Note 1 – History and Basis of Presentation

History

Global Clean Energy Holdings, Inc. is a U.S.-based, multi-national, energy agri-business focused on the development of non-food based bio-feedstocks.

The company was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah on November 20, 1991. Until 2007, the Company was a developmental-stage bio-pharmaceutical company engaged in the research, validation, and development of two drug candidates. In 2007, the Company decided to change its business and focus its efforts and resources on the emerging alternative energy fuels market. Accordingly, on September 7, 2007, we acquired certain trade secrets, know-how, business plans and relationships relevant to the cultivation and production of Jatropha. In 2008 we changed our name to “Global Clean Energy Holdings, Inc.” to reflect our energy agricultural business. In November 2009, we sold our remaining legacy bio-pharmaceutical assets to Curadis Gmbh.

On July 19, 2010, the reincorporation of the company from a Utah corporation to a Delaware corporation was completed, as approved by shareholders. In the reincorporation, each outstanding share of the company’s common stock was automatically converted into one share of common stock of the surviving Delaware corporation. In addition, the par value of the Company’s capital stock changed from no par per share to $0.001 per share. The effects of the change in par value have been reflected retroactively in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for all periods presented. The effect of retroactively applying the par value of $0.001 per share resulted in reclassification of $17,409,660 of common stock and $1,290,722 of preferred stock as of December 31, 2008 to additional paid-in capital. The reincorporation did not result in any change in the company’s name, ticker symbol, CUSIP number, business, assets or operations. The management and Board of Directors of the company remained the same.
 
Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Global Clean Energy Holdings, Inc., its subsidiaries, and the variable interest entities of GCE Mexico, and its Mexican subsidiaries (Asideros, Asideros 2 and Asideros 3).  The financial statements include the newly acquired Sustainable Oils, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary, from the acquisition date of March 13, 2013 thru the period end date of March 31, 2013.  All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Generally accepted accounting principles require that if an entity is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (VIE), the entity should consolidate the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the VIE in its consolidated financial statements.  Global Clean Energy Holdings, Inc. considers itself to be the primary beneficiary of GCE Mexico, and it’s Mexican subsidiaries, and accordingly, has consolidated these entities since their formation beginning in April 2008, with the equity interests of the unaffiliated investors in GCE Mexico presented as Noncontrolling Interests in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these financial statements have been included and are of normal, recurring nature.  These 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 year ended December 31, 2011,2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012,2013, may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.

Accounting for Agricultural Operations

All costs incurred until the actual planting of the Jatropha Curcas plant are capitalized as plantation development costs, and are included in “Property and Equipment” on the balance sheet. Plantation development costs are being accumulated in the balance sheet during the development period and will be accounted for in accordance with accounting standards for Agricultural Producers and Agricultural Cooperatives. The direct costs associated with each farm and the production of the Jatropha revenue streams have been deferred and accumulated as a noncurrent asset, “Deferred Growing Costs”, on the balance sheet. Other general costs without expected future benefits are expensed when incurredincurred.

Note 32 – Going Concern Considerations

The accompanying unaudited condensed 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 generated incomeincurred a loss from continuing operations applicable to its common shareholders of $160,952$238,518 for the three-months ended March 31, 20122013, and a loss of $778,544  during the year ended December 31, 2011. The Company has an accumulated deficit applicable to its common shareholders of $26,303,330$26,837,525 at March 31, 2012.2013.  The Company also used cash in operating activities of $663,143$725,387 and $2,933,448$663,143 during the three-month periodperiods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 and for the year ended December 31, 2011,, respectively.  At March 31, 2012,2013, the Company has negative working capital of $991,914$4,067,685 and a stockholders’ deficit attributable to its stockholders of $1,745,532.$1,095,239.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company commenced its new business related to the cultivation and production of oil from the seed of the Jatropha plant in September 2007.  Management plans to meet its cash needs through various means including securing financing, entering into joint ventures, and developing the current business model.  In order to fund its new operations, the Company has to date received $15,471,558$20,380,087 in capital contributions from the preferred membership interest in GCE Mexico I, LLC and(“GCE Mexico”), has issued mortgages in the total amount of $5,110,189 for the acquisition of land.  The Company is developing the new business operation to participate in the rapidly growing bio-diesel industry.  TheWhile the Company continues to expectexpects to be successful in this new venture, but there is no assurance that its business plan will be economically viable. In order to fund its new operations, the Company entered into an agreement with investors in order to form GCE Mexico I, LLC. These investors have made capital contributions as preferred members in GCE Mexico I, LLC equal to $15,471,558, and have loaned GCE Mexico I, LLC $5,110,189 which was used to fund the acquisition of land owned by the Asideros entities. The capital contributions provided by the investors fund the ongoing costs of developing and operating the Asideros farms, and also fund a portion of the Company’s overhead. However, the assets (including cash) belonging to GCE Mexico I, LLC and the Asideros entities can not be used by the Company to settle its obligations. As of March 31, 2012, the Company reports Cash and Cash Equivalents of $1,018,289, however this includes $884,087 that is allocable to GCE Mexico, I, LLC and the Asideros entities.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to generate new sources of revenues and to attract new equity investors.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.

