The December 31, 2013 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from the audited  consolidated balance sheet included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for such year as filed on June 20, 2014.

History of the Company

STW Resources Holding Corp. (“STW”) or the “Company”, f/k/a Woozyfly Inc. and STW Global Inc. is a corporation formed to utilize state of the art water reclamation technologies to reclaim fresh water from highly contaminated oil and gas hydraulic fracture flow-back salt water that is produced in conjunction with the production of oil and gas. STW has been working to establish contracts with oil and gas operators for the deployment of multiple water reclamation systems throughout Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana and the Appalachian Basin of Pennsylvania and West Virginia. STW, in conjunction with energy producers, operators, various state agencies and legislators, is working to create an efficient and economical solution to this complex problem. The Company is also evaluating the deployment of similar technology in the municipal wastewater industry.

As of late June 2014, STW has expanded its operations in the water reclamation services business and has formed a new company called STW Water, Inc. The primary sources of income for this Company are consulting on water projects and the sale of products and equipment for water purification. All sales to date have been on a net 30 basis. Revenues for the three month period ended September 30, 2014 were from water reclamation consulting services and products.

The Company’s operations are located in the United States of America and the principal executive offices are located at 3424 South County Road 1192, Midland, Texas 79706.

Consolidation policy

The condensed consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries: STW Water Process & Technologies LLC, STW Oilfield Construction LLC, STW Pipeline Maintenance Construction, LLC, and its 75% owned subsidiary STW Energy, LLC. The condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2013, include STW Resources Holding Corp, STW Oilfield Construction LLC, STW Pipeline Maintenance Construction, LLC, and STW Energy, LLC as the other subsidiaries noted above were not established during the quarterly period ended September 30, 2013. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company also consolidates any variable interest entities (VIEs), of which it is the primary beneficiary, as defined. The Company does not have any VIEs that need to be consolidated at this time. When the Company does not have a controlling interest in an entity, but exerts a significant influence over the entity, the Company would apply the equity method of accounting.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications were made to the prior period condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. There was no change to the previously reported net loss.

Non-Controlling interest

On June 25, 2013, the Company invested in a 75% limited liability company (“LLC”) interest in STW Energy Services, LLC (“STW Energy”). The non-controlling interest in STW Energy is held by Crown Financial, LLC, a Texas Limited Liability Company (“Crown” or “Crown Financial”). As of December 31, 2013, $2,500 was recorded as the equity of the non-controlling interest in our consolidated balance sheet representing the third-party investment in STW Energy, with a net loss attributable to non-controlling interests of $48,424 for the year ended December 31, 2013. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2014, a net loss attributable to the non-controlling interest of $166,294 was incurred. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, a net income attributable to the non-controlling interest of $12,998 was incurred. As of September 30, 2014, the net deficit interest in the subsidiary held by the non-controlling interest is $212,218.

Going Concern and Management Plans

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $35,997,228 as of September 30, 2014, and as of that date was delinquent in payment of $2,448,509 of sales, payroll taxes, and penalties. As of September 30, 2014, $2,967,305 of notes payable is in default. Since its inception in January 2008 management has raised equity and debt financing of approximately $15,000,000 to fund operations and provide working capital. The cash resources of the Company are insufficient to meet its planned business objectives without additional financing. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management has undertaken steps as part of a plan to improve operations with the goal of sustaining our operations for the next twelve months and beyond. These steps include (a) raising additional capital and/or obtaining financing; (b) executing contracts with oil and gas operators and municipal utility districts; and (c) controlling overhead and expenses.  

 
-7-

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital and to ultimately achieve sustainable revenues and profitable operations. At September 30, 2014, the Company had $281,931 of cash on hand; however, the Company raised an additional $1,055,750 via revenue participation notes on our new Upton project during the period October 1, 2014 through December 22, 2014, to sustain its operations. Management expects that the current funds on hand will not be sufficient to continue operations through December 31, 2014. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through the issuance of debt or equity securities for cash to operate our business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, and that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case or equity financing.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Use of Estimates

Condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Among other things, management has estimated the collectability of its accounts receivable, the valuation of long lived assets, the assumptions used to calculate its derivative liabilities, and equity instruments issued for financing and compensation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Accounts Receivable
 
Trade accounts receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts consists primarily of receivables from oil & gas services fees. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical losses and current economic conditions. On a continuing basis, management analyzes delinquent receivables, and once these receivables are determined to be uncollectible, they are written off either against an existing allowance account or as a direct charge to the condensed consolidated statement of operations. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, the Company has determined that an allowance for doubtful accounts is required, but has determined it to be immaterial.

Loan Discounts

The Company amortizes loan discounts under the effective interest method.

Concentration of Credit Risk
 
A financial instrument that potentially subjects the Company to concentration of credit risk is cash. The Company places its cash with financial institutions deemed by management to be of high credit quality. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) provides basic deposit coverage with limits to $250,000 per owner per institution. At September 30, 2014, there were no account balances per institution that would have exceeded the $250,000 insurance limit.
 
The Company anticipates entering into long-term fixed-price contracts for its services with select oil and gas producers and municipal utilities. The Company will control credit risk related to accounts receivable through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures.

As of September 30, 2014, three vendors accounted for 12%, 9% and 7% of total accounts payable. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, three vendors accounted for 81% of total purchases. During the three months ending September 30, 2014 three vendors totaled 76% of purchases. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, one vendor accounted for 100% of purchases and two vendors accounted for 65% of total purchases, respectively.

As of September 30, 2014, three customers accounted for 38%, 16% and 7% of accounts receivable. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, three customers accounted for 32%, 12% and 9% of net revenues. During the three months ended September 30, 2014, three customers accounted for 42%, 8% and 3% of net revenues. As of September 30, 2013, two customers accounted for 79% and 12% of accounts receivable. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, one customer accounted for 42% and 79% of total revenues, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
 “Fair value” is defined as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, notes payable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and derivative liabilities. The carrying value for all such instruments except convertible notes payable and derivative liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the instruments. Our derivative liabilities are recorded at fair value (see Note 5).

We determine the fair value of our financial instruments based on a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements under which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of observable or unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect management’s use of assumptions to external and internal information. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. These two types of inputs have created the following fair-value hierarchy:
 
Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical securities. Currently, we do not have any items classified as Level 1.

Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Currently, we do not have any items classified as Level 2.

Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and involve management judgment. We use the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model (“Black-Scholes”) to determine the fair value of the financial instruments.

If the inputs used to measure fair value fall in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, a financial security’s hierarchy level is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Our derivative liabilities consist of embedded conversion features on debt, price protection features on warrants, and derivatives due to insufficient authorized shares to settle outstanding contracts which are carried at fair value, and are classified as Level 3 liabilities. We use Black-Scholes to determine the fair value of these instruments (see Note 5).

Management has used the simplified Black Scholes model to estimate fair value of derivative instruments. Management believes that as a result of the relatively short term nature of the warrants and convertibility features, a lattice model would not result in a materially different valuation.

Accounting for Derivatives Liabilities

The Company evaluates stock warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for. Financial instruments classified as derivative instrument is marked-to-market at each balance sheet date and recorded as an asset or a liability with the change in fair value adjusted through the statement of operations. In the event that the fair value is recorded as an asset or liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other expense. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Financial instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification to a liability account at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.

Certain of the Company’s embedded conversion features on debt, price protection features on outstanding common stock warrants are treated as derivatives for accounting purposes. The common stock purchase warrants were not issued with the intent of effectively hedging any future cash flow, fair value of any asset or liability. The warrants do not qualify for hedge accounting, and as such, all future changes in the fair value of these warrants are recognized currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised, expire or the related rights have been waived. These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market. The Company estimates the fair value of these warrants and embedded conversion features as derivative liabilities contracts using Black-Scholes (see Note 5).
 
Equity Instruments Issued to Non-Employees for Acquiring Goods or Services
 
Issuances of the Company’s common stock for acquiring goods or services are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued to consultants or vendors is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance to earn the equity instruments is reached (a “performance commitment” which would include a penalty considered to be of a magnitude that is a sufficiently large disincentive for nonperformance) or (ii) the date at which performance is complete. When it is appropriate for the Company to recognize the cost of a transaction during financial reporting periods prior to the measurement date, for purposes of recognition of costs during those periods, the equity instrument is measured at the then-current fair values at each of those interim financial reporting dates.

