SUNOVIA ENERGY TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization, Nature, and Continuance of Operations
Sunovia Energy Technologies, Inc. (“the “Company”) is a Nevada corporation engaged in the business of providing energy-efficient and sustainable energy solutions primarily through the design, manufacture and sale of light emitting diode (LED) lighting solutions for outdoor and area lighting. Through its wholly-owned subsidiary, EvoLucia, Inc., the Company designs, manufactures and sells environmentally responsible, energy-efficient lighting products based on the latest and most efficient LED technologies and its own patented Aimed Optics™ technology, which improves efficiency and energy savings by aiming light where it is needed most, providing for safe and more effective outdoor and area lighting while eliminating wasted light. In the past, the Company also engaged in research and development in solar energy and infrared technologies; however, the Company is no longer engaged in those activities.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All material inter-company accounts, transactions and profits have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, these consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for and as of the periods shown. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles. However, certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for 2012 or for any future period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Continuance of Operations
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. During the period ended June 30, 2012, the Company issued shares of common stock for cash aggregating $2,500,000 (see Note B), obtained a line of credit to finance inventory purchases in the amount of $2,000,000 (see Note F) and restructured certain of its convertible notes and other notes aggregating $1,292,687 (see Note F). The Company believes that this additional funding, line of credit and restructuring of debt will enable it to continue operations through December 31, 2012.
U
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates include the valuation of stock based charges, the receivable allowance and the inventory reserve.
Share-Based Payments
ASC 718, Stock Compensation requires that all stock-based compensation be recognized as an expense in the financial statements and that such cost be measured at the grant date fair value of the award.
We record the grant date fair value of stock-based compensation awards as an expense over the vesting period of the related stock options. In order to determine the fair value of the stock options on the date of grant, we use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Inherent in this model are assumptions related to expected stock-price volatility, option life, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. Although the risk-free interest rates and dividend yield are less subjective assumptions, typically based on factual data derived from public sources, the expected stock-price volatility, forfeiture rate and option life assumptions require a greater level of judgment which make them critical accounting estimates.
We use an expected stock-price volatility assumption that is based on historical volatilities of our common stock and we estimate the forfeiture rate and option life based on historical data related to prior option grants.
Inventory
Inventory consists principally of electronic components used in the assembly of LED lights. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market on a first in first out basis.
U
Loss Per Share
Loss per share is computed using the basic and diluted calculations on the statement of operations. Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss available to common share stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Weighted average number of shares has been adjusted for stock splits and reverse stock splits. Diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents, using the treasury stock method. The total number of share equivalents not included in the calculation at June 30, 2012, based on this methodology was 88,172,412.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts for the period ended June 30, 2011, have been reclassified in the comparative financial statements to be comparable to the presentation for the period ended June 30, 2012. These reclassifications had no effect on net loss as previously reported.
NOTE B - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Common Stock
On January 31, 2012, a restricted stock award on 1,000,000 shares of common stock was granted to an employee of the Company. This restricted stock award vests on a quarterly basis over a one-year period beginning June 30, 2012 as to 250,000 shares per quarter. The Company may, at its option, pay the award in cash in an amount equal to the number of vested shares times the greater of the average closing price of the Company’s common stock over the twenty trading days immediately prior to the vesting date or $.025.
Through June 30, the Company accepted subscriptions to purchase 250,000,000 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $2,500,000. These shares were issued during the period.
In March 2012, the Company issued 3,933,943 shares of its common stock in satisfaction of an outstanding invoices from a professional service provider and 500,000 shares of its common stock for services. These shares were valued at the trading price of the Company’s common stock or $123,625 which was charged to operations. In addition, 100,000 common shares were returned to the Company and cancelled.
Common Stock Redemption
As of January 31, 2008, the Company redeemed 37,523,114 shares of Sun Energy Solar, Inc. common stock at the issuance price of $.10. Subsequent to January 31, 2008, the Company issued 28,948,975 shares of Sunovia Energy Technologies, Inc. common stock to shareholders who chose not to receive cash for their shares. Cash payments totaling $207,385 were made to shareholders of Sun Energy Solar, Inc. There were 6,500,000 shares of Sunovia Energy Technologies, Inc. common stock that may be required to be issued in connection with the redemption which is evidenced by an accrued liability of $650,000 at December 31, 2011. During January 2012 the Florida Statute of Limitations related to this accrual expired and the Company wrote off the $650,000 liability and recorded the balance in Additional Paid in Capital.