Note 43 – Jatropha Business Venture

The Company entered into the bio-fuels business in 2007 by acquiring certain trade secrets, know-how, business plans, term sheets, business relationships, and other information relating to the cultivation and production of seed oil from the Jatropha plant for the production of bio-diesel, and by entering into certain employment agreements and property management agreements.  Subsequent to entering into these transactions, the Company identified certain real property in Mexico it believed to be suitable for cultivating the Jatropha plant.  During 2008, GCE Mexico’s subsidiary acquired the land in Mexico for the cultivation of the Jatropha plant.  In July 2009, the Company acquired Technology Alternatives, Limited (“TAL”), a company formed under the laws of Belize that had developed a farm in Belize for cultivation of the Jatropha plant and provided technical advisory services for the propagation of the Jatropha plant.  In March 2010, the Company formed Asideros 2, a Mexican corporation, which has acquired additional land in Mexico adjacent to the land acquired by Asideros 1. All of these transactions are described in further detail in Note 1 above and in the remainder of the notes.

Also on March 13, 2013, we purchased all of the membership interests of Sustainable Oils, LLC, (SusOils) a Delaware limited liability company, from Targeted Growth, Inc. and the other, minority owner of that limited liability company. SusOils is a company that, since 2007, has been engaged in the development, production and commercialization of Camelina-based biofuels and FDA approved animal feed.

The Camelina Assets include: three issued U.S. patents on Camelina Sativa varieties; a substantial portfolio of other intellectual property assets, all of the Seller’s intellectual property related to the research, development, breeding and/or genetic development of Camelina; germplasm; licenses, consents, permits, variances, certifications and approvals granted by any governmental agencies relating to Camelina operations; machines, equipment, tractors and vehicles used in Camelina operations; the name “Sustainable Oils” and the Sustainable Oils logo; and certain trade secrets, know-how, and technical data.
We currently intend to operate our Camelina business through a new subsidiary. We intend to capitalize that new subsidiary with the Sustainable Oils intellectual properties and operating assets that we recently purchased. In order to fund the operations and expansion of the Camelina operations, we intend to raise additional capital through the sale of debt or equity in the newly formed Camelina subsidiary. Sustainable Oils’ operations have been headquartered in Bozeman, Montana. We intend to continue to conduct our Camelina operations in Montana. Accordingly, in March 2013, we entered into a sublease with Targeted Oils, Inc., to sublease a portion of Targeted Growth’s research facilities and administrative offices in Bozeman, Montana.
We paid for the Camelina Assets by issuing to Targeted Growth, Inc. (i) a secured promissory note in the principal amount of $1,300,000 (the “Promissory Note” – see note 6 for more details) and (ii) an aggregate of 40,000,000 shares of our common stock.  Of the 40,000,000 shares, 4,000,000 shares will be held by an escrow agent for 15 months following the closing for the purpose of providing a partial security to support the indemnity provisions of the purchase agreement.  The 40,000,000 shares were valued at the market price on March 14, 2013.

Global Clean Energy Holdings, Inc. (“GCEH”) is a California-basedU.S.-based, multi-national, energy agri-business focused on the development of non-food based bio-fuel feedstock. GCEH is focusingbio-feedstocks.  We have full service in-house development and operations capabilities, which we provide support to our own energy farms and to third parties.  With international experience and capabilities in eco-friendly biofuel feedstock management, cultivation, production and distribution, we believe that we are well suited to scale our existing business.

