Supplemental disclosure of cash flow information and non cash investing and financing activities:

As a result of the transfer of ownership, effective April 2, 2007, the company effected a recapitalization, whereby the company issued   67,052,000 shares of common stock and 2,000 shares of preferred stock to founding members of the organization.   As the company determined that the shares had no value, stock and additional paid in capital were increased and decreased by the par value of the stock.

In February 2008, the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock, valued at $1 per share, as consideration for an intangible license.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2008, 2007 and
for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through March 31, 2008
 

 1.    Background Information
 
MagneGas Corporation (the “Company”), formerly 4307, Inc., was organized in the state of Delaware on December 9, 2005 for the purpose of locating and negotiating with a business entity for a combination.

On April 2, 2007 (the "Effective Date"), pursuant to the terms of a Stock Purchase Agreement, Clean Energies Tech Co. purchased a total of 100,000 shares (100%) of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company from Michael Raleigh, the sole officer, director and shareholder of the Company, for an aggregate of $30,000 in cash and the assumption of liabilities ($2,500). The total of 100,000 shares represented all of the shares of outstanding common stock of the Company at the time of transfer. 

Prior to the above transaction, Clean Energies Tech Co and the Company were essentially shell companies that were unrelated, with no assets, minimal liabilities, and no operations.  As a result, the 100% change in control was recorded as a private equity transaction, and no goodwill was recorded, as no assets were required and minimal liabilities were assumed.  On May 12, 2007, subsequent to the date of purchase, the company effected a recapitalization, whereby 67,052,000 shares of common stock were issued to founding members of the organization.   As the company determined that the shares had no value, stock and additional paid in capital were increased and decreased by the par value of the stock issued.

Since the acquisition, the Company has adopted the operating plan and mission which is to provide services in cleaning and converting contaminated waste. A process has been developed which transforms contaminated waste through a proprietary incandescent machine. The result of the product is to carbonize waste for normal disposal. A by product of this process will produce an alternative biogas source.  The technology related to this process has been licensed in perpetuity from a Company effectively controlled by the father of the current majority shareholder (see note 9).

2.    Development Stage Enterprise

The Company has been in the development stage since its formation on December 9, 2005.  It has primarily engaged in raising capital to carry out its business plan, as described in the Plan of Operations. The Company expects to continue to incur significant operating losses and to generate negative cash flow from operating activities while it develops its customer base and establishes itself in the marketplace.  The Company's ability to eliminate operating losses and to generate positive cash flow from operations in the future will depend upon a variety of factors, many of which it is unable to control.  If the Company is unable to implement its business plan successfully, it may not be able to eliminate operating losses, generate positive cash flow, or achieve or sustain profitability, which would materially adversely affect its business, operations, and financial results, as well as its ability to make payments on any obligations it may incur.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2008, 2007 and
for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through March 31, 2008
 
3.    Going Concern

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.

The Company incurred a net loss of $223,585 and $646,056 for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through the period ended March 31, 2008, respectively.  As of March 31, 2008 the Company had approximately $61,000 of cash with which to satisfy any future cash requirements. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company depends upon capital to be derived from future financing activities such as subsequent offerings of its common stock or debt financing in order to operate and grow the business.  There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising such capital.  The key factors that are not within the Company's control and that may have a direct bearing on operating results include, but are not limited to, acceptance of the Company's business plan, the ability to raise capital in the future, the ability to expand its customer base, and the ability to hire key employees to build and manufacture such proprietary machines to provide services.  There may be other risks and circumstances that management may be unable to predict.

The unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
 
4.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
The significant accounting policies followed are:
 
In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of (a) the result of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2008, 2007 and the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through March 31, 2008; (b) the financial position at March 31, 2008, and (c) cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 2008, 2007 and the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through March 31, 2008, have been made.
  
The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. These principals require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management believes that these estimates are reasonable and have been discussed with the Board of Directors; however, actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
The financial statement and notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. The accompanying unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 and notes thereto in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-KSB/A for the year ended December 31, 2007, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 10, 2008. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 and for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) to March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.

