NOTE 1
BASIS OF PRESENTATION


The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10Q of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations have been included.  The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year.  When  reading the financial  information  contained in this Quarterly Report,  reference should be  made to the financial statements and notes contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2009.





NOTE 2
NATURE OF OPERATIONS


Carbonics Capital Corporation (“we,” “our,” “us,”  “Carbonics,” or the “Company”) was founded to recycle carbon dioxide into value-added products.





Our activities during 2009 primarily involved evaluation of a number of different biological, chemical and other technologies designed to recycle carbon dioxide into value-added products, the execution of a license agreement for a technology capable of recycling of carbon dioxide in applications involving coal-fired power production, and the completion of research and development activities involving the carbon recycling technologies.





Our strategic plan moving forward involves the acquisition of strategic and accretive assets. We are currently evaluating qualified opportunities that produce the raw materials needed for our technologies, or that have the infrastructure we need to scale our technologies, or that have the ability to refine the products we produce with our technologies into finished goods. Our plan in this respect is to leverage the targeted assets and cash flows to defray our technology and financing risk as we commercialize our technologies.





The Company’s ongoing research and development activities mostly involve laboratory scale bench testing, with a view towards construction of a demonstration scale pilot facility based on the Company’s licensed technologies by 2011.





NOTE 3
GOING CONCERN


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company had an accumulated deficit of $(135,165,292) at March 31, 2010.  As of March 31, 2010 the Company’s current liabilities exceeded current assets by $10,245,544, which includes convertible debentures of $6,586,010, accrued interest payable of $1,000,344, and related party convertible debentures of $91,308. The Company’s working capital deficit net of these amounts is $2,567,882. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.   Management’s plans include raising additional proceeds from debt and equity transactions and completing strategic acquisitions.




NOTE 4
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION


The financial statements for the periods ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 have been consolidated to include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries.








7


USE OF ESTIMATES
 The preparation of 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, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and disclosures of contingencies during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from management’s estimates.





STOCK BASED COMPENSATION


The Company accounts for stock and stock options issued for services and compensation to employees under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718. For non-employees, the fair market value of the Company's stock on the date of stock issuance or option/grant is used.  The Company determines the fair market value of options issued under the Black-Scholes Pricing Model. Under the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the employee's requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant).





FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet as of March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 for cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other receivables, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.  The fair value of notes payable and long-term debt approximates their carrying value as the stated or discounted rates of the debt reflect recent market conditions.  It was not practical to estimate the fair value of the convertible debt due to the nature of these items.  These estimates would be based on the carrying amounts, maturities, effective interest rates and volatility of the Company's stock. The Company does not believe it is practical due to the significant volatility of the Company's stock.





Effective July 1 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.  This topic defines fair value for certain financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance supersedes all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.





The Company accounted for the convertible debentures in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible debentures could result in the note principal and related accrued interest being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares.





Effective July 1 2009, the Company adopted ASC 820-10-55-23A,Scope Application to Certain Non-Financial Assets and Certain Non-Financial Liabilities, delaying application for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities as permitted. ASC 820 establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:





•
Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access as of the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 1 inputs include active exchange-traded securities and exchange-based derivatives. •
Level 2 — inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are directly observable for the asset or liability or indirectly observable through corroboration with observable market data. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 2 inputs include fixed income securities, non-exchange-based derivatives, mutual funds, and fair-value hedges.•
Level 3 — unobservable inputs for the asset or liability only used when there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities utilizing Level 3 inputs include infrequently-traded, non-exchange-based derivatives and commingled investment funds, and are measured using present value pricing models.

The following table presents the embedded derivative, the Company’s only financial assets measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets on a recurring basis and their level within the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2010:

The following table reconciles, for the three months ended March 31, 2010, the beginning and ending balances for financial instruments that are recognized at fair value in the consolidated financial statements:

(2,676)Change in fair value of beneficial conversion features of debentures


10,913Balance at March 31, 2010

$
480,282


The fair value of the conversion features are calculated at the time of issuance and the Company records a conversion liability for the calculated value. The Company recognizes changes in fair value for the conversion liability in subsequent periods, which are added to the principal of the debenture.  The Company also recognizes reductions in fair value for conversions of the underlying debenture.





FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


The Company accounted for the convertible debentures in accordance withFASB Accounting Standards Codification 480, as the conversion feature embedded in the convertible debentures could result in the note principal and related accrued interest being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares.