Since 2007, our business focus has been on the commercialization of oilnon-food based oilseed plants and biomass derived frombiomass.  We began with the seedsdevelopment of farms growing Jatropha curcas (“Jatropha”) - a native non-edible plant indigenous to many tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world, including Mexico, the Caribbean and Central America.  On March 13, 2013, we acquired certain assets, patents, and other intellectual property and rights related to the development of Camelina sativa as a biofuels feedstock, and all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interests in Sustainable Oils, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.  As a result of the acquisition of Sustainable Oils, LLC and its operating assets, our biofuels operations have expanded into the development of Camelina sativa (“Camelina”) – an annual plant from the brassica family traditionally grown in northerly regions of the United States, Europe and Asia.  We are have focused on these two plants primarily because we feel they are complementary to one another, have the potential to produce oil seed crops economically, they generally require less water and fertilizer than many conventional crops, and can be grown on land that is normally unsuitable for food production or is fallow or idle due to crop rotation.  Both Jatropha and Camelina oil isare high-quality plant oiloils used as a direct replacementsubstitutes for fossil fuels orand as feedstock for the production of high quality firstbiofuels and second generation biofuels like bio-diesel,other bio-based products.  Both crops have been tested and proven to be highly desirable feedstocks capable of being converted into ASTM approved fuels. The term “biofuels” refers to a range of biological based fuels including bio-kerosene (a.k.a bio-jet fuel) biodiesel, renewable diesel, or bio-jet,green diesel, synthetic diesel and biomass, most of which have environmental benefits that are the major driving force for their adoption. Using biofuels instead of fossil fuels reduces net emissions of carbon dioxide and other green-house gases, which are direct replacementsassociated with global climate change.  Both Jatropha and Camelina oil can also be used as a chemical feedstock to replace fossil and non-food based products that use edible oils in their manufacturing or production process.  The residual material derived from the oil extraction process is called press-cake, which in the case of Jatropha is a high-quality biomass that has been proven and tested as a replacement for diesel fuela number of fossil-based feedstocks, fossil fuels and jet fuel.other high value products such as renewable charcoal, fertilizers, and animal feed. Camelina press-cake or meal is high in Omega3 and has already been approved by the FDA as a livestock (animal) feed or enhancement in the United States.

Our business plan and current principal business activities include the planting, cultivation, harvesting and processing of Jatrophathese oil seed plants to generate plant based oils and biomass for use as replacements for fossil fuels.fuels and other high value products.  Our strategy is to leverage our agricultural operations management experienceagriculture and specifically our Jatropha based bio-fuelsenergy knowledge, experience and capabilities through the following means:

·  Own and operate Jatrophabiofuel energy farms for our own account.
·  Own, operate and manage Jatropha farms throughin a joint ownership agreements.venture (JV) with either strategic partners or financial investors.  We currently operate twoown three Jatropha farms located in Mexico under such joint ownership arrangements:
·  Contract with third party farmers (such as wheat and barley farmers) for the first farm comprises 5,149 acres;farming of significant acreage of Camelina sativa on their idle land which is in rotation with their other crops in the second farm, consistingUnited States and many parts of 3,700 acres. The first farm is fully planted. We completed plantingEurope.
·  Produce and sell certified Camelina seed based upon our patented, high-yielding elite varieties to farmers in the second farm by the end of March 2012.  In 2011, through our joint venture, we have also acquired approximately 5,600 acres that is located in Mexico near our other two farms. We intend to commence developing this land into a third Jatropha farm later in 2012.United States and internationally.
·  Provide Jatrophaenergy farm development and management services to third party owners of Jatropha farms. We currently provide such developmentbiofuel energy farms and to non-energy farmers looking to utilize energy crops in rotation or inter-cropped with their existing crops.  Provide advisory services with respect to Jatrophafarmers wishing to certify their farms located inunder international sustainability or carbon certification standards, specifically the Caribbean, Mexico, Central AmericaRoundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials (RSB) and Africa, and plan to expand this initiative.Gold Standard Verified Emission Reductions (GS-VERs)

·  Provide turnkey franchise operations for individuals and/or companies that wish to establish Jatrophapurpose specific energy farms in suitable geographical areas.

InThe development of agricultural-based energy projects, like plant oil and related biomass, may produce carbon credits through the sequestration (storing) of carbon and the displacement of fossil-based fuels.  Accordingly, in addition to generating revenues from the sale of non-food based plant oils and biomass, we are seeking to certify our goal isfarms, where practical to monetize the carbon credits from the farms we owngenerate and manage. Under the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, a worldwide carbon credit trading market has been established where sellers sell their excess carbon credits and buyers purchase the carbon credits they need to meet their greenhouse gas reduction requirements. We have commenced the certification process necessary to sellmonetize carbon credits. However, to date, we have not yet made any carbon credit sales.

Organizational History/Current OperationsHistory

This company was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Utah on November 20, 1991.  In 2007, we entered the bio-fuels business. On July 19, 2010, we changed ourthe state of our incorporation from Utah to Delaware.  Our principal executive offices are located at 100 W. Broadway, Suite 650, Long Beach, Los Angeles County, California 90802, and our current telephone number at that address is (310) 641-GCEH (4234).  We maintain a website at: www.gceholdings.com.  Our annual reports, quarterly reports, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to such reports filed or furnished pursuant to section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and other information related to this company are available on our website as soon as we electronically file those documents with, or otherwise furnish them to, the State of Delaware.Securities and Exchange Commission.  Our Sustainable Oils subsidiary also maintains a website at www.susoils.com.  Our Internet websites and the information contained therein, or connected thereto, are not and are not intended to be incorporated into the Annual Report on Form 10-K at December 31, 2013 or into this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Our bio-fuels operations in Latin America are managed through our wholly owned subsidiary in Mexico, Globales Energia Renovables. Our principal farming operations are conducted on two farms, consisting of an aggregate of 8,849 acres located near the town of Tizimin in the State of Yucatan, Mexico. The following is a summary of certain factors relevant to an understanding of the operations of the Tizimin farms:

