This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 about Energy & Technology, Corp. (the “Company”) and our subsidiaries, Technical Industries, Inc. (TII), Energy Pipe, LLC(EP), (a variable interest entity), and Energy Technology Manufacturing & Threading, LLC (ETMT), (avariable interest entity), that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include information concerning future financial performance, business strategy, projected plans and objectives. Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “may increase,” “may fluctuate” and similar expressions of future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,” “would,” and “could” are generally forward-looking in nature and not historical facts. Actual results may differ materially from those projected, implied, anticipated or expected in the forward-looking statements. Readers of this quarterly report should not rely solely on the forward-looking statements and should consider all uncertainties and risks throughout this report. The statements are representative only as of the date they are made. The Company, TII, and Energy Pipe, LLC (sometimes referred to herein on a consolidated basis as the Company, we, us, or similar phrasing) undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement.
These forward-looking statements, implicitly and explicitly, include the assumptions underlying the statements and other information with respect to the Company's beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates, financial condition, results of operations, future performance and business, including management's expectations and estimates with respect to revenues, expenses, return on equity, return on assets, efficiency ratio, asset quality and other financial data and capital and performance ratios.
Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, these statements involve risks and uncertainties that are subject to change based on various important factors, some of which are beyond the control of the Company. The following factors, among others, could cause the Company's results or financial performance to differ materially from its goals, plans, objectives, intentions, expectations and other forward-looking statements:
·
|
general economic and industry conditions;
|
·
|
our capital requirements and dependence on the sale of our equity securities;
|
·
|
the liquidity of the Company’s common stock will be affected by the lack of a trading market;
|
·
|
industry competition;
|
·
|
shortages in availability of qualified personnel;
|
·
|
legal and financial implications of unexpected catastrophic events;
|
·
|
regulatory or legislative changes effecting the industries we serve; and
|
·
|
reliance on, and the ability to attract, key personnel.
|
For a discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements, see “Risk Factors” in the Company’s S-1 Report filed with the SEC, which is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. All forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement, and the Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which factors, if any, will arise. In addition, the Company cannot assess the impact of each factor on the Company’s business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

ENERGY &TECHNOLOGY, CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
Note 1. Organization
Technical Industries & Energy, Corp. (the Company) (TIE) was formed November 29, 2006 under the laws of the State of Delaware in order to acquire and to take over the assets and business of Technical Industries, Inc. (TII). On that date, the Company issued 125,000,000 shares of common stock to American Interest, LLC, in exchange for founder services rendered. The fair value of these services was considered immaterial, and no amounts were recognized in the financial statements. At the time the shares were issued to American Interest, LLC, TIE had no assets, operations, or cash flows. As such, the stock had no value at the time TIE was established. The par value was arbitrarily established in order to comply with the State of Delaware laws. In order to reflect the par value of the shares issued, the Company recognized a discount on capital stock as a contra-equity account within the equity section of the consolidated balance sheets. On January 3, 2007, the Company entered into a Stock Exchange Agreement and Share Exchange (the Agreement) whereby the sole shareholder of TII exchanged all of the outstanding shares of the TII to the Company in exchange for 50,000,000 shares of Company stock. Accordingly, TII became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at the carrying value to TII since TII and the Company were under common control prior to the acquisition.
TII specializes in the non-destructive testing of vessels, oilfield equipment and mainly pipe, including ultrasonic testing, utilizing the latest technologies. These technologies enable TII to (i) provide detailed information to customers regarding each pipe tested, and (ii) reach energy reserves present technology cannot reach without extra cost to the oil and gas companies. Because of the intense scrutiny applied to each section of pipe, TII is able to generate data which allows the pipe to be used in the most extreme conditions, and has been proven especially useful in deep water drilling operations in the Gulf of Mexico.
On August 29, 2008, the Company effected a name change from Technical Industries & Energy Corp. to Energy & Technology, Corp. to better reflect the nature of the Company’s business.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Technical Industries, Inc., the accounts of Energy Pipe, LLC (a variable interest entity), and the accounts of Energy Technology Manufacturing & Threading, LLC (a variable interest entity). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial information for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature and include appropriate estimated provisions.
