NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND FOR EACH OF THE THREE AND NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS ------------------------------------- Geo Petroleum, Inc. (the "Company") is an oil and gas production company founded in 1986 and incorporated in the State of California. The Company engages in the development, production and management of oil and gas properties. All of the Company's properties are located in California. Certain of the wells on one of the Company's properties are used for waste water disposal services. 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION --------------------- In the opinion of the management of Geo Petroleum, Inc., the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly its financial position as of September 30, 2002, the results of its operations, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2001 included in the Company's Form 10K-SB. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. 3. NOTE PAYABLE ------------ In January 2002, the Company acquired land in the area of its Rosecrans oil and gas properties for $5,000 in cash and a noninterest bearing note payable of $35,000 secured by the property. The note had a final balloon payment of $32,000 that was due on July 1, 2002 and has not as of yet been paid. The Company is now in default on the note. 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES ----------------------------- Litigation The Company is a defendant in a criminal action filed by the State of California arising out of the Company's failure to plug and abandon two oil well sites located in the Rosecrans Oil Fields in Los Angeles County. To date, one of the two oil wells has been plugged, and plans are underway to plug the second oil well and complete the abandonment process. The Company has accrued at September 30, 2002, $35,000, which it estimates is necessary to complete the work required on this matter. The Company 8 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, CONTINUED ---------------------------------------- LITIGATION, CONTINUED believes that the remaining work can be completed and the criminal proceedings dismissed prior to the trial setting conference on this matter, which is scheduled in January 2003. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high quality financial institutions. Exposure to losses on accounts receivable is principally dependent on the individual customer's financial condition, as credit sales are not collateralized. The Company monitors its exposure to credit loss and reserves those accounts receivable that it deems to be uncollectible. CASH IN EXCESS OF FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION INSURED LIMITS The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Accounts are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $100,000. At September 30, 2002, the Company does not have any funds in excess of FDIC insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. RISKS OF THE INDUSTRY IN WHICH THE COMPANY OPERATES The Company participates in an industry that is characterized by competitive pressure, changes in the prices of oil and gas on a world-wide basis, federal, state, and local regulations governing production and development of its oil and gas reserves and compliance with various environmental laws and regulations. The Company's results of operations are affected by a wide variety of factors, including world events, general economic conditions, changes in average selling prices over the productive life of oil and gas reserves, the timing of production from new and existing proved developed and undeveloped reserves by the Company, its competitors, and others, the ability to produce sufficient quantities of oil and gas reserves in a timely manner, and the timely implementation of new and alternative reserve recovery process technologies. Based on the factors noted herein, the Company may experience substantial period-to-period fluctuations in future operating results. 9 GEO PETROLEUM, INC. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND FOR EACH OF THE THREE AND NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, CONTINUED ---------------------------------------- MINIMUM ROYALTIES The Company has commitments for minimum royalty payments on certain of its oil and gas properties, which total approximately $36,000 annually. PROPERTY LEASE RISKS The Company's oil and gas leases on its Vaca Tar Sands and Rosecrans properties contain provisions, which provide for minimum production requirements and periods. The Company's failure to meet those minimum requirements could result in a termination of the lease(s) and loss of all its rights thereunder. However, the Company believes it is in compliance with the lease(s) provisions and has not received notification from anyone to the contrary. 5. INCOME TAXES ------------ Reconciliation of the effective tax rate to the U.S. statutory rate for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2002 and 2001 is as follows:
2002 2001 -------------- -------------- Tax expense at U.S. statutory rate 34.0% 34.0% Valuation allowance (34.0) (34.0) -------------- -------------- EFFECTIVE INCOME TAX RATE - % - % -------------- ==============
6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS -------------------------- The Company rents its office facilities on a month-to-month basis at $5,000 per month from an entity that is wholly-owned by a company officer, who is a major shareholder. 7. LOSS PER SHARE -------------- Basic and diluted loss per common share has been computed by dividing the loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares for the period. 10 GEO PETROLEUM, INC. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND FOR EACH OF THE THREE AND NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7. LOSS PER SHARE, CONTINUED -------------------------
The computations of basic and diluted loss per common share are as follows: For the For the Three-Month Three-Month Period Ended Period Ended September 30, 2002 September 30, 2001 -------------------- ------------------- Numerator: Net loss available to common shareholders $ (210,327) $ (150,872) Denominator: Weighted-average shares basic and diluted 21,917,026 18,890,133 LOSS PER COMMON SHARE, BASIC AND DILUTED $ (0.01) $ (0.01) =================== ==================== Numerator: Net loss available to common shareholders $ (746,273) $ (590,344) Denominator: Weighted-average shares basic and diluted 21,090,888 18,775,795 LOSS PER COMMON SHARE, BASIC AND DILUTED $ (0.04) $ (0.03) =================== =====================
