1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Garb Oil & Power Corporation (the “Company”) is in the business of developing and marketing processes which will recover crumb rubber or other recyclable rubber, oil by-products, commercially marketable char and steel from scrap tires, a system and process to recover, repair and market truck tires of all sizes, market new tires imported for sale through Distributors and market processes which will utilize scrap tires and/or municipal waste to generate steam for the production of electricity. During 1999, the Company acquired certain assets from its sister corporation Garbalizer Machinery Corporation, including the rights to manufacture and sell Garbalizer tire shredders. The Company has designed a system that in its opinion is capable of recovering rubber from used large, off-the-road (OTR) tires. The Company has the rights to act as the non-United States agent for a third party’s unproven technology for the remediation of radioactive wastes and exclusive rights to build its plants in the United States and abroad.

The Company received revenues of $0 in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007 and at the end of the year its current liabilities exceeded its total assets by $2,421,710. The Company continues, as it has done in recent years, to actively pursue sales of its OTR Tire Disintegrator System, Garbalizer tire shredders and crumb rubber plants. These activities resulted in the sale and delivery of a shredder in June 2005. The Company has limited financial resources, and it may not be able to continue in business if it does not receive significant additional cash from operations or financing activities. The Company cannot give assurances that its plans to generate cash will be successful.

The Company’s predecessor, Garb-Oil Corporation, was incorporated and commenced business on September 11, 1972, under the laws of the State of Utah. The Company changed its name to Garb Oil & Power Corporation in 1985.

OTR Tire Processing System

The Company has designed a system known as the OTR Tire Disintegrator System which it believes will be capable of recovering used rubber from large, off-the-road (OTR) tires. The Company has substantially completed the engineering and design of the OTR Tire Disintegrator System, but to date has not constructed a commercially operating system. Currently the company is in discussions with a company, (INTERPIPE) located in the Ukraine, who has indicated an interest in completing the development of the OTR Tire Processing System for marketing in Eastern Europe. If an agreement is reached the Company would retain marketing rights for North America where the process would be marketed by the Company.

Although such discussions are underway there is no assurance that the discussions will result in an Agreement between the two companies or that the process would be successful if constructed by INTERPIPE. Due to INTERPIPE’S inability to secure funding from the Ukrainian Government to finance the OTR development the company cancelled negotiations with INTERPIPE and entered into an Agreement with Xingcheng Machinery of Xingcheng, China PRC to develop the OTR system. Development is currently underway and

is scheduled to have an operational Pilot Model in development stage by the first quarter of 2008.

 

Commercially available tire shredders, including shredders made by the Company, are designed to process standard automobile, truck tires and some OTR tires, which may include semi-trailer or over-the-road tires. Tires used in a variety of off the road equipment, such as graders, bulldozers, mining equipment, etc. cannot be processed directly by these shredders. Although these tires, which may weigh from 400 pounds to 9 tons each, are less numerous than standard tires, the Company estimates that over 2,600,000 tons of OTR tires of all sizes require disposal in the United States each year.

Current methods of disposal include land filling and surface disposal, which are accepted only due to the lack of a viable alternative. Most states have passed laws prohibiting land filling or storage of whole tires.

The OTR Tire Disintegrator System uses mechanical means to remove the exterior rubber from OTR tire carcasses without shredding. After removal of non-rubber components, primary shredding and wire separation, the resulting particles are then processed into crumb rubber during secondary processing. The shredded particles could also be used as fuel or safely disposed of in a landfill, although the Company believes that the rubber particles will be of such high quality that landfill disposal or use as fuel will be unnecessary or desirable.

The Company has prepared what it believes to be the final design of the OTR Tire Disintegrator System and has analyzed its expected performance. When the first OTR Tire Disintegrator System is built, it is expected that only slight modifications to the design could be required to maximize performance. It is also possible, although the Company does not anticipate this, that the OTR Tire Disintegrator System will not perform as planned when built.

The Company has received United States Patent No. 5,299,748 on the OTR Tire Disintegrator System design which expires April 5, 2011, Patent No. 5,590,838 which expires January 7, 2014 and patent number 6,015,105 which expires January 18, 2018. An additional patent improvement has been filed and is currently pending in the United States. The pending patent improvement was granted in Canada on July 6, 1999 as Canadian Patent No. 2,178,326 which expires March 23, 2015 and an additional patent is pending.

