SUMMARY OF BUSINESS AND BASIS FOR PRESENTATION

Organization and Business
Green Earth Technologies, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, GET Well! Inc., (collectively, the “Company”), were each formed on August 7, 2007 under the laws of the state of Delaware.  The Company markets, sells and distributes environmentally safe lubricants, cleaning products and oil well service products.  The Company’s product line crosses multiple channels including the automotive aftermarket, oil well services, marine and outdoor power small engine and cleaning markets. The Company sells to home centers, mass retail outlets, automotive stores, equipment manufacturers and over the Internet.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments unless otherwise indicated) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented.

Certain information in footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements were prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such principles and the financial results for the periods presented may not be indicative of the full year’s results. The Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10K filed in September 2013 (the “2013 Annual Report”).

Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the 2013 Annual Report.

Liquidity and Going Concern
Due to the Company’s limited capital, recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations and the Company’s limited ability to pay outstanding liabilities, there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.

Since inception, the Company has incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations.  As of September 30, 2013, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $77,128, with total stockholders’ deficit of $14,867.  The Company has a working capital deficit of $12,741 at September 30, 2013 and is currently in default of the 3.25% Secured Note and the 6% Secured Note issued to related parties, disclosed in note 6.  These notes matured on September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively, and has not been extended and is payable upon demand.
 
The Company has undertaken, and will continue to implement, various measures to address its financial condition, including:
 
    Continue discussions with existing and potential new investors regarding an investment in the Company.
    Seek debt, equity and other forms of financing, including funding through strategic partnerships.
    Attempt to increase revenues in order to reduce or eliminate the Company’s operating losses and enable it to meet its financial obligations.
    Reduce expenses to conserve cash.
    Defer certain marketing activities.
    Investigate and pursue transactions with third parties, including strategic transactions and relationships.
 
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure the additional funding the Company needs.  If the Company’s efforts to do so are unsuccessful, the Company will be required to further reduce or eliminate  the Company’s operations. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

DERIVATIVE LIABILITY
 
Secured Convertible Debentures Conversion Option
 
The Debentures (as defined in note 8) are convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), at a conversion price of $0.17 per share (the “Conversion Price”).  The Conversion feature provides for weighted average anti-dilution protection in the event that any shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into shares of Common Stock, are issued at less than the Conversion Price.  The conversion feature was bifurcated from the Debenture because of price protection features and is accounted for as a derivative liability.
 
The table below summarizes the fair values of the Company’s financial liabilities:

The table below sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities (Derivative liability - Debentures) for the periods ended September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013:

These instruments were valued using pricing models that incorporate the price of a share of Common Stock (as quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board), volatility, risk free rate, dividend rate and estimated life.  The Company computed the fair value of the conversion feature using the Black-Scholes model.
 
The following are the key assumptions used in connection with this computation:

Life of Debentures (years)
    1.2-2.4       1.5-2.7  
 
Warrant Liability
 
In connection with the issuance of Debentures, the Company issued warrants to purchase up to 22,059,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrants”).  The Warrants have an exercise price of $0.21 per share (the “Exercise Price”).  Warrants covering up to 18,382,000 shares of Common Stock are exercisable at any time on or before December 31, 2016 and Warrants covering up to 3,677,000 shares of Common Stock are exercisable at any time on or before March 31, 2018.  The Warrants are accounted for as derivative liabilities because the agreement provides for weighted average anti-dilution protection in the event that any shares of Common Stock, or securities convertible into Common Stock, are issued at less than the Exercise Price.

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

Special Note About Forward-Looking Statements
 
Certain statements in Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”), other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933,as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”.)  These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Overview of our Business

We create, develop, market, sell and distribute an array of G-branded, environmentally-friendly, bio-based performance and cleaning products.  Our products, including our G-OIL® and G-CLEAN® brands, are used primarily in the automotive aftermarket, and the outdoor power equipment, well service and marine markets.  Our technology platform for manufacturing proprietary and innovative high performing “green” products is the end result of company created or sourced intellectual property. Our ultimate biodegradable “green-base” replaces traditional petroleum and chemical derived bases typically associated with motor oils and other lubricants as well as cleaning solutions without compromising performance or value.  We believe our products deliver comparable or superior performance at competitive prices, thus giving consumers the ability to “do their part” in protecting the environment without paying more.

We sell the majority of our products directly to retailers and installers as well as through master distribution agreements with wholesalers and contractual arrangements with independent sales and marketing professionals. Our products are available at a number of national retail outlets and chain stores including Walmart, The Home Depot, Menards, ACE Hardware and Canadian Tire Corporation. We are actively pursuing relationships with other wholesalers and retailers to include additional major national consumer purchase locations in the household goods, automotive aftermarket, outdoor power equipment market, oil and gas market and marine market. Manufactured domestically under supply and requirement contracts, our proprietary environmentally preferred base oils are comprised of fatty acids procured from either plant and vegetable oils or animal fats.

