Under this registration process, the selling shareholders may, from time to time, offer and sell up to 5,282,559 shares of our common stock, as described in this prospectus, in one or more offerings. This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities the selling shareholders may offer. You should read this prospectus carefully before making an investment decision.
You may only rely on the information contained in this prospectus or that we have referred you to. We have not authorized anyone to provide you with additional or different information. This prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities other than the shares of our common stock offered by this prospectus. This prospectus does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any common stock in any circumstances or any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is not permitted. You should not assume that the information contained in this prospectus is accurate as of any date other than the date on the front cover of this prospectus regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus or any sale of our common stock. The rules of the SEC may require us to update this prospectus in the future.
NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regarding our company that include, but are not limited to, any projections of earnings, revenue or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new products, services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements or belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by us. Words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “potential,” “believes,” “seeks,” “hopes,” “estimates,” “should,” “may,” “will,” “with a view to” and variations of these words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict.
These forward-looking statements involve various risks and uncertainties. Although we believe our expectations expressed in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, our expectations may later be found to be incorrect. Our actual results could be materially different from our expectations. Important risks and factors that could cause our actual results to be materially different from our expectations are generally set forth in “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” “Our Business” and other sections in this prospectus. You should read this prospectus and the documents we refer to thoroughly with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from and worse than what we expect. Other sections of this prospectus include additional factors which could adversely impact our business and financial performance.
This prospectus contains statistical data we obtained from various publicly available government publications and industry-specific third party reports. Statistical data in these publications also include projections based on a number of assumptions. The markets for our products may not grow at the rate projected by market data, or at all. The failure of these markets to grow at the projected rates may have a material adverse effect on our business and the market price of our securities. In addition, the rapidly changing nature of our customers’ industries results in significant uncertainties in any projections or estimates relating to the growth prospects or future condition of our markets. Furthermore, if any one or more of the assumptions underlying the market data is later found to be incorrect, actual results may differ from the projections based on these assumptions. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
Unless otherwise indicated, information in this prospectus concerning economic conditions and our industry is based on information from independent industry analysts and publications, as well as our estimates. Except where otherwise noted, our estimates are derived from publicly available information released by third party sources, as well as data from our internal research, and are based on such data and our knowledge of our industry, which we believe to be reasonable. None of the independent industry publication market data cited in this prospectus was prepared on our or our affiliates’ behalf.
The forward-looking statements made in this prospectus relate only to events or information as of the date on which the statements are made in this prospectus. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date on which the statements are made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should read this prospectus and the documents we refer to in this prospectus and have filed as exhibits to this prospectus completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.
PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. It does not contain all of the information that you should consider before investing in our common stock. You should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the section entitled “Risk Factors” and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes. In this prospectus, unless otherwise noted, we refer to Omnitek Engineering Corp. as “Omnitek,” “our company,” the “company,” “we,” “us,” and “our.”
Our Company
Omnitek Engineering, Corp., a California Corporation, began operations on October 10, 2001, and was a spin-off from Nology Engineering, Inc., a manufacturer in the automotive aftermarket parts industry and the developer/manufacturer of the patented “HotWires” spark plug wires. We currently conduct our business activities at our offices at 1945 S. Rancho Santa Fe Road, San Marcos, California, 92078, which consists of approximately 12,000 square feet of industrial space.
On November 3, 2006, Omnitek acquired Pensare, Inc., via the merger of Pensare with and into Omnitek, which included related technology and a customer list in exchange for the issuance of 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Omnitek continued as the surviving corporation and the separate existence of Pensare ceased. The acquired technology is used on new engines and diesel-to-natural gas conversions.
We presently maintain our principal offices at 1945 S. Rancho Santa Fe Road, San Marcos, California 92078. Our telephone number is (760) 591-0089. Our corporate internet address is http://www.omnitekcorp.com. The reference to our website is an inactive textual reference only and is not a hyperlink. The contents of our website are not part of this prospectus, and you should not consider the contents of our website in making an investment decision with respect to our common stock.
Overview of our Business
Omnitek is in the alternative fuels engines industry. Omnitek develops and supplies new natural gas engines, advanced engine management systems for gaseous fuels, and is the manufacturer of a proprietary technology used to convert old or new diesel engines to operate on natural gas or propane. Omnitek products are available for both stationary applications (generator sets) and the global truck and bus markets, including light commercial vehicles, minibuses, heavy trucks and municipal buses.
As the price of crude oil remains high and the threat of global warming and air pollution remain a public concern, the search for cheaper cleaner burning alternative fuels has become more important. Natural gas has emerged as one solution to these challenges. Readily available in many countries from indigenous sources, natural gas is relatively inexpensive and clean burning when compared to gasoline or diesel. Worldwide, on average compressed natural gas (“CNG”) is 40% - 70% less than the cost of diesel per similar unit volume. The average CNG equivalent in the United States is currently priced more than 50% less than its diesel counterpart. Omnitek has developed a system to convert any existing diesel engine to an engine that will operate on natural gas at a cost lower than that required to purchase a new natural gas engine.
Every year thousands of diesel engines are rebuilt. The cost to convert a diesel engine to operate on natural gas using our conversion kit is an additional $6,000 to $8,000 to the cost of rebuilding depending on the size and power requirements of the engine. To the Company’s knowledge the only natural gas engines currently available from an OEM manufacturer in the United States is the 8.9 liter Cummins engine model ISL which costs in excess of $65,000 and the new Emissions Solutions Inc. engine available from Navistar which is $45,000. When local emission standards, or other conditions, require the use of a new engine, Omnitek can deliver complete new natural gas engines as well.
Registration of Shares; Private Placement
We are registering for resale 5,282,559 shares of our common stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of warrants as a result of the following transactions:
On December 14, 2011 we entered into an engagement agreement (the “Engagement Agreement”) with Merriman Capital, Inc., to act as our exclusive placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) in connection with an offering of the Company’s securities (the “Private Placement”). On April 9, 2012 (the “Closing Date”), pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement ”), the Company completed the closing of the Private Placement for total subscription proceeds of $5,516,762 through the issuance of (1) 2,602,246 shares of our common stock at a price of $2.12 per share (the “Purchased Shares”) and (2) five-year warrants (the “Investor Warrants”) exercisable into 2,602,246 shares of common stock (the “Investor Warrants Shares”) equal to 100% of the Purchased Shares at an exercise price of $3.88 per share to certain accredited investors (the “Investors”). The number of shares of common stock to be received upon the exercise of the Investor Warrants and the exercise price of the Investor Warrants are subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the common stock that occur after the Closing Date.
In connection with the Private Placement, we granted the Investors registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement dated as of the Closing Date (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), in which we agreed to register (1) 100% of the Purchased Shares; (2) all Investor Warrant Shares then issuable upon exercise of the Investor Warrants (assuming on such date the Investor Warrants are exercised in full without regard to any exercise limitations therein) and (3) any securities issued or then issuable upon any stock split, dividend or other distribution, recapitalization or similar event with respect to the foregoing (the “Registrable Securities”) on a registration statement or registration statements (the “Registration Statements”) to be initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within forty-five (45) calendar days after the Closing Date (the “Filing Date”) and use our best efforts to have it declared effective within 120 calendar days after the Closing Date or within such other applicable Effectiveness Date as provided in the Registration Rights Agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Engagement Agreement, for the Placement Agent’s service we paid a cash placement fee of $386,173, representing 7% of the aggregate purchase price paid by Investors that were placed in the Private Placement. Pursuant to the terms of the Engagement Agreement, the Company also issued to the Placement Agent at the Closing Date warrants to purchase the number of shares of common stock of the Company equal to 3% of the aggregate number of Purchased Shares (i.e. 78,067), which shall have the same terms, including exercise price and registration rights, as the Investor Warrants issued to Investors in the Private Placement (the “Placement Agent Warrants”)

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. Upon exercise of the Warrants we will receive $3.88 per share or such lower price as may result from the anti-dilution protection features of such warrants. However, in the event there is not a current and effective registration statement covering the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants at any time during the applicable exercise period, then such Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis, in which case we will receive no proceeds. Any proceeds from the exercise of such Warrants, if any, will be used for working capital.

Each warrant is exercisable for one share of Common Stock for a five-year period ending April 8, 2017. In the event that there is not an effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares issuable on exercise of the Warrants, the holders may be exercised on a cashless basis for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the fair market value of the common stock by (y) the fair market value of the common stock, pursuant to the warrant agreement. “Fair market value” is defined as the average of the closing prices for the five Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the date of exercise.

RISK FACTORS
Investment in our common stock involves significant risk. You should carefully consider the information described in the following risk factors, together with the other information appearing elsewhere in this prospectus, before making an investment decision regarding our common stock. If any of the events or circumstances described in these risks actually occur, our business, financial conditions, results of operations and future growth prospects would likely be materially and adversely affected. In these circumstances, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or a part of your investment in our common stock.
