MOMENTUM BIOFUELS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY (formerly Tonga Capital Corporation) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements As of March 31, 2008 (Unaudited) Note 1 - Organization and Nature of Operations Tonga Capital Corporation was incorporated on January 29, 1987 in and has been a non-operating entity classified as a shell company under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Momentum Biofuels, Inc. was incorporated in Texas on May 8, 2006 to begin biodiesel fuel production. On May 31, 2006 Tonga signed an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization with Momentum Biofuels, Inc. The shareholders of Momentum Biofuels, Inc. received 39,275,000 shares of common stock of Tonga in exchange for 39,275,000 shares of Momentum Biofuels, Inc. This transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger with Momentum Biofuels, Inc. being treated as the accounting acquirer. On October 10, 2007, at the Annual Shareholders' Meeting, the majority of the shareholders approved a resolution to change Tonga's name to Momentum Biofuels, Inc. (Momentum). Our business purpose is to manufacture high quality biodiesel fuel for sale to local distributors, jobbers, and state and local government fleets. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. Note 2--Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Momentum and its wholly- owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Our significant estimates primarily relate to the assessment of warrants and debt and equity transactions and the estimated lives and methods used in determining depreciation of fixed assets. Actual results could differ from those estimates. F-5 Recent Accounting Pronouncements Momentum does not expect that adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Note 3 - Going Concern In Momentum's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for 2007, the Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm includes an explanatory paragraph that describes substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Momentum's financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2008 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $10,064, 991 at March 31, 2008. Momentum's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to develop additional sources of capital and, ultimately, achieve profitable operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Note 4 - Concentration of Credit Risk During the first quarter of 2008, three customers accounted for 100% of Momentum's revenue. Momentum performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition. Momentum's accounts receivable are unsecured. At March 31, 2008, two customers accounted for 100% of accounts receivable. Note 5 - Inventories Inventory as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 consisted of the following: Description 2008 2007 ---- ---- Finished Goods $14,235 $ 20,662 Work-In-Process -0- -0- Raw Materials 4,803 36,097 --------- -------- Total $19,038 $ 56,759 ========= ======== F-6 Note 6 - Property and Equipment Property, plant and equipment as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 consisted of the following: Description 2008 2007 ---- ---- Plant $ 3,414,592 $ 3,414,592 Plant machinery and equipment 29,810 29,810 Office furniture and equipment 52,238 52,238 Computer software 3,220 3,220 Leasehold Improvements 33,624 33,624 --------------------- ------------------ Total Assets $ 3,533,484 $ 3,533,484 --------------------- ------------------ Accumulated Depreciation & Amortization (410,918) (280,074) --------------------- ------------------ $ 3,122,566 $ 3,253,410 ===================== ================== Depreciation expense for the three months ending March 31, 2008 was $130,844.

