DAYSTAR TECHNOLOGIES INC.
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE ENTERPRISE)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. Organization and Nature of Operations

     DayStar Technologies, Inc. (“DayStar” or the “Company”) is a development stage enterprise that was formed in 1997 for the purpose of developing, manufacturing and marketing innovative products to the solar photovoltaic (“PV”) industry. From its inception, the Company has focused primarily on thin film copper indium gallium di-selenide (“CIGS”) solar products. The Company has developed a proprietary one-step sputter deposition process and manufactured a commercial scale deposition tool to apply high efficiency CIGS material over large area glass substrates in a continuous fashion. This tool in one step completes the critical process of applying the CIGS material to the substrate and when integrated with commercially available thin film manufacturing equipment for the remaining steps, the Company believes it can provide a critically differentiated manufacturing process to produce low-cost monolithically integrated, CIGS-on-glass modules that address the grid-tied, ground-based PV market.

     Given the continuing challenges in the solar manufacturing sector from oversupply of modules and fierce price competition, the Company has significantly scaled back its development and manufacturing efforts and embarked on a strategy in which it is seeking strategic partnerships to advance its technology and enter new markets within the global renewal energy industry. These new lines of businesses (“LOBs”) may include companies involved in: 1) engineering, procurement, and construction (“EPC”) of solar modules 2) solar power generation (ie. solar farms) and 3) solar storage technologies. We consider this diversification strategy a prudent one as it avoids carrying the increasing business and financial risks in the solar manufacturing sector while we begin building a foundation of well-managed companies and attractive assets within these new LOBs.

     In March 2012, Sunlogics Power Fund Management, Inc., a subsidiary of Salamon Group Inc., made an initial loan of $500,000 to DayStar. Sunlogics Power Fund Management (“Sunlogics”) is a fund that invests in companies in the solar industry and is a project-acquiring partner of Sunlogics PLC and its subsidiary, as well as other third party project developers, specializing in the design, development and operation of solar energy solutions, including rooftop and ground mount solar power systems. Simultaneous with the initial loan, Sunlogics entered into a consulting arrangement with DayStar to assist the management of the Company with business development, securing equity or debt financing and also with exploring and evaluating strategic opportunities. DayStar and Sunlogics plan to identify and pursue opportunities that fit into the Company’s new strategy.

     Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted from these condensed unaudited financial statements. These condensed unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2011 has been derived from audited financial statements. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

     In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, have been made to present fairly the Company’s financial position at September 30, 2012 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and for the period from July 1, 2005 (Inception of the Development Stage) to September 30, 2012.

     Reverse Stock Split— On March 27, 2012, the Company’s shareholders approved a 1-for-7 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common shares with the total authorized shares of common stock remaining unchanged at 120,000,000. Trading of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market on a split-adjusted basis began at the open of trading on April 9, 2012. The reverse stock split affected all shares of the Company’s common stock, as well as options to purchase the Company’s common stock and other equity incentive awards, as well as convertible debt instruments and warrants that were outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the reverse stock split. All references to common shares and per-share data for prior periods have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split as if it had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented.

2. Liquidity and Future Operations

     The Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the nine months ended September 30, 2012 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company is in the development stage, and as such, has historically reported net losses, including a net loss of $3,783,496, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The Company anticipates it will continue to incur losses as it seeks strategic partnerships and investments. As noted herein, as a result of the Company’s current liquidity, there is substantial doubt as to its ability to continue as a going concern.

8


     In order to continue operations and pursue strategic partnerships, the Company requires immediate and substantial additional capital beyond its current cash on hand.

     In order to address its current financial requirements on February 2, 2011, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Socius CG II, Ltd. (the “Investor” or “Socius”). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company has the right over a term of two years, subject to certain conditions, to demand through separate tranche notices that the Investor purchase up to a total of $5.0 million of Series B preferred stock.

     The Company is pursuing long-term strategic partnerships and investments in companies that conduct engineering, procurement and construction (“EPC”) within the solar industry. This shift in strategy Those potential partnerships, if consummated, could include joint ventures, licensing agreements, contract manufacturing agreements, a merger with or an acquisition of DayStar. Although the Company continues to seek strategic investors or partners, in light of its current cash position, the Company may in the near term be forced to cease operations. The Company has implemented cost savings measures to limit its cash outflows while pursuing strategic investments and partnerships.

     An inability to raise additional funding in the very near term may cause the Company to file a voluntary petition for reorganization under the United States Bankruptcy Code, liquidate assets, and/or pursue other such actions that could adversely affect future operations. Given current market conditions and available opportunities, there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to complete a financing in the time frame required to remain in operation. A wide variety of factors relating to the Company and external conditions could adversely affect its ability to secure additional funding and the terms of any funding that it secures.

