NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR PURPOSES OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS

OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995

This Annual Report contains historical information as well as forward- looking statements. Statements looking forward in time are included in this Annual Report pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results in future periods to be materially different from any future performance suggested herein. We wish to caution readers that in addition to the important factors described elsewhere in this Form 10-K, the following forward-looking statements, among others, sometimes have affected, and in the future could affect, our actual results and could cause our actual consolidated results during 2013, and beyond, to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on our behalf.

Item 1. Business.

Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms "the Company," "we," "our" and "us" refers to Delta Mutual, Inc., and, as the context requires, its consolidated subsidiaries.

Background

We were incorporated under the name Delta Mutual, Inc. on November 17, 1999, in the State of Delaware. In 2003, we established business operations focused on providing environmental and construction technologies and services.  Our operations in the Far East (Indonesia) and our construction operations in Puerto Rico were discontinued in 2008.

Effective March 4, 2008, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests in the parent of South American Hedge Fund LLC, (sometimes herein referred to as “SAHF”).  For accounting purposes, the transaction was treated as a recapitalization of the Company, as of March 4, 2008, with the parent of SAHF as the acquirer. SAHF maintains a branch office in Argentina, where it is engaged in oil and gas exploration and development activities.

Dr. Daniel R. Peralta, our President and Chief Executive Officer, director, and major stockholder, and his wife died in their home November 7, 2012. Dr. Peralta was responsible for initiating our efforts to acquire and develop oil and gas concessions in Argentina. Our board has appointed Malcolm Sherman, who was our Executive Vice President, as President and Chief Executive Officer and elected Santiago Peralta, the son of Dr. Peralta, as a member of our Board of Directors.

Our principal offices are located at 16427 North Scottsdale Road, Suite 410, Scottsdale, AZ 85254.Our telephone number is (480)483-0420. Our common stock is quoted on the Over-the-Counter Electronic Bulletin Board under the symbol "DLTZ.OB".

General

We are an independent oil and gas company engaged in oil and gas concession investments, exploitation, production and exploration activities primarily in Argentina.  In addition, we have ownership interests in certain mineral rights that are located in Argentina.

We are currently involved in developing our existing oil and gas properties discussed below and securing additional concessions in Argentina which either are producing economical quantities of oil and gas or which demonstrate favorable characteristics for well “workovers” with a history of excellent production.  Some of these concessions require workover procedures to bring them up to profitable production. Several of the projects now being visited and discussed have multiple producing wells, as well as a history of excellent production. It is the goal of the Company to target these concessions as compared to concessions which will be exploratory and would require drilling new wells.

Final contracts and documentation are expected to be completed in May 2013 on a concession area where one productive oil and gas well was drilled in the 1980’s, with positive pressure and no water. Upon conclusion of final contracts, together with our partners Grasta Petroleum and PPL, we plan to develop the block, commencing with two seismic interpretations and a hydrocarbon micro seepage survey prior to a workover of the previously drilled well utilizing a local rig company.

Business Strategy

The key elements of our business strategy are to:

● Make accretive acquisitions of producing properties generally characterized by long-lived reserves with stable production and reserve development potential;

● Add proved reserves and maximize cash flow and production through development projects and operational efficiencies; and

● Engage in adjacent exploration drilling where evaluation of the property is positive.

Our investments have focused on concessions where there are shut-in, plugged and abandoned wells that have, in our assessment, a high probability of additional recovery of reserves through revitalization processes that are commonly used in the oil and gas industry. The revitalization processes are directed toward bringing wells back into production or to enhance production with newer technology.

Specifically, we have focused, and plan to continue to focus, on the following investments in South America.

Our Oil and Gas Investments

Our main source of revenue will derive from the sale of the crude oil and natural gas produced from the oil and gas concessions in which we have made investments. In August 2007, SAHF signed agreements to purchase partial ownership interests in four oil and gas concessions in Northern Argentina. The joint venture owning these concessions then started the process to obtain the necessary government and environmental operating permits for the commercial exploitation of these concessions. While we are not the operators of certain of these concessions, we generally have representation on the operating committees that are responsible for managing the business affairs of these concessions.

At December 2012 the SAHF participations in the Argentina concessions are as follows:

Block	Province	Status	Delta [SAHF] %	Partner(s)
Jollin	Salta	Testing	10% CO	JHP (China), Maxipetrol
Tonono	Salta	Testing	10% CO	JHP (China), Maxipetrol
Tartagal	Salta	2 Work over wells drilled; 20 prospects	9% CO	New Times Energy (HK), Maxipetrol
Morillo	Salta	3D seismic interpretation; 2 exploratory wells to be drilled	9% CO	New Times Energy (HK), Maxipetrol
Guemes	Salta	Drill Complete	20%	Ketsal
Valle de Lerma	Salta	Workover well on adjacent property to be assigned by Salta Government	60%	Remsa, PetroNexus, Grasta

*CO means a carryover interest in the project.

** Of these five properties, SAHF and its joint venture partner have made initial investments in Guemes.

*** In the Jollin, Tonono and Tartagal, and Morillo concessions the carry over mode relieved SAHF from the payment of canon, landlord fees of any kind or any other expense until production is realized. In the exploratory area Guemes, proportional exploratory canons were paid as explained in the financials.

Agreements with Principle Petroleum Limited

Effective March 30, 2012, we entered into an Asset Purchase and Cooperation Agreement (the “Cooperation Agreement”) with Principle Petroleum Limited (“PPL”), headquartered in the British Virgin Islands.  Under the Cooperation Agreement, PPL agreed to pay us $7,000,000 for certain exploration and exploitation rights to oil and gas deposits and certain bidding rights held by Delta on the following areas: Valle de Lerma in the province of Salta; San Salvador de Jujuy; Libertador General San Martin in the province of Jujuy; and Selva Maria in the province of Formosa.  The San Salvador and Lebertador concessions have since been awarded by the government to another party. Pursuant to a separate Agreement dated March 31, 2012, we agreed with PPL to assign and transfer 50% of SAHF's ownership of the Tartagal and Morillo (i.e., a 9% interest in the concession) to PPL for a purchase price of $500,000. PPL has also agreed in an Undertaking to provide funds to the operating entities of Valle de Lerma and Selva Maria, in the aggregate amount of up to $10,000,000 (Selva Maria is pending for approval from the government, which is standard procedure in Argentina). In all of the concession interests mentioned in the Cooperation Agreement and the other agreements, except for Tartagal and Morillo, SAHF will be the operator.

Jollin and Tonono Concessions

SAHF has a 10% ownership interest in the Jollin and Tonono oil and gas concessions located in Salta Province, Argentina. SAHF originally purchased an 20% carry-over interest in the Jollin and Tonono concessions on May 15, 2007, and subsequently increased its ownership to 47%, 20% of which was carry-over and 27% which was working.  Subsequently, in 2008, SAHF sold half of its stake, giving SAHF a 10% carry-over and 13.5% working interest in the concessions. SAHF in 2009 transferred 13.5% to Maxipetrol, under an arrangement where SAHF’s remaining 10% interest would be in a carry-over mode.

SAHF received its foreign registration in Argentina and was admitted as a member of the joint venture on July 2, 2010.

Tartagal and Morillo Concessions

Tartagal Oriental - The Tartagal Oriental (“Tartagal”) exploration license area, extended to February 2014, covers 7,065 square kilometers in Salta Province, located in the northern part of Argentina. Exploration dates back into the mid 20th century, and 22 wells, some oil producers, have been drilled in Tartagal Oriental since the 1960s. Of the 22 wells that have been drilled in Tartagal Oriental in the past decades, several were judged to be workover candidates by New Times Energy Corporation Limited, Hong Kong, who purchased 60% of the ownership in the Tartagal and Morillo oil and gas concessions, and has invested approximately $60 million to date on geological studies, 2D and 3D seismic surveys on both blocks and two work-over drills and an exploratory well drill in Tartagal. Production from the two Campo Alcoba test wells commenced in 2011 and has continued into the 2012 second quarter. A work over of one the two previously reopened wells is planned, and currently an analytic test to drill one more exploratory well is under way.

4

Morillo - The Morillo exploration license area covers 3,518 square kilometers in Salta Province, contiguous with and south of the Tartagal Oriental license. Granted at the same time as Tartagal Oriental, the Morillo license was also extended to February 2014. In 2011, High Luck ordered a 274 square kilometer 3D seismic to be shot in the southwestern corner of the property because of a recent discovery made by Petrobras in an adjacent block. Once the data is processed, a decision will be made as to further drilling.

SAHF had 9% ownership of the Tartagal and Morillo oil and gas concessions located in Salta Province, Argentina, at December 31, 2010. Subsequent to year end, our ownership interest was increased to 18% in March 2011, and we sold 50% of that interest to PPL in 2012.

On May 11, 2011, SAHF received the Argentinean Salta Government’s approval for its 18% ownership share for the Tartagal and Morillo concessions.

