SOLAR3D, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-UNAUDITED
MARCH 31, 2015
 
1.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015. For further information refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies of Solar3D, Inc. is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Solar3D, Inc., and its wholly owned operating subsidiaries, Solar United Network, Inc. (d/b/a SUNworks) and MD Energy, INC. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation of these entities.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimates used to review the Company’s goodwill, impairments and estimations of long-lived assets, revenue recognition on percentage of completion type contracts, allowances for uncollectible accounts, inventory valuation, debt beneficial conversion features, valuations of non-cash capital stock issuances and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.  The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Cash and Cash Equivalent
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Stock-Based Compensation
The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges generally are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-UNAUDITED
MARCH 31, 2015
 
2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share Calculations
Income (Loss) per Share dictates the calculation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The shares for employee options, warrants and convertible notes were used in the calculation of the income per share.

For the period ended March 31, 2015, the Company has excluded 957,266 options, 3,000,000 warrants outstanding, and notes convertible into 4,424,515 shares of common stock, because their impact on the loss per share is anti-dilutive.
 
Revenue Recognition
Revenues and related costs on construction contracts are recognized using the “percentage of completion method” of accounting in accordance with ASC 605-35, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production Type Contracts (“ASC 605-35”). Under this method, contract revenues and related expenses are recognized over the performance period of the contract in direct proportion to the costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs for the entirety of the contract. Costs include direct material, direct labor, subcontract labor and any allocable indirect costs. All un-allocable indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are charged to the periods as incurred. However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss as it is determined.

Revisions in cost and profit estimates during the course of the contract are reflected in the accounting period in which the facts, which require the revision, become known.  Provisions for estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses are determined.  Changes in job performance, job conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions, and final contract settlements may result in revisions to costs and income and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined.

The Asset, “Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings”, represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed on contracts in progress. The Liability, “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings”, represents billings in excess of revenues recognized on contracts in progress. At March 31, 2015 and 2014, the costs in excess of billings balance was $1,564,543 and $1,276,677, and the billings in excess of costs balance was $1,143,189 and $891,633, respectively.

Contract receivables are recorded on contracts for amounts currently due based upon progress billings, as well as retention, which are collectible upon completion of the contracts.  Accounts payable to material suppliers and subcontractors are recorded for amounts currently due based upon work completed or materials received, as are retention due subcontractors, which are payable upon completion of the contract.  General and administrative expenses are charged to operations as incurred and are not allocated to contract costs.

Contracts Receivable
The Company performs ongoing credit evaluation of its customers. Management closely monitors outstanding receivables based on factors surrounding the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information, and records bad debts using the direct write-off method. Generally accepted accounting principles require the allowance method be used to reflect bad debts, however, the effect of the use of the direct write-off method is not materially different from the results that would have been obtained had the allowance method been followed.

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, and are depreciated using the straight line method over its estimated useful lives:
 
 Machinery & equipment
 5 Years
 Furniture & fixtures
 5-7 Years
 Computer equipment

2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews its property and equipment and any identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The test for impairment is required to be performed by management at least annually. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted operating cash flow expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
 
Concentration Risk
Cash includes amounts deposited in financial institutions in excess of insurable Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) limits. At times throughout the year, the Company may maintain cash balances in certain bank accounts in excess of FDIC limits. As of March 31, 2015, the cash balance in excess of the FDIC limits was $10,471,188. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk in these accounts.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of March 31, 2015, the amounts reported for cash, accrued interest and other expenses, and notes payable approximate the fair value because of their short maturities.

We adopted ASC Topic 820 as of January 1, 2008 for financial instruments measured as fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
 
·  
Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
·  
Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
·  
Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
 
We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. As of March 31, 2015, all level 3 liabilities were measured and recorded at fair value.
 
The following is a reconciliation of the derivative liability for which Level 3 inputs were used in determining the approximate fair value:

Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding the method to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company currently has one reportable segment for financial reporting purposes, which represents the Company's core business.

2.     SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
Recently adopted pronouncements
On May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09,  Revenue from Contracts with Customers  (“ASU 2014-09”), which is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The new revenue recognition standard provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized.  The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 shall be applied retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption.  The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on the consolidated financial statements and has not yet determined the method by which the Company will adopt the standard in 2017.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs” this Update as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards (the Simplification Initiative). The Board received feedback that having different balance sheet presentation requirements for debt issuance costs and debt discount and premium creates unnecessary complexity. Recognizing debt issuance costs as a deferred charge (that is, an asset) also is different from the guidance in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), which requires that transaction costs be deducted from the carrying value of the financial liability and not recorded as separate assets. Additionally, the requirement to recognize debt issuance costs as deferred charges conflicts with the guidance in FASB Concepts Statement No. 6, Elements of Financial Statements, which states that debt issuance costs are similar to debt discounts and in effect reduce the proceeds of borrowing, thereby increasing the effective interest rate. Concepts Statement 6 further states that debt issuance costs cannot be an asset because they provide no future economic benefit. To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in this Update require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. For public business entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of adopting this ASU, if it is deemed to be applicable.

