Corporate History

UTEC INC., formerly Lyon Capital Venture Corp., is a Nevada corporation organized on November 8, 1993 as a “For Profit” corporation for the purpose of engaging in any lawful activity.  The Company was in the development stage through December 31, 2006.  The year ended December 31, 2007, is the first year during which the Company is considered an operating company and was no longer considered in a development stage.  On January 10, 2007, the Company purchased 100% of the shares of UTEC Corporation, Inc from Energetic Systems Inc. LLC, for a total consideration of 22,500,000 of the Company’s par value $0.001 common shares and 20,000 of the Company’s par value $0.001 preferred shares.  The Company also issued 2,525,000 common shares in finder’s fees.

The Company’s business was to offer state of the art testing and analysis to clients worldwide.  The Company operated a chemical research and development laboratory near Riverton, Kansas, which specialized in commercial explosives development and analysis. The Company also operated a destructive test facility near Hallowell, Kansas, which specializes in determining the detonating characteristics of commercial explosives.

In 2007, the Company licensed technology covering the use of cold plasma oxidizer technology for the destruction of solid and liquid hazardous chemicals and biological waste.  During 2007 and 2008, the Company worked to validate the technology and prepare a business plan for its commercialization.
 
 
 

 
 
In April 2009, the Company divested its commercial explosives development, analysis, testing and manufacturing business (“Legacy Business”) to eliminate the need to inject new capital into the Company to support this business, and concentrate on raising the funds necessary to commercialize its hazardous waste destruction business in exchange for the 22,500,000 shares of its common stock originally issued to Energetic Systems Inc. LLC .

Business of Issuer

For more than 30 years, the predecessor companies to the Company’s subsidiary have been involved in the research and development of commercial explosive products used by the construction, quarrying and mining industries in North America and elsewhere in the world.  The legacy business of the company actually had its start in the commercial explosives business of Gulf Oil Limited, and one of the sites currently occupied by the Company is a former coal mine which was mined by a subsidiary of Gulf Oil, and served as Gulf Explosives bulk truck garage, etc.

The Company operated three marketing units, all under the management of Dr. Fortunato Villamagna, Managing Director and CEO.

1. Energetic Materials, which includes the development and testing of commercial explosives.

2. Specialty Chemicals and Raw Materials, which distributes chemicals that are used in commercial explosives; and

3. Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction, a marketing unit that utilizes a new patented technology for the destruction of biological waste and other hazardous chemicals and military munitions.  This marketing unit is commercializing the Cold Plasma Oxidizer Technology for the total and complete destruction of solid and liquid hazardous chemicals and biological waste.

In March of 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with Ceramatec Inc., of Salt Lake City, Utah, and licensed the world–wide exclusive rights to manufacture and market a Waste Destruction System utilizing the Cold Plasma Oxidizer Technology.

A decision was made to sell the legacy business to Energetic Systems, Inc., LLC., and retain within the UTEC consolidated group the Ceramatec license and waste destruction assets developed over the past two years.  This will minimize the immediate cash requirements of the company.  The sale was completed on April 26, 2009, effective as of April 1, 2009.  UTEC, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary UTEC Corporation will continue as public companies, retaining the assets of the waste destruction business.

Following the sale, the companies do not have any significant operations to fund, but do have some liabilities related to the purchase and development of the waste destruction units that need to be satisfied within a few months of the sale of the legacy business in order to continue as a going concern.  In addition, UTEC Inc. needs to link up with a financial partner capable of funding the business plan for the waste destruction business.  Management believes this can be accomplished and has considering various options to acquire this funding, but has not yet entered into an agreement to do so.
 
 
 

 

The Hazardous Chemicals & Biological Waste Destruction business is developmental and currently does not sell any units. In fact, the business will not sell these units in the future but instead plans to lease them. The product names and trade names will be disclosed once complete systems are ready for sale. The Company anticipates these products entering the market in 2010.