F-9 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS CAUTIONARY This Item 2 and the report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2008 may contain "forward-looking statements" regarding Momentum Biofuels, Inc. (the "Company" or "Momentum"). In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "could," "expects," "plans," "intends," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential" or "continue" or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements about our market opportunity, our strategies, competition, expected activities and expenditures as we pursue our business plan, and the adequacy of our available cash resources. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Actual results may differ materially from the predictions discussed in these forward-looking statements. Changes in the circumstances upon which we base our predictions and/or forward-looking statements could materially affect our actual results. Additional factors that could materially affect these forward-looking statements and/or predictions include, among other things: (1) our limited operating history; (2) our ability to pay down existing debt; (3) the Company's ability to obtain contracts with suppliers of raw materials (for the Company's production of biodiesel fuel) and distributors of the Company's biodiesel fuel product; (4) the risks inherent in the mutual performance of such supplier and distributor contracts (including the Company's production performance (5) the Company's ability to secure and retain management capable of managing growth; (6) the Company's ability to raise necessary financing to execute the Company's business plan; (7) potential litigation with our shareholders, creditors and/or former or current investors; (8) the Company's ability to comply with all applicable federal, state and local government and international rules and regulations; and (9) other factors over which we have little or no control. The independent registered public accounting firm's report on the Company's financial statements as of December 31, 2007, includes a "going concern" explanatory paragraph that describes substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to the factors prompting the explanatory paragraph are discussed below and also in Note 2 to the unaudited quarterly financial statements. PLAN OF OPERATIONS Momentum is a "pure play" biodiesel producer focused on servicing the U.S. Gulf Coast and in the future, international biodiesel markets. Momentum plans to manufacture high quality, low cost and socially responsible biodiesel fuels that complement and integrate with the existing diesel fuel supply chain. Biodiesel is a domestic, renewable fuel for use in diesel engines that is derived from natural vegetable oils and animal fats. Biodiesel contains no petroleum, but can be used in any concentration with petroleum-based diesel fuel in existing diesel engines without engine modification. Our initial plant in LaPorte, Texas, has been completed and is currently in limited production. The Company's initial focus will be on efficiently operating the La Porte plant at its planned capacity and on sales of our product. Our marketing strategy will focus on wholesale distribution to fuel jobbers, corporate fleets and government users. We will also use established alternative fuel brokers where appropriate. 1 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Results of Operations For The Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 Compared To The Three Months Ended March 31, 2007 The Company recognized revenue of $348,930 for the three months ending March 31, 2008 compared to no revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2007. The Company's revenues were from its activities in processing and sale of its biodiesel product. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company incurred cost of goods sold of $251,623, resulting in a gross profit of $97,307. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company incurred total expenses of $1,208,814 compared to $416,619 during the three months ended March 31, 2007. The increase of $792,195 is a result of the increased operations of the Company over the prior period. Total expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2008 included, $430,349 in plant expenses and $778,465 in general and administrative expenses. General and administrative expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2008 included $335,254 of stock compensation expense for stock options awarded to executives and key consultants. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company recognized a net loss of $1,112,735 compared with a net loss of $423,347 for the three months ending March 31, 2007. The increase of $689,388 was due primarily to increased expenses related to plant operations and the increase in general and administrative expenses, as discussed above. The net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2008, was $0.02 per share compared to a net loss per share of $0.01 for the three months ending March 31, 2007. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At March 31, 2008, the Company had $98,098 in cash and $3,218,077 in other assets with which to conduct its operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to carry out its business plan. Historically, our cash needs have been satisfied primarily through proceeds from private placements of our equity securities and debt instruments, but we cannot guarantee that such financing activities will be sufficient to fund our current and future projects and our ability to meet our cash and working capital needs. No commitments to provide additional funds have been made by management or other stockholders. Irrespective of whether the Company's cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet the Company's operational needs, the Company might seek to compensate providers of services by issuances of its common stock in lieu of cash. Net cash used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $453,182. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company used net cash of $468,710 in operating activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, net losses of $1,112,735 were adjusted for non-cash items that included $130,843 in depreciation and amortization expense and $335,254 in share based compensation. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, net losses of $423,347 were adjusted for the non-cash item of $6,352 in depreciation and amortization expense. During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company did not recognize any cash from its investing activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company used $614,544 from its investing activities. 2 Net cash used by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2008 was $225,891. During the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company received funds of $1,171,320 from its financing activities. On March 7, 2008, Momentum initiated a private placement of 8,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.40 per share During the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company sold 200,000 shares of its restricted common stock for cash of $80,000. The shares were sold for $0.40 per share. On January 11, 2008, the Company made final payment on the outstanding $400,000 promissory note held by Ultimate Investment Corp ("Ultimate"). The promissory note had an issue date of June 30, 2006 and had been accruing interest at a rate of 12% per annum, at the default rate. The final payment was $319,792, cash, including accrued interest of $3,901. Management will need to seek and obtain additional funding, via loans or private placements of stock, for future operations and to provide required working capital. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experiences and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The more significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company's financial statements include estimates as to the valuation of equity related instruments issued, and valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets. Our accounting policies are described in the notes to financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The more critical accounting policies are as described below. The Company believes that the following are some of the more significant accounting policies and methods used by the Company: revenue recognition; value of long-lived assets; inventories; and income taxes. REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company will recognize revenue when the product has been delivered to the customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. 3 INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost basis or market. Abnormal amounts of idle facility expenses, freight, handling costs, and wasted materials are recognized as current period charges. Fixed production overhead is allocated to the costs of conversion into inventories based on the normal capacity of the production facility. VALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors the Company considers important which could trigger an impairment review include negative projected operating performance by the Company and significant negative industry or economic trends. The Company does not believe that there has been any impairment to long-lived assets as of March 31, 2008. INCOME TAXES Momentum and its subsidiary file a consolidated federal tax return. Momentum uses the asset and liability method in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the tax rates expected to be in effect when the differences reverse. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is used to reduce deferred tax assets when uncertainty exists regarding their realization RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The Company has reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and the Company does not expect that the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK - NOT APPLICABLE ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Disclosures Controls and Procedures Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). As a result of this evaluation, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. Accordingly, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2007. 4 As required by SEC Rule 15d-15(b), our Chief Executive Officer carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 15d-14 as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings and to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic SEC filings is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as a result of the deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting discussed below. The material weakness identified in our annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007 was related to a lack of an accounting staff resulting in a lack of segregation of duties and accounting technical expertise necessary for an effective system of internal control. ITEM 4T. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES Management's Quarterly Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Management's assessment of the effectiveness of the registrant's internal control over financial reporting is as of the quarter ended March 31, 2008. Based on the evaluation, management concluded that there is a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. The material weakness relates to the monitoring and review of work performed by contracted accounting personnel in the preparation of audit and financial statements, footnotes and financial data provided to Momentum's registered public accounting firm in connection with the annual audit. Until October 2007, all of our financial reporting was carried out by our Chief Financial Officer, and we did not have an audit committee established until October 12, 2007. This lack of an accounting staff results in a lack of segregation of duties and accounting technical expertise necessary for an effective system of internal control. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, in ICFR such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by employees in the normal course of their assigned functions. Notwithstanding this material weakness, we believe that the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our consolidated financial position and results of operations as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. 5 Remediation of Material Weakness As discussed in Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, as of December 31, 2007, there were material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. We are in the process of analyzing our processes for all business units and the establishment of formal policies and procedures with necessary segregation of duties, which will establish mitigating controls to compensate for the risk due to lack of segregation of duties. In addition, we are evaluating the necessary steps to improve our controls over financial reporting and we are in the initial planning phase of upgrading, where possible, certain of our information technology systems impacting financial reporting. Through these steps, we believe we are addressing the deficiencies that affected our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 and March 31, 2008. However, the effectiveness of any system of internal controls is subject to inherent limitations and there can be no assurance that our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors. Because the remedial actions require hiring of additional personnel, upgrading certain of our information technology systems, and relying extensively on manual review and approval, the successful operation of these controls for at least several quarters may be required before management may be able to conclude that the material weakness has been remediated. The aggregate costs of remediation are unknown at this time. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2008, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. PART II--OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. In February 2008, Momentum received notice of its inclusion in a legal complaint filed against Vertex Energy by Purity Water Company of San Antonio in the Circuit Court of Mobile, Alabama. The complaint alleges that Vertex, the defendant, contracted with Purity Water, the plaintiff, to remove water from two million gallons of Biodiesel stored in Alabama. The complaint further alleges that Vertex engaged several other companies, including Momentum Biofuels, Inc., as subcontractors to service the contract. Momentum submitted an affidavit to the court on April 25, 2008, attesting that the Company had no contractual agreement with either the plaintiff or any of the other parties named in the complaint. Momentum has since been dismissed from the suit without prejudice by the presiding District Court in Mobile, Alabama. 6 ITEM 2.