Risks Related to Our Business
The global economic crisis could result in decreases in customer spending
The Company operates in competitive and evolving markets locally, nationally and globally. These markets are subject to rapid technological change and changes in demand. In seeking market acceptance, the Company will encounter competition from many sources, including other well-established and dominant larger providers such as Bosch, Siemens, Cummings, Volvo and Mercedes. Many of these competitors have substantially greater financial, marketing and other resources than does Omnitek. The Company’s revenue could be materially adversely affected if it is unable to compete successfully with these other providers. The current economic climate has resulted in a decrease in customer spending, and the Company is facing more competition as a result.
There is uncertainty relating to the ability of the company to enforce its rights under the content partner agreements
Many of the partner agreements are with foreign entities and are governed by the laws of foreign jurisdictions. If a partner breaches a partner agreement, then the Company will incur the additional costs of determining its rights and obligations under the agreement, under applicable foreign laws, and enforcing the agreement in a foreign jurisdiction. Many of the jurisdictions to which partner agreements are subject do not have sophisticated and/or impartial legal systems and the Company may face practical difficulties in enforcing any of its rights in such jurisdictions. The Company may not be able to enforce such rights or may determine that it would be too costly to enforce such rights. In addition, some of the partner agreements contain arbitration provisions that govern disputes under the agreements and there is uncertainty with respect to the enforceability of such arbitration provisions under the laws of related foreign jurisdictions. If a dispute were to arise under a partner agreement and the related arbitration provision was not effective, then the Company would be exposed to the additional costs of settling the dispute through traditional legal avenues rather than through an arbitration process.
The Company may be subject to other third-party intellectual property rights claims
Companies in our industry often own large numbers of patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secrets and frequently enter into litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. As The Company faces increasing competition, the possibility of intellectual property rights claims against it grows. The Company’s technologies may not be able to withstand third-party claims or rights against their use. Intellectual property claims, whether having merit or otherwise, could be time consuming and expensive to litigate or settle and could divert management resources and attention. In addition, many of the Company’s agreements require the Company to indemnify them for third-party intellectual property infringement claims, which could increase the Company’s costs as a result of defending such claims and may require that the Company pay the damages if there were an adverse ruling in any such claims. If litigation is successfully brought by a third party against the Company in respect of intellectual property, the Company may be required to cease distributing or marketing certain products or obtain licenses from the holders of the intellectual property at material cost, redesign affected products in such a way as to avoid infringing intellectual property rights, any or all of which could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. If those intellectual property rights are held by a competitor, the Company may be unable to obtain the intellectual property at any price, which could also adversely affect the Company’s competitive position. An adverse determination could also prevent the Company from offering its products. Any of these results could harm the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company is subject to foreign business, political and economic disruption risks
The Company contracts with various entities from around the world. As a result, The Company is exposed to foreign business, political and economic risks, which could adversely affect the Company’s financial position and results of operations, including:
·
|
difficulties in managing partner relationships from outside of a partner’s jurisdiction;
|
·
|
political and economic instability;
|
·
|
less developed infrastructures in newly industrializing countries;
|
·
|
susceptibility to business interruption in foreign areas due to war, terrorist attacks, medical epidemics, changes in political regimes, and general interest rate and currency instability;
|
·
|
exposure to possible litigation or claims in foreign jurisdictions; and,
|
·
|
competition from foreign-based providers and the existence of protectionist laws and business practices that favor such providers.
|
Early stage of the Company and its products
The Company has generated limited revenue from operations, and may not generate any significant or sufficient revenue from its current operations to continue future operations. A very limited number of Company products are currently in the marketplace. However, to achieve profitable operations, the Company, alone or with others, must successfully initiate and maintain sales and distribution of its products. The time frame necessary to achieve market success for any individual product is uncertain. There can be no assurance that the Company's efforts will be successful, that any of the Company's products will prove to meet the anticipated levels of approval or effectiveness, or that the Company will be able to obtain and sustain customer as well as distribution approval.
The Company’s results can also be affected by the ability of competition to introduce new products that have advantageous technology or the competition's ability to adjust its pricing to reduce our competitive advantage. Results will also be affected by strategic decisions made by the management regarding product volume, mix, and timing of orders received during operations. See “Description of Business.”
Uncertainty of future profitability
The Company will require the commitment of substantial resources to increase its advertising, marketing and distribution of its existing products. While the Company believes that the additional advertising, marketing and distribution will further enhance the Company's profitability, there can be no assurance the Company's products will meet the expectations and effectiveness required to be competitive in its market place, that the Company will enter into arrangements for commercialization, market its products successfully, or achieve customer acceptance.
Future capital requirements; uncertainty of future funding
Substantial expenditures will be required to enable the Company to conduct existing product research, manufacturing, marketing and distribution of its products and Intellectual Property. The Company may need to raise additional capital to facilitate growth and support its long-term manufacturing, and marketing programs. The Company has no established bank-financing arrangements and until the Company has sufficient assets, capital, and inventory or accounts receivable, it is not anticipated that the Company will secure any bank financing in the near future. Therefore, it is likely that the Company may need to seek additional financing through subsequent future public or private sales of its securities, including equity securities. The Company may also seek funding for the manufacturing, and marketing of its products through strategic partnerships and other arrangements with corporate partners. There can be no assurance, however, that such collaborative arrangements or additional funds will be available when needed, or on terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. Any such additional financing may result in significant dilution to existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available, the Company may be required to curtail one or more of its programs. The Company's future cash requirements will be affected by the revenue generated from the sale of its products, the costs of production and marketing, as well as relationships with corporate partners, changes in the focus and direction of the Company's programs, competitive and technological advances, and other factors.
Dependence on others; manufacturing capabilities and limited distribution capabilities
An important element of the Company's strategy for the marketing and release of its products is to enter into various arrangements with distribution and retail partners. The success and commercialization of the Company's products will be dependent, in part, upon the Company's ability to enter into such arrangements and upon the ability of these third parties to perform their responsibilities. Although the Company believes that parties to any such arrangements would have an economic motivation to succeed in performing their contractual responsibilities, the amount and timing of resources to be devoted to these activities may not be within the control of the Company. There can be no assurance that any such arrangements will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, if any at all, and that such parties will perform their obligations as expected, or that any revenue will be derived from such arrangements. If the Company is not able to enter into such arrangements, it could encounter delays in introducing its products into the market. See “Business.”
The Company plans to assemble its product line in-house after receiving components from outside vendors. Other products or components for future products may be produced or manufactured by outside companies for the Company. Therefore, the Company may be dependent on contract manufacturers for the production and manufacturing of certain products or components for products. In the event that the company is unable to obtain or retain the necessary manufacturers for components or products on acceptable terms, it may not be able to continue to commercialize and market its products as planned. The manufacture of the Company's products will be subject to current good manufacturing practices (“GMP”) requirements prescribed by the Company in order to meet the specifications and other standards prescribed by the Company to satisfy the anticipated and appropriate levels of operations and effectiveness when in use. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to i) obtain adequate supplies of its products in a timely fashion at acceptable quality and prices, ii) enter into arrangements for the manufacture of its products with manufacturers whose facilities and procedures comply with the Company's GMP or other regulatory requirements, should any such regulatory requirements arise, iii) or that manufacturers will continue to comply with such standards, or iv) that such manufacturers will be able to adequately supply the Company with its product needs. The Company's dependence upon others for the manufacture of its proposed products may adversely affect the Company's ability to develop and deliver products on a timely and competitive basis.
In addition, the Company does not now have, nor does it have current plans to acquire or obtain, the facilities, or personnel necessary to conduct its own full-scale distribution of its products. Consequently, the Company will have to rely on existing commercial distribution channels for the sale of its products. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure sufficient distribution of any of its products on acceptable terms.
Approximately seven customers accounted for 65% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2011, and loss of any of these customers could adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, and profitability
These customers are free to purchase conversion kits and new natural gas engines from our competitors who may have more established distribution channels and other competitive advantages, such as price. In addition, our customers’ need for our conversion kits and new natural gas engines depends on the worldwide and regional fuel prices, and the various governmental regulations. If any of the latter factors change significantly, our customers’ demand for our products might decline substantially.
The loss of any of these customers would be expected to have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. At the minimum, it would have a materially adverse effect on our operations during the short-term until we are able to generate replacement customers. For more information about dependence on a few major customers, please see “Description of Business - Dependence on One or Few Major Customers.”
Dependence on a limited number of qualified suppliers of components and equipment could lead to delays, lost revenue or increased costs.
