REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACOUNTING FIRM
The Board
of Directors
California
Living Waters, Inc. and Subsidiary
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of California Living
Waters, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2008 and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash
flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our
audit.
We
conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In
our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of California Living
Waters, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2008 and the results
of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
As
more fully discussed in Note 11, on October 31, 2009, the Company entered into a
stock purchase agreement with General Environmental Management, Inc. (GEM), a
publicly held company, pursuant to which GEM acquired all of the issued and
outstanding common stock of the Company.

CALIFORNIA
LIVING WATERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES
TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR
THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND
FOR
THE TEN MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2009
NOTE 1
ORGANIZATION
AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Nature of
Business
The
Company’s business is performed primarily through its wholly owned subsidiary,
Santa Clara Waste Water Company dba Southern California Waste
Water.
Santa
Clara Waste Water Company ("SCWW") was incorporated on April 16, 1959 in the
State of California. The Company's principal business activity is providing
wastewater treatment for companies and haulers in Ventura County, California,
and in adjacent counties.
Basis of
Presentation
The
interim financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
and in the opinion of management, include all adjustments which, of a normal
recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position,
results of operations, and cash flows for the period presented. The results for
the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire
year.
NOTE 2
SUMMARY OF
PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of
Estimates
The
Company's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The
preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates
and judgments that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. The Company bases its estimates and judgments on historical
experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes are
reasonable under the circumstances. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates
and judgments in several areas, including those related to the recoverability of
accounts receivable, costs to dispose of wastewater on hand and the useful lives
of property and equipment and intangible assets. These estimates are based on
management's knowledge about current events and expectations about actions the
Company may undertake in the future. Actual results could differ materially from
those estimates.
6
Basis of
Accounting
The
Company reorganized under a Chapter 11 bankruptcy of SCWW proceeding during 2004
and adopted fresh-start reporting in accordance with the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of Position
90-7, Financial Reporting by
Entities in Reorganization Under the Bankruptcy Code. Accordingly, all
assets and liabilities were restated to reflect their reorganization value,
which approximated fair value at the date of reorganization. The financial
statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. Under the
accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are
recorded at the time the liabilities are incurred.
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue at the time its customers unload untreated wastewater
at the Company's facility. Concurrent with the recognition of revenue, the
Company records the estimated costs to treat and dispose of the wastewater on
hand.
Accounts
Receivable
Accounts
receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. Management
reviews accounts receivable on a regular basis to determine if any such amounts
will potentially be uncollected, based on contracted terms and how recently
payments have been received. The Company includes any balances that are
determined to be uncollectible in its allowance for doubtful accounts. After all
attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off.
Based on the information available, management believes the Company's accounts
receivable, net of allowance for doubtful accounts, are
collectible.
Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
The
carrying amount of certain of the Company's financial instruments, including
accounts receivable
and accounts payable, approximates fair value due to the relatively short
maturity of such
instruments. The carrying value of the Company's notes payable approximates fair
value based on
prevailing interest rates.
Intangible
Assets
The
Company accounts for intangible assets pursuant guidance of Financial Accounting
Standards Board. In accordance with this guidance, intangibles with definite
lives continue to be amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of their
estimated useful lives or contractual terms. Intangibles with
indefinite lives are evaluated at least annually for impairment by comparing the
asset’s estimated fair values with its carrying value, based on cash flow
methodology. If any losses are determined to exist they are recorded
in the period when such impairment is determined. Based upon management’s
assessment, there are no indicators of impairment of its intangibles at October
31, 2009 and December 31, 2008.
7
Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets
The
Financial Accounting Standards Board established guidelines regarding when
impairment losses on long-lived assets, which include property and equipment,
should be recognized and how impairment losses should be
measured. This statement also provides a single accounting model for
long-lived assets to be disposed of and significantly changes the criteria that
would have to be met to classify an asset as held-for-sale. The Company
periodically reviews, at least annually, such assets for possible impairment and
expected losses. If any losses are determined to exist they are recorded in the
period when such impairment is determined. Based upon management’s assessment,
there are no indicators of impairment of its long lived assets at October 31,
2009 or December 31, 2008.
Concentration of Credit
Risk
The
Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit
risk consist principally of cash and trade receivables. The Company
places its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial
institutions. However, cash balances have exceeded FDIC insured
levels at various times. The Company has not experienced any losses
in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk in
cash.
The
Company’s trade receivables result primarily from waste water treatment
services, and the concentration of credit risk is limited to a broad customer
base located throughout Southern California.
Sales to
one customer comprised approximately 24% of sales for the year ended December
31, 2008. Sales to another customer comprised approximately 22% and 26% of sales
for the periods ended October 31, 2009 and 2008.
Amounts
receivable from one customer comprised 22% of total accounts receivable at
December 31, 2008. Amounts receivable from another customer comprised 24% of
total accounts receivable at October 31, 2009.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are recorded under the liability method. Under the liability
method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future
years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their
financial reporting amounts at each yearend, based on enacted tax laws and
statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are
expected to affect taxable income. Temporary differences for the Company include
the carrying value of property and equipment and intangible assets, and net
operating loss carry forwards.
Property and
Equipment
Property
and equipment acquired prior to the reorganization under Chapter 11 of SCWW are
stated at the fair value of those assets as of the date of reorganization.
Effective January 1, 2005, newly acquired property and equipment are stated at
cost. The Company provides for depreciation using the straight-line method over
the useful lives of related assets as follows:

Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
In April
2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about
Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1). FSP FAS 107-1
and APB 28-1 amend SFAS No. 107, “Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial
Instruments”, to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments
for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual
financial statements. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 also amend APB Opinion No.
28, “Interim Financial
Reporting”, to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at
interim reporting periods. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 are effective for interim
reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for
periods ending after March 15, 2009. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 does not require
disclosures for earlier periods presented for comparative purposes at initial
adoption. In periods after initial adoption, FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 requires
comparative disclosures only for periods ending after initial adoption. The
Company does not expect the changes associated with adoption of FSP FAS 107-1
and APB 28-1 will have a material effect on its financial statements and
disclosures.
In June
2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on accounting standards
codification and the hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles.” The
FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (“Codification”) has become the source
of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by
nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in
accordance with GAAP. All existing accounting standard documents are superseded
by the Codification and any accounting literature not included in the
Codification will not be authoritative. However, rules and interpretive releases
of the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued under the authority of
federal securities laws will continue to be sources of authoritative GAAP for
SEC registrants. The FASB authoritative guidance is effective for interim and
annual reporting periods ending after September 15, 2009. Therefore, beginning
with our quarter ending September 30, 2009, all references made by it to GAAP in
its consolidated financial statements now use the new Codification numbering
system. The Codification does not change or alter existing GAAP and, therefore,
it does not have an impact on our financial position, results of operations and
cash flows.
On July
1, 2009, the Company adopted authoritative guidance issued by the FASB on
business combinations. The guidance retains the fundamental requirements that
the acquisition method of accounting (previously referred to as the purchase
method of accounting) be used for all business combinations, but requires a
number of changes, including changes in the way assets and liabilities are
recognized and measured as a result of business combinations. It also requires
the capitalization of in-process research and development at fair value and
requires the expensing of acquisition-related costs as incurred. We will apply
this guidance to business combinations completed after July 1,
2009. Adoption of the new guidance did not have a material impact on
our financial statements.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on revenue recognition that
will become effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2010, with earlier
adoption permitted. Under the new guidance on arrangements that
include software elements, tangible products that have software components that
are essential to the functionality of the tangible product will no longer be
within the scope of the software revenue recognition guidance, and
software-enabled products will now be subject to other relevant revenue
recognition guidance. We believe adoption of this new guidance will
not have a material impact on our financial statements.
9
In May
2009, the FASB issued new requirements for reporting subsequent events. These
requirements set forth the period after the balance sheet date during which
management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may
occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the
circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions
occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements, and
disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that
occurred after the balance sheet date. Disclosure of the date through which an
entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date is also
required.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging
Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not or are not believed by
management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future
consolidated financial statements.

PERMITS AND
FRANCHISES
As of the
date of reorganization the Company had permits and franchise agreements. The
permits
and franchise agreements were valued based on the projected net operating income
of the five year
period following the reorganization, discounted at 12%. The permits allow the
pipeline to connect
to the City of Oxnard water works system and have a five year life, although
they are renewable
indefinitely, in five year increments, at minimal costs. The franchises are
related to the use of
the pipeline and have a 20 year life. The total value of the permits and
franchises are being
amortized over a remaining contractual life of the franchise agreements of 14
years commencing
at the date of reorganization. The value of the permits and franchises as of the
date of
reorganization was $2,252,654. Accumulated amortization of the permits and
franchises was $647,193
and $781,801 as of December 31,2008 and October 31, 2009,
respectively.

COMMITMENTS AND
CONTINGENCIES
ENVIRONMENTAL
To
perform wastewater treatment at its site, SCWW is required to possess a permit
to treat regulated waste and air quality permits to monitor air emissions from
equipment and certain processing activities. To treat Non-RCRA or
“California-Only” hazardous wastewaters in the State of California the Company
is required to possess a Transportable Treatment Unit (TTU) permit as issued by
the Department of Toxic Substances Control. A TTU permit is generally not
required in other States because the wastewater being treated is considered
non-hazardous. Air permits are generally required to notify Air
Quality Management Districts of most States of specific sources and pollutants
from processing equipment and activities causing air emissions.
Although
compliance with State and Federal laws and regulations may affect the costs of
the Company’s operations, compliance costs to date have not been
material.
LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS
The
Company is party to legal proceedings that arise through the normal course of
business. The outcomes of these proceedings are not expected to have
a material impact on these financial statements.
PERMITS
Under the
terms of an agreement with the City of Oxnard, the City may terminate the
Company's right to discharge waste water into its sewerage system with 90 days
written notice. The Company has maintained active permits with the City of
Oxnard since its inception in 1959.

INCOME
TAXES
Applying
domestic federal statutory rates to pre-tax income is mainly related to state
income taxes. At October 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the deferred income tax
liabilities were mainly attributable to differences in the bases of property and
equipment and intangible assets of $9,080,823 and $8,992,166 respectively,
offset by the benefit of future use net operating loss carry forwards. As of
October 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company had federal loss carry
forwards of approximately $3,485,732 and $3,397,075 which are limited under
Section 382 of the Internal Revenue code, and expire between 2010 and
2020.
NOTE 11
