EXPLANATORY NOTE

We are filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A to amend and restate in their entirety the following items of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 as originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 17, 2015 (the “Original Form 10-Q”): (i) Item 1 of Part I “Financial Information,” (ii) Item 2 of Part I, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” (iii) Item 4 of Part I, “Controls and Procedures,” and (iv) Item 6 of Part II, “Exhibits”, and we have also updated the signature page, the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1 and 32.2, and our financial statements formatted in Extensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) in Exhibits 101. No other sections were affected, but for the convenience of the reader, this report on Form 10-Q/A restates in its entirety, as amended, our Original Form 10-Q. This report on Form 10-Q/A is presented as of the filing date of the Original Form 10-Q and does not reflect events occurring after that date, or modify or update disclosures in any way other than as required to reflect the explanation and restatement described below. Concurrently with the filing of this Form 10-Q/A, we are also filing Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2014, as originally filed with the SEC on December 22, 2014 (the “Original Form 10-K”), to provide similar updates.

In conjunction with the private placement of our 10% Convertible Preferred Stock in April 2012 and November 2014 we issued warrants which contained anti-dilution adjustment provisions that protect the holders from the dilutive effects of subsequent issuances of our Common Stock at prices below the warrants’ exercise prices. These provisions, however unlikely to be triggered, could result in downward adjustments of the exercise prices of the warrants and, therefore, increases in the number of shares of our Common Stock issuable upon their exercise. In October 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASU 2012-04, Technical Corrections and Improvements (“ASU 2012-04”), which contained technical corrections to guidance on which we had previously relied in forming our initial conclusions regarding the accounting for warrants containing these anti-dilution protections. Based upon our extensive review of ASU 2012-04, we have now concluded that these warrants did not meet the criteria for classification as equity, as previously recorded, and must be recorded as a liability, with the value of the warrants recorded at fair value on the transition/effective date, and subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings on a quarterly basis. Based on transition guidance provided, we determined our effective/transition date for implementation of ASU 2012-04 to be October 1, 2013.

As a result of the foregoing, we have determined that our previously reported results for the three months ended December 31, 2014 should no longer be relied upon and need to be updated to reflect the retroactive correction of this accounting error and correctly reflect the accounting for the value of the warrants containing anti-dilution protections pursuant to the guidance provided by ASU 2012-04. The condensed consolidated balance sheets, the condensed consolidated statements of operations, the condensed consolidated statement of changes in stockholders (deficit) equity and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 2014 included in this Form 10-Q/A, have been restated to include the effects of the correction of this accounting error. In addition, we have made necessary conforming changes in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” resulting from the correction of this error. Our condensed consolidated financial statements (including audit reports), other financial information and related disclosures included in the Original Form 10-K and the Original Form 10-Q, as well as press releases, investor presentations or other communications issued prior to the date hereof that relate to the periods covered by the Original Form 10-K and Original Form 10-Q should not be relied upon and are superseded in their entirety by this Form 10-Q/A and the Form 10-K/A being filed concurrently herewith.

Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Nature of Operations, Risks, and Uncertainties

American Power Group Corporation (together with its subsidiaries “we”, “us” or “our”) was originally founded in 1992 and has operated as a Delaware corporation since 1995.

Recent Developments

On October 27, 2014, we entered into loan agreement with Iowa State Bank in which we refinanced approximately $2,567,000 due to the bank under an existing loan agreement, $30,000 of transaction fees and $150,000 due one of our officers. Under the terms of the new term loan, we will make 82 monthly payments of $44,223 including principal and interest commencing January 15, 2015, with the final payment of all principal and accrued interest not yet paid due on October 15, 2021. In addition, Iowa State Bank has provided a new $500,000 working capital line of credit which has an initial expiration of January 15, 2016. (See Note 9)

On November 28, 2014, we completed a private placement for $2 million of Series B 10% Convertible Preferred Stock with an accredited investor. (See Note 10)

On December 8, 2014, we were notified by the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") of our first 28 approvals under the Inside Useful Life ("IUL") designation which is defined as vehicular engines older than 2 years but having less than 435,000 miles which are principally engine family years 2010 and newer that utilize the OEM selective catalyst reduction technology. We believe that of the approximately 3.5- 4 million Class 8 trucks operating in North America, an estimated 600,000 to 700,000 Class 8 trucks fall into the IUL designation.