Basis of Accounting
Assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses are recognized on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates due to information that becomes available subsequent to the issuance of the financial statements or for other reasons.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue for inspection services is recognized upon completion of the services rendered. Revenue for the sales of pipe is recognized when: a) pipe is delivered and the customer takes ownership and assumes the risks of loss, b) collection of the relevant receivable is probable, c) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, and d) the sales price is fixed or determinable.
Trade Receivables
Trade accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Trade credit is generally extended on a short-term basis; thus receivables do not bear interest, although a finance charge may be applied to amounts past due. Trade accounts receivable are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history with customers and their current financial condition. Provisions for uncollectible amounts are determined based on management’s estimate of collectability. Provisions for uncollectible amounts were $14,640 for the quarters ending September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost determined by the specific identification method or market. At September 30, 2013 and at December 31, 2012, inventory consisted of pipe available for sale.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for property and equipment and items that substantially increase the useful lives of existing assets are capitalized at cost and depreciated. Routine expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of property and equipment disposed of are eliminated from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized.
Depreciation is provided utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets capitalized.
Based on management’s intentions, investment property, which is held for the purposes of earning rental income and capital appreciation, is distinguished from property owned and occupied by the Company. The Company is not currently depreciating the property held as investment, nor has any rental income been earned.
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets
In the event facts and circumstances indicate that carrying amounts of long-lived assets may be impaired, the Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets using the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down is required, pursuant to the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC 360-10-35. Any impairment loss is measured as the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the impaired asset.
Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of temporary cash investments and trade receivables. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, three customers made up approximately 54% of the Company’s revenues, and two customers made up approximately 75% of the Company’s receivable balance at September 30, 2013. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, three customers made up approximately 57% of the Company’s revenues, and four customers made up approximately 89% of the Company’s receivable balance at September 30, 2012.
The Company maintains cash balances at several financial institutions, and periodically maintains cash in bank accounts in excess of insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses and does not believe that significant credit risk exists as a result of this practice.
Advertising
The Company charges the costs of advertising to expense as incurred. Advertising expense of $13,753 was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 advertising expense was $2,865. Advertising is recorded as part of Other Operating Expenses.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the consolidated statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes). ASC 740 uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of “temporary differences” by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to the difference between financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating losses and tax credits that are available to offset future income taxes.
When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any.

ENERGY & TECHNOLOGY, CORP.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above would be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the consolidated balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits would be classified as additional
income taxes in the statement of operations.
Comprehensive Income
The Company had no components of comprehensive income. Therefore, net income (loss) equals comprehensive income (loss) for the periods presented.
Emerging Growth Company Critical Accounting Policy Disclosure
The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” under the 2012 JOBS Act. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As an emerging growth company, the Company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The Company may elect to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period in the future.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income – Presentation of Comprehensive Income.”ASU No. 2011-05 eliminated the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of stockholders’ equity. It requires 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. In December, 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, “Comprehensive Income – Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in ASU 2011-05” to defer the effective date of the specific requirement to present items that are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income to net income alongside their respective components of net income and other comprehensive income. All other provisions of this update, which are to be applied retrospectively, are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning December 15, 2011, The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption will have on their consolidated financial statements.
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, “Balance Sheet – Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” ASU 2011-11 requires entities to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements of financial instruments and derivative instruments and will be applied retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. ASU 2011-11 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption will have on its consolidated financial statements.
On January 1, 2012, the Company adopted guidance issued by the FASB on accounting and disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements. The guidance limits the highest-and-best-use measure to nonfinancial assets, permits certain financial assets and liabilities with offsetting positions in market or counterparty credit risks to be measured at a net basis, and provides guidance on the applicability of premiums and discounts. Additionally, the guidance expands the disclosures on Level 3 inputs by requiring quantitative disclosure of the unobservable inputs and assumptions, as well as description of the valuation processes and the sensitivity of the fair value to changes in unobservable inputs. Adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
Note 3. Patent
On September 4, 2007, the Company’s chief executive officer was awarded a patent from the United States Patent and Trademark Office pertaining to his development of specialized testing procedures for drilling pipe utilized by oil-exploration companies.