The following additional potential common shares were outstanding during 2002 and 2001, but were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share, because to do so would have been antidilutive for the periods presented.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND FOR EACH OF THE THREE AND NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 AND 2001 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 8. STOCK AND WARRANT TRANSACTIONS ------------------------------ COMMON SHARES SOLD IN A PRIVATE PLACEMENT During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001, the Company sold 322,500 shares of its common stock at $0.50 per share to private investors and received total cash proceeds of $161,249. In September 2001, the Company sold 312,926 shares of its common stock to private investors and received cash proceeds of $46,939. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002, the Company sold 2,178,499 shares of its common stock at $0.15 per share to private investors and received total cash proceeds of $326,775. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2002, the Company sold 669,999 shares of its common stock in a private placement for total cash proceeds of $100,500. COMMON SHARES ISSUED FOR SERVICES The Company issued 100,000 shares of its common stock for legal services for the period from January 2001 through December 2001. The shares were valued at the market price of the stock at the date the services were agreed to be provided. In addition, the Company issued 90,000 common shares that were valued at the fair value of the services of $36,000. Also, the Company issued 25,000 common shares for services, which were valued based on the market value of the shares at the date of issuance totaling $12,500. During the three month period ended September 30, 2002 the Company also issued 294,550 shares of its common stock for services valued at $68,912. COMMON SHARES ISSUED IN SATISFACTION OF DEBT During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002, the Company issued 173,500 shares of common stock in satisfaction of amounts due a related party of $54,805. 9. ORDER BY THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA -------------------------------- The Company's waste water disposal well located in the Vaca Tar Sands region of the Oxnard Oil Fields had been the subject of an ongoing dispute between the Company and the California Department of Conservation (the "State"). The basis for the dispute centered on the Company's use of its waste water disposal well and whether their injection of waste water was damaging the production of wells operated on adjacent leases. 12 9. ORDER BY THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, CONTINUED ------------------------------------------- In July 2002, the State issued an order directing the Company to cease injecting waste water brought from outside the Oxnard Oil Field and revoked the Company's state-issued waste water disposal permit for the Vaca Tar Sands region, thereby terminating the Company's only current source of revenue. Based on what the Company currently has knowledge of, it does not believe there is a reasonable likely chance that its actions related to the waste water well or the July 2002 State order will result in any significant environmental liability. As a result of the State order, the Company has determined that an impairment now exists to the value of the Vaca waste water well facilities and equipment and accordingly has recognized a loss from asset impairment of $159,851 in the quarter ended September 30, 2002. 13 ITEM 2.

OUR BUSINESS. Geo Petroleum, Inc. is a California corporation formed in 1986 primarily to develop a large tar sand deposit in Ventura County, California and to engage in the oil field waste disposal business. We are a minor factor in the California oil and gas industry and face competition from numerous companies, which have considerably more financial resources, property and manpower, than do we. We are in a weak financial condition and must rely upon third party sources of funds to conduct our proposed operations. Essentially, our only revenue producing operations are expected to be our Vaca Tar Sands and Rosecrans properties, each of which require significant cash expenditures to operate and develop. We are in the process of ratifying existing lease agreements and taking new leases with respect to Rosecrans mineral owners and we hope to make a capital investment of approximately $750,000 to bring 18 to 20 idle wells into full production on the Rosecrans property. The results of our operations for the second quarter of 2002 are discussed below. In 1998, we filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In December 1999 we emerged from bankruptcy under a plan which, among other things, provided for the issuance of approximately 1,900,000 shares of our common stock to our creditors and a change in our management. Present management was installed as part of our reorganization. At the time of our bankruptcy filing, we had sold or otherwise transferred a substantial portion of our oil and gas holdings and had interests in approximately 2,230 gross acres (2,030 net acres) of oil and gas leases or mineral rights, of which approximately 1,630 gross acres (1,410 net acres) were developed for oil and gas production and approximately 600 gross and net acres were undeveloped. After emerging from bankruptcy, our oil and gas holdings were approximately 2,000 gross and 1,830 net acres. Since we emerged from bankruptcy, our income from operations has not been sufficient to maintain the Company. On July 10, 2002, an Order was issued by the state of California Oil and Gas Supervisor of the California Department of Conservation directing us to cease injecting waste water brought from outside the Oxnard Oil Fuel into the Monterey and/or Pliocene Vaca Tar Sands. Additionally, that Order revoked the Vaca Tar Sands Unit Class II Commercial Waste Water Disposal Permit granted to us and dated June 16, 2000. 