Our future operating results may depend substantially on our suppliers’ ability to supply us with components in sufficient volumes to meet our production requirements. Some components that we use are available from only a single or limited number of qualified suppliers. If there is a significant simultaneous upswing in demand for such a component from several high volume industries resulting in a supply reduction, if a component is otherwise in short supply, or if a supplier has a quality issue with a component, we may experience delays or increased costs in obtaining that component. If we are unable to obtain sufficient quantities used in the components, or other necessary components, we may experience production delays which could cause us loss of revenue. If a component becomes unavailable, we could suffer significant loss of revenue. Each of the following could also significantly harm our operating results:
·
|
an unwillingness of a supplier to supply such components to us;
|
·
|
consolidation of key suppliers;
|
·
|
failure of a key supplier’s business process;
|
·
|
a key supplier’s or sub-supplier’s inability to access credit necessary to operate its business; or
|
·
|
failure of a key supplier to remain in business.
|
Risk of technological obsolescence and competition
The Company operates in an ever evolving field. Developments are expected to continue at a rapid pace in the industry in general. Competition from other large companies, joint ventures, research and academic institutions and others is intense and expected to increase. Many of these companies and institutions have substantially greater capital resources, research and development staffs and facilities than the Company, and many have substantially greater experience in conducting testing, manufacturing and marketing of products. These entities represent significant long-term competition for the Company. There can be no assurance that developments by others will not render the Company's technologies and future products obsolete or noncompetitive. In addition, the Company's competitors might succeed in developing or purchasing technologies and products that are more effective than those that are being developed by the Company or that would render the Company's technology and products obsolete or noncompetitive. See “Business – Competition.”
Dependence upon key personnel
The Company's success in developing marketable products and achieving a competitive position will depend, in part, on its ability to retain qualified engineers, management and marketing personnel and in particular, to retain the services of Werner Funk, whose services the Company is totally reliant on for the development of products for the Company. In the event of the death, incapacity or departure of Mr. Funk from the Company, it is unlikely that we would be able to continue conducting our business plan. Even if we are able to find additional personnel to replace Mr. Funk it is uncertain whether we could find someone who could develop our business along the lines described in this report. We will fail without Mr. Funk or an appropriate replacement. We have acquired “key–man” life insurance on the life of Mr. Funk naming the Company as the beneficiary however there is no guarantee that this policy would be adequate to allow the Company to continue to operate in the event Mr. Funk should be unable to continue in his current position due to death, incapacity or some other unforeseen event. Additionally, Janice Quigley provides financial management expertise to the Company. In the event of the death, incapacity or departure of Mrs. Quigley from the Company, the Company would suffer a material hardship until such time as an appropriate replacement can be hired.
The Company has Employment Agreements in place with Mr. Funk and Ms. Quigley that provides for continued service in their current capacities through November of 2012 and thereafter on a year to year basis. See “Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table” for details of Employment Agreements.
Changes of prices for products
While the prices of the Company's products are projected to be in line with those from market competitors, there can be no assurance that they will not decrease in the future. Competition may cause the Company to lower prices in the future. Moreover, it is difficult to raise prices even if internal costs increase.
Creditworthiness of distributors is an ongoing concern
The Company may not always be able to collect all of the funds owed to it by its distributors. Some distributors may experience financial difficulties which may adversely impact our collection of accounts receivable. We regularly review the collectability and creditworthiness of our distributors to determine an appropriate allowance for credit to such distributors. If our uncollectible accounts exceed that amount for which we have planned, this would adversely impact our operating results. The Company tries to minimize this concern by selling most of its products by way of prepaid purchase orders.
C Corporation tax status
The Company is presently a C Corporation under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. All items of income and loss of the Company are taxed first at the corporate level and any dividends distributed to shareholders are taxed at the shareholder level as well.
Limited current sales and marketing capability
Though the Company has key personnel with experience in sales, marketing and distribution to market its products, the Company must either retain and hire the necessary personnel to distribute and market its products or enter into collaborative arrangements or distribution agreements with third parties who will market such products or develop their own marketing and sales force with technical expertise and supporting distribution capability. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to retain or hire the personnel with sufficient experience and knowledge to distribute and market its products or be able to enter into collaborative or distribution arrangements or develop its own sales force, or that such sales and marketing efforts, including the efforts of the companies with which the Company has entered into collaborative agreements, will be successful.
We are an "emerging growth company," and we cannot be certain if the reduced reporting requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.
We are an "emerging growth company," as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, or the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We could be an emerging growth company for up to five years, although we could lose that status sooner if our revenues exceed $1 billion, if we issue more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in a three year period, or if the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any June 30 before that time, in which case we would no longer be an emerging growth company as of the following December 31. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.
Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected not to avail ourself of this exemption from new or revised accounting standards and, therefore, will be subject to the same new or revised accounting standards as other public companies that are not emerging growth companies.
We incur significant costs as a result of our operating as a public company and our management is required to devote substantial time to new compliance initiatives.
As a public company with substantial operations, we incur increased legal, accounting and other expenses. The costs of preparing and filing annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to shareholders is time-consuming and costly.
It will also be time-consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Certain members of our management have limited or no experience operating a company whose securities are listed on a national securities exchange or with the rules and reporting practices required by the federal securities laws and applicable to a publicly traded company. We will need to recruit, hire, train and retain additional financial reporting, internal control and other personnel in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.
If we fail to establish and maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately. Any inability to report and file our financial results accurately and timely could harm our business and adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.
We are required to establish and maintain internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures and to comply with other requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules promulgated by the SEC. At present, we have instituted internal controls, but it may take time to implement them fully as a newly public company. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, cannot guarantee that our internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all possible errors. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no system of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the possibility that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and subject to simple error or mistake. Furthermore, controls can be circumvented by individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more persons, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, a control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.
As a Smaller Reporting Company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we are exempt from Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting until such time as we cease being a Smaller Reporting Company.
Risks Related to Our Securities
Trading and limited market
At the present time, the Company’s common stock is traded on the OTCBB under the symbol OMTK.OB. There is currently a limited public market for the Common Stock and there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or, if one does develop, that it will be maintained. However, should such a market arise, the possibility or actual sale into the market of shares of the Company's Common Stock as permitted under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933 may adversely affect prevailing market prices, if any, for the Company's Common Stock and could impair the Company's ability to raise capital through the sale of its equity securities. In order to qualify for unrestricted resale of Common Stock under Rule 144, certain holding periods must be met and a legal opinion setting forth the exemption from registration must be provided. Further, there is no assurance that Rule 144 will be applicable to the Company and investors may not be able to rely on its provisions now or in the future. In addition, sales of significant amounts of Common Stock by the Company subsequent to this offering could have an adverse effect on the market price, if any, for the Company's securities.
No dividends
No cash dividends have been paid. Payment of dividends on the Common Stock is within the discretion of the Board of Directors, is subject to state law, and will depend upon the Company's earnings, if any, its capital requirements, financial condition and other relevant factors.
Possible volatility of stock price
The market price of the Company’s securities is likely to be highly volatile. Factors such as the market acceptance of the Company's products, success of distribution channels or its competitors, announcements of technological innovations or new commercial products by the Company or its competitors, developments in trademark, patent or other proprietary rights of the Company or its competitors, and fluctuations in the Company's operating results may have a significant effect on the market price of the Common Stock. In addition, the stock market has experienced and continues to experience extreme price and volume fluctuations which have affected the market price of many companies and which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. These broad market fluctuations, as well as general economic and political conditions, may adversely affect the market price, if a market develops, of the Common Stock. See “Description of Capital Stock.”
We are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which require us to incur audit fees and legal fees in connection with the preparation of such reports. These additional costs could reduce or eliminate our ability to earn a profit.
We are required to file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. In order to comply with these requirements, our independent registered public accounting firm has to review our financial statements on a quarterly basis and audit our financial statements on an annual basis. Moreover, our legal counsel will have to review and assist in the preparation of such reports. The costs charged by these professionals for such services cannot be accurately predicted at this time because factors such as the number and type of transactions that we engage in and the complexity of our reports cannot be determined at this time and will have a major affect on the amount of time to be spent by our auditors and attorneys. However, the incurrence of such costs will obviously be an expense to our operations and thus have a negative effect on our ability to meet our overhead requirements and earn a profit. We may be exposed to potential risks resulting from new requirements under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our common stock, if a market ever develops, could drop significantly.
Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended by SEC Release 33-8889 on February 1, 2008, we were required to include in our annual report our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the year ended December 31, 2011, and we have completed the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. As a Smaller Reporting Company we are exempt from Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting until such time as we cease being a Smaller Reporting Company. We expect to incur additional expenses and diversion of management’s time as a result of performing the system and process evaluation, testing and remediation.
We do not have a sufficient number of employees to segregate responsibilities and may be unable to afford increasing our staff or engaging outside consultants or professionals to overcome our lack of employees. During the course of our testing, we may identify other deficiencies that we may not be able to remediate in time to meet the deadline imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act for compliance with the requirements of Section 404. In addition, if we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Moreover, effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to help prevent financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our common stock, if a market ever develops, could drop significantly.
Management believes that these reporting obligations will increase the Company’s annual legal and accounting costs by an estimated $25,000 and $30,000, respectively.
Penny stock regulations
If the Company's stock is below $5.00 per share, or the Company does not have $2,000,000 in net tangible assets, or is not listed on an exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System, among other conditions, the Company's shares may be subject to a rule promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and institutional accredited investors. For transactions covered by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. Furthermore, if the price of the Company's stock is below $5.00, and does not meet the conditions set forth above, sales of the Company's stock in the secondary market will be subject to certain additional new rules promulgated by the SEC. These rules generally require, among other things, that brokers engaged in secondary trading of stock provide customers with written disclosure documents, monthly statements of the market value of penny stocks, disclosure of the bid and asked prices, and disclosure of the compensation to the broker-dealer and disclosure of the sales person working for the broker-dealer. These rules and regulations may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell the Company's securities, thereby limiting the liquidity of the Company's securities. They may also affect the ability of shareholders to resell their securities in the secondary market.