Exploration Rights

(Guemes Block)

On February 6, 2008, SAHF purchased 40% of the oil and gas exploration rights to five geographically defined areas in the Salta Province of Northern Argentina for $697,000. During 2008, SAHF sold 50% of its rights in these concessions to a third party. Provided certain development activities are undertaken by owners, these exploration rights will remain in effect through the year 2015. The initial development costs and fees were paid by the majority owner and SAHF incurred no additional expenses related to this investment in 2008.

Exploratory drilling activities commenced in April 2010 on the Guemes Block and the first well was spud in September 2010. In July 2010, SAHF found positive traces of the presence of natural gas and hydrocarbons of low-density quality through its analysis of core samples. Well logging while drilling also confirmed the potential existence of formations with sufficient hydrocarbons to make the well economically productive. Production testing to verify the commercial sustainability of the well still needs to be done.

The UTE for this concession is in litigation with the drilling company that drilled the test well and has sued for an alleged $3,000,000 of additional expenses over and above the contract amount under the fixed price drilling contract, where the contract amount was set at $1,000,000, and overage amounts were to be set prior to execution.  The operator of the concession, Ketsal, is in the process of settlement negotiations. SAHF has no obligation or liability for any amounts paid in settlement of, or as a result of an adverse judgment in, this litigation. However, the resolution of this lawsuit may affect the schedule for the future development of this property.

Valle de Lerma Block

On August 10, 2011, the Company’s tender offer, made through our wholly-owned subsidiary, SAHF, for the ownership right to explore, and eventually, produce oil and natural gas in the block known as “Valle de Lerma” was declared the winning bid by the Salta provincial government. SAHF made the offer in a joint venture agreement with Remsa, PetroNexus and Grasta SA, a local mid-size gasoline refinery located in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The joint venture paid US$5,000 to enter the international bid and presented a business plan, a contingency plan and economic offer to the government of Salta. In this offer, the Company committed 401 work units in the form of 2D seismic reinterpretation, 3D seismic shooting, and geochemistry for the first exploration period, which is 4 years. Each work unit has the equivalent of US$5,000, so the joint venture committed US$2,005,000 across a four-year span in the form of "soft" work units, or work units used to discover potential oil fields. The offer was originally approved by Resolution from the Secretary of Energy of the Salta Government, and then approved by a governor's decree in Salta published on August 11, 2011 in the daily bulletin of the province. In addition, the joint venture took out an insurance policy through Fianzas y Credito for the 10% of the committed amount for US$1000 per quarter, as is mandatory.

The Valle de Lerma block is located in the province of Salta in the northwestern region of Argentina and has an area of 5259 km2. SAHF has done the measurement and survey study and filed an environmental impact study, which was approved.  Upon completion of the study it was determined that the actual well site was within the boundaries of the City of Salta, where government restrictions do not allow oil to be produced from this site.  We are currently negotiating with the government to add an additional site to the concession area from among three sites adjacent to the concession area with similar wells. When the extension of the concession area is accomplished, we will commence work on the new site, following receipt of all government approvals.  SAHF holds a majority of the license interest and is the responsible operator. The license allows SAHF 20 years to explore and produce hydrocarbons with a renewal option of ten more years. The Company will commence the Valle de Lerma well work over with a local rig company. The exploration terms are four years for the first period, three years for the second and two years for the last period.

The Valle de Lerma block has been explored in the past by YPF and several seismic 2D lines were extensively performed to research the area. Two Exploratory Wells were drilled in December 1990 and November 1994 by a private company; both indicated hydrocarbon traces or presence. In the second well, named "La Troja" (total depth of 1433 mbbp), an oil production of 28 API density was tested at 1277 mbbp for a test time of 19 hs. For strategic reasons, the wells were capped.

SAHF currently owns 60% of the rights to explore Valle de Lerma; Grasta owns 5%; PetroNEXUX owns 30%; and Remsa owns 5%.

Caimancito Refinery

On January 13, 2012, we, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, SAHF, signed a purchase option agreement with Cruz Norte, SA to purchase 33.33% of the Caimancito Refinery, located in the Jujuy Province, Argentina. In March, 2012, the purchase option agreement was finalized and signed and Cruz Norte transferred 1/3 of its stake in the refinery to SAHF. The purchase price of the refinery was US$150,000 for the 33.33% of the outstanding shares of Caimancito Refinery. A contract with NOA, a service company, was entered into for NOA to advise us of the expected costs to rehabilitate the plant.  Due to required rehabilitation work, currently this refinery is not being operated to produce gasoline or diesel fuel.

6

The Caimancito Refinery was built in the 1980's, in the Province of Jujuy, by Gas del Estado, a formerly State-owned natural gas company in order to produce propane, butane and natural gasoline. In 1997, management converted some of its equipment into equipment used for petroleum distillation and for solvent, gasoline, diesel oil and thinner production. During 2000, a biodiesel plant with the capacity of 10m3/day was built and operated until 2001 when the plant was revamped to 15m3/day. The Caimancito plant is the only refining plant in Jujuy.

Terms of Carryover Arrangements

We entered into a carryover arrangement for Jollin and Tonono on September 25, 2009.  The Tartagal and Morillo interest was a carry-over interest from inception, May 15, 2007.

The carrying party for Jollin, Tonono, Tartagal and Morillo concessions is Oxipetrol-Petroleros de Occidente SA (Maxipetrol). Jollin and Tonono went into a carry-over mode after a buy-sell agreement with Maxipetrol on September 29, 2009.

Under the terms of the carry over, 50% of the production profits will be applied to the investment payment. The balance of the production profits (50%) will be distributed proportionally according to the percentage of each JV member. These terms apply for the Jollin, Tonono, Tartagal & Morillo concessions.

Admission of SAHF to Joint Ventures Operating Oil Concessions

SAHF received the approval for the Jollin Block and Tonono Block on July 2, 2010, 14 months after filing for such. The approval for the Tartagal and Morillo Blocks application was filed in August 2010 and approved May 11, 2011.

Prior to formal admittance into the joint ventures, SAHF’s 10% carry-over interest in the Jollin and Tonono concessions and 9% carry-over interest in the Tartagal and Morillo Concessions were assigned to and held in Trust for SAHF by Maxipetrol for the sole use and benefit of SAHF, including any proceeds from the sale of hydrocarbons or property interests.  The Assignment Agreement did not affect the rights, privileges, obligations and liabilities of the parties to the agreement related to their respective interests in any way.  This is a common practice in Argentina due to the lengthy period required for obtaining government approvals.

The 2010 concessions for the Salta Province Exploration Rights Concession total approximately $1.1 million of which SAHF’s share is $220,000.  Prior to the drilling of the Guemes well, the managing partner began negotiating with the government of Argentina to have the concessions' penalties waived and it was agreed that the Government will not draw on the Performance Bond posted by Ketsal, in exchange for opening a well on Guemes and continued development activities in the province.  SAHF opened up well in Guemes known as "Dos Morros" and the overdue charges have been waived. When the transactions with the government and partners are finalized, SAHF will register to become an official member of the new remaining joint venture.

Development Schedule for Our Oil and Gas Investments

The focus of operations for the Company's immediate development is Valle de Lerma. SAHF has done the measurement and survey study and filed an environmental impact study, which was approved.  Upon completion of the study it was determined that the actual “La Troja” well site was within the boundaries of the City of Salta, where government restrictions do not allow oil to be produced from this site.  We are currently negotiating with the government to add an additional site to the concession area from among three sites adjacent to the concession area with similar wells. When the extension of the concession area is accomplished, we will commence work on the new site, following receipt of all government approvals.

In addition the operators of Tartagal and Morillo have stated that they expect to be delivering crude to the local refineries as soon as their wells are approved for commercial production and the battery and required lines and infrastructure are installed. The main costs associated with our oil and gas investments are related to oil and gas property acquisition, drilling costs, initial well revitalization, gas pipeline construction and ongoing operating expenses. The revitalization of wells allows short-term cash increases while holding the lease for additional future development.

Commitment to Technology  

In each of our core operating areas, we have accumulated detailed geologic and geophysical knowledge and have developed significant technical and operational expertise.  This data is analyzed with advanced geophysical and geological computer resources dedicated to the accurate and efficient characterization of the subsurface oil and gas reservoirs that comprise our asset base. This commitment to technology has increased the productivity and efficiency of our field operations and development activities.

Lithium Project

On March 1, 2010, we purchased control of 51% of approximately 143,000 hectares with 29 mines located in the Northwest part of Argentina, south of the border with Bolivia, with high lithium and borates brines concentration. This property is held under a concession for a period of 20 years that provides for the following rights: to explore, evaluate, develop, produce and arrange mineral resources on the property.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, SAHF has been appointed as Chief Operating Officer (COO) of the project. The project involves the exploration and eventual exploitation of 29 mines in one block of a salt plateau located in Jujuy Province, Argentina. None of the 29 mines is being actively mined.  We have performed sampling and geological analyses with a local geological company to determine value to the property.  The condition to retain the claims is payment of the annual fee renewal and the approval of the Operation Plan and Environmental Impact Report by government authorities before any major drilling.  We are actively seeking a partner or buyer to take over the development of this property.

Each of the black dots represents a mine location.

