SES SOLAR INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
1. Organization and Nature of Operations
 
Organization - SES SOLAR INC. (the “Company,” “SES USA,” “our,” “we” and “us”) is the result of a reverse acquisition accomplished on September 27, 2006 between SES USA, a Delaware company, which had no operations and net assets of $39,069, and Société d’Energie Solaire SA (“SES Switzerland”), a Swiss company. SES USA acquired all of the outstanding shares of SES Switzerland. For accounting purposes, the acquisition has been treated as a recapitalization of SES Switzerland with SES Switzerland as the acquirer (reverse acquisition). SES Switzerland acquired 10,668,000 shares of SES USA in the transaction. The historical financial statements prior to September 27, 2006 are those of SES Switzerland. The reverse acquisition resulted in a change of control of SES USA, with the former stockholders of SES Switzerland owning approximately 70% of SES USA and SES Switzerland becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of SES USA.
 
SES Switzerland was formed in 2001 for the purpose of researching, developing, manufacturing and selling innovative products to the solar photovoltaic market. From its inception, SES Switzerland has focused primarily on manufacturing and installing silicon photovoltaic solar cell panels. The principal source of revenue for the Company has been the sale of photovoltaic panels in turn-key installations, manufactured in-house or purchased from subcontractors, to electric utilities, local government agencies and private households.

In 2008, the Company formed a second Swiss wholly owned subsidiary, SES Prod SA (“SES Prod”), which is also located in Geneva. It is expected that in the future, all of the Company’s manufacturing activities now being conducted by SES Switzerland will be conducted by SES Prod. At such time, SES Switzerland’s primary activity will be managing the Company’s manufacturing facility.
 
2. Plan of Operations
 
The Company has experienced losses from operations and anticipates incurring losses in the near future. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss of ($763,563) and a negative cash flow from operations of ($169,269), and had a working capital deficiency of ($14,322,268) as of September 30, 2009. These matters raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company has financed the construction of its manufacturing facility with construction loans (Note 6). The Company intends to convert these construction loans into a long term mortgage immediately after completion of the facility. Since the manufacturing facility has not been completed as of September 30, 2009, no construction loans have been converted into mortgages.

The Company's ability to continue its operations and market and sell its products and services will depend on its ability to convert the construction loans into mortgages and to obtain additional financing. If the Company is unable to obtain such financing, the Company may not be able to continue its business. Any additional equity financing may be dilutive to shareholders, and debt financing, if available, will increase expenses and may involve restrictive covenants. The Company will be required to raise additional capital on terms that are uncertain, especially in light of current capital market conditions. Under these circumstances, if the Company is unable to obtain additional capital or is required to raise it on undesirable terms, its financial condition could be adversely impacted.

The Company’s current business plan includes the development of a new assembly line based on its proprietary technology and the construction of a manufacturing facility in the suburbs of Geneva, Switzerland to produce solar modules and solar tiles at a lower cost. These activities require that the Company design and manufacture prototype panels, have them approved in accordance with European and other standards, manufacture them in series and sell them in the primary markets for solar photovoltaic cells. Costs incurred in manufacturing prototype panels have been expensed as research and development costs.

The Company does not believe that it can achieve profitability until development, implementation, and commercialization of new products manufactured through the new assembling process are operational.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

3. Basis of Presentation
 
The consolidated interim financial statements included herein are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
These consolidated interim financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained herein. These consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The Company adheres to the same accounting policies in the preparation of its interim financial statements. As permitted under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, are based on full year assumptions. Such amounts are expensed in full in the year incurred. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon estimated annual income tax rates.
 
  4. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, SES Switzerland and SES Prod. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation.

All amounts are presented in U.S. dollars ($) unless otherwise stated.
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying disclosures.  Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions that the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may differ from such estimates.
  
Foreign Currency Translation - The reporting currency of SES USA is the U.S. dollar whereas the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries’ functional currency is the Swiss Franc (CHF). The financial statements of SES Switzerland and SES Prod are translated to U.S. dollar equivalents under the current method in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 830 (prior authoritative literature: SFAS No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation”). Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollar equivalents at rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Average rates for the year are used to translate revenues and expenses. The cumulative translation adjustment is reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Foreign currency differences from inter-company receivables and payables are recorded as Foreign Exchange Gains/Losses in the Statement of Operations.
 
The exchange rates used for translating the financial statements are listed below:

Earnings (Loss) per Share - Earnings (Loss) per share is presented in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 260 (prior authoritative literature: SFAS No. 128, “Earnings Per Share”). Basic and diluted loss per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 does not include the effects of warrants and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects, in periods in which they have a dilutive effect, commitments to issue common stock and common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants for periods in which the exercise price of the warrants is lower than the Company’s average share price for the period.

Diluted weighted average shares outstanding
    73,024,095       73,081,168  

Note : Due to the net loss, the calculation of the effect of common stock equivalents due to issuance of warrants is excluded because of anti-dilution. The number of shares of common stock listed as beneficially owned by one stockholder includes 1,500,000 shares of common stock potentially issuable upon exercise of 1,500,000 common share purchase warrants. Each common share purchase warrant is exercisable until November 22, 2010 at an exercise price of $0.90 per share. As of the September 30, 2009 balance sheet date, no warrants had been exercised. Also, they are not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive.