3. Significant Accounting Policies

     Cash Equivalents —The Company considers all highly liquid debt securities purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are maintained with major financial institutions within the United States and at times the balances with these institutions exceed the amount of federal insurance coverage on such deposits.

     Property and Equipment —Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using straight-line and an accelerated method over estimated useful lives of 3 to 10 years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not materially extend the useful lives of property and equipment, are charged to operations as incurred. When property or equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the property accounts are relieved of costs and accumulated depreciation and any resulting gain or loss is recognized.

     Cost-Basis Method Valuation —The Company’s non-marketable equity investment is recorded using the cost-basis method of accounting, and is classified within other long-term assets on the accompanying balance sheet as permitted by FASB ASC 325, “Cost Method Investments”, as the Company owns less than 20% of the voting securities and does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of the entity. See Note 5 Investment in Non-consolidated Affiliate for more information.

     Revenue Recognition —The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the FASB ASC 605 Revenue Recognition and Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition” (“SAB 104”) which require that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (3) the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Since inception of the development stage on July 1, 2005, the Company has earned minimal amounts of product revenue.

     Since inception of the development stage on July 1, 2005, the principal source of revenue for the Company has been from government funded research and development contracts and grants. Grant revenue is recognized when the Company fulfills obligations as set forth under the grant. Terms of the grant reflected in the accompanying financial statements require the Company to maintain specified employment criteria over a five year period. If the Company fails to meet the specified criteria, it must repay the unearned portion of the grant. As a result, the Company reported a liability of $520,000 at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

     Research and development contract revenue is recognized as the Company meets milestones as set forth under the contract. The Company recognized no revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

     Research and Development Costs —Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Funds obtained from government agencies that represent a cost reimbursement activity are reflected as reductions of Research and Development expenses.

     Use of Estimates —The preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates include the useful lives of the Company’s property and equipment, the life and realization of the Company’s capitalized costs associated with its patents and the Company’s valuation allowance associated with its deferred tax asset, share-based compensation and impairment of investment in non-consolidated affiliate. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

9


     Share-Based Compensation —The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 718 Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards to employees and directors based on estimated fair values. Additionally, the Company follows the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 “Share-Based Payment” (“SAB 107”), as amended by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110 (“SAB 110”), which provides supplemental application guidance based on the views of the SEC. The Company estimates the expected term, which represents the period of time from the grant date that the Company expects its stock options to remain outstanding, using the simplified method as permitted by SAB 107 and SAB 110. Under this method, the expected term is estimated as the mid-point between the time the options vest and their contractual terms. The Company continues to apply the simplified method because it does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the expected terms due to the limited period of time its equity shares have been publicly traded and the limited number of its options which have so far vested and become eligible for exercise.

     Share-based compensation expense for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011were as follows:

    For the Three Months     For the Nine Months  
    Ended September 30,     Ended September 30,  
    2012     2011     2012     2011  
Share-based compensation:                        
             Selling, general and administrative $  228,359   $  56,360   $  303,979   $  822,467  
             Research and development       23,332     63,459     367,593  
                                 Total share-based compensation $  228,359   $  79,692   $  367,438   $  1,190,060  

     The Company granted restricted stock awards to various directors and employees as part of its incentive plan. These restricted stock awards vest immediately or equally over 12 months from the grant date.

     During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company granted 878,571 restricted stock awards of which 171,431 shares have vested as of September 30, 2012. There were no restricted stock units or options to purchase common stock granted, and no restricted stock awards, restricted stock units or options to purchase common stock were forfeited during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

     Reclassifications —Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2011 financial statements to conform to the 2012 presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on net loss.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—

     In April 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS . This ASU amends current fair value measurement and disclosure guidance to include increased transparency around valuation input and investment categorization. ASU 2011-04 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption not permitted. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 in the first quarter of 2012 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

     In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income . ASU 2011-05 allows an entity to present components of net income and other comprehensive income in one continuous statement, referred to as the statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate, but consecutive statements. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity. While the new guidance changes the presentation of comprehensive income, there are no changes to the components that are recognized in net income or other comprehensive income under current accounting guidance. ASU 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and must be applied retrospectively. The Company did not have any other comprehensive income during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and the adoption of ASU 2011-05 in the first quarter of 2012 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

     In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210), Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities , which requires companies to disclose information about financial instruments that have been offset and related arrangements to enable users of their financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on their financial position. Companies will be required to provide both net (offset amounts) and gross information in the notes to the financial statements for relevant assets and liabilities that are offset. ASU 2011-11 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company is evaluating the effect the adoption of ASU 2011-11 in the first quarter of 2013 may have on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

4. Other Receivable

     In September 2012, Sunlogics assisted DayStar in securing proceeds totalling $438,840 with various private investors through a securities subscription agreement – see Note 6. Of the total proceeds, $226,937 is owed and outstanding from Sunlogics.