The Company’s costs associated with its development of these testing procedures and application for patent have been capitalized and recognized as an asset in the Company’s balance sheet, and is being amortized over 20 years. Amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $21,589 respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
General
Headquartered in Lafayette, Louisiana, with production facilities in Houston, Texas and Abbeville, Louisiana, Energy & Technology, Corp. provides non-destructive testing (NDT) services, OCTG and oilfield pipe sales, service and storage, and rig and equipment sales. Originally founded on May 11, 1971 as an inspection company, Energy & Technology, Corp. currently serves customers throughout the oil patch of Louisiana and Texas as well as in Canada, Mexico, and in the Gulf of Mexico. The Company’s customer base of over 130 accounts consists of major oil companies, steel mills, material suppliers, drilling companies, tool rental companies, and natural gas storage operators. Due to the nature of its technology, the Company maintains competitive advantages in offshore deep water and other onshore critical projects.
Technical Industries, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Energy & Technology, Corp., manufactures its own proprietary NDT equipment. The Company’s patented ultrasonic systems have some of the largest OD and pipe length capabilities in the industry and the deepest penetration capability offered for wall thickness measurement. The Company holds patents on certain exclusive inspection technology that allows oil and gas companies to use their current drill strings and other equipment to reach depths that were previously unreachable. This technology can make wells safer, increase the success rate for critical wells, and greatly reduce the chances of a failure. As the industry moves to ever deeper reserves and makes advances in horizontal drilling, oil and gas wells are becoming more and more expensive and difficult to drill, making this technology more of a necessity.
In the oilfield pipe sales and storage segment, Energy & Technology, Corp utilizes a state-of-the-art web based inventory management system that allows each client to view and track projects during processing, to locate inventory throughout the plant, and access reports, bill of ladings, tally sheets, logs and other required information.
Energy Technology Manufacturing & Threading, LLC’s new facility has been completed and is fully operational. This facility is capable of threading, bucking, and repair of drill pipe, casing, and tubing up to 11 7/8” diameter. The plant is equipped with a Computer Controlled lathe accurate to within the most critical of tolerances, and has the capability to manufacture, thread, repair, and manufacture pup joints and marker joints to any length the customer requires, as well as to machine any threads for which specs can be furnished. Technicians have between 10 and 34 years of experience in the manufacturing and threading industry. This new facility brings ENGT one step closer to its goal of supplying all tubular services under one roof.
Key Ongoing Operational Processes:
Update ISO Certification
Energy & Technology, Corp. recognizes that quality is every bit as important as price and prompt service. This is even truer of the Company’s typical client, who often contracts for services that other companies are not able to provide. In response to our clients’ requirements, the Company has obtained the latest ISO:9001 certification by Moody’s, recognized in the industry as representing the highest quality control available. As the Company’s business lines are very synergistic, management feels that it can leverage this dominant position to increase share in the markets in which it competes, and likely more in the critical service arena.
Foreign Trade Zone Status
Energy & Technology, Corp. has selected the well known auditing and financial consulting firm KPMG to assist the Company in meeting the requirements to establish a Foreign Trade Zone at its Houston, Texas facility. KPMG has started the initial feasibility analysis with the formal application to follow. The establishment of a Foreign Trade Zone is expected to produce a substantial increase in the Company’s ability to sell to overseas markets, and make the Company a far more attractive distribution partner for foreign manufacturers. Management feels that market share could be taken through a successful designation as an FTZ subzone.
Increased Sales and Marketing Effort
Energy & Technology, Corp. has grown over the historical period without an aggressive marketing and sales effort. New business was generated from referrals, technical sessions given to oil and gas and industry related companies, the Company website, and through the use of a marketing company on a limited basis. . Recently, several new deep water well permits were issued in the Gulf of Mexico. As a result, ENGT has experienced significant new interest from major oil and gas companies - including site visits and evaluations - for its VisonArray™ deep water and critical well technologies, and ENGT Manufacturing facilities. Currently, there are several employees whose duties are focused on sales, and one marketing and promotional activity director. Management believes revenue can be greatly increased by expanding the Company's sales force.
