NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF MARCH 31, 2014
(UNAUDITED)
 
NOTE 1
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION
 
(A) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in The United States of America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations.

It is management's opinion, however that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation.  The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

Next Fuel, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on August 14, 2007.  Next Fuel, Inc. is a service-based firm that has developed and will continue to develop and commercialize innovative technologies, such as water treatment technologies as well as our unconventional natural gas production from lower grade coal, lignite, oil shale and other carbonaceous deposits inside the U.S.
 
We are also investigating opportunities to develop or acquire other advanced technologies with focus on clean renewable energy, such as novel systems for energy-related water treatment, and processes for carbon dioxide conversion and carbon loop closure, and biological fuel cells.  Collaborations with leading research institutes, such as University of Colorado and the University of Wyoming will allow the Company to focus on identifying and acquiring or developing a portfolio of growth opportunities with compelling market values and clean energy and environmental stewardship.
 
We are a technology provider and service company that assist owners of natural gas & oil production resources to increase the efficiency of their operations.  We do not plan to own or develop natural gas production projects.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company re-entered the development stage while it continues to develop and market the new technologies discussed above.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF MARCH 31, 2014
(UNAUDITED)

(B) Liquidity and Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.  The Company has incurred recurring net losses from operations and recognized minimal revenues since inception.  The Company has a net loss of $1,259,717, and net cash used in operations of $811,892 for the six months ended March 31, 2014.  Additionally, as of March 31, 2014, the Company had $109,938 in cash and cash equivalents and $345,879 in liabilities.  As of May 15, 2014, our cash balance was approximately $60,800.  These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Due to the nature of current operations, and new license agreements and business activities (as described throughout the annual report and financial statements), the Company will require substantial funding to implement its new business operations, and it will need more financing than was previously required.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be different should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.  The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the ability to obtain additional operating capital through equity or debt financing, and attain profitability.  There can be no assurances that the Company will be able to obtain financing or achieve profitability.

(C) Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required 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 revenues and expenses during the reported period, as well as assumptions used in our multiple element revenue arrangements. Significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of inventory, valuation of equity based compensation and valuation of deferred tax assets.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(D) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  At March 31, 2014 and September 30, 2013, respectively, the Company had no cash equivalents.

(E) Loss Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.

NEXT FUEL, INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF MARCH 31, 2014
(UNAUDITED)

Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilutive effects of stock options, warrants, and stock equivalents.  To the extent stock options, stock equivalents and warrants are anti-dilutive; they are excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share.  For the six months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 respectively, 946,666 and 2,540,000 shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options were not included in the computation of loss per share because their inclusion is anti-dilutive. 

(F) Equipment

The Company records property and equipment at cost and depreciates these assets using the straight-line method over their expected useful life. The Company uses a five year life for furniture and equipment.

(G) Intangible Assets

The Company amortizes intangible assets with a finite life over their life and reviews goodwill and intangible assets for impairment annually or more frequently if impairment indicators arise.  Any other intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are not subject to amortization (See Note 2(B)).

(H) Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognizes the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans.  Compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value.  Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.

Equity instruments (“instruments”) issued to persons other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments.  In general, the measurement date for shares issued to non-employees is (a) when a performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) when the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF MARCH 31, 2014
(UNAUDITED)

(I) Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of the changes in tax laws and rates as of the date of enactment.

The Company has no significant uncertain tax positions as of any date in the six months ended March 31, 2014 or the year ended September 30, 2013, respectively.  The Company’s policy is to recognize accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions in interest expense, and to recognize tax penalties in operating expense.  The Company made no provision for interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2014.  The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction.  There are currently no federal or state income tax examinations underway, including all open tax years (2010 – 2013) for these jurisdictions.

