GLYECO, INC. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – Organization and Nature of Business
 
GlyEco, Inc. (the "Company", “we”, or “our”) is a green chemistry company that collects and recycles waste glycol into a reusable product that is sold to third party customers in the automotive and industrial end-markets. Our proprietary technology, GlyEco TechnologyTM, allows us to recycle all five major types of waste glycol into a virgin-quality product usable in any glycol application.  We are dedicated to conserving natural resources, limiting liability for waste generators, safeguarding the environment, and creating valuable green products.  We currently operate seven processing centers in the United States with our principal offices located in Phoenix, Arizona. Our processing centers are located in (1) Minneapolis, Minnesota, (2) Indianapolis, Indiana, (3) Lakeland, Florida, (4) Elizabeth, New Jersey, (5) Rock Hill, South Carolina, (6) Tea, South Dakota, and (7) Landover, Maryland.

Currently, the Company is actively exploring opportunities to acquire operating entities involved in the recycling of waste ethylene glycol and is consolidating and streamlining their operations.

NOTE 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Basis of Presentation
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by us without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted, as permitted by the SEC, although we believe the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented herein not misleading.  The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position at September 30, 2014, and the results of our operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the periods presented. We derived the December 31, 2013 condensed consolidated balance sheet data from audited financial statements, but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP.  Interim results are subject to seasonal variations and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
 
Going Concern

The condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, and as of December 31, 2013 have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As of September 30, 2014, the Company has yet to achieve profitable operations and is dependent on its ability to raise capital from stockholders or other sources to sustain operations and to ultimately achieve viable operations. In their report dated April 15, 2014, our independent registered public accounting firm included an emphasis-of-matter paragraph with respect to our financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013 concerning the Company’s assumption that we will continue as a going concern.  The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

The Company’s plans to address these matters include, raising additional financing through offering its shares of capital stock in private and/or public offerings of its securities and through debt financing if available and needed. The Company plans to become profitable by upgrading the capacity and capabilities at its existing operating facilities, continuing to implement its patent-pending technology in international markets, and acquiring profitable glycol recycling companies, which are looking to take advantage of the Company’s public company status and improve their profitability through a combined synergy. The Company expects gross margins to increase as the costs associated with integration continue to decline and sales of our T1TM material reach plan levels.

Reclassification of Prior Year Amounts

Certain prior year numbers have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.  These reclassifications have not affected the net loss or net loss per share as previously reported.
 

Net Loss per Share Calculation

The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during a period. Diluted income per common share is computed by dividing the net income, adjusted on an as if converted basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potentially dilutive securities. The Company has other potentially dilutive securities outstanding that are not shown in a diluted net loss per share calculation because their effect in both 2014 and 2013 would be anti-dilutive.  These potentially dilutive securities excluded from the calculation include Series AA Preferred Stock, options and warrants. At September 30, 2014, these securities included warrants of 18,667,326 and stock options of 10,699,428 for a total of 29,366,754. At September 30, 2013, these securities included warrants of 20,867,703 and stock options of 10,215,506 for a total of 31,083,209. In addition, at September 30, 2013, there are 2,342,740 common shares that can potentially be issued upon the conversion of the Series AA Convertible Preferred Stock. There were no shares of Series AA Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding at September 30, 2014.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern and in May 2014, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to revenue recognition.

ASU 2014-15 requires management to perform an assessment of going concern and under certain circumstances disclose information regarding this assessment in the footnotes to the financial statements.  ASU 2014-15 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2016.

The new revenue recognition standard will replace all current U.S. GAAP guidance on this topic and eliminate all industry-specific guidance. The new revenue recognition standard provides a unified model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration for which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This guidance will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2017 and can be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. We are evaluating the impact of adopting these new accounting standards on our financial statements.

There have been no other recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the current year that are of significance, or potential significance, to us.

NOTE 4 – Income Taxes
 
As of September 30, 2014, the Company had a net operating loss (NOL) carryforward of approximately $13,030,000 adjusted for stock based compensation and certain other non-deductible items available to reduce future taxable income, if any. The NOL carryforward begins to expire in 2028, and fully expires in 2033. Because management is unable to determine that it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to realize the tax benefit related to the NOL carryforward, by having taxable income, a valuation allowance has been established as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 to reduce the net tax benefit asset value to zero.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and related notes included elsewhere herein.

Company Overview
 
We are a green chemistry company that collects and recycles waste glycol into a reusable product that is sold to third party customers in the automotive and industrial end-markets.  Our proprietary technology, GlyEco TechnologyTM, allows us to recycle all five major types of waste glycol into a virgin-quality product usable in any glycol application. We are dedicated to conserving natural resources, limiting liability for waste generators, safeguarding the environment, and creating valuable green products.
 
