NXT ENERGY SOLUTIONS INC.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
As at and for three and six months ended June 30, 2010
(Unaudited)  (Expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated)

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. Organization and Ability to Continue Operations

 

NXT Energy Solutions Inc ("we", "company" or "NXT") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 27, 1994. NXT was continued from the State of Nevada to the Province of Alberta, Canada on October 24, 2003.

 

We own a proprietary technology called Stress Field Detection ("SFD®"). SFD® is a remote sensing airborne survey system that is designed to identify areas with oil and natural gas reserve potential. This technology was acquired from NXT's current CEO and President on December 31, 2005 following a ten year period wherein the company controlled the technology through a series of licensing agreements.

 

For the ten year period prior to 2006 the company had engaged in extensive activities that were effective in developing the technology to a stage wherein SFD® was both technically ready and had the required industry validation to embark on the commercial phase of the company. These early activities included conducting SFD® surveys for oil and gas industry partners on a cost recovery basis and participating as a joint venture partner in SFD® identified exploration wells. By December 31, 2005 the company had accumulated approximately $47.6 million of deficits in conducting these activities.

 

In 2006 the company began its commercialization phase by offering SFD® survey services to the oil and gas industry.  The company has earned $13.9 million of survey revenue, accumulated an additional $9.6 million in deficits, used a net $2.8 million in operating activities and invested $1.0 million in property and equipment since the beginning of 2006.  However, in the past one and a half years the company has used $3.7 million of cash in operations largely to establish a market for the company's services in Colombia.  

 

The company is in the early stage of commercializing its SFD® technology. Its ability to generate cash flow from operations will depend largely on its ability to generate revenues as contemplated by the business plan that commenced in 2009.  Management recognizes that this early commercialization phase can last for several years. While the company is in this early stage of commercialization, the company’s financial position is materially impacted by the loss or gain of any one client.  The company's ability to continue operations is dependent on attracting future customers through demonstrating the value that the company can bring to their exploration activities.

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The going concern basis of presentation assumes that the company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. There is significant doubt about the appropriateness of the use of the going concern assumption because the company has experienced losses in 2008 through to the present, has experienced negative cash flow from operations over these years and has working capital as at June 30, 2010 of $2.5 million that management believes is not sufficient to support the company's operations for the next twelve months without additional revenue or capital.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The company anticipates generating both net income and cash from operations in future years with its business model; however the occurrence and timing of this outcome cannot be predicted with certainty.

 

 

 

 

 

 

These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities or reported expenses that would be necessary should we be unable to generate sufficient net income and cash from operations as required in future years to continue as a going concern.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

 

 

 

 

 

Basis of Presentation

These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America in accordance with the same accounting policies and methods used in preparing the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. These interim statements should be read in conjunction with the 2009 annual consolidated financial statements as they contain disclosure which is supplemental to our annual consolidated financial statements and accordingly certain disclosure normally required for annual financial statements has been condensed or omitted.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Consolidation

We have consolidated the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries in the course of preparing these consolidated financial statements. All significant inter-company balances and transactions amongst NXT and its subsidiaries have been eliminated and are therefore not reflected in these consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2009 the company consisted of NXT Energy Solutions Inc. and two inactive subsidiaries in the United States.

 

In January 2010 the company opened a branch office in Colombia.

5. Derivative Liability

 

 

 

 

 

 

Under the FASB's fair value measurement standards, financial instruments that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are required to be classified into one of three categories based upon a fair value hierarchy. The company's only financial instrument recorded at fair value on a recurring basis are the vested contractor stock options. We have classified these derivative financial instruments as level II where the fair value is determined by using valuation techniques that refer to observable market data. During the six months ended June 30, 2010 we recorded a credit of $152,425 in regards to the change in fair market value of vested contractor options. This reduction is due primarily to the expiration in the period of 234,000 options. Credits and expenses are included in the line item ‘Administrative’ on the company's consolidated statement of loss.

Unvested options outstanding as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009 generally vest over the three year period starting from the date of grant dependant on the continued provision of services. The options vest one-third at the end of each of the first three years following the grant date. Options generally lapse, if unexercised, five years from the date of issue.

9. Commitments and Contingencies

 

 

 

 

 

 

On March 18, 2003 we were served a Statement of Claim naming  NXT and others as defendants. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants were negligent and in breach of a ferry flight contract  under which an aircraft was to be delivered to Greece. The aircraft crashed enroute. The Plaintiffs are seeking, among other things, damages in the amount of Cdn. $450,000 or loss and damages to the aircraft and cargo, and damages in respect to search and rescue expenses, salvage, storage, transportation expenses and pollution and contamination expenses. NXT was not party to the Ferry Flight Contract. The outcome of the claim is not determinable. Management believes the claim is without merit and we intend to defend ourselves against the claim.

 

The company has an office lease until October 31, 2012 which requires minimum monthly lease payments of $31,871.