Revenue Recognition - The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, "Revenue Recognition" ("SAB 104"). SAB 104 requires that four basic criteria be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services rendered; (3) the seller's price to the buyer is fixed and determinable; and (4) collection is reasonably assured.
 
Revenues and profits from general management of construction-type contracts are recognized on the completed-contract method and therefore when the project is completed. A contract is considered complete when all costs except insignificant items have been incurred and the installation is operating according to specifications or has been accepted by the customer. Contract costs include all direct materials and labor costs and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs. Costs in excess of amounts billed are classified as current assets under Work in Progress. Billings in excess of cost are classified under current liabilities as Billings in Excess of Cost and Estimated Earnings. Any anticipated losses on contracts are charged to operations as soon as they are determinable. No unbilled revenue has been recognized thus far.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company had no billed or unbilled amount representing claims or other similar items subject to uncertainty concerning their determination or ultimate realization.

Between January 2008 and June 2008, the Company recognized sales of photovoltaic electricity produced by solar modules on the roof (hereinafter, the “Solar Plant”) of its new manufacturing facility to a local electricity provider in Geneva. Revenue from such sales were recognized monthly based on the amount of electricity produced. As further explained below, such revenue has ceased due to the sale of the Solar Plant as of June 30, 2008.

Capitalization of Interest - The Company capitalizes interest on projects that qualify for interest capitalization under FASB ASC 835-20 (prior authoritative literature: SFAS No. 34, "Capitalization of Interest Costs,"  as amended. Capitalized interest is included within construction in progress. For the period ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, the Company capitalized $467,563 and $172,755 of interest, respectively. Capitalization for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $205,886.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments —The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, inventory, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term maturities of these instruments. The fair value of the long-term debt is estimated based on anticipated interest rates which management believes would currently be available to the Company for similar issues of debt, taking into account the current credit risk of the Company and the other market factors. The fair value approximates carrying value of the long-term debt.

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 105-10-65 (prior authoritative literature: SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles—a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162”). On the effective date of this standard, FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (ASC) will become the source of authoritative U.S. accounting and reporting standards for nongovernmental entities, in addition to guidance issued by the SEC. FASB ASC significantly changes the way financial statement preparers, auditors, and academics perform accounting research but is not intended to change GAAP. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. FASB ASC 105-10-65 was adopted by the Company as of July 1, 2009 and the principal impact on our financial statements is limited to disclosures as all future references to authoritative accounting literature will be referenced in accordance with the Codification. In order to ease the transition to the Codification, the Company is providing the Codification cross-reference alongside the references to the standards issued and adopted prior to the adoption of the Codification.

In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC 805 (prior authoritative literature: SFAS No. 141(R),“Business Combinations”). FASB ASC 805 requires all business combinations completed after the effective date to be accounted for by applying the acquisition method (previously referred to as the purchase method). Companies applying this method will have to identify the acquirer, determine the acquisition date and purchase price and recognize at their acquisition date fair values of the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interests in the acquirer. In the case of a bargain purchase the acquirer is required to reevaluate the measurements of the recognized assets and liabilities at the acquisition date and recognize a gain on that date if an excess remains. FASB ASC 805 becomes effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2008. This statement did not have an effect on the Company's financial statements.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB ASC 810-10-65 (prior authoritative literature: FAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS 160”)). FASB ASC 810-10-65  requires that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary be reported as equity and the amount of net income specifically attributable to the non-controlling interest be identified in the financial statements. It also calls for consistency in the manner of reporting changes in the parent’s ownership interest and requires fair value measurement of any non-controlling equity investment retained in a deconsolidation. FASB ASC 810-10-65 was adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2009 and did not have a significant effect on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 820-10-65 (prior authoritative literature: SFAS 157-2), Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, which defers the implementation for the non-recurring financial assets and liabilities from fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The provisions of SFAS 157 will be applied prospectively. The statement provisions effective as of January 1, 2008 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. The adoption of as of January 1, 2009 of the remaining provisions did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

In March 2008, the FASB issued FASB ASC 815-10-50 (prior authoritative literature: SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133" (“SFAS 161”)). FASB ASC 815-10-50 amends and expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" (“SFAS 133”), by requiring enhanced disclosures about how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations, and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. FASB ASC 815-10-50 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of, and gains and losses on, derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. FASB ASC 815-10-50 was adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2009 and did not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial positions.
 
In May 2008 the FASB issued FASB ASC 470-20-25 (prior authoritative literature FSP APB 14-1, "Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement)," which alters the accounting for Convertible Debentures. FASB ASC 470-20-25 requires issuers to account for convertible debt securities that allow for either mandatory or optional cash settlement (including partial cash settlement) by separating the liability and equity components in a manner that reflects the issuer’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate at the time of issuance and requires recognition of additional (non-cash) interest expense in subsequent periods based on the nonconvertible rate. Additionally, FASB ASC 470-20-25 requires that when such debt instruments are repaid or converted any consideration transferred at settlement is to be allocated between the extinguishment of the liability component and the reacquisition of the equity component. FASB ASC 470-20-25 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2009, and has been applied retrospectively, as required. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have an impact on the Company's results of operations or financial positions.

