ARCIS RESOURCES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2010
Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Organization of Business
Arcis Resources Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on March 27, 2008 under the name “Mountain Renewables, Inc.” Effective on November 15, 2010, the Company filed with the Nevada Secretary of State a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation. The amendment changed the name of the corporation to “Arcis Resources Corporation.”
On September 22, 2010, the Company acquired all of the membership interest in Gulf Coast Energy Distribution, LLC, an Alabama limited liability company (“GCED”), and all of the outstanding common stock of ARCIS Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“ARCIS”), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement entered into by these parties on July 21, 2010. The acquisition is referred to herein as the “Share Exchange.” GCED and ARCIS will be engaged in the business of acquiring, trading and distributing fuel oil and other petroleum products.
In exchange for 100% of the membership interest in ARCIS the Company issued to GSA International Group, Ltd., a British Virgin Islands corporation (“GSAI”), 11,000,000 shares of its common stock. The Company issued 2,200,000 shares of common stock to Kenneth Allen Flatt, Jr. and Activa Transportation Services, LLC, an Alabama limited liability company (“Activa”), for their 100% membership interest in GCED.
The Company has authorized capital stock of 200,000,000 capital shares, consisting of 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value. Before the Share Exchange, there were 13,615,000 shares outstanding, of which Bristlecone Associates, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“Bristlecone”), held 6,000,000 (44.0%) and Richard Giannotti owned 4,030,000 shares (29.6%). As a condition to the Share Exchange, Bristlecone surrendered 4,500,000 shares and Mr. Giannotti surrendered 3,500,000 shares, reducing the outstanding shares to 5,615,000. Immediately after the Share Exchange, there were 18,815,000 shares outstanding, of which Bristlecone held 1,500,000 shares (8.0%) and Mr. Giannotti held 530,000 shares (2.8%).
The acquisition was accounted for as a reverse merger under the purchase method of accounting since there was a change of control. Accordingly, GCED will be treated as the continuing entity for accounting purposes.
Development Stage Company
The Company has not earned significant revenues from planned operations. Accordingly, the Company’s activities have been accounted for as those of a “Development Stage Company.”
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Arcis Energy, Inc. and Gulf Coast Energy Distribution, LLC. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation
Basis of Presentation
The accompany unaudited interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of Arcis Resources Corporation and related notes thereto contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC on April 15, 2011. Certain information and note disclosure normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

ARCIS RESOURCES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2010
Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
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 reporting 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 periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however, actual results could differ materially from these estimates.
Net Loss Per Share
ASC 260, “Earnings per Share,” requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes dilution; diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities and other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. The Company had no potential common stock equivalents which would result in a diluted loss per share. Therefore, diluted loss per share is equivalent to basic loss per share.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in deposits and all highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three months or less.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104. Sales and service revenue is recognized at the date of shipment, or completion of services rendered, to a customer when a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery or service is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as customer deposits.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 AND 2010
Note 1 - Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company incurred a loss from operations of $114,480 during the three months ended June 30, 2011, and a loss from operations of 187,553 for the six months ended June 30,2011 and a loss from operations of $381,690 since the date of inception, June 7, 2006. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Management plans to raise additional proceeds from debt and equity transactions and to continue to increase its sales and marketing activities. There is no guarantee, however, that management will be able to secure sufficient financing to sustain the operations of the Company or that operations will become self-sustaining. In the absence of one of those accomplishments, the Company would likely be forced to liquidate. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
Fair Value Measurements.
The FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification defines fair value as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants and requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in the following three categories:
Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active or inactive markets and valuations derived from models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets.
Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable in any market.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
The carrying values of cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values due to their short term maturities. The carrying values of the Company’s notes payable approximate their fair values based upon a comparison of the interest rate and terms of such debt given the level of risk to the rates and terms of similar debt currently available to the Company in the marketplace.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements.