We currently operate seven processing centers in the United States. These processing centers are located in (1) Minneapolis, Minnesota, (2) Indianapolis, Indiana, (3) Lakeland, Florida, (4) Elizabeth, New Jersey (the “NJ Processing Center), (5) Rock Hill, South Carolina, (6) Tea, South Dakota, and (7) Landover, Maryland.
 
Our operations span several regions, but the physical collection and disposal of waste is very much a local business. The dynamics and opportunities differ in each of our markets. By combining local operating management with standardized business practices, we drive greater overall operating efficiency across the Company while maintaining day-to-day operating decisions at the local level, closest to the customer.
 
Our largest processing center is the NJ Processing Center, where we have recently completed full implementation of our GlyEco TechnologyTM. This processing center recycles multiple types of waste glycol feedstock. Recycled product from this processing center meets ASTM E1177 EG-1 or EG-2 specifications. The NJ Processing Center is strategically located to service high volume customers from multiple waste glycol creating industries.

We completed the first phase of technology and infrastructure upgrades to the NJ Processing Center in 2013. We began producing and selling ASTM E1177 Type EG-1 recycled glycol (“T1TM”) from multiple feedstock sources in August of 2013, and we continue to produce T1TM recycled glycol in commercial quantities. Customer response is very favorable and demand for T1TM recycled glycol exceeds our current processing capabilities.

In December 2013, we began the second phase of upgrades to the NJ Processing Center. Progress was delayed by inclement weather conditions as the region experienced multiple severe weather storms and transportation outages. These upgrades further expanded our glycol processing capacity and storage capability.

In June 2014, we completed additional physical construction, which included the expansion of the physical size of our operation, the installation of large-scale equipment, the installation of additional storage tanks, and the implementation of certain proprietary technology. Completion of construction has increased processing capabilities over 500% to an estimated run rate of 5 million gallons per year. These newly installed systems feature advanced pre-treatment, distillation and separation systems to improve end-product quality, and state-of-the-art post-treatment systems. Further expansion is designed into the systems with planned upgrades increasing production capacity to 12-15 million gallons.
 
 
12

 
In August 2014, we entered into an agreement with our Chief Technical Officer, Richard Geib, extending his term of service for an additional two years. Geib has played a key role in the development of our GlyEco TechnologyTM. He will lead further development of operations and the increase of production volumes at the NJ Processing Center. Mr. Geib will also recruit and train additional chemical engineering staff to facilitate domestic and international expansion of large-scale facilities like the NJ Processing Center.

In October 2014, we completed initial construction of an on-site chemical testing lab. We have begun to perform in-house testing of our production line, which has enabled the processing center to substantially increase our batch sizes to 20,000 - 30,000 gallons. The lab is a key component of our quality control and assurance program. We believe in-house testing will reduce the costs associated with third-party lab testing, allow greater precision in handling multiple types of material, and reduce turn around times.

The company plans to continue to building infrastructure at the NJ Processing Center through Q1 of 2015 to further increase T1TM processing capability and improve efficiencies.

The NJ Processing Center has operated significantly below optimal capacity while the critical components and equipment described above were modified, upgraded or replaced.
  
Our processing centers in Minnesota, Indiana, Florida, New Jersey, South Carolina, South Dakota, and Maryland offer waste glycol collection, recycling, and disposal services. These processing centers employ truck drivers to pick up waste glycols, transport the material to their recycling facilities, and recycle the waste glycol into fully formulated antifreeze, heat-transfer fluids, and recycled glycols. These products are resold into the market, often to the same customers that generate the waste.  We currently provide collection, recycling, and disposal services to over 3,500 waste glycol generators.
 
In addition to increasing our base of waste generating customers, the Company has completed upgrades to improve quality and expand processing capabilities and capacity at each of our processing centers. The following upgrades were made to our processing centers thru October 2014:

·  
Minnesota Processing Center relocated from a 2,000 square foot multi-tenant space to a 10,000 square feet stand-alone building. The company has completed initial upgrades at this new facility, including new circulation and vacuum pumps, piping, and other equipment. Processing capacity has increased by 248%.

·  
Indiana Processing Center has completed initial upgrades, including improved filtration systems, advanced pre-treatment equipment, increased storage capacity, and an additional delivery truck.  Processing capacity has increased by approximately 150%.

·  
Florida Processing Center has completed initial upgrades, including an improved vacuum distillation system, advanced post treatment equipment, and additional pumps and piping.  Processing capacity has increased 10,000 gallons. An additional collection truck was added to the business, allowing for expansion of our customer base. Secondary containment increased to 110% of state, local and U.S. required compliancy codes. Additional upgrades are planned to further expand production capabilities.