On September 2, 2009 the Company received a termination notice from Ceramatec that this agreement was cancelled for non-performance.  The Company had issued 850,000 of its $.001 par value common shares to Ceramatec that Ceramatec could sell starting two years from the date of the agreement.  These unregistered shares were issued under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as they were transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.  The Company has received assurances that the 765,000 shares still held by Ceramatec issued under this agreement will be returned to treasury.

On October 1, 2009 the Company purchased 100% of the outstanding shares of C2R Energy Commodities Inc for the issuance of 4,050,000 of the Company’s $0.001 par value common shares. These unregistered shares were issued under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as they were transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.

On October 1, 2009, the Board of Directors asked Suresh Subramanian to step down as President and  J. Curt Stafford to step down as CFO of the Company pursuant to a condition of the Companys agreement with CR2 Energy Commodities Corp.  Effective October 1, 2009, the Board of Directors appointed Fortunato Villamagna President and CEO; Kenneth B. Liebscher as Secretary and Howard Bouch as CFO.

C2R Energy is a company with expertise in energetic materials, reactive chemical intermediates, hazardous materials, bio-fuels and bio-energy handling systems. The combined companies immediate goals include:

1)
Commercializing a simple way for biodiesel plants to make their own methylate catalyst (aka: sodium methylate, sodium methoxide, methylate, alkoxide) on-site and on-demand, reducing raw material and processing costs.
2)
Commercializing a simple way to clean glycerin streams through in-line and on-demand removal of salts, improving the efficiency of production facilities and reducing costs.

In addition, we can provide solutions for the use of crude glycerin, eliminating the need for costly purification (capex) methods while maintaining attractive pricing for the sale of the crude glycerin. 

The Waste Destruction Business provides commercial solutions for the processing of hazardous chemical and biological waste in-house and on demand at customer sites.  In considering the entire waste destruction business and analyzing where the opportunities could be found, we concluded that competing in the municipal, restaurant or household waste market where landfill costs dominate the pricing structure would not be advantageous.  While costs using our system would have been lower than the conventional collect-package-haul-landfill cycle, the greatest profit could be made by allowing customers to destroy their own hazardous material streams discretely and in-house. 
 
 
 

 
 
Current practices among customers producing wastes in the energetic materials, chemical / pharmaceutical industry and biological / hospital red bag waste area is to use conventional haul-destroy companies to eliminate the waste.  The model for our waste destruction segment is to provide customers with On-Site On-Demand Hazardous Waste Destruction.
 
 Hazardous Chemicals & Biological Waste Destruction

Effective February 1, 2007, the company entered into a License and Supply Agreement with Ceramatec, Inc. of Salt Lake City, Utah (“License”) for a world wide exclusive royalty-free license to practice Cermatec’s Gild Arc Plasma Oxidizer technology for the destruction of solid and liquid hazardous chemicals and biological waste.  The license agreement with Ceramatec gave the Company sole marketing and sales rights to this unique technology as it related to the hazardous waste destruction market segment. The Ceramatec agreement was a simple licensing and supplies agreement, which stipulated that in order to maintain exclusivity a minimum number of units must be ordered from Ceramatec every year. The number for 2009 is two, and the number for 2010 is four. If any of the conditions of the agreement are not met, the license reverts to non-exclusive, but the Company retains all other rights.

On September 30, 2009, this contract with Ceramatec was cancelled.  As of September 30, 2009, the Company had not made any purchases from Ceramatec against the minimum obligations for 2009, and the Company owed Ceramatec $111,457 with respect to purchases during 2008 which is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

As the conditions of the agreement were not met, the license reverted to non-exclusive, but we retain all other rights.

The Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction Business Unit provides commercial solutions for the processing of chemical and biological wastes into carbon dioxide and water.  The Company’s advanced waste treatment technologies are suitable for a variety of industrial, hazardous, municipal, and clinical waste streams..

Incineration, the standard disposal method for solid hospital wastes, gives off carbon dioxide and nitrogen containing gases that pollute the atmosphere.  Utilizing the Company’s waste destruction technology provides a sophisticated waste management program that addresses the need for waste destruction, while at the same time avoiding the production of toxic by-products. Compact size, lightweight, excellent environmental performance and ease of operation are among the many advantages this technology offers.