5. Investment in Non-Consolidated Affiliate

     Investment in non-consolidated affiliate consists of an equity investment in Eco Energy Solutions (Australia) Pty. Ltd. ("Eco"). This initial investment is part of the Company’s new strategy in entering the EPC business with the solar industry. On May 31, 2012 the Company entered into a purchase agreement to acquire a 10% interest in Eco for 285,714 shares of its common stock that had a closing market stock price of $1.03. The total value of Eco is carried under the cost method of accounting at $294,285.

     This investment has been accounted for as a cost-basis investment as the Company owns less than 20% of the voting securities and does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of the entity. The Company’s investment is in an entity that is not publicly traded and, therefore, no established market for the securities exists. The fair value of a cost-method investment is not estimated if there is no identified event or change in circumstances that would have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment. The Company’s cost-method investment is carried at historical cost in its financial statements and measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. If the Company believes that the carrying value of the cost basis investment is in excess of estimated fair value, the Company’s policy is to record an impairment charge in “Other income (expense)” in the accompanying statements of operations. The Company regularly evaluates the carrying value of this cost-method investment for impairment. As of September 30, 2012, the Company believes that no event had occurred that would adversely affect the carrying value of this investment, and accordingly, the Company did not record any impairment charges relating to this investment during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012.

6. Notes Payable and Warrants

     Between September 2009 and December 2011, the Company entered into a series of agreements with various lenders (the “Lenders”) to provide bridge financing to the Company in exchange for notes and warrants. With the exception of the traditional loans indicated in the table below, these notes (the “Notes”) are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, and each contain terms of nine months, are secured by all assets of the Company, and accrue interest at rates of between 8 – 10% per annum. The Lenders may, at their option at any time prior to payment in full of the Notes, elect to convert all or any part of the entire outstanding principal amount of the Notes plus the accrued interest on the then outstanding balance into shares of the Company’s common stock at the conversion price specified in each of the Notes (subject to adjustment in the event of any stock splits, stock dividends or other recapitalization of common stock subsequent to the date of such sale or issuance). If between the date of the Notes and such conversion, the Company issues or sells any shares of capital stock, other than certain excluded securities (a “Future Issuance”), at a per share price below the original conversion price specified in the Notes, then the conversion price of the Notes will be reduced to the price of such Future Issuance.

     On January 25, 2012, the Company and Michael Moretti entered into a securities purchase agreement. Pursuant to the securities purchase agreement, Mr. Moretti agreed to loan the Company $225,000 (including $125,000 advanced prior to December 31, 2011) and the Company issued Mr. Moretti (a) a secured convertible promissory note and (b) a warrant to purchase 192,858 shares of the Company’s common stock (subject to adjustment for certain corporate transactions). The note carries an interest rate of 10% per annum and is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock based on a $1.75 conversion price (subject to adjustment for certain corporate transactions), contains a term of two years and is secured by all the assets of the Company. The warrant is immediately exercisable, expires on January 24, 2014, and has an exercise price of $2.80 per share if exercised prior to July 25, 2012, $3.15 if exercised during the period July 25, 2012 through January 24, 2013, and $3.50 if exercised after January 24, 2013 and through the expiration of the warrant. Additionally, the securities purchase agreement contains a provision that if and only if, the Company consummates a fundamental transaction that results in a change in control, the Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to cause the Company or other parties to the fundamental transaction to issue securities (be it common stock, other securities of the Company, or securities of another party to the fundamental transaction) equal to the original principal amount of the note divided by $1.75.

     On March 14, 2012, the Company and Sunlogics entered into a securities purchase agreement. Pursuant to the purchase agreement, Sunlogics agreed to loan the Company $500,000. On March 14, 2012, and March 16, 2012, the Company issued Sunlogics two senior convertible promissory notes, representing the Company’s Senior Debt, in the principal amounts of $400,000 and $100,000, respectively. The notes carry an interest rate of 6% per annum, a term of one year, and each note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to the consolidated closing bid price of the Company’s common stock on the last business day prior to the issuance of the note (subject to adjustment for certain corporate transactions). As of September 20, 2012, the company converted these notes and issued 305,023 shares of common stock.