1.  The Jatropha plants in a portion of the first 5,149 acre farm in Mexico have now matured sufficiently to produce seeds. The trees that were initially planted after we commenced operations in Mexico in October 2009 are now starting to mature. As a result, we anticipate that harvests of Jatropha seeds will commence and increase in 2012 and thereafter, increasing our future revenues from our Mexican operations.
20
2.  Our Mexican operations are eligible for agricultural and other subsidies provided to certain farming operations by the federal government of Mexico. To date we have received a total of $1,388,000 in governmental subsidy payments, with additional amounts expected to be received later in 2012. These subsidies are spent in Mexico and help defray some of the initial start-up costs that we have incurred in establishing these farms.

3.  We continue to operate two nurseries for new Jatropha trees in the Tizimin Mexico area, which provide seedlings for our new farm and any additional farms that we acquire or develop in the future. We can also sell seedlings from these nurseries to other Jatropha farmers or developers.
4.  Fruit and seed handling, oil extraction facilities, germplasm resources, and livestock (sheep) capabilities are all being expanded in anticipation of our growing Jatropha operations. Oil extraction facilities are currently located on-site and we expect to relocate them to a new industrial site.
5.  Our Mexican farms are being developed for the purpose of producing feedstock for bio-fuels from Jatropha seeds. However, our development and cultivation of these farms has also enabled us to generate ancillary revenues from these operations. For example, we have received revenue from the sale of biomass (waste wood removed from our farms as the land is prepared for Jatropha planting), sales of sheep that graze on our lands and control weeds, and the sale of the presscake from the Jatropha seeds which remains after oil extraction.
6.  Total capital paid for land and expenses and operations, since inception, for the two operating farms in the Tizimin area (through March 31, 2012) was $15,471,558.
7.  In 2011 we entered into a services agreement to provide advisory services related to the development of a Jatropha farm in the Caribbean. In the quarter ended March 31, 2012, we recognized $153,935 of farm advisory revenues from the services related to the Caribbean development. In connection with providing these services, we leased approximately five hectares of land in the Caribbean to develop a research farm to provide these Jatropha development and evaluation services, in anticipation of a larger development for this same customer. We have also provided advisory services for companies related to potential use of Jatropha farming and the use of the products in the United States, South America and Africa.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets, liabilities, sales and expenses in the accompanying financial statements. Critical accounting policies are those that require the most subjective and complex judgments, often employing the use of estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Agricultural Producer. All costs incurred until the actual planting of Jatropha are capitalized as plantation development costs, and are included in “Property and Equipment” on the balance sheet. Plantation development costs are being accumulated in the balance sheet during the development period and will be accounted for in accordance with accounting standards for Agricultural Producers and Agricultural Cooperatives. The direct costs associated with each farm and the production of the Jatropha revenue streams have been deferred and accumulated as a noncurrent asset and are included in “Deferred Growing Costs” on the balance sheet. Other general costs without expected future benefits are expensed when incurred.

Certain other critical accounting policies, including the assumptions and judgments underlying them, are disclosed in Note A1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011.2012.

Results of Operations

Revenues. During the three-month periodthree months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 we recognized revenue of $105,627 and $619,521, as compared with $260,224 for the same period in 2011.respectively. The revenues that we generated in 2013 were primarily derived from Jatropha related advisory services we rendered to third parties, while most of our 2012 and 2011revenues represented (i)  agricultural subsidies received from Mexican governmental agencies ($465,586) (ii) fees for Jatropha related advisory services we rendered to third parties, (ii) subsidies from government agencies, and (iii) sales of Jatropha oil and Jatropha seeds and other products (waste wood, Jatropha seed husks, etc.).  The increaseRevenues during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 mostly decreased by $513,894 from the comparable 2012 fiscal quarter because we only received $17,147 in revenuesagricultural subsidies from the Mexican government in the current fiscal quarter, compared withto $465,586 of such subsidies in the same period in 2011 is the result of the receipt of governmentquarter last year.  Revenues received from agricultural subsidies an increase in our Jatropha farm advisory services to third parties and increased revenues generated from the sale of Jatroha products are paid to our Jatropha farm products. OurGCE Mexico I, LLC subsidiary and are used in its operations.

