, employees, intangible contracts and business of Quantum.
 
The purchase price included 150,000 shares of OCTuS common stock, valued at $7,500, on the date of the transaction closing which was June 10, 2010, at $0.05 per share, plus assumption of $62,891 in accounts payable and accrued expenses; assumption of a line of credit facility with a balance of $45,253 and assumption of a 3-year promissory note to the seller for $130,000.
 
OCTuS entered into various employment and consulting arrangements with Quantum employees and a former owner where OCTuS issued 700,000 stock options to purchase common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.06 to $0.11 per share.  OCTuS estimated the fair market value of these stock options to be $38,513 using a Black Scholes pricing model and will be amortized over the future requisite service period.  During the year ended December 31, 2010 and the quarter ended March 31, 2011, $12,289 and $5,207, respectively, of stock-based compensation relating to these options was recognized.   The two year consulting arrangement with a former owner of Quantum included additional compensation of (i) a monthly cash payment of $5,000 and (ii) commissions on contracts originated by the consultant on Quantum projects of 10% of the gross margin payable in common stock; 30% of the gross margin payable in cash on projects invoiced in the first 90 days after consummation of the purchase; 20% of the gross margin payable in cash on projects invoiced in the second 90 days after purchase; and 10% of the gross margin payable in cash for projects invoiced thereafter through the end of the two year term.  All additional compensation described above occurs after the purchased accounts payable have been paid for.
 
On June 10, 2010, OCTuS assumed a three-year promissory note with the former principal owner of Quantum in the amount of $130,000.  The note has a simple interest rate of 6% per year.  No later than the 10th day of each month, OCTuS shall pay 36 equal monthly payments of $3,955 for principal and interest (assuming no further principal payments are made as further described) and make principal reduction payments as may occur of 10% of the gross margin of revenue received over the prior 30 days from projects initiated by former Quantum employees or principals.  OCTuS may prepay any or this entire note and accrued interest with no penalty any time before the maturity of the note.  In June 2010, the former principal of Quantum and OCTuS agreed to assign this note to a trust administered by the former principal owner of Quantum.   As of December 31, 2010, OCTuS had made principal payments of $13,319 under the terms of this note and is currently behind in its monthly payments. No payments were made during the quarter ended March 31, 2011. 
 
In addition, OCTuS assumed the outstanding balance of $45,253 owed under a Line of Credit Facility with a variable interest rate currently at 7.25%.  The total line of credit capacity is $50,000, but OCTuS cannot borrow under the line of credit.  During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, OCTuS has made no principal payments under the terms of this line of credit.  OCTuS is behind in its obligations under this note payable.
 
 The acquisition price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values with the excess being recorded in goodwill.  The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. Subsequent to the acquisition, and at March 31, 2011, management examined the collectability of the acquired receivables and determined that $12,890 of the originally acquired receivables were no long deemed to be collectible, so management reserved for those receivables with a corresponding increase to goodwill:

Note 4 – Related Party Transactions
 
Effective March 31, 2009, a convertible promissory note with a principal balance of $328,106 and accrued interest of $38,686 held by Grupo Dynastia SA was sold to Sasaima Holdings, SA, whose principal owner is the former president of Octus.  This party had already held a promissory note in the amount of $113,747.  The terms of the new combined $480,539 note were modified such that the principal and interest will be paid over 60 months.  The Company is currently behind on payments, but the lender has waived default through April 15, 2012.  The convertible promissory note can be converted into common stock at a rate of $0.10 per share and bears interest at an annual rate of 8% until converted or paid.  The current portion of this note is $275,000 and $237,500 at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.  See Note 8 Subsequent Events for details on conversion of accrued interest.

Note 5 – Notes Payable - Related Parties
 
During March 2011, Octus CEO Chris Soderquist loaned OCTuS a total of $15,000 under a note agreement.  The note accrued interest at the rate of 10% per year and payment of the accrued interest and principal are due not later than March 20, 2012.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2010, Mr. Soderquist loaned OCTuS a total of $48,500.  $500 of these loans bears interest at 10% and is due upon demand.  $48,000 of these notes is due in November and December 2012 and is presented as long term.
 