     In September 2012, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements with various investors referred by Sunlogics and raised proceeds of $438,840. Pursuant to the securities purchase agreement, the Company is required to issue common shares by January 31, 2013 for value of proceeds and accrued interest of 6% per annum. If the Company does not issue common shares by January 31, 2013, the proceeds and accrued interest will be repayable on demand by the investors. On January 31, 2013 the proceeds plus accrued interest will be converted to common shares based on a $1.20 per share ratio. In addition, warrants with an exercise price of $2.00 per common share will be issued for each common share on that date. The proceeds were received by Sunlogics and $111,398 was used to compensate Sunlogics for various consulting services provided to the Company, and $100,505 was received as of September 30, 2012. As of September 30, 2012, Sunlogics owes $226,937 to the Company.

     As of September 30, 2012, the aggregate principal balance of all outstanding Notes was $5,640,753 and the Notes were convertible into 3,156,524 shares of common stock.

11


     The conversion features on the notes issued prior to 2012 were determined to be embedded derivative liabilities and therefore were bifurcated from the notes and recorded as a discount to the notes at their fair value at issuance and are required to be adjusted to fair value at the end of each reporting period. The change in fair value of the conversion features, calculated using the Black Scholes model, is recorded as a gain or loss on derivative liabilities. The conversion feature fair values at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were $0 and $33,541, respectively. The change in fair value of the conversion features during the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 resulted in a gain on derivative liabilities of $0 and $245,898, respectively. The change in fair value of the conversion features during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 resulted in a gain on derivative liabilities of $33,541 and $3,865,916, respectively.

     The conversion features on the notes issued in 2012 were determined to be beneficial conversion features and were recorded as additional paid-in capital and as a discount to the notes at their fair value at issuance of $455,011, calculated using the Black Scholes model. The proceeds remaining, if any, after allocation to the conversion features are allocated on a relative fair value basis between the Notes and the warrants and the amounts allocated to the warrants, calculated using the Black Scholes model, are recorded as additional note discount. The discount attributable to the issuance date aggregate fair value of the conversion features and warrants is being amortized using the effective interest method over the terms of the Notes. During the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, $28,265 and $122,653, respectively, of this discount was amortized to expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, $316,411 and $934,715, respectively, of this discount was amortized to expense.

     The warrants issued in connection with these Notes are exercisable upon issuance (with the exception of the warrants issued to Dynamic Worldwide Solar Energy, LLC) and entitle the Lenders to purchase up to 1,136,530 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $2.80 – $11.90 per share, as adjusted for standard anti-dilution provisions and are exercisable for a period of 2 – 7 years from their respective issuance dates.

7. Derivative Liabilities

     As described in Note 6 Notes Payable and Warrants, the Company is accounting for the conversion features in certain of its convertible notes as embedded derivative liabilities. The Company currently does not use hedging contracts to manage the risk of its overall exposure to interest rate and foreign currency changes. The conversion features are not considered hedging instruments.

     The conversion feature liability on the balance sheet at September 30, 2012 and 2011, and the change in the liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 is summarized as follows:

    Conversion  
    Feature  
    Liability  
Balance, December 31, 2010 $  3,854,272  
New debt issuances   41,794  
Change in fair value   (3,896,066 )
Balance, September 30, 2011 $  —  
Balance, December 31, 2011 $  33,541  
Change in fair value   (33,541 )
Balance, September 30, 2012 $  —  

     In accordance with ASC 820, the following table represents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for its financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. There were no financial assets subject to the provisions of ASC 820 as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

8. Subsequent Events

      On October 16, 2012, the Company acquired solar project assets in Hawaii from Avatar Solar Inc., an energy service provider based in California. The purchase price of $850,000 will be paid in cash and equity that prices the Company’s common shares at $2.00 per share.

     On November 16, 2012, the Company’s CFO resigned and was immediately replaced by a new CFO. The new CFO received an inducement in restricted stock units of 136,000 shares in the Company that vest equally over 12 months from the grant date.

     On November 20, 2012, the Company terminated its debt swap agreement dated July 10, 2012 that contemplated the purchase by the Company from Michael Matvieshen, Chief Executive Officer of Salamon Group Inc., a convertible debt of $15 million issued by Salamon Group Inc. in exchange for debt of $15 million issued by the Company.

     On November 28, 2012, the Company’s Chairman and Interim Chief Executive Officer exercised the conversion of his notes payable and accrued interest totalling $3.9 million for 3.2 million common shares of the Company.

