Corporate History


The Company, a Nevada corporation, was originally organized on November 8, 1993 as B-N-B Enterprises Inc. for the purpose of engaging in any lawful activity.  The name was changed on August 31, 2004 to Lyon Capital Venture Corp. and subsequently to UTEC Inc. on March 7, 2007. The Company was in the development stage through December 31, 2006, and the year ended December 31, 2007 is the first year during which the Company is considered an operating company and is no longer in the development stage. On January 10, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with Energetic Systems Inc., LLC to acquire 100% of the shares of UTEC Corporation, Inc for a total consideration of 22,500,000 of the company’s par value $0.001









common shares and 20,000 of the company’s par value $0.001 preferred shares.  The Technical and Manufacturing Headquarters of the Company is located at 8500 South East Jayhawk Drive, PO Box 320, Riverton Kansas, 66770.  It’s business office is located at Suite 110, 2420 Springer Drive, Norman, Oklahoma, 73069.  The Company operates on the calendar fiscal year ending December 31st.  Currently, the Company has 12 employees, all employed by UTEC Corporation, now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Business of Issuer


From August 24, 2004 until it acquired UTEC, Inc. in January 2007, the Company was a developmental stage company without any operations.  The business of the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, UTEC Corporation, comprises the entire business of the Company and is considered the predecessor company.


For more than 30 years, the predecessor companies to the Company’s subsidiary have been involved in the research and development of commercial explosive products used by the construction, quarrying and mining industries in North America and elsewhere in the world.  The legacy business of the company actually had its start in the commercial explosives business of Gulf Oil Limited, and one of the sites currently occupied by the Company is a former coal mine which was mined by a subsidiary of Gulf Oil, and served as Gulf Explosives bulk truck garage, as well as









detonation testing facility. The sites were gradually expanded over time to include additional testing capabilities and research and development facilities. Following Gulf’s divestiture of its explosives business, it was owned briefly by another US explosives company until it was acquired by a subsidiary of  LSB industries of Oklahoma City, OK. In 2002, the Company’s legacy business was acquired as part of a larger transaction by Energetic Systems Inc., LLC., a company jointly owned at the time by American Pacific Corporation of Las Vegas NV and Wimase Limited of Dallas, Texas.  In late 2006, Energetic Systems Inc. divested itself of its other explosives holdings, and the Company’s legacy business was acquired by UTEC Corporation.  


To take advantage of both its legacy businesses and new business opportunities that were identified, the Company was reorganized ion 2007 into three marketing units:


1.

Energetic Materials, which includes the development and testing of commercial explosives.

2.

Specialty Chemicals and Raw Materials, which distributes chemicals that are used in commercial explosives; and

3.

Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction, a marketing unit that utilizes a new patented technology for the destruction of biological waste and other hazardous chemicals and military munitions.  This marketing unit is commercializing the Cold Plasma Oxidizer Technology for the total and complete destruction of solid and liquid hazardous chemicals and biological waste.

Energetic Materials Business Unit


This marketing unit is comprised of the company’s legacy business which includes the research, development and testing of commercial explosives.  The technical and manufacturing headquarters are located in Riverton, Kansas, on a two acre site, which also has a laboratory.  In addition, the company has a pilot plant facility with an Underwater Testing capability and a full scale production facility (PRUF – Propellant ReUse Facility) located on a separate 640 acre site near Hallowell, Kansas.


Today, the Company is one of a very few independent research and testing businesses in the word, located in the most competitive and innovative marketplace for commercial explosives and energetic materials, capable of performing large scale underwater energy tests.


The Company’s customers includecompanies owned by Orica Limited. and Dyno Nobel (both publicly listed Australian companies) - the top two global commercial explosives companies. Both have their own research and development facilities but choose our Company to provide additional services because of our low cost structure, customer focus, rapid response, and quality. While Orica and Dyno represent the two largest explosives producers of commercial explosives in North America, they represent only a sampling of the company’s customer base. The company currently provides testing, contract research and support services to most of the commercial explosives companies in North America, as well as several international companies. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, Dyno and Orica accounted for approximately 1/3 of testing revenues, but only a small percentage of contract research and support services. As









stated, the Company’s services have been utilized by most of the other major U.S. commercial explosives producers as well.  Either directly or through subcontracts, the Company’s services have also been used by the US Department of Defense, Department  of Transportation, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and other government agencies.  Equally important,The Company’s customers also include multinational automotive air bag manufacturers, gas generant manufacturers , energetic device manufacturers and the Company has been a subcontractor on a number of demilitarization programs.