(J) Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

The Company's revenue transactions include the following: additives, consulting services, royalties, and intellectual property licensing.  The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned.  The timing and the amount of revenue recognized from the licensing of intellectual property depend upon a variety of factors, including the specific terms of each agreement and the nature of the deliverables and obligations.  For the sale of multiple-element arrangements, including whereby additives, consulting or intellectual property is combined in a revenue generating transaction with other elements, the Company allocates to, and recognizes revenue from, the various elements based on their relative selling price. The Company allocates to, and recognizes revenue from, the various elements of multiple-element arrangements based on relative selling price of a deliverable, using: vendor-specific objective evidence, third-party evidence, and best estimated selling price in accordance with the selling price hierarchy.

(K) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for prepaid expenses and accounts payable approximate fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments as of March 31, 2014 and September 30, 2013.

(L) Concentration of Credit Risk

Although all of the Company’s assets are in the United States of America, substantially all of the revenue for the year ended September 30, 2013 was from one related party licensee in the People’s Republic of China and two unrelated parties in Indonesia and India.

(M) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There are no recent accounting pronouncements that affect the Company.

(N) Discontinued Operations

In February, 2014, the Company sold its CTG Technology to a related party and discontinued its operations outside the United States with respect to that technology.   The technology was previously expensed as research and development and, therefore, there are no assets associated with the discontinued operations.  Liabilities associated with the discontinued operations consist of accounts payable related to the CTG Technology in the amount of $15,000 as of March 31, 2014 and $23,185 as of September 30, 2013.  Loss from discontinued operations for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2014 was $35,791 and 146,871, respectively.  Loss from discontinued operations for the three months and six months ended March 31, 2013 was $245,869 and 439,519, respectively.

Certain amounts in the prior periods presented have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation for discontinued operations.  These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net loss.

On April 20, 2012, Next Fuel acquired the rights to certain intellectual property, as further described below.  These rights were acquired with cash (see Note 7).  The intellectual property rights that were acquired were in the form of rights to new technologies and assignment of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 61624313 entitled “Transition Metals Enhancement of Biogenic Natural Gas Production”, filed on April 15, 2012.  Due to early stage and requirement for further development of these technologies, the fact that Next Fuel was a development stage company at the time of acquisition, and the significant uncertainty of recoverability in the future; the Company has expensed the costs of these transactions to research and development at the time of the acquisitions.  The CTG Technology in China was sold in February 2014 to a company owned by a shareholder/director of the Company in exchange for the return of 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. (See Note 3(E))  The Company retained the rights to the CTG Technology for the United States.

On February 12, 2012 and March 28, 2011, Next Fuel acquired the rights to certain intellectual property, as further described below.  These rights were acquired through the issuance of stock options and minimal cash consideration in February 2012 (see Note 4) and the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock and stock warrants in March 2011.  The intellectual property rights that were acquired were in the form of the rights to new technologies.  Provisional patent applications were filed for each.  Due to early stage and requirement for further development of these technologies, the fact that Next Fuel was a development stage company at the time of acquisition, and the significant uncertainty of recoverability in the future; the Company has expensed the costs of these transactions to research and development at the time of the acquisitions.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)
 
Although the company has expensed these technologies, the company believes that this intellectual property and associated patent applications were instrumental in the company’s ability to raise $1,525,000 in April 2012.   The company believes there is a large market for new green technology associated with clean coal initiatives and the acquired technology will position the company to take advantage and participate in this market if this market grows and we develop this technology.

In February 2012, Next Fuel acquired the rights to two new technologies from individual inventors (LPV Technology and CTP Technology described below).  Both technologies are early stage and will require further development before we understand their full commercial potential. Provisional U. S. patent applications were filed for each.

Coal-to-Gas (CTG) Technology
Next Fuel, Inc. is a technology provider and service company that assists owners of natural gas and oil production resources to increase the efficiency of their operations.  In February, 2014, the Company sold its Coal to Gas technology to Star Holding (U.K.) Ltd., which is controlled by Mr. Guangwei Guo, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company who also controls the Company’s China licensee.  The primary terms of the sale were that Mr. Guo transferred 600,000 shares of common stock of the Company back to the Company and terminated the Company’s obligation to maintain a registration statement for resale of the remaining 1,851,666 shares of the Company’s common stock owned by Mr. Guo and his business associates.  Due to the related party nature of this transaction no gain was recorded related to the sale, and the transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction.  Although the Company retains a license in the United States, the Company lacks financial resources to begin any United States Coal to Gas projects and is not currently in negotiations with any prospective partners or sub-licensees.