NOTE 5
STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY


SERIES C PREFERRED STOCK


Shares of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock (the “Series C Shares”) may be converted by the holder into Company common stock. The conversion ratio is such that the full 1,000,000 Series C Shares originally issued convert into Company common shares representing 80% of the fully diluted outstanding common shares outstanding after the conversion (which includes all common shares outstanding plus all common shares potentially issuable upon the conversion of all derivative securities not held by the holder). The holder of Series C Shares may cast the number of votes at a shareholders meeting or by written consent that equals the number of common shares into which the Series C Shares are convertible on the record date for the shareholder action. In the event the Board of Directors declares a dividend payable to Company common shareholders, the holders of Series C Shares will receive the dividend that would be payable if the Series C Shares were converted into Company common shares prior to the dividend. In the event of a liquidation of the Company, the holders of Series C Shares will receive a preferential distribution of $0.001 per share, and will share in the distribution as if the Series C Shares had been converted into common shares. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company’s majority shareholder, Viridis Capital, LLC (“Viridis”) converted 9,200 shares of Series C Preferred Stock into 1,000,000,000 common shares (which conversion was reversed in May 2010), and Minority Interest Fund (II), LLC (“MIF”) converted 3,052 shares of Series C Preferred Stock into 208,333,333 common shares.


COMMON STOCK
 Effective January 4, 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation to increase the authorized common stock from 500,000,000 shares, $0.001 par value, to 10,000,000,000 shares at $0.0001 par value.





9


The Company issued 257,798,372 shares of common stock upon the conversion of an aggregate of $71,700 in debt during the three months ended March 31, 2010 consisting of: 123,811,168 common shares issued to YA Global Investments, LP (“YAGI”), upon the conversion of $45,200 in debt; 133,987,204 common shares issued to Minority Interest Fund (II), LLC (“MIF”), upon the conversion of $26,500 in debt.




NOTE 6
FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS


The following is a summary of the Company’s financing arrangements as of March 31, 2010:


Current portion of convertible debentures:Convertible debenture payable to YA Global Investments issued October 2005
$
602,907Convertible debenture payable to YA Global Investments issued June 2007

30,053Convertible debenture conversion liabilities

480,282Total current convertible debentures
$
6,677,318





As of March 31, 2010, the Company had convertible debentures payable to Minority Interest Fund (II), LLC (“MIF”) in an aggregate amount of $82,896 (the “MIF Debentures”) which are due December 31, 2010 and carry interest at 20%.  The MIF Debentures are convertible into Company common stock at a rate equal to 90% of the lowest volume weighted average price for the Company’s common stock for the twenty trading days preceding conversion.  During the three months ended March 31, 2010, MIF purchased additional debentures from the Company in the amount of $10,657, and converted $26,500 as noted above.  The Company determined the value of the MIF Debenture at December 31, 2009 to be $108,724, which represented the face value of the debenture plus the present value of the conversion feature. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, an expense of $1,103 has been recorded as expense for the accretion to fair value on the convertible note payable, and $2,676 has been recorded for the present value of the conversions during the period, thereby decreasing the carrying value of the MIF Debenture to $91,308 at March 31, 2010.  The liability for the conversion feature shall be increased from its present value of $8,412 at December 31, 2009 to its estimated settlement amount of $9,211 at December 31, 2010.  For the three months ended March 31, 2010, interest expense of $4,519 for the MIF Debentures was incurred. The managing member of MIF is a relative of the Company’s chairman.





The balance of convertible debt due to RAKJ as of March 31, 2010 was $30,053 (the “RAKJ Debenture”). The RAKJ Debenture is convertible into Company common stock at a rate equal to 50% of the lowest closing market price for the Company’s common stock for the twenty trading days preceding conversion.  The Company determined the value of the RAKJ Debenture at December 31, 2009 to be $59,719, which represented the face value of the debenture plus the present value of the conversion feature. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, an expense of $387 has been recorded as expense for the accretion to fair value on the convertible note payable, thereby, increasing the carrying value of the RAKJ Debenture to $60,106.  The liability for the conversion feature has been increased to its estimated settlement value of $30,053.  For the three months ended March 31, 2010 interest expense of $1,482 for the RAKJ Debenture was incurred.  The RAKJ Debenture was fully satisfied in April 2010.





The Company accounted for each of the MIF Debenture and the RAKJ Debenture in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 480, as the conversion feature embedded in each debenture could result in the note principal being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares.





YA Global Investments, LP
 On August 14, 2008, the Company and YA Global Investments, L.P. (“YAGI”) agreed to extend the maturity date  of the following secured convertible debentures previously issued to YAGI to December 31, 2011: that certain convertible debenture dated October 12, 2005 in the original principal amount of $1,475,000; that certain convertible debenture dated February 8, 2006 in the original principal amount of $3,050,369; and, that certain convertible debenture dated June 26, 2007 in the original principal amount of $570,000. The current balance due against these debentures was $2,129,287 as of December 31, 2009. Each debenture provides for interest in the amount of 12% per annum and is convertible at the lesser of $0.60 or 90% of the lowest closing bid price of Carbonics’ common stock during the 30 trading days immediately preceding the conversion date.