Note 6 – Convertible Notes Payable
 
In March 2011, OCTuS entered into an agreement for an Equity Line of Credit and a Convertible Bridge Loan with a third party.
 
Under the terms of the Equity Line of Credit:
 
o  
The third party may commit to purchase up to $5,000,000 of the company’s common stock over the course of twenty-four months after an effective registration statement has been filed with the SEC.  If the Company does not complete the registration statement, then the commitment is null and void.
 
o  
Upon OCTuS’ option, the maximum amount of any individual purchase of OCTuS’ common stock is $350,000 at any one time and no purchase will be made in amount lower than $20,000.
 
o  
The purchase price will be set at 90% of the market price of the stock.
 
o  
There have been no issuances under this facility.
 
o  
Under the terms of the Convertible Bridge Loan:
 
o  
Financings will consist of a series of convertible notes in an aggregate amount of up to $250,000 with the first tranche being $32,000 and subsequent tranches as agreed upon by the parties.
 
o  
In March 2011, $32,000 was funded directly to a vendor for payment of accounts payable.
 
o  
The convertible notes carry an interest rate of 9% and are convertible into shares of common stock at the greater of $0.025 or 70% of the average lowest volume weighted average price for 10 trading days prior to conversion.  The floor of $0.025 would be eliminated if OCTuS fails to enter into a minimum of $600,000 in new contracts by June 30, 2011.  The Company did not meet this operational threshold and has determined that this instrument as a result of the floor being eliminated qualifies for a derivative liability to be recorded at June 30, 2011.  The Company subsequently amended the agreement on September 29, 2011, to establish a permanent floor of $0.01.  The Company has estimated a derivative liability of $35,566 at June 30, 2011 and $26 at September 29, 2011, the effective date of the amended agreement.
 

A commitment fee of $250,000 worth of restricted common shares will be issued to the third party in consideration of funding of the convertible notes.  The first tranche of shares worth $83,333 was due with the funding of the first tranche of $32,000 that took place on March 31, 2011.  OCTuS issued 2,547,055 shares on April 6, 2011 in satisfaction of this first commitment.  At March 31, 2011, OCTuS recorded a debt discount and interest expense in the amount of $32,000 and $51,333 for the fair market value of the shares.  These shares were not issued until April 2011; therefore OCTuS recorded a stock payable of $83,333 for this transaction as of March 31, 2011.  On September 29, 2011, the amended agreement stated the shares issued for the initial tranche of $83,333 were deemed to fulfill the company’s obligations in their entirety.  The remaining tranches of stock under the commitment fee are not due until (1) filing the registration statement, assuming funding has occurred and (2) the registration statement becoming effective, assuming funding has occurred.  The details of all convertible notes payable are as follows:

In January 2011, OCTuS entered into a two-year employment agreement with John Walter naming Mr. Walter as the Chief Operating Officer.  Under the terms of the agreement, Mr. Walter will be paid a base salary of $120,000.  By mutual consent, the salary from January 1, 2011 through March 31, 2011 was to be paid on April 1, 2011.  Mr. Walter will be eligible for a discretionary bonus of 30% of the base salary as determined by the Board.  OCTuS issued options to purchase 500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.016 which will vest in two tranches at the one-year and two-year anniversary.  OCTuS estimated the fair market value of these options using the Black-Scholes pricing model to be $5,690.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
This following information specifies certain forward-looking statements of management of the company.  Forward-looking statements are statements that estimate the happening of future events and are not based on historical fact.  Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “may”, “shall”, “could”, “expect”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “predict”, “probable”, “possible”, “should”, “continue”, or similar terms, variations of those terms or the negative of those terms.  The forward-looking statements specified in the following information have been compiled by our management on the basis of assumptions made by management and considered by management to be reasonable.  Our future operating results, however, are impossible to predict and no representation, guaranty, or warranty is to be inferred from those forward-looking statements.
 