In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 820-10-65 (prior authoritative literature: FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 157-4, Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly) , which was effective beginning with our second quarter financial reporting. The FSP provides additional guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset and liability have significantly decreased and provides guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. The FSP amends FAS 157 to require interim disclosures of the valuation techniques and related inputs used to measure fair value and any changes to those valuation techniques and inputs. The FSP also provides additional guidance on defining the major categories of equity and debt securities measured at fair value in meeting the disclosure requirements of FAS 157. The adoption of FASB ASC 820-10-65 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
 
In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 825 (prior authoritative literature: FSP FAS 107-1, which amends SFAS No. 107, Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments), to require disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This statement also amends Accounting Principles Board (APB) No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting, to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at interim reporting periods. FASB ASC 825 was effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of FASB ASC 825 did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
 
In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 320 (prior authoritative literature: FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2, Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments ), which was effective beginning with our second quarter financial reporting. The FSP amends existing guidance for determining whether an other-than-temporary impairment of debt securities has occurred and enhances existing disclosures with regard to other-than-temporary impairment for debt and equity securities. The adoption of FASB ASC 320 did not impact the Company’s results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
 
In May 2009, the FASB issued Statement of FASB ASC 855 (prior authoritative literature: FAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events,”)  which establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. FASB ASC 855 provides guidance on the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. The Company adopted FASB ASC 855 during the second quarter of 2009, and its application had no impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date the accompanying financial statements were issued, which was November 20, 2009.
 
In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC (prior authoritative literature: FAS 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R)) , which changes the approach to determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and requires companies to more frequently assess whether they must consolidate VIEs. This new standard is effective for us beginning on January 1, 2010. The Company does not believe this statement will have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued FASB ASC 470 (prior authoritative literature :EITF Issue No. 09-1, “Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance” (“EITF 09-1”)), which clarifies that share lending arrangements that are executed in connection with convertible debt offerings or other financings should be considered debt issuance costs. The Company does not believe this statement will have an impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 In August 2009, FASB issued FASB ASC 820-10 (which amends Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Overall) to provide guidance on the fair value measurement of liabilities. This update requires clarification for circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the following techniques: 1) a valuation technique that uses either the quoted price of the identical liability when traded as an asset or quoted prices for similar liabilities or similar liabilities when traded as an asset; or 2) another valuation technique that is consistent with the principles in FASB ASC 820 such as the income and market approach to valuation. The amendments in this update also clarify that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the transfer of the liability. This update further clarifies that if the fair value of a liability is determined by reference to a quoted price in an active market for an identical liability, that price would be considered a Level 1 measurement in the fair value hierarchy. Similarly, if the identical liability has a quoted price when traded as an asset in an active market, it is also a Level 1 fair value measurement if no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required. This update is effective for our fourth quarter 2009.

(1)  Short-term loans relating to amounts used to finance construction of the Company’s manufacturing facility. The Company intends to refinance such loans on a long-term basis upon completion of the facility. Negotiations are underway with several banking institutions interested in granting a long-term mortgage facility.

On November 3, 2003, SES Switzerland received a loan from the Geneva (Switzerland) State Department of Energy (“ScanE”) of up to CHF1,000,000 ($965,661). The loan bears interest at a rate of 4%. SES Switzerland used CHF969,470 ($936,178) of this loan as of September 30, 2009 and CHF969,470 ($918,389) as of December 31, 2008. This loan matured on March 31, 2008. On April 2, 2008, the Company filed a request with ScanE to renew the loan for a period of 24 months on the same terms and conditions. By decision dated May 19, 2008, ScanE accepted the Company’s request that the loan be extended for a period of 24 months on the same terms and conditions. The new maturity date for the loan is March 31, 2010. Pursuant to the Canton Geneva Escrow Agreement dated September 15, 2006, Christiane Erne, Jean-Christophe Hadorn and Claudia Rey personally pledged 10,000,000 of their issued SES USA shares common of common stock as a guarantee for the original loan entered into on November 6, 2003. These shares now serve as a guarantee for the renewed loan dated May 19, 2008. The Company does not currently have any plans to repay the loan before its March 31, 2010 maturity date.
 
On January 21, 2004, ScanE granted the Company a credit facility of CHF1,000,000 ($965,661) to finance the construction of the Company’s new manufacturing facility. Release of these loan proceeds was contingent upon the Company satisfying certain conditions precedent, which were satisfied as of November 13, 2007. As of January 8, 2008, the Company had utilized the full amount of the loan, which has a fixed annual interest rate of 4%. The loan has a duration of 20 years and is secured by a mortgage certificate of CHF1,000,000 ($965,661) on the manufacturing facility. The loan is reimbursed in 20-equal annual installments of CHF73,581 (approximately $71,054), which include principal and interest. The first installment was paid in December 2008 thus reducing the principal to approximately $933,231.