Cachi

In the fourth quarter of 2010, SAHF exercised a purchase option agreement with Minera Ansotana, SA to explore and develop columbite-tantalite (coltan) from a set of mines in Cachi, Salta. Some of the key mines in Cachi are El Quemado, Penas Blancas and Tres Tetas, which were used for mining in the 1950's by German immigrants. After reviewing various reports detailing the potential of these mines, the Company purchased 51% of the mine and immediately began sampling the property. In the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company received very promising results from the Tres Tetas mines from samples that were taken throughout 2011 by a team of local geologists and engineers. The samples were originally analyzed in labs at a local Salta University, and then exported to Chile and Australia for further analysis.

9

Because of the location and height, the window for the government’s construction of a road, further work is currently on hold until next summer, when the government is expected to complete the road.

SAHF is still exploring several options to arrange partnership interests with other firms to exploit the Cachi and lithium properties or to sell the concessions.

Development Activities

Development projects on the concessions in which we have investments include accessing additional productive formations in existing well bores, formation stimulation, infill drilling on closer well spacing, and retrofitting or reworking existing wells.

Reserve Reports for the Properties

The Company is working with some of its partners in certain joint ventures and with NSAI to develop reserve reports and prospective resources reports for Tartagal, Morillo and Valle de Lerma.

Customers

Petroleum and natural gas in the Northwest Basin of Argentina are traded freely and on a transaction by transaction basis. There are no long term contracts due to the supply deficit in this area. The buyers are the local refineries, and deliveries are made by pipelines or by truck in remote sites. Refineries pay for the transportation cost. At present, SAHF does not have a contract with any customer and, if current circumstances continue to prevail, when we commence oil production SAHF will entertain the daily spot offers to maximize profit.

Title to Properties

We believe we have satisfactory title in all of our producing properties; and we investigate title and title opinions from counsel only when we acquire producing properties or before commencement of drilling operations. All of our current properties have been acquired directly from the government, except in the case of the Caimancito refinery. As all of our current property titles are issued by the Argentine government (Department of Energy), we believe that we are in full compliance with the title requirements for each of our properties.

Competition

Our ability to acquire additional prospects and to find and develop reserves in the future will depend on our ability to evaluate and select suitable properties and to consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment.  Also, there is substantial competition for capital available for investment in the oil and gas industry.

10

Governmental Regulation

The key points of the statutory and regulatory regime in respect of oil and gas operations in Argentina are as follows:

The Company’s operations in Argentina are subject to various laws, taxes and regulations governing the oil and gas industry. Information concerning SAHF is registered in the Public Registry of Commerce, and the conduct and dealing of SAHF are governed by the commercial code and supplementary laws and regulations.  Taxes generally include income taxes, value added taxes, export taxes, and other production taxes such as provincial production taxes and turnover taxes. Labor laws and provincial environmental regulations are also in place.

According to the Argentinean Hydrocarbons Law, number 6747 and Decrees  3560/95 and 2219/96, an Oil Operator License is needed to work in exploration and Exploitation of Hydrocarbons in the country. The Company has a Federal Operator License issued by the Federal Secretary of Energy and a Salta Province Producer License issued by the Salta Secretary of Energy. The company's partner, Grasta Petroleo has the refinery license to operate the Caimancito Plant.

Oil Concessions

Our right to conduct exploration and production activities in Argentina is derived from participation in concessions and exploration permits granted by the Argentine federal government and provincial governments that control sub-surface minerals.  In general, provincial governments have had full jurisdiction over concession contracts since early 2007, when the Argentine federal government transferred to the provincial government’s full ownership and administration rights over all hydrocarbon deposits located within the respective territories of the provinces, including all exploration permits and exploitation concessions originally granted by the federal government.

A concession granted by the government gives the concession holders, or the joint venture partners, ownership of hydrocarbons at the moment they are produced through the wellhead. Under this arrangement, the concession holders have the right to freely sell produced hydrocarbons, and have authority over operations including exploration and development plans. The concessions have a term of 25 years which can be extended for 10 years with the consent of the government. Throughout the term of their concessions, the partners are subject to provincial production taxes, turnover taxes, and federal income taxes. These tax rates are fixed by law and are currently 12% to 18.5%, two percent, and 35 percent, respectively. Subsequent to the transfer of ownership and administrative rights over hydrocarbon deposits to the provinces, provincial governments have sometimes required higher provincial production tax rates in blocks awarded by the provinces or in concessions that have been granted the 10 year extension.

In Argentina, material mining regulations are promulgated by the Federal Congress and have been contained since 1884 as a part of the Mining Code. On the other hand, original domain of mining natural resources belongs to the provinces. Thus, provinces (i) appoint concession authorities and (ii) provide procedural mining regulations that individuals and legal entities must follow in order to be awarded mining rights and property. Exploration concessions granted are subject to specific terms, but resulting exploitation concessions––provided that certain requirements are met–– are perpetual.

11

Mining prospecting and exploration rights are easements which title can be granted to individuals or legal entities through administrative or judicial concessions ("exploration concessions"). Any mineral discovery made either by the concessionaire or third parties, provided they take place in the area and term of the concession, grants the concessionaire the right to turn such discovery into a mine.

The term of exploration concessions depends on the size of the granted concession area. The basic 500 hectares concession lasts for 150 days and each surface unit added to such basic concession increases the term in 50 additional days. Therefore, the largest possible concession will last for a 1,100 days term. In addition, there is an area limit of 200,000 hectares per area and a maximum of 20 areas that can be owned by a single entity.

Provincial governments in Argentina recently have established production floors and conditions for producing concessions, designed to force companies to increase production or else face a revocation in their concessions. We expect that our concession terms in the future will be affected by these changes in producing concession terms.

SAHF received on April 29, 2011 its producing license for oil and gas. Our partners in the joint ventures that SAHF is involved in have all the other required licenses and permits to commercially produce oil and gas.

In the lithium (North Guayatayoc) and Coltan (Cachi) properties, licenses have not yet been pursued because SAHF is still exploring several options to arrange partnership interests with other firms to exploit the properties or to sell the concessions. Once management has made a decision, the appropriate licenses will be acquired by either SAHF or its partners in the respective joint ventures.

The main effects of government regulations on the Company are that it will take a longer amount of time for properties to start producing commercially and that it will cost more money. The longer time frame from acquisition of the property to their commercial production stage can be attributed to the higher amount of time and focus that has to be put on paperwork and legal work. Because all of our contracts and corporate documents are written in English in the U.S, they need to be translated and notarized with an apostille to be valid in Argentina, which can cause delays in the applications for permits and licenses in Argentina. The higher expected cost can be attributed to the legal fees incurred to comply with the government regulations, along with the royalties, canons, and landowner fees that are particular to each concession.

Exchange Controls

As a result of the devaluation of the Argentine peso at the beginning of 2002, several foreign exchange regulations were issued to limit the transfer of money abroad.  On October 13, 2011, the Argentine government launched a series of regulations in order to control the sale of foreign currency. The measures aim to slow the rise in value of the North American dollar, of which the Argentine Central Bank has had to reduce its reserves in order to avoid the continuing devaluation of the Argentine peso against the dollar.

12

There are no restrictions for the payment abroad of interest, dividends or profits, royalties and other commercial payments duly supported by the corresponding documentation. There are presently no restrictions on foreign investment in the capital of local corporations. However, pursuant to a 2005 rule issued by the central bank, any transfer of funds into Argentina as a result of a financial debt is subject to a compulsory one-year temporary and non-interest bearing deposit equivalent to 30% of the funds transferred into Argentina. Investments in mining projects or to increase the capital requirement of a company's branch(es) in Argentina are exempt from this deposit rule.

Research and Development

We do not anticipate performing any significant product research and development under our plan of operation.

Employees

Currently, we have three management employees: Malcolm W. Sherman, President and Chief Executive Officer, and two SAHF employees, a field operations manager and a general manager. In our operations in Argentina, we utilize temporary employees and consultants under contract. While in operations, the number of independent contractors hired temporarily by the Company for specific projects exceeds 70.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Our oil and gas investments made by our subsidiary SAHF may not be profitable.

The success of our investments in Argentina will depend to a great extent on the operations, financial condition and management of the oil and gas concession and exploration rights in which we have investments. Their success may depend upon management of the operations in which the investments were made and numerous other factors beyond our control.

13

Drilling for and producing oil and natural gas are high risk activities with many uncertainties.

Our future success will depend on the success of our development, exploitation, production and exploration activities.  Our oil and natural gas exploration and production activities are subject to numerous risks beyond our control, including the risk that drilling will not result in commercially viable oil or natural gas production.  Our decisions to purchase, explore, develop or otherwise exploit prospects or properties will depend in part on the evaluation of data obtained through geophysical and geological analyses, production data and engineering studies, the results of which are often inconclusive or subject to varying interpretations.  Our cost of drilling, completing and operating wells is often uncertain before drilling commences.  Overruns in budgeted expenditures are common risks that can make a particular project uneconomical.  Further, many factors may curtail, delay or cancel drilling, including the following:

● delays imposed by or resulting from compliance with regulatory requirements;

● pressure or irregularities in geological formations;

● shortages of or delays in obtaining qualified personnel or equipment, including drilling rigs and CO2;

● equipment failures or accidents; and

● adverse weather conditions, such as freezing temperatures, hurricanes and storms.