The assumptions used for purposes of the forward-looking statements specified in the following information represent estimates of future events and are subject to uncertainty as to possible changes in economic, legislative, industry, and other circumstances.  As a result, the identification and interpretation of data and other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from and among reasonable alternatives require the exercise of judgment.  To the extent that the assumed events do not occur, the outcome may vary substantially from anticipated or projected results, and, accordingly, no opinion is expressed on the achievability of those forward-looking statements.  We cannot guarantee that any of the assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements specified in the following information are accurate, and except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.
 
Critical Accounting Policy and Estimates
 
Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section discusses our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation.  Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources.  These accounting policies are described at relevant sections in this discussion and analysis and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed on Form 10-K.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Revenue is derived primarily from providing services under short-term negotiated fixed and variable fee arrangements.  Revenue is recognized when it is earned, typically when our services have been rendered.  Upon execution of an agreement, if services have not been provided then the amount to be paid as a deposit under such agreement is recorded as deferred revenue on the balance sheet and is reclassified as revenue on the statement of operations after services have been provided and such revenue earned.  Any amount that has been earned, but not yet billed, is recorded as work in process or unbilled at the balance sheet date.  Our product revenue is recognized upon delivery to the customer.

Overview
 
Octus was incorporated in October 1983 under the laws of the State of California.  On December 29, 2001, a majority of the shareholders voted to change our state of incorporation from California to Nevada.  In December 2003, this change was completed and we became a Nevada corporation.  Currently our Common Stock is eligible for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board (Pink sheets under the symbol OCTI.
 
The Company seeks to become a leading resource efficiency company that brings innovative energy efficiency and water efficiency solutions to the commercial and public sector markets.  OCTuS intends to pursue and facilitate resource efficiency projects involving energy and water efficiency systems, and products that OCTuS may develop, acquire, license or distribute.  OCTuS believes that the market demand for energy and water conservation presents an attractive business opportunity.
 
We are actively seeking technologies and business opportunities in the resource efficiency sector, which may include the licensing, acquisition or development of energy and water efficiency products or technologies and the facilitation and management of financing solutions for resource efficiency projects.  We intend to recruit management, advisors and affiliates with sufficient experience needed to review and qualify such technologies and business opportunities for our involvement.  Although we are seeking such opportunities, we may not consummate any such transactions beyond what have been consummated to date, and it is possible such transactions would not generate sufficient revenue to sustain our operations.  We anticipate the need for additional debt or equity financing, and if the Company raises additional funds through equity financing transactions, the issuance of additional shares would dilute the ownership of existing shareholders.
 
On February 22, 2011, OCTuS announced the signing of a definitive agreement with Alternative Energy Partners, Inc. (OTCBB: AEGY) to acquire one hundred percent of Élan Energy Corp. and Sunarias Corporation in exchange for common shares of Octus. In addition, Octus signed a definitive agreement with Lin Han Equity Corporation to transfer majority ownership of Octus to Lin Han, in exchange for common stock in privately-held Healthcare of Today, Inc., and working capital to fund Octus' growth strategy.
 
On July 19, 2011, OCTuS announced that, effective July 13, 2011; it had discontinued negotiation of an Acquisition Agreement with Alternative Energy Partners, Inc. (“AEGY”) and an Investment Agreement with Lin-Han Equity Corporation due to non-performance by AEGY and Lin-Han, with no further action or claim.
 
On August 2, 2011, OCTuS announced it has completed seven water efficiency projects for multi-family apartment communities. The water-saving retrofit projects involved the replacement of inefficient toilets with high-efficiency systems in Northern California apartment complexes, generating an estimated 5.3 million gallons of water savings per year. Octus secured financing for the projects including $80,000 in utility rebates, significantly subsidizing the water-saving property improvement for the apartment management and investment groups.
 
On August 17, 2011, OCTuS announced the debut of RebateWorks™, a multi-faceted service focused on simplifying the procurement of utility company rebates and incentives.
 
On September 14, 2011, the Company announced the debut of PACEWorks™, a platform to develop, implement and manage Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing programs. PACE financing enables property owners to make renewable energy, energy efficiency, and water efficiency improvements through low-interest, long-term loans secured by voluntary property tax assessments. Through PACEWorks, Octus provides turnkey program services, including PACE program creation, sales and marketing, contractor training, project qualification, and project financing. 
 