SES Switzerland also has a Construction Credit Agreement with Banque Cantonale de Genève (“BCGE”) dated December 20, 2006 in the amount of CHF4,800,000 ($4,635,173), which is used to finance construction of the new manufacturing facility. The loan was amended on November 13, 2007 and increased from CHF4,800,000 to CHF8,500,000 ($8,208,119). Pursuant to the amended agreement, the full amount of the loan must be drawn down no later than the date construction is completed on the new manufacturing facility, which is  expected to occur during the fourth quarter of 2009. The Company used CHF8,438,096 ($8,148,332) of the loan as of September 30, 2009 and CHF5,423,310 ($5,137,555) as of December 31, 2008. The loan bears interest at a rate of 3.75% and is secured by a second lien exclusive mortgage certificate of CHF9,000,000 ($8,690,950) on the manufacturing facility.

On October 27, 2008, the Company signed a six month credit facility with ScanE for CHF5,000,000 ($4,828,300) to finance improvements on the manufacturing facility. The loan, which matured on April 27, 2009, is secured by a fourth ranked mortgage on the building. On July 1, 2009, ScanE extended the maturity date of the credit facility for an additional six months, commencing May 7, 2009.  The Company also successfully negotiated a reduction in the interest rate from 4% to 3% per annum, also commencing May 7, 2009.  As of September 30, 2009, the full amount of the loan had been used to finance improvements to the manufacturing facility.

On July 22, 2009, the Company entered into a loan agreement with BCGE for CHF29,430 ($28,420) to finance production equipment. The loan has a duration of 36 months and is reimbursed in 36-equal monthly installments of CHF871 (approximately $841), which include principal and interest of 4.54%. The first installment was paid in August 2009, thus reducing the principal to approximately $26,948, thereof $9,053 are reflected as short term loan.

On August 18, 2009, the Company entered into a loan agreement with BCGE for CHF245,557 ($237,125) to finance the certification of its SwissTile® product. The loan has a duration of 36 months and is reimbursed in 36-equal monthly installments of CHF7,188 (approximately $6,941), which include principal and interest of 3.80%. The first installment was paid in September 2009, thus reducing the principal to approximately $230,919, thereof $75,817 are reflected as short term loan.

On September 18, 2009, the Company entered into a loan agreement with BCGE for up to CHF3,000,000 ($2,896,983) to finance the construction of a solar power plant, which will be sold to a third party upon completion.  The loan matures on June 30, 2010 and bears interest at a rate of 5.75% per annum.  The loan, which is secured by, among other things, the proceeds from the sale of the solar power plant, may only be used to finance the stated project. As of September 30, 2009, no amount of the proceeds from this loan had been used.

As of September 30, 2009, all of the Company’s operations were conducted through its wholly owned subsidiaries, SES Switzerland and SES Prod, and were limited to the assembly and installation of photovoltaic panels in Switzerland. Commencing January 2008, the Company sold electricity produced by its Solar Plant to a local utility in Geneva. As previously reported, the Solar Plant was sold in June 2008. As a result, the Company’s operations are again limited to the assembly and installation of photovoltaic panels.

9.   Discontinued Operations

As noted above, the Company sold its Solar Plant in June 2008. The balance sheet and income statement have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the effects of discontinued operations. The Company sold photovoltaic electricity produced by the Solar Plant to a local electricity provider in Geneva based on a 20-year contract. This contract was cancelled on June 30, 2008 due to the sale of the Solar Plant.

The Solar Plant had been operational since the end of 2007.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, revenue totaled $0 due to the sale of this activity in June 2008. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, this discontinued activity generated income of $1,331,856 (gain on disposal of $1,185,704, revenue of $247,730 and expenses of $101,578). In 2009 there was no income or expense from discontinued operations.

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

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated audited financial statements and related notes included  in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.   The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements, including those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

As used herein, the terms “company,” “SES USA,” “our,” “we,” and “us” refer to SES Solar Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, and the terms “SES Switzerland” and “SES Prod” refer to our wholly owned subsidiaries, unless the context requires otherwise.

We are a Delaware corporation based in Geneva, Switzerland engaged in the business of designing, engineering, producing and installing solar modules and solar tiles for generating electricity. We have developed a new assembly technology for solar tiles that allows for higher quality electrical contacts, better performance and reduced costs resulting from our proprietary automation processes. We are constructing a manufacturing facility that will include assembly lines based on our proprietary technology to complete the development and testing of our new products. To date, while we have been engaged in developing and testing our new solar panel assembly technology, we have been developing the sales and distribution portions of our business by selling solar tiles manufactured and produced by us and third parties and by responding to quotations for our solar tiles to electric companies, local governmental agencies and private home owners.

Our business was commenced in 2001 by SES Société d’Energie Solaire SA (“SES Switzerland”), a Swiss-based developer of solar panels and solar roof tiles. On September 27, 2006, our parent company, SES USA, completed a share exchange agreement with SES Switzerland in which SES Switzerland became our wholly owned subsidiary. We then abandoned our previous Internet based auction website business and the SES Switzerland business of designing, engineering, producing, and installing solar panels or modules and solar tiles became the sole business of the combined company. In July 2008, we formed a second wholly owned subsidiary, SES Prod, to conduct our manufacturing operations. Because SES USA and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis are the successor business to SES Switzerland, and because the operations and assets of SES Switzerland and SES Prod represent our entire business and operations from the closing date of the share exchange agreement, the following discussion and analysis is based on SES Switzerland’s and SES Prod’s financial results for the relevant periods.