The Company announced the availability of the OTR Tire Disintegrator System in July, 1992. Although the Company has received and continues to receive numerous inquiries from potential buyers or users of the OTR Tire Disintegrator System, it has not built or sold an OTR Tire Disintegrator System. The Company’s original intent was to retain ownership of the OTR Tire Disintegrator System, allowing its use by persons who purchase an exclusive territory from the Company and who agree to pay the Company a share of any profits earned. However, the Company has decided to modify its requirements to allow others to purchase and use the technology and machinery on a license and royalty based upon gross sales.

Shredding Systems

On March 19, 1999 the Company acquired a patented shredding system from its sister company, Garbalizer Machinery Corporation (“GMC”). See “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions”. This system became available when GMC merged with a Canadian Internet company, changed its name to RecycleNet, Inc. and ceased its shredder business.

The Company acquired from GMC all of its then existing assets, including the Garbalizer name and logo, patents, machinery designs and contract rights in exchange for assumption of all then existing indebtedness of GMC in the approximate amount of $500,000.

The system known as the “Garbalizer Shredder” has a thirty-year history of shredding automobile and truck tires in the United States, Canada and Europe. During this period of time, GMC acquired fourteen U.S., and six foreign patents all of which have expired except U.S. patent number 4927088 which expires on May 22, 2007.

The Garbalizer Shredder employs a cutting method rather than the impact method embodied in hammer mills and grinders. This cutting method consists of a rotatable shaft or pair of shafts, supported by bearings, upon which are fixed a series of blade holders at

 

3

 

---

120(Degree) or 180(Degree) intervals around the shaft. The blade holders to which blades are attached are positioned along the length of the shaft so that their tips form a helix which tends to position the tires for cutting.

Spacers to which no cutting blades are attached are located between each blade holder mounted on the rotatable shaft so that the rotating blades and the spacers form the cutting mechanism of the Garbalizer Shredder when co-acting with stationary blade holders.

The shredding mechanism for all of the electric-driven models is protected by fluid couplings, torque limiting couplings and overload relays in the electrical control system. If non-shreddable material is encountered within the Garbalizer Shredders, the torque limiting or fluid coupling and relays stop the machines and protect the Garbalizer Shredders from serious damage. The rotatable shaft or shafts are driven by an electric motor or diesel electric system through a system of gear reducers. The diesel electric-driven mobile Garbalizer Shredder is protected from non-shreddable items by similar couplings and overload relays that stop the Garbalizer Shredder if it becomes overloaded or jammed. If this happens on any of the Garbalizer Shredders, it is simple to reverse the rotor and remove from the Garbalizer Shredder the item or items that jammed or stopped the machine. This, and several additional unique and beneficial features of the Garbalizer Shredder, reduces the time and effort required for maintenance.

In operation, material to be shredded is placed on a conveyor and carried to the top of the hopper where it falls by gravity upon the rotating blade or blades or can be fed directly into the cutters by a patented controlled feeding system. The rotating blades position the material and cut it as it is forced between the stationary blades. The shredded material is then transported away from the machine by conveyor to be used as tire derived fuel (TDF), crumb rubber production or other processes that use shredded tires.

The Garbalizer Shredders are offered in mobile and stationary models of various capacities.

The Company believes that acquisition of the Garbalizer Shredder system and related marketable items from GMC will benefit the Company by allowing it to quote complete recycling systems more economically and efficiently.

There are a number of companies that sell competitive products. The Company believes that the design of the Garbalizer Shredders is equivalent or superior to competitive designs. Some of the competitors are larger and better financed than the Company, and the Company believes certain competitors may have a competitive advantage on the sale of stand-alone shredders with respect to marketing prowess, financing terms, cost and perceived customer support.

Historically, GMC had determined that it could manufacture the Garbalizer Shredders more economically on a contract basis with local machine shops in lieu of its own manufacturing facilities and personnel. The company has now discovered that the shredders can be built much more economically outside of the United States and would give the company better advantage to compete with larger and better financed competitors. The Company has investigated this potential and decided that future shredders should be constructed outside of the United States to give the Company more flexibility in marketing.