On September 19, 2011, the Company announced the successful implementation of a RebateWorks™ program for multi-family property management and investment companies. Octus submitted rebate reservations to Pacific Gas and Electric Co. (PG&E) on behalf of 56 apartment communities for the replacement of more than 10,000 water- and energy-guzzling showerheads. 
 
On September 28, 2011, the Company announced it will team with Ygrene Energy Fund to collaboratively develop and market the City of Sacramento's commercial PACE (Property Assessed Clean Energy) financing program under a contract awarded to Ygrene on September 27, 2011. Octus and Ygrene estimate that, over the next five years, PACE-funded clean energy improvements in Sacramento will create more than 1,500 jobs and generate $264 million in economic output.
 
            On October 12, 2011, the Company announced it has completed a comprehensive energy-saving renovation of the Hallmark Inn, a 134-room boutique hotel in Davis, California and an affiliate member of Worldhotels' First Class Collection. As a result, annual energy use for the modernized lighting systems will be reduced by 52 percent (an estimated 51,000 kWh), with annual demand savings of 13.6 kW (a 58 percent reduction).

Management believes that without an influx of significant new funds or the generation of positive cash flows through operations, we will not be able to sustain our operations in the near future. Although we have actively been pursuing new investment, we cannot give assurance that we will enter into any new investment, or that the terms of any such agreements will be on terms favorable to us.  There is no assurance that anyone will continue to fund us.  Should we be unable to obtain additional funds, we could be forced to cease business activities altogether, and the holders of security interests would likely be entitled to receive all or substantially all of our assets.
We are implementing a business plan focused to provide innovative solutions that significantly and reduce energy and water use in buildings.    We seek to accomplish this through the implementation of energy and water efficiency projects, including equipment upgrades, energy auditing and consulting, financing programs, management and facilitation of utility company rebates, and lighting and HVAC retrofit projects.

Our corporate strategy is to:

Develop energy-saving projects and deliver energy-efficiency services, including the retrofit of municipal , commercial and multi-family buildings with energy-efficient lighting, HVAC and energy management systems;

(2)  
 
Develop water-saving projects and deliver water-efficiency services, including the retrofit of municipal, commercial and multi-family buildings with water-saving products and systems;

(3)  
Develop, administer, market and implement turnkey energy-efficiency and water-efficiency programs for energy utilities, water agencies, and commercial real estate managers, developers and investors; and,

(4)  
Create, implement and administer energy financing programs;

(5)  
Identify, analyze, prescribe, manage and procure utility company rebates under the Company’s RebateWorks service offering\.

We focus on three specific markets: the commercial and industrial market, including utilities, the multi-family market, and the M.U.S.H. (municipality, university, school and hospital) market.

We believe the following factors drive demand for resource efficiency services by property owners and managers in the U.S. commercial, industrial, utility, multi-family and M.U.S.H. markets:

·  
The potential for significant return on investment and demonstrable long-term cost savings resulting from the financing and implementation of efficiency solutions;
·  
Concerns regarding the substantial and volatile cost of energy and water, the adverse implication of global climate change and the desire for energy independence;
·  
Increasing pressure on corporations and public sector organizations to establish and attain sustainability goals;
·  
Increasing regulatory pressure on utilities to include energy efficiency, renewable energy and water conservation in their resource plans and budgets;
·  
The availability of rebates and tax incentives at the federal, state, and regional levels for organizations that reduce their resource consumption;
·  
Existing and prospective government mandates to improve the efficiency of M.U.S.H. facilities and;
·  
The migration toward a low-carbon economy which will potentially place a price or tax on the carbon emissions of our clients.

Our EfficiencyWorks business provides energy engineering, consulting and financing services. These services target development and implementation of energy-efficient lighting, HVAC, water conservation, and energy management projects for commercial, industrial, multi-family and municipal building owners. Our customers reduce energy use and costs, improve reliability, increase the value of their real estate assets and maximize the operating efficiency of their buildings.  In June 2010, we acquired certain assets of Quantum Energy Solutions, Inc., a pioneer in the development of energy efficiency projects.