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 - Stockholders' Equity
The Company is authorized to issue 200,000,000 shares of $.001 par value common stock. Dividends may be paid on outstanding shares as declared by the Board of Directors. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote.
During the three month period and six month period ended June 30, 2011, the Company did not issue any common stock shares.
During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company received $108,700 for its common stock. The stock has not yet been issued, and, accordingly, is a liability on the balance sheet as "Capital Stock to be Issued".
Note 3 - Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method as stipulated by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of the events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Deferred income taxes are recognized for all significant temporary difference between tax and financial statements bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established against net deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
As a result of the Company incurring net losses, an income tax benefit in the form of net operating loss carry-forwards have been generated for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the prior years ended December 31, 2010.
The potential future benefit from income taxes arising from operations for the six month period ending June 30, 2011 and 2010 consist of the following:

Permanent differences consist primarily of disallowed travel, meal and entertainment expenses.
The Company’s net deferred tax assets consist primarily of net operating loss carry-forwards. At June 30, 2011, the Company had federal net operating loss carry-forwards totaling approximately $380,000 which may be used to offset future taxable income. These net operating loss carry-forwards expire over various years through 2025. The net operating loss carryforwards may be limited under the Change of Control provisions of the Internal Revenue Code section 382. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has determined that due to the uncertainty regarding its future profitability, a full valuation allowance is required for deferred tax assets. Net deferred tax assets and liabilities are comprised of the following as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

Note 5 – Subsequent Events
Acquisition of American Plant Services, LLC and Mobile Fluid Recovery, Inc.
On July 15, 2011 the Company acquired all of the membership interest in American Plant Services, LLC (“APS”) and Mobile Fluid Recovery, Inc. (“MFR”). In exchange for those equity interests, the Registrant issued a total of 8,800,000 shares of its common stock to (a) the members of APS, who were Kenneth A. Flatt, Jr., Deborah K. Flatt, Trevis Lyon and James E. Goins, and (b) the shareholders of MFR other than APS, who were Clifford Briggs and David Briggs. Kenneth A. Flatt, Jr., Deborah K. Flatt and Trevis Lyon were the members of the Registrant’s Board of Directors at the time of the acquisition. The Company also issued Notes due July 15, 2012 in the aggregate amount of $500,000 to Messrs. Flatt, Lyon and Goins. The Notes bear interest at 11.25% per annum and are payable in advance of maturity out of the proceeds of any financing of four million dollars or more, or out of any net cash provided by operations.
At the same time, the Company issued an additional one million shares of common stock to Kenneth A. Flatt. Jr. and Deborah K. Flatt to compensate them for their personal guarantees of approximately $6.0 million in debt owed by APS. To the extent that the guarantees are not released within 180 days after the closing date, the Company shall be obliged to issue up to one million additional shares of common stock to the Flatts, the number of shares being determined by the amount of unreleased guarantees on the 90th and 180th days after the closing date.
The Agreement imposed on the Company a further obligations, namely to provide sufficient additional compensation to Mr. Flatt to offset any expense that he may incur by reason of a promissory note in the amount of $4.0 million that he delivered to APS (the note bearing interest at 3.5% per annum, with two percent of principal payable every three years and the balance due in fifteen years).

Outline of Business
As of June 30, 2011, Arcis Resources Corporation had two subsidiaries: Arcis Energy Inc. (“Arcis”) and Gulf Coast Energy Distribution, LLC (“GCED”). Arcis was organized to engage in international fuel trade. GCED was organized to engage in domestic fuel trade, including transfer of oil and refined petroleum products. In 2010 certain affiliates assigned to Arcis certain core contracts that will enable it to initiate the business of fuel trading. Primary among the assigned contracts were:
|
·
|
Contract dated July 7, 2010 with Bashkir Fuel Company providing for the sale by Bashkir Fuel to Arcis of 15,000 metric tons of Kazakhstan fuel oil (grade GOST 10585-99) per month.