14 It was determined that the volume of waste water injected into our VTSU 3-1 Well is directly reflected in, and responsible for, the increase in volume of water produced by the wells on a lease adjacent to our lease. Additionally it was concluded that the waste water was injected into the Monterey Formation is invading the Vaca Tar Sands, and chemically and physically is damaging to the production horizon because of its salinity variances and particulate content, is mechanically damaging to the production of the wells operated on a lease adjacent to our lease and injection wells in that these wells become plugged with imported tank bottom material, thereby unduly inhibiting and preventing the economic production of oil from the Vaca Tar Sands reservoir. As a result of that Order, we have no source of revenue. Therefore, the only source of cash available to us at this time is from the sale of our securities. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 COMPARED TO QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001; NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2002 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001. During the quarter ended September 30, 2002, Geo had a net loss of $210,327 compared to a net loss of $150,872 for the comparable 2001 period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, Geo had a net loss of $746,473 compared to a net loss of $590,344 for the same period in 2001. Revenues from waste disposal operations decreased from $86,734 for the third quarter of 2001, to $1,486 for the three months ended September 30, 2002. The nine-month period ended September 30, 2002 also reflected a decrease in waste disposal revenues from $208,631 in 2001 to $118,721 in 2002. These increased net losses and decreased revenues are due primarily to the fact that the waste disposal property has ceased operation due to an order by the California Department of Conservation in July directing Geo to cease injecting waste into Vaca disposal wells. Further, this Order revoked the Vaca Tar Sands Unit Class H Commercial Waste Water Disposal Permit granted to us and dated June 16, 2000. This action by the Department of Conservation caused the serious impairment of the waste disposal property and it was written off in the quarter ended June 30, 2002. There were no significant revenues from oil and gas operations during the first nine months of 2002 or 2001. A small amount of revenue from the sale of oil in the amount of $8,491 was recognized in the third quarter of 2001. There has been no production or sales of oil in 2002. Lease operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 increased to $124,089 and $408,031, respectively, from $89,405 and $279,028 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001.This increase is due primarily to costs incurred during 2002 to plug and abandon a well located on the Rosecrans property and additional lease rentals on the Rosecrans property incurred in connection with settlement to plug and abandon two wells. Also, additional costs were incurred for consulting in connection with leases on the Rosecrans property. These cost increases were partly offset by reductions in salaries and wages, repairs, and utilities. Lease environmental costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 increased to $21,116 and $45,239, respectively, from $1,500 for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001.This increase represents additional costs incurred to continue cleaning up the Rosecrans property and the cost associated with a fire that occurred on the Rosecrans property during the third quarter of 2002. Professional fees decreased from $56,482 and $227,611 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 to $26,884 and $127,152 for the periods in 2002. This decrease is due to efforts made by management to decrease Geo's administrative costs. Some fees paid in 2001 to accounting and law firms were either not repeated in 2002 or the amount of services rendered was decreased. General and administrative expenses decreased from $68,792 and $246,250 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 to $36,038 and $105,917 for the same periods in 2002. This decrease is due primarily to ongoing efforts made by management to decrease Geo's administrative expenses. 15 A loss from impairment in the amount of $159,851 was recorded in the second quarter of 2002 to write off the remaining cost basis of the waste disposal property. As discussed above, this asset was seriously impaired by the order from the California Department of Conservation to cease operations. Reorganization items decreased from $21,618 and $35,773 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 to $2,165 and $5,911 for the periods in 2002. Reorganization items represent the minimal ongoing costs incurred in connection with the bankruptcy filings and reorganization of the Company. These costs should decrease to zero in the near future. CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY. FINANCIAL POSITION. As of September 30, 2002 the Company had cash or cash equivalents of $3,144 and current assets of $32,727 and total assets of $614,545. Although cash increased a small amount from $406 as of December 31, 2001 to $3,144 on September 30, 2002, current assets and total assets decreased by $87,830 and $219,485, respectively. The decrease in current assets is the results of the collection of receivables and the expensing of prepaid assets. Total assets decreased primarily due to the write-off of the waste disposal property. As of September 30, 2002, the Company had current liabilities totaling $516,370. This represents a decrease of $43,171 due primarily to the pay down of a line of credit owed to a related party. This related party liability decreased from $121,802 at December 31, 2001 to $34,539 at September 30, 2002. This decrease was partially offset by the incursion of additional liabilities related to the Rosecrans property in the amount of $31,400 and additional accrued expenses. Geo continues to operate at a deficit and as of September 30, 2002, had an accumulated