During the third quarter of 2001 the Company began a new marketing strategy to market its products. The Company began, and is still continuing to establish distributorships in the United States and Internationally. As of June 30, 2007 the Company has established Distributorships in New Jersey with National Recycling Corporation that covers a three state area, New Jersey, New York and Delaware. A Distributorship has been established in Virginia with Minority Tire Reclamation, Inc. that covers Virginia, North Carolina and Maryland. The Company will continue searching for dependable Companies to establish Distributorships throughout all of North America. Internationally the Company has concluded an Agreement with Micron SA of Odessa, Ukraine to manufacture and market its Shredders and other Technology throughout Eastern and Western Europe. All Machines and Equipment for the European Market will be manufactured by Micron on a licensed basis and marketed jointly by Garb-Oil and Micron throughout the European market area. The Company has concluded a Distributorship with Representaciones Internacionales of Guadalajara, Mexico for all of South and Central America.

All machines, Equipment and Technology for the South and Central America Distributorship will be manufactured in Mexico on a license basis with the marketing being done jointly by Garb-Oil and Representaciones Internacionales. It is anticipated and planned that all items

---

sold by Garb-Oil Distributorships in the United States and Canada will be manufactured in Mexico. The Company has concluded a Distributorship with The Princeton Group of Alhambra, CA for all of Asia. Machines, Equipment and Technology for the Asian market area will be manufactured in China. Certain Technology and Machinery owned by the Chinese Manufacturer for crumb rubber processing will be manufactured in China and purchased by Garb-Oil to be sold in all of the marketing areas inside and outside of the Asian market area. Because of the NAFTA Agreement and other International Agreements currently existing, the Company is now able to establish these Distributorship agreements and contractually protect its technology and proprietary rights. These Agreements give the Company access to less expensive manufacturing and technology, which Management believes will make the Company more competitive and generate sales on a worldwide basis. As of June 30, 2007 the company management has determined that the company should take advantage of the benefits of such manufacturing and marketing in future Company operations.

The Garbalizer Shredder takes approximately four to five months to construct. It is manufactured and assembled from stock alloy steel, gear reducers, drive units and motors. Any heavy equipment machine shop with standard machine technology can manufacture the shaft, blade holders, blades, spacers, hopper, structural frame and supports for the Garbalizer Shredder from standard alloy steel stock. The gear reducer, bearings, electric motor and related drive components are standard items available from several suppliers. The completed components are assembled into major units for shipping to the installation site by sea, truck or railroad flat car. At the site, the major units can be field assembled with local construction or rigging workers who need have no previous experience with the Garbalizer Shredder. Location of the manufacturing facilities in close geographical proximity to the installation sites of potential customers, is not considered by management to be a significant factor.

Crumb Rubber Plants

The Company markets plants and equipment to process scrap passenger car and light truck tires into crumb rubber. The Company is marketing such plants worldwide on a “turn-key” basis. The equipment for such plants will include third party equipment, equipment made to the Company’s specifications, shredders and other items provided by the Company. The new marketing strategy currently being established by the Company has made available crumb rubber technology which heretofore was not available to the Company.

If the Company is successful in selling a crumb rubber plant, it will be exposed to the risks of process engineering and equipment manufacturing concerns, including potential contract, warranty and liability claims. The Company has limited experience in engineering for or constructing crumb rubber plants. The Company relies on third parties including engineers and sub-contractors for the supply of a majority of the equipment in the plant and the actual assembly and construction labor.

Trenergy Radioactive Waste Technology

On May 11, 1998, the Company entered into a Project Development and Construction Agreement with Trenergy Inc. (“Trenergy”). Pursuant to the Trenergy Agreement, the Company has been engaged to provide consulting and analysis regarding the potential commercial application of Trenergy’s unproven claimed technology to neutralize and remediate radioactive waste.

Trenergy has reported to the Company that the Trenergy technology has the potential of neutralizing radioactive waste. The Company has not verified Trenergy’s claims. If true, Trenergy’s technology would involve a substantial departure from current methodology and currently accepted scientific principles. Trenergy has informed the Company that it has applied for a patent on the Trenergy technology. Filing of a patent application does not indicate that any third party has verified the validity of the technology.

The Trenergy Agreement is for a five-year term with renewal provisions and gives the Company the right to build all systems and plants for Trenergy on a cost plus basis which cannot exceed similar costs for similar projects. The Company is designated as Trenergy’s exclusive agent to exploit the Trenergy technology outside of the United States with the exception of the Republic of Belarus, Ukraine, Romania, Macedonia, Greece and Hungary. Trenergy and the Company intend to equally share license revenues from potential licenses

of the Trenergy technology in the Company’s territory; provided that Trenergy may negotiate the Company’s compensation for licenses where Trenergy had initial discussions with the licensee. No licenses for the Trenergy technology have been granted as of the date of this report and it is possible such licenses may not be granted in the future.