Future sales of shares of our common stock by our shareholders could cause our stock price to decline.
Future sales of shares of our common stock could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our stock. If our significant shareholders sell a large number of shares, or if we issue a large number of shares, the market price of our stock could decline. Moreover, the perception in the public market that shareholders might sell shares of our stock could depress the market for our shares. If such shareholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, such sales could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang,” in anticipation of which the market price of our common stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make it more difficult for us to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price we deem reasonable or appropriate.
We may issue additional shares of our common stock or debt securities to raise capital or complete acquisitions, which would reduce the equity interest of our shareholders.
Although we have no commitments as of the date of this prospectus to issue our securities, we may issue a substantial number of additional shares of our common stock or debt securities to complete a business combination or to raise capital. The issuance of additional shares of our common stock may significantly reduce the equity interest of our existing shareholders and adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock.
We will not receive any proceeds from sale of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders covered by this prospectus. All proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock offered under this prospectus will be for the account of the selling stockholders as described below in the sections entitled “Selling Stockholders” and “Plan of Distribution.” We have agreed to bear the expenses relating to the registration of the common stock for the selling stockholders.
To the extent the selling shareholders exercise for cash all of the warrants covering the 2,680,313 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of all of the warrants held by such selling shareholders, we would receive $10,554,814 from such exercises. The warrants may expire without having been exercised. Even if some or all of these warrants are exercised, we cannot predict when they will be exercised and when we would receive the proceeds. We intend to use any proceeds we receive upon exercise of the warrants for general working capital and other corporate purposes.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
The prices at which the shares or common stock covered by this prospectus may actually be sold will be determined by the prevailing public market price for shares of common stock, by negotiations between the selling security holders and buyers of our common stock in private transactions or as otherwise described in “Plan of Distribution.”
DILUTION
The selling stockholders are offering for resale common shares underlying the outstanding Warrants. To the extent such Warrants are exercised, existing shareholders will experience dilution to their ownership interests in Company. The resale of the shares of the current outstanding common stock under this prospectus will not dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders.
SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
This prospectus covers the resale by selling stockholders of up to 5,282,559 shares of common stock, comprised of (i) 2,602,246 shares of common stock held by 32 holders who were investors in our private placement, (ii) 2,602,246 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding Investor Warrants; and (iii) 78,067 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of Placement Agent Warrants.
The following table sets forth, as to each of the selling stockholders, the number of shares of our common and Warrants held of record as of May 14, 2012, assuming exercise of all of the warrants held by such selling stockholder on that date; the number of shares of our common stock being offered by such selling stockholder pursuant to this prospectus; and the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned upon completion of the offering and the percentage of beneficial ownership upon completion of the offering based upon 19,749,582 shares of our common stock outstanding as of May 14, 2012, assuming full exercise of all warrants held by the selling shareholders and outstanding on that date. The shares being offered hereby are being registered to permit public secondary trading, and the selling stockholders may offer all or part of the shares for resale from time to time. However, the selling stockholders are under no obligation to sell all or any portion of such shares nor are the selling stockholders obligated to sell any shares immediately upon effectiveness of this prospectus. All information with respect to share ownership has been furnished by the selling stockholders.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of Common Stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or quoted or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
· ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits Investors;
|
|
· block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
|
· purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
|
· an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
|
· privately negotiated transactions;
|
· to cover short sales made after the date that this Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission;
|
· broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
|
· a combination of any such methods of sale; and
|
· any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
|
The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. The Selling Stockholders do not expect these commissions and discounts to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
The Selling Stockholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the Shares owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell shares of Common Stock from time to time under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus.
Upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that any material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of Common Stock through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed, if required, pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing (i) the name of each such Selling Stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s), (ii) the number of shares involved, (iii) the price at which such the shares of Common Stock were sold, (iv)the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to such broker-dealer(s), where applicable, (v) that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, and (vi) other facts material to the transaction. In addition, upon the Company being notified in writing by a Selling Stockholder that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of Common Stock, a supplement to this prospectus will be filed if then required in accordance with applicable securities law.
The Selling Stockholders also may transfer the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Discounts, concessions, commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, that can be attributed to the sale of Shares will be paid by the Selling Stockholder and/or the purchasers. Each Selling Stockholder has represented and warranted to the Company that it acquired the securities subject to this registration statement in the ordinary course of such Selling Stockholder’s business and, at the time of its purchase of such securities such Selling Stockholder had no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute any such securities.
The Company has advised each Selling Stockholder that it may not use shares registered on this Registration Statement to cover short sales of Common Stock made prior to the date on which this Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission. If a Selling Stockholder uses this prospectus for any sale of the Common Stock, it will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders will be responsible to comply with the applicable provisions of the Securities Act and Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated, including, without limitation, Regulation M, as applicable to such Selling Stockholders in connection with resales of their respective shares under this Registration Statement.
The Company is required to pay all fees and expenses incident to the registration of the shares, but the Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Common Stock. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Common Stock
The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by holders of Common Stock. Subject to the preferences applicable to Preferred Stock outstanding at any time, the holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive such dividends and other distributions in cash, property or shares of stock of the Corporation as may be declared thereon by the Board of Directors from time to time out of assets or funds of the Corporation legally available therefore. The holders of Common Stock issued and outstanding have and possess the right to receive notice of shareholders’ meetings and to vote upon the election of directors or upon any other matter as to which approval of the outstanding shares of Common Stock or approval of the common shareholders is required or requested. Subject to the preferences applicable to Preferred Stock outstanding at any time, upon liquidation of the Company, the holders of Common Stock will share pro rata in the distribution of assets. Holders of Common Stock have no preemptive, conversion or redemption rights.
Preferred Stock
Our board of directors has the authority, within the limitations and restrictions in our amended articles of incorporation, to issue 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of any series, without further vote or action by the stockholders. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control without further action by the stockholders. The issuance of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock, including voting rights, of the holders of our common stock. In some circumstances, this issuance could have the effect of decreasing the market price of our common stock. We currently do not have plans to issue any shares of preferred stock.
Investor and Placement Agent Warrants
On April 9, 2012 at the closing of the Private Placement we issued five-year warrants (the “Investor Warrants”) exercisable into 2,602,246 shares of common stock equal to 100% of the Purchased Shares at an exercise price of $3.88 per share. The number of shares of common stock to be received upon the exercise of the Investor Warrants and the exercise price of the Investor Warrants are subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the common stock that occur after the Closing Date.
Merriman Capital, Inc., acted as our exclusive placement agent in connection with the Private Placement that closed on April 9, 2012. For the Placement Agent’s service we (i) paid a cash placement fee equal to 7% of the aggregate purchase price paid by Investors, and (ii) issued to the Placement Agent s five year warrant (the “Placement Agent Warrant”) to purchase 78,067 shares of common stock (3% of the aggregate number of shares purchased by the investors in the Private Placement), which have the same terms, including exercise price and registration rights, as the Investor Warrants issued to Investors in the Private Placement.
In this prospectus, we sometimes refer to the Investor Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants as the Warrants. The material terms and provisions of the Warrants are summarized below. This summary is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the form of Warrant included as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form 8-K that we filed on April 6, 2012. Prospective investors should carefully review the terms and provisions of the form of warrant for a complete description of the terms and conditions of the warrants.
Duration and Exercise Price of Warrants. The warrants offered hereby will entitle the Investors and Placement Agent to purchase up to an aggregate of 2,602,246 and 78,067 shares of our common stock, respectively, at an exercise price per share of $3.88. The warrants are exercisable for a period of five years expiring on April 8, 2017.
Exercisability. The warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice accompanied by payment in full for the number of shares of our common stock purchased upon such exercise (except in the case of a cashless exercise as discussed below).
Cashless Exercise. In the event there is not a current and effective registration statement covering the shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants at any time during the applicable exercise period, then such Warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis, for that number of shares of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the fair market value of the common stock by (y) the fair market value of the common stock, pursuant to the warrant agreement. “Fair market value” is defined as the average of the closing prices for the five Trading Days immediately prior to (but not including) the date of exercise.
Registration. We have agreed to file, on or before May 27, 2012, a registration statement under the Securities Act covering 2,602,246 shares of common stock sold to Investors in the Private Placement that closed April 9, 2012 and all the shares then issuable upon exercise of the Investor Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants (assuming on such date the Investor Warrants and Placement Agent Warrant are exercised in full without regard to any exercise limitations therein). We have further agreed that we will use reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective within 180 days following the closing of the Private Placement. In the event such registration statement is not declared effective by the SEC within such 180-day period, we have agreed to pay liquidated damages to each purchaser in the amount of 1% of such investors aggregate investment amount under the Private Placement for each 30-day period until the registration statement is declared effective, subject to an aggregate limit of 10% of such investor’s aggregate investment amount.