Low Energy-input Pervaporation (LPV) Technology
The Company expects to launch its LPV water treatment technology after completing tests later this calendar year.  This LPV technology will provide the oil and gas industry with a new cost-effective method for treating waste water that contains the most challenging, high-salt and total dissolved solids used or produced in U.S. oil & gas operations to help the industry deal with environmental restrictions on operations.

(UNAUDITED)

Although the company has expensed the costs of these technologies, it is the company’s belief that this intellectual property and associated patent applications may provide growth opportunities for the company in the highly competitive markets associated with oil & gas produced water and carbon dioxide sequestration.  Given the early stage of the two technologies acquired, the company believes they will not make significant contributions to the company's business for several years.
 
The Company has placed a deposit of $100,000 to test a new Disk Filtration Unit.  This system will allow for the removal of solids from waste water streams and has applications across a multitude of industries.  If tests are successful, the Company has the right to purchase the technology for an additional $800,000.
 
(C)  Other Current Assets
 
On November 6, 2012, the Company purchased a two-year Certificate of Deposit in the amount of $75,000 to be held as security for the issuance of Company credit cards.  The Certificate of Deposit bears a current interest rate of .35% and a maturity date of November 6, 2014.  Interest earned and accumulated for the six months ended March 31, 2014 was $112.  As of March 31, 2014, the balance owed on the Company credit cards secured by the Certificate of Deposit was $5,604.

(D)  Deposits
 
On October 30, 2013, the Company made an initial deposit of $100,000 in connection with a non-binding letter of intent for the purchase of Integra Water Filtration Units and Technology.  The deposit is non-refundable.  As of March 31, 2014, no firm purchase agreement has been reached.  (See Note 2(B)).

Recent Events

Recent events you should be aware of about our business include the following events:
 
China and Inner Mongolia Exclusive License
 
On February 21, 2014 the Company sold its Coal to Gas technology to Star Holding (U.K.) Ltd., which is controlled by Mr. Guangwei Guo, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company who also controls the Company’s China licensee. The primary terms of the sale were that Mr. Guo transferred back to the Company 600,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company and terminated the Company’s obligation to maintain a registration statement for resale of the remaining 1,851,666 shares of the Company owned by Mr. Guo and his business associates. Although the Company retains a license in the United States, the Company lacks financial resources to begin any United States Coal to Gas projects and is not currently in negotiations with any prospective partners or sub-licensees.
 
Our History

We, Next Fuel, Inc. (NXFI), were organized in the State of Nevada in August 2007 under the name Clinical Trials of the Americas, Inc. Our stock began trading on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board ("OTCBB") on June 11, 2008 under the trading symbol "CLLL". We were not successful in raising sufficient capital to support a clinical trials business. On May 21, 2009, we changed our name to Next Fuel, Inc.

On March 31, 2011, we purchased certain technology and intellectual property, which we used as the first step toward building a business that provides a range of technology and services to the oil and gas industry.  More importantly, with the addition of our Low Energy Input Pervaporation (“LPV”) and other water treatment technologies, we believe we are on the right path to build a business targeting the multi-billion dollar water treatment industry.

Our principal office and mailing address is located at 821 Frank Street, Sheridan, Wyoming 82801 and our telephone number is (307) 674-2145.
 
Plan of Operation

We are a technology provider and service company with a current focus on technology and products that have immediate and future promise in the water treatment industry.  We are continuing development of our LPV technology and are evaluating several other water treatment technologies that we may have the opportunity to license or purchase to give the company a wide range of water treatment options.
 
 
-22-

 
 
Our technology and services are all in various stages of development or are being investigated by us as targets for acquisition.  None has generated substantial revenue for us to date and we face substantial challenges in completing development or acquisition of these technologies and services businesses.  These technology and services include:
 
 
Certain technology and intellectual property useful in extracting natural gas from coal (the "Coal-to-Gas Technology" or "CTG Technology").  The Company sold this Technology to a related party as described above in this document and retained certain U.S. rights.
 