The presence of one or a combination of these factors at our properties could adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Prospects that we decide to drill may not yield oil or gas in commercially viable quantities.

A prospect is a property on which we have identified what our geoscientists believe, based on available seismic and geological information, to be indications of oil or gas.  Our prospects are in various stages of evaluation, ranging from a prospect which is ready to drill to a prospect that will require substantial additional seismic data processing and interpretation.  There is no way to predict in advance of drilling and testing whether any particular prospect will yield oil or gas in sufficient quantities to recover drilling or completion costs or to be economically viable.  The use of seismic data and other technologies and the study of producing fields in the same area will not enable us to know conclusively prior to drilling whether oil or gas will be present or, if present, whether oil or gas will be present in commercial quantities.  In addition, because of the wide variance that results from different equipment used to test the wells, initial flowrates may not be indicative of sufficient oil or gas quantities in a particular field.  The analogies we draw from available data from other wells, from more fully explored prospects, or from producing fields may not be applicable to our drilling prospects.  We may terminate our drilling program for a prospect if results do not merit further investment.

14

We are subject to complex laws that can affect the cost, manner or feasibility of doing business.

Exploration, development, production and sale of oil and natural gas are subject to extensive federal and state regulation in Argentina.  We may be required to make large expenditures to comply with governmental regulations.  Matters subject to regulation include:  

● the exploitation of our oil and gas concessions as governed by the terms of the concession agreements;

● royalties, canons and landlord fees;

● production permits;

● discharge permits for drilling operations;

● drilling bonds;

● reports concerning operations;

● the spacing of wells;

● unitization and pooling of properties; and

● taxation.

Under these laws, we could be liable for personal injuries, property damage and other damages.  Failure to comply with these laws also may result in the suspension or termination of our operations and subject us to administrative, civil and criminal penalties.  Moreover, these laws could change in ways that could substantially increase our costs.  Any such liabilities, penalties, suspensions, terminations or regulatory changes could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our operations may incur substantial liabilities to comply with environmental laws and regulations.

Our oil and gas operations are subject to stringent federal and state laws and regulations relating to the release or disposal of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to environmental protection.  These laws and regulations require an environmental impact study before drilling commences; and impose substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from our operations.  Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in the assessment of penalties or the incurrence of investigatory or remedial obligations.  

Market conditions or operational impediments may hinder our access to oil and gas markets or delay our production.

In connection with our continued development of oil and gas properties, we may be disproportionately exposed to the impact of delays or interruptions of production from wells in these properties, caused by transportation capacity constraints, curtailment of production or the interruption of transporting oil and gas volumes produced.  In addition, market conditions or a lack of satisfactory oil and gas transportation arrangements may hinder our access to oil and gas markets or delay our production.  The availability of a ready market for our oil and natural gas production depends on a number of factors, including the demand for and supply of oil and natural gas and the proximity of reserves to pipelines and terminal facilities. 

15

Crude oil and natural gas prices are volatile and a substantial reduction in these prices could adversely affect our results and the price of our common stock.

Our revenues, operating results and future rate of growth depend highly upon the prices we receive from crude oil and natural gas produced by the concession in which we have investments. Historically, the markets for crude oil and natural gas have been volatile and are likely to continue to be volatile in the future. The markets and prices for crude oil and natural gas depend on factors beyond our control. These factors include demand for crude oil and natural gas, which fluctuates with changes in market and economic conditions, and other factors, including:

● worldwide and domestic supplies of crude oil and natural gas;

● actions taken by foreign oil and gas producing nations;

● political conditions and events (including instability or armed conflict)  in crude oil or natural gas producing regions;

● the level of global crude oil and natural gas inventories;

● the price and level of foreign imports;

● the price and availability of alternative fuels;

● the availability of pipeline capacity and infrastructure;

● the availability of crude oil transportation and refining capacity;

● weather conditions;

● domestic and foreign governmental regulations and taxes; and

● the overall economic environment.

Significant declines in crude oil and natural gas prices for an extended period may have the following effects on our business:

● limiting our financial condition, liquidity, and ability to  finance planned capital expenditures and results of operations;

● reducing the amount of crude oil and natural gas that can be  produced economically;

● causing us to delay or postpone some of our capital projects;

● reducing our revenues, operating income and cash flows;

● reducing the carrying value of our investments in crude oil and  natural gas properties; or

● limiting our access to sources of capital, such as equity and long-term debt.

Our business involves many operating risks that may result in substantial losses for which insurance may be unavailable or inadequate.

Our oil and gas investments are subject to hazards and risks inherent in operating and restoring oil and gas wells, such as fires, natural disasters, explosions, casing collapses, surface cratering, pipeline ruptures or cement failures, and environmental hazards such as natural gas leaks, oil spills and discharges of toxic gases. Any of these risks can cause substantial losses resulting from injury or loss of life, damage to or destruction of property, natural resources and equipment, pollution and other environmental damages, regulatory investigations and penalties, suspension of our operations and repair and remediation costs. In addition, our liability for environmental hazards may include conditions created by the previous owners of properties in which we have investments or purchase or lease.

16

We do not believe that insurance coverage for all environmental damages that could occur is available at a reasonable cost. Losses could occur for uninsurable or uninsured risks. The occurrence of an event that is not fully covered by insurance could harm our financial condition and results of operations.

Competition in our industry is intense and many of our competitors have greater financial and technological resources.

We have investments in the competitive area of oil and gas exploration and production. Many competitors are large, well-established companies that have larger operating staffs and significantly greater capital resources.

Competition for experienced personnel may negatively impact our operations.

Our future profitability will depend on our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel. The loss of any key executives or other key personnel could have a material adverse effect on investments results and revenues. In particular, the loss of the services of our President, Dr. Daniel Peralta, could adversely affect our South American oil and gas investment results.

International operations expose us to political, economic and currency risks.

With regard to our investments in oil and gas concessions located outside of the United States, we are subject to the risks of doing business abroad, including,

● Currency fluctuations;

● Changes in tariffs and taxes; and

● Political and economic instability.

Changes in currency exchange rates may affect the relative costs of operations in Argentina, and may affect the cost of certain items required in oil and gas processing, thus possibly adversely affecting our profitability.

There are inherent risks for the foreseeable future of conducting business internationally. Language barriers, foreign laws and tariff and taxation issues all have a potential negative effect on our ability to transact business. Changes in tariffs or taxes applicable to our investments in foreign operations may adversely affect our profitability. Political instability may increase the difficulties and costs of doing business. We may be subject to the jurisdiction of the government and/or private litigants in foreign countries where we transact business, and may be forced to expend funds to contest legal matters in those countries in disputes with those governments or with customers or suppliers.

We are subject to changing governmental regulations concerning our oil and gas properties and with respect to investments.

Provincial governments in Argentina have established production floors and conditions for producing concessions that are required to be met by the companies holding the concessions. Our operations in Argentina may in the future be adversely impacted by these measures currently being taken by provincial governments.

Although, there are no restrictions for the payment abroad of interest, dividends or profits, royalties and other commercial payments duly supported by the corresponding documentation, exchange control regulations could be implemented to restrict transfers of funds from SAHF to the Company, which would limit our ability to pay dividends.

17

Historically we have not paid dividends.

We have never paid dividends on our common stock, and management does not anticipate payment of dividends until such time as our Board of Directors determines that our profitability warrants payment of dividends.

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

Not applicable.

Item 2. Properties.

As of December 31, 2012, our principal assets included Partial Rights Ownership in five oil and gas properties.

Block	Province	Status	Delta %	Partner(s)
Jollin	Salta	Testing	10% CO	JHP (China), Maxipetrol
Tonono	Salta	testing	10% CO	JHP (China), Maxipetrol
Tartagal	Salta	Seismic	9% CO	New Times Energy (HK), Maxipetrol
Morillo	Salta	Seismic	9% CO	New Times Energy (HK), Maxipetrol
Guemes	Salta	Drill Complete	20%	Ketsal
Valle de Lerma	Salta	Well Workover	60%	Remsa, PetroNexus, Grasta

*CO means a carryover interest in the project.

** Of these five properties, SAHF and its joint venture partner have made initial investments in Guemes.

*** In the Jollin, Tonono, Tartagal, Morillo and Coltan concession the carry over mode relieved SAHF from the payment of canon, or landlord, fees of any kind. In the exploratory areas, Guemes proportional exploratory canons were paid as explained in the financials. Surface canon were not paid due to the lack of surface operations in those blocks, with the exception of Guemes where an old YPF road, built by the former National Company of Argentina and now owned by Repsol of Spain) was used in 2010 to access the drilling site.

Executive Offices

Effective March 1, 2013, we entered into a one-year lease for our new executive offices, at a net monthly rental of $3,100. The lease contains a renewal option for one year. We anticipate that this office space will accommodate our operations for the next several years.

