2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND CONTINUED OPERATIONS

Principle of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements of PureSafe Water Systems, Inc. include accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, PureSafe Manufacturing & Research Corporation. Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred a net loss of approximately $2.9 million and $3.4 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company has a working capital deficit of approximately $4.6 million and $3.9 million, and a stockholders’ deficiency of approximately $4.5 million and $3.7 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

The Company continues to incur recurring losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit since inception (1987) of approximately $45 million. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to bring products to market and generate revenues, control costs, operate profitably and obtain additional financing, as required and on reasonable terms. The Company plans with respect to these matters include restructuring our existing debt and raising additional capital through future issuances of stock and/or debt. The Company’s plans to raise an additional financing in the next twelve months.

 

The Company can provide no assurance that such financing will provide available on terms advantageous to the Company, or at all. However, should the Company not be successful in obtaining the necessary financing to fund its operations, the Company would need to curtail certain of its operational activities.