Specialty Chemicals & Raw Materials Marketing Unit










The Specialty Chemicals & Raw Materials Marketing Unit is focused on the commercial explosives industry and is synergistic with the company’s energetic materials business unit.  The objective of this business unit is to be recognized as an international supplier of specialty chemicals to manufacturers in the commercial explosive industry.  Based on sales this year, this business unit generated strong revenues.  These sales were based solely on specialty chemicals and raw material sales to overseas customers.  The Company’s strengths lie in providing quality and timely services to its customers for a broad range of chemicals.  The Company will continue to penetrate the international market from Asia to Latin America, by creating strategic alliances with customers and raw material suppliers across the globe.


The Company is currently working on initiatives both domestically and internationally, and intends to capitalize on a recent technological invention (patent pending) on the next generation of emulsifiers for use in commercial explosives. During the past year, the Company has entered into supply agreements, typically simple purchase agreements (purchase orders), in the ordinary course of business with companies in India for raw materials and an ingredient for the synthesis of emulsifier.


Hazardous Chemicals & Biological Waste Destruction


In March of 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with Ceramatec Inc., of Salt Lake City, Utah, and licensed the world–wide exclusive rights to manufacture and market a Waste Destruction System utilizing the Cold Plasma Oxidizer Technology.  The license agreement with Ceramatec gives the Company sole marketing and sales rights to this unique technology as it relates to the “hazardous waste destruction” market segment. The Ceramatec agreement is a simple licensing and supply agreement, which stipulates that in order to maintain exclusivity a minimum number of units must be ordered from Ceramatec every year. The number for 2008 is two, and the number for 2009 is four. At the date of this filing, one of the 2008 units has been ordered by and delivered to the Company., and the schedule and delivery for the second unit are currently being discussed with Ceramatec. If any of the conditions of the agreement are not met, the license reverts to non-exclusive, but the Company retains all other rights.


The Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction Marketing Unit provides commercial solutions for the processing of chemical and biological wastes into carbon dioxide and water.  The Company’s advanced waste treatment technologies are suitable for a variety of industrial, hazardous, municipal, and clinical waste streams and offer an extremely elegant, cost effective and novel way that allows customers to destroy their own hazardous chemicals and biological waste in-house, on-demand. While the Company will manufacture Waste Destruction equipment, the Company does not destroy wastes in any of its facilities, as this activity is carried out by the customers of that equipment on their premises. By using the Company’s equipment as a part of the overall process, most customers may not be classified as generators of hazardous waste.


The testing of explosives is also a benign activity, since the testing is designed to measure detonation properties. As such, the explosive completely detonates and the composition reacts, releasing no more residues than are found in any commercial blasting application for quarries









found in most cities, trenching applications done by utility companies, and construction blasting for new residential and commercial land development and preparation.


The Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction Business Unit provides commercial solutions for the processing of chemical and biological wastes into carbon dioxide and water. The Company’s advanced waste treatment technologies are suitable for a variety of industrial, hazardous, municipal, and clinical waste streams and offer an extremely elegant, cost effective and novel way that allows customers to destroy their own hazardous chemicals and biological waste in-house, on-demand.


The Company is not a waste disposal company and does not destroy waste in-house.  The Company makes all of the necessary equipment for waste destruction purposes.


Incineration, the standard disposal method for solid hospital wastes, gives off carbon dioxide and nitrogen containing gases which pollute the atmosphere.  Utilizing the Company’s waste destruction technology provides a sophisticated waste management program that addresses the need for waste destruction while at the same time avoiding the production of toxic by-products. Compact size, light weight, excellent environmental performance and ease of operation are among the many advantages this technology offers.


The three initial potential market segments identified with great potential are ‘energetic materials’, ‘hazardous chemicals’, and ‘biological wastes’.  These three market segments are already dealing with the disposal of their waste material using traditional methodologies.  Each year, however, disposal becomes more difficult and costly.


The Company’s methodology of destroying waste will provide for a unique, cost and logistically effective method of solving this growing problem.  Additionally, this technology can be considered as “green technology”, when compared with traditional methods.


The added potential of extracting useable work or energy when this technology is used in the ‘exothermic’ mode (heat / energy is released) is an added benefit in that the excess energy in the form of heat can be utilized within other facility operations.