GENERAL

Delta Mutual, Inc. (the “Company”)was incorporated in Delaware on November 17, 1999. In 2003, we established business operations focused on providing environmental and construction technologies and services.  Our operations in the Far East (Indonesia) and our construction operations in Puerto Rico were discontinued in 2008.

Effective March 4, 2008, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding membership interests in the parent of South American Hedge Fund LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, sometimes herein referred to as “SAHF”).  For accounting purposes, the transaction was treated as a recapitalization of the Company, as of March 4, 2008, with the parent of SAHF as the acquirer. SAHF maintains a branch office in Argentina, where it is engaged in oil and gas exploration and development activities.

20

Overview

We are an independent oil and gas company, with the SIC Code classification 1311 (oil and gas production)for SEC filing purposes, engaged in oil and gas acquisition, exploitation, production and exploration activities primarily in Argentina. In addition, we have ownership interests in certain mineral rights that are located in Argentina.  In August 2007, SAHF signed agreements to purchase partial ownership interests in four oil and gas concessions in Northern Argentina. The joint venture owning these concessions then started the process to obtain the necessary government and environmental operating permits for the commercial exploitation of these concessions.  These oil and gas investments were contributed to the Company as part of the reverse merger transaction in March 2008.

Our goal is to generate meaningful growth in shareholder value through the discovery and development of proved oil and gas reserves or other minerals, and we have focused on concessions where there are shut-in, plugged or abandoned wells that have, in our assessment, a high probability of additional recovery of reserves through the revitalization of the wells using standard oil and gas industry practices to bring back wells into production or to enhance production. In addition, our growth plan is centered upon the pursuit of energy related development projects that we believe will generate attractive rates of return while maintaining a balanced portfolio of lower risk, long-lived oil and gas properties that provide stable cash flows.

The Company's business is subject to the risks of its oil and gas investments in South America. The likelihood of success of the Company must be considered in light of the expenses, difficulties, delays and unanticipated challenges encountered in connection with the operations of oil and gas concessions in Argentina.

Recent Developments

Dr. Daniel R. Peralta, our President and Chief Executive Officer, director, and major stockholder, and his wife died in their home November 7, 2012. Our board appointed Malcolm Sherman, who was our Executive Vice President, as President and Chief Executive Officer and elected Santiago Peralta, the son of Dr. Peralta, as a member of our Board of Directors.

Principle Petroleum Ltd. Agreement

Effective March 30, 2012, we entered into the Cooperation Agreement with Principle Petroleum Ltd. (“PPL”). Under the Cooperation Agreement, PPL agreed to pay us $7,000,000 for certain exploration and exploitation rights to oil and gas deposits and certain bidding rights held by Delta on the following areas: Valle de Lerma in the province of Salta; San Salvador de Jujuy; Libertador General San Martin in the province of Jujuy; and Selva Maria in the province of Formosa.  Pursuant to a separate Agreement dated March 31, 2012, we agreed with PPL to assign and transfer 50% of SAHF's ownership of the Tartagal and Morillo (i.e., a 9% interest in the concession) to PPL for a purchase price of $500,000, which was paid in 2012. PPL has also agreed in an Undertaking to provide funds to the operating entities of Valle de Lerma, Selva Maria, San Salvador and Libertador, in the aggregate amount of up to $10,000,000 (Selva Maria is pending for approval from the government, which is standard procedure in Argentina). The San Salvador and Libertador concessions were, upon the receipt by the government of a higher bid, awarded to another company.

21

As part of PPL’s obligations under the Cooperation Agreement, PPL made partial payments of $2,000,000 in our 2012 first fiscal quarter, $999,979 in the second quarter and $499,979 in the third quarter towards the full amount of $7,000,000 provided under the Cooperation Agreement.  Both parties are working to execute the full amount of PPL’s payment obligations as agreed. A further payment of $500,000 was made by PPL in January 2013.

Development of Our Oil and Gas Properties

Specifically, we have focused, and plan to continue to focus, on the following investments in South America.

Valle de Lerma

On August 10, 2011, the Company’s tender offer, made through our wholly-owned subsidiary, SAHF, for the ownership right to explore, and eventually, produce oil and natural gas in the block known as “Valle de Lerma” was declared the winning bid by the Salta provincial government. SAHF made the offer in a joint venture agreement with Grasta SA, a local mid-size gasoline refinery located in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Other partners in the block include PetroNEXUS and REMSA. On October 25, 2011 SAHF was awarded an Exploration and Exploitation Oil & Gas Block License by the Government of Salta, Argentina.

The Valle de Lerma block is located in the province of Salta in the northwestern region of Argentina and has an area of 5259 km2. SAHF has done the measurement and survey study and filed an environmental impact study, which was approved.  Upon completion of the study it was determined that the actual well site was within the boundaries of the City of Salta, where government restrictions do not allow oil to be produced from this site.  We are currently negotiating with the government to add an additional site to the concession area from among three sites adjacent to the concession area with similar wells. When the extension of the concession area is accomplished, we will commence work on the new site, following receipt of all government approvals.  SAHF holds a majority of the license interest and is the responsible operator. The license allows SAHF 20 years to explore and produce hydrocarbons with a renewal option of ten more years. The Company will commence the Valle de Lerma well work over with a local rig company. The exploration terms are four years for the first period, three years for the second and two years for the last period.

SAHF currently owns 60% of the rights to explore Valle de Lerma; GRASTA owns 5%; PetroNEXUS owns 30%; and REMSA owns 5%.  

The total investment commitment originally approved is of 401 work units within a three year term.  Each work unit has a value of $5,000 totaling a $2,005,000 of committed investment for the first quarter.  In the second quarter of 2011, the Company executed 175 work units and the conclusions were submitted to the proper regulatory government agency, which approved the work performed with the Resolution 021/2012 dated May 11, 2012.  Our insurance policy for the remnant amount of $1,155,000 was issued in the second quarter of 2012.

22

Tartagal and Morillo

As of December 31, 2012, the Company, through SAHF, retained 9% of the total concession in the carryover mode ("no cost obligations to SAHF") in the Tartagal and Morillo oil and gas concessions located in Northern Argentina. In March 2009, a Hong Kong public company purchased 60% of the ownership in the Tartagal and Morillo oil and gas concessions, and has invested approximately $60 million to date on geological studies, 2D and 3D seismic surveys on both blocks and two work-over drills and an exploratory well drill in Tartagal. The exploration period of the licenses for the Tartagal and Morillo blocks has been extended until February 2014. Production from the two Campo Alcoba test wells commenced in 2011 and has continued into the 2012 second quarter. A work over of one the two previously reopened wells is planned, and currently an analytic test to drill one more exploratory well is under way. On May 11, 2011, SAHF received the Salta Government’s approval for its 18% ownership share for the Tartagal and Morillo concessions. Effective March 30, 2012, we agreed to sell 50% of our interest in these concessions to PPL.

Jollin and Tonono Oil and Gas Concessions

As of December 31, 2012, the Company, through SAHF, has a 10% interest concession in the carryover mode ("no cost obligations to SAHF") in the Jollin and Tonono oil and gas concessions located in Northern Argentina.

SAHF received its foreign registration in Argentina and was admitted as a member of the joint venture on July 2, 2010. Accordingly, the Company has reclassified its concession costs in the amount of $688,475 associated with this property to proved oil and gas properties as of December 31, 2010 based upon the reserve report received from the third party working interest owner of the joint venture. The Company will begin receiving revenue from the Jollin and Tonono blocks when the first well is approved for commercial production. The joint venture is currently developing a future plan for continuing the exploration of the concessions.

Salta Province Exploration Rights

During 2008, SAHF purchased 40% of the oil and gas exploration rights to five geographically defined areas in the Salta Province of Northern Argentina from Ketsal, SA (“Ketsal”) for $697,000 cash. In 2009, SAHF assigned 50% of its rights to a third party. As of December 31, 2012, SAHF owns 20% of the rights to this oil and gas concession. SAHF is responsible for managing the drilling activities in the Salta Province and bears its pro-rata share of the costs. Exploratory drilling activities commenced in April 2010 on the Guemes Block and the first well was spud in September 2010. In July 2010, SAHF found positive traces of the presence of natural gas and hydrocarbons of low-density quality through its analysis of core samples. Well logging while drilling also confirmed the potential existence of formations with sufficient hydrocarbons to make the well economically productive.

The UTE for this concession is in litigation with the drilling company that drilled the test well and has sued for an alleged $3,000,000 of additional expenses over and above the contract amount under the fixed price drilling contract, where the contract amount was set at $1,000,000, and overage amounts were to be set prior to execution.  The operator of the concession, Ketsal, is in the process of settlement negotiations. SAHF has no obligation or liability for any amounts paid in settlement of, or as a result of an adverse judgment in, this litigation. However, the resolution of this lawsuit may affect the schedule for the future development of this property.

23

Production testing to verify the commercial sustainability of the well is expected to commence in the third quarter of 2013, subject to favorable settlement of the litigation.