Our RebateWorks business seeks to maximize the value of energy and water efficiency rebates for customers, and improve the impact these programs have for utilities and the communities they serve. RebateWorks offerings fall into three main categories:

1.  
Services – A turnkey service for multi-family and institutional property owners and managers that aids them in capturing utility rebates and incentives for energy- and water-efficient building improvements.
2.  
Products – Octus has partnered with manufacturers of leading energy- and water-efficiency products to bundle rebates with their products, thus improving the economic value of such measures.
3.  
Programs – We leverage our experience in working with utility companies to assist in creating, marketing and administering rebate programs that have maximal impact on GHG and water reduction goals.

Our EfficiencyFinancing business seeks to create, manage and administer financing for building improvements that reduce utility expenses and improve the amenity of buildings.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 (Successor) Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 (Predecessor)

We realized revenue of $85,514 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 from execution of resource efficiency projects as compared to $76,732 of revenue during the same period of March 31, 2011 (predecessor), an increase of $8,782.  We recognized a gross profit of $35,250 during the three months ended March 31, 2011 as compared to $55,272 for our predecessor for the same period ending March 31, 2010, a decrease of $20,022.  This was primarily related to negotiating projects at slimmer margins.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, our general and administrative expenses were $263,653, as compared to $64,766 for the three months ended March 31, 2010 for our predecessor.   The increase of $198,887 was primarily due to an increase in salary expense, professional and consulting fees and fees associated with being a public company.

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $92,142 compared to $1,018 incurred by our predecessor for the three months ended March 31, 2010.  The increase of $91,124 was due to a higher debt balance for the successor company and interest expense of $51,333 due to a difference in the market value of stock to be issued as a commitment fee of $83,333 to Orchid Capital and the amount of proceeds loaned to the company by Orchid of $32,000 for payment of certain accounts payable.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the three months ended March 31, 2011, we incurred a net loss of $320,545 that included $8,261 of noncash share-based compensation expense, $51,333 of share-based interest expense, and an increase of our accounts payable and accrued expenses of $53,556.  Our total assets were $274,682 as of March 31, 2011 of which $225,672 was related to goodwill from our acquisition of Quantum Energy.  Our current liabilities were $2,361,153 as of March 31, 2011 including $600,286 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, $356,080 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities due to related parties, $670,455 in current portion of convertible notes net of debt discount of $32,000, $275,000 in convertible notes due to a related party, $42,468 of short-term debt to related parties and $243,303 of common stock payable.  We also had $205,539 in the long-term portion of convertible debt and $48,000 notes payable due to a related party - long term.

In addition to revenues that we may receive from customers and sales of products and services, we will need to raise additional funds through debt or equity financing to achieve our current business strategy.  The financing we need may not be available when needed.  Even if this financing is available, it may be on terms that we deem unacceptable or are materially adverse to the interests of existing investors with respect to dilution of book value, dividend preferences, liquidation preferences, or other terms.  Our inability to obtain financing will inhibit our ability to implement our development strategy, and as a result, could require us to diminish or suspend our development strategy and possibly cease our operations.  If we are unable to obtain financing on reasonable terms, we could be forced to delay, scale back or eliminate certain product and service development programs.  In addition, such inability to obtain financing on reasonable terms could have a negative effect on our business, operating results or financial condition to such an extent that we are forced to restructure, file for bankruptcy, sale assets or cease operations.  We cannot provide assurances that we will be able to enter into any new investment, or that the terms of any agreements relating to any new investment will be on terms favorable to the Company.
 
Our Plan of Operations for the Next Twelve Months
 
Over the past year we have actively pursued technologies and business opportunities in the resource energy sector, and we continue to pursue such technologies and opportunities.  We have recruited management, advisors and affiliates who we believe have sufficient experience to review and qualify such technologies and business opportunities.  Although we continue to seek such opportunities, we may not consummate any such transactions beyond what have been consummated to date, and it is possible such transactions would not generate sufficient revenue to sustain our operations.
 
Although we have actively been pursuing new investment, we cannot give assurance that we will enter into any new investment, or that the terms of any such agreements will be on terms favorable to us.  There is no assurance that anyone will continue to fund us.  Should we be unable to obtain additional funds or finance growth through ongoing operations, we could be forced to cease business activities altogether, and the holders of security interests would likely be entitled to receive all or substantially all of our assets.
 