NOTE C – COMMITMENTS, CONCENTRATIONS AND CONTINGENCIES
Other Litigation
The Company is defending a lawsuit brought by a supplier of a component part of its LED lighting fixtures. The suit alleges that the Company owes a re-stocking fee in excess of $100,000 for the return of certain parts. The Company believes it has substantial defenses to this suit and intends to vigorously defend it. The lawsuit is in the early stages of pleadings, and the outcome is uncertain. No significant legal fees have been incurred in this case to date.
Tony Frudakis, a former consultant, filed a Complaint against the Company in the Circuit Court of Sarasota County, Florida for breach of contract and has requested the delivery of 837,990 shares of common stock or its cash equivalent. Management believes this action is baseless and the Company intends to vigorously defend against this action.
Concentrations
During the Six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company sold LED lighting products aggregating approximately 44% of revenue to 2 customers and 23% to 2 customers, respectively, which sales individually represented in excess of 10% of the Company’s net revenues. At June 30, 2012, approximately 89% of net accounts receivable is due from 5 customers.
Other
During April 2012 the Company appointed Mel Interiano as Chief Executive Officer and has agreed to a compensatory arrangement with him in that regard. Pursuant to that arrangement, the CEO will earn an annual salary of $300,000, a monthly stipend of $2,000 for certain expenses and will be granted a stock option on 25,000,000 shares of common stock on the same terms as other employee options. In the board’s discretion and subject to meeting certain specified performance objectives, the CEO may earn a performance bonus of up to 100% of his salary. In addition, so long as Mr. Interiano remains employed as CEO and the Company’s top-line revenue increases by at least $10 million every six months, the stock option granted to VM5 Ventures (a consulting firm in which Mr. Interiano is an owner) will continue to vest. The Company and the CEO intend to enter into a written employment agreement that includes these terms in the next thirty days.
NOTE D – STOCK OPTIONS
On May 1, 2008, the Company adopted the 2008 Incentive Stock Plan (“the “Plan”) designed to retain directors, employees, executives and consultants and reward them for making major contributions to the success of the Company. The Plan was approved by the Company’s shareholders in November, 2010. The following is a summary of the Plan and does not purport to be a complete description of all of its provisions.
The Plan is administered by the board of directors. The plan did not have any individual caps other than the limitation of granting incentive stock options to employees and the exercise of more than $100,000 in fair market value of stock per year. The plan permits the grant of restricted stock and non-statutory options to participants where appropriate. The maximum number of shares issuable under the Plan is 125,000,000. The Plan shall terminate ten years from the date it was adopted. The board of directors may, as permitted by law, modify the terms of any grants under the Plan, and also amend, suspend, or extend the Plan itself. In addition, options may be issued outside of the plan by the Company.
During January 2012 the Company granted a stock option on 50,000,000 shares to its CEO pursuant to a consulting agreement. This option has an exercise price of $.02 per share and vests as to 50% of the shares one-year after the date of grant and as to 50% of the shares two-years after the date of grant. This option has a term of 5 years.
During February 2012, the Company granted a stock option on 1,000,000 shares to an employee of the Company. This option has an exercise price of $.02 per share and vests as to 50% of the shares one-year after the date of grant and ratably per quarter for the following three years. This option had a term of 10 years. This option was cancelled during the period ended March 31, 2012.
The options are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions.
Term 5 years, Volatility 153%, Discount rate 1% and dividend yield 0%
The options had a fair value of $915,000 which is being amortized over the vesting period of the options.
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, an aggregate of $336,000 was charged to operations related to options granted during the current year and prior years.
At June 30, there was an aggregate of $1,135,704 of unrecognized charges related to stock options which vest in future periods.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the tables above represents the total pre-tax intrinsic value (difference between the Company’s closing stock price on June 30, 2012, and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all the option holders exercised their options on June 30, 2012. This amount changes based upon the fair market value of the Company’s stock.