Transferability. Subject to applicable laws, warrants may be transferred at the option of the holder upon surrender of the warrants to us together with the appropriate instruments of transfer.
Adjustments. The exercise price of the warrants and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants are subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. If we issue shares of common stock or are deemed to have issued shares of common stock at an effective price less than the then-current exercise price of the warrant, the exercise price will be reduced to such effective price.
Listing. There is no established public trading market for the warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for listing of the warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system.
Fundamental Transactions. In the event of any fundamental transaction, as described in the warrant and generally including any merger with or into another entity, sale of all or substantially all of our assets, tender offer or exchange offer, or reclassification of our common stock, then the holder shall have the right thereafter to receive, upon exercise of the Warrants, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property as it would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of such fundamental transaction if the holder had been, immediately prior to such fundamental transaction, the owner of the number of shares then issuable upon exercise in full of the warrant.
Exercise Limitation. A holder may not exercise its warrants if, after giving effect to the exercise, the holder and certain related parties would beneficially own more than 9.99% of our common stock.
Right as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise provided in the warrant or by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of our common stock, the holders of the warrants do not have the rights or privileges of holders of our common stock, including any voting rights, until they exercise their warrants.

Principal Products or Services
Omnitek sells three main products at this time.
·
|
A conversion kit for converting a rich-burn natural gas engine to a lean-burn natural gas engine;
|
·
|
A conversion kit for converting a diesel engine to run on natural gas; and
|
·
|
New complete natural gas engines.
|
Conversion Kits (Rich-to-Lean Burn Natural Gas) - Omnitek offers conversion kits which convert rich burning natural gas engines to lean burning natural gas engines. The terms “rich-burn” and “lean-burn” refer to the air-to-fuel ratio under which an engine is operating. An engine which is operating under rich-burn conditions uses more fuel and is more polluting than an engine tuned to lean-burn. Therefore it is desirable to tune an engine to lean-burn, which supplies less fuel to the engine and reduces emissions.
Omnitek conversion kits are currently being used to convert rich-burn agricultural irrigation engines to lean-burn engines in the central valley of California. These conversions are being made by Omnitek Stationary Inc., an unaffiliated corporation, pursuant to an Exclusive Representation Agreement, previously filed as an attachment on Form 10 filed on April 27, 2010.
Conversion Kits (Diesel-to-Natural Gas) - Omnitek offers a solution to convert any diesel engine to operate on natural gas. This diesel-to-natural gas conversion kit is the primary product offered by Omnitek. This product is packaged in kit form and is offered in two basic variations. One is designed to work on engines with turbocharger and the other is designed to work on engines without turbocharger. Both kits are made up of over 20 individual components. In addition to the Conversion Kits, Omnitek also sells the individual component replacement parts for the conversion kits. The high-pressure natural gas filter is our top selling replacement part.
The key to our technology is a patented device and an electronic control unit which senses engine parameters in real time and instantly adjusts to deliver the correct amount of fuel and the correct ignition timing.
Omnitek does not perform installation of the conversion kits directly, but rather trains dealers and sub-dealers around the world to perform the conversions using the Omnitek Conversion Kits. It takes four to five days to train a dealer or sub-dealer to perform the conversion. Approximately ten dealers and sub-dealers have received training to date. Training sessions in the Company’s facilities cost approximately $500 each, training sessions in other Countries costs between $2,000 and $4000 each.
Any diesel engine can be converted by using one of our conversion kits, however, there is no assurance that diesel vehicle owners will elect to convert their diesel engines to operate on natural gas. Additionally, while the Company is not aware of any other complete conversion kits for heavy duty diesel engines being manufactured at this time, one could be developed by a competitor and there are no guarantees that the owners of the engines would choose the Omnitek kit to convert their engines.
New Natural Gas Engines - Under certain conditions it is not cost effective, or technologically feasible, to convert a diesel engine to operate on natural gas. Also there are times when local emission standards may dictate the use of highly sophisticated technology that cannot be easily retrofitted to an older engine. Under those conditions Omnitek can deliver new purpose built natural gas engines.
Omnitek is an original equipment manufacturer for several major engine producers and engine parts manufacturers including TEDOM Engine Co., TATA Motors of India.
The Company has the ability to sell and deliver its products anywhere in the world through Omnitek distributors, engine manufacturers, system integrators, fleet operators, engine conversion companies and directly to its end-users. The Company's conversion kits are currently being used to convert heavy-duty diesel engines to operate on natural gas and to date Omnitek has sold over 5,000 kits worldwide. The Company’s sales in these markets are all prepaid purchase order driven sales, and as such there are no ongoing written agreements in place. The Company's diesel-to-natural gas conversion technology has been successfully adapted to work with many different engine designs, and can meet both current and future emissions standards.
The majority of our markets can best be divided into two groups:
1. Countries not requiring compliance with emissions standards, or no standards are in place (therefore emissions certification is not necessary - shorter time to market); or,
2. Countries that require compliance with emissions standards (emissions certification is necessary - longer time to market and costly).
Our primary market to date has been those Countries not requiring compliance with emissions standards, or where there are no standards in place.
Additionally, within both of those two market groups above we can further segregate the marketplace into the following categories:
·
|
Countries that have to import diesel (crude oil) and natural gas; or,
|
·
|
Countries that have to import diesel (crude oil), but have their own supply of natural gas.
|
The governments of many countries with natural gas supplies mandate that businesses and government vehicles convert to use their domestic fuel supply. Probably the most widely known example of a mandate in the natural gas vehicle industry is the public bus system in Delhi, India, which is required to use compressed natural gas. This has resulted in more than 10,000 compressed natural gas buses on Delhi's roads and has been credited with making significant improvements to Delhi's air quality. The mandates in force in India are unusual, in the sense that they have been imposed by the Supreme Court of India, rather than as a result of Government policy. The Supreme Court decision arose from civil suits brought in relation to the right of citizens to breathe clean air. (http://www.iangv.org/policy.html)
Some governments offer incentives to convert the fleets currently running on diesel. In February 2006, the President of Peru made a declaration that affirmed relaxed financing laws to allow for easier access to conversion finance in relation to natural gas vehicles. (http://www.ngvglobal.com/peruvian-policy-favors-ngvs-0207)
Omnitek has in the past focused primarily on countries not requiring compliance with emissions standards and secondarily on countries requiring compliance with emissions standards. The designing and development of our primary products for sale in these markets is complete and no further expenditures in this regard are expected. When a customer asks to have a conversion kit developed for a specific engine, we are compensated in advance to do this. Regular and ongoing updates to our conversion kits and the component parts are paid for through cash flow.
However, recent legislative enactments in the US have led to a more favorable domestic regulatory environment which supports significant opportunities for our technology in the United States.
In 2011, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) announced new regulations applicable to certifying and converting diesel and gasoline engines to operate on natural gas. This was a milestone for the alternative fuel industry and a significant advancement in lessening dependence on foreign oil. Converting diesel engines to operate on either liquefied natural gas or compressed natural gas provides an economical and environmental solution to new engine replacement. This EPA amendment will now enable our company to certify and convert diesel engines in a cost-effective manner and introduce the technology to the U.S. market.
It is anticipated that Omnitek will develop 2 to 4 conversion kits for the US market every year, with the first two available in 2012. Each kit development and certification will cost approximately $125,000. The Omnitek technology has already been utilized outside the United States since 2001, with more than 5,000 engine conversions currently in operation.
Compressed natural gas provides significant advantages over diesel fuel, including reduced emissions, plentiful supplies and favorable economics. Industry observers believe that up to eight million heavy-duty vehicles in the U.S. could benefit from conversion to natural gas. Replacing old diesel trucks with new natural gas-powered trucks is certainly an option, but it is much more expensive.
When contacted we approach this issue of “converting or replacing” high-polluting diesel engines by offering two main options, which in large part are influenced by the level of technological capabilities within the country and financial feasibility.
The first option has us working with local companies in an effort to convert diesel engines to natural gas, or in the alternative we can supply new dedicated natural gas engines as a second option.
To achieve the conversions Omnitek will supply engineering support to rebuild the engines locally to our specifications. This offers an economic benefit to the local economy by keeping the rebuild work in the community. The engines are then equipped with our CNG fuel system, allowing for the engines to be tuned to meet any emission standard.
In the second scenario, Omnitek will supply a complete, low-polluting, alternative fuel engine in either a 4 or 6 cylinder configuration. This may be the better option when the existing engines are based on old and outdated technology or when strict emissions standards are in place.
Distribution Methods of the Products or Services
The Company currently has distributors in over 12 Countries which market and distribute its products. The Company is continuously seeking additional global distribution partners to expand its distribution network. The Company currently competes against other companies, both domestic and foreign, with greater resources, more established distribution channels and other competitive advantages, and the success of these competitors may harm our ability to generate revenues, please see the section entitled “Competition” below and also the relevant Risk Factors below.