Long-lived Assets and Intangible Assets

The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made.

The Company had no such asset impairments during the three and nine months ending September 30, 2014 or 2013. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s products and services under development will continue. Either of these could result in future impairment of long-lived assets.

Revenue Recognition

During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company entered into Master Services Agreements (“MSA”) with several major oil & gas companies. These MSAs contract the Company to provide a range of oil & gas support services including oilfield site construction and maintenance, pipeline maintenance, oil rig cleaning, site preparation, energy support services, and other oil & gas support services. The Company bills these customers pursuant to purchase orders issued under the MSAs. The revenues billed include hourly labor fees and equipment usage fees. The Company recognized revenues from these contracts as the services are performed under the customer purchase orders and no further performance obligations exist, generally in the form of a customer approval. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company recognized $13,837,611 of revenues from these services contracts, which included $143,378 revenues from related parties. During the three months ending September 30, 2014 the Company realized revenue of $4,633,535 from services contracts, which included $66,000 of the service revenue was from related parties.

Business Segments
 
The Company has three reportable segments, (1) water reclamation services, (2) oil & gas services and (3) corporate operations. Segment information is reported in Note 9.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
 
The Company maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets. The Company established a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset in the future. Changes in circumstances, such as the Company generating taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset. Any reduction in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimate.
 
The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had no accrual for interest or penalties on its condensed consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Common Stock and Common Stock Warrants Issued to Employees

The Company uses the fair value recognition provision of ASC 718, “Stock Compensation,” which requires the Company to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of such instruments. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of any equity instruments on the grant date.

At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had no grants of employee common stock options or warrants outstanding.

Loss per Share
 
The basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. The diluted net loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted average number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. Diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share due to the lack of dilutive items. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had 15,564,926 and 17,058,465 dilutive shares outstanding, respectively, which have been excluded as their effect is anti-dilutive.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. The cost of property and equipment is depreciated or amortized on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
 
Computer equipment and software
 
3 years
Furniture
 
3 years
Machinery
 
3-5 years

NOTE 3 – RECEIVABLE FROM FACTOR, NET OF UNAPPLIED CUSTOMER CREDITS

Accounts Purchase Agreement – Crown Financial, LLC

On June 21 2013, STW Energy Services, LLC (“STW Energy”) entered into an accounts purchase facility with Crown Financial, LLC, pursuant to an Account Purchase Agreement (the “Accounts Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to the Texas Finance Code.

The Accounts Purchase Agreement shall continue until terminated by either party upon 30 days written notice. The Accounts Purchase Agreement is secured by a security interest in substantially all of STW Energy’s assets pursuant to the terms of a Security Agreement. Under the terms of the Accounts Purchase Agreement, Crown Financial may, at its sole discretion, purchase certain of the STW Energy’s eligible accounts receivable. Upon any acquisition of an account receivable, Crown will advance to STW Energy up to 80% of the face amount of the account receivable; provided however, that based upon when each invoice gets paid, Crown shall pay STW Energy a rebate percentage of between 0-18.5% of the related invoice. Each account receivable purchased by Crown will be subject to a discount fee of 1.5% of the gross face amount of such purchased account for each 30 day period (or part thereof) the purchased account remains unpaid. Crown will generally have full recourse against STW Energy in the event of nonpayment of any such purchased account. As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, there were no accounts receivables subject to recourse due to nonpayment of the purchased accounts.

The Accounts Purchase Agreement contains covenants that are customary for agreements of this type and appoints Crown as attorney in fact for various activities associated with the purchased accounts receivable, including opening STW Energy’s mail, endorsing its name on related notes and payments, and filing liens against related third parties. The failure to satisfy covenants under the Accounts Purchase Agreement or the occurrence of other specified events that constitute an event of default could result in the acceleration of the repayment obligations of the Company or Crown enforcing its rights under the Security Agreement and take possession of the collateral. The Accounts Purchase Agreement contains provisions relating to events of default that are customary for agreements of this type.

14% Convertible Notes

Between November 2011 and September 2012, the Company issued a series of 14% convertible notes payable to accredited investors. The Company also issued 3,361,312 two year warrants to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $1.20 per share. These notes plus interest are convertible into 5,743,480 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The Company valued the warrants and the embedded conversion feature at inception using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the following variables: annual dividend yield of 0%; expected life of 2 years; risk free rate of return of 0.17% - 0.33%; expected volatility of 100%. The estimated fair value of the warrants was $81,656 and the embedded conversion feature was $35,546 at issuance and was recorded as a derivative liability at such time in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The warrants and embedded conversion feature are included in the derivative liabilities account each reporting period as the Company has insufficient authorized shares to settle outstanding contracts (see Note 5). On July 12, 2013, the Company increased its share authorization to 41,666,667 shares (as retroactively restated, per the reverse stock split of 1 for 6), adjusted the gain or loss on the change in fair value through the statement of operations and then reclassified this derivative liability to equity due to the availability of sufficient authorized shares to settle these outstanding contracts.

As of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the aggregate principal balances of these notes are $2,326,517 and $2,904,736, respectively. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2014, the Company converted principal and accrued interest of $983,437 in exchange for 1,648,267 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company also issued 2,628 shares for the extension of a note valued at $3,628. The value of the stock issued was $812,607 resulting in additional interest expense of $214,234 upon the conversion of convertible debt. During the three month period ended September 30, 2014, the Company converted principal and accrued interest of $9,568 in exchange for 19,933 shares of the Company’s common stock. Additionally, the Company issued 2,628 shares for the extension of a note valued at $3,628. The value of the stock issued was $31,270 resulting in additional interest expense of $21,702.

12% Convertible Notes
 
Between April 2009 and November 2010, the Company issued a series of 12% notes payable to accredited investors that matured on November 30, 2011 and are currently in default. At September 30, 2014, the remaining balance is $100,000. The Company also issued 273,583 warrants to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $0.12 per share that expire at various dates through 2015. The notes and interest are convertible into 1,366,553 shares of the Company’s common stock.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company issued 1,137,417 shares of its common stock valued at $614,205 in payment of $225,000 of principal and $116,225 accrued interest (total of $341,225). The conversion of these notes payable and accrued interest for common stock resulted in a non-cash charge of $272,980 to the derivative liability upon the conversion of convertible debt. During the three months ended September 30, 2014, there was no activity. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued 183,917 shares of its common stock valued at $66,209 in payment of $15,000 of principal and $6,966 accrued interest (total of $21,966). This resulted in an increase of $44,243 of interest. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, there was no activity.

Other Short-Term Debt

Other short term debt was comprised of a note payable to an accredited investor in the amount of $33,280. In the three and nine months ending September 30, 2014, the note was paid off. In the three and nine months ending September 30, 2013, there was such no activity.

On January 1, 2014, the Company issued a $30,000 short term note from an investor, MKM Capital. The note bears interest at 8% and matures on January 1, 2015. The balance of the note payable as of September 30, 2014, is $30,000.

In September 2014, the Company entered into short term loan agreements, which matured in October 2014, with seven accredited investors totaling $145,000, to sustain some of its daily operating expenses; the loans had a 5% transaction fee at maturity and the lenders were entitled to receive 18% interest if the notes are not paid at maturity. As additional consideration for the loan, the Company agreed to issue the lenders an aggregate of 171,667 shares of common stock, which are only issuable if and when the Company increases it authorized capital. These shares were included in the "Fees Payable in Common Stock" and were expensed as interest in the current period. As of the date of this Report, all but $35,000 of the loans have been repaid, but the remaining lender has not declared a default on the payment of his note. (See Note 10).

Convertible note payable with original issue discount

On March 19, 2014, the Company issued a $500,000 convertible note to JMJ Financial, an accredited private investor. The note bears interest at 6% and matures on March 19, 2016. The note is convertible under a variable conversion price formula that is based on the lesser of $0.11 per share of 60% of the lowest trade price in the 25 trading days previous to the conversion date. The note bears a $50,000 original issue discount which would yield $450,000 of net cash proceeds to the Company. As of September 30, 2014, the Company has drawn $50,000 cash proceeds from this note. The $50,000 cash draw plus the applicable pro-rata original issue discount results in a gross note payable balance of $55,556. The value of the conversion feature of this note, accounted for as a liability, was determined under the Black-Scholes pricing model to be $92,592 as of the date of issuance, of which $42,592 was recorded as a financing cost in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and $50,000 was recorded as a loan discount. The conversion feature and the original issue discount have been recorded as a loan discount of $55,556 that will be amortized as interest expense over the term of the note under the effective interest method. The effective interest rate of this note was determined to be 25.7%. In November 2014 the note and interest was paid off by the issuance of 70,477 shares of common stock valued at $0.582 per share.

