Note 3 – Going Concern Considerations

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred losses from continuing operations of $1,573,412 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and losses from continuing operations of $2,395,284 for the year ended December 31, 2014, and has an accumulated deficit of $34,210,969 at December 31, 2015.  The Company also used cash in operating activities of continuing operations of 280,088 and $174,968  during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  At December 31, 2015, the Company has negative working capital of $6,268,354.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company commenced its business related to the cultivation and production of oil from the seed of the Jatropha plant in September 2007.  On December 2, 2016, the three Jatropha Mexican farms were sold and operations were ceased as of December 31, 2015.  As of the year ended December 31, 2015, in order to fund its operations, the Company received $22,619,569 in capital contributions from the preferred membership interest in GCE Mexico I, LLC ("GCE Mexico"), and issued mortgages in the total amount of $5,110,189 for the acquisition of land.  The Company intends to continue to provide the renewable fuels and renewable chemicals markets with novel non-food based feedstocks that are economically, environmentally and socially sustainable by continually improving our plant varieties through modern genetic techniques and traditional and marker-assisted breeding.  Through this effort, the Company plans to expand both its Carribean and North American operations in both Jatropha and Camelina feedstocks. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on that plan's success. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