Exclusive Representation Agreement. Omnitek enters into exclusive representation agreements with its distributors from time to time. It recently entered into one such relationship with Omnitek Stationary, Inc., a Texas corporation whereby the Company will be the exclusive supplier of technology to Omnitek Stationary who will service the Agricultural Irrigation Engine market and various power and utility companies. See below in “Patents, trademarks, licenses, franchises, concessions, royalty agreements or labor contracts”, including duration.
Additionally, we have entered the United States commercial truck marketplace with W.W. Engine & Supply, Inc., who is an exclusive dealer and authorized installation center for Omnitek products in Pennsylvania with ten locations statewide.
Internet. All of our product offerings are available online at our website, www.omnitekcorp.com, as well as information regarding new product introductions and company news.
Status of any publicly announced new product or service
On February 24, 2011, Omnitek appointed PT Bayu Buana Energy as a master distributor for the company’s products in Indonesia, with a particular focus on diesel-to natural gas conversion kit sales for truck, bus and power generator applications.
On July 7, 2011, Omnitek announce it had appointed D. Rampersad & Company Limited as the master distributor and exclusive installation center for the Company’s diesel-to-natural gas conversion kits in Trinidad & Tobago. The primary focus will be on the conversion of heavy duty trucks and buses, as well as conversions of power generators in industrial zones.
On July 13, 2011, Omnitek announced it had appointed Seraph Energy, LLC as the exclusive marketing agent for the Company’s diesel-to-natural gas conversion kits in Pennsylvania.
On September 19, 2011, Omnitek appointed W.W. Engine & Supply, Inc. as an Authorized Omnitek Installation Center for the Company’s Technology and Products, including the Omnitek Diesel-to-Natural Gas Engine Conversion Technology for a period of five years exclusively in Pennsylvania and non-exclusively to the rest of the United States.
On October 5, 2011, Omnitek signed a letter of intent with San Clemente California based Go Natural Gas to form a strategic alliance to facilitate diesel-to-natural gas truck engine conversions through turnkey programs and services.
Competitive business conditions and the Company’s competitive position in the industry and methods of competition
The Company believes that the products it has developed have many important advantages over the products of its competition, some of which are performance, ease of use and lower cost. Omnitek competes in only a small segment of the transportation and energy arena. Most of the multinational corporations do not offer a complete solution for the market the Company services. Omnitek believes that competition in these areas is principally based on the quality of the product in terms of performance, reliability, service, deliverability, and price. Because of the Company’s limited financial resources, Omnitek is at a competitive disadvantage with most other suppliers of competitive products and services.
Competition pertaining to Complete Kits for Conversion from Diesel-to-Natural Gas.
Several companies offer individual components that can be used on such engines, but these companies are not offering “complete kits.”
As of today, no direct competitors to the Omnitek’s Diesel-to-Natural Gas Conversion Technology for heavy-duty engines have emerged. Suppliers like Fuel Systems Solutions, Bosch and Keihin supply mainly original equipment engine manufacturers and do not offer systems to convert diesel engines and Cummins and ESI only offer new natural gas engines not engine conversions. The Company’s system can be programmed by the end user and can be used to convert gasoline or diesel engines to operate on natural gas.
There are numerous companies, such as BRC, Landirenzo, Tartarini, OMVL, Tomasetto, supplying natural gas components for use on gasoline cars and small trucks. These technologies have been on the market for many years and vehicles worldwide have been converted using these technologies. However, this technology is not suitable for heavy duty diesel engines, and is not in direct competition with Omnitek’s technology. At this time Omnitek is not planning to compete in the small engine market.
Competition pertaining to New Natural Gas Engines.
Under certain conditions it is not cost effective, or technologically feasible to convert a diesel engine to operate on natural gas. Emission standards sometimes dictate the use of highly sophisticated technology that cannot be easily retrofit onto an engine. Under those situations, Omnitek offers new alternative fuel engines which can be used in cars, trucks, generators and other stationary industrial engines. Omnitek can supply complete alternative fuel engines in 4 and 6 cylinder configurations and with up to 280 horsepower. These dedicated alternative fuel engines can be configured to meet all current emissions standards.
The Company believes that additional competitors will emerge as this market matures.
Sources and availability of raw materials and the names of the Principal Suppliers
The Company does not utilize any specialized raw materials. All necessary required materials, if any, are readily available. We rely on nonaffiliated suppliers for various standard and customized components and on manufacturers of assemblies that are incorporated into our products. We do not have long-term supply or manufacturing agreements with suppliers and manufacturers. In some instances alternative sources may be limited. If these suppliers or manufacturers experience financial, operational, manufacturing capacity, or quality assurance difficulties, or cease production and sale of such products, or if there is any other disruption in our relationships with these suppliers or manufacturers, we will be required to locate alternative sources of supply. Our inability to obtain sufficient quantities of these components, if and as required in the future, may subject us to:
·
|
delays in delivery or shortages in components that could interrupt and delay manufacturing and result in cancellations of orders for our products;
|
·
|
increased component prices and supply delays as we establish alternative suppliers; inability to develop alternative sources for product components;
|
·
|
required modifications of our products, which may cause delays in product shipments, increased manufacturing costs, and increased product prices; and,
|
·
|
increased inventory costs as we hold more inventory than we otherwise might in order to avoid problems from shortages or discontinuance, which may result in write-offs if we are unable to use all such products in the future.
|
During the year ended December 31, 2011, one supplier accounted for 20% of products purchased as opposed to the year ended December 31, 2010, where one supplier accounted for 15% of products purchased.
See Risk Factor “Dependence on a limited number of qualified suppliers of components and equipment could lead to delays, lost revenue or increased costs.”
Dependence on one or few major customers
The Company believes that the diversity of the product line offered alleviates the dependence on any customer. Through a widespread use of the Company's product line, the Company is striving to develop a wide base of customers. During the year ended December 31, 2011, seven customers accounted for approximately 65% of sales as opposed to the year ended December 31, 2010, where six customers accounted for approximately 60% of sales.

The protection of proprietary rights relating to the Company's products and expertise is critical for the Company's business. The Company intends to file additional patent applications for each product as it is developed to protect technology and improvements that are considered important to the development of its business. The Company also intends to rely upon trade secrets, know-how, continuing technological innovation and licensing opportunities to develop and maintain its competitive position.
Although the Company intends to seek patent protection for its proprietary technology and products in the United States and in foreign countries, the patent positions of products such as the Company’s, are generally uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions. Consequently, the Company does not know whether any of the patent applications that it has and will consider filing will result in the issuance of any patents, or whether they will be circumvented or invalidated. There can be no assurance that all United States patents that may pose a risk of infringement can or will be identified. Additionally, the Company has not sought to identify foreign patent applications that might affect existing patent applications currently on file with the Unites States Patent and Trademark Office. If the Company is unable to obtain licenses where it may have infringed on other patents, it could encounter delays in product market introductions while it attempts to design around such intellectual property rights, or could find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prevented. In addition, the Company could incur substantial costs in defending suits brought against it on such intellectual property rights or prosecuting suits, which the Company brings against other parties to protect its intellectual property rights. Competitors or potential competitors may have filed applications for, or have received patents and may obtain additional patents and proprietary rights relating to, compounds or processes competitive with those of the Company. See number 5 above, “Competitive business conditions and the Company’s competitive position in the industry and methods of competition.”
The Company intends to rely upon certain patented and unpatented trade secrets for a significant part of its intellectual property rights, and there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information and techniques, or otherwise gain access to the Company's trade secrets or disclose such technology, or that the Company can meaningfully protect its rights to its unpatented trade secrets. The Company intends to require each of its employees, consultants and advisors to execute confidentiality agreements either upon the commencement of an employment or consulting relationship with the Company or at a later time. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will provide meaningful protection for the Company's trade secrets in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure of such information.
The Company does not believe that any of its products or other proprietary rights infringe upon the rights of third parties. However, it cannot assure that others may not assert infringement claims against the Company in the future and recognize that any such assertion may require the Company to incur legal and other defense costs, enter into compromise royalty arrangements, or terminate the use of some technologies. Further, the Company may be required to incur legal and other costs to protect its proprietary rights against infringement by third parties.
Licenses and Royalty Agreements
The Company has not entered into any license and royalty agreements which have resulted in royalty payments.
The Company has entered into the following agreements:
PT Bayu Buana Energy - On February 24, 2011, Omnitek announced it had appointed PT Bayu Buana Energy as the master distributor for the Company’s products in Indonesia with a particular focus on diesel-to-natural gas conversion kits for truck, bus and power generator applications.
D. Rampersad & Company Limited - On July 7, 2011, Omnitek announce it had appointed D. Rampersad & Company Limited as the master distributor and exclusive installation center for the Company’s diesel-to-natural gas conversion kits in Trinidad & Tobago. The primary focus will be on the conversion of heavy duty trucks and buses, as well as conversions of power generators in industrial zones.