GE Ionics

On August 31, 2010, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement relating to a $2,100,000 note payable that was amended on October 30, 2011. On May 7, 2012, GE informed the Company that it had failed to make any required installment payment that was due and payable under the GE Note and that the Company’s failure to make any such installment payment(s) constituted an Event of Default under the GE Note. Pursuant to the terms of the GE Note, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default for any reason whatsoever, GE shall, among other things, have the right to (a) cure such defaults, with the result that all costs and expenses incurred or paid by GE in effecting such cure shall bear interest at the highest rate permitted by law, and shall be payable upon demand; and (b) accelerate the maturity of the GE Note and demand the immediate payment thereof, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind. Upon an event of default under the GE Note, GE shall be entitled to, among other things (i) the principal amount of the GE Note along with any interest accrued but unpaid thereon and (ii) any and all expenses (including attorney’s fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the collection and enforcement of any rights under the GE Note.
 
Under the terms of the August 31, 2010 note, interest at the rate of WSJ prime plus 2% is due on the note, upon default, interest is due at the maximum legal rate which is 10% in the state of Texas. The note matured on September 1, 2013, and is in default. Interest on the note through September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, has been accrued pursuant to the terms of the note through May 6, 2012, interest upon default on May 7, 2012, has been accrued at the maximum default rate in the state of Texas which is 10%.

As of the date hereof, the Company has not repaid any principal or accrued but unpaid interest that has become due and payable under the GE Note.  

On May 22, 2013, GE filed a lawsuit against STW in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, Index No. 651832/2013 (the “GE Lawsuit”). Although the lawsuit arises out of STW’s obligations to GE under its Settlement Agreement with GE (upon which STW owed GE $2.1 million plus interest, GE has elected to forgo suit on the settlement amount and sue STW for the original debt of $11,239,437, plus interest and attorneys’ fees (the “Original Debt”). As such, STW filed its Answer and, asserted that it is entitled to and shall pursue all of its available legal and equitable defenses to the Original Debt, inasmuch as GE has, among other things, failed to discount the Original Debt sued upon by the amounts that it recovered through re-use and re-sale of the equipment it fabricated for STW. Management has not accrued the original amount of the debt because the probability of recovery is remote. (See Note 9)

Note payable to Crown Financial, LLC, a related party

This included $47,061 and $49,974, respectively, of amortization of debt discount and debt issuance. There was no interest capitalized in 2014 or 2013.

NOTE 5 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITY
 
We apply the accounting standard that provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument, or embedded feature, is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The standard applies to any freestanding financial instrument or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative, and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock.

From time to time, the Company has issued notes with embedded conversion features and warrants to purchase common stock. Certain of the embedded conversion features and warrants contain price protection or anti-dilution features that result in these instruments being treated as derivatives, or there were insufficient shares to satisfy the exercise of the instruments. On July 12, 2013, the Company increased its share authorization to 41,666,667 shares and removed this derivative liability associated with the 14% convertible notes due to the availability of sufficient authorized shares to settle these outstanding contracts.

Management has used the simplified Black Scholes model to estimate fair value of derivative instruments. Management believes that as a result of the relatively short term nature of the warrants and convertibility features, a lattice model would not result in a materially different valuation.

During 2013, the Company computed a historical volatility of 623% using daily pricing observations for recent periods. We applied a historical volatility rate during the year ended December 31, 2013, and future periods, since the Company exited its development stage and commenced commercial operations. We believe this method produces an estimate that is representative of our expectations of future volatility over the expected term of these warrants and embedded conversion features.

We currently have no reason to believe that future volatility over the expected remaining life of these warrants and embedded conversion features is likely to differ materially from historical volatility. The expected life is based on the remaining term of the warrants and embedded conversion features. The risk-free interest rate is based on one-year to five-year U.S. Treasury securities consistent with the remaining term of the warrants and embedded conversion features.
 
The following table presents our warrants and embedded conversion options which have no observable market data and are derived using Black-Scholes measured at fair value on a recurring basis, using Level 3 inputs, as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

Line of credit with Black Pearl Energy, LLC

On March 19, 2014, we entered into a Line of Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Black Pearl Energy, LLC ("Black Pearl"), an entity controlled by Stan Weiner and Lee Maddox, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, respectively, and one of our directors: Grant Seabolt. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, Black Pearl issued us a $2,000,000 line of credit, of which $1,277,573 has been advanced as of September 30, 2014. The credit was issued in the form of a promissory note (the "Note"). We must pay back all advanced funds on or before August 1, 2014, although such date will be extended to September 30, 2014 if we do not receive gross proceeds of no less than $6,000,000 resulting from either or both of: (a) the consummation of one or more private placements of debt or equity securities, not including the funds received pursuant to the Credit Agreement; or (b) the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for an initial public offering of our securities. Interest accrues at 11% per annum. To further induce Black Pearl to issue us the line of credit, we agreed to issue them 250,000 restricted shares of our common stock and a $25,000 transaction fee to be paid on the final closing date of the credit line.

Upon an event of default, which includes nonpayment of any funds owed or bankruptcy, Black Pearl may cease making further advances to us until such default is cured; if the default is not cured, all of Black Pearl's obligations under the Agreement and the Note shall cease and terminate, and Black Pearl may: (i) declare the outstanding principal evidenced by the Note immediately due and payable; (ii) exercise any remedy provided for in the Credit Agreement; or (iii) (iv) exercise any other right or remedy available to it pursuant to the Credit Agreement or Note, or as provided at law or in equity. Interest on the advanced funds shall increase to 18% until the default is cured.

Factoring Agreement with Crown Financial, LLC

On January 13, 2014, STW Resource Holding Corp entered into an accounts receivable factoring facility (the “Factoring Facility”) with Crown Financial, LLC ("Crown"), pursuant to an Account Purchase Agreement (the “Factoring Agreement”). The Factoring Agreement is secured through a Security Agreement between the Company, two of our subsidiaries: STW Pipeline Maintenance & Construction, LLC and STW Oilfield Construction, LLC (collectively, the "Subsidiaries") and Crown,  by all of the instruments, accounts, contracts and rights to the payment of money, all general intangibles and all equipment of the Company and the Subsidiaries. The Factoring Facility includes a loan in the amount of $4,000,000. Although our former Chief Operating Officer, Lee Maddox, personally guaranteed our full and prompt performance of all of our obligations, representations, warranties and covenants under the Factoring Agreement, pursuant to a Guaranty Agreement for and in consideration of Crown issuing us the Factoring Facility, such guaranty was terminated when Mr. Maddox resigned as our COO in July 2014, pursuant to the terms of the related Termination Agreement.

The Factoring Facility shall continue until terminated by either party upon 30 days written notice. Under the terms of the Factoring Agreement, Crown may, at its sole discretion, purchase certain of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable. Upon any acquisition of an account receivable, Crown will advance to the Company up to 80% of the face amount of the account receivable (the "Purchase Price"); although Crown maintains the right to propose a change in that rate, which we can accept in writing, orally or by accepting funding based on such changed rate. Additionally, based upon when each invoice gets paid, Crown shall pay us a rebate percentage of between 0-18% of the related invoice. Crown will generally have full recourse against us in the event of nonpayment of any such purchased account. Crown has the discretion to also accept a substitute invoice from us for uncollected invoices; if such substitute invoice is not accepted, we will be obligated to pay Crown the Purchase Price of such uncollected invoice plus interest at the maximum lawful interest rate per annum, minus any payments made on the invoice.

The Factoring Agreement contains covenants that are customary for agreements of this type and appoints Crown as attorney in fact for various activities associated with the purchased accounts receivable, including opening our mail, endorsing our name on related notes and payments, and filing liens against related third parties. The failure to satisfy covenants under the Factoring Agreement or the occurrence of other specified events that constitute an event of default could result in the acceleration of our repayment obligations or Crown enforcing its rights under the Security Agreement and taking possession of the collateral. The Factoring Agreement contains provisions relating to events of default that are customary for agreements of this type.

