NOTE 1 – Organization and Nature of Business
 
GlyEco, Inc. (the “Company”) was formed in the State of Nevada on October 21, 2011. On October 21, 2011, the Company became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Environmental Credits, Inc. (“ECVL”).  On November 21, 2011, ECVL merged itself into its wholly-owned subsidiary, GlyEco, Inc. (the “Reincorporation”).  Upon the consummation of the Reincorporation, the Company was the surviving corporation and the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company replaced the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of ECVL.
 
On November 28, 2011, the Company consummated a reverse triangular merger (the “Merger” or “Transaction”) as a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated November 21, 2011 (the “Merger Agreement”), with GRT Acquisition, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Global Recycling Technologies, Ltd., a Delaware corporation and privately-held operating subsidiary (“Global Recycling”). Global Recycling was incorporated in Delaware on July 11, 2007.  
 
GRT Acquisition, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 7, 2011 for the purpose of the consummating the Merger. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, GRT Acquisition, Inc. merged with and into Global Recycling, with Global Recycling being the surviving corporation and which resulted in Global Recycling becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
 
The Company has principal offices in Phoenix, Arizona, and was formed to acquire the assets of companies in the business of recycling and processing waste ethylene glycol, and to apply a newly developed proprietary technology to produce ASTM E1177 Type I virgin grade recycled ethylene glycol to end users throughout North America.
 
On December 30, 2011, Global Recycling’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Global Acquisition Corp. #6 (“Acquisition #6”), a Delaware corporation, was dissolved. Acquisition #6 ceased operations on December 31, 2009, when the assets (including rights to additive formula and goodwill) were sold in an exchange for the common shares of Global Recycling. Prior to its sale, Acquisition #6 operated as a chemical company selling additives used in producing antifreeze and heat transfer fluid from recycled ethylene glycol. Sales of additives were discontinued upon the sale of the assets effective December 31, 2009.

On January 9, 2012, the Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Global Recycling Technologies, Ltd., a Delaware corporation (“Global Recycling”), consummated a merger pursuant to which Global Recycling merged with and into the Company (the “Global Merger”), with the Company being the surviving entity.

The 11,591,958 shares of common stock of Global Recycling (constituting 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Global Recycling on the effective date of the Global Merger) held by the Company pursuant to the reverse merger consummated on November 28, 2011, were cancelled upon the consummation of the Merger.

NOTE 2 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. The interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made.  Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.
 

Consolidation
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GlyEco, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounting transactions have been eliminated.
 
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results may differ significantly from those estimates.

Going Concern

The Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles 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. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern.

As of September 30, 2012, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $8,748,550. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable.

Management’s plans to address these matters include, raising additional financing through offering its shares of capital stock in private and/or public offerings of its securities and through debt financing if available and needed. The Company plans to become profitable by upgrading the capacity and capabilities at its existing operating facility, continuing to implement its patent-pending technology in international markets, and acquiring profitable glycol recycling companies, which are looking to take advantage of the Company’s public company status and improve their profitability through a combined synergy. The Company intends to expand customer and supplier bases once operational capacity and capabilities have been upgraded.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of September 30, 2012, the Company maintained cash balances in an interest bearing account that currently does exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of September 30, 2012.
  
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
In September 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that amends the accounting guidance on goodwill impairment testing. The amendments in this accounting standard update are intended to reduce complexity and costs by allowing an entity the option to make a qualitative evaluation about the likelihood of goodwill impairment to determine whether it should calculate the fair value of a reporting unit. The amendments also improve previous guidance by expanding upon the examples of events and circumstances that an entity should consider between annual impairment tests in determining whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The amendments in this accounting standard update are effective for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting standard update became effective for the reporting period beginning July 1, 2012. The adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, result of operations or cash flows.
 
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by management to, have a material impact on the Company's present or future financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
 

NOTE 3 – Accounts Receivable
 
As of September 30, 2012, the Company’s net accounts receivable was $136,646.
 
NOTE 4 – Equipment
 
As of September 30, 2012, the Company’s equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, was $364,291.
 
NOTE 5 – Major Customers and Suppliers
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, one customer accounted for approximately 71% of the Company’s consolidated net revenues.  With the acquisition of Recycool, the Company no longer relies on one customer for 100% of its consolidated net revenues.
 