Trenergy may not be able to establish the scientific validity or commercial viability of the Trenergy technology. Neither Trenergy nor the Company have the resources necessary to develop or evaluate the Trenergy technology without infusion of substantial capital or the joint venturing with third parties. Neither Trenergy nor the Company have any such arrangements in place. The Company plans to use management time and financial resources pursuing possible transactions with the Trenergy technology for which the Company may receive no revenue. During the years 1998, 1999 and 2000 Trenergy had continued research on the process but at June 30, 2001 had not completed the “hot test” which would further prove if the process could be viable. As of June 30, 2007 the “hot test” had not been completed by Trenergy and is unable to complete it’s testing due to lack of funds, and the Agreement the company had with Trenergy has expired.

UTTI Tire Repair and Resale Business

The Company’s efforts have historically focused on reducing the environmental problems of disposing of used tires by creating fuel, power or useful by-products from the tires. Although such efforts have not resulted in commercial operations, the Company’s management has gained extensive knowledge of the used tire distribution and disposal business through such efforts. On May 20, 1994 the Company formed Utah Truck Tires, Inc. (“UTTI”) as a majority owned subsidiary to exploit the perceived demand for repaired and retreaded commercial truck tires. Although UTTI did demonstrate that there was a demand for these used tires, UTTI incurred operating losses due principally to overhead costs and high carcass costs. The Company believes that the repair and resale business could be commercially viable if operated in conjunction with a recycling plant, where overhead costs can be shared with other operations and usable carcasses obtained at relatively low cost. In 1996, UTTI ceased active operations and as of June 30, 2002 both the Company and UTTI have decided that future operations for UTTI probably would not be re-started

The Company is proposing to establish used tire processing and sales joint ventures with purchasers of tire shredders or OTR Tire Disintegrator Systems in the United States, to date the Company does not have any agreements to establish such joint ventures. As with any start-up operation, there is substantial uncertainty regarding its ability to operate at a profit.

The Company owns 55% of UTTI, which interest it received in exchange for guaranteeing the loan for startup capital, its expertise and other intangible capital contributions. The remaining 45% of UTTI is owned by an investor who loaned $165,000 of seed capital to UTTI and who is an officer and director of UTTI.

Co-generation and Electrical Power Generation

Since 1982, the Company has been involved in planning and preparation for plants generating electricity or process steam to be fueled by scrap tires. The Company may build such plants alone or in joint venture with others. During the past fiscal year, the Company has concentrated its efforts on other aspects of its business and has held only very preliminary discussions regarding the possibility of construction of such plants. To date the Company has not built a plant. However, with the current and projected acute energy shortage, management now believes that this technology is timely and has an improved potential for development.

The design, which the Company developed for these plants calls for scrap tires to be shredded into hand sized pieces. The shredded tires are then burned in a fluidized bed combustor to produce steam, which may be used for the generation of electricity or may be used as process steam in nearby industrial plants.

Pyrolysis

The pyrolysis patents granted the Company has expired and the Company has decided at this time no further research would be warranted. The Company concluded that although the process worked the markets for such plants are financially unfeasible at this time.

Patents, Trademarks and Proprietary Data

The Company has received two United States patents on the OTR Tire Disintegrator System design. The patents expire in the year 2011, 2014 and 2018. One patent has been issued in Canada that expires in 2015. Additional patents are pending in the United States and Canada.

The Company does not hold patents on the plant and process to be used in connection with its proposed electricity, co-generation plants or nuclear remediation.

In connection with the Garbalizer Shredder design, the Company owns United States patent number 4,927,088 that expired May 22, 2007 and Canadian patent number 1,137,949 that expired December 21, 1999.

In addition to the above patents, the Company has the following patents which relate to Tar Sand development:

Process

The Company plans to exploit these patents if and when the board of directors of the Company determines that the financing and timing is appropriate. It is not expected that such exploitation will occur in the foreseeable future and accordingly the patents have not been considered important to the Company’s immediate future.