Indemnities and Guarantees

In addition to the indemnification provisions contained in the Company’s charter documents, the Company will generally enter into separate indemnification agreements with the Company’s directors and officers. These agreements require the Company, among other things, to indemnify the director or officer against specified expenses and liabilities, such as attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlements, paid by the individual in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of the individual’s status or service as the Company’s director or officer, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct or conduct that is knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest, and to advance expenses incurred by the individual in connection with any proceeding against the individual with respect to which the individual may be entitled to indemnification by the Company. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Employment Agreements

The Company has an employment agreement with Joshua Brooks that expired on September 19, 2014, but is renewable by mutual consent of the Company and Mr. Brooks. The agreement entitles Mr. Brooks to an annual salary of $120,000. The Company’s subsidiary, STW Pipeline Maintenance & Construction, LLC, has an employment agreement with Adam Jennings that expired on September 22, 2014, but is renewable by mutual consent of the Company and Mr. Jennings. The employment agreement for Mr. Jennings has been renewed and we are currently in negotiations with Mr. Brooks.

Contingencies

The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies in the normal course of business that arise from litigation, business transactions, or employee-related matters. The Company establishes reserves when it believes a loss is probable and is able to estimate its potential exposure. For loss contingencies believed to be reasonably possible, the Company also discloses the nature of the loss contingency and an estimate of the possible loss, range of loss, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. While actual losses may differ from the amounts recorded and the ultimate outcome of our pending actions is generally not yet determinable, the Company does not believe the ultimate resolution of currently pending legal proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In all cases, the Company vigorously defends itself unless a reasonable settlement appears appropriate. All items, whereby the Company agrees with the amount of the claim, have been recorded in the current period and are reflected in accounts payable.

GE Ionics, Inc. Lawsuit. On May 22, 2013, GE filed a lawsuit against STW in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, Index No. 651832/2013 (the “GE Lawsuit”). Although the lawsuit arises out of STW’s obligations to GE under its Settlement Agreement with GE (described more fully in Item 3, GE Ionics Settlement Agreement), upon which STW owed GE $2.1 million plus interest, GE has elected to forgo suit on the settlement amount and sue STW for the original debt of $11,239,437, plus interest and attorneys’ fees (the “Original Debt”). As such, STW filed its Answer and asserted that it is entitled to and shall pursue all of its available legal and equitable defenses to the Original Debt, inasmuch as GE has, among other things, failed to discount the Original Debt sued upon by the amounts that it recovered through re-use and re-sale of the equipment it fabricated for STW. Management has not accrued the original amount of the debt because the probability of recovery is remote. The lawsuit is in the discovery phase of litigation.

Marcus Muller and Roy Beach Promissory Notes. On March 2, 2012, counsel for Marcus Muller and Roy Beach sent a demand letter to the Company demanding payment on two 12% Convertible Notes by the Company to Messrs. Muller and Beach. The notes in an original principal amount of $25,000 each were issued on August 13 and 18, 2010 and were in a default status. Muller and Beach’s counsel threatened to initiate Chapter 7 Involuntary Bankruptcy proceedings against the Company, but did not disclose who the necessary third debtor was who had an alleged uncontested claim. Since that date, the Company has made all agreed upon payments of debt, interest and attorney fees to Muller and Beach and the related matter has been resolved.
 
TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP Lawsuit. On April 04, 2014, TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP filed a lawsuit against the Company in the Circuit Court of the 11th Judicial District of Miami-Dade County, Florida y, Florida, cause No. 2014-8956-CA-06, alleging the Company’s breach of an October 16, 2012 debt settlement agreement (the “TCA Lawsuit”). The Company did not have to file an answer, as it and TCA agreed to a First Addendum to the October 16, 2012 settlement agreement, wherein STW agreed to pay TCA Global the sum of $77,068 in unpaid principal, accrued interest and attorneys’ fees, and TCA Global agreed to conditionally dismiss the TCA Lawsuit. Should there be a default in the Company’s payments under the First Addendum, the Company agreed to the entry of a Final Consent Judgment for the $77,068, less amounts paid prior to filing of the Consent Judgment. The Company was previously in default under the Settlement Addendum, and still owes TCA Global $37,068 to discharge the obligation in full. At this time, TCA Global has accepted partial payments and has yet to file the Consent Judgment. The Company has paid all amounts due under the Settlement Addendum and the related matter has been finally resolved.
 
Sichenzia and Ross Lawsuit. On June 13, 2014, Sichenzia Ross Friedman Ference LLP filed a lawsuit against the Company in the Supreme Court of New York, County of New York, Index No. 155843/2013, seeking $180,036 in legal fees and expenses from the Company. The legal fees and expenses related to Sichenzia Ross’ representation of the Company on SEC matters. The parties filed a stipulation with the Court on August 25, 2014, which extended the Company’s date to file an Answer to the lawsuit to September 22, 2014. On October 8, 2014, the Parties entered into a Settlement Agreement whereby the Company agreed to pay Sichenzia Ross $80,036.22 on or before November 28, 2014 or within three business days of the Company closing its current round of financing. The agreement to pay was secured by the Company providing Sichenzia Ross an “Affidavit of Judgment by Confession” in the amount of $80,036.22 to be filed only if the Company failed to pay the $80,036.22 by the due date, plus a five day cure period ending on December 03, 2014. On December 10, 2014, Sichenzia Ross filed the Judgement by Confession with the Court.
 
Bob J. Johnson & Associates Lawsuit. There has been one lawsuit filed on July 14, 2014 against the Company’s subsidiary, STW Water Process & Technologies, LLC (“STW Water”), Bob J. Johnson & Associates, Inc. (BJJA) v. Alan Murphy and STW Water & Process Technologies, LLC, Case No. CV50473 in the 238th District Court of Midland County, Texas (the “BJJA Lawsuit”). BJJA sought to enforce an allegedly enforceable covenant not to compete and a confidentiality agreement signed by Alan Murphy, STW Water’s recently hired President, who was a former vice president and employee of BJJA. On July 14, 2014, BJJA obtained a TRO against Alan Murphy, STW Water and those associated with the Defendants, which, by the Company’s ownership of STW Water, included the Company. The TRO temporarily prohibited the Company, STW Water and Alan Murphy from contacting two key customers of STW and STW Water, Pioneer Energy Resources and the City of St. Stockton, Texas. On July 28, 2014, the Court held a temporary injunction hearing, which resulted in the TRO being dissolved and the Court refusing to further enjoin STW, STW Water or Alan Murphy from competing with BJJA. The case is still on the docket; however, the Company is confident that it will not go forward to a trial on the merits, thereby precluding any appreciable risk of a permanent injunction.

Arbitration Judgment

Viewpoint Securities, LLC Arbitration. On or about July 9, 2012, the Company and Stan Weiner, the Company's chief executive officer, received a demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association.

The demand alleged breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealings, negligence prayer for commissions and expenses incurred by VP in its efforts to provide introductions and attempt to provide financing to the Company from March 9, 2008 through February 2, 2012, the date of termination of the Agreement. VP seeks, among other things, $216,217 and a warrant to purchase 94,444 shares of the Company's common stock, payment of a $15,000 promissory note plus 3+ years of interest at 12%, attorneys' fees of $18,000 and costs of arbitration for filing fees and hearing fees.

A final arbitration hearing was held on February 3, 2014. On April 1, 2014, the Arbitrator issued an Award in favor of Viewpoint for $196,727 on Viewpoint's claim for $216,217 in fees and expenses, plus $5,541 in arbitration hearing fees and expenses; interest shall accrue at the rate of 10% per annum on any unpaid portion of the award commending April 1, 2014.

NOTE 10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On November 7, 2014, we affected a 1-to-6 reverse stock split of our common stock, or the Reverse Stock Split. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every six shares of our pre-Reverse Stock Split common stock were combined and reclassified into one share of our common stock. The Reverse Stock Split did change the authorized number of shares but did not change the par value on our common stock. Accordingly, share and per share amounts presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, have been adjusted retrospectively, where applicable, for all periods presented, to reflect this 1-to-6 reverse stock split.

Shares Issued
 
On October 15, 2014, the Company issued 129,921 shares of common stock to an investor at a unit value of $0.72 per share for the conversion of a revenue participation offering on STW Pipeline.