NOTE E – CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
On June 10, 2011, the Company completed an offering of 9% Convertible Secured Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 to 10 existing shareholders. The Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 9%. Interest on the Notes is accrued and payable on the earlier of conversion to common stock or the maturity date of the 9% Notes. The Notes are secured by a lien on all of the assets of the Company. The Notes mature on July 1, 2012 and may be prepaid at any time without penalty upon ten days’ notice to the holders of the Notes.
The Notes are convertible on or after September 1, 2011 at a conversion price of $.06. The Registrant may require conversion of the Notes if the market value of the Company’s common stock exceeds 200% of the conversion price over a 20-day trading period, provided that a minimum trading volume of 50,000 shares per day exists during that time period.
During March and April 2012 holders of an aggregate of $900,000 in principal of the 9% convertible notes have restructured their Convertible Notes by extending the maturity date to July 1, 2013. In connection with that extension, each of these holders converted 50% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to common stock at $.02 per share which was the trading price of the shares on the conversion date, and the Company modified the terms of the remaining debt to allow conversion at $.02 per share and to increase the interest rate to 10% per annum. The aggregate principal amount outstanding under the new notes is $550,000. The Company will issue an aggregate of 22,500,000 shares of common stock to the holders of the Convertible Notes in the conversion of principal to common stock. In connection with the modification and conversion the Company recorded a debt conversion expense of $300,000.
NOTE F – NOTES PAYABLE
Notes Payable
From December 2009 through July 2010 the Company borrowed an aggregate of $706,326 from certain shareholders. In addition, from August 2010 through December 2010 the Company borrowed $122,642 from a shareholder. The borrowings are evidenced by notes which bear interest at 10% per annum and are due between 12 months and 24 months from the date of issuance.
During 2010 and 2011 $156,281 of the debt was repaid and as of December 31, 2011, the aggregate balance outstanding on these notes was $672,687.
During the period ended June 30, 2012, $108,719 was repaid bringing the balance outstanding to $563,968. During March 2012 the holders of the outstanding notes agreed to extend the due date on these notes to July 1, 2013.
Line of Credit
A private investor, shareholder and director of the Company has made available to the Company a working capital line of credit of $2.0 million, which may be increased at the investor’s discretion. The working capital line may be drawn to purchase components for orders of the Company’s products approved by the lender. The working capital line bears interest at an annual rate of 12.5% and draws must be repaid within three business days of receipt of payment from the customer. At June 30, 2012, no amount is due on the line. The lender has deposited the $2,000,000 in a bank account and the Company has recorded the entire line of credit as a liability. This bank account is classified in the balance sheet as restricted cash.
NOTE G – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 12, 2012, the Company entered into a manufacturing, development and investment agreement with Leader Electronics, Inc. (“LEI”).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We encourage you to review our periodic reports filed with the SEC and included in the SEC’s Edgar database, including the annual report on Form 10-K filed for the year ended December 31, 2011. The Company is focusing solely on building its LED lighting business at this time, while attempting to preserve the value of both its patented solar substrate technology and its shared solar technology for possible commercialization in the future.
Sunovia Energy Technologies is a LED lighting company that markets its LED lighting products under the Evolucia brand.. The Company’s sole focus is on the design, engineering, development, patent protection, manufacturing, marketing, sales and support of LED (light emitting diode) lighting fixtures, controls and components. LEDs are semiconductor devices that emit light when electric currents are passed through them and have many advantages over traditional light sources including longer lifetime, lower energy consumption, smaller size and greater design flexibility. Sunovia’s Evolucia-branded LED light sources are designed to enhance lighting performance, reduce energy consumption, eliminate the use of hazardous materials and lower maintenance costs. We have developed an award winning product line that we believe outperforms competitor’s lighting products. The results of our operations have improved steadily over the past 12 months, and we intend to continue to focus on the LED lighting markets exclusively for the foreseeable future.
LED Lighting
Over the past three years, we have proven that our proprietary Evolucia Aimed Optics™ LED lighting system is the most efficient method to deliver light to a target area. By mounting LEDs at numerous complementary angles within a single LED fixture, we believe we have achieved performance metrics that are superior to competing products in crucial aspects of LED lighting: energy conservation and photometry (light delivered to a target area). Our proprietary lighting system has received an award for the Best Outdoor Street Light, in its class, from the United States Department of Energy (DOE), one of the most highly regarded recognitions within the lighting industry.