NOTE 6 – Convertible Note Payable
 
On April 3, 2012, the Company entered into a Note Conversion Agreement (the "Conversion Agreement") with the note holder. The terms of the Conversion Agreement extend the maturity date for the convertible note held by Leonid Frenkel (the “Frenkel Convertible Note”) to December 31, 2013.  Interest will continue to accrue at a rate of 12.5% compounding semi-annually. Any and all claims of demand arising from or related to a default on the Frenkel Convertible Note prior to the Conversion Agreement were waived by the note holder.  The Conversion Agreement further states that the note holder will convert all money owed into a combination of Common and Preferred Stock on the date that the Company has received an aggregate of $5,000,000 in equity investment following the date of the Conversion Agreement. Four hundred seventy thousand dollars ($470,000) of the debt will be converted into common stock at $1.00 per share or the price offered to any investor subsequent to the Agreement, if lower.  The remainder will be converted into Series AA preferred stock at $1.00 per share or the price offered to any investor subsequent to the Agreement, if lower.  The Series AA preferred stock shall in all features be the same as common stock, with two primary exceptions: (i) the Series AA preferred stock shall accrue a dividend of 12.5% per year, compounded semi-annually; and (ii) the Series AA preferred stock shall have priority in payment upon liquidation over common stock.  As of September 30, 2012 this debt, including principal and interest, totaled $1,565,976.

NOTE 7 – Stockholders’ Equity
 
Preferred Stock

As of September 30, 2012, the Company has no preferred shares outstanding.  The Company's articles of incorporation authorize the Company to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par, preferred shares having preferences to be determined by the board of directors for dividends, and liquidation of the Company's assets.

Common Stock
 
As of September 30, 2012, the Company has 300,000,000, $0.0001 par value shares of common stock authorized.

Fair Value Assumptions

Share-based compensation cost is measured based on the closing fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Share-based compensation cost for stock options is estimated at the grant date and offering date, respectively, based on the fair-value as calculated by the Black-Scholes Merton (“BSM”) option-pricing model. The BSM option-pricing model incorporates various assumptions including expected volatility, expected life and interest rates. The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over the most recent period commensurate with the estimated expected life of the Company’s stock options and other relevant factors including implied volatility in market traded options on the Company’s common stock. The Company bases its expected life assumption on its historical experience and on the terms and conditions of the stock awards it grants to employees and consultants. The Company recognizes share-based compensation cost as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 the Company incurred compensation expense of $22,000.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the information contained in the consolidated financial statements of the Company and the notes which form an integral part of the financial statements which are attached hereto.

Overview
 
GlyEco is a green chemistry company formed to roll-out our proprietary and patent-pending glycol recycling technology that recycles waste glycols, a hazardous material, into the ASTM E1177 Type I standard, a purity level equivalent to refinery-grade glycol (i.e. virgin grade) (“Type I”).   Our technology, branded GlyEco Technology™, can recycle waste glycol from the five major industries that use glycol in their production processes: automotive, textiles, airline, medical and HVAC.    

The Company has assembled a group of accomplished managers each of whom has more than 20 years’ experience in their field of expertise. This team includes business owners and high-ranking senior executives with leadership experience (C-level executives) from the solid waste, chemical engineering and glycol recycling industries.

Company Growth
 
We process approximately 40,000 to 80,000 gallons of glycol per month through a facility in West Virginia. At this facility, we have received waste glycol from a variety of sources—including MEGlobal (a joint venture established in 2004 between Dow Chemical and Petrochemical Industries Company of Kuwait), MEGlobal Canada, DAK Americas, and Performance Fibers. At our facility in Minnesota we process approximately 15,000 to 20,000 gallons of glycol per month. This facility’s main source of waste glycol is various auto repair and supply shops.  

Our immediate business strategy is to continue operations in the West Virginia and Minnesota while constructing or retrofitting a Type I facility capable of implementing our GlyEco Technology™ patent-pending technology.  We are considering several sites for the Type I facility, including the West Virginia facility and a facility located in Elizabeth, New Jersey.  
 
Current Acquisitions
 
We are in the process of acquiring and creating strategic alliances with companies controlling waste glycol.  In the United States, we enter into non-binding letters of intent with companies to acquire their glycol recycling businesses, and we are in discussions with several companies to acquire their glycol recycling businesses.  As of November 2, 2012, we have acquired three processing facilities located in the United States and have entered into preliminary binding agreements to acquire four (4) others.  
 