·  
South Carolina Processing Center completed additional upgrades to its distillation systems in October 2014, which increased its processing capacity by an additional 300%. Upgrades included installation of a tri-flow reflux nozzle, advanced pre-treatment equipment, advanced post-treatment equipment, and expanded tank capacity of 43,500 gallons. These technology and equipment upgrades enable the South Carolina Processing Center to process waste polyester by-product into high quality recycled material in commercial quantities.

·  
South Dakota Processing Center has completed initial upgrades, including a steam cooler, pumps, piping, and additional equipment. Processing capacity was increased by 14,000 gallons.

·  
Maryland Processing Center has completed additional upgrades, including substantial storage capacity and throughput upgrades to increase geographical reach over 400%. Upgrades included installing additional equipment, pumps, and piping. Production capacity has increased by approximately 26,000 gallons. Secondary containment increased to 110% of state, local, and U.S. required compliancy codes.

The above described expansion activities will provide the infrastructure and trained operations staff necessary for the Company to reach increased production levels in 2015.  Current operating results and margins are negatively impacted for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 by the costs associated with the increases in staffing, fixed production costs, operations testing, quality control procedure development and proprietary production process implementation necessary to support our future expected production levels.  These costs increase the average cost of producing recycled glycol without the associated increase in sales price that we anticipate once we achieve planned production levels of our T1TM product.  In addition, as forecasted production levels and sales are reached, average cost per unit produced will decline when fixed costs are spread over a larger number of units produced.

Going forward, in the United States, we intend to utilize our substantially increased production capacities to grow our customer base. We plan to increase production of T1TM recycled glycol by extending our waste glycol disposal services to new clients in underserved industries and increase our customer base for T1TM and T2TM products. Additionally, we plan to expand the number of waste automotive antifreeze generators we serve. Certain multi-regional and national automotive service chains are required to purchase ASTM E1177 EG-1 and EG-2 compliant material and have expressed an interest in our recycled products which meet these specifications. We intend to increase our customer base for fully formulated antifreeze and HVAC fluids that meet OEM specifications and standards. We will continue to expand recycling services into new geographic markets.  Further, we will continue to explore additional acquisitions and seek to create strategic alliances with companies producing or aggregating waste glycol.

In June 2014, we became registered as a waste glycol processor in the Canadian provinces of Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and New Brunswick. We have begun importing and processing waste glycol from these provinces and are actively pursuing opportunities to further expand our services in the Canadian market. We plan to grow our customer base in Canada to service additional waste antifreeze customers and expand our services into additional underserved markets.

We continue to explore several different strategic partnerships and business models to implement our GlyEco Technology™ in Europe, Canada, China, and elsewhere.

In October 2014, we entered in to a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding with Haldor Topsoe, a Danish catalysis and process technology firm. The two companies will collaborate to identify and develop waste glycol recycling facilities internationally.
 
Strategy

Our strategy is to increase production by continuing to expand our customer base, both in the regions we currently serve and in new regions across North America and abroad while realizing synergies from recent acquisitions.  We will expand our waste glycol disposal services and waste glycol recycling services to additional industries within our regions. The principal elements of our business strategy are to:
 
Integrate and Increase Profits. We intend to continue integrating and implementing best practices across our recent acquisitions and all aspects of our processing centers, including financial, staffing, technology, products and packaging, and compliance. Our customers and partners require high levels of regulatory and environmental compliance, which we intend to emphasize through employee training, facility policies and procedures, and ongoing analysis of operating performance. We have begun to implement standardized accounting, invoicing, and logistics management systems across our operations.
 
We intend to implement computerized customer relationship management, dispatch and inventory control systems in 2014. We have implemented the initial phase of our GlyEco® brand strategy and will continue to build brand equity via marketing initiatives. We believe all of these measures will increase the quality service we can provide to customers, increase the visibility of the Company, and maximize profitability.

Expand Feedstock Supply Volume. We intend to expand our feedstock supply volume by growing our relationships with direct waste generators and indirect waste collectors. We plan to increase the volume we collect from direct waste generators in the following ways: stress segregation from other liquid wastes and a focus on waste glycol recovery to our existing customers; attract new waste generator customers by displacing incumbent waste collectors through product quality and customer service value propositions; and attract new waste generators in territories that we do not currently serve. We plan to increase the volume we collect from indirect waste collectors by implementing specific sales programs and increasing personnel dedicated to sales generation.
 
Expand the New Jersey Processing Center. We have completed the first phase of technology installation and are producing Type 1 compliant recycled glycol for commercial use. We have begun the second phase of expansion to our processing capacity in order to meet customer demand for larger quantities of our T1TM recycled glycol and to process additional types of glycol. This includes an investment in additional equipment and build-out services that leverage the existing facilities while increasing capacity, improving cost efficiencies and increasing throughput. We believe this expansion will, over time, increase the margins we obtain on our products and the amount of sales.
 