Seraph Energy, LLC – On July 13, 2011, Omnitek announced it had appointed Seraph Energy, LLC as the exclusive marketing agent for the Company’s diesel-to-natural gas conversion kits in Pennsylvania.
W.W. Engine & Supply, Inc. - On September 19, 2011, Omnitek appointed W.W. Engine & Supply, Inc. as an Authorized Omnitek Installation Center for the Company’s Technology and Products, including the Omnitek Diesel-to-Natural Gas Engine Conversion Technology for a period of five years exclusively in Pennsylvania and non-exclusively to the rest of the United States.
Go Natural Gas - On October 5, 2011, Omnitek signed a letter of intent with San Clemente California based Go Natural Gas to form a strategic alliance to facilitate diesel-to-natural gas truck engine conversions through turnkey programs and services.
Need of any governmental approval of principal products or services
The Company's products are presently sold to commercial users. The Company’s technology as applied in the United States is subject to approval from the US EPA as well as state agencies such as the California Air Resources Board (“CARB”). At this time, neither the EPA, nor CARB, has approved any of the Company’s principal products or services. As such, the Company currently does limited business in the United States. It is the intent of the Company to seek approval of any and all products with the appropriate governmental agencies if and when the costs justify the benefits which the Company will inure from such approval.
In 2011 the EPA announced new regulations applicable to certifying and converting diesel and gasoline engines to operate on natural gas. This was a milestone for the alternative fuel industry and a significant advancement in lessening dependence on foreign oil. This EPA amendment will now enable our company to certify and convert diesel engines in a cost-effective manner and introduce the technology to the U.S. market.
It is anticipated that Omnitek will develop 2 to 4 conversion kits for the US market every year, with the first two available in 2012. Each kit development and certification will cost approximately $125,000.
Effect of existing or probable governmental regulations on the business
See above for a discussion of EPA and CARB regulation.
The Company is subject to the requirements of Regulation 13A under the Exchange Act, which require us to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and current reports on Form 8-K, and all other obligations of the Exchange Act applicable to issuers with stock registered pursuant to Section 12(g). We are also subject to Regulation 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), which regulates proxy solicitations.
Management believes that these reporting obligations increase the Company’s annual legal and accounting costs by an estimated $25,000 and $30,000, respectively.
Other than as set forth above, the Company is not aware of any other governmental regulations now in existence or that may arise in the future that would have an effect on the business of the Company.
At this time, there are no other costs, borne by the Company or directly by the customer, associated with research and development.
Research and development expenditures for the last two fiscal years, 2011 and 2010, was $143,304 and $133,302 respectively, and were comprised of certain equipment, parts and the cost of personnel in the development of products and services.
In some cases, a foreign customer will send an engine to our location in California and pay to have a conversion kit developed for this specific engine and/or application. In this case we require an up-front payment from the customer of at least 50% of the development cost.
As was stated above, it is anticipated that Omnitek will develop 2 to 4 conversion kits for the US market every year, with the first two available in 2012. Each kit development and certification will cost approximately $125,000.
At this time, there are no other costs, borne by the Company or directly by the customer, associated with research and development.
Costs and effects of compliance with environmental laws
Except as discussed above, the Company’s business activities are not subject to any environmental laws nor does it anticipate that its future business activities will subject the Company to any environmental compliance regulations.
Number of total employees and number of full-time employees
As of the date of this report, the Company employs a total of 11 persons all of which are full time employees. These full time employees include, Werner Funk and Janice Quigley who are also officers and directors of the Company. We believe we have a good working relationship with our employees, who are not represented by a collective bargaining organization, and there exist no organized labor agreements or union agreements between the Company and any employees.
The Company is additionally outsourcing certain services that are not proprietary in nature. We intend to continue to use the services of independent consultants and contractors to perform various professional services. We believe that this use of third-party service providers will enhance our ability to contain general and administrative expenses.
The Company owns no real property and currently has a lease for its principal executive offices and related engineering and assembly facilities located in approximately 12,000 square feet of space at 1945 S. Rancho Santa Fe Road, San Marcos, California, 92078. We are currently on a year to year arrangement with our landlord under which we paid $124,892 in rent during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Currently the space is adequate for our needs, however as the Company enters the US market we will rapidly need to expand our facilities.
To the best of our knowledge, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or of which any of our property is the subject.

Results of Operations
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010
Revenues decreased to $1,546,723 in 2011 from $1,733,303 in 2010, a decrease of $186,580 or 11%.
Our cost of sales decreased to $793,293 in 2011 from $1,154,766 in 2010, a decrease of $361,473. Our gross margin was 49% in 2011 compared to 33% in 2010. We expect that our gross margin will continue in these ranges until our operations grow sufficiently to allow us to negotiate better pricing for our components.
Our operating expenses for 2011 were $1,194,042 compared to $1,726,352 in 2010, a decrease of $532,310 or 31%. General and administrative expense for 2011 was $980,228 as compared to $1,498,461 in 2010. The decrease is due primarily to the decrease in expense related to stock options issued for services of $208,706 in 2011 as compared to $25,625 in 2010. Major components of general and administrative expenses during 2011 were professional fees of $96,965, rent expense of $124,892, and salary and wages of $227,088. This compares to professional fees of $161,021, rent expense of $126,454 and salaries and wages of $208,329 during 2010. In 2010 professional fees were higher by approximately $64,056 due to legal, accounting and investor relations expenses incurred in connection with the filing of our registration statement with the SEC. Research and development outlays were increased to $143,304 in 2011 compared to $133,302 in 2010.
Our net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 was $441,555, compared to a net loss of $1,155,642 in 2010. The decrease loss was the result of lower professional fee expenditures, decreased option expense and cost cutting efforts.
Results for the twelve months reflect the impact of non-cash expenses, including the value of options and warrants granted in the amount of $208,706 and depreciation and amortization of $70,484. For the twelve month period a year earlier, non-cash expenses for the value of options and warrants granted were $637,813 and depreciation and amortization of $93,711.
We experienced an influx of orders late in the year 2011and will work through the backlog over the next several months. Due to lead time issues with suppliers, the orders could not be filled in 2011. As of the date of this report our open orders currently stand at $539,000.
For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011
Revenues decreased to $306,369 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $615,256 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of $308,887 or 50%. Revenues for the period ended March 31, 2011 were exceptionally high due to due rescheduling of orders by certain customers. We expect the sales for the remainder of 2012 to be on a par with or somewhat higher than 2011.
Our cost of sales decreased to $200,612 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $282,630 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of $82,018. Our gross margin was 34.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to 54 % in 2011. This was mainly due to the volume and mix of product that was shipped. We anticipate our margin being between 38% to 42% for the remainder of the year.
Our operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $267,674 compared to $313,715 in 2011, a decrease of $46,041 or 15%. General and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $237,323 as compared to $265,857 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease is due primarily to the decrease in expense related to stock options issued of $15,450 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to $69,451 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Major components of general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were professional fees of $48,253, rent expense of $33,376, and salary and wages of $88,914. This compares to professional fees of $27,561, rent expense of $30,998 and salaries and wages of $78,682 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. In the three months ended March 31, 2012 professional fees were higher by approximately $20,692 due to legal expenses incurred in connection with the private placement which closed on April 9, 2012. Research and development outlays were increased to $28,894 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $27,465 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.
Our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $163,125, ($0.01 per share) compared to a net profit of $18,111 ($0.00 per share) for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increased loss was the result of lower sales in the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2011.
Results for the three months ended March 31, 2012 reflect the impact of non-cash expenses, including the value of options and warrants granted in the amount of $15,450 and depreciation and amortization of $1,457. For the three month period a year earlier, non-cash expenses for the value of options and warrants granted were $69,452 and depreciation and amortization of $20,393.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Cash Requirements
We believe that we will have sufficient cash from operations to meet our operating requirements for the proximate 12 months.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010
At December 31, 2011, our current liabilities totaled $698,584 and our current assets totaled $1,125,989, resulting in positive working capital of $427,405 and a current ratio of 1.61. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, we received $284,500 of cash from the issuance of common stock and the exercise of warrants. We believe that through the collection of accounts receivable and the sale of inventory, in the normal course of business, we will meet our obligations on a timely basis and that our liquidity is sufficient for at least the next twelve months.
We have no firm commitments or obligations for capital expenditures. However, substantial discretionary expenditures will be required to enable us to conduct existing and planned product research, design, development, manufacturing, marketing and distribution of our products and Intellectual Property. We may need to raise additional capital to facilitate growth and support our long-term product development, manufacturing, and marketing programs. The Company has no established bank-financing arrangements and until we have sufficient assets, capital, and inventory or accounts receivable, it is not anticipated that we will secure any bank financing in the near future. Therefore, it is likely that we may need to seek additional financing through subsequent future public or private sales of our securities, including equity securities. We may also seek funding for the development, manufacturing, and marketing of our products through strategic partnerships and other arrangements with corporate partners. There can be no assurance, however, that such collaborative arrangements or additional funds will be available when needed, or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to curtail one or more of our research and development programs.
We have historically incurred significant losses which have resulted in a total accumulated deficit of $6,423,702 at December 31, 2011.