10


Effective June 30, 2009, the Company and GS AgriFuels Corporation entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company acquired 100% of the stock of Sustainable Systems, Inc. (“Culbertson”) from GS AgriFuels in return for assumption of $4,000,000 of GS AgriFuels’ indebtedness to YA Global Investments, L.P. (“YAGI”).  In connection with this Agreement, the Company issued an amended and restated convertible debenture to YAGI for $4,000,000 due on December 31, 2011.

The Company determined the value of the YAGI Debenture at December 31, 2009 to be $4,369,061 which represented the face value of the debenture plus the present value of the conversion feature.  For the three months ended March 31, 2010, $10,913 has been recorded for the increase in fair value of the YAGI Debenture to $4,378,484 at March 31, 2010.





The Company accounted for the YAGI Debenture dated October 12, 2005 in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 480, as the conversion feature embedded in the YAGI Debenture could result in the note principal being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. The Company determined the fair value of this debenture at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 to be equal to the face value of the debenture.





The Company accounted for the YAGI Debenture dated February 8, 2006 in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 480, as the conversion feature embedded in the YAGI Debenture could result in the note principal being converted to a variable number of the Company’s common shares. The Company determined the fair value of this debenture at December 31, 2009 and March 31, 2010 to be equal to the face value of the debenture.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES


On May 4, 2009, the Superior Court of the State of California entered a default against the Company in the amount of $62,500.  Golden State Equity Investors, Inc. alleged claims against the Company in which they asserted a cause of action for breach of contract regarding a Settlement Agreement dated July 9, 2008.  The Company has recorded this default amount effective January 1, 2009.





The Company’s Culbertson oilseed processing facility did not receive a line of credit for 2008 crop purchases, voluntarily surrendered its commodity dealers license and, on April 27, 2009, entered into a settlement agreement with the states of Montana and North Dakota pertaining to outstanding payments due for purchase of oilseeds during 2008 that were contracted at rates far greater than current oilseed values. Culbertson had previously negotiated with two separate banks to receive working capital financing sufficient to service these obligations. Neither bank was able to close due to strain in the prevailing commodity and financial markets. Culbertson idled its operations in 2009 during the liquidation process by the Montana Department of Agriculture of Culbertson's inventories to satisfy the oilseed payables.  The liquidation of Culbertson's inventory was completed during the fourth quarter 2009. Approximately $1,216,136 was due to growers who had delivered seed, of which amount $950,723 had been paid as of July 17, 2009.  The remaining amount due and owing to the growers of $265,413 was paid in September of 2009.
 
 The Company’s Culbertson subsidiary is party to the matter entitled GS AgriFuels Corporation v. Chaykin, et al. The action was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, on February 2, 2009. The Complaint seeks damages for defendants' fraudulent misrepresentations, tortious interference, breach of acquisition agreements and related claims relating to the sale by the defendants of the stock of Sustainable Systems, Inc. (“Culbertson”) to GS AgriFuels, and arising from the disclosure by the defendants that Culbertson owned itsCulbertson, Montana oilseed crushing facility when in fact Culbertson merely held the right to purchase the Montana facility at the time of the acquisition by GS AgriFuels; the failure to disclose by the defendants that Culbertson’s right to purchase the Montana facility, as well as any investment made in the Montana facility, was subject to forfeiture within months of entering into the acquisition agreements with GS AgriFuels; and, the provision by the defendants of materially false financial statements. The defendants served a separate action entitled Max, et al. v. GS AgriFuels Corporation, et al. in the Montana Fourth Judicial District Court in response to GS AgriFuels’ New York complaint; this Montana complaint was dismissed in January 2010. The New York court granted GS AgriFuels’ March 2010 motion for summary judgment as to liability on GS AgriFuels’ fraud and breach of contract claims on April 8, 2010.  During 2008 and 2009, three of the former shareholders of Culbertson, corresponding to about 60% of the former shareholders’ prior ownership interest in Culbertson, entered into settlement agreements pursuant to which has all parties have been released from all obligations under the relevant acquisition agreements and otherwise. Management is unable to characterize or evaluate the probability of any outcome at this time.  The Company’s Sustainable Systems, LLC subsidiary is party to various collections matters pertaining to outstanding accounts payable due to vendors.

ITEM 2
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS





Carbonics Capital Corporation (“we,” “our,” “us,”  “Carbonics,” or the “Company”) was founded to recycle carbon dioxide into value-added products.