Low Energy Input Pervaporation (LPV) Technology to clean up water used in oil and natural gas production, including Frac drilling.  This technology is still in development stage, but has shown promise as a commercial venture in the near future.
 
Carbon Dioxide to Product (CTP) Technology we acquired targets the emerging market of carbon footprint elimination.  We currently are not working on this technology, but believe it could have commercial viability at a later stage.
 
Disk filtration technology to remove suspended solids in the range of 200 microns to as small as 5  microns in size.  We are currently testing this technology..  Initial testing has been very positive and we expect to complete testing of the technology in several different industrial applications by June of this year.

During the period from inception to the period ended March 31, 2011 we did not conduct an active business and devoted our efforts to capital raising activities and acquisition activity, including the capital raising and Coal-to Gas Technology described elsewhere in this Report. Most of the expense we incurred during this period related to acquisition activities. Since March 31, 2011, we have focused our operations on the businesses related to agreements with natural gas developers in China, Inner Mongolia, Indonesia and India, but as stated in Item 2 under Recent Events, the Company has sold this technology.

During 2014, we expect to complete development and commercial launch of our LPV technology for cleaning waste water from oil and gas drilling operations.  Bench scale tests have been completed in the lab and testing of a larger scale prototype began recently. Efforts to build a field scale unit have been delayed by engineering issues related to using larger membranes.  The University of Wyoming, our research partner, is working on these engineering issues.  We expect that these technical difficulties will be mitigated this year and we will continue in our efforts to further develop this technology.  After we obtain the results generated from the larger test, we will commence negotiating with a potential licensee that would have the capability to bring this technology to a commercial level.

In 2011, our financial statements were presented as a development stage company. However, in 2012, we entered into an exclusive license agreement in China and Mongolia for the right to use our CTG technology, which resulted in the generation of revenue. Accordingly, at that time we believed that we transitioned from a development stage company to an operating stage company during the fourth quarter of 2012.  As the Company has sold  the CTG technology,  and we are currently not otherwise able to generate substantial revenue, we have taken on the classification of  a development stage company for financial reporting purposes.
 
Raising capital to implement our planned development and acquisition of new products and services will be a primary focus for us during 2014.

We had a loss from discontinued operations of $245,869 during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and $439,519 during the six months ended March 31, 2013.

This resulted in a net loss of $810,395 during the three months ended March  31, 2013 and a net loss of $1,561,766 during the six months ended March 31, 2013.

Operating expenses from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 included $317,961 for salary expense, $127,365 for professional fees and $118,233 for general and administrative expenses.  Operating expenses from continuing operations for the six months ended March 31, 2013 included $476,738 for salary expense, $316,628 for professional fees and $329,104 for general and administrative expenses.  Most of the professional fees and expenses were for financial reporting compliance.  Travel to our field test sites also constituted a substantial expense.
 
Capital Resources and Liquidity

As of March 31, 2014, we had $109,938 in cash and cash equivalents and $345,879  of liabilities. Cash and cash equivalents from inception to date have been sufficient to cover expenses involved in starting our business. However, because of the business activities described elsewhere in this Report we will require substantially more funds to implement our new business during the next twelve months than we previously required.

We do not have enough cash to satisfy our expected minimum cash requirements to operate our business for the next twelve months and will be required to generate capital through the sale of stock or debt financing. We also expect our operating expenses to increase before our revenues increase. Therefore, we will continue to depend on sales of capital stock or debt financing until we generate sufficient revenue.

Cash flows for Six Months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013

Net cash used in operating activities during the three six ended March 31, 2014 was $811,892 compared to $1,167,455 used in the six months ended March 31, 2013. Net cash flow used in investing activities during the six months ended March 31, 2014 was $100,112 compared to $77,157 for the six months ended March 31, 2013. We had no financing activities during the six months ended March 31, 2014. Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended March 31, 2013 was $55,500. The following table summarizes our cash flows for the six months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013:

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue on arrangements only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
 
The Company recognizes revenue from royalty agreements as the royalties are earned. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of additives at the time the products are delivered. The price is fixed and collection is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue under service agreements when the services are complete and the Company has no remaining obligations under the agreements.