International Strategy

Internationally, we are in varying stages of development with waste collectors and polyester companies.  We have a non-binding letter of intent with a large European waste collector to recycle all of its waste glycol.  Additionally, we are in discussions with three other waste collection companies in Europe and two large polyester manufacturing companies in China and Mexico to recycle their waste glycol. We have made additional inroads with sources of waste glycol in the Eurozone, Brazil, Argentina, India, Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines.  Final definitive terms have not been established as of yet on any of the aforementioned letters of intent and there can be no assurances that any will be reached or that any transaction will be consummated.

Industry & Company Outlook

Competitors generally recycle waste glycols from only one or two of the five industries and most competitors can, at best, recycle waste glycol to an ASTM E1177 Type II standard (“Type II”), a standard allowing more impurities than Type I — which is unacceptable to many customers and industries.  
 
World-wide consumption for refinery produced ethylene glycol is over 5 billion gallons per year, with growth expected to exceed 350 million gallons every year for the next decade (Source: ICIS Chemical Business). Demand in China exceeds supply and currently tops 2.1 billion gallons each year. The United States consumes over 700 million gallons of ethylene glycol each year. Demand continues to exceed supply for ethylene glycol, largely because of explosive growth in poly fiber manufacturing to make clothing, plastic containers and plastic beverage bottles. This growth trend is expected to continue well into the future.

While the increase in the growth of demand for glycol has slowed in 2012 as compared to 2011 overall, demand still remains high and there are ample sources of waste glycol available.  The average sales price of refinery grade glycol shipped by rail or truck has averaged $4.72/gallon in 2012 (Source: ICIS Chemical Business).  Compared to an average sales price of $5.69/gallon in 2011, this 17% decrease in 2012 has been caused by lower demand during the antifreeze season due to an especially warm winter and a short-term slowdown in the growth of polyester production in Asia.  On the long term, demand for glycol, especially through polyester demand in Asia, remains strong.  Capacity and supply of refinery grade glycol fluctuated in a normal range in 2011 and 2012 with planned and unplanned shutdowns of glycol plants affecting pricing on a month to month basis.  Because the majority of the glycol refinery industry is controlled by five or six major producers, those producers can significantly influence the price of glycol by limiting capacity and supply.  The glycol refinery industry continues to consolidate.  In the long term, companies such as MEGlobal have doubts whether supply will keep up with demand (Source: MEGlobal).  While the competition for waste antifreeze is increasing, the participants within the industry are small, and the four other sources of waste glycol are largely untapped.  This excess volume should influence the cost of waste glycol in a positive manner.
 
Results of Operations
 
Net Sales
 
Three Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2011
 
For the three month period ended September 30, 2012, Net Sales were $303,456, compared to $200,256 for the three month period ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $103,200, or 51.5%.  The increase in Net Sales was due to a price increase for the material processed at our facility in West Virginia as well as the acquisition of Recycool and its net sales. Net Sales was earned from our existing operations with one customer located in West Virginia and from the operations of the Company’s newly acquired wholly-owned subsidiary, Recycool, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“Recycool”). For the three months ended September 30, 2012, Recycool accounted for approximately 29% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, Net Sales were $895,390, compared to $675,581 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $219,810, or 25.5%.  The increase in Net Sales was due to a price increase for the material processed at our facility in West Virginia as well as the acquisition of Recycool and its net sales.  Net Sales was earned from our existing operations with one customer located in West Virginia and from the operations of the Company’s newly acquired wholly-owned subsidiary, Recycool, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“Recycool”). For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, Recycool accounted for approximately 30% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.
 

Cost of Goods Sold

Three Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended September 30, 2011

Costs of Good Sold consist of costs to purchase, transport, store and process the raw materials.  In our operations at Recycool we sometimes receive raw materials (used antifreeze) at no cost to the Company. This can have an impact on our reported consolidated gross profit.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, our Costs of Good Sold was $738,780, compared to $588,701 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, representing an increase of $150,079 or 25.5%.  The increase in Cost of Goods Sold was due to the acquisition of Recycool and its Cost of Goods Sold, the disposal of waste glycol that could not be processed in the third quarter of 2011, as well as an increase in processing costs at the facility in West Virginia. Costs of Good Sold consist of costs to purchase, transport, store and process the raw materials.  In our operations at Recycool we sometimes receive raw materials (used antifreeze) at no cost to the Company. This can have an impact on our reported consolidated gross profit.