Nature of Operations, Risks, and Uncertainties

Our patented dual fuel conversion system is a unique external fuel delivery enhancement system that converts existing diesel engines into more efficient and environmentally friendly engines that have the flexibility, depending on the circumstances, to run on:


•	Diesel fuel and compressed natural gas (CNG) or liquefied natural gas (LNG);


•	Diesel fuel and pipeline gas, conditioned well-head gas or approved bio-methane; or


•	100% diesel fuel.

Our proprietary technology seamlessly displaces up to 75% of the normal diesel fuel consumption with various forms of natural gas with average displacement ranges from 40% to 65%. Installation requires no engine modification, unlike the more expensive fuel injected alternative fuel systems in the market.

By displacing highly polluting and expensive diesel fuel with inexpensive, abundant and cleaner burning natural gas, a user can:


•	Reduce fuel and operating costs by 10% to 35%;


•	Reduce toxic emissions such as nitrogen oxide (NOX), carbon monoxide (CO) and fine particulate emissions; and


•	Enhance the engine’s operating life, since natural gas is a cleaner burning fuel source.

Primary end market applications include both primary and back-up diesel generators as well as heavy-duty vehicular diesel engines.

As of December 31, 2014, we had $2,527,228 in cash, cash equivalents and restricted certificates of deposit and working capital of $1,977,233. As of December 31, 2014, under the terms of our working capital line we had sufficient collateral to borrow and additional $120,000 above the then outstanding balance.

Based on our fiscal 2015 operating budget, cash on hand at December 31, 2014 and anticipated availability under our bank working capital line, we believe we will be able to satisfy our cash requirements through at least the first quarter of calendar 2016 without the need to materially modify our operating plan. We continue to evaluate multiple financing alternatives should we determine the need to supplement existing cash flows from operations in order to fund operations or accelerate certain revenue related initiatives. We understand our continued existence is dependent on our ability to generate positive operating cash flow, achieve profitability on a sustained basis and generate improved performance. If we are unable to achieve and sustain profitability and we are unable to obtain additional financing to supplement our cash position, our ability to maintain our current level of operations could be materially and adversely affected. There is no guarantee we will be able to obtain additional financing or achieve profitability.

2. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Power Group Corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying interim financial statements at December 31, 2014 are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The balance sheet at September 30, 2014 has been derived from the audited financial statements as of that date; certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations, although we believe the disclosures which have been made herein are adequate to ensure that the information presented is not misleading. The results of operations for the interim periods reported are not necessarily indicative of those that may be reported for a full year. In our opinion, all adjustments which are necessary for a fair statement of our financial position as of December 31, 2014 and the operating results for the interim periods ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 have been included.

3. Correction of an Accounting Error

The warrants issued in connection with our 10% Convertible Preferred Stock contain anti-dilution protection provisions including certain reset features (down-round protection) which protects the holders from future issuances of our Common Stock at prices below such warrants' then-in-effect respective exercise prices (See Note 11). This provision, however unlikely to occur, could result in modification of the warrants then-in-effect. In October 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), issued ASU 2012-04 Technical Corrections and Improvement ("ASU 2012-04") which contained technical corrections to guidance on which we had previously relied upon in forming our initial conclusions regarding the accounting for warrants containing these reset provisions relating to the April 2012 and November 2014 private placements of our 10% Convertible Preferred Stock. Based upon our extensive review of ASU 2012-04, we have concluded these warrants no longer meet the criteria for classification as equity as previously recorded and must be recorded as a liability with the value of the warrants recorded at fair value on the transition/effective date, with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings on a quarterly basis. Based on transition guidance provided, we determined our effective/transition date for implementation of ASU 2012-04 to be October 1, 2013 and the consolidated condensed financial statements contained herein reflect the retroactive impact of this correction of this accounting error as of this date. The restated historical information is as follows:

4. Certificates of Deposit

All certificate of deposit investments have an original maturity of more than three months but less than three years and are stated at original purchase price which approximates fair value. As of December 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014, we have pledged a $300,000 certificate of deposit as collateral for outstanding loans with Iowa State Bank.

