Presentation of Interim Information

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Exousia Advanced Materials, Inc. and Consolidated Subsidiaries (“Exousia” or the “Company”) have been prepared by the Company without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted or condensed pursuant to such rules and regulations.  These statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.  In management’s opinion, these interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations for each of the periods presented.  The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results which can be expected for the entire year.

Note 2 - Notes Payable

In addition, as consideration for the loan, the Company issued 383,333 shares valued at the closing share price of $0.30 for a total value of $115,000. For the period ended June 30, 2009, the Company recorded the $115,000 in expense and accrued interest expense of $16,041, which is included in the note payable balance of $1,295,997.

On or about November 12, 2008, Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Filing Foreign Judgment in the 240th Judicial District Court of Fort Bend County, Texas bearing Cause Number 08-DCV-167838.

On or about February 6, 2009, Defendants J. Wayne Rodrigue and Exousia Advanced Materials, Inc. filed a Motion to Vacate Judgment alleging certain defects in the Judgment and the attempt to file the Judgment as a Foreign Judgment. The Company is continuing to investigate the matter, including investigating the possibility of an out-of-court settlement of the claim. At June 30, 2009, the Company accrued $125,778 in legal costs.

In January, 2007, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement under which the Company would acquire certain assets of The Little Trailer company, Inc., and Indiana Corporation. The Company has received notice from The Little Trailer Company, Inc. that it claims to be owed a ‘break-up fee’ of approximately One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) in connection with the alleged failure of Exousia to close the transaction. The Company disputes the claim of The Little Trailer Company, Inc., and intends to vigorously defend the claim and any lawsuit that may be initiated with respect thereto. At June 30, 2009, the Company accrued $100,000 in legal costs.

Note 4 - Equity Transactions

As of June 30, 2009, the Company had common shares issued and outstanding of 57,133,270 which 23,107,483 or 40% are owned directly or indirectly by officers and directors of the Company.

The following common stock transaction occurred during the six month period ended June 30, 2009:

·
740,571 shares issued for cash totaling $220,500 to accredited investors as part of a private placement with attached warrants of 740,571 with an exercise price range of $0.35 to $0.50 and a term of 30 months. The relative fair value of the common stock is $73,709 and the relative fair value of the warrants is $70,849.
·
5,474,833 shares issued for services valued at $1,591,261 based upon the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issue.

On April 7, 2009, the Company sold warrants to purchase 600,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.35 for a total value of $6,000. The warrants have a 30 month exercise period commencing on date of issuance.

On April 23, 2009, the Company sold warrants to purchase 562,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.48 for a total value of $5,625. The warrants have a 30 month exercise period commencing on date of issuance.

On May 15, 2009, the Company sold warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.60 for a total value of $3,000.  The warrants have a 30 month exercise period commencing on date of issuance.

Note 5 – Going Concern

The Company is subject to the risks associated with companies that lack working capital, operating resources and contracts, cash and ready access to the credit and equity markets. Without additional funding, the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company expects to obtain additional debt and equity financing from various sources in order to finance its operations and to grow through merger and acquisition opportunities. However, the Company is currently dependent upon external debt and cash flows have historically been insufficient for the Company’s cash needs. New debt or equity capital may contain provisions that could suppress future stock prices further, or cause significant dilution to current shareholders and increase the cost of doing business. In the event the Company is unable to obtain additional debt and equity financing, the Company may not be able to continue its operations.

8

Note 6 – Business Combination

On March 5, 2008 the Company acquired the assets of Aegeon, LLC (“Aegeon”) for a purchase price of $193,000 which was paid in cash at the close of this transaction. Aegeon primarily has focused on the manufacturing and distribution of industrial grade coatings. Certain notes and other liabilities due from Aegeon were not part of this transaction. This purchase has been accounted for as a business purchase pursuant to an evaluation by management of EITF 98-3. The transaction was evaluated and the Company believes that the historical cost of the assets acquired approximated fair market value given the current nature of the assets acquired. The fair value of the net assets acquired was $427,583 resulting in a bargain purchase of $234,583.   Pursuant to business combination accounting and specifically FASB statement 141 in a bargain purchase any shortfall of consideration is first netted against the long term assets acquired. Given that the fair value of any long term assets acquired was zero the in accordance with purchase accounting the next step would be to consider any contingent consideration. Since there was no contingent consideration in this transaction pursuant to purchase accounting the excess purchase price of $234,583 is treated as an extraordinary gain.

A breakdown of the purchase price is as follows:

Cash
  $ 37,787  
Accounts Receivable

Note 7– Segment Reporting

The Company manufactures and sells industrial coating applied to a variety of applications including Petrochemical Plants, Refineries and Oil and Gas Equipment. The Company has two operating segments, Domestic Industrial Coatings (marketed under the Aegeon Brand) and China Industrial Coatings (marketed under the power Shield Brand). Each segment operates independently, manufacturing and selling in their respective markets.