4.            Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The majority of cash is maintained with a major financial institution in the United States.  Deposits with this bank may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.  Generally, these deposits may be redeemed on demand and, therefore, bear minimal risk.  The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts receivable consist of delivery of biogas sales to customers.   Revenue for metal-cutting fuel is recognized when shipments are made to customers.  An allowance for doubtful accounts is considered to be established for any amounts that may not be recoverable, which is based on an analysis of the Company’s customer credit worthiness, and current economic trends.  Based on management’s review of accounts receivable, no allowance for doubtful accounts was considered necessary.   Receivables are determined to be past due, based on payment terms of original invoices.  The Company does not typically charge interest on past due receivables.

Equipment is stated at cost.  Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over estimated useful lives (five years for equipment).   The carrying amount of all long-lived assets is evaluated periodically to determine if adjustment to the depreciation and amortization period or the unamortized balance is warranted. Based upon its most recent analysis, the Company believes that no impairment of equipment exists at December 31, 2007.

During 2008, the Company recorded an intangible license for $100,000 related to the Company's right to utilize certain intellectual property secured from a company effectively controlled by the father of the current majority shareholder (see Note 9).  The Company valued the license based on the value of the stock issued, as the Company believes that this is the more reliable measurement.  The intellectual property consists primarily of patents and patent applications, which the Company has estimated has a useful life of ten years.  The estimated amortization expense for the intangible license is expected to be $10,000 annually over the next five years and $50,000 in total thereafter.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, "Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," long-lived assets such as property, equipment and identifiable intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.  When required impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the asset.  The fair value is determined based on estimates of future cash flows, market value of similar assets, if available, or independent appraisals, if required.  If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the carrying amount and fair value of the asset.  When fair values are not available, the Company estimates fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk associated with the recovery of the assets.  We did not recognize any impairment losses for any periods presented.
 
In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123R). SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options to be recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company had no common stock options or common stock equivalents granted or outstanding for all periods presented

4.            Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The Company issues restricted stock to consultants for various services.  For these transactions the Company follows the guidance in EITF 96-18 "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services".  Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable (see Note 8).  The value of the common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty's performance is complete.   For the three  month periods ended March 31, 2008, 2007 and for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through March 31, 2008, the Company recognized $145,000, $0, and $475,100 in consulting expenses and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital related to stock issued for services.  No stock was issued for the three month period ended March 31, 2007.  Accordingly, no expense was recognized for this period.  All stock issued during 2007 to consultants was for past services provided, accordingly, all shares issued are fully vested, and there is no unrecognized compensation associated with these transactions as of March 31, 2008.

The costs of advertising are expensed as incurred.  Advertising expense was $2,034, $0, and $2,466 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, 2007 and for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through March 31, 2008, respectively.

The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires use of the liability method. SFAS No. 109 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purpose, referred to as temporary differences. Deferred tax assets and liabilities at the end of each period are determined using the currently enacted tax rates applied to taxable income in the periods in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be settled or realized.

The Company follows SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share.” Basic earnings (loss) per share calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share calculations are determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares. There are no share equivalents and, thus, anti-dilution issues are not applicable.
 
5.            Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
  
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. Under the standard, fair value measurements would be separately disclosed by level within the fair hierarchy. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of its operations.

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of its operations.

5.     Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which is an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. In addition, FIN 48 clearly scopes out income taxes from Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company adopted FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. There was no material impact on the overall results of operations, cash flows, or financial position from the adoption of FIN 48.

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.  SFAS No. 161 requires additional disclosures related to the use of derivative instruments, the accounting for derivatives and the financial statement impact of derivatives.  SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.  The adoption of SFAS No. 161 will not impact the Company's financial statements.

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141(revised 2007), Business Combinations, which replaces SFAS No. 141.  The statement retains the purchase method of accounting for acquisitions, but requires a number of changes, including changes in the way assets and liabilities are recognized in the purchase accounting.  It also changes the recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from contingencies, requires the capitalization of in-process research and development at fair value, and requires the expensing of acquisition-related costs as incurred.  SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2009 and will apply prospectively to business combinations completed on or after that date.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160; Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements, and amendment of ARB 51, which changes the accounting and reporting for minority interest.  Minority interest will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interest and will be reported as component of equity separate from the parent's equity, and purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in change in control will be accounted for as equity transactions.  In addition, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the dace of the income statement and, upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest retained, will be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings.  SFAS No. 160 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2009 and will apply prospectively, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which will apply retrospectively.