5. Receivables

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful accounts. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating past due individual customer receivables and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history, and the current economic conditions. Individual accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible, with any future recoveries recorded as income when received.

Seller’s Note Receivable, Related Party

In conjunction with the July 2009 acquisition of substantially all the American Power Group operating assets, including the name American Power Group (excluding its dual fuel patent), we acquired a promissory note from the previous owners of American Power Group (renamed M&R Development, Inc.), payable to us, in the principal amount of $797,387. The note bears interest at the rate of 5.5% per annum and was based on the difference between the assets acquired and the consideration given.

In conjunction with our 10% Convertible Preferred Stock financing in April 2012, we amended the note to increase the amount of royalties payable under a technology license (see Note 6) that can be applied to the outstanding principal and interest payments to 50% and to defer all interest and principal payments due under the note during calendar 2012 and 2013. Thereafter, the aggregate principal amount due under the note was to be paid in eight equal quarterly payments plus interest. In addition, M&R will not be required to make any payments under the note until such time as we begin to make royalty payments and at that time, those payments will be limited to a maximum of 50% of any royalty payment due M&R on a quarterly basis. No payments have been made under the amended note as of December 31, 2014. We have classified 100% of the balance as long term. We consider this a related party note as one of the former owners of American Power Group is now an employee of ours.

6. Inventory

Raw material inventory primarily consists of dual fuel conversion components. Work in progress includes materials, labor and direct overhead associated with incomplete dual fuel conversion projects. As of December 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014, we recorded an inventory valuation allowance of $69,761 and $71,629.

All inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market on the first-in first-out (FIFO) method. Inventory consists of the following:



	December 31, 2014		September 30, 2014
Raw materials	$	673,691	$	694,479
Work in progress	68,597		30,913
Finished goods	55,073		68,819
Total inventory	$	797,361	$	794,211

7. Intangible Assets

We review intangibles for impairment annually, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of our intangible assets below their carrying value.

In conjunction with the American Power Group acquisition and license agreement, we recorded intangible assets of $500,000 associated with the execution of a long term technology license agreement and $500,000 associated with the purchase of the dual fuel conversion technology. Both values are being amortized on a straight line basis over an estimated useful life of 120 months. Amortization expenses associated with the long term technology license agreement and the purchased dual fuel conversion technology amounted to $25,000 and $25,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Accumulated amortization was $541,667 at December 31, 2014 and $516,666 at September 30, 2014.

In conjunction with the 10% Convertible Preferred Stock financing in April 2012, we amended the M&R technology license agreement to modify the calculation and the timing of the royalty payments. Under this amendment, effective April 27, 2012, the monthly royalty due is the lesser of 10% of net sales or 30% of pre-royalty EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization). No royalties will be earned or due until such time as our cumulative EBITDA commencing April 1, 2012 is positive on a cumulative basis. During the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, we incurred $0 royalties to M&R.

A critical component of our dual fuel aftermarket conversion solution is the internally developed software component of our electronic control unit. The software allows us to seamlessly and constantly monitor and control the various gaseous fuels to maximize performance and emission reduction while remaining within all original OEM diesel engine performance parameters. We have developed a base software application and EPA testing protocol for both our Outside Useful Life ("OUL") and Intermediate Useful Life ("IUL") engine applications, which will be customized for each engine family approved in order to maximize the performance of the respective engine family.