|
|
·
|
Contract dated July 7, 2010 with Bashkir Fuel Company providing for the sale by Bashkir Fuel to Arcis of 15,000 metric tons of Kazakhstan fuel oil (grade GOST 305-1982) per month.
|
|
·
|
Joint Venture Agreement dated April 27, 2010 with Premier Investment Group, Inc. (“PREMI”) providing that PREMI will make a deposit of one billion Euros to collateralize letters of credit to finance trading of oil and other physical commodities by ARCIS.
|
Both Arcis and GCED will be engaged in the acquisition, sale and trading of the full spectrum of petroleum products, from crude oil refinery feed stocks to refined products, including base oils, biofuels, bunker fuels, fuel oils, gasoil, kerosene/jet fuel, marine gasoil, and diesel motor gas and naphtha, with an emphasis in the mid-distillates markets. They will be primarily active in physical oil trading including transportation by vessel, pipeline, railcar, and truck. Arcis will operate internationally, and GCED will trade only within North America.
Because all of the activities of Arcis will be carried out in the international market, it will not require any special licensing nor be subject to any special reporting requirements relating to its business. GCED, on the other hand, is located in Birmingham, Alabama, and will be engaged in the interstate distribution of fuel products. For that reason, GCED is required to obtain a 637
10
License from the Internal Revenue Service and to file monthly reports of the shipments of fuel that it arranges. GCED is also required to obtain a Motor Fuel License from the State of Alabama, to post a bond with the State of Alabama, and to file monthly reports of fuel shipments. GCED has obtained the required licenses and is current in its filing requirements.
Both companies will be active in both the primary and the reuse markets. The reuse market involves the reclamation of used oil, such as motor oil, through re-refining and sale for reuse for other purposes, such as serving as a base stock for lubricating oil.
In July 2011 Arcis Resources Corporation acquired ownership of American Plant Services, LLC and Mobile Fluid Recovery, Inc. American Plant Services, LLC was engaged in the business of providing industrial services, but is currently in liquidation. Mobile Fluid Recovery, Inc. utilizes patented recyclable absorbent systems to provided fluid recycling services, including separation of oil and water and reuse of the oil.
Results of Operations
Arcis was organized in July 2010 and had not commenced significant operations as of June 30, 2011. Since early in 2009, GCED has been engaged in developing its trading desk, which primarily consisted of securing the government licenses necessary to engage in interstate distribution of fuel products. Under its business plan, GCED will begin generating revenues as crude and refined petroleum products are purchased under its contracts with suppliers and resold. Since inception through June 30, 2011 the combined revenues for ARCIS and GCED were less than $11,000.
During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded $10,162 in revenue from one minor domestic fuel trade, on which the Company lost $657. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded no revenue. The Company incurred selling, general and administrative expenses of $185,388 during the six months and $113,739 during the three months ended June 30, 2011. The expenses were primarily accrued salaries for management as well as professional fees incurred in connection with the Company’s efforts to obtain financing and its ongoing SEC reporting obligations. As a result, the Company incurred a net loss of $114,480 during the three months ended June 30, 2011 and a net loss of $187,553 during the six months ended June 30, 2011. By way of comparison, the Company’s operating expenses and net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2010 totaled $5,038. Having recorded $790 in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2010, operating expenses for that period were $19,068 and the net loss was $18,278.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
GCED’s and ARCIS’s operations have been funded to date by loans, capital contributions from its members, and the private sale of securities which combined have totaled approximately $155,000 from inception through June 30, 2011.
At June 30, 2011 we had a working capital deficit of $329,747, although we have agreements to settle $108,700 of our current liabilities by issuing common stock at a future date. At June 30, 2011 the Company also had no valuable assets to secure a lending arrangement. Our ability to implement our business plan depends on our success in obtaining capital. For that reasons, the opinion of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 expressed that there is substantial doubt as to whether the Company will continue as going concern.