Pursue Selective Strategic Relationships or Acquisitions. We intend to grow our market share by consolidating feedstock supply through partnering with waste collection companies, leveraging recently acquired relationships, or acquiring other companies with glycol recycling operations. We plan to focus on partnerships and acquisitions that not only add revenue and profitability to our financials but those that have long-term growth potential and fit with the overall goals of the Company.

New Market Development. We have completed the initial processing center expansions necessary to diversify our customer base into new markets. During 2013, we began processing waste glycols from the textile, HVAC, and airline industries at some of our processing centers. We intend to continue this growth into new markets and underserved industries. We plan to implement additional capacity at our processing centers to allow them to process additional types of waste glycol streams and therefore to serve any prevailing new markets in their respective geographic areas.

Enter International Markets. We intend to explore opportunities to expand operations and technology into international markets. We have developed several relationships in markets where we believe glycol recycling is an underserved market, including Europe, Asia, Canada, Mexico, and South America. We believe that moving into international markets will further establish the Company as a leader in glycol recycling and will increase profitability.
 
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
We have identified in Note 2 - "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the Financial Statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, certain critical accounting policies that affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.  Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to areas that require a significant level of judgment or are otherwise subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. These areas include carrying amounts and useful lives of intangible assets, inventory, fair value of assets acquired in business combinations, stock-based compensation expense, and deferred taxes. We base our estimates on historical experience, our observance of trends in particular areas, and information or valuations and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that may not be readily apparent from other sources. Actual amounts could differ significantly from amounts previously estimated.
 
We believe that of our significant accounting policies, the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity:

Going Concern

The going concern basis of presentation assumes we will continue in operation throughout the next fiscal year and into the foreseeable future and will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  As discussed below, certain conditions currently exist which raise substantial doubt upon the validity of this assumption.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the uncertainty.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As of September 30, 2014, the Company has yet to achieve profitable operations and is dependent on our ability to raise capital from stockholders or other sources to sustain operations.  Ultimately, we hope to achieve viable profitable operations when operating efficiencies can be realized from the facilities added in 2013. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. In their report dated April 15, 2014, our independent registered public accounting firm included an emphasis-of-matter paragraph with respect to our financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013 concerning the Company’s assumption that we will continue as a going concern.

Management's plans to address these matters include raising additional financing through offering our shares of capital stock in private and/or public offerings of our securities and through debt financing if available and needed. The Company plans to become profitable by realizing synergies and cost reduction opportunities associated with acquisitions made in 2013 and 2014, upgrading the capacity and capabilities at our existing operating facilities, continuing to implement our patent-pending technology in international markets, and acquiring profitable glycol recycling companies, which are looking to take advantage of the Company's public company status and improve their profitability through a combined synergy. The Company intends to expand customer and supplier bases once operational capacity and capabilities have been upgraded.
 
Collectability of Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from customers from sales of products and is recorded net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for uncollectible accounts totaled $83,840 and $47,927 as of September 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, respectively. In order to record our accounts receivable at their net realizable value, we assess their collectability. A considerable amount of judgment is required in order to make this assessment, based on a detailed analysis of the aging of our receivables, the credit worthiness of our customers and our historical bad debts and other adjustments. If economic, industry or specific customer business trends worsen beyond earlier estimates, we increase the allowance for uncollectible accounts by recording additional expense in the period in which we become aware of the new conditions.
 
The majority of our customers are based in the United States. The economic conditions in the United States can significantly impact the recoverability of our accounts receivable.
 

Inventory
 
Inventory consists primarily of used glycol to be recycled, recycled glycol for resale and supplies used in the recycling process that, in each case, are stated at the lower of cost or market approximating cost on a first in, first out basis. Costs include purchase costs, fleet and fuel costs, direct labor, transportation costs and production related costs. In determining whether inventory valuation issues exist, we consider various factors including estimated quantities of slow-moving inventory by reviewing on-hand quantities, historical sales and production usage. Shifts in market trend and conditions, changes in customer preferences or the loss of one or more significant customers are factors that could affect the value of our inventory. These factors could make our estimates of inventory valuation differ from actual results.
 