Management reviewed currently issued pronouncements during the three months ended March 31, 2015, and does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed financial statements.

3.     BUSINESS ACQUISITION

Solar United Network, Inc. (SUNworks)

On January 31, 2014, the Company acquired 100% of the total issued and outstanding stock of Solar United Network, Inc. (SUNworks) in a transaction accounted for under ASC 805, for cash in the amount of $1,061,750, and convertible promissory notes for $1,750,000. SUNworks provides solar photovoltaic installation and consulting services to residential, commercial and agricultural properties. The acquisition is designed to enhance our services for solar technology. SUNworks is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of SLTD.
 
Under the purchase method of accounting, the transactions were valued for accounting purposes at $2,811,750, which was the fair value of the Company at time of acquisition. The assets and liabilities of SUNworks were recorded at their respective fair values as of the date of acquisition. Since the Company determined there were no other separately identifiable intangible assets, any difference between the cost of the acquired entity and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. The acquisition date estimated fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of the following:

Key factors that make up the goodwill created by the transaction include knowledge and experience of the acquired workforce and infrastructure.

MD Energy, LLC (MDE)

On March 2, 2015, the Company acquired 100% of tangible and intangible assets of MD Energy, LLC (MDE) in a transaction accounted for under ASC 805, for cash in the amount of $850,000, and a convertible promissory notes for $2,650,000. MDE designs, arranges financing, monitors and maintains solar systems, but outsources the physical construction of the systems. The acquisition is designed to enhance our services for solar technology. MDE is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

Under the purchase method of accounting, the transactions were valued for accounting purposes at $3,500,000, which was the fair value of the Company at time of acquisition. Since the Company determined there were no other separately identifiable intangible assets, any difference between the cost of the acquired entity and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. The acquisition date estimated fair value of the consideration transferred consisted of the following:

The above estimated fair value of the intangible assets is based on a preliminary purchase price allocation prepared by management. As a result, during the preliminary purchase price allocation period, which may be up to one year from the business combination date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill.  After the preliminary purchase price allocation period, we record adjustments to assets acquired or liabilities assumed subsequent to the purchase price allocation period in our operating results in the period in which the adjustments were determined.

On January 29, 2014, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement providing for the sale of a 10% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of up to $100,000. Upon execution of the note, the Company received an initial advance of $90,000. The note was convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a price equal to a variable conversion price equal to the lesser of $0.338 per share, or fifty percent (50%) of the lowest trading price after the effective date.  On December 4, 2014, the Company issued 192,543 shares of common stock upon conversion of $60,000 in principal, plus interest of $5,079. As of December 31, 2014, the remaining balance was $30,000. The Company issued 97,633 shares of common stock upon conversion of remaining principal in the amount of $30,000, plus accrued interest of $3,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

On January 31, 2014, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement providing for the sale of a 10% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of up to $750,000, for consideration of $750,000. The proceeds were restricted and were used for the purchase of Solar United Network, Inc. The note was convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a price equal to a variable conversion price equal to the lesser of $1.30 per share, or fifty percent (50%) of the lowest trading price after the effective date. As of September 30, 2014, the note was exchanged for a new note with a fix price of $0.338, and convertible into shares of common stock.  Per ASC 815, the derivative liability on the note was extinguished and the new note was re-valued per ASC 470 as a beneficial conversion feature, which was expensed in the statement of operations during the prior year. The note matured on October 28, 2014, with an extension of three months through January 31, 2015. The Company recorded amortization of debt discount for the old and new note, which was recognized as interest expense in the total amount of $1,500,000 during the year ended December 31, 2014. The note was subsequently extended to June 30, 2016. The beneficial conversion feature on the extended terms was revalued and a charge of $60,362 was recognized as interest expense in the three month ended March 31, 2015.
 
On February 11, 2014, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement providing for the sale of a 10% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of up to $100,000.