As of December 31, 2014, we have capitalized $4,039,339 of software development costs associated with our OUL ($1,801,506) and IUL ($2,237,833) applications, which will be amortized on a straight line basis over an estimated useful life of 60 months for OUL applications and 84 months for IUL applications. Amortization costs for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $129,985 and $109,488, respectively.

Amortization expense associated with intangibles during the next five years is anticipated to be:



Twelve months ending December 31:	Contracts		Technology		Software Development		Total
2015	$	50,000	$	50,000	$	670,443	$	770,443

8. Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment consist of the following:



	December 31, 2014			September 30, 2014			Estimated Useful Lives
Leasehold improvements	$	127,087		$	127,087		5 years
Machinery and equipment	1,657,071			1,653,127			3 - 7 years
Less accumulated depreciation	(1,024,150		)	(948,432		)
	$	760,008		$	831,782

9. Product Warranty Costs

We provide for the estimated cost of product warranties for our dual fuel products at the time product revenue is recognized. Factors that affect our warranty reserves include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty repairs, and the cost per repair. We assess the adequacy of the warranty provision and we may adjust this provision if necessary. Our warranty reserve decreased during the three months ended December 31, 2014, as a result of an increase in claims primarily related to our efforts in Canada to expand the number of stationary engine families we can convert, in response to market demand. Warranty accrual is included in accrued expenses.

The following table provides the detail of the change in our product warranty accrual relating to dual fuel products as of:



	Three Months Ended			Year Ended
	December 31, 2014			September 30, 2014
Warranty accrual at the beginning of the period	$	221,562		$	118,591
Charged to costs and expenses relating to new sales	15,648			212,033
Costs of product warranty claims	(51,112		)	(109,062		)
Warranty accrual at the end of period	$	186,098		$	221,562

10. Notes Payable/Credit Facilities

The following summarizes our notes payable as of December 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014.



	December 31, 2014			September 30, 2014			Due Date	Interest Rate

Iowa State Bank, line of credit	$	380,000		$	2,500,000		January 15, 2016	8%

Less current portion	(332,723		)	(246,550		)
Notes payable, non-current portion	$	2,839,301		$	2,364,431

Credit Facilities

On October 27, 2014, we entered into loan agreement and new working capital line of credit with Iowa State Bank in which we refinanced approximately $2,567,000 due to the bank under an existing loan agreement, $30,000 for transaction fees and $150,000 due one of our officers. Under the terms of the new term loan, we will make 82 monthly payments of $44,223 including principal and interest commencing January 15, 2015, with the final payment of all principal and accrued interest not yet paid due on October 15, 2021. The credit facility requires us to meet certain monthly loan covenants.

Iowa State Bank has provided a new $500,000 working capital line of credit which has an initial expiration of January 15, 2016. The maximum amount we may borrow under the line of credit is subject to adequate collateral.

All borrowings under the term loan and the line of credit bear interest at a rate equal to the base rate on corporate loans posted by at least 70% of the 10 largest U.S. banks (known as The Wall Street Journal U.S. Prime Rate) plus 4.0%, with a minimum interest rate of 8.0% per annum. Our obligations due Iowa State Bank continue to be secured by the grant of a first priority security interest in all of our assets including a $300,000 certificate of deposit. In addition, under the terms of a stock transfer agreement, should we fail to make any payment when due, we have agreed to issue Iowa State Bank that number of shares of common stock which is equal in value to the past due amount. For purposes of determining the number of shares of common stock to be issued under the stock transfer agreement, the value of our common stock will be deemed to be the closing price of the common stock on the date of such default. In no event, however, will we be obligated to issue more than 2,000,000 shares of the common stock under the stock transfer agreement. In addition, two directors and two officers have each pledged 125,000 shares of our common stock as additional collateral to Iowa State Bank.

Note Payable-Related Party- Other

In September and October 2010, an officer and former director loaned us a total of $323,500 in connection with a private placement of 12% six-month promissory notes. In October 2011, an officer loaned us $150,000 pursuant to the terms of a 10% promissory note due November 27, 2011. In conjunction with the 10% Convertible Preferred Stock financing in April 2012, these officers and former director agreed to extend the maturity of their notes until April 30, 2014 and reduce their interest rate to 8%.