     In November 2012, the Company issued 185,717 common shares for vested portion of share inducements offered to various key management employees of the Company.

     In December 2012, the Company issued 1,034,001 of restricted common shares to various employees as inducements; 239,000 common shares to various consultants for consulting work performed for the Company; and 303,100 common shares issued to various individuals and companies as part of an assignment of shares from Michael Matvieshen, who received 305,023 common shares for converting his notes in March 2012.

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

     The following discussion and analysis provides information that we believe is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operation and financial condition. You should read this analysis in conjunction with our audited financial statements and related footnotes. This discussion and analysis contains statements of a forward-looking nature relating to future events or our future financial performance. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, including those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 30, 2012 as well as Part II, Item 1A below.

Overview

     We are a development stage enterprise that was formed in 1997 for the purpose of developing, manufacturing and marketing innovative products to the solar photovoltaic (“PV”) industry. From our inception, we have focused primarily on thin film copper indium gallium di-selenide (“CIGS”) solar products. We have developed a proprietary one-step sputter deposition process and manufactured a commercial scale deposition tool to apply high efficiency CIGS material over large area glass substrates in a continuous fashion. This tool in one step completes the critical process of applying the CIGS material to the substrate and when integrated with commercially available thin film manufacturing equipment for the remaining steps, we believe it can provide a critically differentiated manufacturing process to produce low-cost monolithically integrated, CIGS-on-glass modules that address the grid-tied, ground-based PV market.

     Given the changes in the economy and in the industry in recent years, we have significantly scaled back our development and manufacturing efforts and embarked on a strategy in which we are seeking strategic partnerships to advance our technology and enter new markets within the global renewal energy industry. The Company is expected to announce strategic partnerships in the near term to own and construct solar and renewable power plants.

     In August 2012, the Company has filed an S-3 Registration Statement registering two shareholders, Mr. Peter Lacey and Mr. Michael Moretti, who are converting debt for shares from the convertible debt that is on the books as of September 30, 2012. In addition, there are two shareholders who are owed money for work performed while employed by the Company. The Company finalized an Employment and Separation Release of Robert Weiss and Christopher Lail for shares of Company stock as full payment for the monies owed them while employed which total $1,000,000. The Company also recruited new officers, David Li, Joseph Hunsberger, Mark Rosenbrough and Dan Giesbrecht as part of the new management team. The Board decided to increase its number of members from 5 to 9.

In September 2012, a director, William Steckel, resigned from the Board of Directors.

     In October 2012, the Company acquired project assets which consisted of Power Purchase Agreements from Avatar Solar Inc., A renewable energy developer based in California, for $850,000 in a cash and equity deal which prices the Company’s common equity at $2.00 per share.

     In October 2012, the Company cancelled its proposed tender offer for 50.1% of Salamon Group Inc. which the Company disclosed in August 2012.

In October 2012, the Company accepted resignations from three directors John Fitzgerald, Kang Sun and Terrence Betham.

     In October 2012, the Company received a commitment from Radiant Offshore Fund Ltd and Radiant Performance Fund L.P. (the “Radiant Group”) to provide $1 million secured convertible note paying 9% secured against certain power purchase contracts signed by the Company. In addition, the agreement contemplated that the Company will acquire the debt owed to Radiant Group in exchange for a class of the Company’s non-trading preferred shares. The parties have since determined that the deal was not mutually beneficial and have terminated the agreement in December 2012.

     In November 2012, the Company reduced its debts by $3.9 million as the Company’s CEO, Peter Lacey, has elected to convert his notes payables into 3.2 million DayStar shares. This is part of the Company’s plan to improve its working capital position while it pursues new acquisitions. The Company terminated its debt swap agreement signed in July 2012 with Michael Matvieshen which contemplated the purchase ofthe purchase by the Company from Michael Matvieshen of a $15 million secured convertible debenture issued by Salamon in exchange for the issue by the Company to Michael Matvieshen.

     In November 2012, the Company’s CFO, Dale Hoover, resigned and was replaced by a new CFO, John Ng.

     In December 2012, the Company announced the addition of Bill Richardson to the Board of Directors. Mr. Richardson is a former Governor of New Mexico and Secretary of U.S. Department of Energy under the Clinton administration.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

     The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the related disclosures. A summary of those accounting policies can be found in the notes to our financial statements. Certain of our accounting policies are considered critical as they are both important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require judgments on the part of management about matters that are uncertain. We have identified the following accounting policies that are important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations.

     Property and Equipment. Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using straight-line and an accelerated method over estimated useful lives of three to ten years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs, which do not materially extend the useful lives of property and equipment, are charged to operations as incurred. When property or equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the property accounts are relieved of costs and accumulated depreciation and any resulting gain or loss is recognized.