In addition to superior efficiency, we believe our products are beating the competition in the performance metric of Fitted Target Efficacy (FTE) which is a standard the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has proposed for ENERGY STAR™ to evaluate how effectively a luminaire delivers light to the target area that it was designed to illuminate. We believe our patent pending Evolucia Aimed Optics™ technology consistently outperforms our competitors, which is supported by our receipt of the 2010 Next Generation Luminaries™ Solid State Lighting Design Award for our outdoor street and area cobra-head product, selected by judging representatives from the lighting industry, International Association of Lighting Designers, the Illuminating Engineering Society and the Department of Energy from more than 350 applicants. This award serves as a recommendation to the lighting specifier community.. In addition, our cobra head and shoebox fixtures have been certified by the Design Lights Consortium (DLC). We expect that the certification from the DLC will open up additional opportunities for us, as customers and suppliers receive incentives from state and utility energy programs for purchasing products that are certified by the DLC.
Evolucia’s Aimed Optics™ LED technology consistently outperforms LED “light bar” technology on FTE tests, as shown in the chart below:

*DOE evaluated hundreds of High Intensity Discharge (HID) fixtures to establish ENERGY STAR™ minimum FTE requirements. Minimum FTEs for LED luminaries were established to achieve at least 20% energy savings compared to top performing HID products.
Our LED lighting products, which are sold under the brand name Evolucia™, have been installed at more than one thousand locations throughout the world, including numerous military bases, universities and domestic and foreign government roadways and buildings.
Recently, we experienced various issues that required, and received, our immediate attention. For example: (1) lamp failures due to voltage spikes at the installation site - solved by adding a front side step-down transformer component; (2) cracked lenses – solved with adjustment to hardware installation process; (3) lamp failure due to excessive heat – solved through thermal analysis and adjustment to heat sink.
While we have not been immune to the inevitable problems that accompany the introduction of a new technology paradigm, we did have the foresight to enter the market at a pace that allowed us to properly address problems without alienating customers and without accumulating an inordinate backlog of product returns/failures. We believe that this strategy was the correct approach as it allowed our technical team the time and data required to implement further quality control policies and procedures, and to make important modifications to the product lines. We also believe that our experiences and corrective actions over the past five years have provided us with key insights and advantages that will help us to establish Evolucia™ as a reliable, high-performance brand within the LED lighting industry.
Over the past five years, every major lighting company has launched their own brand of LED fixtures, and virtually all of these companies have experienced various technical problems. Many companies have not corrected the problems, and run the risk of having to replace large quantities of fixtures due to non-performance. Most notably, the lack of a secondary optic on fixtures that utilize light bar technologies. The inevitable build-up of dirt and dust on the primary optic causes significant light reductions and distorts the light distribution such that minimum light levels are not met on busy roadways. Many companies who utilize the light bar technology do not employ a secondary optic due to the fact that the secondary optic reduces the amount of light to the target area. This light reduction would prohibit these fixtures from meeting minimum roadway requirements as set forth by state and federal regulatory agencies. Due to the innate efficiency of or Evolucia Aimed Optics™ technologies, every Evolucia roadway light fixture employs a secondary optic and still exceeds roadway light requirements.
During the third quarter of 2012, we expect to introduce the next generations of our Evolucia™ Aimed Optics™ LED lighting fixtures. These fixtures will include upgrades to the thermal system, relocation of the driver assembly and a new streamlined design that both facilitate and reduce costs related to manufacturing and assembly. These next generation fixtures cost significantly less than earlier versions and operate efficiently in virtually any climate.
We currently have in excess of $20 million in contracts for our new cobra-head fixtures, and we expect to begin fulfilling these contracts during the third quarter of 2012. We have finalized a partnership agreement with global manufacturer, Leader Electronics Inc., for the manufacture of the Evolucia™ Aimed Optics™ series fixtures. Leader Electronics invested $1 million into Sunovia at a price of $0.08 per share. We anticipate manufacturing to commence through Leader Electronics during the third quarter of 2012. Our manufacturing partnership with Leader Electronics is not exclusive, and we will continue to engage and utilize multiple contract manufacturing partners to fulfill purchase orders based upon customer location and order specifications.