We believe there are very few “green” lubricant products available at retailers for consumers who are willing to “do their part” and those products that purport to be “green” are not “green”, too expensive or are not effective.  Our goal since 2007 has been to provide a superior green product at prices comparable to traditional products within the same category designation and to validate the proposition that by eliminating price and performance discrepancies, consumers will usually go “green”.  We trademarked the phrase “SAVE THE EARTH – SACRIFICE NOTHING®”, meaning that consumers and customers alike should not have to give up value or performance when choosing to go “green”.  We believe we succeeded in validating this proposition as we have gained and maintained distribution at some of the United States largest retailers.

Results of Operations
(All dollar amounts referred to herein are in thousands, except as otherwise indicated.)
 
Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 and 2012

Our activities for the three months September 30, 2013 and 2012 essentially included capital origination, product development, manufacturing, marketing and sales of our bio-degradable performance and cleaning products and development of mass market product distribution networks for the intended distribution of our products.
 
Our results of operations are as follows:

         Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2013 were $1,140, primarily attributed to sales of G-OIL® outdoor power equipment 4-cycle engine oils and G-CLEAN® pressure washing products.  Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2012 were $2,081, primarily attributed to sales of G-CLEAN® oil and gas well service products, G-OIL® outdoor power equipment 4-cycle engine oils,   G-OIL® 5W-30 motor oil and G-CLEAN® pressure washing products. The decrease in net sales from 2012 to 2013 is due to prior year sales of G-CLEAN® oil and gas well service products compared to no sales for the months ended September 30, 2013.

For the three months ended September 30, 2013, approximately 80% of our sales were from two customers, TTI (The Home Depot) and Menards.  For the three months ended September 30, 2012, approximately 90% of our sales were from four customers, entities owned or controlled by Francesco Galesi (“Galesi Entities”), TTI, Menards, Inc, and Walmart.

Net sales are comprised as follows:

                Cost of Sales (exclusive of depreciation and amortization)

Cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) primarily consists of the cost of obtaining bio solvents, plant oils, additives, packaging components and fees paid to our affiliates for the costs of bottling and blending our products.  Cost of sales (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 were $1,132, and $1,763, respectively.  The decrease in cost of sales from 2013 to 2012 is primarily due to the decrease in net sales.

We will continue to evaluate other opportunities to improve gross margins on our existing product line. We intend to further increase profitability of our product base through various measures which may include changing product formulations, reducing components cost by increasing volume and reducing expenses by improving operations.
 
               Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits, product development and testing fees, advertising and marketing expenses, public relations, insurance and fees for professional services.  Selling, general and administrative expenses include the following:

 
   
Three Months Ended September 30,
 
   
2013
   
2012
 
Salaries
  $ 208     $ 246  
Selling, marketing, public relations and related
    323       949  
Development, product release and testing
    82       141  
Management and operating fees
    129       229  
Legal and professional
    128       164  
Occupancy, communications and all other, net
    128       135  
Total selling, general and administrative expenses
  $ 998     $ 1,864  

The decrease in salaries is due to the employee’s agreement to reduce their salary in exchange for restricted stock and a decrease in headcount.  The decrease in selling, marketing and public relations expenses is due to decreased sponsorship fees, advertising spending and promotional spending.  The decrease in development, product release and testing is due to a reduction of third party testing.    The decrease in management and operating fees is due to lower shipping fees.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was approximately $281 and $247, respectively. 

Depreciation and amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense totaled $51 and $52 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Depreciation charges totaled $4 and $5 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and amortization expense for intangible assets totaled $47 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  Depreciation and amortization expense is excluded from cost of sales.

Change in revaluation of derivatives

The change in fair value of our derivative liabilities resulted in a favorable adjustment of $587 and $1,455 for three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The value of the derivative liabilities was determined using the Black-Scholes method.  See note 7 to our financial statements for inputs used to calculate the fair value of our derivatives liabilities.

Interest expense, net

Net interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was approximately $1,090 and $238, respectively.  Interest expense consists of $729 in connection with the amortization of the debt discount on our outstanding secured convertible debentures, $186 in connection with the cancellation of the commitment shares included in the Lincoln Park Capital agreement, $115 in connection with the accrued interest on the outstanding secured convertible debentures, $52 for accrued interest on notes payable to related parties and $8 in connection with the deferred financing costs relating to the outstanding secured convertible debentures.  Interest income, which was not significant, consists of interest earned on bank deposits and an institutional money market fund.

Seasonality
 
Although our various product lines are sold on a year-round basis, the appearance chemicals and outdoor power equipment markets are inherently seasonal. Seasonality impacts liquidity in that we generally record the majority of our annual retail sales in the quarters ending March and June.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, we had $163 and $189 in cash and an accumulated deficit of $77,128 and $75,303, respectively.  At September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, we had a working capital deficit of $12,741 and 12,110, respectively.

Net cash used in operating activities was $826 and $1,616 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The decrease from 2012 to 2013 was primarily due to the decrease in funding and sales which generated less cash to spend on operations.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $800 and $1,880 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.  The decrease in financing activities is primarily due to proceeds from the issuance of a note payable in the amount of $1,900 in 2012 compared to $800 in 2013.  The net proceeds from our financing activities were used to support purchases from suppliers and advertising costs.