At the time of issuance, the Company evaluated the financing transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory note was not afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its variable conversion rate. The notes had no explicit limit on the number of shares issuable so they did not meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards for equity classification.  The Company elected to recognize the note under paragraph 815-15-25-4, whereby, there would be a separation into a host contract and derivative instrument. The Company elected to initially and subsequently measure the note in its entirety at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. The derivative liability was adjusted periodically according to the stock price fluctuations.

5.     ACQUISITION CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES

On January 31, 2014, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement providing for the sale of four 4% convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1,750,000 as part of the consideration to acquire 100% of the total outstanding stock of SUN. The notes are convertible at any time after issuance into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock. The conversion price is $0.52 per share until March 30, 2015, and thereafter the conversion price will be the greater of $0.52 or 50% of the average closing price of the common stock during the ten (10) consecutive trading days following the submission of the conversion notice. The Notes are five (5) year notes and bear interest at the rate of 4% per annum. In February and March 2014, $625,000 of the notes was converted into 1,201,923 shares of common stock, leaving a remaining balance of $1,125,000 as of December 31, 2014. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company issued 528,846 shares of common stock upon conversion of principal in the amount of $275,000. The principal balance remaining as of March 31, 2015 is $850,000. The Company recorded amortization of the beneficial conversion feature as interest expense in the amount of $234,042, during the three months ended March 31, 2015.
 
On February 28, 2015, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement providing for the sale of a 4% convertible promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $2,650,000 as part of the consideration to acquire 100% of the total outstanding stock of MD Energy. The note is convertible into shares of common stock on or after each of the following dates: November 30, 2015, November 30, 2016 and November 30, 2017. The conversion price shall be $2.60 per share. Commencing on March 31, 2015, and on the last day of each quarter thereafter during the first two (2) years of the note, the Company will make quarterly interest only payments to shareholder for interest accrued on the Note during the quarter. Commencing with the quarter ending on June 30, 2017, the Company will make quarterly payments of interest accrued on the Note during the prior quarter plus $220,833, with the final payment of all outstanding principal and accrued but unpaid interest on the Note due and payable on February 28, 2020 (the maturity date). The Company recorded amortization of the beneficial conversion feature as interest expense in the amount of $112,534 during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

We evaluated the financing transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 470, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, and determined that the conversion feature of the convertible promissory note was afforded the exemption for conventional convertible instruments due to its fixed conversion rate. The note has an explicit limit on the number of shares issuable so they did meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards for equity classification.  The debt was issued with non-detachable conversion options that are beneficial to the investors at inception, because the conversion option has an effective strike price that is less than the market price of the underlying stock at the commitment date. The accounting for the beneficial conversion feature requires that the beneficial conversion feature be recognized by allocating the intrinsic value of the conversion option to additional paid-in-capital, resulting in a discount on the convertible notes, which will be amortized and recognized as interest expense.
 
6.     CAPITAL STOCK

On February 25, 2015, the Company effected a 26:1 reverse stock split on its shares of common stock. All share amounts have been retrospectively revised to reflect the twenty six-for-one (26:1) reverse stock split.

Each Unit consists of one share of the Company’s common stock and a warrant to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock (the “Warrants”). The shares of common stock and Warrants were immediately separable and were issued separately but sold together in the Offering. The Warrants are exercisable during the period commencing from the date of issuance and ending on March 9, 2020 at an exercise price of $4.15 per share of common stock (subject to adjustment under certain circumstances).  Total proceeds of the Solar3D offering were $12.45 million and the Company received net cash of approximately $11.6 million after deducting all fees and expenses.

During the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company issued 643,465 shares of common stock at prices per share ranging from $0.338 to $0.52 for conversion of principal for convertible promissory notes in the amount of $313,000, plus accrued interest payable of $3,833.

The remaining milestone is as follows, if the Company’s consolidated net profit, calculated in accordance to GAAP, equals or exceeds $2,000,000 for the trailing twelve month period, the Company will issue 384,615 shares of the Company’s common stock. We have not recognized any cost associated with the last milestone due to not being able to estimate the probability of it being achieved. As the performance goals are achieved, the shares shall become eligible for vesting and issuance.

Statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts constitute forward-looking statements.  Examples of forward-looking statements include statements relating to industry prospects, our future economic performance including anticipated revenues and expenditures, results of operations or financial position, and other financial items, our business plans and objectives, and may include certain assumptions that underlie forward-looking statements. Risks and uncertainties that may affect our future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements include, among other things, those listed under “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2015 and elsewhere in this quarterly report.
 
These risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to:
 
·  
our limited operating history;
·  
our ability to raise additional capital to meet our objectives;
·  
our ability to compete in the solar electricity industry;
·  
our ability to sell solar electricity systems;
·  
our ability to arrange financing for our customers;
·  
government incentive programs related to solar energy;
·  
our ability to increase the size of our company and manage growth;
·  
our ability to acquire and integrate other businesses;
·  
relationships with employees, consultants and suppliers; and
·  
the concentration of our business in one industry in one geographic area.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expects,” “intends,”  “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology.
 
These statements are subject to business and economic risk and reflect management’s current expectations, and involve subjects that are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. Actual events or results may differ materially. Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of these statements. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this quarterly report to conform these statements to actual results.
 
Business Introduction / Overview
 
Solar3D provides photo voltaic (“PV”) based power systems for the residential, commercial and agricultural markets in California and Nevada.  Through our two operating subsidiaries, SUNworks and MD Energy, described below, we design, arrange financing, integrate, install and manage systems ranging in size from 2kW (kilowatt) for residential loads to multi MW (megawatt) systems for larger commercial projects.  Commercial installations have included office buildings, manufacturing plants, warehouses, and agricultural facilities such as farms, wineries and dairies.  The Company provides a full range of installation services to our solar energy customers including design, system engineering, procurement, permitting, construction, grid connection, warranty, system monitoring and maintenance.
 
As of January 31, 2014, Solar3D, Inc. acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of SUNworks.  SUNworks is engaged in the business of the design, installation, and management of solar systems for commercial, agricultural, and residential customers in northern California.  SUNworks designs, finances, and installs systems ranging in size from 2KW (kilowatt) for residential loads to multi MW (megawatt) systems for larger commercial projects.  SUNworks currently employs approximately 100 personnel involved in the operations and administration of the business.  It also utilizes outside subcontractors to assist with providing solar systems to its customers.
 
As of March 2, 2015, Solar3D, Inc. (SLTD) acquired 100% of tangible and intangible assets of MD Energy, LLC (MDE) in a transaction accounted for under ASC 805, for cash in the amount of $850,000, and a three-year convertible promissory note for $2,650,000. MDE provides solar photovoltaic installation and consulting services to residential and commercial properties and focuses its operations on southern California.  Similar to SUNworks, MD Energy designs, arranges financing, monitors and maintains solar systems, but outsources the physical construction of the systems.. MDE currently employs approximately 6 personnel involved in the operations and administration of the business.  The acquisition is designed to enhance our services for solar technology. MDE is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of SLTD.
 

On February 25, 2015, the Company effected a 26:1 reverse stock split on its shares of common stock (with related adjustments to its outstanding options and warrants).

In addition to our core solar integrator business, Solar3D’s technology division has developed a patent-pending 3-dimensional solar cell technology that we believe has the potential to increase PV conversion efficiency thereby reducing the cost of the electricity generated.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, deferred tax assets and fair value computation using the Black Scholes option pricing model.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions, such as the trading value of our common stock and estimated future undiscounted cash flows, that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions; however, we believe that our estimates, including those for the above-described items, are reasonable.
 
Use of Estimates
 
In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, management utilizes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  These estimates and assumptions relate to recording net revenue, collectability of accounts receivable, useful lives and impairment of tangible and intangible assets, accruals, income taxes, inventory realization, stock-based compensation expense and other factors.  Management believes it has exercised reasonable judgment in deriving these estimates. Consequently, a change in conditions could affect these estimates.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its property and equipment and any identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The test for impairment is required to be performed by management at least annually. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted operating cash flow expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
Our cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable are stated at cost which approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Revenues and related costs on construction contracts are recognized using the “percentage of completion method” of accounting in accordance with ASC 605-35, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production Type Contracts (“ASC 605-35”). Under this method, contract revenues and related expenses are recognized over the performance period of the contract in direct proportion to the costs incurred as a percentage of total estimated costs for the entirety of the contract. Costs include direct material, direct labor, subcontract labor and any allocable indirect costs. All un-allocable indirect costs and corporate general and administrative costs are charged to the periods as incurred. However, in the event a loss on a contract is foreseen, the Company will recognize the loss as it is determined.

The Asset, “Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings”, represents revenues recognized in excess of amounts billed on contracts in progress. The Liability, “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings”, represents billings in excess of revenues recognized on contracts in progress. At March 31, 2015 and 2014, the costs in excess of billings balance was $1,564,543 and $1,276,677, and the billings in excess of costs balance was $1,143,189 and $891,633, respectively.
 
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2015 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2014
 
Three months of SUNworks operations and one month of MD Energy operations were consolidated into the Company’s financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2015.   Two months of SUNworks operations and none of MD Energy operations were consolidated into the Company’s financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2014.
 