deficit of $12,138,966. For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, Geo had negative cash flows from operating activities of $384,538. This includes expenditures for lease operations, payroll, professional fees, impairment of assets and general and administrative expenses. Investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2002 was comprised of the incurrence of a liability in the amount of $40,000 in connection with the purchase of a fee interest in land related to the Rosecrans property. This land holds one well that is not producing. Management does not believe that current assets provide the necessary liquidity and capital to fund current growth plans. Geo is actively seeking additional debt and/or equity financing to continue operations and fund future growth. The need for additional capital in the future is greater without revenue from the waste disposal property. Another potential source of liquidity is the future cash flow from the Kentucky property. During the first quarter of 2002, Geo and its partners funded and began the completion of a deep test well located in the southern part of the Illinois Basin in Kentucky, the J.H. Brooks No. 1. Completion of the well was delayed by severe weather in the area and other factors; the well is now in the process of undergoing testing and completion. Management expects the well to begin generating revenue sometime in the first quarter of 2003. Geo owns an option for a 25% carried working interest in the J.H. Brooks #1. The well is located on the Hammonville-Magnolia lease block, which extends over a fifty thousand acre area of interest. Geo expects to participate in another deep gas well in sometime during 2003. Cash flow from these wells will provide Geo necessary operating capital in the future. Other than as described above, there are no trends, events, or uncertainties that are likely to have a material impact on the short or long term liquidity of the Company. There are no known trends, events or uncertainties reasonably expected to have a material impact on the revenues or income from continuing operations of the Company. Any income or loss generated will be from continuing operations. 16 INFLATION. In recent years inflation has not had a significant impact on us, our operations or our financial condition. TRENDS. During 2001, oil prices declined to a low of $17.48 per barrel (West Texas Intermediate spot price) in November 2001. Although recent spot prices for WTI have recovered to approximately $26 per barrel, they have not approached the high price of $34.12 experienced in March 2000. This decrease has affected the operational viability of Geo's existing oil properties. In addition, 2001 saw the average price of natural gas fall from $6.37 per MCF in the first quarter of 2001 to $2.51 by the end of the year. Despite these downward trends, prices seem to have stabilized and it is unlikely that they will fall to former lows seen in earlier years. Forecasts published by the DOE Energy Information Administration project prices for WTI to range between $27 and $30 per barrel while natural gas prices are projected to range between $3 and $4 per MCF during the next twelve months. The average price for WTI in September 2002 was approximately $27 while spot wellhead prices for natural gas have been weaving above and below $3.50 per MCF since mid-September. This sharp price volatility, which occurred over the spring and early summer months, has recently become calmer now that the summer is more than half over and a clearer picture of the likely winter storage situation emerges. 17 PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. We are a defendant in a criminal action filed by the State of California arising out of our failure to plug and abandon two oil well sites located in the Rosecrans Oil Fields in Los Angeles County. To date, one of the two oil wells has been plugged, and plans are underway to plug the second oil well and complete the abandonment process. We estimate that this work will cost $35,000. We believe that the remaining work can be completed and the criminal proceedings dismissed prior to the trial setting conference on this matter, which is scheduled in January 2003. From time to time, we may be involved in other legal proceedings, including those arising from our operations and the amounts due suppliers or royalty owners. None of such proceedings are generally considered material to our operations or financial condition. ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2002, we sold 669,999 shares of our common stock at $.15 per share in a private placement for total cash proceeds of $100,500. These shares were issued pursuant to the provisions of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant thereto. These shares were offered to purchasers whom we believe are "accredited investors", as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D, and who have the qualifications necessary to permit these shares to be offered and sold in reliance upon an exemption from registration pursuant to the Act for transactions not involving any public offering. During the three-month period ended September 30, 2002 we also issued 294,550 shares of our common stock for services valued at $68,912. These shares were issued pursuant to the provisions of Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant thereto. ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES In January 2002, we acquired land in the area of its Rosecrans oil and gas properties for $5,000 in cash and a noninterest bearing note payable of $35,000 secured by the property. The note had a final balloon payment of $32,000 that was due on July 1, 2002 and has not as of yet been paid. We are now in default on the note. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS None. ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION None. ITEM 6. EXHIBITS AND REPORTS ON FORM 8-K (a) Exhibits None. (b) Reports on Form 8-K On August 7, 2002, we filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose the order by the California Department of Conservation directing us to cease injecting waste into Vaca disposal wells. 18 SIGNATURES In accordance with the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