15
Diversification
Energy & Technology, Corp. has diligently worked to diversify its business model by adding sales, service, and storage of OCTG and all types of oilfield pipe, as well as equipment leasing and sales. The Company’s new threading and repair facility, located on our Houston campus, became operational in July 2010 and on September 30, 2011 received numerous ISO and API certifications. Additional growth will come domestically, but management feels that overseas expansion is critical to the ultimate success of the business plan.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Company has identified the following accounting policies to be the critical accounting policies of the Company:
Revenue Recognition. Revenue for inspection services is recognized upon completion of the services rendered. Revenue for the sales of pipe is recognized when pipe is delivered and the customer takes ownership and assumes the risks of loss, collection of the relevant receivable is probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, and the sales price is fixed or determinable.
Inventory. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost determined by the specific identification method or market. At September 30, 2013, inventory consisted of pipe available for sale.
Property and Equipment. Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for property and equipment and items that substantially increase the useful lives of existing assets are capitalized at cost and depreciated. Routine expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of property and equipment disposed of are eliminated from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized. Depreciation is provided utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets capitalized.
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets. In the event facts and circumstances indicate that carrying amounts of long-lived assets may be impaired, the Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets using the estimated future undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down is required, pursuant to the provisions of SFAS Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) ASC 360-10-35. Any impairment loss is measured as the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the impaired asset.
Discussion of Changes in Financial Condition from December 31, 2012 to September 30, 2013
At September 30, 2013, total assets amounted to $11,911,818 compared to $13,065,758 at December 31, 2012, a decrease of $1,153,940, or 8.83%. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in cash of $351,682, a decrease in inventory of $569,037, and a decrease of property and equipment held for operations of $706,421, partially offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $322,517, an increase in deferred tax asset of $151,395, and an increase in property held for investment of $69,433.
Our liabilities at September 30, 2013, totaled $7,684,802 compared to $8,269,272 at December 31, 2012, a decrease of $584,470, or 7.1%. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in accounts payable of $129,448, a decrease in notes payable of $396,396, and a decrease in deferred taxes payable of $158,266, partially offset by an increase in accrued rent of $112,500.
Total stockholder’s equity decreased from $4,796,486 at December 31, 2012, to $4,227,016 at September 30, 2013. This decrease was due to our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and our purchase of treasury stock in the year.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and Cash Equivalents totaled $2,527,513 at September 30, 2013, a decrease of $351,682 from the balance of $2,879,195 at December 31, 2012. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to amounts used to reduce debt, partially offset by the cash generated from operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
16
Inventory
Inventory consists primarily of pipe held for sale to our customers. We began purchasing pipe for sale to customers in December, 2007. This was an opportunity for us to expand our services to our customers. It is anticipated that the Company will continue its efforts to expand its sales of pipe.
Property and Equipment
The decrease in property and equipment is primarily due to depreciation for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 of $721,346.
Deferred Tax Asset/Income Taxes Payable
Due to the Company’s loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, our deferred tax asset has increased by $151,395. We have decreased our deferred income taxes by $158,266 due to the change in book and tax depreciation differences.
Accounts Payable
Accounts payable at September 30, 2013 totaled $2,090,597 compared to $2,220,045 at December 31, 2012, a decrease of $129,448. The decrease is primarily due to payments on pipe.
Discussion of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2013 compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2012
Revenues
Our revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013, was $1,415,130, compared to $1,447,967, for the three months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of $32,837, or 2.3%. The decrease is attributable primarily to a decrease in pipe sales.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit
Our cost of revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013, was $962,945, or 68.0% of revenues, compared to $925,021, or 63.9% of revenues, for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The overall increase in our cost of revenue is primarily due to an increase in the cost of pipe. The increase in cost of revenue as a percentage of revenues was due to slightly lower margins.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit
Our cost of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, was $2,978,223, or 80.6 % of revenues, compared to $4,744,738, or 70.6% of revenues, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The overall decrease in our cost of revenue is primarily due to our decreased sales. The increase in cost of revenue as a percentage of revenues was due to the fixed costs reported in cost of revenues. Materials and supplies decreased $1,802,641 due to the decrease in pipe purchases. Subcontract labor costs decreased by $52,780, or 8.0%. Labor and related costs increased by $15,962, or 4.3%. These increases are primarily attributable to the increase in volume of inspection services. The increase in depreciation expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2012 is primarily due to equipment purchases. Maintenance expense decreased by $123,488, or 70.2%, during this period.