In October 2014, we paid the estate of our former director the remaining principal balance of $198,500 and on October 27, 2014, the $150,000 note due to an officer was paid from the proceeds of our new 82 month term note with Iowa State Bank. As of December 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014, notes payable for related parties were $50,000 and $398,500, respectively.

11. Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

In conjunction with the private placement of our 10% Convertible Preferred stock in April 2012 and November 2014, we issued warrants which contained a "down-round" provision that provides for a reduction in the warrant exercise price if there are subsequent issuances of additional shares of common stock for consideration per share less than the per share warrant exercise prices. In October 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), issued ASU 2012-04 Technical Corrections and Improvement ("ASU 2012-04") which contained technical corrections to guidance on which we had previously relied upon in forming our initial conclusions regarding the accounting for warrants containing these reset provisions. Pursuant to this guidance and effective commencing October 1, 2013, we have recognized the fair value of these warrants as a liability and have re-measured the fair value of these warrants on a quarterly basis with any increase or decrease in the estimated fair value being recorded in other income or expense for the respective quarterly reporting period.

We have historically used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of options and warrants. We have considered the facts and circumstances in choosing the Black-Scholes model to calculate the fair value of the warrants with a down-round price protection feature as well as the likelihood of triggering the down-round price protection feature, which, as described below, we have concluded is remote.

In determining the initial fair value of the warrants associated with the April 2012 Convertible Preferred Stock private placement as of October 1, 2013, we prepared a valuation simulation using the Black Scholes option pricing model as well as additional models using a modified Black Scholes option pricing model and a Binomial Tree option pricing model. We determined the initial fair value of the warrants associated with the November 2014 Convertible Preferred Stock private placement to be $694,631 based on a valuation simulation using the Black Scholes option pricing model. Both additional simulations included various reset scenarios, different exercise prices, and other assumptions, such as price volatility and interest rates, that were kept consistent with our original Black-Scholes model. The resulting warrant values as determined under the modified Black-Scholes model and the Binomial Tree option model were not materially different from the values generated using the Black-Scholes model. We have therefore determined to use the Black-Scholes model as we believe it provides a reasonable basis for valuation and takes into consideration the relevant factors of the warrants, including the down round provision.

During the three months ended December 31, 2014, we recorded warrant valuation income of $4,487,006 associated with the change in the estimated fair value of all warrants containing the down round provision outstanding as of December 31, 2014. Our warrant liability was $2,704,626 as of December 31, 2014.

The warrant liabilities were valued at December 31, 2014 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions.

Private Placement 3 - November 28, 2014, sale of 200 shares of Series B 10% Convertible Preferred Stock

12. Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amount of our receivables and payables approximate their fair value due to their short maturities.

Accounting principles provide guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The guidance includes a three level hierarchy of valuation techniques used to measure fair value, defined as follows:


•	Level 1 - Unadjusted Quoted Prices. The fair value of an asset or liability is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.


•	Level 2 - Pricing Models with Significant Observable Inputs. The fair value of an asset or liability is based on information derived from either an active market quoted price, which may require further adjustment based on the attributes of the financial asset or liability being measured, or an inactive market transaction.


•	Level 3 - Pricing Models with Significant Unobservable Inputs. The fair value of an asset or liability is primarily based on internally derived assumptions surrounding the timing and amount of expected cash flows for the financial instrument. Therefore, these assumptions are unobservable in either an active or inactive market.

We consider an active market as one in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Conversely, we view an inactive market as one in which there are few transactions of the asset or liability, the prices are not current, or price quotations vary substantially either over time or amount market makers. When appropriate, non-performance risk, or that of a counterparty, is considered in determining the fair values of liabilities and assets, respectively.