Overview
 
 This overview addresses our plan of operation and the trends, events, and uncertainties that have been identified by our management as those that we believe are reasonably likely to materially affect the comparison of historical operating results reported herein to either past period results or to future operating results.

 We have developed and patented a new assembly technology for solar modules and solar tiles. Our business plan includes the development of a new assembly line based on our proprietary technology, using a manufacturing facility in the suburbs of Geneva, Switzerland that is currently under construction to produce solar modules and solar tiles at a lower cost. We believe this new facility will enable us to produce solar photovoltaic (“PV”) modules that are larger than three square meters.

To implement our business plan, we will need to complete the design of the solar modules and solar tiles, manufacture and test the prototype panels, have them approved in accordance with European and other standards, manufacture them in series and sell them in major markets in Europe and eventually other countries around the world. Our plan is to complete the manufacturing facility and commence full scale production and sale of our new products during the first quarter 2010. While we await completion of our facility and work to bring our fully automated production lines into operation, we have reconfigured our production capabilities to manufacture our solar products on a manual and semi-manual production basis and in partnership with subcontractors.

Once our manufacturing capabilities are fully operational, we will have available a product line consisting of our SunTechTile® and SwissTile®   solar tiles and, in the future, PV solar modules. Historically, we have relied upon third-party vendors to supply us with component parts, such as PV cells, in order to manufacture and produce our products.

To date, we have generated only limited revenue from the sale of solar modules and solar tiles manufactured by us and third parties and the related engineering services required to design and install the same, and we have experienced operating losses from our early stage operations, which have involved developing and testing our new solar panel technology and commencement of the sales and distribution portions of our business by selling custom solar modules and solar tiles using an early stage technology. We anticipate incurring additional operating losses over the next few years as we complete the development, testing, prototypes and licensing of our new products and commence production. Our research and development costs and the costs incurred in manufacturing prototypes have been expensed to date. We do not believe that we can achieve profitability until development, implementation and commercialization of our solar products manufactured through our new assembling processes are operational.
 
 We believe the demand for solar modules and solar tiles will ultimately be substantial. According to the Energy Information Administration, global demand for electricity is expected to increase from 18 trillion kilowatt hours in 2006 to 32 trillion kilowatt hours in 2030. Over time, supply constraints, rising electricity prices, dependence on foreign countries for fuel feedstock and environmental concerns could limit the ability of many conventional sources of electricity and other alternative sources to supply this rapidly expanding global demand. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, solar energy is the only source of renewable power with a large enough resource base to supply a significant percentage of the world’s electricity needs over the next several decades.

However, over the near term there are significant competitive concerns with solar energy. As the cost of producing electricity from grid connected PV installations is higher than the current cost of electricity from fossil or nuclear plants, the PV market relies heavily on government subsidies and regulation concerning independent power producers. These regulations favor PV electricity in some, but not all, countries. Existing regulations are subject to change due to local political factors affecting the energy market, especially in Europe, where the process has been ongoing for 10 years. The major PV market in Europe is Germany, where the EEG law governs. We expect France will play an increasing role in the future due to current law. Other countries, including Italy, Spain and Greece, have similar but less favorable laws. The PV market is heavily dependent on public policies and, as a result, such policies present the greatest uncertainties for our products. Reductions of the feed-in tariff in Germany by 8% per year could affect our sales. Spain decreased its subsidies by 75% during 2008. Without continued and/or enhanced governmental support in the form of favorable laws and subsidies, the projected growth of the PV market will not exist, which could hurt our results of operations.

Our primary market for our SwissTile® product is Switzerland, which enacted a feed-in tariff that became effective May 2008. This tariff has 10 different values depending on PV integration and size. Due to the properties of our SwissTile® product, we believe that it will receive the highest value, which will be favorable for us.
 
Due to overwhelming demand, final subsidy decisions by the relevant Swiss grid authority regarding remuneration for electricity generated by solar power installations have been delayed. As a result of this delay, many of our prospective and potential solar power production customers have postponed new solar power installations as they await determination by the Swiss grid authority whether their respective installations will qualify for remuneration. While we expect that decisions will be made during 2009 and that we will have at least one large installation approved by the Swiss grid authority in 2009, any additional significant delays could impact our projected growth plans. The tariff will decrease for new entrants by 8% every year starting in 2010.