Our revenue model for license agreements may include different types of payments: (1) upfront license fees; (2) annual fixed payments for each Gas Generating Unit in which the licensee deploys our technology; (3) royalties calculated as a percentage of the sale price of the gas our licensee produces, (4) payments for technical support or other services; and (5) payments for amendments we supply to licensees. Each license provides for one or more of these types of payments. Not every license we enter into is expected to include all these forms of payments.
 
We will recognize each type of revenue as follows:

(1) Upfront license fees – These payments will be recognized in accordance with the License Agreement and may be deferred over the term of the agreement or the period of the estimated benefit to the customer.

(2) Annual fixed payments for each Gas Generating Unit in which the licensee deploys our technology – These payments will be recognized in accordance with the License Agreement and portions may be deferred until all work is complete.

(3) Royalties calculated as a percentage of the sale price of the gas our licensee produces - These payments will be recognized in accordance with the License Agreement and should be recognized when paid as the payment will come after the sale of produced gas.

(4) Payments for technical support or other services - These payments will be recognized in accordance with the License Agreement and could be deferred until all work is complete.
 
(5) Payments for amendments we supply to licensees - These payments will be recognized in accordance with the License Agreement and should be recognized when we deliver the nutrients.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, the Company had no cash equivalents.

Loss Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.

Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflected the potential dilutive effects of stock options, warrants, and stock equivalents. To the extent stock options, stock equivalents and warrants are anti-dilutive, they are excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share. For the six months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, 946,666 and 2,540,000 shares issuable upon the exercise of  stock options were not included in the computation of loss per share because their inclusion is anti-dilutive.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company measures the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognizes the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant. The Company applies this statement prospectively.

Equity instruments (“instruments”) issued to persons other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments. In general, the measurement date for shares issued to non-employees is (a) when a performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) when the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the ASC 505.
 
Income Taxes

Deferred assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There are no recent accounting pronouncements that affect the Company.
 
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
 
Item 3.        Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
Not required for smaller reporting Companies.

Item 4.        Controls and Procedures
 
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. At the conclusion of the period ended March 31, 2014 we conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer determined that our controls to ensure that the accounting department has adequate training and experience for public company external reporting was not adequate. On April 23, 2013, the Company formed an Audit Committee to oversee the financial reporting process, but the Audit Committee does not have a charter and not all members meet regulatory standards for independence and financial expert experience. Accordingly, based on these material weaknesses, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this Report, March 31, 2014, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules.
 
The Company's management is addressing these weaknesses by starting the process of seeking to recruit independent Directors so that the Company's Audit Committee that meets regulatory requirements for independence and financial expert experience. The Company also started the process of retaining additional staff to assist its internal staff with compliance issues. However, budgetary constraints make it unlikely that we will increase our internal staff until after we raise additional capital.

 (b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this report, we did not make any changes  in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
Because of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.        Legal Proceedings
 
We are not currently involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect. See Item 1A "Risk Factors" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on December 23, 2013 and of this Report for a description of issues that we have identified as having the highest risks for our becoming involved in litigation or regulatory proceedings.
 
Item 1A.     Risk Factors
 
The description of our business and finances and other parts of this Report contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, those described below and in prior Reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

You should carefully consider the risk factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2013 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 23, 2013, together with all of the other information included in this Report, before investing in our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described below encompass many of the risks that could affect our business and the value of our stock. Not all risks and uncertainties are described. Risks that we do not know about could occur and issues we now view as minor could become more important. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you may lose all or part of your investment.

We refer you to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2013 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 23, 2013 for detailed discussion of the primary risks associated with our business and our securities.  We believe these risks have not materially changed since we filed our Form 10-K on December 23, 2013, except that, as discussed elsewhere in this report, we have sold our Coal to Gas (CTG) technology.  These developments may adversely impact our ability to enter into other license agreements, to generate revenue and raise capital at acceptable valuations, all of which increase the risks to our shareholders.