In the short term, our goal is to increase the amount of advisory and management services that we render to third parties in 2012order to generate revenues to fund our corporate working capital needs, and beyond. In addition, someto generate Camelina-related revenues from the Camelina business that we acquired in March 2013.  Our Camelina operations are expected to generate revenues from the sale of Camelina seeds, the sale of Camelina oil, and the sale of the Camelina biomass for use as feed for livestock.  In the longer term, our goal is to substantially increase the revenues derived from the operations of our Jatropha treesfarms, to rapidly ramp up our Camelina operations by increasing the amount of Camelina acreage under plantation in North America, and to continue to generate fees from advisory services that we first planted three years ago are maturing, and werender to third parties.  We anticipate that sales of Jatropha seeds will become a material source of revenues for the remainder of 2012 will increase significantly due to Camelina oil and seed sales we expect to realize from our Mexican operations.newly acquired Camelina business.

General and Administrative Expenses. Our general and administrative expenses related to the three-month periodthree months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were $560,139 and $627,467, compared to $570,529 for the same period in 2011.respectively, a decrease of 10.7%.  General and administrative expenseexpenses principally includesconsist of officer compensation;compensation, outside services such(such as legal, accounting, and consulting expenses;expenses), share-based compensation;compensation, and other general expenses such(such as insurance, occupancy costs travel, etc. The net increase in generaland travel).   General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012, comparedare, however, expected to the prior year was principally the result of increased administrative staffing and other administrative costs related to, andincrease as a result of our acquisition of the continuing expansionCamelina assets/business in March 2013.  In connection with operating the new Camelina operations, we have increased the number of operations ofemployees on our Tizimin farms.payroll, and have subleased a facility in Bozeman, Montana.

Plantation Operating Costs. For the three-month period andthree months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, we recorded Plantation Operating Costs from the operations of the farms of $570,156 and $172,437, as compared with $108,231 in the same period in 2011.respectively. This increase iswas mostly related to the expansiona work force reduction and a one-time charge of operations$547,000 for severance costs.  This charge was offset by a reduction in farming costs at our Mexico farms.

Other Income/Expense.  The principal component of Other Income/Expense for the March 31, 2012 fiscal quarter was the $514,473 gain that we recognized from the settlement of liabilities.  Gain on settlement of liabilities represents gains we realized by discharging historic liabilities (most of which were incurred while this company operated as a developmental-stage bio-pharmaceutical company) at less than the accrued amount of such liabilities.  There was a gain of $514,473 due to the extinguishment of promissory notes and other obligations.  Another significant component of Other Income/Expense for the current period is accrued mortgage interest. Interest expense for the three-month periodthree months ended March 31, 2012, was2013 increased to $216,775 from $192,800 compared to $139,796 for the three month period ended March 31, 2011, respectively. As of March 31, 2012, we owned approximately 15,000 acres of land in Mexico that is subject to interest bearing mortgages. Because we purchased additional land in the fourthsame quarter in 2012 as a result of 2011,the larger mortgage related to the third farm that we did not pay interest on the additional mortgages during the entire first quarter of 2011.acquired in October 2012.

Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations. DuringNo gains/losses from discontinued operations were recognized during the three-month periodthree months ended March 31, 2012, we2013 and $2,038 in losses was recognized a loss from discontinued operations of $2,038, compared to a loss from discontinued operations of $22,793 forin the comparable period in 2011.three months ended March 31, 2012. The income or loss from discontinued operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 principally relates to foreign currency exchange rate gains or losses on liabilities associated with our former bio-pharmaceutical business, which are denominated in euros.

Net loss attributable to the non-controlling interest.  Effective April 23, 2008, we entered into a limited liability company agreement to formOur Mexico farm operations are owned through GCE Mexico I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GCE Mexico”), with six investors (collectively,.  We own 50% of the “Investors”).common membership interests of GCE Mexico Iand one investor currently owns the other 50% of the common membership interests.  The proceeds from the sale of the preferred membership units, and from subsequent capital contributions, have been used to fund the operations of Asideros Globales Corporativo 1 (“Asideros 1”) and Asideros Globales Corporativo 2 (“Asideros 2”), each of which have acquired land in Mexico that, collectively, constitute our first two Jatropha farms.  Asideros Globales Corporativo 3 (“Asideros 3”) acquired our third farm in October 2011, but had no impact on the two Mexican farms through two Mexico subsidiaries, referred to asresults of our operations.  GCEH directly owns 1% of Asideros 1, Asideros 2 and Asideros 2.3, and the balance is owned by GCE Mexico.  Accordingly, we own 50.5% of Asideros 1, Asideros 2 and Asideros 3 either directly or through our common membership interest in GCE Mexico.  As such, our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Asideros farm entities.  Under GCE Mexico I, LLC’s operating agreement,Mexico’s LLC Agreement, the net loss allocated from Asideros 1 and Asideros 2these entities to GCE Mexico I, LLC is then further allocated to the members of GCE Mexico I, LLC according to the investment balances. We own 50% of the common membership interests in GCE Mexico I, LLC.  Accordingly, since the common membership interest did not make a direct capital contribution, all of the losses allocated to GCE Mexico have been further allocated to the preferred membership interest.  The net loss attributable to the non-controlling interest in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations represents the allocation of the net loss of GCE Mexico I, LLC to the preferred membership interests.