7.            Income Tax

The Company has not recognized an income tax benefit for its operating start-up losses generated since inception based on uncertainties concerning its ability to generate taxable income in future periods.  The tax benefit for the periods presented is offset by a valuation allowance established against deferred tax assets arising from operating losses and other temporary differences, the realization of which could not be considered more likely than not.  In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets will be recognized when management considers realization of such amounts to be more likely than not.  As of December 31, 2007, the Company incurred start-up losses of approximately $90,600.   These losses are capitalized as start-up costs for tax purposes, to be amortized when the Company commences business operations.
 
8            Equity

The company has two classifications of stock:
 
Preferred Stock includes 10,000,000 shares authorized at a par value of $0.001, of which 2,000 are issued or outstanding at March 31, 2008.   Preferred Stock has been issued as Series A Preferred Stock.  Preferred Stock has liquidation and dividend rights over Common Stock, which is not in excess of its par value.  The preferred stock has no conversion rights or mandatory redemption features.  Each share of Preferred Stock is entitled to 100,000 votes.
 
Common Stock includes 100,000,000 shares authorized at a par value of $0.001, of which 67,884,500 are issued and outstanding at March 31, 2008.  The holders of Common Stock and the equivalent Preferred Stock, voting together, shall appoint the members of the Board of the Directors.  Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote.
 
Founding contributors were issued 67,052,000 shares during 2007.   As management determined that the Company had negligible value, no value was attributed to the founders’ shares.   

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, the company issued 145,000 common shares to various consultants.  The Company also issued 100,000 common shares to secure intellectual property rights, as discussed in footnote 9.  During 2007 the Company had issued 330,000 shares to consultants for services rendered. The Company valued all the above shares at one dollar per share based on other third-party cash sales of the Company's common stock.

During the period June 2007 through October 2007, the Company issued 157,500 shares of common stock at one dollar per share, via a private placement offering, for a total of $157,500.

9.    Related Party Transactions
 
In April 2007, the Company reached a tentative agreement with a company, effectively controlled by the father of the current majority shareholder, which will secure intellectual property licensing for North, South, Central America and all Caribbean Islands ("the Territories"), effective upon funding.  This intellectual property consists of all relevant patents, patent applications, trademarks and domain names.  The agreement became effective upon the Company's issuance of 100,000 shares of common stock in February 2008. The term of the license agreement is in perpetuity for the above territories with the exception of (i) bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company (ii) the filing of the Company of a petition for bankruptcy (iii) the making by the Company of the assignment of the license for the benefit of creditors (iv) the appointment of a receiver of the Company or any of its assets which appointment shall not be vacated within 60 days thereafter (v) the filing of any other petition for the relief from creditors based upon the alleged bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company which shall not be dismissed within 60 days thereafter. Additionally, the agreement triggered a 5 year consulting agreement, with the inventor and owner of the intellectual property.  The terms of the consulting agreement will be determined during 2008.   The company will have the right to exercise a purchase option to acquire the intellectual property, within 5 years of the funding, at a defined purchase price of $30,000,000, which was determined by an internal valuation by the Company.

In 2007 an advance in the amount of $10,000 was made by a company owned by a shareholder, for initial deposit for services.  There are no repayment terms to this advance and the amount is payable upon demand.

In January 2008, the Company received approximately $30,000 in exchange for a promissory note to a shareholder.   The promissory note has no repayment date; however it is payable within 30 days of written demand.  Payment is to include accrued simple interest at 4%.

The Company has had limited need for use of office space or equipment.  Any use of office space or equipment supplied by related parties has, thus far, been immaterial.

The amounts and terms of the above transactions may not necessarily be indicative of the amounts and terms that would have been incurred had comparable transactions been entered into with independent third parties.
 