The overall waste disposal/destruction industry is and has been a growth industry for many years.  New and more rigorous regulations are coming into effect each and every year.  The new and novel aspect of our particular method and system of hazardous waste destruction has a number of specific advantages over traditional methods:


1.  Hazardous waste can be treated/dealt with “on-site”


2.  Units are compact, requiring only a small footprint


3.  Units can be scaled up or down depending upon the volume of material to be destructed


4.  The cost per unit is relatively inexpensive as compared to the material being consumed or the cost of conventional removal/destruction









5.  There is currently no direct competition that replicates this method of hazardous waste Destruction.


6.  This method can be considered as “Green” technology


7.  Operational modes can include the extraction of energy (exothermic mode) for use within other aspects of an industrial site.


The preferred method of sales and marketing the units will be to lease the units themselves.  This is expected to be attractive to many customers in that the initial monetary outlay is reduced.  Further, this approach affords an ongoing close relationship between the end-use customers to ensure efficient use of the system.


The lease price would be a fee for each pound of waste material destroyed by the unit.


(c)  Manufacturing Highlights


Manufacturing the Company’s Waste Disposal Units incorporating the Cold Plasma Oxidizer technology will involve the supply of certain key parts by the Licensor, with final fabrication and assembly by contract engineering fabricators according to the the Company’s specifications.  Actual design, assembly specifications, manufacturing and customer installation oversight will be provided by the Company’s engineers.  The fabrication of the BETA waste destruction units is being done in-house, with some off-the-shelf components being purchased from domestic companies and some of the fabrication being outsourced to fabrication shops in the Kansas area.



Item 2 – MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS


2007 was the first year of operations for the Company., after it acquired the UTEC Corporation from Energetic Systems Inc..  All comparisons in this document are to original budget estimates prepared when the Company acquired the business.  In 2007 the Company was organized into three marketing units, Energetic Materials, Specialty Chemicals and Raw Materials and Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction.  The Company’s historical legacy business was primarily constituted by the first two marketing units and almost exclusively within the commercial explosives market.  Revenue comparisons are included from these two activities.


The new marketing unit, Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction was in a development stage during the year, and had no commercial revenues.  Focus during the year was on licensing and validation of the Cold Plasma Oxidizer technology, and on the development of the Company’s Waste Destruction System, identification of potential markets, and preparation of its business plan.  This business unit will be independently staffed and structured in order to pursue commercialization of Cold Plasma Oxidizer waste destruction systems during 2008.










Revenues


Revenues in 2006 were $1,480,875, and obtained mainly from testing services. Revenues in 2007 were $1,365,805. The legacy explosives testing and services business generated $893,000, or 65% of total revenues.  Major activities that contributed to this revenue were primarily in the areas of contract research and product development and independent product testing.  In addition, revenues totaling $472,000 came from the Specialty Chemicals Unit through the manufacture and sale of inorganic chemical sensitizers to customers engaged in commercial explosives production.  We project that 2008 revenue will increase with new business in both areas, but most specifically in the Specialty Chemicals area as new materials are made available to customers, and developments in new technologies are pursued.


Expenditures


The Company’s legacy business has historically been service based with temporary employees retained on an as needed basis to support manufacturing activities.  Wages in 2007 were consistent with this trend with the wage and burden expense as a percent of total expenses at 55% totaling $868,000.  Wages dedicated to SG&A activities amounted to $247,000, with the balance of $519,000 dedicated to research and development.  


The Company’s legacy business is engaged in the research, development, testing and analysis of commercial explosives.  Some of the R&D activities have been in the development of new or improved technologies or new product development to be used internally within the company.  The cost associated with such activities varies from year to year and totals less than $100,000 over the calendar years 2006 and 2007.

 

Some of the other R&D activities during the last two years have been in the testing, analysis and QC (quality control) areas and the costs associated with these activities was about $250,000 in 2006, and $300,000 in 2007.  These costs are passed to the Company’s customers, as per the agreements the Company has with the various customers.

 

The Company owns all of the research and testing facilities and these facilities are operated by Company personnel/employees.  None of the facilities are operated by the Company’s customers or licensees or any other third parties.


Travel related expenses, which mostly constitute business support and development activities, totaled $87,000, and involved several trips overseas to pursue international business opportunities.  


Accounting and management expenditures totaling $143,000, consisting of audit fees, and financial and accounting services provided by related third parties for the cost of the home office functions.  


Other significant expenditures include advertising and promotion of $66,500, and depreciation and amortization expense of $123,000.  The company did not purchase any capital









items in 2007 with the exception of acquiring the exclusive right to develop and market Cold Plasma Technology for the Waste Destruction Business Unit from Ceramatec, Inc. (See Notes to Financial Statement 8).