Long-Lived Assets

We periodically evaluate whether events and circumstances have occurred that may warrant revision of the estimated useful life of property and equipment or whether the remaining balance of property and equipment, or other long-lived assets should be evaluated for possible impairment. Instances that may lead to an impairment include the following: (i) a significant decrease in the market price of a long-lived asset group; (ii) a significant adverse change in the extent or manner in which a long-lived asset or asset group is being used or in its physical condition; (iii) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate that could affect the value of a long-lived asset or asset group, including an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; (iv) an accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of a long-lived asset or asset group; (v) a current-period operating or cash flow loss combined with a history of operating or cash flow losses or a projection or forecast that demonstrates continuing losses associated with the use of a long-lived asset or asset group; or (vi) a current expectation that, more likely than not, a long-lived asset or asset group will be sold or otherwise disposed of significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life.

Upon recognition of an event, as previously described, we use an estimate of the related undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest, over the remaining life of the property and equipment and long-lived assets in assessing their recoverability. We measure impairment loss as the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset(s) exceeds the fair value of the asset(s). We primarily employ the two following methodologies for determining the fair value of a long-lived asset: (i) the amount at which the asset could be bought or sold in a current transaction between willing parties; or (ii) the present value of expected future cash flows grouped at the lowest level for which there are identifiable independent cash flows.

We use the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model to estimate the value of options and warrants issued to employees and consultants as compensation for services rendered to the Company.  This model uses estimates of volatility, risk free interest rate and the expected term of the options or warrants, along with the current market price of the underlying stock, to estimate the value of the options and warrants on the date of grant.  In addition, the calculation of compensation costs requires that the Company estimate the number of awards that will be forfeited during the vesting period.  The fair value of the stock-based awards is amortized over the vesting period of the awards.  For stock-based awards that vest based on performance conditions, expense is recognized when it is probable that the conditions will be met.

Assumptions used in the calculation were determined as follows:
 
·  
expected term is determined under the plain vanilla method using an average of the contractual term and vesting period of the award as appropriate statistical data required to properly estimate the expected term was not available;
·  
expected volatility is measured using the historical daily changes in the market price of our stock based on the closing price per share reported on the OTCQB;
·  
risk-free interest rate is used to approximate the implied yield on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bonds with a remaining maturity equal to the expected term of the awards; and
·  
forfeitures are based on the history of cancellations of options granted by us and our analysis of potential future forfeitures.
 
 
Impairment of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

As of September 30, 2014, goodwill and net intangible assets recorded on our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet aggregated to $4,349,613 (of which $835,295 is goodwill that is not subject to amortization).  We perform an annual impairment review in the third quarter of each fiscal year. In accordance with ASC Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, we perform goodwill impairment testing at least annually, unless indicators of impairment exist in interim periods. The impairment test for goodwill uses a two-step approach. Step one compares the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with goodwill to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, step two must be performed. Step two compares the carrying value of the reporting unit to the fair value of all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit (including any unrecognized intangibles) as if the reporting unit was acquired in a business combination. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess.  To date, we have not recorded an impairment of goodwill.
 
In addition to the required goodwill impairment analysis, we also review the recoverability and estimated useful life of our net intangibles with finite lives when an indicator of impairment exists. When we acquire intangible assets, management determines the estimated useful life, expected residual value if any and appropriate allocation method of the asset value based on the information available at the time. Reaching a determination on useful life requires significant judgments and assumptions regarding the future effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, other economic factors (such as the stability of the industry, known technological advances, legislative action that results in an uncertain or changing regulatory environment, and expected changes in distribution channels), the level of required maintenance expenditures, and the expected lives of other related groups of assets.  Our assumptions with respect to expected future cash flows relating to intangible assets is impacted by our assessment of (i) the proprietary nature of our recycling process combined with (ii) the technological advances we have made allowing us to recycle all five major types of waste glycol into a virgin-quality product usable in any glycol application along with (iii) the fact that the market is currently served by primarily smaller local processors.  If our assumptions and related estimates change in the future, or if we change our reporting structure or other events and circumstances change, we may be required to record impairment charges of goodwill and intangible assets in future periods and we may need to change our estimated useful life of amortizing intangible assets. Any impairment charges that we may take in the future or any change to amortization expense could be material to our results of operations and financial condition.
 
Accounting for Income Taxes

We use the asset and liability method to account for income taxes. Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against net deferred tax assets. In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to estimate income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This process involves estimating the actual current tax liability together with assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as deferred revenue, depreciation on property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, goodwill, and losses for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets, which include tax loss carry-forwards, and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheets. We then assess the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income, and to the extent that recovery is not likely or there is insufficient operating history, a valuation allowance is established. To the extent a valuation allowance is established or increased in a period, we include an adjustment within the tax provision of our consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we had established a full valuation allowance for all deferred tax assets.

As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we did not recognize any assets or liabilities relative to uncertain tax positions, nor do we anticipate any significant unrecognized tax benefits will be recorded during the next 12 months. Any interest or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits is recognized in income tax expense. Since there are no unrecognized tax benefits as a result of tax positions taken, there are no accrued penalties or interest.
 