     Share-Based Compensation. We follow the provisions of FASB ASC 718 Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards to employees and directors based on estimated fair values. Additionally, we follow the SEC’s SAB No. 107, “Share-Based Payment” (“SAB 107”), as amended by SAB No. 110, which provides supplemental application guidance based on the views of the SEC.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended September 30,2012 and 2011

     Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2011 financial information to conform to the 2012 presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on net loss.

     Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses were $355,863 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $207,173 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $148,690 or 72%. The increase was primarily related to the increase in share-based compensation and salary costs.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $718,464 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $336,748 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, an increase of $381,716 or 113%. The increase was mainly related to share-based compensation of $228,359, and consulting fees and travel expenses of $66,258 related to business development and financing activities provided by Sunlogics.

Restructuring. There were no restructuring expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011.

     Depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization expense was $265,304 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $355,772 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $90,648 or 25%. The decrease in depreciation reflects the reduction in certain depreciable equipment.

     Interest expense. Interest expense was $119,301 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $237,729 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $118,428 or 50%. The decrease was primarily due to the overall reduction in notes payable year-over-year.

     Amortization of note discount and financing costs. Amortization of note discount and financing costs was $28,265 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $122,653 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $94,388 or 77%. The convertible notes issued in connection with our debt financing contain conversion features as well as warrants which result in discounts to the principal amount of the notes payable reflected on our balance sheet, based on the fair value of the warrants and conversion features. The discounts on the convertible notes are amortized using the effective interest method over the terms of the notes. The decrease was due to certain convertible notes converted or fully amortized during the year compared to the prior year.

     Gain on derivative liabilities. There was no gain on derivative liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $30,150 for the three months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $30,150 or 100%. The conversion features on certain convertible notes issued in conjunction with our debt financing are considered derivative liabilities and are therefore required to be adjusted to fair value each quarter. A decrease in our stock price during the period results in a decrease in the liabilities and a gain on derivative liabilities. Conversely, an increase in our stock price during the period would result in an increase in the liabilities and a loss on derivative liabilities. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, our common stock price significantly decreased resulting in a significant gain on derivative liabilities for the quarter. The gain on derivative liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2012 reflects the change in fair value of the outstanding conversion feature liability on the notes issued prior to 2012.

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 and 2011

     Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2011 financial information to conform to the 2012 presentation. Such reclassifications had no impact on net loss.

18


     Research and development expenses. Research and development expenses were $726,075 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $1,046,944 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $320,869 or 31%. The decrease was primarily related to a reduction in share-based compensation and the decrease in certain personnel and facilities related costs which are in line with our decision to reduce further investment in our decision to scale back on our development and manufacturing efforts.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,589,613 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $2,028,292 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $438,679 or 22%. The decrease was primarily related to a reduction in share-based compensation as well as a decrease in certain personnel costs and professional fees.

     Restructuring. There were no restructuring expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Restructuring expenses were $850,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The restructuring expenses in 2011 resulted from impairment charges on certain equipment, as we cancelled orders for such equipment and settled the outstanding obligations with the vendors. The settlement amounts of $850,000 which were paid in shares of our common stock were recorded as restructuring expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

     Depreciation and amortization expense. Depreciation and amortization expense was $830,272 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $1,158,576 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $328,304 or 28%. The decrease in depreciation reflects the reduction in certain depreciable equipment.

     Interest expense. Interest expense was $354,666 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $583,298 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $228,632 or 39%. Interest expense relates primarily to the outstanding notes issued in connection with our bridge financing. The decrease was primarily due to the overall reduction in notes payable year-over-year.

     Amortization of note discount and financing costs. Amortization of note discount and financing costs was $316,411 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $934,715 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $618,304 or 66%. The convertible notes issued in connection with our debt financing contain conversion features as well as warrants which result in discounts to the principal amount of the notes payable reflected on our balance sheet, based on the fair value of the warrants and conversion features. The discounts on the convertible notes are amortized using the effective interest method over the terms of the notes. In the third quarter of 2010, we restructured all of our existing convertible notes which resulted in the recording of new notes and corresponding discounts. The expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 includes amortization of the discount on the original notes as well as a portion of the discount on the restructured notes. The expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 primarily reflects amortization of the discount on the notes issued in 2012. These factors resulted in a lower discount amortization in the first quarter of 2012 as compared with the same period in 2011.