We currently have no material commitments for capital expenditures.  Our capital requirements are not significant as the majority of our performance and cleaning products are outsourced to third party suppliers.  In the foreseeable future, we will require capital for the growth of our business, including increases in personnel, sales and marketing, and purchasing finished goods to fulfill orders.

Losses from operations are continuing subsequent to September 30, 2013 and we anticipate that we will continue to generate losses from operations in the near future.  Since inception, we have financed our operations by issuing securities (common stock and debt instruments) in various private placement transactions and from revenue generated by sales of our products.

Debentures and Warrants
 
We realized gross proceeds of $6,250 ($2,250 in December 2011 and $4,000 in October 2012) from the sale of our 6.0% Secured Convertible Debentures due December 31, 2014 in the aggregate original principal amount of $6,250 and warrants to purchase 18,382,000 shares of our common stock at any time on or before December 31, 2016 to eight accredited investors.  In addition, in March 2013 we realized an additional $1,250 of gross proceeds from the sale of our 6.0% Secured Convertible Debentures, due March 31, 2016 in the aggregate original principal amount of $1,250 and warrants to purchase 3,677,000 shares of our common stock on or before March 31, 2018 to two accredited investors.  (The $7,500 aggregate principal amount of 6.0% Secured Convertible Debentures due December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2016 are herein referred to collectively as the “Debentures”; and the warrants issued together with the Debentures to purchase an aggregate of 22,059,000 shares of our common stock are referred to herein as the “Warrants” and the eight accredited investors who purchased the Debentures and the Warrants are herein referred to as the “Investors”).  Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Debentures is payable quarterly in arrears in cash or shares of our common stock at our discretion.  The Debentures and the accrued but unpaid interest thereon are due upon the earlier of (i) the occurrence of an “event of default” (as defined in the Debentures) and (ii) their respective maturity dates.  The outstanding principal balance of the Debentures and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon may be converted at any time at the option of each Investor into shares of our common stock at a price of $0.17 per share (the “Conversion Price”).  We may prepay the Debentures at any time without penalty upon ten business days prior written notice to the Investors provided there is, at that time, an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and exercise of the Warrants.

The Warrants have an exercise price is $0.21.  The number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants equals 50% of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Debentures.

The Debentures and Warrants also provide for weighted average anti-dilution protection in the event that any shares of our common stock, or securities convertible into shares of our common stock, are issued at less than the conversion or exercise price of the Debentures and Warrants, respectively, except in connection with the following issuances of our common stock, or securities convertible into shares of our common stock: (i) shares issuable under currently outstanding securities, including those authorized under stock plans, (ii) securities issuable upon the exchange or exercise of the Debenture or Warrants, or (iii) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions.

Going Concern Consideration

Due to our limited amount of additional committed capital, recurring losses, negative cash flows from operations and our ability to pay outstanding liabilities, in their report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, our independent auditors stated that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, assuming that we will continue as a going concern.

Since inception, we have incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations.  As of September 30, 2013, we had an accumulated deficit of $77,128, with total stockholders’ deficit of $14,867.  We had a working capital deficit of $12,741 at September 30, 2013 and are currently in default of the related party notes payable disclosed in note 6.   These notes matured on September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively, and has not been extended and is payable upon demand.

We have undertaken, and will continue to implement, various measures to address our financial condition, including:
 
    Continue discussions with existing and potential new investors to invest in us.
    Seek debt, equity and other forms of financing, including funding through strategic partnerships.
    Attempt to increase revenues in order to reduce or eliminate our operating losses and enable us to meet our financial obligations.
    Reduce expenses to conserve cash.
    Defer certain marketing activities.
    Investigate and pursue transactions with third parties, including strategic transactions and relationships.
 
There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure the additional funding we need. If our efforts to do so are unsuccessful, we will be required to further reduce or eliminate our operations. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this item

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and our Chief Financial Officer, of effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”.)  Based on this evaluation, our President and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the Evaluation Date, to ensure that all material information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to them as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and that all such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.   It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and can therefore only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the design will succeed in achieving its stated goals.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may become involved in routine litigation incidental to our business.  Further, product liability claims may be asserted in the future relative to events not known to management at the present time.  Management believes that our risk management practices, including our insurance coverage, are reasonably adequate to protect against potential material product liability losses.  We are not a party to any material legal proceeding not in the ordinary course of business at this time.

Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds. (All dollar amounts are in thousands)

In September 2013, we issued an aggregate of 225,000 shares of our common stock, with an aggregate fair market value of $24, to pay for outstanding debt and marketing fees.

In July 2013, we issued 795,000 shares of our common stock, with an aggregate fair market value of $114, to pay the accrued interest on the outstanding Debentures.

The foregoing issuanceswere exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof.  An appropriate restrictive legend was imprinted on the back of each issued stock certificate.