Net sales of each segment include end-user revenue from the sale of industrial coatings manufactured by the company. The costs included in each of the reportable segments’ operating results include the direct costs of the products sold to end-users and operating expenses managed by each reportable segment. Certain operating expenses managed by the Company’s selling and corporate functions, including all stock-based compensation expense, are not included in the reportable segment’s operating profit. As a result, reportable segment operating profit or loss is not representative of the operating profit or loss of the products in these reportable segments. Additionally, certain assets are managed by the Company’s corporate functions including corporate cash.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2009, total assets were $2,763,987 and $2,398,310 in current liabilities.  As of December 31, 2008, total assets were $2,817,723 and $1,129,905 in current liabilities. Our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 were $204,254 and $683,764, respectively.  The Company sustained losses of $3,339,574 and $5,873,989 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.   Cash used in operating activities was $1,405,704 and $1,653,941 for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Our financial statements are prepared using principles applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, we do not have significant cash or other material liquid assets, nor do we have an established source of revenue sufficient to cover our operating costs and to allow us to continue as a going concern.  We may, in the future, experience significant fluctuations in our results of operations.   If we are required to obtain additional debt and equity financing or our illiquidity could suppress the value and price of our shares if and when trading in those shares develops.  However, our future offerings of securities may not be undertaken, and if undertaken, may not be successful or the proceeds derived from these offerings may be less than anticipated and/or may be insufficient to fund operations and meet the needs of our business plan.  Our current working capital is not sufficient to cover expected cash requirements for 2008 or to bring us to a positive cash flow position.  It is possible that we will never become profitable and will not be able to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s two business segments, Industrial Coatings and RPA/Plastics had stunted growth in the second quarter due primarily to funding limitations.  As a result the focus was primarily on establishing an operational foundation that will allow it to move quickly when the anticipated funding options materialize.

RPA/Plastics

The company ended the second quarter preparing to launch its newest business unit, combining distribution of its RPA technology and family of resins with direct sales of finished products using the technology.  Headed by its Vice President of Sales, Exousia began implementation of this strategy in the second quarter and will continue to put the building blocks into place for full implementation of its distribution model.  Exousia’s  and Universal Forest Products announced an Exclusive Distribution Agreement aimed at marketing and selling Exousia Tuffcore panels which are manufactured using Exousia’s patented RPA Technology.  Management feels that the combination of this relationship and the proprietary nature of its TPV family of polymers, branded EXLAR™, gives it a timely opportunity to pursue distribution opportunities both domestically and internationally.  The cornerstone of this initiative is Exousia’s 6 formulations that offer a broad range of applications for general purpose TPVs and for applications where cold weather impact and weather ability are required.

The company has lined up 70 million pounds of manufacturing capacity earmarked to support this launch.  The company has been working with Chemtrusion for over 5 years and has continued to increase the strategic value of that relationship.  The ability of Chemtrusion to provide capacity, Quality Control, application development and lab services is paramount to the successful implementation of the distribution model.  The company can achieve the volumes without further capital expenditures thus leaving capital for working needs.

The distribution channels for plastics and engineered compounds are very mature and well understood.  There are several national and international distributors that have holes in their product mix that Exousia’s EXLAR TPV fills.  Management is currently working with these companies to secure distribution agreements with  the goal of  having  marketing materials and formulations completed in the 3rd quarter and the first distributors in place before the end of the 4th quarter.

Domestic Industrial Coatings

Since the acquisition of Aegeon approximately 1 ½ years ago the Company has instituted many changes and adjustments to the business plan and operations of that company. Included in these changes has been a redirection of focus, from simply tolling other’s products to development of a recognizable Aegeon brand. Management is bullish on its ability to re-position the company and extract value from the acquisition and expects the results of this repositioning to be demonstrable in the third quarter 2009. The company is targeting general maintenance coatings as the basis of the growth in the third quarter, and is confident that this exposure will lead to acceptance of Exousia’s line of high temperature coatings and other specialty products. In addition to the domestic growth that management is anticipating, there is also tremendous value resulting from the support of Exousia’s China operations with application development, technical support and innovation creation.

China Industrial Coatings

The company continues to be bullish about the coatings opportunities globally with so much discussions and actions geared to stimulating economies in the US and China where Exousia is strategically placed.

In the second quarter Tianjin Exousia Advanced Material’s facility in Tianjin, China became fully operational and has begun shipping coatings.  The first sales of coatings in China began in June when TEAM shipped a little over $25,000 of coatings to China United Construction Company. TEAM’s products and management team has developed a solid reputation with that company. Management is confident it is making significant progress toward achieving a share of the China market. To support this effort the company hired its first Technical Support and Services manager who is fully engaged and is assisting existing customers, e.g. China United while supporting the marketing efforts to grow the number of customers..  The management team in China is actively pursuing additional technical support personnel in an effort to have 6 to 8 field tested tech services persons by year’s end.  They will assist in application development, customer relations, spraying, etc.  Management believes that these hires will be instrumental in our execution efforts with our current customer base of NIG and Bohai.

In summary, Exousia has not been exempt from the world-wide economic slowdown which has delayed implementation of the Company’s business plan.  Exousia’s customer base has shown continued support and commitment for the remainder of 2009 and into 2010 and  while no one can be certain of timing and external conditions Exousia is positioned  to benefit from the stimulus plans and other measures for economic growth both in the U.S. and in other parts of the world

Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Market Risks

There are no material changes in the market risks faced by us from those reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Item 4 – Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2009, the Company's management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's system of disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act, Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, as of the date of their evaluation, for the purposes of recording, processing, summarizing and timely reporting material information required to be disclosed in reports filed by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

As of June 30, 2009, we did not maintain effective controls over financial statement disclosure.  Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that all disclosures required were originally addressed in our financial statements.   Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

1.
As of June 30, 2009, effective controls over the control environment were not maintained.  Specifically, a formally adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that governs to the Company’s employees, officers and directors was not in place.  Additionally, management has not developed and effectively communicated to its employees its accounting policies and procedures.  This has resulted in inconsistent practices.  Further, the Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-B.  Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness.
 
 
2.
As of June 30, 2009, effective controls over financial statement disclosure were not maintained.  Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that all disclosures required were originally addressed in our financial statements.   Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

 
3.
As of June 30, 2009, effective controls over equity transactions were not maintained.  Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that equity transactions were properly reflected. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting   

No change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2009, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