Net income/loss attributable to Global Clean Energy Holdings, Inc. The CompanyWe recorded net losses of $238,518 for the three months ending March 31, 2013 and a net income of $358,964 for the three-month period endingthree months ended March 31, 2012, as comparedrespectively.  Our ability to agenerate net lossincome in the future will depend upon the amount of $204,476advisory and management services that we render at the corporate level, the amount of revenues generated from our Jatropha farms in Mexico, and on the amount of revenues we generate from our new Camelina operations.  In addition to incurring farm operating expenses in Mexico for the three month period in 2011. Weour Jatropha operations, we will continue to accrue interest expense on the mortgages that encumber the Tizimin, Mexico, farms.  Although we anticipate that we will generate new revenues from bothour Camelina operations and that revenues from our Jatropha farm operations and our advisory services will increase, we are unable to forecast if, or when such revenues will exceed our operating expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2012,2013, we had $1,018,289$514,458 in cash or cash equivalents and had a working capital deficit of $991,914,$4,067,685, as compared with $676,780$941,579 in cash and a working capital deficit of $1,726,627$1,581,288 as of December 31, 2011. Only $98,5242012.  However, of our cash/the foregoing cash or cash equivalent balances as ofheld at March 31, 2012 represent funds to2013, only $12,999 may be used for our general corporate purposes, with the remaining balance anticipated to be used in the operations of the Tizimin, Mexico farms owned by thatthe GCE Mexico I, LLC joint venture.  As a result, the GCE Mexico I, LLC funds will not be available to us for our corporate working capital or other purposes, and are not available to us to reduce our indebtedness.  In order to fund our short-term working capital needs, we will have to obtain additional funding from the sale of assets held for sale, the sale of additional securities, additional borrowings, or from an increase in operating revenues. Outstanding indebtedness at March 31, 20122013 totaled $13,137,446.$19,747,158. The existence of the foregoing working capital deficit and total current and long term liabilities is expected to negatively impact our ability to obtain future equity or debt financing and the terms on which such additional financing, if available, can be obtained.  We incurred losses from continuing operations of $1,241,404 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, and have an accumulated deficit applicable to its common shareholders of $26,837,525 at March 31, 2013.  Because of the foregoing factors and our negative cash flow from operations, our auditors have concluded that there is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

To date, we have funded our corporate overhead and other public company costs and expenses primarily from (i) the sale of debt and equity securities, (ii) monthly payments we receive from our GCE Mexico I, LLC joint venture, and (iii) fees we receive for providing Jatropha related advisory services to third parties. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2012,2013, we received overhead reimbursements of $84,531 from GCE Mexico I, LLC.  We anticipate that our overhead reimbursements for the balance of the current fiscal year will continue at no less than the foregoing rate.  In April 2012, we raised $250,000 from the sale of share of our common stock (at a price of $0.03 per share).  In addition, we anticipate that that we will continue to receive advisory service fees in the near term.term, although the amount of such fees will depend on our ability to enter into new service agreements.  The amount of cash on hand and the anticipated cash receipts from GCE Mexico and the advisory service clients will not however, be sufficient to fund our working capital needs in the near term or for the next twelve months.  Furthermore, we do not have sufficient financial resources to fund our business plan (which includes the purchase of our own Jatrophabiofuel farms and other capital outlays). Accordingly, unless we enter into additional advisory service agreements or otherwise receive cash proceeds, (see the description regarding the sale of the Belize property below), we will have to obtain additional funding in the near future from the sale of our securities or the sale of assets held for sale to fund our cash needs.  No assurance can be given that we will be able to raise additional capital or that such additional capital will be on terms favorable to the company and its shareholders.