Caimancito Refinery

We, through our wholly-owned subsidiary, SAHF, have purchased 33.33% of the Caimancito Refinery, located in the Jujuy Province, Argentina, pursuant to a March, 2012 purchase option agreement. The purchase price for the 33.33% of the outstanding shares of Caimancito Refinery was $150,000, which has been paid in full.  A contract with NOA, a service company, was entered into for NOA to advise us of the expected costs to rehabilitate the plant.  Due to required rehabilitation work, currently this refinery is not being operated to produce gasoline or diesel fuel.

Lithium Production Properties

On March 1, 2010, we signed a purchase option agreement with Minera Jujuy from the Jujuy Province, Argentina related to the acquisition of approximate 143,000 hectares with 29 mines located in the Northwest part of Argentina, south of the border with Bolivia, with high lithium and borates brines concentration. Currently, we are performing sampling and geological conclusions with a local geological company in order to determine value to the property. SAHF purchased control of 51% of the Guayatayoc project via a partnership agreement with Oscar Chedrese and Servicios Mineros SA. The project holds the concession for a period of 20 years.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2011

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we had net earnings of $5,043,149 compared to a net loss of $786,826 for the year ended December 31, 2011. The gain for the year ended December 31, 2012 over the prior year is primarily due to the gain on the sale of certain bidding rights to PPL.

During the year ended December 31, 2012 our loss from operations was approximately $1,361,718 compared to a net loss from operations of approximately $787,566 in 2011, due to a higher level of general and administrative expenses in 2012.

LIQUIDITY

At December 31, 2012, we had a working capital surplus of approximately $4.2 million, compared with a working capital deficit of approximately $1.3 million at December 31, 2011.  The significant improvement is due to the sale of certain bidding rights and oil and gas properties to PPL as of March 30, 2012.

At December 31, 2012, we had total assets of approximately $8.3 million compared to total assets of approximately $2.6 million at December 31, 2011. Net cash used in operating activities in the year ended December 31, 2012 was approximately $1.4 million, as compared with approximately $0.7 million in 2011; and net cash generated from investing activities was approximately $3 million 2012, as compared with cash used of approximately $0.4 in 2011. Cash used in operations and investing activities in 2012 was offset by net cash provided from investing and financing activities of approximately $3 million.  Net cash used by financing activities was $50,000 in the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to approximately $1.0 million in 2011.

24

Estimated 2012 Capital Requirements

In the case of the Jollin and Tonono and Tartagal and Morillo oil and gas properties, we have carried interests; therefore, no further capital expenditures are required on our part.  For the exploration rights in Salta Province, we have completed the drilling and development of one well in Guemes that is expected to begin production testing in 2013.  We have sufficient funds for our portion (20%) of the costs of installation of the battery storage facility to complete the Guemes production and storage facilities, although further development efforts on this concession are dependent on successful settlement of litigation with regards to amounts owed under the drilling contract. In the event our revenue expectations for 2012 are not met, we are not required to make any additional capital investment to protect our assets.

We estimate that our capital requirements in 2013 to develop the Valle de Lerma (where we have applied for extension of the concession to permit oil production from an existing site) and Selva Maria properties (the award of the Selva Maria concession is pending approval from the government) will approximate $1,350,000 for Selva Maria and $800,000 for Valle de Lerma. The funds for which investments would be provided by in part by PPL (and by the other partners in the respective UTE’s) pursuant to PPL’s commitment to provide up to $10,000,000 in developmental funds for these properties.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to oil and gas properties, intangible assets, income taxes and contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in these financial statements. Certain amounts for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Management believes that it is reasonably possible that the following material estimates affecting the financial statements could happen in the coming year:

● Proved oil and gas reserves;

● Expected future cash flow from proved oil and gas properties;

● Future exploration and development costs; and

● Future dismantlement and restoration costs.

NEW FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

For a summary of new financial accounting standards applicable to the Company, please refer to the accompanying notes to the financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Securities and Exchange Commission recently issued “Financial Reporting Release No. 60 Cautionary Advice About Critical Accounting Policies” (“FRR 60”), suggesting companies provide additional disclosures, discussion and commentary on their accounting policies considered most critical to its business and financial reporting requirements. FRR 60 considers an accounting policy to be critical if it is important to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, and requires significant judgment and estimates on the part of management in the application of the policy.

The Company assesses potential impairment of its long-lived assets, which include its property and equipment, investments, and its identifiable intangibles such as deferred charges under the guidance of SFAS 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” The Company must continually determine if a permanent impairment of its long-lived assets has occurred and write down the assets to their fair values and charge current operations for the measured impairment.

Investments in non-consolidated affiliates – These investments consist of the Company’s ownership interests in oil and gas development and exploration rights in Argentina, net of impairment losses if any.

We evaluate these investments for impairment when indicators of potential impairment are present. Indicators of impairment include, but are not limited to, levels of oil and gas reserves, availability of pipeline (or other transportation) capacity and infrastructure and management of the operations in which the investments were made.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Interest Rate Risk - Interest rate risk refers to fluctuations in the value of a security resulting from changes in the general level of interest rates. Investments that are classified as cash and cash equivalents have original maturities of three months or less. Our interest income is sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates.

We do not have significant short-term investments, and due to their short-term nature, we believe that there is not a material risk exposure.

Credit Risk - Our accounts receivable are subject, in the normal course of business, to collection risks. We regularly assess these risks and have established policies and business practices to protect against the adverse effects of collection risks. As a result we do not anticipate any material losses in this area.

26

Commodity Price Risk – We are exposed to market risks related to price volatility of crude oil and natural gas. The prices of crude oil and natural gas affect our revenues, since sales of crude oil and natural gas from our South American investments comprise nearly all of the components of our revenue.  A decline in crude oil and natural gas prices will likely reduce our revenues, unless there are offsetting production increases. We do not use derivative commodity instruments for trading purposes.

The prices of the commodities that the Company produces are unsettled at this time.  At times the prices seem to be drift down and then either increase or stabilize for a few days.  Current price movement seems to be slightly up but with the prices of the traditionally marketed products (gasoline, diesel, and natural gas as feed stocks for various industries, power generation, and heating) are not showing material increases.  Although prices are difficult to predict in the current environment, the Company maintains the expectation that demand for crude oil and natural gas will continue to increase for the foreseeable future due to the underling factors that oil and natural gas based commodities are both sources of raw energy and are fuels that are easily portable.

Foreign Currency Risk - Our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Because our revenue is reported in U.S. dollars, fluctuating exchange rates of the local currency, when converted into U.S. dollars, may have an adverse impact on our revenue and income. We have not hedged foreign currency exposures related to transactions denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars. We do not engage in financial transactions for trading or speculative purposes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of and for the Years Ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION

Delta Mutual, Inc. (“Delta” or “the Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on November 17, 1999.  The primary focus of the Company’s business is its South America Hedge Fund LLC (“SAHF”) subsidiary, which has investments in oil and gas concessions in Argentina and focuses on the energy sector, including the development and supply of energy and alternative energy sources in Latin America and North America.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The Company's financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries where its ownership is more than 50 percent of the common stock.  All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including, but not limited to, those related to such items as impairments of oil and gas properties, income tax exposures, accruals, depreciable/useful lives, allowance for doubtful accounts, and valuation allowances.  The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

EVALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Oil and gas and mineral properties represent an important component of the Company’s total assets.  Management reviews long-lived assets for potential impairment whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Impairment exists when the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.  The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset.  If, impairment exists, the resulting write-down would be the difference between fair market value of the long-lived asset and the related net book value.

INVESTMENTS

Investments in non-consolidated affiliates consist of the Company’s ownership interests in oil and gas development and exploration rights in Argentina, net of impairment losses if any.  These investments were reclassified to unproved oil and gas properties after the Company was officially admitted into the joint ventures for each of the properties.

The Company evaluates these investments for impairment when indicators of potential impairment are present. Indicators of impairment include, but are not limited to, levels of oil and gas reserves, availability of pipeline (or other transportation) capacity and infrastructure and management of the operations in which the investments were made. The Company evaluates its equity method investments for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate, in management’s judgment, that the carrying value of such investments may have experienced an other-than-temporary decline in value. When evidence of loss in value has occurred, the Company compares fair value of the investment to its carrying value to determine whether impairment has occurred. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value and management considers the decline to be other than temporary, the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value is recognized as impairment in the consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of and for the Years Ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

The Company accounts for our oil and natural gas producing activities using the full cost method of accounting as prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Under this method, subject to a limitation based on estimated value, all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration, and development of proved oil and natural gas properties, including internal costs directly associated with acquisition, exploration, and development activities, the costs of abandoned properties, dry holes, geophysical costs, and annual lease rentals are capitalized within a cost center. Costs of production and general and administrative corporate costs unrelated to acquisition, exploration, and development activities are expensed as incurred.

Costs associated with unevaluated properties are capitalized as oil and natural gas properties but are excluded from the amortization base during the evaluation period. When we determine whether the property has proved recoverable reserves or not, or if there is an impairment, the costs are transferred into the amortization base and thereby become subject to amortization.