The Company’s methodology of destroying waste will provide for a unique, cost and logistically effective method of solving this growing problem.  Additionally, this technology can be considered as “green technology”, when compared with traditional methods.
 
 
 

 
 
The added potential of extracting useable work or energy when this technology is used in the ‘exothermic’ mode (heat/energy is released) is an added benefit in that the excess energy in the form of heat can be utilized within other facility operations.

The overall waste disposal/destruction industry is and has been a growth industry for many years.  New and more rigorous regulations are coming into effect each and every year.  The new and novel aspect of our particular method and system of hazardous waste destruction has a number of specific advantages over traditional methods:

1.  Hazardous waste can be treated/dealt with “on-site”

2.  Units are compact, requiring only a small footprint

3.  Units can be scaled up or down depending upon the volume of material to be destructed

4.  The cost per unit is relatively inexpensive as compared to the material being consumed or the cost of conventional removal/destruction

5.  There is currently no direct competition that replicates this method of hazardous waste destruction.

6.  This method can be considered as “green” technology

7.  Operational modes can include the extraction of energy (exothermic mode) for use within other aspects of an industrial site.

The Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction Marketing Unit provides commercial solutions for the processing of chemical and biological wastes into carbon dioxide and water.  

As such, costs of compliance with environmental laws, ongoing testing, and reporting requirements will be borne by the customers who lease the company’s equipment. Environmental costs to the company are limited to consulting activities the company needs to undertake to provide its customers (who may not have sophisticated in-house environmental groups) with regulatory guidelines required by the state and federal authorities, plus testing during start-up and commissioning. To date total consulting and testing costs have been less than $10,000 for the past 18 months, and are not expected to materially impact revenues in the future.
 
The preferred method of sales and marketing the units will be to lease the units themselves.  This is expected to be attractive to many customers in that the initial monetary outlay is reduced.  Further, this approach affords an ongoing close relationship between the end-use customers to ensure efficient use of the system.
 
The lease price will be a fee for each pound of waste material destroyed by the unit.

 
 

 
 
Manufacturing Highlights

Manufacturing the Company’s Waste Disposal Units, which incorporates the Cold Plasma Oxidizer technology will involve the supply of certain key parts by the Licensor, with final fabrication and assembly by contract engineering fabricators according to the Company’s specifications.  The Company’s engineers will provide actual design, assembly specifications, manufacturing and customer installation oversight.  The fabrication of the BETA waste destruction units is being done in-house, with some off-the-shelf components being purchased from domestic companies and some of the fabrication being outsourced to fabrication shops in the Kansas area.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

2007 was the first year of operation for the Company, after it acquired the UTEC Corporation from Energetic Systems Inc, LLC.  In 2007, the Company was organized into three marketing units, Energetic Materials, Specialty Chemicals and Raw Materials and Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction.  The Company’s historical legacy business was primarily constituted by the first two marketing units and almost exclusively within the commercial explosives market.  Revenue comparisons are included from these two activities.

The new marketing unit, Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction was in a development stage through June of 2009, and had no commercial revenues.  Focus has been on licensing and validation of the Cold Plasma Oxidizer technology, and on the development of the Company’s Waste Destruction System, identification of potential markets, and preparation of its business plan.  This business unit was structured in order to pursue commercialization of Cold Plasma Oxidizer waste destruction systems during 2009.
 
 
 

 

During the latter part of 2008, the Directors and Management conducted a review of the Companys business prospects and concluded that the legacy activities of UTEC Corporation were not sufficient to fund development and commercialization of the waste destruction business.  Consequently, the Directors and Management began exploring various means to continue the growth of the business and fund the final development and commercialization of the waste destruction technology licensed from Ceramatec.  A decision was made to sell the legacy business to Energetic Systems, Inc., LLC., and retain within the UTEC consolidated group the Ceramatec license and waste destruction assets developed over the past two years.  The effect of this will be to simplify and focus the activities of the Company on the waste destruction business, eliminate the need to inject additional cash required to fund the legacy business, and thereby make the Company more attractive to potential lenders and investors.  