Capital Resources and Liquidity
As of September 30, 2013 we had $2,527,513 in cash and cash equivalents. Our cash outflows have consisted primarily of expenses associated with our operations. These outflows have been offset by the timely inflows of cash from our customers for sales that have been made. We have been able to utilize our relationships with affiliated entities to stabilize our liquidity needs.
We believe we can satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months only with our current cash and additional loans. However, completion of our plan of operation is subject to attaining adequate revenue. We cannot assure investors that adequate revenues will be generated. In the absence of our projected revenues, we may be unable to proceed with our plan of operations. Even without adequate revenues within the next twelve months, we still anticipate being able to continue with our present activities, but we will require financing to potentially achieve our growth goals.
In the event we are not successful in reaching our initial revenue targets, additional funds may be required, and we may not be able to proceed with our business plan for the development and marketing of our core services. Should this occur, we would likely seek additional financing to support the continued operation of our business.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is subject to certain market risks, including changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates. The Company does not undertake any specific actions to limit those exposures.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls .Our management evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of our second fiscal quarter 2013 pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2013.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our management team will continue to evaluate our internal control over financial reporting in 2013 as we implement our Sarbanes Oxley Act testing.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We were recently served with a motion filed by a major Chinese supplier requesting the court for a Temporary Restraining Order against the Company regarding a contractual dispute; however, the court found that no wrong doing was committed by the Company in order to award the Temporary Restraining Order. The court ruled in favor of the Company and denied the supplier its motion. The Chinese supplier sued again on the same basis previously denied by the Texas Court seeking damages arising out of an alleged conversion of property. Technical Industries, Inc. has moved to dismiss the claims, stating that the dispute needs to be part of an arbitration proceeding pending in Louisiana. Technical Industries, Inc. feels the lawsuit is frivolous because the state court has already ruled in Technical Industries favor.
We recently filed a claim against a machine manufacturer and seller. This suit arises out of the purchase by Energy Technology Manufacturing & Threading, LLC ("ETMT") of equipment from the manufacturer. The machine is designated for use in ETMT's facility in Houston, Texas. The claim arises out of defendant's delayed installation of equipment and the delivery of non-working equipment. The delay caused ETMT substantial damages as a result of lost revenues.
We were recently served with a motion from a local municipality seeking to cancel a March 1, 2005 lease between the municipality and Technical Industries, Inc. relating to property located at the Local Municipal Airport. The thrust of the lease is that Technical Industries, Inc. does not conduct full time operations on the premises, and based on that the municipality seeks cancellation of the lease. Technical Industries, Inc. primarily uses the premises for storage of its equipment, and for conduct of jobs which become available from time to time. Technical Industries, Inc. has been encountering frivolous claims orchestrated by a particular City councilman who previously claimed Technical Industries, Inc. had no insurance; accusations which turned out to be false for several years. The particular councilman’s motive is to take over the property for his personal use. Technical Industries, Inc. hopes to win this case again on the same basis. The operation of the facility is the sole concern of Technical Industries, Inc.
We recently filed a claim against Aspen Specialty Insurance Company and Evanston Insurance Company. These claims arise out of insurance policies secured by Technical from Evanston and Aspen. Technical Industries, Inc. filed an Answer, Counterclaim and Third Party Action in which it has asserted claims against both Aspen and Evanston arising out of their failure to meet their obligations under their respective insurance policies. Thereafter, Aspen and Evanston funded a settlement of the underlying lawsuit.
There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our Company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our Company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, except as stated above, which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.