We have classified certain warrants related to the 10% Convertible Preferred Stock private placements noted in Note 11 as a Level 3 Liability. Assumptions used in the calculation require significant judgment. The unobservable inputs in our valuation model includes the probability of additional equity financing and whether the additional equity financing would trigger a reset on the down-round protection.

The following table summarizes the financial liabilities measured a fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2014.



	Total		Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets or Liabilities (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

13. Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

During the three months ended December 31, 2014, a holder exercised options to purchase an aggregate of 100,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.41 utilizing a cashless exercise feature resulting in the net issuance of 10,870 shares of Common Stock.

Series B 10% Convertible Preferred Stock

On November 28, 2014, we sold 200 shares of Series B 10% Convertible Preferred Stock for gross proceeds of $2 million (exclusive of $51,881 of transaction related fees) and issued a warrant to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of our Common Stock. Each share of the Series B 10% Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, at any time at the option of the holder, into 25,000 shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.40 per share. The warrant enables the investor to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. The Series B 10% Convertible Preferred Stock has a 10% annual dividend, payable quarterly in cash or in shares of Common Stock. The terms of the Series B 10% Preferred Stock and the warrant are substantially equivalent to the terms of our outstanding 10% Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants issued in April 2012.

We determined the initial value of the Series B 10% Convertible Preferred Stock to be $1,305,369 and the initial value of the investor warrant to be $694,631. We determined a beneficial conversion feature of $394,631 based on the intrinsic value of

the shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to these rights. The value of the beneficial conversion feature is considered a “deemed dividend” and has been recorded as a charge to retained earnings during the three months ended December 31, 2014.

In connection with this transaction, the 2012 securities purchase agreement under which we issued shares of 10% Convertible Preferred Stock and warrants was amended to provide that the issuance of the Series B Preferred Stock would not trigger adjustments to the exercise price of the warrants issued in connection with that agreement. The parties to the 2012 agreement did not otherwise amend the terms of the 10% Convertible Preferred Stock or the related warrants. The offer and sale of the Series B Preferred Stock and the warrant were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), by reason of an exemption from the registration requirements under Section 4(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act. We have agreed not to register these securities, any shares of Common Stock that may be issued upon the conversion or exercise of these securities, or any shares of Common Stock that may be issued as a dividend on the Series B 10% Preferred Stock, for resale under the Securities Act.

10% Convertible Preferred Stock Dividends

During the three months ended December 31, 2014, we recorded a dividend on our 10% Convertible Preferred Stock and Series B 10% Convertible Preferred Stock of $265,324, of which $137,944 was paid in cash. Certain stockholders agreed to accept 387,636 shares of Common Stock (valued at $127,380) in lieu of cash dividend payments.

During the three months ended December 31, 2013, we recorded a dividend on our 10% Convertible Preferred Stock of $245,039, of which $145,533 was paid in cash. Certain stockholders agreed to accept 136,985 shares of Common Stock (valued at $99,506) in lieu of cash dividend payments.

Stock Options

Amortization of stock compensation expense was $9,161 and $24,783 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The unamortized compensation expense at December 31, 2014 was $57,095 and will be amortized over a weighted average remaining life of approximately 2.97 years.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain statements that are “forward-looking.” These forward-looking statements and other information are based on our beliefs as well as assumptions made by us using information currently available. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “will,” “should” and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect our current views with respect to future events, are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, and are not guaranties of future performance. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended or using other similar expressions.

In accordance with the provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 2005, we are making investors aware that such forward-looking statements, because they relate to future events, are by their very nature subject to many important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ from our predictions include those discussed in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 and in Item 1A of this Quarterly Report. Although we have sought to identify the most significant risks to our business, we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized. Nor, can there be any assurance that we have identified all possible issues which we might face. In addition, assumptions relating to budgeting, marketing, product development and other management decisions are subjective in many respects and thus susceptible to interpretations and periodic revisions based on actual experience and business developments, the impact of which may cause us to alter our marketing, capital expenditure or other budgets, which may in turn affect our financial position and results of operations. For all of these reasons, the reader is cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained herein, which speak only as of the date hereof. We assume no responsibility to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise except as required by law.