 

Assets


The Company invoices its services and products as they are provided or shipped to its customers.  The majority of its sales are to customers who are large privately held or publicly traded organizations, many of whom have been in business for a number of years.  As a consequence, the Company’s record in collecting it’s accounts receivable is exemplary.  Although the nature of the Company’s business is expected to grow and change in the next several years, it is not expected that targeted customers’ profiles will differ significantly.  The Company therefore does not anticipate a change in credit risk.  


The Company was self-funding for most of the year, drawing periodically on a credit facility provided to it by one of its shareholders.


In addition to accounts receivable, the Company maintains a small inventory of supplies and materials necessary to support its legacy manufacturing and testing business.  This inventory turns regularly.  Some components are hazardous materials, and they are stored by the Company in federally and state-regulated storage facilities.  To the extent that any of the items included in inventory became obsolete during the year, the items were written off and disposed of.


Intangible assets consist mainly of the Company’s portfolio of intellectual property which is the basis for the Company’s research and development and testing activities. Patents currently held by the Company are listed in the table below:

In addition, these patents, any licensed technology, and the know-how that resides within the Company represent the Company’s overall technology portfolio which goes beyond the patents directly held by the Company.


Property, plant and equipment is composed of the Company’s physical facilities at Riverton and Hallowell, Kansas, and related equipment and storage used in its business.  The Company’s facilities are located on lands leased from a subsidiary of Energetic Systems Inc., LLC., pursuant to a prepaid lease.


Liabilities


The Company’s liabilities primarily consist of current amounts payable or accrued to trade creditors, and amounts owing to related parties for management fees, expenses, and shared services.


Certain of the materials the company uses or handles are hazardous materials.  These materials are stored in federally and state licensed storage facilities, under permits granted to the Company.  As of December 31, 2007, the company was not in violation of any of its license and permits required to carry on its business.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


As of December 31, 2007, the company had $89,277 cash on hand.  Periodically, the Company finds itself in a negative cash flow position.  While the Company has limited liquidity, it did finish the year funding its operations with internally generated cash, with the exception of some short term temporary funding required during the third quarter.  To fund the expansion of the company’s business into the Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction business, the company will need to raise significant capital with debt and/or equity financing. If the company is unsuccessful in securing additional funding, the commercialization schedule for the new Waste Destruction marketing plan will be delayed.


The predecessor businesses to the Company’s subsidiary has been in business for over 30 years.  Thus, the Company has an established customer base and demand for its products and services.  The Company believes it will generate sufficient cash flow to cover its current business responsibilities over the next 12 months, but if short term funding is necessary, the Company has assets available to act as security to guarantee short term funding from conventional loan sources. If necessary, the management may guarantee these potential loans, but there is no current written or oral agreement for such guarantees. The Company has from time to time sufficient receivables to act as security for short term funding guarantees. The Company may, if necessary, seek equity funding from third parties.











Item 3 – DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES


The Technical and Manufacturing Headquarters are located in Riverton, Kansas, on a two acre site with an office building. An Underwater Testing Lab and PRUF Plant is located on a separate six hundred and forty acre site near Hallowell, Kansas.  The Business Office is located in Norman, Oklahoma.

Item 8 - DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED


General Description.










The Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 74,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.001. The holders of the Shares: (a) have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available therefore, when, as, and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company; (b) are entitled to share ratably in all of the assets of the Company available for distribution upon winding up of the affairs of the Company; (c) do not have preemptive subscription or conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund applicable thereto; and (d) are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which shareholders may vote at all meetings of shareholders. These securities do not have any of the following rights: (a) cumulative or special voting rights; (b) preemptive rights to purchase in new issues of Shares; (c) preference as to dividends or interest; (d) preference upon liquidation; or (e) any other special rights or preferences.  In addition, the Shares are not convertible into any other security.  There are no restrictions on dividends under any loan other financing arrangements or otherwise. See a copy of the Articles of Incorporation, and an amendment thereto, and Bylaws of the Company, attached as Exhibit 3.1, Exhibit 3.2, and Exhibit 3.3, respectively, to this Form 10.  As of the date of this Form 10, the Company had 51,852,159 shares of common stock outstanding.


The Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of Preferred stock, with a par value of $0.001. The holders of these Shares carry a conversion of two common shares of the Company for each preferred share surrendered. As of the date of this Form 10, the Company had 42,013 preferred shares outstanding.

Non-Cumulative Voting.

The holders of Shares of Common Stock of the Company do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of such outstanding Shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose. In such event, the holders of the remaining Shares will not be able to elect any of the Company’s directors.

