GOING CONCERN	The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern which contemplates that the Company will be able to realize assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, they do not give effect to any adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be required to liquidate its assets. The Company incurred a net loss of $2,882,790 attributable to ZBB Energy Corporation for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and as of September 30, 2012 has an accumulated deficit of $71,936,699 and total ZBB Energy Corporation equity of $9,409,742. The ability of the Company to settle its total liabilities of $8,233,297 and to continue as a going concern is dependent upon closing additional sales orders and availability of future funding and achieving profitability. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. As described in detail in Notes 8 and 11, in the year ended June 30, 2012 the Company raised approximately $2.2 million in net proceeds through the issuance of Zero Coupon Convertible Subordinated Notes in May 2012 (subsequently repaid in full by June 30, 2012), approximately $2.2 million in net proceeds through the issuance of shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to the Socius Agreement and approximately $15.5 million through the issuance of shares of common stock in various transactions to certain investors. The Company believes that working capital sufficient to fund operations through June 30, 2013 is dependent upon closing additional sales orders and/or raising additional investment capital. However, there can be no assurances that unforeseen circumstances will not require the Company to raise additional investment capital to fund its operations. If the Company is unable to obtain additional required funding, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected and the Company may not be able to continue operations. Accordingly, the Company is currently implementing certain plans designed to generate additional sales and reduce costs and is exploring various alternatives including strategic partnership transactions, and/or government programs that may be available to the Company.

- Definition

Disclosure of accounting policy for reporting when there is a substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time (generally a year from the balance sheet date). Disclose: (a) pertinent conditions and events giving rise to the assessment of substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, (b) the possible effects of such conditions and events, (c) management's evaluation of the significance of those conditions and events and any mitigating factors, (d) possible discontinuance of operations, (e) management's plans (including relevant prospective financial information), and (f) information about the recoverability or classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts or classification of liabilities. If management's plans alleviate the substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosure of the principal conditions and events that initially raised the substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern would be expected to be considered. Disclose whether operations for the current or prior years generated sufficient cash to cover current obligations, whether waivers were obtained from creditors relating to the company's default under the provisions of debt agreements and possible effects of such conditions and events, such as: whether there is a possible need to obtain additional financing (debt or equity) or to liquidate certain holdings to offset future cash flow deficiencies. Disclose appropriate parent company information when parent is dependent upon remittances from subsidiaries to satisfy its obligations.