On October 23, 2014, the Company issued 33,333 shares of common stock to an investor at a unit value of $0.63 per share on the conversion of a short term convertible note.

On November 5, 2014, the company issued 70,477 shares of common stock to an investor at a unit value of $0.582 per share on the conversion of a short term convertible note.
 
On November 18, 2014, it was necessary to issue an additional 206 shares to cover the rounding effect of the 1 for 6 reverse stock split. On November 21, 2014, the transfer agent returned 45 of those shares to treasury stock, for a net of 161 shares issued for the rounding effect.

On November 20, 2014, the Company issued 8,333 shares of common stock to one of the investors in the July offering at a unit value of $0.60 per share.
 
Agreements

In September 2014, the Company entered into short term loan agreements with seven accredited investors totaling $145,000, to sustain some of its daily operating expenses. The notes matured on October 3, 2014, however, in consideration of an extension of the maturity date to October 24, 2014, the Company agreed to issue an aggregate of 17,917 shares of its common stock to those lenders agreeing to the extension if and when the Company increases its authorized capital.

On September 30, 2014 the Company issued its first note for $125,000 for the new Upton Project. The total principal required is $1,250,000. In the period from October 1, 2014 to December 22, 2014 the company has received an additional $930,750 for a total to-date of $1,055,750. For a more complete discussion see Note 4.
 
On October 2, 2014, the Company entered into a lease of two vehicles with Enterprise Leasing. The lease contract calls for thirty six (36) monthly payments of $3,293 with a purchase option at the end of the lease.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

On November 7, 2014, we effected a 1-to-6 reverse stock split of our common stock, or the Reverse Stock Split. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every six shares of our pre-Reverse Stock Split common stock were combined and reclassified into one share of our common stock. The Reverse Stock Split did change the authorized number of shares but did not change the par value on our common stock. Accordingly, share and per share amounts presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, have been adjusted retrospectively, where applicable. For all periods presented, to reflect this 1-to-6 reverse stock split.

All per share data herein has been retroactively adjusted for the 1 for 6 reverse stock split that occurred on November 7, 2014.

The following information should be read in conjunction with STW Resources Holding Corp. and its subsidiaries ("we", "us", "our", or the “Company”) condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements and the notes thereto contained elsewhere in this report. Information in this Item 2, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q that does not consist of historical facts, are "forward-looking statements."  Statements accompanied or qualified by, or containing words such as "may," "will," "should," "believes," "expects," "intends," "plans," "projects," "estimates," "predicts," "potential," "outlook," "forecast," "anticipates," "presume," and "assume" constitute forward-looking statements, and as such, are not a guarantee of future performance. 

Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond our control. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated as a result of the factors described in the “Risk Factors” and detailed in our other Securities and Exchange Commission filings. Risks and uncertainties can include, among others, fluctuations in general business cycles and changing economic conditions; changing product demand and industry capacity; increased competition and pricing pressures; and advances in technology that can reduce the demand for the Company's products. Consequently, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as predictive of future results. 

Because of these risks and uncertainties, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this report or incorporated by reference might not transpire. Factors that cause actual results or conditions to differ from those anticipated by these and other forward-looking statements include those more fully described elsewhere in this report and in the “Risk Factors” section of our annual report on Form 10-K.

The Company disclaims any obligation to update the forward-looking statements in this report.
 
Overview
 
The Company is a corporation formed to utilize state of the art water reclamation technologies to reclaim fresh water from highly contaminated oil and gas hydraulic fracture flow-back salt water that is produced in conjunction with the production of oil and gas. The Company has been working to establish contracts with oil and gas operators for the deployment of multiple water reclamation systems throughout Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana and the Appalachian Basin of Pennsylvania and West Virginia. The Company, in conjunction with energy producers, operators, various state agencies and legislators, is working to create an efficient and economical solution to this complex problem. The Company is also evaluating the deployment of similar technology in the municipal wastewater industry.
 
The Company’s operations are located at 3424 South County Road, Midland, Texas 79706.

The Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm related to our December 31, 2013 consolidated financial statements includes an explanatory paragraph stating that the recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and our working capital deficiency at December 31, 2013 raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
Results of Operations

For the next twelve months, our current operating plan is focused on providing water reclamation services to oil & gas producers and other commercial ventures in Texas. Water reclamation services include treating brackish water for use in fracking operations, landscaping and other commercial applications and reclaiming produced water.
 
As is discussed further in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section below, we have limited funds to support our operations. Our continuation as a going concern subsequent to the quarter ended September 30, 2014 is dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing to fund the continued operation of our business model for a long enough period to achieve profitable operations. Based on our current business plan, we currently estimate we will need up to an additional $5 million of new capital to execute our business plan over the next nine months. There can be no assurance, however, that such financing will be available or, if it is available, that we will be able to structure such financing on terms acceptable to us and that it will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements until we can reach a level of profitable operations and positive cash flows. If we are unable to obtain the financing necessary to support our operations, we may be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Three months ended September 30, 2014 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2013

Our revenue, operating expenses, and net loss from operations for the three month period ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the three month period ended September 30, 2013, were as follows – some balances on the prior period’s combined financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation:

Net Revenues:  During the three months ended September 30, 2014, we realized $162,846 of revenues from our water reclamation business segment and $4,633,535 of revenues from our oil & gas services business segment, including $66,000 from a related party. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, we realized 147,617 of revenues from oil & gas services business segment, including $57,408 from a related party. The increase in revenues between the quarter ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 is $4,648,764 or 3,149.2%. The increase in revenues is due largely to the ramp-up of business operations during 2014, while during the quarter ended September 30, 2013 we had just initially commenced operations.

Cost of Revenues:  Costs of revenues are comprised of labor, fringe benefits, equipment rental, and other costs of providing water reclamation and oil & gas services. Total costs of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2014 were $4,691,207 as compared to $216,607 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $4,474,600 or 2,065.8%. The increase in costs of revenue is largely attributable to the increased revenues from our oil & gas services business segment.
 
Gross Profit:  During the three months ended September 30, 2014, we realized a gross profit of $105,174. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 we incurred a negative gross profit of $68,990 from our oil & gas services business segment. The gross profit during the three months ended September 30, 2014 is attributable to revenues from our water reclamation and oil & gas services business segments. The negative gross profit incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2013 is attributable to the startup costs of launching our STW Energy and STW Pipeline Maintenance & Construction business units.
 
Research and development expenses:  During the three months ended September 30, 2014 we incurred zero research and development expenses. During the three months ended September 30, 2013 we incurred $59,938 of research and development expenses, a decrease of $59,938 or 100.0%. The research and development expenses are attributable to our water reclamation business segment.
 
Sales and marketing expenses:  During the three months ended September 30, 2014 sales and marketing expenses increased by $296,419 or 100.0% from none for the three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase in sales and marketing expenses are attributable to increased expenses, due to increased advertising and promotions as well as the addition of 16 new people sense the prior year end, our oil & gas services business segment during the three months ended September 30, 2014.
 
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses increased by $2,766,847 or 349.6% to $3,558,352 for the three months ended September 30, 2014 from $791,505 for the three months ended September 30, 2013. Our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2014 consisted of board of director fees of $131,250, professional fees of $300,397, management fees of $255,649, salaries and wages of $551,974, insurance of $116,420, penalties of $24,183, and other general and administrative expenses (which includes expenses such as; Auto, Business Development, SEC Filing, Factoring, Investor Relations, General Office, Stock Compensation of $1,440,985, Travel, and Utilities) of $2,178,479, for a total of $3,558,352. Our general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2013  consisted of board of director fees of $150,000, professional fees of $133,865, salaries and benefits of $164,000, consulting fees of $140,133, insurance of $16,953, and other general and administrative expenses (which includes expenses such as; Auto, Business Development, SEC Filing, Factoring, Investor Relations, General Office, Stock Compensation of zero, Travel, and Utilities) of $186,554, for a total of $791,505.
 
The primary reasons for the increase in comparing the three months ended September 30, 2014 to the corresponding period for 2013 was mainly due to the rapid ramp-up of the business since the prior year which caused an increase in business development expenses, increase in salaries and benefits for employees, increase in professional services and consulting fees, increase in management fees, increased penalties related to payroll taxes, and the increase in the board of director fees. During the three month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, non-cash stock based compensation expenses relating to consulting and other fees included in general and administrative expenses were $1,566,912 and $420,560, respectively.