The Company assesses all items classified as unevaluated property on at least an annual basis for inclusion in the amortization base. The Company assesses properties on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant. The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: intent to drill; remaining lease term; geological and geophysical evaluations; drilling results and activity; the assignment of proved reserves; and the economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned. During any period in which these factors indicate that there would be impairment, or if proved reserves are assigned to a property, the cumulative costs incurred to date for such property are transferred to the amortizable base and are then subject to amortization.

Capitalized costs included in the amortization base are depleted using the unit of production method based on proved reserves. Depletion is calculated using the capitalized costs included in the amortization base, including estimated asset retirement costs, plus the estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing proved reserves, net of estimated salvage values.

Beginning December 31, 2009, full cost companies use the un-weighted arithmetic average first day of the month price for oil and natural gas for the 12-month period preceding the calculation date. Prior to December 31, 2009, companies used the price in effect at the end of each accounting period and had the option, under certain circumstances, to elect to use subsequent commodity prices if they increased after the end of the accounting quarter.

Sales or other dispositions of oil and natural gas properties are accounted for as adjustments to capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recorded unless the ratio of cost to proved reserves would significantly change.

IMPAIRMENT

The net book value of all capitalized oil and natural gas properties within a cost center, less related deferred income taxes, is subject to a full cost ceiling limitation which is calculated quarterly. Under the ceiling limitation, costs may not exceed an aggregate of the present value of future net revenues attributable to proved oil and natural gas reserves discounted at 10 percent using current prices, plus the lower of cost or market value of unproved properties included in the amortization base, plus the cost of unevaluated properties, less any associated tax effects. Any excess of the net book value, less related deferred tax benefits, over the ceiling is written off as expense. Impairment expense recorded in one period may not be reversed in a subsequent period even though higher oil and gas prices may have increased the ceiling applicable to the subsequent period.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of and for the Years Ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement cost, and corresponding liability as part of the cost of the related long-lived asset and the cost is subsequently allocated to expense using a systematic and rational method. The Company records an asset retirement obligation to reflect our legal obligations related to future plugging and abandonment of our oil and natural gas wells and gas gathering systems. The Company estimates the expected cash flow associated with the obligation and discount the amount using a credit-adjusted, risk-free interest rate. At least annually, the Company reassesses the obligation to determine whether a change in the estimated obligation is necessary. The Company evaluates whether there are indicators that suggest the estimated cash flows underlying the obligation have materially changed. Should those indicators suggest the estimated obligation may have materially changed on an interim basis (quarterly), the Company will update our assessment accordingly. Additional retirement obligations increase the liability associated with new oil and natural gas wells and gas gathering systems as these obligations are incurred.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided for by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The Company purchased oil field equipment during the fourth quarter of 2011.   The Company did not provide any depreciation on this equipment for the years ending December 31, 2012 and 2011, as the equipment was not yet in service.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. We follow the “sales method” of accounting for oil and natural gas revenue, so we recognize revenue on all natural gas or crude oil sold to purchasers, regardless of whether the sales are proportionate to our ownership in the property. Actual sales of gas are based on sales, net of the associated volume charges for processing fees and for costs associated with delivery, transportation, marketing, and royalties in accordance with industry standards. Operating costs and taxes are recognized in the same period in which revenue is earned.  Severance and ad valorem taxes are reflected as a component of lease operating expense.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the liability method. Under the liability method, deferred assets and liabilities are recognized based upon anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. The Company establishes a valuation allowance to the extent that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be utilized against future taxable income.

UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS

The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions pursuant to ASC Topic 740-10-25 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” which allows companies to recognize a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Those tax positions failing to qualify for initial recognition are recognized in the first interim period in which they meet the more likely than not standard, or are resolved through negotiation or litigation with the taxing authority, or upon expiration of the statute of limitations. De-recognition of a tax position that was previously recognized occurs when an entity subsequently determines that a tax position no longer meets the more likely than not threshold of being sustained.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company has approximately $100,000 and $0, respectively, of liabilities for uncertain tax positions.  For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company provided $100,000 for uncertain tax positions related to its investments in Argentina.  Interpretation of taxation rules relating to investments in Argentina concessions may give rise to uncertain positions.  In connection with the uncertain tax position, there was no interest or penalties recorded.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of and for the Years Ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

The Company is subject to ongoing tax exposures, examinations and assessments in various jurisdictions. Accordingly, the Company may incur additional tax expense based upon the outcomes of such matters. In addition, when applicable, the Company will adjust tax expense to reflect the Company’s ongoing assessments of such matters, which require judgment and can materially increase or decrease its effective rate as well as impact operating results.

The number of years with open tax audits varies depending on the tax jurisdiction. The Company’s major taxing jurisdictions include the United States (including applicable states).

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common share and potential common share outstanding during the period.  Potential common shares consist of outstanding common stock purchase warrants.  For the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were 8,211,517 and 7,900,649, respectively of potentially dilutive common shares outstanding. For the year ended December 31, 2011, their effect would be anti-dilutive. (see Note 12)

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

In 2012 and 2011, the functional currency for the Company’s primary foreign operations is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at balance sheet date rates of exchange and income, expense and cash flow items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The functional currency in South America is the Argentine Peso. Translation adjustments are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.

OTHER CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") recently issued “Financial Reporting Release No. 60 Cautionary Advice About Critical Accounting Policies” (“FRR 60”), suggesting companies provide additional disclosures, discussion and commentary on their accounting policies considered most critical to its business and financial reporting requirements. FRR 60 considers an accounting policy to be critical if it is important to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, and requires significant judgment and estimates on the part of management in the application of the policy. For a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies, including the critical accounting policies, please refer to the accompanying notes to the financial statements.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to non-employees under ASC 718, "Compensation-Stock Compensation" ("ASC 718").  The compensation cost of the awards is based on the grant date fair-value of these awards and recognized over the requisite service period, which is typically the vesting period.  For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued 28,800 and 10,267 shares, respectively, and recorded compensation expense in the amount of $7,260 and $2,080, respectively. The Company uses the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model to determine the fair-value of stock options issued for compensation.

The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards based upon ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.”  ASC 505-50 requires the costs of goods and services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments to be recognized using the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity award, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of the equity award is determined on the measurement date, which is the earlier of the date that a performance commitment is reached or the date that performance is complete.  Generally, our awards do not entail performance commitments.  When an award vests over time such that performance occurs over multiple reporting periods, we estimate the fair value of the award as of the end of each reporting period and recognize an appropriate portion of the cost based on the fair value on that date.  When the award vests, we adjust the cost previously recognized so that the cost ultimately recognized is equivalent to the fair value on the date the performance is complete.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL MEASUREMENTS

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. FASB ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

The Company utilizes the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and discloses for all financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis during the reporting period.

The fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures", establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.  These tiers are defined as follows:  

Level 1 - Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets.

Level 2 - Inputs other then quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

As of December 31, 2012, there were no financial assets or liabilities that required disclosure.

NEW FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-02 – Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment (“ASU No. 2012-02”)

ASU No. 2012-02 amends ASU No. 2011-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, and permits an entity first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test in accordance with Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2012-02 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02 – Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“ASU No. 2013-02”)

ASU No. 2013-02 requires disclosure of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component.  In addition, an entity is required to present either on the face of the consolidated statements of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net earnings but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net earnings in its entirety in the same reporting period.  For amounts not reclassified in their entirety to net earnings, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts.  ASU No. 2013-02 is effective prospectively for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2013.  The Company does not expect that the adoption of this update will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

2. INVESTMENT IN UNPROVED OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

a) As of December 31, 2012, the Company has a 10% ownership interest in the Jollin and Tonono oil and gas concessions located in Salta Province, Argentina. SAHF originally purchased an 18% carry-over interest in the Jollin and Tonono concessions on May 15, 2007, and subsequently increased its ownership to 23.5%, 9% of which was carry-over and 14.5% of which was working.  SAHF in 2009 transferred 13.5% to Maxipetrol, under an arrangement where SAHF’s remaining 10% interest would be in a carry-over mode. SAHF received its foreign registration in Argentina and was admitted as a member of the joint venture on July 2, 2010. The joint venture is currently developing a future plan for continuing the exploration of the concessions.

b) As of December 31, 2012, the Company retains a 9% ownership interest in the Tartagal and Morillo oil and gas concessions located in Salta Province.  During 2007, SAHF had originally purchased an 18% ownership of these concessions. During 2008, SAHF exchanged 50% of its ownership in this investment with a third party, where the acquirer agreed to assume 50% of SAHF’s obligations with respect to future development expenses.

On March 28, 2011, the third party agreed to the transfer its 9% carried interest in the Tartagal and Morillo concession back to the Company, in exchange for 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, with a fair value of $50,000, and a percentage of proceeds in the event of an unexpected sale of the concession in excess of over $6 million, which brought the Company’s total interest in the Tartagal and Morillo concession to 18%.  The Company was admitted to the joint venture for these blocks on May 11, 2011.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

As of and for the Years Ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

As of March 30, 2012, the Company agreed to sell 50% of its ownership interest in this property to Principle Petroleum Limited (“PPL”) for $500,000.