During the third quarter of 2012, we will be launching a re-branding initiative. We will transition our company brand away from Sunovia Energy Technologies to Evolucia Lighting. The Evolucia brand coupled with our proprietary Aimed Optics platform has gained equity in both the US and international lighting markets. By strengthening our brand position, we hope to increase recognition among customers and key influencers within the various market channels that we serve. We are making a substantial investment in website, marketing and sales materials, public relations, advertising and trade show participation.
During the first half of this year, we secured key personnel that brought more than 100 years of lighting industry experience to our company. Most notably, we added Chief Executive Officer, Mel Interiano, and board of director, Frank Santiago; both seasoned professionals in the lighting industry from OSRAM SYLVANIA.
Mr. Interiano spent 15 years at OSRAM SYLVANIA Inc., most recently as Business Development Manager of Innovation and International Sales Manager. During his tenure at OSRAM SYLVANIA, Mr. Interiano was presented with the Sales Innovation Award in recognition of his contribution to LED lighting sales. In addition, Interiano has extensive experience in lean manufacturing methods that are critical to the development of world-class LED lighting manufacturing processes. Mr. Interiano, who is fluent in Spanish, earned his Chemical Engineering degree from the University of Rhode Island and is completing an MBA in Finance from Northeastern University. He has also completed executive management programs at Cornell University and is trained in statistical process control and Six Sigma management.
Mr. Santiago served as Executive Vice President and General Manager of OSRAM SYLVANIA’s General Lighting division where he directed sales, operations, finance, product development quality, and human resource functions across the NAFTA region, including several manufacturing locations and distributions centers. Prior to that, Mr. Santiago was the global head for OSRAM’s Precision Materials business.
We also hired Mr. Jon Di Gesu as Director of Marketing Communications. Mr. Di Gesu spent 17 years with OSRAM SYLVANIA, in Danvers, MA, first as Director of Marketing Communications, General Lighting Division, responsible for the division’s advertising, public relations, marketing communications, promotions, packaging and training and education initiatives for the division’s industrial and consumer markets. Mr. Di Gesu helped re-brand the company and its products following the acquisition of GTE Sylvania by Munich, Germany-based lighting leader, OSRAM. He ended his career at OSRAM SYLVANIA in 2008, as Director of Brand Strategy, responsible for the branding and positioning of the SYLVANIA brand in North America across all divisions.
Results of Operations for the Quarter ended June 30, 2012
For the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company had a net loss from ($1,321,053), as compared to a net loss ($1,004,916) for the three months ended June 30, 2011, or an increase of $316,137. The significant factors contributing to this increase are discussed in more detail below.
Revenues
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012 were $692,270, as compared to $503,689 for the three-month period ending June 30, 2011, which represented an increase of $188,581 or approximately 37%. All of the Company’s sales originated from its LED lighting division, and all of the increase in revenue was a result of increased sales efforts.
Gross Profit
The Company had a gross profit of ($34,018), and a gross profit margin of (4.9%) for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to a gross profit of $79,872 or a gross profit margin of 15.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease in gross profit is attributable primarily to a necessary price reduction of our first generation LED light fixtures in response to an evolving and more competitive marketplace.
Expenses
Overall expenses increased to $1,287,035 for the three-month period ending June 30, 2012 from $1,084,788 for the three-month ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $202,247.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $1,178,325 for the three-month period ending June 30, 2012 from $1,082,903 for the three-month ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $95,422, or 8.8%. The major components are discussed below.
Product Development
Product development costs were $163,010 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $183,283 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $20,273 or approximately 11.06%. In May, 2012, the Company’s new management team allocated $150,000 to complete the development of the next generation Evolucia™ Aimed Optics™ product line. These next generation fixtures will include upgrades to the thermal system, relocation of the driver assembly and a new streamlined design that both facilitates and reduces costs related to manufacturing and assembly. These fixtures are expected to cost significantly less than earlier versions and operate efficiently in virtually any climate.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses are the expenses of operating the business on a daily basis that are not related directly to cost of goods and include salaries, legal fees, and rent and utilities. For the three months ended June 30, 2012 the Company incurred aggregate expense of $1,015,315 in this area, compared to $899,620 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of $115,695 or 12.9%. The majority of the increase is a result of the necessary hiring of new employees for the LED lighting business, as well as other general expenses.