The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report, and the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014.

Results of Operations

Three Months ended December 31, 2014 Compared to the Three Months ended December 31, 2013

Net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2014 decreased $786,555 or 43% to $1,055,966 as compared to net sales of $1,842,521 for the three months ended December 31, 2013. Due to increased oil reserves and a decrease in the growth rate of demand throughout certain parts of the world the price of oil in the U.S. has dropped to the $50 per barrel range which has resulted in a steady decrease in diesel prices during the three months ended December 31, 2014. While natural gas prices at the pump have remained stable, the price spread between lower diesel prices and natural gas have tightened. Because our dual fuel technology displaces higher cost diesel fuel with lower cost and cleaner burning natural gas, the recent decrease in oil/diesel pricing has impacted the timing of dealer restocking orders and the implementation schedules of existing and prospective customers in the near term due to the current tighter price spread between diesel and natural gas.

North American stationary revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2014 were approximately $981,000 which was $341,000 or 26% lower as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to an initial $750,000 inventory stocking order placed by our new Canadian dealer/installer during the three months ended December 31, 2013 which were subsequently installed during the remainder of fiscal 2014.

Domestic vehicular revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2014 decreased $444,963 or 86% to $75,075 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2013. The decrease was attributable to deferrals of new inventory stocking orders by several WheelTime member distributor/installers as well as several customers as they work through existing dual fuel inventories in light of the recent drop in U.S. oil prices and resulting tighter price spread during the quarter.

During the three months ended December 31, 2014 our gross profit was $269,055 or 25% of net sales as compared to a gross profit of $901,612 or 49% of net sales for the three months ended December 31, 2013. The decrease in gross profit was primarily due to decreased revenues as well as increased direct material costs associated with several functional upgrades and enhancements made to our dual fuel solution.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2014 increased $43,488 or 4% to $1,035,105 as compared to $991,617 for the three months ended December 31 2013.

During the three months ended December 31, 2014 the revaluation of our warrant liability to fair value resulted in non-cash revaluation income of $4,487,006 as compared to a non-cash revaluation expense of $324,201 during the three months ended December 31, 2013.

During the three months ended December 31, 2014, interest and financing expense increased $18,698 or 41% to $64,805 as compared to $46,107 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 due to increased borrowings and interest rates.

Our net income for the three months ended December 31, 2014 increased $4,111,898 or 843% to $3,624,303 or $0.07 per basic share as compared to a net loss of ($487,595) or ($0.01) per basic share for the three months ended December 31, 2013. The calculation of net income (loss) per share available to Common shareholders for the three months ended December 31, 2014 reflects the inclusion of Convertible Preferred Stock quarterly dividends of $265,324 and a beneficial conversion feature of $394,631. The calculation of net loss per share available for Common shareholders for the three months ended December 31, 2013 reflects the inclusion of Convertible Preferred Stock quarterly dividends of $245,039.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2014, we had $2,527,228 in cash, cash equivalents and restricted certificates of deposit and working capital of $1,977,233. As of December 31, 2014, under the terms of our working capital line we had sufficient collateral to borrow an additional $120,000 above the then outstanding balance.

The Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows reflect events for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 as they affect our liquidity. During the three months ended December 31, 2014, net cash provided by operating activities was $279,615. Our net income for the three months ended December 31, 2014 was $3,624,303 inclusive of $4,487,006 of non-cash warrant revaluation income. Our cash flow was positively impacted by the following non-cash expenses and changes to our working capital: the collection of $1,066,635 of accounts receivable and $247,817 of depreciation, amortization and compensation expense associated with stock options.

