Alpha-En Corporation
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Organization and Operations

Alpha-En Corporation (Company) was incorporated in Delaware on March 7, 1997 and had operated through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Avenue Pictures, Inc. and its subsidiaries and Wombat Productions, Inc., through May 2, 2006.

From May 2, 2006, through February 24, 2009, the Company had been inactive.

On February 25, 2009, the Company was granted a license for an exclusive, worldwide, transferable, perpetual license to use certain proprietary technology for the processing of lithium for use in batteries and other fields.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial statements and with the rules and regulations under Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements presentation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for interim financial statements have been included. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company together with the Company's management discussion and analysis in Item 2 of this report and in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year.

Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company's consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 
5

 

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are recorded at fair value and, as they an indefinite life, will not be amortized.  The carrying value of the intangible assets will be evaluated by management for impairment at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the carrying amount may be greater than its fair value.  If impaired, the Company will write down such impairment.  In addition, the useful life of the intangible assets will be evaluated by management at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the useful life may be definitive and the Company will commence amortization over such useful life.

Consideration of Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated all events and transactions occurring after June 30, 2010 through August 20, 2010, the date these financial statements were issued, to identify subsequent events which may need to be recognized or non-recognizable events which would need disclosure.

No recognizable events were identified for disclosure.  See Note 6 for non-recognizable events disclosed.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

3. Going Concern and Management’s Plans

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had incurred operating losses, has negative working capital and no operating cash flow and future losses are anticipated. The Company’s plan of operations, to raise equity financing, even if successful, may not result in cash flow sufficient to finance and expand its business and generate sales from the License (see Note 4).  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Realization of assets is dependent upon future operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon management’s plans to meet its financing requirements and the success of its future operations.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue existence.

4. Intangible Assets

On February 25, 2009, The Company was granted an exclusive, worldwide, transferable, perpetual license (the “License”) to use certain proprietary technology for the processing of lithium for use in batteries and other fields.  A patent application relating to the licensed technology is pending.

 
6

 

The License fee shall consist of the following:

 
(1)
Issuance of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company;
 
 
(2)
A royalty of $1.00 per kilogram of lithium products manufactured and sold, payable    quarterly;
 
 
(3)
A royalty of $.10 per kilogram of excess products manufactured and sold, payable  quarterly;
 
 
(4)
Issuance of an additional 2,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company to the licensor which are restricted and subject to forfeiture if there has not been at least $1,000,000 in total commercial sales of licensed products within three years (“Threshold”);
 
 
(5)
Grant of options to purchase up to a total of 19% (inclusive of previously issued shares) of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company upon the issuance of any additional shares after the date of the License.  These options are exercisable at the same prices as the shares sold or values received for five years from each grant date.  These grants are only issuable if the Threshold is met.

Upon a transfer of the entire License, the Company shall pay the licensor a fee equal to 19% of all compensation received on the transfer.

The License has been recorded at its fair value of $250,000 based on the management’s projected net cash flows to be realized from sales of products under the License.

5. Notes Payable

On March 10, 2010, in connection with the purchase of directors and officers liability insurance, the Company borrowed $14,532, payable in nine equal monthly installments of $1,690, including interest of 11.04%, per annum, through December 2010.

6. Related Party Transactions

As of June 30, 2010, loan payable – stockholder/officer was $ 9,891, payable on demand, with interest at 5%, per annum.

On May 25, 2010, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of its common stock in payment of $160,000 of the loan payable-shareholder

In July 2010, the Company borrowed an additional $2,000 from the stockholder/officer.

An officer of the Company provides administrative space without rent.

7. Income Taxes

As of June 30, 2010, management has evaluated and concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions required recognition in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

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

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes included in this report. This discussion includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. As a result of many factors, our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements.
 
Background and Overview
 
Our company cut back daily operations in late 2005 and essentially ceased daily operations in May 2006.  In September 2005, we sold certain assets to Cary Brokaw Productions, and subsequently ceased the business of producing feature films, television films and made-for-television/cable movies.  Cary Brokaw also resigned from our board and as our Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer.  Gene Feldman assumed certain duties previously held by Mr. Brokaw, including becoming our Chairman of the Board.
 
In May 2006, Gene Feldman was diagnosed with lymphoma and resigned from his position with us.  On August 25, 2006, Gene Feldman passed away. On September 1, 2006, Mr. Feldman’s nephew, Michael D. Feldman, stepped in to become our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and Jerome I. Feldman, Gene Feldman’s brother and Michael D. Feldman’s father, became our Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Vice Chairman of the Board.  From the date of Gene Feldman’s resignation through the date we entered into a Technology License Agreement (as described below), we have been substantially inactive.  All monies disbursed by us from 2006 through January 2010 were used to pay the previously-incurred accounting fees and for the payment of directors and officers’ insurance premiums.  During that period, we have had no employees and our board of directors has not met.
 
Effective May 2006, we sold our remaining assets to the estate of Gene Feldman, pursuant to an agreement between Gene Feldman and us in early 2006; however, the actual closing of the transaction did not occur until January 2007.
 
Metallic Lithium Technology License
 
On February 25, 2009, we entered into a Technology License Agreement with the Amendola Family Trust, a trust created by Steven Amendola.  Pursuant to the License Agreement, we acquired an exclusive, worldwide, perpetual license to use certain proprietary technology for manufacturing metallic lithium for use in batteries and other fields.  We believe this technology allows for the manufacture of metallic lithium more efficiently and more inexpensively than current methods.  Lithium batteries are used in cell phones, digital cameras, i-pods and many other high technology devices and applications.

More broadly, the License Agreement grants to us the rights to use, further license, sublicense and subcontract the technology to third parties for the purification, manufacture, purchase of components, quality inspection, assembly, testing, installation, commissioning and operation of the manufacturing process and sale of metallic lithium in or for batteries and related devices and other fields.  A patent application relating to the licensed technology is pending.