Employees

The Company’s CEO and CFO, John C. Brewer, and its Chief Engineer each devote 40 hours, or more, per week to the Company’s business, as well as one additional engineer. All additional work is performed on a sub-contract basis. UTTI currently has no employees and has no plans to hire employees in the foreseeable future.

Additional personnel will be required when the Company expands its business or enters into agreements for construction of power plants, crumb rubber and OTR plants. The Company does not anticipate problems in finding suitable additional personnel.

The Company believes its relationship with its employees to be good.

The Company is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement.

Research and Development

During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company has not expended any funds on research and development activities.

Environmental Regulation

Neither the Company nor UTTI believe that any of its activities result in harmful discharge of pollutants in the air, water or soil.

Any power plants built by the Company in the future utilizing tires as fuel will be required to comply with state and federal regulations regarding the discharge of pollutants into the atmosphere. The Company believes that the plants can comply with such regulations.

 

2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The Company’s executive offices are located at 1588 South Main Street under a five year lease. The offices consist of approximately 2,400 square feet. The premises are being leased from Utah Automobile Dealers Association, an unrelated third party, on a monthly basis. UTTI leases space in Salt Lake City from a third party to store its equipment and inventory pursuant to a month-to-month lease.

5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS

The Company’s common stock is traded in the over-the-counter market. The representative bid and asked quotations are posted on the National Association of Securities Dealers OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol GARB. On August 2, 2002 there were approximately 568 holders of record of the common stock of the Company and the Company believes there were approximately 1,000 beneficial owners.

During the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the stock was only sporadically traded. The following table sets forth the range of high and low representative bid quotations for the periods indicated.

 

 

 

 

 

The foregoing over-the-counter quotations are inter-dealer quotations without retail mark-ups, mark-downs or commissions and may not represent actual transactions.

Dividends

No cash dividends have been paid by the Company in the past, and dividends are not contemplated in the foreseeable future. Utah law currently prohibits the payment of dividends since the Company’s liabilities exceed its assets. Dividends will be dependent directly upon the earnings of the Company, financial needs, and other similar unpredictable factors. For the foreseeable future, it is anticipated that any earnings that may be generated from the operations of the Company will be used to finance the operations of the Company and dividends will not be declared for shareholders. The Company is not subject to any contractual restrictions on the payment of dividends.

Sales of Unregistered Securities

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, 500,000 shares were issued for cash and 27,316 shares were issued in payment of accounts payable by the Company.

6. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

Management is pursuing avenues of generating cash or revenues during the next twelve months. The Company is pursuing sales of the crumb rubber plants on which the Company would earn a commission. The Company is also attempting to interest purchasers, or potential purchasers, of Garbalizer shredders in establishing used and new tire marketing joint ventures. The Company continues to pursue the licensing or leasing of the OTR Tire Disintegrator System. The Company is exploring the synergies of its businesses - such as offering to joint venture a UTTI-type operation with the purchaser of a crumb rubber plant. Management also believes that with the new marketing strategies that are now implemented the potential for machinery sales has increased. The Company is now in the process of marketing commodities imported from China through its Minority Distributor,

 

8

 

---

Lone Willow, LLP of Virginia. The Company has submitted quotes for dry wall, cement and other building materials to Lone Willow which Lone Willow will market to users of such materials in the Eastern, North Eastern and South Eastern United States. Because of its Minority status Lone Willow has an opportunity to achieve a favorable position for sales to contractors involved in rebuilding in Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and other areas. Additional building materials and other commodities are available to the Company from China if the Company and Its Distributor are successful in marketing the commodities. If any of such possible transactions occur, management believes that the Company would have sufficient resources to operate for the next twelve months. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain cash flow from operations or to obtain additional financing. If these are not available to the Company, the Company may not be able to continue operations. While management remains hopeful that one or more transactions will proceed, no assurances can be expressed as to the Company’s continuing viability in the absence of revenues. Substantially all of the Company’s existing liabilities, other than trade payables and deferred revenue, are owed to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, John Brewer or other shareholders of the Company. Current funding has come from operations and sales and the Company is currently in negotiations with several investment sources for equity investment in the company, which if successful, will satisfy long-term operations and capital expenditures. There are no guarantees that such negotiations will be successful.

Operating expenses for the Company have been paid in part from short-term unsecured notes from shareholders. At June 30, 2007 the Company had a deficit in working capital (current liabilities in excess of current assets) of $2,421,710. The working capital deficit at June 30, 2006 was $2,074,182. The decrease in working capital was caused by the continued accrual of salary, unearned revenue, accounts payable for expenses, which the Company was unable to pay in cash and additional short-term unsecured notes incurred as part of the assumption of GMC liabilities.