During the three months ended December 31, 2013, net cash used in operating activities was $124,636. Our net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was $487,595. Our cash flow was positively impacted by non-cash expenses and changes to our working capital of $572,917 consisting of depreciation, amortization, warrants and stock options and was offset by a decrease of $433,635 in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Net cash used in investing activities was $109,608 for the three months ended December 31, 2014, reflecting primarily the capitalization of $106,245 of costs associated with our dual fuel electronic control unit engine family software applications. Net cash used in investing activities was $186,750 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, reflecting the capitalization of $102,811 of costs associated with our dual fuel electronic control unit engine family software applications and the purchase of $83,939 of property, plant and equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,930,801 during the three months ended December 31, 2014, reflecting the net proceeds $1,948,119 from the sale of our Series B Preferred Stock and warrant and $380,000 advanced under our working capital line. Payments made on notes payable totaled $249,457 and we paid dividends to holders of our preferred stock of $147,861. Net cash used in financing activities was $76,787 during the three months ended December 31, 2013, reflecting payments made on notes payable of $51,454 and dividends of $145,533 paid to holders of our preferred stock.

Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices

Generally, we are exposed to the effects of inflation and changing prices. Because our dual fuel conversion technology replaces a certain percentage of diesel fuel with natural gas, we were adversely impacted in the three months ended December 31, 2014 by the material decrease in the net fuel savings between the two fuels. We expect to continue to be impacted positively or negatively by changes in the prices of these fuels relative to one another (for example, if diesel fuel prices decrease and natural gas prices increase). We were unaffected by interest rate changes in the three months ended December 31, 2014, because our only floating rate debt is with Iowa State Bank and at WSJ prime plus 4%, which was below the stated minimum rate of 8%.

Environmental Liability

There are no known material environmental violations or assessments.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not required pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of December 31, 2014. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, we recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management applies judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer identified a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014 as described below.

Based upon management’s evaluation, we concluded that we did not maintain adequate and effective internal control in the area of complex and non-routine transactions as of December 31, 2014. As a result of a correction of an accounting error described in Note 3 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained herein, restatements of our condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2014 and the period ended December 31, 2014 were necessary.

In connection with the material weakness described above, management plans to enhance its review and approval procedures and to provide education and implement accounting reviews as they pertain to complex and non-routine transactions.

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2014 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Improvement in our business depends on our ability to increase demand for our products and services.

We must substantially increase revenues by increasing demand for our dual fuel products and services. Factors that could limit demand for our products and services include potential additional changes in the regulatory environment and material changes in the price spread between diesel fuel and natural gas. Due to increased oil reserves and a decrease in the growth rate of demand throughout certain parts of the world the price of oil in the U.S. has dropped to the $50 per barrel range which has resulted in a steady decrease in diesel prices during the three months ended December 31, 2014. While natural gas prices at the pump have remained stable, the price spread between lower diesel prices and natural gas have tightened. Because our dual fuel technology displaces higher cost diesel fuel with lower cost and cleaner burning natural gas, the recent decrease in oil/diesel pricing has impacted the timing of dealer restocking orders and the implementation schedules of existing and prospective customers in the near term due to the current tighter price spread between diesel and natural gas. Other possible adverse circumstances may include changes in economic conditions affecting markets for our products and services, potential delays in product development, product and service flaws which could result in material warranty claims, changes in technology and the availability of competitive products and services could also delay or limit demand for our products and services. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful, that all of our products will prove to meet the anticipated levels of approval or effectiveness, or that we will be able to obtain and sustain customers as well as distribution approval.

Other than the risk factors included above, there have not been any material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed under Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

During the three months ended December 31, 2014, we issued 10,870 shares of our Common Stock to an individual as a result of stock options that were exercised. The issuance of these shares is exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.

During the three months ended December 31,2014, we issued 200 shares of Series B 10% Convertible Preferred Stock and a warrant to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock to and investor for an aggregate investment of $2,000,000. The issuance of these securities is exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act.

During the three months ended December 31, 2014, we issued 387,636 shares of Common Stock to certain holders of our 10% Convertible Preferred Stock in lieu of payment of cash dividends. The issuance of these shares is exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.