In consideration for the license grant, we issued 1,000,000 shares of our common stock to the Amendola Family Trust, and have agreed to pay the licensor a royalty of (i) $1.00 per kilogram of lithium product manufactured and sold, and (ii) in the event sodium is produced out of the manufacture of lithium, $0.10 per kilogram of sodium manufactured and sold.  The royalty is payable by us quarterly and subject to audit rights by the licensor.

Additionally, we have agreed to issue to the Amendola Family Trust a further 2,000,000 shares of our common stock, but which shares are restricted and subject to forfeiture if there has not been at least $1,000,000 in total commercial sales of licensed products by February 25, 2012 (three years after the date of the License Agreement).

 
9

 

We have also agreed to issue to the Amendola Family Trust, an option, exercisable only in the event commercial sales reach $1,000,000 as noted above and for five years after the date of the License Agreement, to purchase up to such number of shares of our common stock (“option shares”) such that the option shares, when added to the number of shares of common owned by the Amendola Family Trust or any of its affiliates prior to exercise of the option, will be equal to 19% of the total number of outstanding shares of our common stock after the exercise of the option, at an exercise price that is the same price as then current sales by us of our shares during the term of the License Agreement.

We expect our future operations will be centered around metallic lithium battery technology (an estimated market in excess of $1.0 billion according to independent industry sources).  No assurance can be given, however, that we will be successful in these efforts.

It is our intention to develop pilot manufacturing of metallic lithium and from such production, manufacture sufficient material to insure the quality, test the marketing and commence initial pilot sales.  We would lease manufacturing space at the facilities of RSI Silicon Products LLC in Easton, Pennsylvania.  It would be necessary to raise sufficient funds to commence such pilot manufacturing over the next six months and it would be the responsibility of management to initiate such financing.  We would hire technical and operational support personnel as necessary to reach appropriate staffing levels at such time.

Metallic lithium is distinguishable from other existing forms of battery technology in that it has a higher energy density than zinc or nickel compounds used in conventional batteries.  The market for metallic lithium is now in excess of $1.0 billion according to independent industry sources and, we believe, steadily increasing.  There are a number of much larger and more established firms in the business of manufacturing metallic lithium.  It is our belief that utilizing our new patent pending process we would have a significant advantage in manufacturing costs over the existing companies in the field, although no assurance can be given.  This process has only been proven in the laboratory and will have its initial pilot production later in 2010.
 
 
Three Months Ended June 30, 2010 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2009
 
Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 consisted principally of maintaining our public company status.
 

Six Months Ended June 30, 2010 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2009
 
Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 consisted principally of maintaining our public company status.
 
Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was $58,993, compared to a loss of $71,812 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009.  We had no operations during either period and expenses consisted primarily of legal and accounting fees.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
As of June 30, 2010, we had negative working capital of $108,952, compared to negative working capital of $202,296, at June 30, 2009.

We do not have sufficient funds to continue our operating activities. Future operating activities are expected to be funded by loans from officers, directors and major shareholders, until we begin to raise capital from non-officers or non-directors or generate cash flows from operations.

 
10

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of the date of this report, we have not entered into any transactions with unconsolidated entities in which we have financial guarantees, subordinated retained interests, derivative instruments or other contingent arrangements that expose us to material continuing risks, contingent liabilities or any other obligations under a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides us with financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support.
 
Impact of Inflation
 
We believe that inflation has not had a material impact on our results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  We cannot assure you that future inflation will not have an adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition.
 
Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
The significant accounting policies that we believe are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results are as follows:
 
Consolidated Financial Statements
 
Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts our company and our wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
Our carrying values of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, loan payable, note payable and due to related party approximate their fair values because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires us 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Significant estimates had included those had related to valuation of accounts receivable, film costs and accrued expenses.
 
Intangible Assets
 
Intangible assets, consisting of a license for an exclusive, worldwide, transferable, perpetual license to use certain proprietary technology for the processing of lithium for use in batteries and other fields,  have been recorded at fair value and, as they have an indefinite life, will not be amortized.  The carrying value of the intangible assets will be evaluated by us for impairment at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicated that the carrying amount may be greater than its fair value.  If impaired, we will write down such impairment.  In addition, the useful life of the intangible assets will be evaluated by us at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the useful life may be definitive and we will commence amortization over such useful life.
 
We have evaluated the fair value of our intangible assets and determined that it exceeds the carrying value based on our knowledge of the potential use of the lithium that we plan to produce in the existing market. Although are at an early stage of bringing the lithium process to produce revenues and cannot fore cast revenues, we believe that the net cash flow to be derived from the lithium will exceed the carrying value.

 
11

 

Income (Loss) per Common Share
 
Basic net income (loss) per share was computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the basic weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share was computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by the weighted average number and any potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period.
 
Share-Based Compensation
 
We recognize compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees, directors and others based on the estimated fair values on the date of the grant. Options are valued using the Black-Scholes Option-Pricing Model using the market price of our common stock on the date of valuation, an expected dividend yield of zero, the remaining period or maturity date of the warrants and the expected volatility of our common stock.
 
Deferred Income Taxes
 
Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between financial statement and income tax reporting under the liability method, using expected tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.  A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not, that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
 
New Accounting Pronouncements
 
We do not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
 
ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not required.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2010, based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including its principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer or officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We have identified certain matters that constitute material weakness (as defined under the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 2) in our internal controls over financial reporting.  The material weaknesses that we have identified relate to the fact that that our overall financial reporting structure, internal accounting information systems and current staffing levels are not sufficient to support our financial reporting requirements. We are working to remedy our deficiency.