Results of Operations
 
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013

Net Sales
 
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, Net Sales were $4,541,822, compared to $3,813,747 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $728,075, or 19%. The increase in Net Sales was due to increased production capabilities and corresponding sales from new facilities added in 2013.  The volume of recycled glycol sold increased by approximately 19% while the average price increased by approximately 1% as compared to the same period in the prior year.  New facilities added in 2013 accounted for 75% of the revenues for the third first three quarters of 2014 and 78% of the gallons produced for the third first three quarters of 2014.
 

Cost of Goods Sold

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, our Costs of Good Sold was $4,760,389, compared to $3,310,686 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $1,449,703, or approximately 44%. The increase in Cost of Goods Sold was due to the associated Cost of Goods Sold from increased production capabilities from new facilities added in 2013.  In addition, the costs associated with the increases in staffing, fixed production costs, operations testing, quality control procedure development and proprietary production process implementation necessary to support our future expected production levels increased Cost of Goods Sold during the period. Cost of Goods Sold consists of all costs of sales, including costs to purchase, transport, store and process the raw materials, and overhead related to product manufacture and sale. We sometimes receive raw materials (used antifreeze) at no cost to the Company, which can have an impact on our reported consolidated gross profit.
 
Gross Profit

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, we realized a gross loss of $(218,567), compared to a gross profit of $503,061 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, a decrease of $721,628, or 143%. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to higher operating costs to support future T1TM production prior to completion of production throughput at our New Jersey Processing Center of T1TM material. Our gross profit margin for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, was approximately (5)%, compared to approximately 13% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013.  We expect our gross profit margin to increase as construction in progress is finalized, output testing is completed and T1TM production and sales begin at our New Jersey Processing Center. Current operating results and margins were negatively impacted for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 by the increased costs discussed above.  These costs increase the average cost of producing recycled glycol without the associated increase is sales price that we anticipate once we achieve planned production levels of our T1TM product.  We have forecasted that T1TM production capacity will be 12 to 15 million gallons at an expected gross margin in excess of 30% once production is fully operational at our New Jersey Processing Center.
 
Operating Expenses
 
For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, operating expenses increased to $3,731,733 from $2,498,654 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $1,233,079 or approximately 49%.  Operating expenses consist of Stock-Based Compensation, Salaries and Wages,  and General and Administrative Expenses. This increase is attributable to our expansion through acquisition and the establishment of the necessary infrastructure for our current and planned future scope of operations.

Stock-Based Compensation consists of options issued to consultants and employees in consideration for services provided to the Company. Share-Based Compensation increased to $1,498,905for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, from $839,210 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $659,695, or 78%.   The increase is due to the issuance of 712,172 compensatory options and 1,350,000 compensatory warrants to reward and provide an incentive to our consultants and employees and align their interest with our shareholders while conserving cash for expanding operations and investing activities.
 
Salaries and Wages consist of wages and the related taxes.  Salaries and Wages increased to $757,739 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, from $545,117 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $212,622, or 39%. The increase is due to the hiring of additional employees attributable to the new operations and related administrative support for activities added in 2013.
 
General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses consist of general operational costs of our business. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, G&A Expenses increased to $1,475,089 from $1,114,327 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $360,726, or approximately 32%.  This increase is primarily due to the depreciation and amortization of assets relating to facilities added in 2013, higher costs of the year-end audit arising from our expanded scope of operations and the filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-1, and the associated costs of building out our infrastructure to support future growth of the Company.
 
Other Income and Expenses

For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, Other Income and Expenses decreased to $135,764 from $152,525 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing a decrease of $16,761, or approximately 11%. Other Income and Expenses consist primarily of interest income, and interest expense.
 
Interest Income consists of the interest earned on the Company’s corporate bank account.  Interest Income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, decreased to $1,027 from $1,320 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing a decrease of $293 or approximately 22%.  The decrease was due to less cash being held in interest-bearing accounts.
 
 
Interest Expense consists of interest on the Company’s outstanding indebtedness.   For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, Interest Expense decreased to $136,791 from $153,845 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing a decrease of $17,054 or approximately 11%. The decrease was mainly due to interest expense no longer incurred from the convertible note payable. 
 
Three Months Ended September 30, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2013

Net Sales
 
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, Net Sales were $1,281,791 compared to $1,163,607 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $118,184, or 10%. The increase in Net Sales was due to increased production capabilities and corresponding sales from new facilities added in 2013. The volume of recycled glycol sold decreased by approximately 10%, with a corresponding increase in the volume of gallons in ending inventory, while the average price increased by approximately 8% as compared to the same period in the prior year.  New facilities added in 2013 accounting for 66% of the revenues for the third quarter of 2014 and 60% of the gallons produced for the third quarter of 2014.
  