Dividends.

The Company does not currently intend to pay cash dividends. The Company’s proposed dividend policy is to make distributions of its revenues to its stockholders when the Company’s Board of Directors deems such distributions appropriate. Because the Company does not intend to make cash distributions, potential shareholders would need to sell their shares to realize a return on their investment. There can be no assurances of the projected values of the shares, nor can there be any guarantees of the success of the Company.

A distribution of revenues will be made only when, in the judgment of the Company’s Board of Directors, it is in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders to do so. The Board of Directors will review, among other things, the investment quality and marketability of the securities considered for distribution; the impact of a distribution of the investee’s securities on its customers, joint venture associates, management contracts, other investors, financial institutions, and the company’s internal management, plus the tax consequences and the market effects of an initial or broader distribution of such securities.









Possible Anti-Takeover Effects of Authorized but Un-issued Stock.

The Company’s authorized but un-issued capital stock consists of 22,147,841 Shares of common stock and 957,987 shares of preferred stock. One effect of the existence of authorized but un-issued capital stock may be to enable the Board of Directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest, or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of the Company’s management. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, for example, the Board of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal was not in the Company’s best interests, such shares could be issued by the Board of Directors without stockholder approval in one or more private placements or other transactions that might prevent, or render more difficult or costly, completion of the takeover transaction by diluting the voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder or stockholder group, by creating a substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might undertake to support the position of the incumbent Board of Directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise.

Transfer Agent.

The Company has engaged the services of Island Stock Transfer Co., 100 2nd Ave S., Ste 104N, St. Petersburg, FL  33701to act as transfer agent and registrar.

Item 3 - CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Item 4 - RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES


 

On January 10, 2007, the Company purchased certain assets of Energetic Systems Inc., LLC., of Norman, Oklahoma, USA.  Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Energetic Systems Inc., LLC was issued 22,500,000 Common Shares, and was issued 20,000 preferred shares of the Company.  


On February 26, 2007, the Company issued 1,914,000 of its $.001 par value common shares by way of options to Officers, Directors, and key employees of the Company that can be sold eighteen months after the issuance. Subsequently to December 31, 2007, these shares were cancelled and replaced by a non-qualified option to the same Officers, Directors and key employees for the same number of shares.


On March 7, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with Ceramatec, Inc., a Utah Corporation, having its primary place of business located at 2425 South 900 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84119 wherein the Company obtained a world-wide, exclusive, royalty-free license to utilize Ceramatec’s Glyd-Arc Plasma Oxidizer technology for the total and complete destruction of solid and liquid hazardous chemicals and biological waste.  The Company issued 850,000 of its $.001 par value common shares to Ceramatec that Ceramatec may sell the stock starting two









years from the date of the agreement.  These unregistered share were issued under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as they were transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.


On August 29, 2007, entered into an agreement with Princeton Research of Nevada, Inc., 3887 Pacific Street, Las Vegas, NV 89121 wherein Princeton was to provide media consulting services to the Company and the Company issued 50,000 shares of its $.001 par value common shares as compensation.  These unregistered share were issued under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as they were transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.



Item 5 - INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.


No director of the Company will have personal liability to the Company or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director involving any act or omission of any such director since provisions have been made in the Articles of Incorporation limiting such liability.  The foregoing provisions shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or, which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under applicable Sections of the Nevada Revised Statutes, (iv) the payment of dividends in violation of Section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes or, (v) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.


The By-laws provide for indemnification of the directors, officers, and employees of the Company in most cases for any liability suffered by them or arising out of their activities as directors, officers, and employees of the Company if they were not engaged in willful misfeasance or malfeasance in the performance of his or her duties; provided that in the event of a settlement the indemnification will apply only when the Board of Directors approves such settlement and reimbursement as being for the best interests of the Corporation.  The Bylaws, therefore, limit the liability of directors to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law (Section 78.751).