Interest Expense:  Interest expense increased by $216,216 to $619,391 for the three month period ended September 30, 2014 from $403,175 for the three month period ended September 30, 2013. The increase is due primarily to issuance of short term debt. This is partially offset due to the reduction of interest expense incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2014 from the payment or conversion of approximately $1.0 million of notes payable since September 30, 2013.

Loss on sale of property and equipment: During the three month period ended September 30, 2014, we sold some of the Company’s fixed assets at a loss totaling $39,860. There was no such sale in the three month period ended September 30, 2013.
 
Change in derivative liability: During the three month period ended September 30, 2014, we recorded an $834,930 increase in the fair value of the derivative liability from June 30, 2014. During the three month period ended September 30, 2013, we recorded a $1,059,717 increase in the derivative liability from June 30, 2013, a net difference of $224,787 between the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. The increase in the derivative liability during the three months ended September 30, 2014 is attributable to the effect of increased share values as of September 30, 2014 as compared to June 30, 2014. The reason for the increase in the derivative liability for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was mainly due to the change in the fair value of derivatives attributable to the increase in volatility rate from 100% for 2012 to a historical rate of 623% for 2013.

Non-controlling interest in Net Loss:  During the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, we reported $135,366 and $12,227, respectively, as the non-controlling interest in the net loss of our STW Energy Services, LLC subsidiary. This non-controlling interest in the net loss represents of a 25% non-controlling interest in the net loss of STW Energy Services, LLC, and a subsidiary company.
 
 Net Loss:  Net loss increased by $2,793,577 , or 117.3%, to a net loss of $5,174,292 for the three month period ended September 30, 2014 from a net loss of $2,380,715 for the three month period ended September 30, 2013. This net loss reflects the increased revenues with improved gross margin, less increased operating expenses and change in derivative liability discussed above.

Net Revenues:  During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we realized $172,897 from our water reclamation business segment, $13,837,611 of revenues from our oil & gas services business segment of which $143,378 is from a related party. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, we realized $541,000 of revenues from our water reclamation business segment and $147,617 of revenues from our from our oil & gas services business segment, of which $57,408 is from a related party. The increase in revenues between the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 is $13,321,891, or 1,934.6%, is attributable to a decrease of $368,103 of water reclamation services revenues offset by an increase of $13,689,994 of revenues, due to increased demand caused by our increased advertising and promotions as well as the addition of 16 new people sense the prior year end, from our oil & gas services business segments.

Cost of Revenues:  Total costs of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 were $13,148,506 as compared to $676,242 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $12,472,264 or 1,844.3%. The increase in costs of revenue is attributable to the increased revenues from our oil & gas services business segment. Costs of revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, are comprised of labor, fringe benefits, equipment rental, and other costs of providing oil & gas services. Costs of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 are attributable to contract costs to design, build and deliver a proprietary water desalinization facility and costs of our oil & gas services business segment.
 
Gross Profit:  During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we realized a gross profit of $862,002 from our oil & gas services business segment compared to $12,375 of gross profit realized during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, an increase in gross profit of $849,627, or 6,865.7%. The increased gross profit is attributable to the increased sales volume during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Research and development expenses:  Research and development expenses increased by $82,899 or 120.0% to $151,955 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 from $69,056 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase in research and development expenses is attributable to our water reclamation business segment.

Sales and marketing expenses:  Sales and marketing expenses increased by $735,608 or 100.0%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 from none for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase in sales and marketing expenses are attributable to increased expenses, due to increased advertising and promotions as well as the addition of 16 new people sense the prior year end, our oil & gas services business segment.
 
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses increased $6,875,679 or 373.4% to $8,717,116 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 from $1,841,437 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Our general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 consisted board of director fees of $468,750,  professional fees of $614,231, management fees of $1,247,752, salaries and wages of $1,502,179, consulting fees of $179,154, insurance of $212,805, penalties of $831,182, and other general and administrative expenses (which includes expenses such as; Auto, Business Development, SEC Filing, Factoring, Investor Relations, General Office, Stock Compensation of $1,446,961, Travel, and Utilities) of $3,661,063, for a total of $8,717,116. Our general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 consisted board of director fees of $455,825, professional fees of $411,011, management fees of $529,476, salaries and wages of $164,000, insurance of $35,123, and other general and administrative expenses (which includes expenses such as; Auto, Business Development, SEC Filing, Factoring, Investor Relations, General Office, Stock Compensation of $155, Travel, and Utilities) of $246,002, for a total of $1,841,437.
 
The primary reasons for the increase in comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2014 to the corresponding period for 2013 was mainly due to the rapid ramp-up of the business since the prior year which caused an increase in business development expenses, increase in salaries and benefits for employees, increase in professional services and consulting fees, increase in management fees, increased penalties related to payroll taxes, and the increase in the board of director fees. During the nine month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, non-cash stock based compensation expenses relating to consulting and other fees included in general and administrative expenses were $3,243,356 and $630,560, respectively.
 
Interest Expense:  Interest expense increased by $601,160 to $1,564,896 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2014 from $963,736 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013. The increase is due to additional interest expenses incurred on additional debt financing incurred by us since September 30, 2013, including $214,234 of additional interest expense attributable to the conversion of a note payable and accrued interest for common shares having a value greater than the carrying value of the note and accrued interest and $262,000 for seven short term loans in late September 2014. The increase in interest expense is partially offset by the payment or conversion of approximately $1.0 million of notes payable since September 30, 2013. Had these note payment and conversions not occurred, interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 would have been substantially greater.
 
Change in derivative liability: During the nine month period ended September 30, 2014, we recorded a $1,278,466 increase in the fair value of the derivative liability from December 31, 2013. During the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, we recorded a $2,796,086 increase in the derivative liability from December 31, 2012. There is a net difference of $1,517,620 between the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. The decrease in the derivative liability during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 is attributable to the reduction of the remaining term of outstanding warrants offset by the effect of an increase in the value of shares as of September 30, 2014. The reason for the increase in the derivative liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was mainly due to the change in the fair value of derivatives attributable to the increase in volatility rate from 100% for 2012 to a historical rate of 623% for 2013.

Non-controlling interest in Net Loss:  During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, we reported $166,294 and $12,998, respectively, as the non-controlling interest in the net loss of our STW Energy Services, LLC subsidiary. This non-controlling interest in the net loss represents of a 25% non-controlling interest in the net loss of STW Energy Services, LLC, and a subsidiary company.
 
 Net Loss:  Net loss increased by $5,987,326, or 105.9%, to a net loss of $11,641,885 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2014 from a net loss of $5,654,559 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013. This net loss reflects the increased revenues with improved gross margin, less increased operating expenses and change in derivative liability discussed above.

Liquidity, Capital Resources, and Management Plans
 
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that we are a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As presented in the consolidated financial statements, we incurred a net loss of $11,641,885 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and losses are expected to continue in the near term. The accumulated deficit since inception is $35,997,228 at September 30, 2014. Refer to Note 7 for our discussion of stockholder deficit. We have been funding our operations through private loans and the sale of common stock in private placement transactions. Refer to Note 4 and Note 7 in the condensed consolidated financial statements for our discussion of notes payable and shares issued, respectively.Our cash resources are insufficient to meet our planned business objectives without additional financing. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of our company to continue as a going concern.
 
Management anticipates that significant additional expenditures will be necessary to develop and expand our oil & gas services and water reclamation services business units before significant positive operating cash flows can be achieved. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital and to ultimately achieve sustainable revenues and profitable operations. At September 30, 2014, we had $281,931 of cash on hand. These funds are insufficient to complete our business plan and as a consequence, we will need to seek additional funds, primarily through the issuance of debt or equity securities for cash to operate our business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stock holders, in case or equity financing.
 
Management has undertaken steps as part of a plan to improve operations with the goal of sustaining our operations for the next twelve months and beyond. These steps include (a) raising additional capital and/or obtaining financing; (b) executing contracts with oil and gas operators and municipal utility districts; and (c) controlling overhead and expenses. There can be no assurance that the Company can successfully accomplish these steps and it is uncertain that the Company will achieve a profitable level of operations and obtain additional financing. There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if at all. As of the date of this Report, we have not entered into any formal agreements regarding the above.