Our business plan contemplates that we will significantly expand(i) continue to develop our Jatropha business and operations (including establishing additionalpossibly developing and cultivating our third Jatropha farm in Mexico), and (ii) diversify our biofuel energy crop revenues from new revenues generated by our new Camelina operations.
22

Jatropha Operations.  To date, revenues from our Jatropha farms that are owned and operated by us for our own accountlocated in Mexico have not been significant and other locations). Althoughhave not met our expectations for various reasons, including weather conditions and cultivation techniques.  We are currently addressing these issues and we anticipate that revenues from the Jatropha farms we currently own through our GCE Mexico I, LLC joint venture in Mexico will commenceincrease in 2013 and become significant thereafter.  The operational expenses of the second quarterJatropha farms in Mexico are substantial and exceed the amount of 2012revenues that the farms are expected to generate from operations this year.  We have submitted a budget to the third party investor of GCE Mexico for the 2013 operating expenses of GCE Mexico, and increase significantly thereafter,he has acknowledged his intent to contribute sufficient additional funds to pay the budgeted cash requirements during 2013.  Based on these assurances, we anticipate that we will have sufficient funds to operate our Mexico farms in 2013.  No assurance can, however, be given that the costs of operating the Mexico farms will not exceed our budget or that our GCE Mexico investor will, in fact, fund the budgeted amounts.

Even if operations of the three Jatropha farms owned through GCE Mexico improve this year as expected and, therefore, generate significant revenues, we do not project that any cash distributions will be made to Global Clean Energy Holdings, Inc. for several years.  Under our agreements with our GCE Mexico investors, all net cash generated from the Jatropha operations that are conducted through GCE Mexico must first be used to fund the operations of those operations will first have tofarms, and any excess must thereafter be used to repay the capital contributed by our joint venture investors (plus their preferred return), for a combined.  The total amount of $18,833,234capital and the preferred return that must be paid to our joint venture investors before funds are distributed to us currently is in excess of  $25,948,000 as of March 31, 2012.2013.  As a result, the improving operations of the Mexico farms will not produce short-term cash for usor improve our liquidity, nor will the improving operations of the Mexico farms generate funds  that we can use for our business plan, for working capital purposes, or for the acquisition of additional Jatropha or other biofuel feedstock farms.  Because of our negative working capital position, we currently do not have the funds necessary to acquire and cultivate additional Jatropha farms for our own account.  Accordingly, in order to increase our farm ownership and operations, we will have to obtain significant additional capital through the sale of equity and/or debt securities, the forward sale of Jatropha oil and carbon offset credits, and from other financing activities, such as strategic partnerships and joint ventures.

Effective July 2, 2009,Camelina Operations.  In March 2013, we acquired the business and assets of Sustainable Oils, LLC, a company that has been engaged in developing Camelina products since 2007.  Sustainable Oils has generated over $20 million in revenues during the past three years, but has incurred a loss of approximately $5.8 million during that time.  The new Camelina operations will require a significant amount of additional cash to scale up its operations and to reach profitable operations.  Our goal is to operate the Camelina business that we acquired through a new subsidiary that we intend to form, and to capitalize that new subsidiary with the Sustainable Oils intellectual properties and operating assets that we recently purchased.  Furthermore, our goal is to fund the operations and expansion of the Camelina operations with new debt or equity that we intend to raise specifically for the Camelina subsidiary.  While we have been in discussions with a number of sources for the additional funding, we have not entered into any binding arrangements for the desired amount of new funding.  No assurance can be given that we will obtain the additional capital necessary to operate and grow our new Camelina operations.  In the event that we do not obtain the necessary amount of financing to properly operate and scale up our new Camelina operations, those operations are expected to continue to operate at a loss.  Without the additional funding, we may have to re-evaluate our planned Camelina operations.

As partial consideration for the Camelina assets that we purchased in March 2013, we issued a $1,300,000 promissory note.  The promissory note bears simple interest at the rate of ten percent (10.0%) per annum, and is payable upon the earlier of the following: (a) to the extent of 35.1% of, and on the third business day after a Qualified Funding; or (b) September 13, 2014.  The term “Qualified Funding” means all equity funding in excess of the $800,000, in the aggregate, received by us for our Camelina business.  Our obligations under the promissory note are secured by a first priority lien on certain tangible assets included in the purchase of the Camelina assets.  The promissory note is a full recourse obligation.If the holder of the promissory note has to pursue the collection of amounts due under the promissory note, the holder may not seize or take any action to collect any amounts due and owing against any of the Company’s assets (including its cash) related to a line of business other than the business of developing intellectual property and managing farming activities for the development of Camelina sativa used for biofuels feedstock.