 Worldwide, annual installations by the PV industry grew from 0.4GW in 2002 to 4.0GW in 2008, and cumulative installed capacity reached approximately 12GW at the end of 2008.  Despite this growth, solar electricity still represents a small fraction of the supply of electricity. So long as governments and the market are focused on the ability of manufacturers to develop new technologies that reduce the cost of solar electricity, we believe that the demand for solar energy products will continue to grow significantly. This growth projection is based on continued governmental support, on the success of such manufacturing efforts to reduce the gap between the cost of solar electricity and more conventional and established methods of generating electricity, and on other developments affecting the world energy markets. In addition to the uncertainties associated with government subsidies and these other factors, it is also possible that breakthrough technologies might emerge in other areas that will reduce demand for new solar energy products. Furthermore, even within the solar energy sector, it is possible that developments in thin films or nanoscience could reduce the cost of PV cells or that future shortages in the supply of polysilicon, an essential raw material in the production of our PV cells, could impact our proposed new products and adversely affect our plan of operation.

 We are in ongoing discussions with strategic partners, including cell manufacturers, PV line manufacturers and special machine manufacturers to assist us with our new technology for module assembly. We are also progressing with the final stages of construction at our new manufacturing facility, which is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter of 2009.

During the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, we incurred capital expenditures of $2,708,170 to construct our new manufacturing facility. We also continued sales of our custom solar panels and SwissTile® solar tiles to customers during the nine month period ended September 30, 2009, generating revenue of $1,299,316 and incurring a net loss of $763,563.

  Based on current and planned projects that will be completed during fiscal year 2009, we believe that our cash flows used in operating activities for the remainder of fiscal year 2009 will be greater than our cash flows used in operating activities during 2008. In light of these operating activities, we believe that our operating expenses in fiscal year 2009 will be approximately $2 million, which we anticipate financing through revenue generated from operating income and with available cash and credit facilities. Management anticipates total capital expenditures of approximately $18 million for the new manufacturing facility, of which we have already financed $17.2 million, and $2 million for the assembly lines and related machinery, of which we have already financed $408,732. Depending on our production requirements, we may also require up to an additional $11 million to finance the purchase of raw materials to be used in the production of 2MWs of solar tiles. We anticipate financing the remaining capital expenditures on the manufacturing facility and assembly lines using available cash, loans and lines of credit, as well as a planned debt consolidation and refinancing of the existing construction loans owed on the facility. We will also require additional financing in order to purchase raw materials and expand our operations once our manufacturing facility is fully operational. We do not presently have any definitive agreements in place to secure any such financings or debt consolidation.
 
We expect to continue to experience losses from operations until we can generate significant revenue from manufacturing our new products. As a result of our continuing need to expand our operations and develop and market our new products, we expect to continue to need additional capital over the long-term in order to continue as a going concern.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 AND 2008
 
Net Loss 
 
 Our net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $120,799 compared to net loss of $856,403 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in net loss during the three months ended September 30, 2009 was due to $518,032 of favorable foreign exchange rate conditions between the Swiss franc and the U.S. dollar and a reduction in interest expense and general and administrative expenses during the three month period ended September 30, 2009.

Revenue and Cost of Goods Sold 
 
We recognize revenue on the completed-contract method, and therefore when projects are completed. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, we generated total revenue of $38,046 compared to $1,569 for the three months ended September 30, 2008.

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $17,560 compared to cost of goods sold of $1,335 for the three months ended September 30, 2008.

The increases in revenue and cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2009 are attributable to management’s increased focus on completing our manufacturing facility and producing our products on a large scale and moving away from smaller customized  installation projects.

Operating Expenses
 
Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $391,308 compared to $503,651 for the three months ended September 30, 2008, which represents a 17% decrease. Personnel, rent, research and development, general and administrative expenses, and depreciation and amortization expenses constitute the components of our operating expenses. 
 
Personnel expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $ 158,285 compared to $123,714 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. The increase is due to increase in personnel costs to develop the activities of our new subsidiary.

Rent and lease expenses decreased $10,024 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 due to the termination of the lease for Härkingen during the first quarter of 2009, as explained on note 7 of the accompanying notes to the financial statements.

Other general and administrative expenses decreased $109,945 for the three months ended September 30, 2009, mainly due to consulting fees.

We expect that as we continue to implement our business plan these expenses will increase accordingly.
 
Other Income (Expense)
 
Interest expense decreased to $9,979 for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $102,523 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease is due to a credit line with UBS Bank, which was cancelled during 2008, and interest expenses of $53,564 in connection with financing of the Solar Plant.  Additionally, the company capitalized higher interest expenses compared to the prior year period.

Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $0 compared to $7,567 for the three months ended September 30, 2008.  Interest income earned during the three months ended September 30, 2008 was received from time deposits.
 
Foreign exchange gain for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $260,002 compared to a foreign exchange loss of $258,030 for the three months ended September 30, 2008. Our wholly owned subsidiaries conduct substantially all of their business and incur substantially all of their costs in Swiss francs.  The foreign exchange gain for the three months ended September 30, 2009 is due to improved currency exchange rate conditions between the Swiss franc and the U.S. dollar, which is the company’s reporting currency.  See Note 4 to the accompanying unaudited financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - COMPARISON OF NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2009 AND 2008

Net Income (Loss)
 
Our net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $763,563 compared to a net loss of $355,790 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.  The increase in net loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared to 2008 is due largely to the fact that we generated income from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 of $1,331,856, which included a gain of $1,185,704 from the sale of the Solar Plant, as compared to income of $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 from this discontinued activity  (See Note 9 to the unaudited financial statements attached hereto) .