For the three month period ended September 30, 2012, Other Income and Expenses increased to $46,053 from $20,667 for the three month period ended September 30, 2011, representing an increase of $25,386, or 122.8%.  Other Income and Expenses consist of a Gain on Fixed Asset, Interest Income and Interest Expense.
 

Gain on Fixed Assets consists of gains on the sale of equipment that had been previously impaired. For the three month period, ended September 30, 2012 the Gain on Fixed Assets decreased to $0 from $16,000 for the three month period ended September 30, 2011, representing a decrease of 100%. In the third quarter of 2011, the Company sold equipment that had been previously impaired and assessed to have no value.
 
Interest Income consists of the interest earned on the Company’s corporate bank account.  Interest Income for the three month period ended September 30, 2012 increased to $136 from $83 for the three month period ended September 30, 2011, representing an increase of $53, or 64.2%.  The increase was primarily due to an increase in our cash balances.
 
Interest Expense consists of accrued and unpaid interest on the Company’s outstanding indebtedness.  As of September 30, 2012, the Company's outstanding indebtedness primarily consisted of accrued and unpaid interest on the convertible secured promissory note in the principal amount of $1,000,000 held by Leonid Frenkel (the “Frenkel Convertible Note”).

For the three month period ended September 30, 2012, Interest Expense increased to $46,189 from $36,750 for the three month period ended September 30, 2011, representing an increase of $9,439 or 25.7%.  The increase is primarily due to the effect of compounding interest.
 
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, Other Income and Expenses increased to $134,553 from $94,283 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, representing an increase of $40,270, or 42.7%.  Other Income and Expenses consist of a Gain on Fixed Assets, Interest Income and Interest Expense.

In the third quarter of 2011, the Company sold equipment that had been previously impaired and assessed to have no value.
 
Interest Income consists of the interest earned on the Company’s corporate bank account.  Interest Income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 increased to $522 from $357 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011, representing an increase of $166, or 46.4%.  The increase was primarily due to an increase in the Company’s cash balances.

Liquidity & Capital Resources; Going Concern
 
As of September 30, 2012, we had $1,107,638 in current assets, consisting of $950,235 in cash, $136,646 in accounts receivable, $4,550 in prepaid expenses, and $16,207 in inventories. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As of September 30, 2012, the Company has yet to achieve profitable operations and is dependent on its ability to raise capital from stockholders or other sources to sustain operations and to ultimately achieve viable operations. These consolidated condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
 
As of and for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, our auditors have expressed substantial doubt that the Company will continue as a going concern.
 
 
Our plans to address these matters include, raising additional financing through offering shares of capital stock in private and/or public offerings of securities and through debt financing if available and needed. There can be no assurances, however, that the Company will be able to obtain any financings or that such financings will be sufficient to sustain its business operation or permit the Company to implement its intended business strategy.  The Company plans to become profitable by upgrading the capacity and capabilities at its existing operating facility, continuing to implement its patent-pending technology in international markets, and acquiring profitable glycol recycling companies, which are looking to take advantage of the Company’s public company status and improve their profitability through a combined synergy. We have non-binding letters of intent with five companies to acquire their glycol recycling businesses, and are in discussions with five other companies to acquire their glycol recycling businesses.
 
On October 24, 2012, we closed our current round of equity financing wherein we raised a net amount of approximately $3.3 million in cash.  This funding will allow us to continue to close the targeted acquisitions and the remaining balance will be used for working capital purposes, however, the Company does not currently have sufficient capital to sustain its operations for the next 12 months. To date, the Company has financed its operations from the Frenkel Convertible Note (as discussed below) and private sales of its securities exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, we raised an aggregate of $690,000 from private sales of its common stock.  For the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, the Company raised an aggregate of $1,615,000 from private sales of our common stock.

With the acquisition of Recycool during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we expanded our customer and supplier bases and will continue to expand as we expect to upgrade our operational capacity and capabilities. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, Recycool accounted for approximately 29% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, Recycool’s net sales represented 30% of the Company’s consolidated net sales.