Other than its short-term office lease and loans payable to affiliates and non-related parties, the Company, excluding UTTI, is not subject to any material commitments or capital expenditures. The start-up costs for UTTI were financed with a loan in the principal amount of $165,000 from the minority shareholder of UTTI, who is also an officer and director of UTTI. UTTI is obligated to its minority owner in the principal amount of $165,000, plus interest. Such loan is now due on demand. The Company also made advances to UTTI to pay its operating expenses during its start-up phase.

When shredding machines are sold the company requires that 50% of the total selling price be deposited with the company as protection against cancellation of the sales contract. The company has access to these funds and uses them to cover part of the manufacturing costs of the shredder. The company is also required to give a deposit to the manufacturer of the shredder, at the time the company contracts with the manufacturer to build a machine. When the machine is finished and delivered to the buyer, it is completed and tested prior to delivery. At the time of shipment the buyer is required to pay the balance due on the sales contract. Because of the successful history of the company’s machine performance, the deposit requirement has not presented a problem in sales. For one year the buyer has a warranty to cover performance of the machine.

 

The Company received no revenue from sales during the current fiscal year.

The Company derived a loss from operations before other income (expense) during the years ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 of $214,808 and $333,737, respectively. Total expenses for 2007 were $214,808 compared to $329,122 in 2006. Salaries, wages, commissions and consulting fees were $142,650 for 2007 compared to $218,420 for 2006. Rental expenses were $14,400 in 2007 and in 2006. Total expenses decreased primarily because of decreases in Consulting and Professional fees. If more of the Company’s plans for revenue producing activities come to fruition, expenses will rise accordingly.

Net loss for the year ended June 30, 2007 was $374,869 compared to a net loss of $575,900 in 2006. On a per share basis, the net loss for the year ended June 30, 2007 was ($0.02) compared to net loss of ($0.03) in 2006. Operating losses are expected to continue until such time, if ever, as the Company receives sufficient revenues from the sale of shredders, crumb rubber plants, the lease or license of the OTR Tire Disintegrator System, or other operations. There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. The ongoing losses have created substantial pressure on the Company’s liquidity. The

---

Company has had to engage in less favorable borrowing arrangements with higher interest and borrowing costs, to meet its cash flow requirements.

UTTI is 55% owned by the Company and operates at a loss. UTTI’s losses have exceeded the equity capital contributed by the minority shareholder. Therefore, in preparing its consolidated statements of operations, the Company does not adjust its consolidated net loss by the minority shareholder’s interest in the UTTI loss. For several years the tire repair equipment owned by UTTI has been stored in facilities in Illinois for use by a company associated with Garb-Oil. Consequently there has been no storage or rental expense related to the UTTI tire repair equipment during this time. Current plans include use of this machinery at facilities owned by a purchaser of one of the company’s shredders.Current negotiations are continuing regarding use of the tire repair machinery and the company is incurring no storage costs during these negotiations.

 

During the year ended June 30, 2007, the Company had a net increase in cash of $3,360. The primary sources of cash were from sales of common stock and additional loans from financing activities.

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes 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 provided a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Garb Oil and Power Corporation and Subsidiaries as of June 30, 2007, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company is engaged in the production and marketing of tire shredding machines as well as the marketing of various types of tires. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s operating losses and lack of working capital raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

GARB OIL & POWER CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2007 and 2006

 

 

a. Organization

 

Garb Oil & Power Corporation (Garb Oil) is a majority owned subsidiary of Garbalizer Corporation of America and was dormant at January 13, 1981. Since January 14, 1981, Garb Oil had been considered to be in the development stage. Development stage activities have consisted of raising capital, purchasing property and developing technology related to production of electricity by the burning of used rubber, pyrolysis (extraction of oil, carbon, and steel from used tires), the recovery of used rubber from large off-the-road tires and repair and sale of used truck tires. The Company exited the development stage on June 30, 2004.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include Garb Oil and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Rialto Power Corporation (which was dissolved by the State of California), and its 55% owned subsidiary, Utah Truck Tire, Inc.; which are collectively referred to as the Company. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies.