Other Potential Sources of Liquidity.  We currently own all of the outstanding capital stock of Technology Alternatives Limited, a company formed under the laws of Belize (“TAL”), from its four shareholders. TAL owned and operated that owns a 400-acre farm in subtropical Belize, Central America. The Belize farm is inactive, and we are currently attempting to sell the farm.  In connection with the purchase of all of the shares of TAL we issued to the sellers, among other consideration,has outstanding four promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $516,139 Belize Dollars (US $268,682$260,689 based on exchange rates in effect at May 4, 2012)10, 2013), which promissory notes are secured by a mortgage on the 400-acre farm.  The new maturity datepromissory notes have matured, but the holders of the promissory notes have not declared a default.  We have reclassified the Belizean farm as an investment property and are currently is August 15, 2012.  If we are ableattempting to sell the Belize400-acre property.  We are currently in negotiations with a third party to sell them the property.  The former owners/current note holders have been informed of the possible land sale, and we have received the preliminary approval of the sale from the mortgage holders.  If the sale of the 400-acre farm before August 15, 2012 atis consummated, we expect to receive some of the approximate fair market value ofnet proceeds from that land, wesale, which proceeds will receive sufficient sale proceeds to repay the TAL notes in full and will also generate additional proceedsbe used for our working capital purposes.  No assurance can be given
23


We also expect to receive royalty payments from the legacy pharmaceutical assets we sold in 2009 to Curadis GmbH.  In February 2012, Curadis GmbH informed us that it has licensed certain of the technologies that we sold to it, and, as a result that we will be ablereceiving a royalty of 4.5% of all net sales of products sold using the licensed technology.  Certain of the intellectual property that we sold to sell the Belize farm.  If the farm isCuradis will revert to us if royalties from those assets do not soldexceed 300,000 euros by August 15,December 31, 2014.  In 2012 we will have to ask the noteholders for an extension or face possible foreclosure of the loans.received $24,921 from Curadis under this new licensing arrangement.

We presently do not have any available credit, bank financing or other external sources of liquidity. In the absence of additional outside funding (including proceeds from the sale of our securities, or entering into other joint venture relationships), we do not have the ability to expand our business or acquire our own Jatropha or other biofuel feedstock farms. If we issue additional equity or debt securities to fund our future capital needs, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. Should we not be able to increase the amount of revenues we receive from our advisory services and/or raise additional debt or equity funding, we will have to materially scale back our current and proposed operations or take other actions to preserve our on-going operations.

On December 22, 2009, we sold all patents, rights, and data associated with our legacy pharmaceutical assets to Curadis GmbH for 350,000 Euros and a revenue sharing arrangement that could pay up to 2,000,000 Euros should such legacy pharmaceutical assets ever be commercialized by the buyer.  In February 2012 Curadis GmbH informed us that it had licensed some of the ancillary patents and rights to an affiliated cosmetics company.  As part of that licensing arrangement, Curadis GmbH paid us an up-front licensing fee of 15,000 Euros, and agreed to pay us a royalty of 4.5% of all net sales of products sold using the licensed technology.  Curadis further agreed that if we do not receive royalty payments, on a cumulative basis, of 300,000 Euros under this cosmetics license by December 31, 2014, the licensed patents will be returned to us.  Curadis has also informed us that it is hopeful that the other, non-cosmetics legacy pharmaceutical assets will be commercialized within the next two to three years.  We will continue to maintain a security interest in such assets until such time as, if ever, we are paid a total of 2,000,000 Euros.  While we anticipate that we will receive additional payments from Curadis under this new license, the amount and timing of such license payments are unknown and are not expected to significantly contribute in 2012 to our liquidity.

Inflation and changing prices have had no effect on our continuing operations over our two most recent fiscal years.

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a) of Regulation S-K.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file with, or submit to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive and financial officers, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive and financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Based upon our evaluation, we also concluded that there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Agricultural Risks – General. AgriculturalOnce the trees at our Mexico farms fully mature and produce Jatropha seeds in the manner that we anticipate, the agricultural operations at our Mexico farms are expected to generate a largethe largest portion of our future revenues.  AgricultureHowever, agriculture operations are subject to a wide variety of risks, includingand no assurance can be given that the Jatropha trees will develop in the manner we expect or that they will produce the fruit/seeds in the quantities that we anticipate.  Agricultural risks that could affect our Jatropha farms include delays in blooming of the plants, changes in product pricing due to variations in supply and demand, weather, disease, input costs and product yield.

The Company’s Agricultural Assets Are Concentrated and the Effects of Adverse Weather Conditions Can Be Magnified. The Company’s agricultural operations are concentrated in the center of the Yucatan peninsula, near Tizimin, Mexico. All of these areas are subject to occasional periods of drought, excess rain, flooding, and possible Hurricanes.hurricanes. Jatropha trees require water in different quantities at different times during the growth cycle. Accordingly, too much or too little water at any given point can adversely impact production. While the Company attempts to mitigate controllable weather risks through water management and variety selection, its ability to do so is limited. The Company’s operations in Mexico are also subject to the risk of hurricanes. Hurricanes have the potential to destroy crops and impact Jatropha production through the loss of fruit and destruction of trees either as a result of high winds or through the spread of windblown disease. Because our agricultural properties are located in relative close proximity to each other, the impact of adverse weather conditions may be magnified in the Company’s results of operations.