Other Income and Expenses
Other income and expense reflects interest costs (net of interest income) as discussed below:
Total of interest for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $80,163 compared to $1,885 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in interest expense from the prior period is attributable primarily to debentures and the conversion and repayment of these debentures. We incurred a debt conversion expense in the amount of $67,000 related to the conversion of debentures to equity during the quarter ended June 30 2012
Results of Operations for the Six Months ended June 30, 2012
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company had a net loss of ($2,065,649), as compared to a net loss of ($2,403,892) for the six months ended June 30, 2011 or a decrease of $338,243. The significant factors contributing to this decrease are discussed in more detail below.
Revenues
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were $1,303,498, as compared to $1,256,522 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, which represented an increase of $46,976 or approximately 3.7%. All of the Company’s sales originated from its LED lighting division, and all of the increase in revenue was a result of increased sales efforts.
Gross Profit
The Company had a gross profit of $187,819 and a gross profit margin of 14.4% for the six months ended June 30 2012, as compared to a gross profit of $225,639 or a gross profit margin of 18.0% for the six months ended June 30
2011. The decrease in gross profit is attributable primarily to a necessary price reduction of our first generation LED light fixtures in response to an evolving and more competitive marketplace.
Expenses
Overall expenses decreased to $2,253,468 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $2,629,531 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $376,063 or 14.3%. The major categories of expense for the Company are discussed individually below.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased to $1,892,270 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $2,598,588 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $706,318 or 27.2%. The major components are discussed below.
Product Development
Product development costs were $196,695 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $279,870 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $83,175 or approximately 29.71%.
In May, 2012, the Company’s new management team allocated $150,000 to complete the development of the next generation Evolucia™ Aimed Optics™ product line. These next generation fixtures will include upgrades to the thermal system, relocation of the driver assembly and a new streamlined design that both facilitates and reduces costs related to manufacturing and assembly. These fixtures are expected to cost significantly less than earlier versions and operate efficiently in virtually any climate.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses are the expenses of operating the business on a daily basis that are not related directly to cost of goods and include salaries, legal fees, and rent and utilities. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 the Company incurred aggregate expense of $1,645,575 in this area, compared to $2,318,718 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, a decrease of $623,143 or 26.9%. The majority of the decrease is a reduction in compensation and legal fees as well as other general expenses.
Other income and expense reflects interest costs (net of interest income) as discussed below:
Total of interest for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $332,651 compared to $30,943 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in interest expense from the prior period is attributed primarily to debentures and the conversion and repayment of these debentures. We incurred a debt conversion expense in the amount of $300,000 related to the conversion of debentures to equity during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
Cash Flows and Working Capital
To date, we have financed our operations primarily through the sale of equity and debt. As of June 30, 2012, we had $3,311,808 in cash and cash equivalents. We had receivables, net of allowances, of $325,237 and inventory of $688,011. Our current liabilities as of that date were $2,863,470.
Our sales cycle can be several months or longer, with some costs incurred up front, making our business working capital intensive. Also, because we build our products based upon a specific order, it can take up to 90 days to fulfill an order, followed by a period of time in which to collect our receivables. We do not have a credit line, and commercial credit is unavailable for the Company at this time.
The Company outsources its manufacturing; consequently, we do not have significant capital equipment expenditures, although tooling costs can reduce our product cost when justified by the level of sales.

Our net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $4,391,281, which consisted of $2,500,000 raised through the sale of equity and proceeds from a line of credit of $2,000,000 less the repayment of debentures of $108,719.
During the period ended June 30, 2012, the Company issued 250,000,000 shares of common stock for cash aggregating $2,500,000. In addition, a private investor and shareholder of the Company has made available to the Company a working capital line of credit of $2.0 million, which may be increased in the investor’s discretion. The working capital line may be drawn to purchase components for orders of the Company’s products approved by the lender. The working capital line bears interest at an annual rate of 12.5% and draws must be repaid within three business days of receipt of payment from the customer.