 

b. Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

c. Basis of Presentation - Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. As shown in the consolidated financial statements, during the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company has incurred a net loss of $374,869 and $575,900, respectively, and as of June 30, 2007, the Company’s accumulated deficit was $5,363,787. These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing as may be required, and ultimately to attain successful operations. Management is continuing its efforts to obtain the necessary financing as may be required to generate sufficient cash flows for future operations. The company sells tire shredders and sold one machine in the prior fiscal year. The Company also imports new tires from China to be sold through Black Minority Distributors. The company has imported and sold two orders of new tires for a total of $305,400 in recent years. A new scrap-tire processing machine owned by the company is being developed in

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (Continued)

 

China and the pilot model has yet to be completed. In the Business Description section of the 10KSB report the machine is described and discussed as the OTR Disintegrator machine to process large Off the Road Tires used in the mining, road construction and related industries. There are hundreds of millions of these large scrap tires stored worldwide at various mining sites that can be recycled if the machine proves successful when completed and tested. Currently there are no machines available that are capable of processing these large tires. Current plans to utilize this machine have been made by the company to sell or lease the machines with a continuing royalty to be paid the company each year for a seven-year period. Representatives of the company have contacted the companies who have the stockpiled OTR scrap tires and have received much interest and indications that the companies would like to become involved when the machines are ready for operation.

 

d. Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Garb Oil and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has recognized all of the losses of Utah Truck Tire in its statement of operations, with no offset to minority interest.

 

e. Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated using the straight-line method based on the expected lives of the assets which range from five to ten years. Depreciation expense for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, was $249 and $248, respectively.

 

The Company records impairment losses when indicators of impairment are present and undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amount.

 

 

Revenue is recognized when the sales amount is determined, shipment of goods to the customer has occurred, and collection is reasonably assured. The sales recorded in 2006 were to single customers.

 

g. Advertising Costs

 

The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was $0 and $30 for the years ending June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

 

h. Income Taxes

 

The Company recognizes the amount of income taxes payable or refundable for the current year and recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax

consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement amounts of certain assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent that uncertainty exists as to whether the deferred tax assets will ultimately be realized.

 

i. Basic Income (Loss) Per Share

 

The following is an illustration of the reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic loss per share calculation:                                          

 

			For the Years Ended June 30,
			2007			2006
Net income (loss) (numerator)			$	(374,869	)	$	(575,900	)
Weighted average shares outstanding
(denominator)				22,741,378			20,088,071
Basic income (loss) per share			$	(0.02	)	$	(0.03	)

 

j. Financial Instruments

 

Cash equivalents include highly liquid short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less, readily convertible to known amounts of cash. The amounts reported as cash, prepaid expenses, trade accounts payable and notes payable to related parties are considered to be reasonable approximations of their fair values. The fair value estimates presented herein were based on market information available to management as of June 30, 2007. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. The reported fair values do not take into consideration potential expenses that would be incurred in an actual settlement.

 

k. Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains cash in federally insured bank accounts. At times these amounts exceed insured limits. The Company does not anticipate any losses from these deposits.

 

 

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. SFAS No.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES (Continued)

 

159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 159 on our financial position and results of operations.

 

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans.” This Statement requires an employer to recognize the over funded or under funded status of a defined benefit post retirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position, and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. SFAS No. 158 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. The adoption of SFAS No. 158 had no impact on our financial position and results of operations.

 

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measures”. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally GAAP, expands disclosures about fair value measurements, and applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 does not require any new fair value measurements. However, the FASB anticipates that for some entities, the application of SFAS No. 157 will change current practice. SFAS No. 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, which for us would be the fiscal year beginning April 1, 2008. We are currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 157 but do not expect that it will have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements.” SAB No. 108 addresses how the effects of prior year uncorrected misstatements should be considered when quantifying misstatements in current year financial statements. SAB No. 108 requires companies to quantify misstatements using a balance sheet and income statement approach and to evaluate whether either approach results in quantifying an error that is material in light of relevant quantitative and qualitative factors. SAB No. 108 is effective for periods ending after November 15, 2006. The adoption of SAB No. 108 had

no impact on our financial position and results of operations.

 

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation Number 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” This Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. We are currently assessing the effect of this Interpretation on our financial statements.

for doubtful accounts. Management of the Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by identifying potential troubled accounts and by using historical experience and future expectations applied to an aging of accounts. Trade accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade accounts receivable previously written off are recorded as income when received. Management determined that an allowance for doubtful accounts of $45,355 was required at June 30, 2006.