For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011
At March 31, 2012, our current liabilities totaled $851,013 and our current assets totaled $1,152,200, resulting in positive working capital of $301,187 and a current ratio of 1.35. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we received $20,000 of cash from the issuance of common stock and $40,000 from the borrowing of funds. We believe that through the collection of accounts receivable and the sale of inventory, in the normal course of business, we will meet our obligations on a timely basis and that our liquidity is sufficient for at least the next twelve months.
We have no firm commitments or obligations for capital expenditures. However, substantial discretionary expenditures will be required to enable us to conduct existing and planned product research, design, development, manufacturing, marketing and distribution of our products and Intellectual Property. We may need to raise additional capital to facilitate growth and support our long-term product development, manufacturing, and marketing programs. The Company has no established bank-financing arrangements and until we have sufficient assets, capital, and inventory or accounts receivable, it is not anticipated that we will secure any bank financing in the near future. Therefore, it is likely that we may need to seek additional financing through subsequent future public or private sales of our securities, including equity securities. We may also seek funding for the development, manufacturing, and marketing of our products through strategic partnerships and other arrangements with corporate partners. There can be no assurance, however, that such collaborative arrangements or additional funds will be available when needed, or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to curtail one or more of our research and development programs.
Operating Activities
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010
We have realized a negative cash flow from operations of $272,777 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 compared to a positive cash flow of $40,111 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2010.
Included in the net loss of $441,555 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 are non-cash expenses which are not a drain on our capital resources. During 2011, the expenses include the value of options and warrants granted in the amount of $208,706 and depreciation and amortization of $70,484. Excluding these non-cash amounts, our EBITDA for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 would have been a loss of $162,365.
For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011
We have realized a negative cash flow from operations of $43,264 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to a positive cash flow of $7,623 during the three months ended March 31, 2011.
Included in the net loss of $163,125 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2012 are non-cash expenses which are not a drain on our capital resources. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the expenses include the value of options and warrants granted in the amount of $15,450 and depreciation and amortization of $1,457. Excluding these non-cash amounts, our EBITDA for the twelve months ended March 31, 2012 would have been a loss of $146,218.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. 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 disclosure 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. Areas where significant estimates are required include the following:
Trade receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts.
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company’s inventory consists of finished goods and raw material. The Company identifies items in its inventory that have not been sold in a timely manner. Accordingly, the Company has established an allowance for the cost of such obsolete inventory.
The Company assesses the recoverability of its long lived assets annually and whenever circumstances would indicate that there may be an impairment. The Company compares the estimated undiscounted future cash flows to the carrying value of the long lived assets to determine if an impairment has occurred. In the event that an impairment has occurred, the Company recognizes the impairment immediately.
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets at currently enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized. The Company uses historical experience to determine the likely-hood of realization of deferred tax liabilities and assets.
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of new natural gas engines and components to convert existing diesel engines to natural gas engines. Revenue is recognized upon shipment of the products, and when collection is reasonably assured.
Accounting for Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes ("Topic 740"), which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets at currently enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Topic 740 provides guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company's financial statements. Topic 740 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements.
At the adoption date of November 1, 2007, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefit which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized.
The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2011, and March 31, 2012, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
The Company files an income tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the state of California. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2006.
At December 31, 2011, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $815,000 through 2031. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.
Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company's executive officers, directors and persons who own more than ten percent of the Company's Common Stock, to file initial reports of beneficial ownership on Form 3, changes in beneficial ownership on Form 4 and an annual statement of beneficial ownership on Form 5, with the SEC, and to furnish the Company with copies of all such forms that they have filed. Based solely on its review of the copies of such forms filed with the SEC electronically, received by the Company and representations from certain reporting persons, the Company believes that as of the date of this prospectus, all the officers, directors and more than 10% beneficial owners complied with the above described filing requirements.
Code of Ethics
Our board of directors has not adopted a code of ethics due to the fact that we presently only have two directors and we are in the development stage of our operations. We anticipate that we will adopt a code of ethics when we increase either the number of our directors and officers or the number of our employees.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Omnitek Engineering Corporation
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Omnitek Engineering Corporation as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related 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 audits 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 also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Omnitek Engineering Corporation as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. Accounting Methods
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has elected a December 31, year-end.
b. Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes 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.
c. Accounts Receivable
Trade receivables are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying troubled accounts and by using historical experience applied to an aging of accounts. Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.
d. Reclassification
Certain balances in the 2010 financial statements have been reclassified to be consistent with the 2011 presentation.
e. Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
The computations of basic loss per share of common stock are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period of the financial statements. The common stock equivalents were not included in the computation of the loss per share computation because they are anti-dilutive.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
f. Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are calculated on the straight-line method over the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from three to five years.
g. Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has evaluated recent accounting pronouncements and their adoption has not had or is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or financial statements.
h. Provision For Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes ("Topic 740"), which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets at currently enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Topic 740 provides guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company's financial statements. Topic 740 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements.
At the adoption date of November 1, 2007, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefit which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Company files an income tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the state of California. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2008.
The provision (benefit) for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 consists of the following:

At December 31, 2011, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $815,000 through 2031. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2011 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount. Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.

Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2011 and 2010
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
i. 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 disclosure 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.
j. Advertising
The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred. During the year ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company expensed $36,118 and $26,610, respectively.
k. Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of new engines for use with compressed natural gas and engine components to convert existing engines to compressed natural gas use. Revenue is recognized upon shipment of the products, and when collection is reasonably assured.
l. Concentration of Risks
Customers
During the year ended December 31, 2011, seven customers accounted for approximately 65% of sales.
For the year ended December 31, 2010, six customers accounted for approximately 60% of sales.
Suppliers
During the year ended December 31, 2011, one supplier accounted for 20% of products purchased. During the year ended December 31, 2010, one supplier accounted for 15% of products purchased.
m. Long – Lived Assets
The Company assesses the recoverability of its long lived assets annually and whenever circumstances would indicate that there may be an impairment. The Company compares the estimated undiscounted future cash flows to the carrying value of the long lived assets to determine if an impairment has occurred. In the event that an impairment has occurred, the Company will recognize the impairment immediately.
n. Research and Development
The Company expenses the costs of researching and developing its products during the period incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company incurred research and development expenses of $143,304 and $133,302, respectively.

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
o. Liquidity
Historically, the Company has incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $6,423,702 and total stockholders’ equity of $448,909. At December 31, 2011, the Company had current assets of $1,125,989, including cash and cash equivalents of $31,196, and current liabilities of $698,584, resulting in working capital of $427,405. For 2011, the Company reported a net loss of $441,555 and net cash used by operating activities of $272,777. Management believes that based on its operating plan, the projected sales for 2012, combined with funds available from its working capital will be sufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurance that operations and operating cash flows will continue at the current levels or improve in the near future. If the Company is unable to continue profitable operations and obtain positive operating cash flows, it may require additional funding or be forced to scale back its development plans or to significantly reduce or terminate operations.
p. Stock- Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock-based awards expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award based on their grant date fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes option pricing model which requires management to make estimates for certain assumptions regarding risk-free interest rate, expected life of options, expected volatility of stock and expected dividend yield of stock.
Note 3 - Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company’s inventory consists of finished goods and raw material and is located in San Marcos, California at December 31, 2011 and 2010 consisted of the following:

Note 11 – Subsequent Events
On February 15, 2012, the Company entered into a Revolving Line of Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Chachas Land Co., Inc., a Nevada Corporation (the “Lender”). Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company may borrow, from time to time, up to the principal amount of $50,000, for an initial term of six months which can be extended for an additional six months at the option of the Company pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement. The annual interest rate of the Credit Line is 9% with interest paid monthly on the then outstanding balance. The Credit Line is evidenced by a Revolving Line of Credit Note (“Note”). The Credit Agreement and Note are secured pursuant to the terms of a Stock Pledge Agreement, by common stock of the Company equal to two times the outstanding unpaid principal and accrued interest at any time, with the initial pledge of 100,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The Credit Agreement, Note and Stock Pledge Agreement contain customary events of default, including, among others, non-payment of principal and interest and in the event the Company is involved in certain insolvency proceedings. In the event of a default, all of the obligations of the Company under the Credit Line may be declared immediately due and payable.
Concurrently with the execution of the Credit Agreement, Note and Stock Pledge Agreement and as a financial accommodation for the extension of credit to the Company, the Company issued a Warrant to the Lender to purchase 5,000 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $2.68 per share. The Warrant is exercisable for a period of five years expiring on February 15, 2017.

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
March 31, 2012
Note 1 - Condensed Financial Statements
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at March 31, 2012, and for all periods presented herein, have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted.

The results of operations for the periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full years.
Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies
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 disclosure 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.

OMNITEK ENGINEERING CORP.
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
March 31, 2012
Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes ("Topic 740"), which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets at currently enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
Topic 740 provides guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company's financial statements. Topic 740 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements.
At the adoption date of November 1, 2007, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefit which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. The Company files an income tax return in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the state of California. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, and local, or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2008.