Cost of Goods Sold

For the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, our Costs of Good Sold was $1,469,709, compared to $1,203,240 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $266,469, or approximately 22%. The increase in Cost of Goods Sold was due to the associated Cost of Goods Sold from increased production capabilities from new facilities added in 2013.  In addition, the costs associated with the increases in staffing, fixed production costs, operations testing, quality control procedure development and proprietary production process implementation necessary to support our future expected production levels increased Cost of Goods Sold during the period. Cost of Goods Sold consists of all costs of sales, including costs to purchase, transport, store and process the raw materials, and overhead related to product manufacture and sale. We sometimes receive raw materials (used antifreeze) at no cost to the Company, which can have an impact on our reported consolidated gross profit.
 
Gross Profit
 
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, we realized a gross loss of $(187,918), compared to a gross loss of ($39,633) for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, a decrease of $148,285, or 374%. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to continued higher operating costs to support future T1TM production prior to completion of production through put at our New Jersey Processing Center of T1TM material. Current operating results and margins were negatively impacted for the three months ended September 30, 2014 by the increased costs discussed above.  These costs increase the average cost of producing recycled glycol without the associated increase is sales price that we anticipate once we achieve planned production levels of our T1TM product.  Our gross profit margin for the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, was approximately (15)%, compared to approximately (3)% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013.  We expect our gross profit margin to increase as production and sales of T1TM volumes increase at our New Jersey Processing Center.
 
Operating Expenses
 
For the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, operating expenses increased to $1,552,153 from $1,382,439 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $169,714, or approximately 12%.  Operating expenses consist of Stock-Based Compensation, Salaries and Wages, and General and Administrative Expenses. This increase is attributable to our expansion through acquisition and the establishment of the necessary infrastructure for our current and planned future scope of operations.

Stock-Based Compensation consists of options and warrants issued to consultants and employees in consideration for services provided to the Company. Share-Based Compensation decreased to $787,373 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, from $839,210 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing a decrease of $51,837, or 6%.   The decrease is due to the lower fair value of awards, due to our lower share price, issued during the three months ended September 2014 as compared to the fair values for awards during the same period in 2013.  During the quarter ended September 30, 2014, we issued 175,000 compensatory options and 1,350,000 compensatory warrants to reward and provide an incentive to our consultants and employees and align their interest with our shareholders while conserving cash for expanding operations and investing activities.
 
Salaries and Wages consist of wages and the related taxes.  Salaries and Wages increased to $242,585 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, from $196,560 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $46,025, or 23%. The increase is due to the hiring of additional employees attributable to the new operations and related administrative support for activities added in 2013.
 

General and Administrative (G&A) Expenses consist of general operational costs of our business. For the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, G&A Expenses increased to $522,195 from $346,669 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $175,526, or approximately 51%.  This increase is primarily due to the depreciation and amortization of assets relating to facilities added in 2013, higher costs of the year-end audit arising from our expanded scope of operations and the filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-1, and the associated costs of building out our infrastructure to support future growth of the Company.

Other Income and Expenses

For the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, Other Income and Expenses decreased to $45,965 from $47,683 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing a decrease of $1,718, or approximately 4%.

Interest Expense consists of interest on the Company’s outstanding indebtedness.   For the three-month period ended September 30, 2014, Interest Expense decreased to $46,348 from $48,046 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013, representing a decrease of $1,698 or approximately 4%. The decrease was mainly due to a decline in interest expense per the amortization schedule of the capital lease. 
 
Adjusted EBITDA
 
Presented below is the non-GAAP financial measure representing earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock compensation (which we refer to as “Adjusted EBITDA”). Adjusted EBITDA should be viewed as supplemental to, and not as an alternative for, net income (loss) and cash flows from operations calculated in accordance with GAAP.
 
Adjusted EBITDA is used by our management as an additional measure of our Company’s performance for purposes of business decision-making, including developing budgets, managing expenditures, and evaluating potential acquisitions or divestitures. Period-to-period comparisons of Adjusted EBITDA help our management identify additional trends in our Company’s financial results that may not be shown solely by period-to-period comparisons of net income (loss) and cash flows from operations. In addition, we may use Adjusted EBITDA in the incentive compensation programs applicable to many of our employees in order to evaluate our Company’s performance. Further, we believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in their analysis of our results and helps investors make comparisons between our company and other companies that may have different capital structures, different effective income tax rates and tax attributes, different capitalized asset values and/or different forms of employee compensation. Our management recognizes that Adjusted EBITDA has inherent limitations because of the excluded items, particularly those items that are recurring in nature. In order to compensate for those limitations, management also reviews the specific items that are excluded from Adjusted EBITDA, but included in net income (loss), as well as trends in those items. The amounts of those items are set forth, for the applicable periods, in the reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss below.