Revenues and Cost of Goods Sold
 
We recognize revenue on the completed-contract method, and therefore when projects are completed. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we completed several projects and generated total revenue of $1,299,316 compared to $34,161 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.

Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $882,735 compared to cost of goods sold of $3,092 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.  The increase in cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 is entirely attributable to the projects completed during the period.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were $1,249,490 compared to $1,522,444 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, which represents a 16% decrease. Personnel, rent, research and development, general and administrative expenses, and depreciation and amortization expenses constitute the components of our operating expenses. 
 
Personnel expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 were $ 467,152 compared to $405,957 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The increase is due to increase in personnel costs to develop the activities of our new subsidiary.

Rent and lease expenses decreased $12,967 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 due to the termination of the lease for Härkingen during the first quarter of 2009, as explained on Note 7 of the accompanying notes to the financial statements.

Research and development expenses increase $91,196 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 due to consulting fees incurred in 2008 in for the development of our production line and products.

Other general and administrative expenses decreased $209,193 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 mainly due to consulting fees of $470,787 incurred during the nine months period ended September 30, 2008 compared to $203,659 incurred during the same period in 2009..

We expect that as we continue to implement our business plan these expenses will increase accordingly.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest expense decreased to $27,577 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $322,520 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Of this variation, $172,755 refers to interest incurred for the construction of our new plant during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 which were only capitalized at year-end, while for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 the interest has already been capitalized. Additionally, for the nine months ended September 2008, we have incurred interest expenses of $67,485 due to a credit line with UBS Bank, which was cancelled during 2008, and interest expenses of $53,564 in connection with financing of the solar plant.
 
Interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was $0 compared to $46,756 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.  Interest income earned during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was received from time deposits.
 
Foreign exchange gain for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 increased to $96,923 compared to a foreign exchange gain of $79,493 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Our wholly owned subsidiaries conduct substantially all of their business and incur substantially all of their costs in Swiss francs.  The foreign exchange gain is due to improved currency exchange rate conditions between the Swiss franc and the U.S. dollar, which is the company’s reporting currency.  See Note 4 to the accompanying unaudited financial statements.

Net Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations, net of tax

The Solar Plant had been operational since the end of 2007.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we generated no revenue and incurred no expenses from the Solar Plant, as it was sold in June 2008.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, this discontinued activity generated income of $1,331,856 (gain on disposal of $1,185,704, revenue of $247,730 and expenses of $101,578).

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our principal cash requirements are for operating expenses, including consulting, accounting and legal costs, staff costs, and accounts payable.

As of September 30, 2009, we had negative working capital of $14,322,268 compared with negative working capital of $8,923,795 as of December 31, 2008, and our cash and cash equivalents decreased to $396,027 as of September 30, 2009 compared to $765,694 as of December 31, 2008. This increase in negative working capital is partially the result of decreased billings in excess of cost and estimated earnings over the comparable periods and use of available funds to finance our new manufacturing facility.

As of September 30, 2009, we had accounts payable of $1,106,795 compared to $526,168   as of December 31, 2008. This increase is the result of amounts owed to creditors for construction costs relating to our manufacturing facility.

At September 30, 2009, we had short-term debt in the amount of $5,883,074 compared to $4,769,635 as of December 31, 2008.

We believe that our current negative working capital situation is temporary, as we expect in the near term to restructure our capital financing arrangements into longer term loans with more favorable terms.
 
We currently have several loans outstanding with ScanE. On November 3, 2003, SES Switzerland received a loan from the Geneva (Switzerland) State Department of Energy (“ScanE”) of up to CHF1,000,000 ($965,661). The loan bears interest at a rate of 4%. SES Switzerland used CHF969,470 ($936,179) of this loan as of September 30, 2009, and CHF969,470 ($918,389) as of December 31, 2008. The maturity date for the loan is March 31, 2010. Pursuant to the Canton Geneva Escrow Agreement dated September 15, 2006, Christiane Erne, Jean-Christophe Hadorn and Claudia Rey personally pledged 10,000,000 of their issued SES USA shares common of common stock as a guarantee for the original loan entered into on November 6, 2003. These shares now serve as a guarantee for the renewed loan dated May 19, 2008. The company does not currently have any plans to repay the loan before its March 31, 2010 maturity date.

 On January 21, 2004, ScanE granted us a credit facility of CHF1,000,000 ($965,661) to finance the construction of our new manufacturing facility. Release of these loan proceeds was contingent upon us satisfying certain conditions, which were satisfied as of November 13, 2007. As of January 8, 2008, we had utilized the full amount of this loan, which has a fixed annual interest rate of 4%. The loan has a duration of 20 years and is secured by a mortgage certificate of CHF1,000,000 ($965,661) on the manufacturing facility. The loan is paid in 20-equal annual installments of CHF73,581 (approximately $71,054), which include principal and interest. The first installment was paid in December 2008 thus reducing the principal to approximately $933,231.