 

 

Inventories consist of raw materials and parts and are stated at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined using primarily the first-in-first-out (FIFO) method. Work-in-process inventories consist of shredders which have not been delivered in a completed status to customers.

 

 

Utah Truck Tire, Inc. was formed May 20, 1994, and on May 24, 1994, the Company was issued 55% (55 shares) of the outstanding shares of Utah Truck Tire, Inc. in exchange for the Company’s experience, expertise and reputation in dealing with tire and rubber products. The remaining 45% (45 shares) was issued to a director of Utah Truck Tire, Inc. for a commitment to loan Utah Truck Tire, Inc. $150,000. Utah Truck Tire, Inc. is currently dormant, having no revenues and incurring minimal expenses during the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. Utah Truck Tire, Inc. was primarily in the business of selling retread diesel truck tires.

 

 

The Company executed an employment agreement with its then President, currently its CEO, on May 1, 1986. The agreement is of a continuing nature and specifies no date of termination. Under the terms of the agreement, the CEO’s salary was stated at $48,000 per year and is reviewed by the Board of Directors annually. The salary amount in the previously executed employment agreement did not change after the officer’s change in title. As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, the current CEO was owed accrued salary of $744,000 and $696,000, respectively.

 

The company also executed an employment agreement with its former President on January 9, 2006. The agreement is for one year with an annual salary of $45,000. As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, the former President was owed accrued salary of $45,000 and $21,200, respectively.

 

During the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, notes payable-related parties increased $117,169 and decreased $408,898, respectively. The changes are due to additional proceeds from, payments on, and reclassifications of, notes payable.

Interest expense related to the related party notes payable for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 was $30,299 and $32,086, respectively. Significant reclassifications of related party notes occurred during the current year.

 

 

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. Net deferred tax liabilities consist of the following components as of June 30, 2007.

The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. federal and state income tax rates of 39% to pretax income from continuing operations for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 due to the following:

At June 30, 2007, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $2,914,000 that may be offset against future taxable income from the year 2007 through 2027. No tax benefit has been reported in the June 30, 2007 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 carryforwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carryforwards may be limited as to use in future years.

 

 

The Company executed an employment agreement with its then President, currently its CEO, on May 1, 1986. The agreement is of a continuing nature and specifies no date of termination. Under the terms of the agreement, the CEO’s salary was stated at $48,000 per year and is reviewed by the Board of Directors annually. The salary amount in the previously executed employment agreement did not change after the officer’s change in title. As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, the current CEO was owed accrued salary of $744,000 and $696,000, respectively.

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock as of June 30, 2007, (i) each person known by the Company to own more than five percent (5%) of the Company’s outstanding stock, (ii) each director of the Company and (iii) all officers and directors as a group.

(1)                                                     John C. Brewer beneficially owns 98% of the outstanding common stock of Garbalizer Corporation of America (“GCA”). John Brewer also owns 100% of the outstanding common stock of Commodities Trading Corporation (“CTC”).

(2)                                                     In September, 1988 A/S Parkveien 55 filed a Schedule 13D stating its beneficial ownership of 1,800,000 shares owned of record and beneficially by it. The Schedule 13D also indicates that an additional 478,000 shares (3.3% of the class) were beneficially owned by two Norwegian corporations having common control or ownership with A/S Parkveien 55. During a prior fiscal year, 1,500,000 shares held of record by A/S Parkveien 55 at the time of the Schedule 13D filing were transferred of record to Christiana Bank, Oslo, Norway and neither A/S Parkveien 55 nor the other corporations listed on the Schedule 13D currently own shares of record. A/S Parkveien 55 did not inform the Company of a change in beneficial ownership as result of such change in record ownership and the table therefore reflects beneficial ownership stated in the Schedule 13D as adjusted for subsequent sales by Christiana Bank.

(3)                                                     Consists of 9,788,291 shares held by GCA in which Mr. Brewer may be deemed to share beneficial ownership as a result of his position as a director and principal shareholder of GCA.

(4)                                                     Consists of 9,788,291 shares held by GCA in which Mr. Laver may be deemed to share beneficial ownership as a result of his position as a director of GCA, and 20,746 shares owned of record by Mr. Laver.

The Company is unaware of any arrangements which may result in a change in control of the Company.