     Gain on derivative liabilities. Gain on derivative liabilities was $33,541 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to $3,865,916 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011, a decrease of $3,832,375 or 99%. The conversion features on certain convertible notes issued in conjunction with our debt financing are considered derivative liabilities and are therefore required to be adjusted to fair value each quarter. A decrease in our stock price during the period results in a decrease in the liabilities and a gain on derivative liabilities. Conversely, an increase in our stock price during the period would result in an increase in the liabilities and a loss on derivative liabilities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, our common stock price significantly decreased resulting in a significant gain on derivative liabilities for the quarter. The gain on derivative liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 reflects the change in fair value of the outstanding conversion feature liability on the notes issued prior to 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     At September 30, 2012, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $32,569 compared to $4,199 at December 31, 2011.

     We are in the development stage, and as such, have historically reported net losses, including a net loss of $3,783,496 for the Nine months ended September 30, 2012. As we strive to diversify into EPC and other businesses within the solar industry in the near future, we anticipate incurring losses until we solidify certain acquisitions, at which time, we can aggregate profitable and cash generating businesses into our Company, hence, immediately becoming a fully operating company.

     Our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the nine months ended September 30, 2012 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As noted herein, as a result of our current liquidity, there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

19


     We have historically financed our operations primarily from the sale of equity securities and the issuance of notes and convertible notes, and will continue to do so in the near term to fund operations. We presently do not have any bank lines of credit that provide us with an additional source of debt financing. We intend on funding future acquisitions through the issuance of shares provided they present attractive value for shareholders and support our strategic plan.

     Beginning in September 2009, we have funded our operations through a series of debt financing transactions in which we have issued convertible and traditional notes with an aggregate principal amount of $8.2 million and also issued warrants exercisable for shares of our common stock. Currently, $5.8 million of these notes remains outstanding.

     Also, in order to help address our capital requirements, in February 2011, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Socius CG II, Ltd. (the “Investor” or “Socius”). Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, we have the right over a term of two years, subject to certain conditions, to demand through separate tranche notices that the Investor purchase up to a total of $5.0 million of Series B preferred stock. However, we will require additional capital beyond these funding sources in order to implement our business plans.

     We have implemented cost savings measures to limit our cash outflows and although we continue to seek strategic investors or partners, in light of our current cash position, we may in the near term be forced to cease operations. An inability to raise additional funding in the very near term may cause us to file a voluntary petition for reorganization under the United States Bankruptcy Code, liquidate assets, and/or pursue other such actions that could adversely affect future operations. A wide variety of factors relating to the Company including those described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part I Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as external conditions, could adversely affect our ability to secure additional funding necessary to continue operations and the terms of any funding that we secure.

     Commitments. At September 30, 2012, we had no outstanding purchase orders for equipment and improvements. Other commitments include rental payments under operating leases for office space and equipment, and commitments under employment contracts with our executive officers. These commitments are discussed further in the Commitments and Contingencies footnote to our financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

     Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. The only off-balance sheet obligations are for operating leases and certain other commitments entered into in the ordinary course of business.

     We lease 33,000 square feet of warehouse and office space in Union City, California under a lease which expires in December 2012. This facility is the location of our corporate headquarters as well as our development and proprietary deposition equipment.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

     Our exposure to market risk for a change in interest rates relates primarily to interest earned on our cash and cash equivalents balance. We maintain our portfolio in high credit quality cash deposits and money market funds that invest in Treasury instruments with carrying values that approximate market value. Due to the short duration of our investment portfolio, we do not expect that a 10% change in interest rates would have a material effect on the fair market value of our cash and cash equivalents.

     We also have market risk arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to expenses and/or equipment we purchase from foreign businesses. Our payments related to these purchases may be denominated in foreign currency. We believe that such exposure does not present a significant risk due to the limited number of transactions and/or accounts payable denominated in foreign currency. Consequently, we do not believe that a 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates would have a significant effect on our future net income or cash flows.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

     We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (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 such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and utilized, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating disclosure controls and procedures.

     As required by Rule 13a-15(b) or Rule 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of September 30, 2012.

Summary of Material Weaknesses

     A "material weakness" is defined under SEC rules as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company's internal controls. As a result of management's review of the investigation issues and results, and other internal reviews and evaluations that were completed after the end of quarter related to the preparation of management's report on internal controls over financial reporting required for this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, management concluded that we had material weaknesses in our control environment and financial reporting process consisting of the following:

  1)

We did not effectively maintain effective entity-level internal controls sufficient to address identified risks of material financial reporting errors.

  2)

We did not have a sufficient complement of personnel with appropriate training and experience in generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and with commission disclosure requirements.