On October 27, 2008, we signed a six month credit facility with ScanE for CHF5,000,000 ($4,828,305) to finance improvements on the manufacturing facility. The loan, which matured on April 27, 2009, is secured by a fourth ranked mortgage on the building. On July 1, 2009, ScanE extended the maturity date of the credit facility for an additional six months, commencing May 7, 2009.  We also successfully negotiated a reduction in the interest rate from 4% to 3% per annum, also commencing May 7, 2009.  As of September 30, 2009, the full amount of the loan had been used to finance improvements to the manufacturing facility.

SES Switzerland also has a Construction Credit Agreement with Banque Cantonale de Genève (“BCGE”) dated December 20, 2006 in the amount of CHF4,800,000 ($4,635,173), which is used to finance construction of the new manufacturing facility. The loan was amended on November 13, 2007 and increased from CHF4,800,000 to CHF8,500,000 ($8,208,119). Pursuant to the amended agreement, the full amount of the loan must be drawn down no later than the date construction is completed on the new manufacturing facility, which is  expected to occur during the fourth quarter of 2009. We used CHF8,438,096 ($8,148,341) of the loan as of September 30, 2009 and CHF5,423,310 ($5,137,555) as of December 31, 2008. The loan bears interest at a rate of 3.75% and is secured by a second lien exclusive mortgage certificate of CHF9,000,000 ($8,690,950) on the manufacturing facility.

On July 22, 2009, we entered into a loan agreement with BCGE for CHF29,430 ($28,420) to finance production equipment. The loan has a duration of 36 months and is reimbursed in 36-equal monthly installments of CHF871 (approximately $841), which include principal and interest of 4.54%. The first installment was paid in August 2009, thus reducing the principal to approximately $26,948, thereof $9,053 are reflected as short term loan.

On August 18, 2009, we entered into a loan agreement with BCGE for CHF245,557 ($237,125) to finance the certification of our SwissTile® product. The loan has a duration of 36 months and is reimbursed in 36-equal monthly installments of CHF7,188 (approximately $6,941), which include principal and interest of 3.80%. The first installment was paid in September 2009 thus reducing the principal to approximately $230,919, thereof $75,817 are reflected as short term loan.

On September 18, 2009, we entered into a loan agreement with BCGE for up to CHF3,000,000 ($2,896,983) to finance the construction of a solar power plant, which will be sold to a third party upon completion.  The loan matures on June 30, 2010 and bears interest at a rate of 5.75% per annum.  The loan, which is secured by, among other things, the proceeds from the sale of the solar power plant, may only be used to finance the stated project. As of September 30, 2009, no amount of the proceeds from this loan had been used.

Our ability to meet our financial commitments in the near term will be primarily dependent upon revenue from the future sale of our manufactured solar modules and from the continued sale of our solar tiles and the related engineering services required to design and install the same as well as from the continued extension of credit from existing or new lenders. Management continues to anticipate total capital expenditures of approximately $18 million for our new manufacturing facility, of which we have already financed $17.2 million, and $2 million for the assembly lines and related machinery, of which we have already financed $408,732.  In addition, and depending on our production requirements, we may need up to an additional $11 million during the next 12 months to finance the purchase of raw materials to be used in the production of 2 MWs of solar tiles. 

If we are unable to secure additional financing and successfully implement our planned debt consolidation and refinancing of the construction loans owed on our new facility, management does not believe that our cash and cash equivalents, cash provided by operating activities, and the cash available from existing loans will be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for the next 12 months, and we will not be able to continue as a going concern.  If our future revenues do not increase significantly to a level sufficient to cover our net losses, we will continue to need to raise additional funds to expand our operations. In addition, we may need to raise funds sooner than anticipated in response to competitive pressures, to develop new or enhanced products or services, and to fund our expansion or make acquisitions. We may not be able to secure financing on acceptable terms or at all.
 
  Operating Activities
 
Net cash used in operating activities was $469,269 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $1,204,541 of net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. In local currency, use of funds for operating activities was larger during this period compared to the same period in 2008. However, exchange rate volatility has greatly offset the difference. Billings in excess of cost and estimated earnings decreased to $1,116,186 due to completion of projects and the resulting recognition of revenue. Inventory of our SwissTile® product decreased by $1,161,046 for the same reason.
 
Investing Activities
 
Net cash used in investing activities was $2,682,840 during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $2,719,153 during the nine months ended September 30, 2008. Although the investment in capital assets was significantly higher in the previous period, the total amount of investing activities was reduced by the proceeds from the sale of the Solar Plant in June 2008.

  Financing Activities
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $2,946,574 for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $1,787,766 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.   The increase in financing activities is due to bank loans received from BCGE and ScanE to build the new facility. During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, we utilized $2,970,018 of such financing.  In addition, we also used $23,444 of available cash during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 to repurchase 97,000 shares of our common stock in open market transactions.  See “Part II-  Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds”.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no outstanding derivative financial instruments, interest rate swap transactions or foreign currency contracts. We do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.
  
At September 30, 2009, we had an outstanding purchase order of EUR448,600 ($654,585) for the future construction of a new machine to be used in the manufacturing facility for solar module production. The company has made an advance payment of EUR269,160 ($392,750) for the purchase of this machine. The balance due will be paid upon delivery of the machine.

Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and which also are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including the company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

  CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