11
In order to commence domestic fuel trading operations, GCED will require at least $500,000 to finance the purchase of fuel. We are currently exploring sources for those funds, but have not yet secured a commitment for the necessary financing. Upon receipt of that initial funding, we will be able to engage in trading. Our trading operations, however, will require the full time attention of a number of traders and administrators. The gross profit generated by our initial trading activities is unlikely to be sufficient to cover the direct and indirect costs of these personnel as well as the additional personnel who will be engaged in securing additional financing and developing the relationships necessary in order to expand GCED’s trading operations.
In order to enter into the fuel trading business at a level that can result in net profits for the company, GCED will need at least $10 million in available funds. Our plan is to secure that funding through the sale of debt and/or equity securities, and through joint ventures with investors wishing to participate in the fuel trading business in this fashion. If we are able to secure funding at that level, we will then be able to leverage our equity by using short-term secured debt financing to purchase fuel products for resale. We are currently exploring a number of possible sources for this second level of financing, but have not secured any firm commitment. If we are unable to secure the financing necessary for GCED to become independently viable as a fuel trader, we will limit its operations to providing support for the fuel spill remediation services of its affiliate, Mobile Fluid Recovery, Inc. - namely, resale of spilled fuel recaptured through the cleanup processes provided by MFR. We believe those services could be provided with only one dedicated GCED employee, and so could yield a modest profit to the overall Company.
Because Arcis Energy has an available source of credit in its joint venture with PREMI, we need only a modest amount of capital - several hundred thousand dollars - to provide the working capital that will permit us to initiate Arcis Energy’s operations. We are currently exploring opportunities to secure those funds. Over the long term, however, our profitability will depend on our ability to replace the PREMI joint venture with more affordable financing. Under the PREMI arrangement, our costs of financing will include interest at market rate, administrative costs of the letter of credit processing, plus 25% of the gross profits from each transaction - we cannot estimate the total financing cost, since we have no historical record on which to base an expectation of transaction profits, but we anticipate the cost of financing under this arrangement may be twice that paid by our larger competitors.
Our acquisition of American Plant Services, LLC and Mobile Fluid Recovery, Inc. in July 2011 has substantially expanded our anticipated capital obligations. As a result of that transaction, we will require funds for the following purposes:
|
·
|
Proper marketing of the technological capabilities of Mobile Fluid Recovery will entail a commitment of several million dollars to working capital.
|
|
·
|
We have determined that it is in the best interest of the organization to cease the operating activities of American Plant Services, LLC. That entity is now in liquidation, and we have assumed responsibility for settling its liabilities in an orderly fashion.
|
|
·
|
The employment agreements of the four members of our management became effective upon completion of the acquisition. The Company is currently accruing salaries to the four officers at an aggregate rate of $708,000 per annum. If the Company completes a $10 million equity offering or achieves annual net income of $2.5 million, the salary obligation to the four executives will increase to $1,328,000.
|
12
Our efforts to obtain the funding needed for all of these purposes and commitments is ongoing. To date we have obtained no firm commitment for significant funds from any source. If we are unable to obtain the necessary funds, our business operations will not be successful.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2011. Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, “disclosure controls and procedures” means controls and other procedures that are designed to insure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files with the Securities and Exchange Commission is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time limits specified in the Commission’s rules. “Disclosure controls and procedures” include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to insure that information the Company is required to disclose in the reports it files with the Commission is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In carrying out that evaluation, management identified a material weakness (as defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Standard No. 2) in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weakness identified by management consisted of inadequate staffing and supervision within the bookkeeping and accounting operations of our company. The relatively small number of employees who have bookkeeping and accounting functions prevents us from segregating duties within our internal control system. The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews. Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s system of disclosure controls and procedures was not effective as of June 30, 2011 for the purposes described in this paragraph.
Changes in Internal Controls. The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act or 1934) that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report, and they have concluded that there was no change to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