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
There are no off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Disclosure controls and procedures are defined as those controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Based on their evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer concluded that as of March 31, 2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Our conclusion was based on (1) our lack of systematic accounting and disclosure procedures, notwithstanding that the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto are prepared and reviewed by management and that the Company’s chief financial officer reviewed each transaction during the periods covered by the report that had an effect on the Company’s financial statements included in the Form 10-Q, (2) the absence of personnel, other than the chief financial officer, with requisite expertise in the functional areas of finance and accounting, and (3) the absence of a functioning audit committee or outside directors on the Company’s board of directors.
 
Management Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.  Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
 
1.  
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
 
2.  
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and
 
3.  
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
 
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations.  Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and reporting.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
During the Annual 10-K review process for the year ended December 31, 2010 management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.  Based on this evaluation, our management concluded our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2010 and the deficiencies reported continue to be deficiencies as of March 31, 2011.
 
 
1.
Overall lack of systematic accounting and disclosure procedures, notwithstanding that the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto are prepared and reviewed by management and that the Company’s chief financial officer reviewed each transaction during the periods covered by the report that had an effect on the Company’s financial statements included in the Form 10-K,
 
 
2.
The absence of personnel, other than the chief financial officer, with requisite expertise in the functional areas of finance and accounting, and
 
 
3.
The absence of a functioning audit committee or outside directors on the Company’s board of directors.
 
 
20

 
 
A material weakness is a control deficiency (within the meaning of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) Auditing Standard No. 5) or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Throughout the period covered by the report, the Company had minimal amounts of cash and limited active business activities.  To address the weaknesses identified above, management reviewed and performed an analysis of every transaction for the period covered by the report that had an impact on the Company’s financial statements included in the Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, notwithstanding the existence of the material weaknesses described in this Item, management believes that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presents in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.  The Company also intends to address the weaknesses identified above by adding more formalized accounting, control and disclosure procedures, by hiring additional personnel resources when the Company’s operations and financial position permit it to do so, by continuing to have the chief financial officer review all significant transactions affecting the Company’s financial statements, and by considering the appointment of outside directors and audit committee members in the future where appropriate.
 
Remediation of Material Weaknesses
 
The Company intends to address the weaknesses identified above by adding more formalized accounting, control and disclosure procedures, by hiring additional personnel resources when the Company’s operations and financial position permit it to do so, by continuing to have the chief financial officer review all significant transactions affecting the Company’s financial statements, and by considering the appointment of outside directors and audit committee members in the future where appropriate.
 
Changes in Internal Controls
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 5.  Other Information
 
Certain Matters Relating to the Company’s 2003 Reincorporation Transaction
 
In connection with a review of previous corporate transactions, the Company recently became aware of administrative errors related to the Company’s change of domicile from California to Nevada at the end of 2003.  At the time of all of the events described below, the Company was a shell company with no cash (or nominal cash), no business and a small amount of liabilities consisting primarily of accrued obligations and notes to a related party.  Further, the majority shareholder, and the person who was the president of Octus California at the time of the events described below, have affirmed in writing to the Company that their vote, support and intention was to enact the events.
 
As reflected in previous filings by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), in December 2001, Octus, which was then incorporated in California (sometimes referred to as “Octus California”), distributed a proxy statement to its shareholders in connection with its annual meeting of stockholders to be held on December 29, 2001 (the “2001 Meeting”), soliciting approval for a proposal to change the state of incorporation of Octus from California to Nevada.  The proxy statement indicated that the change of domicile would be accomplished by merging Octus California into a newly formed subsidiary, Octus Nevada.  At the time, one shareholder, Grupo Dynastia, S.A., a foreign corporation, held approximately 56% of the outstanding voting stock as of the record date of the meeting.  Grupo Dynastia has represented to management of the Company in writing that it supported the reincorporation and change of domicile.  In addition, Grupo Dynastia and the person who at the time was the president of Octus California have represented to management of the Company in writing that Grupo Dynastia delivered to Octus California in advance of the 2001 Meeting a signed form of proxy appointing the president of Octus as proxy for the shareholder to vote the shareholder’s shares in favor of the reincorporation and the other proposals at the 2001 Meeting.  However, the Company does not have in its records evidence that an executed proxy was received by Octus California from Grupo Dynastia or taken into account at the meeting.
 