The sale was completed on April 26, 2009, with effect from April 1, 2009.  UTEC, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary UTEC Corporation will continue as public companies, retaining the assets of the waste destruction business.

On September 2, 2009 the Company received a termination notice from Ceramatec that this agreement was cancelled for non-performance.  The Company had issued 850,000 of its $.001 par value common shares to Ceramatec that Ceramatec could sell starting two years from the date of the agreement.  These unregistered shares were issued under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as they were transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.  The Company has received assurances that the 765,000 shares still held by Ceramatec issued under this agreement will be returned to treasury.

On October 1, 2009 the Company purchased 100% of the outstanding shares of C2R Energy Commodities Inc for the issuance of 4,050,000 of the Company’s $0.001 par value common shares. These unregistered shares were issued under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as they were transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering

Revenues

Revenues from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2009 were $-0.  The Company divested all assets that generated revenue in the period ended June 30, 2009 as part of the sale of the legacy business.

Expenses

Expenses from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were $1,021,592 and $3,462.  The majority of the remaining expenses are composed of $601,250 and $-0- in compensation to officers of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.  The Company also recorded a one-time write-down of its intangible assets of $121,242 during the year ended December 31, 2009.

Discontinued Operations

In April 2009, the Company sold its commercial explosives development, analysis, testing and manufacturing business (“Legacy Business”) in a non-cash transaction to a related party in exchange for stock in the Company totaling 22,500,000 shares.  The stock was cancelled in July of 2009.

Liabilities

The Company’s liabilities primarily consist of current amounts payable or accrued to trade creditors, and amounts owing to related parties for management fees, expenses, and shared services.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2009, the company had $9,453 cash on hand.  During 2008 and 2009, cash flows from the legacy business, supplemented with short-term borrowings from related parties, was used to support the waste destruction business development program.  Following a general business review at the end of 2008, management has determined that the legacy business cannot support both its ongoing operations as well as the development of the waste destruction business on its operations alone.   Consequently, the board of directors, in consultation with management and major shareholders, took the following step. In April 2009, the Company sold its commercial explosives development, analysis, testing and manufacturing business (“Legacy Business”) in a non-cash transaction to a related party in exchange for stock in the Company totaling 22,500,000 shares.  The stock was cancelled in July of 2009.

Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to UTEC management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2008, due to a lack of segregation of duties and not having an audit committee.

Managements Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.  Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is supported by written policies and procedures that:  (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
 
 

 

The Company’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements.  All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations which may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.  Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008.  In making this assessment, management used the framework set forth in the report entitled “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or (“COSO”).  The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a company’s internal control system, including (i) the control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication, and (v) monitoring.  Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2008, due to a lack of segregation of duties and not having an audit committee.

Management believes that this material weakness did not have an effect on our financial results due primarily to the transparency of, ready access to and periodic review of the bank accounts and bank statements by Management and Directors in addition to the audit prepared by the auditor.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report, that has materially affected, or is reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Code of Ethics
 
Effective April 1, 2008, our company’s Board of Directors adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to, among other persons, our company’s CEO, CFO and secretary (being our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), as well as persons performing similar functions. As adopted, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics sets forth written standards that are designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

1.
Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
2.
Full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the Securities and Exchange Commission and in other public communications made by us;
3.
Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
4.
The prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics; and
5.
Accountability for adherence to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics requires, among other things, that all of our company’s Senior Officers commit to timely, accurate and consistent disclosure of information; that they maintain confidential information; and that they act with honesty and integrity.
 
In addition, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics emphasizes that all employees, and particularly Senior Officers, have a responsibility for maintaining financial integrity within our company, consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, and federal and state securities laws. Any Senior Officer who becomes aware of any incidents involving financial or accounting manipulation or other irregularities, whether by witnessing the incident or being told of it, must report it to our company. Any failure to report such inappropriate or irregular conduct of others is to be treated as a severe disciplinary matter. It is against our company policy to retaliate against any individual who reports in good faith the violation or potential violation of our company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics by another.
 
Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2008 as an Exhibit to our Form10. We will provide a copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to any person without charge, upon request. Requests can be sent to: UTEC, Inc, 7230 Indian Creek Ln., Ste 201, Las Vegas, NV 89149

Item 14. Principal Accounting Fees and Services.
 
On Nov. 2, 2009, the accounting firm of Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC was engaged as the Registrant’s new independent registered public account firm. The Board of Directors of the Registrant and the Registrant’s Audit Committee approved of the disengagement of Seale and Beers, CPAs and the engagement of Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC as its independent auditor.  Seale and Beers, CPAs had never performed any work for the Company.

Seale and Beers, CPA’s accountant’s report on the financial statements for either of the past two years did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles as Seale and Beers, CPA’s did not provide any financial statements.
 
 
 

 
 
During the registrant’s two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through Nov. 2, 2009, there were no disagreements with Seale and Beers, CPAs whether or not resolved, on any matter of accounting  principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to Seale and Beers, CPAs satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report on the registrant’s financial statements.

For the years ended December, 2008 and 2007, and through the date of this Form 10-K, there have been no disagreements with Seale and Beers, CPAs  on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to Seale and Beers, CPAs’  satisfaction would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their reports. For the years ended December 30, 2008 and 2007, and through the date of this Form    8-K, there were no reportable events as that term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Company has provided Seale and Beers with the disclosures it is making herein no later than the day that the disclosures are filed with the Commission.  The Company requested Seale and Beers to furnish it a letter addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree.  The letter received from Seale and Beers stating no disagreements was filed as a Form 8K November 12, 2009.

During the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, and through November 2, 2009 (the date Sadler Gibb & Associates LLC was appointed), the Company did not consult Sadler Gibb & Associates with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, or any other matters or reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.

POLICY ON AUDIT COMMITTEE
 
Among its other duties, the Audit Committee is solely responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. Pursuant to the Audit Committee’s charter, the Chairman of the Audit Committee has been delegated responsibility to review and pre-approve audit and permissible non-audit services to be provided by our independent registered public accounting firm. The Chairman of the Audit Committee then reports such pre-approvals to the full Audit Committee at its next regularly scheduled meeting. In accordance with this pre-approval policy, management communicates, on an ongoing basis, specific projects and categories of service for which the advance approval of the Audit Committee is requested. The Audit Committee Chairman reviews these requests and advises management whether the engagement of the independent registered public accounting firm is approved. On a periodic basis, management subsequently reports to the Audit Committee regarding the actual spending for particular projects and in connection with categories of services.
 
Management is responsible for the financial reporting process, including the system of internal controls, and for the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for auditing those financial statements. The members of the Audit Committee are not professionally engaged in the practice of accounting or auditing and their functions are not intended to duplicate or to certify the activities of management and the independent registered public accounting firm. Rather, the members of the Audit Committee rely, without independent verification, on the information provided to them and on the representations made by management and the independent registered public accounting firm.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any of the Company’s previous or future filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that might incorporate filings made by the Company, including this proxy statement, in whole or in part, the following Audit Committee Report shall not be deemed to be “soliciting material” or to be incorporated by reference into any prior or future filings made by the Company.

We have reviewed and discussed with management the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
Based on the reviews and discussions with the audit group, we have recommended to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements referred to above be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors
UTEC, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of UTEC, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.  The consolidated financial statements of UTEC, Inc. as of December 31, 2008, were audited by other auditors whose report dated March 31, 2009, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.

We conduct 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 financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the 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 provides 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 UTEC, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Business Activity
UTEC INC., formerly Lyon Capital Venture Corp., is a Nevada corporation organized on November 8, 1993 as a “For Profit” corporation for the purpose of engaging in any lawful activity.  The Company was in the development stage through December 31, 2006.  The year ended December 31, 2007, is the first year during which the Company is considered an operating company and was no longer considered in a development stage.  On January 10, 2007, the Company purchased 100% of the shares of UTEC Corporation, Inc.   In 2007, the Company licensed technology covering the use of cold plasma oxidizer technology for the destruction of solid and liquid hazardous chemicals and biologicals.  During 2007 and 2008, the Company worked to validate the technology and prepare a business plan for its commercialization.