During June 2012 holders of an aggregate of $900,000 in principal of the 9% convertible notes have restructured their Convertible Notes by extending the maturity date to July 1, 2013. In connection with that extension, each of the holders who extended their Convertible Notes converted 50% of the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to common stock at $.02 per share which was the trading price of the shares on the conversion date, and the Company modified the terms of the remaining debt to allow conversion at $.02 per share and to increase the interest rate to 10% per annum. The aggregate principal amount outstanding under the new notes is $550,000. The Company will issue an aggregate of 22,500,000 shares of common stock to the holders of the Convertible Notes in the conversion of principal to common stock. In connection with the modification and conversion the Company recorded a debt conversion expense of $300,000.
In addition, during March 2012, holders of $663,968 in notes extended the due date on these notes to July 1, 2013.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Plan of Operation
The Company is continuing to focus its operations on generating sales of LED products through regional sales managers and our network of manufacturers’ representatives, as well as reducing the cost of producing its LED products in order to make them more price-competitive in the market. In addition, the Company is completing the development of its next generation lighting products and has implemented targeted marketing of its product lines to the global marketplace. We are leveraging several key relationships with energy service companies and original equipment manufacturers to increase sales and to take advantage of price concessions associated with larger orders.
The Company leases office space/warehouse facilities in Sarasota, Florida under an operating lease. The lease term is for a period of 66 months which began in April of 2010. Monthly payments under the lease are currently $10,445.
As of June 30, 2012, we had 13 full-time employees and one active independent contractor. One employee currently either defers a portion of their compensation or takes stock rather than cash, either as an accommodation to preserve cash in the Company or as a term of their employment arrangement. These arrangements are expected to continue.
Effect of Changes in Prices
Prices of equivalent incandescent lighting are lower than the price of the Company’s, and its competitors’, LED lighting products. Subsidies and cost-savings achieved over the life of our LED products have supported sales; however, in order to remain competitive, it will be necessary for us to reduce the cost of our products. We have reduced the cost of our products and the sales prices of those products in a meaningful way over the current fiscal year and are continuing to focus efforts in this area.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Critical accounting estimates are those that management deems to be most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations, and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, due to the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. We have identified our critical accounting estimates which are discussed below.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. Management provides for probable uncollectible amounts through a charge to bad debt expense and a credit to an allowance for uncollectible accounts based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. Accounts receivable balances that remain outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the allowance for uncollectible accounts and a credit to accounts receivable.
Accounting for Derivative Instruments
Derivatives are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. These derivatives, including embedded derivatives in the Company’s structured borrowings, are separately valued and accounted for on the Company’s balance sheet. Fair values for exchange traded securities and derivatives are based on quoted market prices. Where market prices are not readily available, fair values are determined using market based pricing models incorporating readily observable market data and requiring judgment and estimates.
Research and Development
Research and Development ("R&D") expenses are charged to expense when incurred. The Company has consulting arrangements which are typically based upon a fee paid monthly or quarterly. Samples are purchased that are used in testing, and are expensed when purchased. R&D costs also include salaries and related personnel expenses, direct materials, laboratory supplies, equipment expenses and administrative expenses that are allocated to R&D based upon personnel costs.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when the following conditions have been met: there is persuasive evidence an arrangement exists which includes a fixed price; there is reasonable assurance of collection; the services or products have been provided and delivered to the customer; no additional performance is required and title and risk of loss has passed to the customer. Products may be placed on consignment to a limited number of resellers. Revenue for these consignment transactions will also be recognized as noted above.
Share-Based Payments
Compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions are recognized in the financial statements. The cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity award).
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not believe that any recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.
As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Management Report on Disclosure Controls
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this by this Report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to lack of segregation of duties in our accounting department and the need for an updated accounting system and the need for more effective procedures to timely close our books and records and prepare our financial statements. The Company is currently addressing these issues.
Remediation of Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company has not established adequate financial reporting monitoring activities to mitigate the risk of management override, specifically because there are few employees and only two officers with management functions there is lack of segregation of duties. The Company intends to continue to evaluate potentially engaging additional management personnel to alleviate this weakness. Further, during the period ended June 30, 2012, we implemented new cost and inventory software. This is part of our ongoing process to replace software to support our evolving needs. We believe this software strengthens our internal control environment through improved automation, integration with manufacturing flows, and scalability.