In the event the Company is unable to continue as a going concern, the Company may elect or be required to seek protection from its creditors by filing a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or may be subject to an involuntary petition in bankruptcy. To date, management has not considered this alternative, nor does management view it as a likely occurrence.

Presently, due to the lack of revenues and profitability we are not able to meet our operating and capital expenses. The success of our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon successful permitting of our sites obtaining customers for water reclamation services, and maintaining a break even or profitable level of operations. We have incurred operating losses since inception, and this is likely to continue in the near future.

The financial requirements of our Company will be dependent upon the financial support through credit facilities and additional sales of our equity securities. There can be no assurance, however, that such financing will be available or, if it is available, that we will be able to structure such financing on terms acceptable to us and that it will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements until we can reach a level of profitable operations and positive cash flows. If we are unable to obtain the financing necessary to support our operations, we may be unable to continue as a going concern. We currently have no firm commitments for any additional capital.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital and to ultimately achieve sustainable revenues and profitable operations. At September 30, 2014, the Company had $281,931 of cash on hand; however, the Company raised an additional $1,055,750 via revenue participation notes on our new Upton project during the period October 1, 2014 through December 22, 2014, to sustain its operations. Management expects that the current funds on hand will not be sufficient to continue operations through December 31, 2014. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through the issuance of debt or equity securities for cash to operate our business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, and that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case or equity financing.

The downturn in the United States stock and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Further, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our shares of common stock or the debt securities may cause us to be subject to restrictive covenants. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek additional financing. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail our operations.

The net cash used in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 reflects a net loss of $5,654,559, decreased by $2,899,551 in non-cash charges and by $1,532,234 net increase in the working capital accounts.
 
    Our investing activities were $470,689 and $241,876 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013, respectively. Our investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are attributable to purchases of equipment, net of related equipment loans.

    Our financing activities resulted in a cash inflow of $1,357,800 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, which represented $30,468 of bank overdraft, the repayment of $197,369 of notes payable, proceeds of $364,137 from notes payable, and the issuance of $1,221,500 in common stock. Our financing activities resulted in cash inflow of $1,495,466 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, which is represented by $8,327 of bank overdraft, the repayment of $51,000 of notes payable, non-controlling interest contribution of $2,500, the issuance of $902,588 in revenue participating notes, debt issuance costs of $35,025, and $668,076 in proceeds from fees payable in common stock.

Credit Facility

On March 19, 2014, we entered into a Line of Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Black Pearl Energy, LLC ("Black Pearl"), an entity controlled by Stan Weiner and Lee Maddox, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer, respectively, and one of our directors: Grant Seabolt. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, Black Pearl issued us a $2,000,000 line of credit, of which $1,277,573 has been advanced as of September 30, 2014. The credit was issued in the form of a promissory note (the "Note"). We must pay back all advanced funds on or before August 1, 2014, although such date has been extended to September 30, 2014 if we do not receive gross proceeds of no less than $6,000,000 resulting from either or both of: (a) the consummation of one or more private placements of debt or equity securities, not including the funds received pursuant to the Credit Agreement; or (b) the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for an initial public offering of our securities. Interest accrues at 11% per annum. To further induce Black Pearl to issue us the line of credit, we agreed to issue them 250,000 restricted shares of our common stock and a $25,000 transaction fee to be paid on the final closing date of the credit line.

Upon an event of default, which includes nonpayment of any funds owed or bankruptcy, Black Pearl may cease making further advances to us until such default is cured; if the default is not cured, all of Black Pearl's obligations under the Agreement and the Note shall cease and terminate, and Black Pearl may: (i) declare the outstanding principal evidenced by the Note immediately due and payable; (ii) exercise any remedy provided for in the Credit Agreement; or (iii) (iv) exercise any other right or remedy available to it pursuant to the Credit Agreement or Note, or as provided at law or in equity. Interest on the advanced funds shall increase to 18% until the default is cured.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Please refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, for disclosures regarding the Company's critical accounting policies and estimates, as well as updates further disclosed in our interim financial statements as described in this Form 10-Q.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
 
The Company failed to timely file its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 and its quarterly reports on Form 10Q for the first two quarters of its fiscal year ending December 31, 2013, and for the first three quarters of its fiscal year ending December 31, 2014, which demonstrates that its Disclosure Controls and Procedures are inadequate.
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
As of the end of our fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2014, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon those evaluations, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2014, to cause the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods prescribed by SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 
-39-

 

Going forward from this filing, the Company intends to work on re-establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to be effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance of achieving the desired objectives. Also, 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 and instances of fraud, if any, have been 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. The design of any system of controls is based, in part, upon 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.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
During the quarter covered by this Report, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting. No remediation has been made in this quarter.
 
Part II – Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company may become a party to litigation or other legal proceedings that it considers to be a part of the ordinary course of its business. The Company is involved currently in legal proceedings described below that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations. The Company may become involved in other material legal proceedings in the future.

GE Ionics, Inc. Lawsuit. On May 22, 2013, GE filed a lawsuit against STW in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, Index No. 651832/2013 (the “GE Lawsuit”). Although the lawsuit arises out of STW’s obligations to GE under its Settlement Agreement with GE (described more fully in Item 3, GE Ionics Settlement Agreement), upon which STW owed GE $2.1 million plus interest, GE has elected to forgo suit on the settlement amount and sue STW for the original debt of $11,239,437, plus interest and attorneys’ fees (the “Original Debt”). As such, STW filed its Answer and asserted that it is entitled to and shall pursue all of its available legal and equitable defenses to the Original Debt, inasmuch as GE has, among other things, failed to discount the Original Debt sued upon by the amounts that it recovered through re-use and re-sale of the equipment it fabricated for STW. Management has not accrued the original amount of the debt because the probability of recovery is remote. The lawsuit is in the discovery phase of litigation.

TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP Lawsuit. On April 04, 2014, TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP filed a lawsuit against the Company in the Circuit Court of the 11th Judicial District of Miami-Dade County, Florida y, Florida, cause No. 2014-8956-CA-06, alleging the Company’s breach of an October 16, 2012 debt settlement agreement (the “TCA Lawsuit”). The Company did not have to file an answer, as it and TCA agreed to a First Addendum to the October 16, 2012 settlement agreement, wherein STW agreed to pay TCA Global the sum of $77,068 in unpaid principal, accrued interest and attorneys’ fees, and TCA Global agreed to conditionally dismiss the TCA Lawsuit. Should there be a default in the Company’s payments under the First Addendum, the Company agreed to the entry of a Final Consent Judgment for the $77,068, less amounts paid prior to filing of the Consent Judgment. The Company was previously in default under the Settlement Addendum, and owed TCA Global $37,068 to discharge the obligation in full. At this time, TCA Global has accepted partial payments and did not file the Consent Judgment. The Company has paid all amounts due under the Settlement Addendum and the related matter has been finally resolved.

Sichenzia and Ross Lawsuit. On June 13, 2014, Sichenzia Ross Friedman Ference LLP filed a lawsuit against the Company in the Supreme Court of New York, County of New York, Index No. 155843/2013, seeking $180,036 in legal fees and expenses from the Company. The legal fees and expenses related to Sichenzia Ross’ representation of the Company on SEC matters. The parties filed a stipulation with the Court on August 25, 2014, which extended the Company’s date to file an Answer to the lawsuit to September 22, 2014. On October 8, 2014, the Parties entered into a Settlement Agreement whereby the Company agreed to pay Sichenzia Ross $80,036.22 on or before November 28, 2014 or within three business days of the Company closing its current round of financing. The agreement to pay was secured by the Company providing Sichenzia Ross an “Affidavit of Judgment by Confession” in the amount of $80,036.22 to be filed only if the Company failed to pay the $80,036.22 by the due date, plus a five day cure period ending on December 03, 2014. On December 10, 2014, Sichenzia Ross filed the Judgement by Confession with the Court.
 