10.    Contingencies
 
From time to time the Company may be a party to litigation matters involving claims against the Company.  Management believes that there are no current matters that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

11.    Subsequent Events

Commencing April 2008 the Company has re-located to a new facility.  The Company has entered into a month-to-month lease, at a monthly rate of $2,500 per month for facilities to occupy approximately 3,000 square feet of a 6,000 square foot building.   The facility allows for expansion needs.  The lease is held by a Company that is effectively controlled by the father of the current majority shareholder.

Plan of Operations

During the next twelve months, we expect to take the following steps in connection with the further development of our business and the implementation of our plan of operations: 
 
Overall Plan

Our overall plan of operation for the next twelve months is to install three Plasma Arc Flow demonstration centers.  One will be installed in a municipal sewage treatment facility to process sludge, one will be installed in a dairy or hog farm to process manure and one will be built and used as a mobile refinery for the metal cutting market. These demonstration centers will be used to promote our core business strategy.  In addition, during the next twelve months, we intend to pursue equity financing using our shares of common stock and to pursue several state grants for these types of projects.
   
Second Quarter 2008

We will continue our efforts in selling MagneGas in the metal cutting market.  We will use established relationships with existing metal cutting fuel wholesalers to distribute MagneGas for this market.  We will continue construction of our mobile refinery for the metal cutting market. We have filed our S-1/A registration statement.
 
 

 
Third Quarter 2008
 
We will begin construction of a PlasmaArcFlow demonstration center to process sludge at a local municipality.  We will continue to aggressively pursue MagneGas sales for the metal cutting market through wholesalers, trade events and from our marketing and sales consultants. We intend to actively recruit new board members with appropriate experience and hire a corporate staff.
 
 Fourth Quarter 2008

We will install our Plasma Arc Flow demonstration center at a local Florida sewage treatment facility to process human sludge. We will also begin construction of a PlasmaArcFlow refinery that will be placed at a local megafarm to process manure. We will continue to pursue additional equity financing through our public offering.  We will aggressively pursue MagneGas sales for the metal cutting market through a marketing plan that fully leverages our demonstration centers and we will hire additional operational staff and manufacturing staff in anticipation of new sales and will expand our current facility to accommodate our space needs.

First Quarter 2009

By the first quarter of 2009, we will be fully operational at a local Florida sewage treatment facility, processing city sludge and creating biogas.  We will complete construction of our PlasmaArcFlow refinery that will be placed on a local farm to process manure and will we will continue sales of MagneGas in the metal cutting market.  We will aggressively pursue our marketing and sales plan to fully leverage our demonstration centers.  We expect to obtain several service contracts during this quarter as potential customers view first hand the operation of our equipment at an industrial level. We will continue to hire operational staff and manufacturing staff in anticipation of new sales.

         The foregoing represents our best estimate of our current planning, and is based on a reasonable assessment of funds we expect to become available.  However, our plans may vary significantly depending upon the amount of funds raised and status of our business plan. In the event we are not successful in reaching our initial revenue targets, additional funds will be required and we would then not be able to proceed with our business plan as anticipated. Should this occur, we would likely seek additional financing to support the continued operation of our business.

The Company is currently financing its operations primarily through cash generated by the sale of stock through a private offering.  We believe we can not currently satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months with our current cash and expected revenues from our private placement and sales.  However, management plans to increase revenue and obtain additional financing in order to sustain operations for at least the next twelve months. We have already sold shares to support our continued operations. However, completion of our plan of operation is subject to attaining adequate revenue. We cannot assure investors that adequate revenues will be generated. In the absence of our projected revenues, we may be unable to proceed with our plan of operations. Even without significant revenues within the next twelve months, we still anticipate being able to continue with our present activities, but we will require financing to potentially achieve our goal of profit, revenue and growth.

In the event we are not successful in reaching our initial revenue targets, additional funds will be required, and we would then not be able to proceed with our business plan for the development and marketing of our core services. Should this occur, we would likely seek additional financing to support the continued operation of our business. We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we would incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. We base this expectation, in part, on the fact that we may not be able to generate enough gross profit from our services to cover our operating expenses. Consequently, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue to operate as a going concern.
 
As reflected in the unaudited financial statements, we are in the development stage, and have an accumulated deficit from inception of $646,056 and have a negative cash flow from operations of $133,705 from inception. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company's ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

At March 31, 2008 the Company had approximately $61,000 of capital resources to meet current obligations.  The Company may rely upon the issuance of common stock and additional capital contributions from shareholders to fund administrative expenses until operations commence.

            Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. We anticipate that we will require approximately $4,000,000 to fund our plan of operations.
 
 


 
In effort to achieve revenue plans, subsequent to March 31, 2008, we have sold MagneGas as a metal cutting biogas. We have received firm orders from four entities for the biogas produced from waste.  We have additional non-binding letters of intent to process liquid waste based on proposals and our demonstrations.  The non-binding letters of intent include a defined time and place with resulting revenue earning structure.  To fund this sale, the firm orders, and existing non-binding letters of intent, the Company has raised $157,500 in cash proceeds via sales of common stock during 2007, and raised an additional $30,000 in cash proceeds from a shareholder loan in January 2008.  Additionally, to deliver on these orders we have the commitment of three persons dedicated to the fulfillment of orders and it is headed by a well known industry consultant, whom we have attained to help develop operating guidelines as well as being instrumental in the marketing and development of our brand offering.

To expand understanding of our efforts and progress in generating revenue:

Metal Cutting Biogas:  Sales commenced on March 6, 2008.  From that date we have sold 27 bottles of metal cutting biogas for approximately $900.  Marketing efforts are being concentrated on industry wholesalers to utilize their established customer base and distribution channels.  Our current operations in new facilities (entered into temporary month to month agreement, which will be formalized into a long-term agreement) have been set up for expansion.  We estimate current operations have capacity for 400-500 bottles to be processed per week.  Our new facilities allow us the flexibility to ramp up for greater volume, as market interest is anticipated to increase.

Letter of Intent: A non-binding letter of intent was agreed, in principal with a local municipality's water treatment facility.   The agreement calls for a 12 month testing period to process 1/3 of the City's bio-solids waste flow.  Our existing prototype equipment is being modified for the specifics required for this project.   Revenue will be generated at the defined price of $.0171 per gallon processed, as determined by the City's flow meters.  At this time we are unable to accurately estimate the volume that will be processed.   Upon completion of the 12 month test the contract will be evaluated and subject to renegotiation. No date has been determined when this project is to commence.
 
Results of Operations

For the three months ended March 31, 2008, 2007 and for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through March31, 2008.

Revenues

For the three months ended March 31, 2008, 2007 and for period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through March 31, 2008 we generated revenues of $782, $0, and $782, respectively from our metal cutting fuel sales operations.   This was the fulfillment of our initial order.  We are currently setting up our new facilities to fulfill future anticipated orders.  Additionally, we also received $30,000 of funding through a promissory note from a related party.   
  
General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative costs were incurred, primarily for professional expenses, in the amount of $223,642, $750 and $646,113 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, 2007 and for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through March 31, 2008, respectively.   The increase for the three month periods was due to an overall increase of professional expenses, primarily the recognition of stock compensation in the amount of $145,000 included in the first quarter of 2008.

Net Loss

Primarily due to the general and administrative costs that were incurred resulted in the net loss in the amount of $223,585, $750 and $646,056 for the three months ended March 31, 2008, 2007 and for the period December 9, 2005 (date of inception) through March 31, 2008, respectively.  The increase in the year over year net loss was impacted by the recognition of $145,000 of stock compensation for professional services.  At this time, normal costs of   public filing will continue and it is not known when significant revenues will occur to off-set these expenses.
 
 


 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
The Company is currently financing its operations primarily through cash generated by the sale of stock through a private offering.  We believe we can not currently satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months with our current cash and expected revenues from our private placement and sales.  However, management plans to increase revenue and obtain additional financing in order to sustain operations for at least the next twelve months. We have already sold shares to support our continued operations. However, completion of our plan of operation is subject to attaining adequate revenue. We cannot assure investors that adequate revenues will be generated. In the absence of our projected revenues, we may be unable to proceed with our plan of operations. Even without significant revenues within the next twelve months, we still anticipate being able to continue with our present activities, but we may require financing to potentially achieve our goal of profit, revenue and growth.