 
22

 
 
In December 2003, the Company decided to effect the reincorporation transaction that it believed had been approved at the 2001 shareholder meeting.  A new corporation was incorporated in Nevada named Octus, Inc. (“Octus Nevada”).  All assets and liabilities of Octus California, which consisted of the nominal cash and minimal liabilities described below, were transferred to Octus Nevada on or before December 31, 2003 as part of the change of corporate domicile. However, for reasons of administrative inadvertence, articles of merger were not filed in either Nevada or California.
 
In January 2004, dissolution and winding up certificates were filed with the California Secretary of State for Octus California, reciting that Octus California had elected to wind up and dissolve; that the election was made by the vote of at least 5.8 million shares, representing in excess of approximately 90% of the outstanding shares of the Company; that the affairs of Octus California had been completely wound up; that the known debts and liabilities of the company had been paid or provided for; and that all known assets of the company had been distributed to the Octus California shareholders.
 
The person who was the president of Octus California at the time at the time of the events described above has affirmed in writing that these filings were intended to be part of the process of implementing the reincorporation merger transaction.  At the time, Grupo Dynastia owned common stock and preferred stock of Octus California representing in excess of 97.6% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Octus California.  Grupo Dynastia has represented to management of the Company in writing that it supported and approved of the reincorporation transaction in December 2003, regardless whether it was effected by means of a merger, transfer of assets and liabilities or other mechanism.
 
On March 23, 2004, the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K with the SEC with respect to the year ended December 31, 2003 (the “2003 Form 10-K”), indicating that it was a Nevada corporation and including the following disclosure:  ”On December 29, 2001, a majority of the shareholders voted to change the Company’s state of incorporation from California to Nevada.  In December 2003, this change was completed and the Company became a Nevada corporation.”  According to the 2003 Form 10-K, at December 31, 2003, Octus was not engaged in any business activities, its total assets consisted of $22 of cash, and its liabilities consisted of accounts payable and accrued expenses of $1,238, accounts payable and accrued expenses to related parties of $16,138, and notes payable to a related party, Grupo Dynastia, of $144,271.  According to the 2003 Form 10-K, the aggregate market value of shares held by non-affiliates of the Company as of March 18, 2004, was $31,676, and the actual value of those shares may have been even less in light of, among other factors, the Company’s liabilities and lack of any business and cash assets.
 
Implementing what management of the Company believed was the merger transaction; Octus Nevada subsequently issued one share of Octus Nevada for each share of Octus California held by each person who was a former shareholder of Octus California.  If not part of the merger transaction, the Company believes the issuance of shares was part of the distribution by Octus California of its remaining assets, consisting of the shares issued by Octus Nevada, to its shareholders as part of the process of winding up Octus California.  Accordingly, there was no change in ownership of shares of the Company as the result of the redomicile.  In addition, no shareholder has communicated with the Company or its officers in any way concerning claims or complaints relating to the above matters.
 
The Company has submitted for filing with the Nevada Secretary of State, articles of merger reflecting the merger transaction that the Company believed occurred at the end of 2003.  However, the Company cannot provide any assurances concerning the legal effect, if any, of belatedly filing such articles of merger at such time in the circumstances described above.
 
The foregoing matters may give rise to liabilities, claims or regulatory actions under federal or state laws, including without limitation relating to whether sufficient shareholder approval was obtained for the reincorporation transaction, whether the issuance of shares of Octus Nevada in the reincorporation transaction complied with federal and state securities laws, whether the foregoing matters affect Octus Nevada’s status as a successor issuer under federal securities laws, and other related matters.  The Company can give no assurance as to whether any such liabilities, claims or regulatory actions, including actions by the Commission or state regulatory authorities, may arise in the future or the outcome of any such liabilities, claims or regulatory actions on the Company’s business and previously reported or current financial statements.  An adverse outcome in any such claim or proceeding could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position and results of operations.