  3)

We lacked procedures to ensure that personnel familiar with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and with Commission disclosure requirements can thoroughly evaluate activities and transactions in order to make all required disclosures in a timely manner.

     We do not believe the material weaknesses described above caused any meaningful or significant misreporting of our financial condition and results of operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. However, management believes that the material weaknesses identified could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.

Management’s Plan to Remediate Material Weaknesses

     Management is pursuing the implementation of corrective measures to address the material weaknesses described below. In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:

  • We have hired a new Controller to support the CFO so that adequate and experienced personnel is now available to assist in preparing financial statements and information for all 10-Q and 10-K filings
  • We plan on developing proper procedures and protocols for future employee terminations so that we do not place our filing obligations at risk
  • We are developing proper internal procedures and processes that ensure the CFO, CEO, the Board of Directors and legal counsel are involved in all major transactions and activities so that we can collectively evaluate the proper disclosures and legal compliance issues

     We believe the remediation measures described above will remediate the material weaknesses we have identified and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to diligently and vigorously review our financial reporting controls and procedures. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify, or in appropriate circumstances not to complete, certain of the remediation measures described above.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

     There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

     In the ordinary conduct of our business, we are subject to periodic lawsuits, investigations and claims, including routine employment matters. The following is a summary of the material legal proceedings to which we are a party at this time.

     On January 6, 2010, New York State Urban Development, d/b/a/ Empire State Development Corporation (“ESDC”), filed a breach of contract action against us. This action stems from the Grant Disbursement Award we entered into with ESDC when we relocated our headquarters to New York in 2004. ESDC has been awarded a judgment of approximately $520,000 and is currently in the process of enforcing its judgment to recover such damages.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

     Item 1A (“Risk Factors”) of our annual report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 (“Annual Report”) sets forth information relating to important risks and uncertainties that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results. The risks and uncertainties described in our Annual Report do not constitute all the risk factors that pertain to our business but we do believe that they reflect the more important ones. Accordingly, you should review and consider such Risk Factors in making any investment decision with respect to our securities. An investment in our securities continues to involve a high degree of risk. There has been no material changes in the Risk Factors contained in our Annual Report.

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

     On January 25, 2012, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Michael Moretti. Pursuant to the securities purchase agreement, Mr. Moretti agreed to loan us $225,000 to fund operating capital and general corporate purposes. On January 25, 2012, we issued Mr. Moretti (a) a secured convertible promissory note and (b) a warrant to purchase 192,858 shares of our common stock (subject to adjustment for certain corporate transactions). The note carries an interest rate of 10% per annum and is convertible into shares of our common stock based on a $1.75 conversion price (subject to adjustment for certain corporate transactions). The note, to the extent that any part of the outstanding principal amount is not converted into shares of common stock, matures on the second anniversary of the date of the note, is secured by all of our assets, and includes customary provisions concerning events of default. The warrant is immediately exercisable, expires on January 24, 2014, and has an exercise price of $2.80 per share if exercised prior to July 25, 2012, $3.15 if exercised during the period July 25, 2012 through January 24, 2013, and $3.50 if exercised after January 24, 2013 and through the expiration of the warrant. Additionally, the securities purchase agreement contains a provision that if and only if, we consummate a fundamental transaction that results in a change in control, we will use our commercially reasonable best efforts to issue or to cause the other parties to the fundamental transaction to issue securities (be it Common Stock, other securities of DayStar, or securities of another party to the fundamental transaction) equal to the original principal amount of the note divided by $1.75.

     On March 14, 2012, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Sunlogics Power Fund Management Inc. Pursuant to the purchase agreement, Sunlogics Power Fund Management agreed to loan us $500,000 for payment of outstanding liabilities and other working capital purposes. On March 14, 2012, and March 16, 2012, we issued Sunlogics Power Fund Management two senior convertible promissory notes, representing our Senior Debt, in the principal amounts of $400,000 and $100,000, respectively. The notes carry an interest rate of 6% per annum and each note is convertible into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to the consolidated closing bid price of our common stock on the last business day prior to the issuance of the note (subject to adjustment for certain corporate transactions). Each of the notes, to the extent that any part of the outstanding principal amount is not converted into shares of common stock, matures on the first anniversary of the date of the issuance of the note, and includes customary provisions concerning events of default. These loans, including accrued interest, have been converted to 305,023 DayStar shares.

     The agreements for each of the transactions described above provide that in no event will we issue any common stock or securities convertible into common stock in connection with the conversion of the notes or exercise of the warrant without first obtaining stockholder approval if such issuance would result in us breaching our obligations under the applicable listing rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market.