The officers and directors of the Company are accountable to the Company as fiduciaries, which means they are required to exercise good faith and fairness in all dealings affecting the Company.   In the event that a shareholder believes the officers and/or directors have violated their fiduciary duties to the Company, the shareholder may, subject to applicable rules of civil procedure, be able to bring a class action or derivative suit to enforce the shareholder’s rights, including rights under certain federal and state securities laws and regulations to recover damages from and require an accounting by management..  Shareholders who have suffered losses in connection with the purchase or sale of their interest in the Company in connection with such sale or purchase, including the misapplication by any such officer or director of the proceeds from the sale of these securities, may be able to recover such losses from the Company.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of UTeC, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of UTeC, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

UTEC, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2007


1.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


g)

Business Activity


UTEC INC., formerly Lyon Capital Venture Corp., is a Nevada corporation organized on November 8, 1993 as a “For Profit” corporation for the purpose of engaging in any lawful activity.  The Company was in the development stage through December 31, 2006, and the year ended December 31, 2007 is the first year during which the Company is considered an operating company and is no longer in the development stage.  On January 10, 2007 the Company purchased 100% of the shares of UTEC Corporation, Inc for a total consideration of 22,500,000 of the company’s par value $0.001 common shares and 20,000 of the company’s par value $0.001 preferred shares.  The Company also issued 2,525,000 common shares in finder’s fees.    


The Company’s business is to offer state of the art testing and analysis to clients worldwide.  The Company is a leader in commercial explosives technology including development, analysis, testing and manufacturing.


The Company operates a chemical research and development laboratory near Riverton, Kansas, which specializes in commercial explosives development and analysis. The Company also operates a destructive test facility near Hallowell, Kansas, which specializes in determining the detonating characteristics of commercial explosives.


b) Principles of Consolidation


The financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, UTEC Corporation.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.



c) Cash and Cash Equivalents


For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The Company had $89,337 and $20,100 cash or cash equivalents at December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 respectively.


d) Trade Accounts Receivable and Credit Policy


Trade accounts receivable consist of amounts billed to customers for purchases of services and energetic materials. The Company extends credit to customers in accordance with normal industry standards and terms, which are typically net 30 to 45 days.  Credit risk arises as customers default on trade accounts receivable owed to the Company. The Company considers accounts receivable to be fully collectible; accordingly, no allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded. If amounts are subsequently determined to be uncollectible, they will be charged to operations when that determination is made.


e) Revenue Recognition


The Company recognizes revenue when materials are shipped or services are provided, and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collection of the relevant receivable is probable, and the sales price is fixed or determinable.  The Company records customer shipping and handling charges as revenues with the associated costs recorded to cost of sales.


f) Inventories


Inventories consist of purchased materials held for resale and are carried at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.


g) Property, Plant and Equipment

F-6



5






Property, plant and equipment are carried at fair value for assets contributed in connection with the acquisition, and at cost for assets acquired subsequent to the acquisition date, less accumulated depreciation from the date of acquisition through the balance sheet date. The Company periodically assesses the recoverability of property, plant and equipment and evaluates such assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the net carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Asset impairment is determined to exist if estimated future cash flows, undiscounted and without interest charges, are less than the net carrying amount. Depreciation expense is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimate useful lives of the assets as follows:


Building and leasehold improvements

10-25 years

Machinery and equipment

10-15 years

Furniture and fixtures and transportation equipment

3-7 years


Major additions and improvements are capitalized in the month following the month in which the assets or improvement are deemed to be placed in service. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Upon disposition, the net book value is eliminated from the accounts, with the resultant gain or loss reflected in operations.


h) Research and Development Costs


Research and development costs for the development of new products and update of existing products are expensed as incurred.


i) Income Taxes


The Company recognizes the tax effects of transactions in the year in which such transactions enter into the determination of net income, regardless of when reported for tax purposes.  Deferred taxes are provided in the financial statements under Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109 to give effect to the resulting temporary differences which may arise from differences in the bases of fixed assets, depreciation methods, allowances, share-based compensation, and start-up costs based on the income taxes expected to be payable in future years.  


j) Concentrations


The Company maintains balances in bank accounts that, at times, exceed federally insured limits. Management believes the risk of loss associated with this concentration is minimal.


For the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, two customers accounted for approximately 34% and 28% of the Company’s net sales, respectively.


At December 31, 2007, one customer accounted for approximately 80% of the Company’s accounts receivable.


k) Estimates


Preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual amounts may differ from those reported.


Certain significant estimates include the fair value of the Company’s intangible assets and the related amortization period.  These estimates are discussed in further detail at Note 6.


l) Going Concern Assumption


As of December 31, 2007 the company had $89,277 cash on hand.  Periodically, the Company finds itself in a negative cash flow position.  While the company has limited liquidity it did finish the year funding its operations with internally generated cash only with the exception of some short term temporary funding required during the third quarter.   To fund the expansion of the company’s business into the Hazardous Chemicals and Biological Waste Destruction business the company will need to raise significant capital with debt and/or equity financing. If the company is unsuccessful in funding, the commercialization schedule for the new Waste Destruction marketing plan will be delayed.