Liquidity & Capital Resources; Going Concern
 
We assess our liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. Significant factors affecting the management of liquidity are cash flows generated from operating activities, capital expenditures, and acquisitions of businesses and technologies.  Cash provided from financing continues to be the Company’s primary source of funds. We believe that we can raise adequate funds through issuance of equity or debt as necessary to continue to support our planned expansion.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, net cash used by operating activities was $3,421,760 and $1,313,819, respectively.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the company used $2,521,266 in cash for investing activities, compared to the $1,882,248 used in the prior year’s period.  These amounts were comprised entirely of capital expenditures for equipment and construction in progress.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, we received $3,008,683 and $8,312,832, respectively, in cash from financing activities.
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As of September 30, 2014, the Company has yet to achieve profitable operations and is dependent on our ability to raise capital from stockholders or other sources to sustain operations and to ultimately achieve profitable operations when operating efficiencies can be realized from facilities added in 2013.   Our plans to address these matters include, realizing synergies and cost efficiencies with prior year acquisitions, raising additional financing through offering our shares of the Company’s capital stock in private and/or public offerings of our securities and through debt financing if available and needed. There can be no assurances, however, that the Company will be able to obtain any financings or that such financings will be sufficient to sustain our business operations or permit the Company to implement our intended business strategy.  The Company plans to become profitable by upgrading the capacity and capabilities at our existing operating facilities, continuing to implement our patent-pending technology in international markets, and acquiring profitable glycol recycling companies. During 2014, we have already realized significant increases in production capacity at some of our facilities.  We intend to expand customer and supplier bases once operational capacity and capabilities have been upgraded and fully integrated.
 
In their report dated April 15, 2014, our independent registered public accounting firm included an emphasis-of-matter paragraph with respect to our financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 concerning the Company’s assumption that we will continue as a going concern.  Our ability to continue as a going concern is an issue raised as a result of current working capital requirements and recurring losses from operations.
 
The Company does not currently have sufficient capital to sustain expected operations and acquisitions for the next 12 months. To date, the Company has financed our operations and investing activities through private sales of our securities exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company raised $3,134,314 from the exercise of warrants by existing shareholders.
 
Frenkel Convertible Note
 
On March 14, 2014, the Series AA Preferred Stock was converted under the Conversion Agreement into 2,342,750 shares of Common Stock at a price of $1.02 per share.  As inducement for the redemption of the Series AA Preferred Stock, an additional 262,763 shares of Common Stock were issued at a price of $1.02 per share.  Additionally, per the terms of the Conversion Agreement, a three-year warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock was issued for each share of Common Stock received in the conversion with each such warrant having an exercise price of $1.00; therefore, a warrant to purchase 2,605,513 shares of Common Stock was issued in connection with the conversion.  For a more detailed discussion of the Convertible Note and Series AA Preferred Stock, please see note 10 in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a- 15(e) and 15d- 15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, for the reasons discussed below, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.
 
Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, that creates a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected in a timely manner. The material weakness related to our company was due to not having the adequate personnel to address the reporting requirements of a public company and to fully analyze and account for our transactions. We do not believe that this material weakness has resulted in deficient financial reporting because we have worked through the reporting process to review our transactions to assure compliance with professional standards.
 
Accordingly, while we identified a material weakness in our system of internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2014, we believe that we have taken reasonable steps to ascertain that the financial information contained in this report is in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We believe we have made progress towards remediating the previously identified material weakness by retaining a new Corporate Controller with public company experience in February 2014 to assure financial reporting compliance in the future and to assist the Chief Financial Officer.
 
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2014, we retained a new Corporate Controller with public company experience to help make progress towards remediating the material weakness identified above.
 
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
 
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, misstatements, errors, and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been or will be prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls also can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, internal controls may become inadequate as a result of changes in conditions, or through the deterioration of the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
 
 
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings.

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business.  However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or operating results.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.

Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company issued unregistered securities as follows:
 
On January 24, 2014, the Company issued an aggregate of 24,167 shares of Common Stock to one non-accredited investor for the cashless exercise of 45,000 stock options at a weighted average exercise price of $0.72 per share. The closing price on the OTCQB Market on the day of exercise was $1.08 per share of Common Stock. The stock options exercised vested immediately upon issuance and were converted at a rate of one share of Common Stock for each stock option exercised. The shares were issued pursuant to Section 4(2) and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder because the investor had sufficient sophistication and knowledge of the Company and the financing transaction, and the sale did not involve any form of general solicitation or general advertising.  The investor made investment representations that the shares were taken for investment purposes and not with a view to resale.