Bob J. Johnson & Associates Lawsuit. There has been one lawsuit filed on July 14, 2014 against the Company’s subsidiary, STW Water Process & Technologies, LLC (“STW Water”), Bob J. Johnson & Associates, Inc. (BJJA) v. Alan Murphy and STW Water & Process Technologies, LLC, Case No. CV50473 in the 238th District Court of Midland County, Texas (the “BJJA Lawsuit”). BJJA sought to enforce an allegedly enforceable covenant not to compete and a confidentiality agreement signed by Alan Murphy, STW Water’s recently hired President, who was a former vice president and employee of BJJA. On July 14, 2014, BJJA obtained a TRO against Alan Murphy, STW Water and those associated with the Defendants, which, by the Company’s ownership of STW Water, included the Company. The TRO temporarily prohibited the Company, STW Water and Alan Murphy from contacting two key customers of STW and STW Water, Pioneer Energy Resources and the City of St. Stockton, Texas. On July 28, 2014, the Court held a temporary injunction hearing, which resulted in the TRO being dissolved and the Court refusing to further enjoin STW, STW Water or Alan Murphy from competing with BJJA. The case is still on the docket; however, the Company is confident that it will not go forward to a trial on the merits, thereby precluding any appreciable risk of a permanent injunction.

Viewpoint Securities, LLC Arbitration. On or about July 9, 2012, the Company and Stan Weiner, the Company's chief executive officer, received a demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association. The demand was filed by Viewpoint Securities LLC ("VP") who entered into an engagement agreement, dated March 9, 2008 (as amended on March 9, 2008, November 10, 2008, January 1, 2009, February 5, 2010, and December 1, 2010), with STW whereby the Company retained VP to act as its financial and capital markets advisor regarding equity and debt introduced by VP to the Company. The demand alleged breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealings, negligence prayer for commissions and expenses incurred by VP in its efforts to provide introductions and attempt to provide financing to the Company from March 9, 2008 through February 2, 2012, the date of termination of the Agreement. VP seeks, among other things, $216,217 and a warrant to purchase 94,445 shares of the Company's common stock, payment of a $15,000 promissory note plus 3+ years of interest at 12%, attorneys' fees of $18,000 and costs of arbitration for filing fees and hearing fees. The Company believed it had valid defenses and contested these claims vigorously. On August 18, 2012, VP dismissed Stan Weiner from the claim with prejudice. A final arbitration hearing was held on February 3, 2014. On April 1, 2014, the Arbitrator issued an Award in favor of Viewpoint for $196,727 on Viewpoint's claim for $216,217 in fees and expenses, plus $5,541 in arbitration hearing fees and expenses; interest shall accrue at the rate of 10% per annum on any unpaid portion of the award commending April 1, 2014. The Arbitrator denied Viewpoint's claims related to the Company's warrants, a $15,000 promissory note plus 12% interest and for $18,000 in attorneys' fees. The Award was final April 1, 2014, and on October 28, 2014, Viewpoint filed a lawsuit in San Diego County, California Superior Court seeking to enforce its Arbitration Award, in Case No. 37-2014-00036027-CU-PA-CTL. The full amount of this award has been accrued for in Accounts Payable.

Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities
 
GE Ionics Settlement Agreement

On or about May 22, 2008, STW Resources Holding Corporation entered into a Teaming Agreement, as amended, with GE Ionics, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (“GE”) (STWR and GE are collectively referred to as the “Parties”). On or about April 4, 2008 STWR and GE entered into a Purchase Order (the “Purchase Order”), pursuant to which there was due and unpaid a debt by STWR to GE in the amount of $11,239,437 as of August 31, 2010 (the “Original Debt”).
 
On August 31, 2010, the Parties entered into a Settlement Agreement (the “GE Settlement Agreement”) pursuant to which GE permitted the Company to substitute for STWR as to all rights and obligations under the Purchase Order (including the Original Debt) and Teaming Agreement, and such that to fully discharge STW financial obligations to GE under the Purchase Order, the Company shall pay GE $1,400,000 pursuant to a senior promissory note (the “GE Note”). The GE Note bore interest at a rate of the WSJ Prime Rate (as published daily in the Wall Street Journal) plus two percent (2%) per annum. Under the terms of the GE Note, the Company had thirteen (13) months to pay off the GE Note plus all accrued interest. In addition, upon the consummation and closing of a debt or equity financing following the execution of the GE Note, the Company shall pay GE thirty percent (30%) of any and all tranches (“Tranches” being defined as the cash receipts of the proceeds of any equity investments in or loans to the Company or any affiliated entity by third parties, but excluding any conversions of pre-existing debt to equity by any of the Company’s then current convertible note holders or creditors) until the GE Note is paid in full, including all accrued interest. On September 29, 2011, the Parties agreed to extend the maturity date of the GE Note from September 30, 2011 to October 30, 2011.

On October 30, 2011, the Parties entered into an amendment to the GE Settlement Agreement, effective October 1, 2011, pursuant to which, among other things, the Parties agreed as follows: (i) the Company will have until September 1, 2013 to pay GE $2,100,000 plus interest accrued after October 1, 2011 under the GE Note in accordance with its terms, (ii) upon the consummation and closing of a debt or equity financing following the execution of the GE Note, the Company shall pay GE thirty percent (30%) of any and all tranches (“Tranches” being defined as the cash receipts of the proceeds of any equity investments in or loans to the Company or any affiliated entity by third parties, but excluding any conversions of pre-existing debt to equity by any of the Company’s then current convertible note holders or creditors) until the GE Note is paid in full, including all accrued interest, provided the Company shall not be obligated to pay GE upon, among other things, the following: (a) short term commercial paper of $200,000 or less, up to a cumulative maximum of $500,000 through December 31, 2012, (b) commercial equipment leasing whereby GE is taking a secured interest in the purchased equipment, (c) proceeds from project, lease and equipment funding to any subsidiary of the Company provided the Company does not receive any proceeds of such funding and (d) a one-time general exception for $1,500,000 of new equity financing of the Company, (iii) the Company shall begin making a regular series of installment payments as follows: (a) $10,000 per month beginning on January 1, 2012, and (b) $15,000 per month beginning on June 1, 2012 through the maturity date of the GE Note and (iv) the Company shall be able to prepay the GE Note, without interest, on or before the maturity date.

On May 7, 2012, GE informed the Company that it had failed to make any required installment payment that was due and payable under the GE Note and that the Company’s failure to make any such installment payment(s) constituted an Event of Default under the GE Note. Pursuant to the terms of the GE Note, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default for any reason whatsoever, GE shall, among other things, have the right to (a) cure such defaults, with the result that all costs and expenses incurred or paid by GE in effecting such cure shall bear interest at the highest rate permitted by law, and shall be payable upon demand; and (b) accelerate the maturity of the GE Note and demand the immediate payment thereof, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind. Upon an event of default under the GE Note, GE shall be entitled to, among other things (i) the principal amount of the GE Note along with any interest accrued but unpaid thereon and (ii) any and all expenses (including attorney’s fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the collection and enforcement of any rights under the GE Note.
 
As of the date of this Report, the Company has not repaid any principal or accrued but unpaid interest that has become due and payable under the GE Note. 

On May 22, 2013, GE filed a lawsuit against STW in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, Index No. 651832/2013 (the “GE Lawsuit”). Although the lawsuit arises out of STW’s obligations to GE under its Settlement Agreement with GE (described more fully in Item 4 Debt, GE Ionics Settlement Agreement), upon which STW owed GE $2.1 million plus interest, GE has elected to forgo suit on the settlement amount and sue STW for the original debt of $11,239,437, plus interest and attorneys’ fees (the “Original Debt”). As such, STW filed its Answer and asserted that it is entitled to and shall pursue all of its available legal and equitable defenses to the Original Debt, inasmuch as GE has, among other things, failed to discount the Original Debt sued upon by the amounts that it recovered through re-use and re-sale of the equipment it fabricated for STW. Management has not accrued the original amount of the debt because the probability of recovery is remote.

TCA Loan

On October 16, 2012, the Company and TCA entered into a settlement agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay as follows: (i) $15,000 to be paid on October 18, 2012, (ii) $15,000 to be paid on or before November 1, 2012, (iii) five (5) equal installments of $20,000 to be paid beginning on December 1, 2012 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter, (iv) $4,280 in principal and $9,068 of interest to be paid on or prior to May 1, 2013 and (v) $3,000 for legal fees to be paid on May 1, 2013. Under the settlement agreement, if STW is late on any installment, it has ten days after notice from TCA to make a cure payment. During 2014 and 2013, the Company has not made all of its required payments and the $43,280 balance of the note is in default.