6






The predecessor businesses to the Company’s subsidiary have been in business for over 30 years.   Thus, the Company has an established customer base and demand for its products and services. The Company believes it will generate sufficient cash flow to cover its current business responsibilities over the next 12 months, but if short term funding is necessary, the Company has assets available to act as security to guarantee short term funding from conventional loan sources. If necessary, the management may guarantee these potential loans, but there is no current written or oral agreement for such guarantees. The Company has from time to time sufficient receivables to act as security for short term funding guarantees.


m)  Intangible Assets


Intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.


Intangible assets consist of a customer list and patent rights.  These intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives and tested for impairment if certain circumstances indicate and impairment may exist.  As of December 2007 the remaining amortization period is sixteen years for the customer list and the patent rights.


Intangible assets that are amortized are tested for impairment at the asset level associated with the lowest level of cash flows.  An impairment exists if the carrying value of the asset is i) not recoverable (the carrying value of the asset is greater than the sum of the undiscounted cash flows) and ii) is greater than its fair value.


n)  Advertising Costs


Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and totaled approximately $67,000 during the year ended December 31, 2007.


2.

Unaudited Pro Forma Results


Unaudited pro forma financial information is presented below as if the acquisition of UTEC Corporation occurred at the beginning of calendar year 2006.  The pro forma information presented below does not purport to present what the actual results would have been had the acquisition in fact occurred at the beginning of calendar year 2006, nor does the information project results for any future period.  Pro forma financial information is not presented for calendar year 2007 because the acquisition occurred on January 10, 2007, which was 10 days after the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year 2007.  As a result, the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for fiscal 2007 effectively includes UTEC Corporation’s results of operations for comparative purposes.

Intangible Assets


Intangible assets consist of the following at December 31, 2007:


Patent rights

71,600

Customer relationships

1,125,000

Accumulated amortization

(69,350)

$

1,127,250


 The Patent rights are based upon the contractual agreement between the Company and Ceramatec, as described in Note 9.  The Company is amortizing these Patent rights over 17 years.


Customer relationships represent the net present value of the discounted cash flows of customer relationships contributed by the Company in connection with the acquisition.  Although the Company does not typically have long-term contracts with these customers, most of them have been customers of the Company for many years.  The Company is amortizing the net present value of the estimated future cash flows of these customers over seventeen (17) years, which is based on the consistency, length and the unique nature of the customer relationships and the service which the Company provides.


Amortization expense for the next five years related to intangible assets is expected to be as follows:


2008

$70,400

2009

Earnings (Loss) Per Share


Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) excludes dilution and is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted EPS is computed in a manner similar to that of basic EPS except that the weighted-average number of common shares is increased to include the number of incremental common shares (computed using the Treasury Stock method) that would have been outstanding if all potentially dilutive common shares (such as stock options) were issued during the period.  Diluted EPS is the same as basic EPS if the effect of the incremental shares is anti-dilutive.


For the twelve month period ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share were the same, as all potentially dilutive shares were anti-dilutive.

Income Taxes


The provision for income taxes consists of the following for the twelve months ended December 31:

Deferred (benefit)

(119,900)

The Deferred tax asset consists of the following at December 31:


2007


Accrued liabilities not currently deductible

$(16,600)

Deferred stock compensation

(40,800)

Deductible prepaid insurance

2,300

Net operating loss carryforwards

(64,800)

Net Deferred Tax Asset

$(119,900)


In assessing the realizability of the net deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon either the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to become deductible.  Management considers the entire deferred tax asset to be fully realizable at December 31, 2007, and accordingly, has not recorded a valuation allowance.  During the twelve month period ended December 31, 2007, the Company has reversed valuation allowances previously provided totaling $12,900.


The Company is not currently subject to any specific audit by any federal, state or local taxing authority.  There are no unrecognized tax benefits or tax positions previously taken which could give rise to uncertainty, and therefore there are no calculations or classifications of interest, penalties, or effects on income taxes related to such uncertainties.


At December 31, 2007, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards totaling approximately $170,000, which primarily begin to expire in 2021.


Actual income taxes differ from “expected” income tax, computed by applying the U.S. Federal corporate income tax rate of 34% to earnings (loss) from operations before income taxes for the twelve months ended December 31 as follows:

Contractual Obligations


a)  Ceramatec, Inc.



10







Effective February 1, 2007 the company entered into a License and Supply Agreement with Ceramatec, Inc. of Salt Lake City, Utah (“License”) for a world wide exclusive royalty-free license to practice Cermatec’s Gild Arc Plasma Oxidizer technology for the destruction of solid and liquid hazardous chemicals and biologicals.  The agreement continues to the full end of the term or terms for which patent rights held by Ceramatec and related to the technology have not expired.