REVENUE AND COST OF SALES
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company had revenue of $5,658,753 compared to $1,047,415 for the three months ended March 31, 2014.  Cost of sales for the three months ended March 31, 2015, was $3,717,292 compared to $772,057 for the prior three months ended March 31, 2014. Revenue and cost of sales increased primarily due to SUNworks year over year sales growth plus an additional month of SUNworks and MD Energy operations.  

Gross Profit for the Company increased by $1,666,103 to $1,941,461 compared to $275,358 for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.   The Gross Profit percentage increased to 34% in the first three months of 2015 compared to 26% for the first three months of 2014 due to improved volume improved purchasing efficiencies and the profitability of projects.  Approximately 2/3 of the first quarter 2015 revenue was from sales to the commercial market, including the agricultural market, and approximately 1/3 of revenue was from sales to the residential market.
 
SELLING AND MARKETING EXPENSES
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2015, the Company had selling and marketing expenses (“S&M”) expenses of $1,112,729, compared to $185,480 for the three months ended March 31, 2014.  S&M expenses increased primarily due to SUNworks increased activity to promote growth plus an additional one month of SUNworks and one month of MD Energy expenses.  Selling and marketing expenses include expenditures for our specially-designed marketing efforts and tracking systems in place that enable us to attract new customers at a low cost and higher conversion rate than what we believe to be the industry average.  We use several marketing tools and business strategies to differentiate itself from its competitors and attract new customers.
 
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
 
General and administrative (“G&A”) expenses increased by $854,371 to $1,809,820, for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $955,449 for the three months ended March 31, 2014.  G&A expenses increased primarily due to the expenses incurred by Solar3D in connection with our March stock offering and simultaneous uplisting to the Nasdaq stock exchange with expenses of approximately $1.0 million plus additional one month of expenses for our SUNworks and one month of MD Energy, professional fees in the amount of approximately $30,000 incurred in connection with the purchase of MD Energy partially offset by decreased non-cash stock compensation expense of approximately $200,000.
 
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
 
Research and development (“R&D”) costs for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 were $25,029 and $28,839, respectively.  Our research costs have been for research and patent work for a 3-dimensional solar cell.  The novel 3D cell is still in the development stage.  
 
OTHER INCOME/(EXPENSES)
 
Other expenses decreased by $2,750,593 to $391,636 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $3,142,229 for the three months ended March 31, 2014.  The decrease was primarily the result of a gain on change in fair value of the derivative liability instruments of $68,521 in 2015 compared to a loss of $1,838,632 in 2014 and decreased interest expense of $456,655 for the first quarter of 2015 compared to $1,303,711 for the first quarter of 2014.  The derivative liability was adjusted periodically according to the stock price fluctuations.  Certain promissory notes were amended in 2014 to reduce our exposure to derivative liabilities.
 
 
NET LOSS
 
Net loss decreased by $2,612,844 to $1,403,092 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to a loss of $4,037,936 for the prior three months ended March 31, 2014.  The decrease in net loss was primarily the result of a reduction in the loss on fair value of derivative liabilities of $1,907,153, decreased interest expense of $847,056, and increased Gross Profit of $1,666,103, offset by an increase of selling and marketing expenses of $927,249 and an increase of $854,371 G&A expenses of which approximately $1 million was associated with the stock offering, uplisting to Nasdaq and fees associated with the purchase of MD Energy.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
As of March 31, 2015, we had a working capital surplus of $10,521,360 as compared to a working capital deficit of $742,806 at December 31, 2014.  This increase in working capital surplus was due primarily to the March net stock offering proceeds with cash increasing by $10,816,357.
 
Cash flow used in operating activities was $256,276 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, as compared to cash used of $556,392 for the three months ended March 31, 2014.  This $300,116 decrease of cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to a reduced Net Loss by $2,612,844 offset by a $1,907,153 reduction in derivative liability amortization and $844,690 less debt discount recognized as interest expense.
 
Cash used in investing activities was $505,867 for the three months ended March 31, 2015, compared to $575,392 for the three months ended March 31, 2014.  The decrease in the use of cash in investing activities was due primarily to lower net cash paid for the purchase of MD Energy compared to the purchase of SUNworks.
 
Net cash provided from financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $11,578,500 as compared to cash provided of $1,465,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014.  The increase was due to an increase in equity financing through the issuance of new common shares.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity, or capital expenditures.
 
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
 
Not Applicable.
 
 
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)).  Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud.  A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Due to 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.  To address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