Our activities during 2009 primarily involved evaluation of a number of different biological, chemical and other technologies designed to recycle carbon dioxide into value-added products, the execution of a license agreement for a technology capable of recycling of carbon dioxide in applications involving coal-fired power production, and the completion of research and development activities involving the carbon recycling technologies.





Our strategic plan moving forward involves the acquisition of strategic and accretive assets as well as exploitation of the technology licensed by the Company. We are currently evaluating qualified opportunities that produce the raw materials needed for our technologies, or that have the infrastructure we need to scale our technologies, or that have the ability to refine the products we produce with our technologies into finished goods. Our plan in this respect is to leverage the targeted assets and cash flows to defray our technology and financing risk as we commercialize our technologies.





Plan of Operations


The Company is party to agreements for the ongoing research and development of patent-pending technology designed to recycle carbon dioxide. These activities primarily involve laboratory scale bench testing at a university laboratory as part of a three year testing plan developed in conjunction with commercial collaborators and the host university. These testing efforts are administered by Management with a principal investigator located at the host university, and a research staff consisting of nine post-graduate researchers. The Company’s goal with this testing and development work is to refine the scale-up design assumptions relative to the construction of a demonstration scale pilot facility based on the Company’s licensed technologies by 2011.





CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES


The financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company, in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. This requires the Company’s management to make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of the contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. These estimates and assumptions will also affect the reported amounts of certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In the opinion of management, all adjustments which, except as described elsewhere herein are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. Actual results could differ materially based on any changes in the estimates and assumptions that the Company uses in the preparation of its financial statements and any changes in the Company’s future operational plans


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Three Months Ended March 31, 2010 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2009

There were no revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2010 or for the three months ended March 31, 2009, except as noted in discontinued operations.





Cost of Revenues


There was no cost of revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2010 or for the three months ended March 31, 2009, except as noted in discontinued operations.





Operating Expenses


Operating expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2010 totaled $107,201. In the comparable period of the prior year, operating expenses totaled $21,882.

14


Interest/Other Expense


Total interest and other financing income (expenses) for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were $(170,940) and $2,777,759 for the three months ended March 31, 2009.  Included in the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $160,027 of interest expense, consisting of $155,508 in accrued interest, and $4,519 in accrued interest due to a related party. Other expense mainly included $(10,913) and $2,878,336 in non-cash income (expense) associated with the conversion features embedded in the convertible debentures issued by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.





Net Income (Loss)


Income (loss) from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $(278,141) as compared to $2,755,877 for the same period in 2009.  Loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $46,886 as compared to $558,513 for the same period in 2009.  Net income (loss) for the three months ended March 31, 2010 was $(325,027) as compared to $2,197,364 for the same period in 2009. These changes were mainly attributable to the non-cash income in 2009 associated with the conversion features.





Liquidity and Capital Resources


The Company had $10,302,891 in current liabilities at March 31, 2010, and may need to obtain additional financing to satisfy these obligations. Thus, the Company’s liquidity needs have decreased relative to the amounts required by the Company during 2010, however, the Company requires new sources of capital to execute on its ongoing and planned research and development and other business development activities. The Company is also in need of financing to acquire targeted strategic assets.





Our primary sources of liquidity are cash provided by financing activities.  For the three months ended March 31, 2010, net cash provided by our operating activities was $228 as compared to $3,194 used in the three months ended March 31, 2009. The Company’s capital requirements consist of general working capital needs. The Company’s capital resources consist primarily of proceeds from issuance of debt and common stock. The Company plans to fund ongoing operations during 2010 with a combination of proceeds from the issuance of debt and equity.





Cash Flows


Our operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2010 provided $228 in cash.  At March 31, 2010, accounts payable and accrued expenses totaled $261,595.   At March 31, 2010 the Company had $5,800 in cash.   For the three months ended March 31, 2010, investing activities used $228 in cash. The Company had a working capital deficit of $10,245,544 at March 31, 2010, which includes convertible debentures of $6,677,318.





At the present time, Carbonics Capital has no source of committed capital. We are currently investigating the availability of both equity and debt financing necessary to complete the Company’s current projects.  We do not know at this time if the necessary funds can be obtained nor on what terms they may be available.





Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

ITEM 4
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer participated in and supervised the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer or officers and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.





In the course of making our assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, we identified a material weakness.  This material weakness consisted of inadequate staffing and supervision within the bookkeeping and accounting operations of our company.  The lack of employees prevents us from segregating disclosure duties.  The inadequate segregation of duties is a weakness because it could lead to the untimely identification and resolution of accounting and disclosure matters or could lead to a failure to perform timely and effective reviews.  Based on the results of this assessment, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that because of the above condition, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.





There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