In connection with the agreement, the Company granted 850,000 shares of its Common Stock to Ceramatec.  Subject to any Securities and Exchange Commission regulations, Ceramatec may sell its stock starting two years from the Effective Date of the agreement.  If Ceramatec is not able to sell its stock granted under this agreement for at least $700,000 within the first two years after it is allowed to sell its stock under this agreement, then any license granted under this agreement shall become non-exclusive.  Ceramatec agreed to pay a finders fees of 85,000 shares to a third party in connection with this agreement.


The Company has recorded an asset equal to the estimated fair value of the Common Stock granted pursuant to this agreement, of $71,600.  Although the closing price of the stock on the effective date of the agreement was higher than the price used to value this contract the Company believes a more accurate estimate of the value of the stock is derived by calculating the value of the shares exchanged for acquiring UTEC Corporation.  See Notes 2(a) and 2(b).  The Company is amortizing the asset over seventeen (17) years, which is the estimated remaining life of the patents to which the Company has exclusivity rights.  See Note 5.


During the term of the License, the company is obligated to purchase plasma oxidizer units from Ceramatec in order to maintain exclusivity under the license agreement. The company’s minimum obligations under this purchase arrangement are begin in 2008 and are $100,000 in 2008, $200,000 in 2009 and $600,000 for each remaining year of the agreement. If the minimum purchase requirement is not met for any year, the license grant of this agreement shall automatically convert from exclusive to nonexclusive for the remainder of the term of the agreement.


The License includes a provision that entitles the Company to any improvements to the technology, whether patentable or not, without further cost to the Company.


10.

Employee Stock Plan


Effective January 12, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a “Consultant and Employee Stock Option and Award Plan” and reserved 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to this plan.  In connection with the adoption of the plan, the Company also awarded 1,914,000 shares of restricted stock to certain key employees and consultants.  The stock grants to the key employees have an 18 month vesting period from the date of the grant, and become fully vested on July 12, 2008.  


Upon vesting the stock will become the property of the employee free of restriction and can be sold, gifted or otherwise transferred.  The right to the stock never lapses nor is it dependent on the exercise of the stock.  The stock carries a strike price value of $0.25 per share.  The stock would not be sold unless its market value exceeds the strike price.  Since the employee is not required to exercise the strike price the employees basis in the stock is zero and therefore cannot be written off or a loss taken.


A summary of the status of the Company’s non-vested shares as of December 31, 2007, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2007, is presented below:



Non-vested Shares

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, the Company has recognized compensation expense of $107,401 and a corresponding increase to Common Stock and Additional Paid-in Capital based upon the estimated fair value of the Common Stock at the date of the grant and the vesting period of the grants.  Amortization expense of $53,620 is to be booked in 2008 which represents the remaining six (6) months of the term before the stock is fully vested.

Subsequent Events


Subsequent to December 31, 2007, the Company replaced the 2007 Consultant and Employee Stock Option and Award Plan with a new plan entitled the “Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement”.  In connection with the new plan, the Company canceled the stock grants issued to the recipients an replaced them with option awards.  The Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees with those of its shareholders. Option awards were granted with an exercise price of $0.25 per share, but not less than 65% of the fair market value on the date of grant March 26, 2008.  The option awards vest over the period the services are provided, five (5) years, and terminate at the end of that period or on the date the employee is no longer employed with the Company.

New Accounting Pronouncements


In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, as amended in February 2008 by FSP FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are effective for the Company as of January 1, 2008. However, FSP FAS 157-2 defers the effective date for all nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except those items recognized or disclosed at fair value on an annual or more frequently recurring basis, until January 1, 2009. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. We do not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on our financial statements.


In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. The provisions are effective for the Company as of January 1, 2008. This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and report unrealized gains and losses on these instruments in earnings. We do not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on our financial statements.


In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations. The provisions, which change the way companies account for business combinations, are effective for the Company as of January 1, 2009. This statement requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction; establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; and requires the acquirer to disclose all information needed by investors to understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. We do not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material impact on our financial statements.


In December 2007, the FASB also issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, the provisions of which are effective for the Company as of January 1, 2009. This statement requires an entity to classify noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries as a separate component of equity. Additionally, transactions between an entity and noncontrolling interests are required to be treated as equity transactions. We are currently evaluating the impact of this statement on our financial statements.