In the event we are not successful in reaching our initial revenue targets, additional funds may be required, and we would then not be able to proceed with our business plan for the development and marketing of our core services. Should this occur, we would likely seek additional financing to support the continued operation of our business. We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we would incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. We base this expectation, in part, on the fact that we may not be able to generate enough gross profit from our services to cover our operating expenses. Consequently, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue to operate as a going concern.
 
As reflected in the unaudited financial statements, we are in the development stage, and have an accumulated deficit from inception of $646,056 and have a negative cash flow from operations of $133,705 from inception. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company's ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The unaudited financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
 
At March 31, 2008 the Company had approximately $61,000 of capital resources to meet current obligations.  The Company may rely upon the issuance of common stock and additional capital contributions from shareholders to fund administrative expenses until operations commence.
 
Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern

Subsequent Events

Commencing April 2008 the Company has re-located to a new facility.  The Company has entered into a month-to-month lease, at a monthly rate of $2,500 for facilities to occupy approximately 3,000 square feet of a 6,000 square foot building.   The facility allows for expansion needs.  The lease is held by a Company that is effectively controlled by the father of the current majority shareholder.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 clarifies the principle that fair value should be based on the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability and establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to develop those assumptions. Under the standard, fair value measurements would be separately disclosed by level within the fair hierarchy. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of its operations.

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or results of its operations.

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which is an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. In addition, FIN 48 clearly scopes out income taxes from Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 5, Accounting for Contingencies. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company adopted FIN 48 on January 1, 2007. There was no material impact on the overall results of operations, cash flows, or financial position from the adoption of FIN 48.

 

 
In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.  SFAS No. 161 requires additional disclosures related to the use of derivative instruments, the accounting for derivatives and the financial statement impact of derivatives.  SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.  The adoption of SFAS No. 161 will not impact the Company's financial statements.

In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 141(revised 2007), Business Combinations, which replaces SFAS No. 141.  The statement retains the purchase method of accounting for acquisitions, but requires a number of changes, including changes in the way assets and liabilities are recognized in the purchase accounting.  It also changes the recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed arising from contingencies, requires the capitalization of in-process research and development at fair value, and requires the expensing of acquisition-related costs as incurred.  SFAS No. 141(R) is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2009 and will apply prospectively to business combinations completed on or after that date.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160; Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements, and amendment of ARB 51, which changes the accounting and reporting for minority interest.  Minority interest will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interest and will be reported as component of equity separate from the parent's equity, and purchases or sales of equity interests that do not result in change in control will be accounted for as equity transactions.  In addition, net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the dace of the income statement and, upon a loss of control, the interest sold, as well as any interest retained, will be recorded at fair value with any gain or loss recognized in earnings.  SFAS No. 160 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2009 and will apply prospectively, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which will apply retrospectively.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. These principals require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management believes that these estimates are reasonable and have been discussed with the Board of Directors; however, actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
The Company issues restricted stock to consultants for various services.  For these transactions the Company follows the guidance in EITF 96-18 "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services".  Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.  The value of the common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty's performance is complete.   All stock issued during 2007 and 2008 to consultants was for past services provided, accordingly, all shares issued are fully vested, and there is no unrecognized compensation associated with these transactions as of March 31, 2008.

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, "Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," long-lived assets such as property, equipment and identifiable intangibles are reviewed for impairment whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.  When required impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the asset.  The fair value is determined based on estimates of future cash flows, market value of similar assets, if available, or independent appraisals, if required.  If the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the carrying amount and fair value of the asset.  When fair values are not available, the Company estimates fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk associated with the recovery of the assets.  We did not recognize any impairment losses for any periods presented.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 
There have been no material changes in market risk since the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.
 
Item 4T.    Controls and Procedures
 
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of March 31, 2008. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of such periods are not effective 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 and forms and that our disclosure and controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure
  
The company is a reporting shell with limited resources. As a result, a material weakness in financial reporting currently exists.

A material weakness is a deficiency (within the meaning of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) auditing standard 5) or combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  Management has determined that a material weakness exists due to a lack of segregation of duties, resulting from the Company's limited resources.

The Company’s management, including the President (Principal Executive Officer), Director, and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Accounting and Financial Officer), confirm that there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