In April 2009, the Company divested its commercial explosives development, analysis, testing and manufacturing business to eliminate the need to inject new capital into the Company to support this business, and concentrate on raising the funds necessary to commercialize its hazardous waste destruction business.  At this time, the Company re-entered the development stage.

Prior to the divestiture, the Company’s business was to offer state of the art testing and analysis to clients worldwide.  The Company operated a chemical research and development laboratory near Riverton, Kansas, which specialized in commercial explosives development and analysis. The Company also operated a destructive test facility near Hallowell, Kansas, which specialized in determining the detonating characteristics of commercial explosives.

On October 1, 2009 the Company entered into an agreement to purchase 100% of the outstanding shares of C2R Energy Commodities, Inc., a Nevada corporation, in exchange for 4,050,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock.  The Company wished to enter into this agreement as C2R owned certain intellectual property that the Company wished to acquire.

Development Stage Company Classification
Effective April 30, 2009, the Company has re-entered the development stage.  The Company divested its main revenue producing operations and since that date has not achieved significant revenue from its principle operations.

Accounting Method
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting.  The Company has elected a December 31 year-end.

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 and 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.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2009 and 2008
 
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
As at December 31, 2009 and 2008, the fair value of cash and accounts and advances payable, including amounts due to and from related parties, approximate carrying values because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.  The Company at times may maintain a cash balance in excess of insured limits.

Property, Plant and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Amortization is to be computed using on a straight line basis over the estimated production life of the assets. Major additions and improvements are capitalized in the month following the month in which the assets or improvement are deemed to be placed in service. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Upon disposition, the net book value is eliminated from the accounts, with the resultant gain or loss reflected in operations. Depreciation expense is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimate useful lives of the assets as follows:
 
   Building and leasehold improvements: 10-25 years 
   Machinery and equipment: 10-15 years 
   Furniture and fixtures & transportation equipment: 3-7 years 
 
The Company periodically assesses the recoverability of property, plant and equipment and evaluates such assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the net carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Asset impairment is determined to exist if estimated future cash flows, undiscounted and without interest charges, are less than the net carrying amount.

Stock-based compensation
The Company adopted ASC 718 effective January 1, 2006 using the modified prospective method. Under this transition method, stock compensation expense includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted on or after January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718.

Provision for Taxes
The Company applies ASC 740, which requires the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  This method requires that the current or deferred tax consequences of all events recognized in the financial statements be measured by applying the provisions of enacted tax laws to determine the amount of taxes payable or refundable currently or in future years. Deferred tax assets are reviewed for recoverability and the Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be recovered.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset de-recognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FAS 160 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted FAS 160, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted FAS 160. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-02 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

The Company does not expect the provisions of EITF 09-1 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN ASSUMPTION

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, the Company does not have significant cash or other current assets, nor does it have an established source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern which raises substantial doubt regarding its ability to continue as a going concern.

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES

No provision has been made in the financial statements for income taxes because the Company has accumulated losses from operations since inception.  Any deferred tax benefit arising from the operating loss carried forward is offset entirely by a valuation allowance since it is currently not likely that the Company will be significantly profitable in the near future to take advantage of the losses.  The provision for income taxes consists of the following:

At December 31, 2009, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $2,151,801 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2030.  The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740 at the beginning of fiscal year 2008. As a result of this adoption, the Company has not made any adjustments to deferred tax assets or liabilities. The Company did not identify any material uncertain tax positions on returns that have been filed or that will be filed. The Company has not had operations resulting in net income and is carrying a large Net Operating Loss as disclosed above.  Since it is not thought that this Net Operating Loss will ever produce a tax benefit, even if examined by taxing authorities and disallowed entirely, there would be no effect on the financial statements.