The Company’s share of the development costs for the Tartagal and Morillo concessions will be repaid from 50% of the Company's share of the future production profits from the concessions.

Production from two Campo Alcoba test wells commenced in 2011 and continued into the 2012 second quarter. A work over of one the two previously reopened wells is planned, and currently an analytic test to drill one more exploratory well is under way. The Company began recognizing its share of the production from these two wells in the three months ending March 31, 2012.

c) During 2008, SAHF purchased 40% of the oil and gas exploration rights to five geographically defined areas in the Salta Province of Northern Argentina from Ketsal, SA (“Ketsal”) for $697,000 cash. In 2009, SAHF assigned 50% of its rights to a third party. As of December 31, 2012, SAHF owns 20% of the rights to this oil and gas concession.

The ownership interests in The Salta Province Exploration Rights Concession ("Salta Joint Venture") are:

● Consortium Ketsal Kilwa – 60% (managing partner)

● Ambika S.A. – 20%

● SAHF – 20%

SAHF is responsible for managing the drilling activities in the Salta Joint Venture and bears its pro-rata share of the costs.

Exploratory drilling activities commenced in April 2010 on the Guemes Block and the first well was spudded in September 2010. SAHF acted as the project manager for this drilling project, but did not charge the Salta Joint Venture a management fee.  Production testing to verify the commercial sustainability of the well still needs to be performed.

The UTE for this concession is in litigation with the drilling company that drilled the test well and has sued for an alleged $3,000,000 of additional expenses over and above the contract amount under the fixed price drilling contract, where the contract amount was set at $1,000,000, and overage amounts were to be set prior to execution.  The operator of the concession, Ketsal, is in the process of settlement negotiations. SAHF has no obligation or liability for any amounts paid in settlement of, or as a result of an adverse judgment in, this litigation. However, the resolution of this lawsuit may affect the schedule for the future development of this property.

d) On August 10, 2011, the Company’s tender offer, made through our wholly-owned subsidiary, SAHF, for the ownership right to explore, and eventually, produce oil and natural gas in the block known as “Valle de Lerma” was declared the winning bid by the Salta provincial government. SAHF made the offer in a joint venture agreement with Grasta SA, a local mid-size gasoline refinery located in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Other partners in the block include PetroNEXUS and REMSA. On October 25, 2011 SAHF was awarded an Exploration and Exploitation Oil & Gas Block License by the Government of Salta, Argentina.

The Valle de Lerma block is located in the province of Salta in the northwestern region of Argentina and has an area of 5259 km2. SAHF has done the measurement and survey study and filed an environmental impact study, which was approved.  Upon completion of the study it was determined that the actual well site was within the boundaries of the City of Salta, where government restrictions do not allow oil to be produced from this site.  We are currently negotiating with the government to add an additional site to the concession area from among three sites adjacent to the concession area with similar wells. When the extension of the concession area is accomplished, we will commence work on the new site, following receipt of all government approvals.  SAHF holds a majority of the license interest and is the responsible operator. The license allows SAHF 20 years to explore and produce hydrocarbons with a renewal option of ten more years. The exploration terms are four years for the first period, three years for the second and two years for the last period.

9. INCOME TAXES

The Company had not made provision for income taxes prior to the year ended December 31, 2012, since the Company has the benefit of net operating losses carried forward in these periods.  Domestic NOL carry-forwards were utilized in the computation of the provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Due to the operating loss of the Company's Argentina subsidiary, the Company is not required to pay any income tax in Argentina. However, the Company has been subject to the personal assets tax or Minimum Presumptive Tax (MPIT) on the assets owned by SAHF that has a branch office in Argentina.

Personal assets tax or MPIT applies to individuals with assets owned as of December 31st each year. Taxpayers are required to pay the equivalent of 0.5% to 1.25% of the assets owned as of that date, depending on their global tax value if it exceeds a certain amount. For resident individuals, the tax applies on assets owned in Argentina and abroad. For non-resident individuals, the tax applies only on assets owned in Argentina.

The law presumes (without admitting evidence to rebut the presumption) that shares, quotas and other participation interests held in the capital of Argentine companies (including branches) that are held by non-resident entities are indirectly owned by foreign individuals. The tax amounts to 0.5% annually (based on the equity value according to the financial statements), which must be paid by the Argentine companies.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company has approximately $100,000 and $0, respectively, of liabilities for uncertain tax positions.  For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company provided $100,000 for uncertain tax positions related to its investments in Argentina.  Interpretation of taxation rules relating to investments in Argentina concessions may give rise to uncertain tax positions.

Due to uncertainties surrounding the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income to realize these assets, a full valuation has been established to offset the net deferred income tax asset. Based on management’s assessment, utilizing an effective combined tax rate for federal and state taxes of approximately 39%, the Company has determined it to be more likely than not that a deferred income tax asset of approximately $2,132,220 and $2,071,000 attributable to the future utilization of the approximately $6,553,000,000 and $5,310,000 in eligible net operating loss carry-forwards as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, will not be realized.

The Company can give no assurance that those changes in political and other conditions will not result in have a material adverse effect upon the Company’s business and financial condition.

EXCHANGE RISK

The Company cannot guarantee the Argentinean Peso and US dollar exchange rate will remain steady, therefore the Company could post the same profit for two comparable periods and post higher or lower profit depending on exchange rate of Peso and US dollar. The exchange rate could fluctuate depending on changes in the political and economic environments without notice.

Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

Engagement of MaloneBailey, LLP

On February 20, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company accepted the resignation of Madsen & Associates, CPA’s Inc., its independent registered public accounting firm. On the same date, February 20, 2013, the accounting firm of MaloneBailey, LLP was engaged as the Company's new independent registered public accounting firm, to audit the Company’s financial statements for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. From the date that Madsen & Associates, CPA’s Inc.  were engaged, May 9, 2011, to the present time, or any other period of time, the reports of Madsen & Associates, CPA’s Inc. on the Company's financial statements did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or were qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that the report of Madsen & Associates, CPA’s Inc. as to the Company’s financial statements for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, were modified for uncertainty due to the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

During the Company's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim periods thereto, there were no disagreements with Madsen & Associates, CPA’s Inc., whether or not resolved, on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Madsen & Associates, CPA’s Inc., would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report on the Company's financial statements.

The Company has requested that Madsen & Associates, CPA’s Inc. furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. The letter is attached as an exhibit to this Form 8-K.

On February 20, 2013, the Company engaged MaloneBailey, LLP as its independent registered public accounting firm. During the two most recent fiscal years and the interim periods preceding the engagement, the Company has not consulted MaloneBailey, LLP regarding any of the matters set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(i) or (ii) of Regulation S-K.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

As supervised by our board of directors and our chief executive and principal financial officers, management has established a system of disclosure controls and procedures and has evaluated the effectiveness of that system.  The system and its evaluation are reported on in the below Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.  Our chief executive and financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the 1934 Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of December 31, 2012, not effective, based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15, based on a material weakness as of that date in our disclosure controls and procedures discussed below in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").  Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Management assessed the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. We carried out this assessment using the criteria of the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Management concluded in this assessment that as of December 31, 2012, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective due to the following material weakness. Our accounting department does not have the sophistication to critically evaluate and implement accounting principles in certain cases, and at times transactions are recorded improperly, or not recorded contemporaneously and require additional procedures and adjustments to be made by our staff and our auditors. We have implemented certain procedures related to improving the ability of our staff to properly record accounting transactions to help minimize the risks associated with this significant deficiency. Given these reportable conditions and material weaknesses, management devoted additional resources to resolving questions that arose during the period covered by this report. As a result we are confident our financial statements as of December 31, 2012, and for the two years then ended, fairly present in all material respects our financial condition and results of operations.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm, pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

There have been no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter of 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 9B. Other Information.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The Company's financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries where its ownership is more than 50 percent of the common stock.  All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including, but not limited to, those related to such items as impairments of oil and gas properties, income tax exposures, accruals, depreciable/useful lives, allowance for doubtful accounts, and valuation allowances.  The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

EVALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Oil and gas and mineral properties represent an important component of the Company’s total assets.  Management reviews long-lived assets for potential impairment whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Impairment exists when the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.  The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset.  If, impairment exists, the resulting write-down would be the difference between fair market value of the long-lived asset and the related net book value.

INVESTMENTS

Investments in non-consolidated affiliates consist of the Company’s ownership interests in oil and gas development and exploration rights in Argentina, net of impairment losses if any.  These investments were reclassified to unproved oil and gas properties after the Company was officially admitted into the joint ventures for each of the properties.

The Company evaluates these investments for impairment when indicators of potential impairment are present. Indicators of impairment include, but are not limited to, levels of oil and gas reserves, availability of pipeline (or other transportation) capacity and infrastructure and management of the operations in which the investments were made. The Company evaluates its equity method investments for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate, in management’s judgment, that the carrying value of such investments may have experienced an other-than-temporary decline in value. When evidence of loss in value has occurred, the Company compares fair value of the investment to its carrying value to determine whether impairment has occurred. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value and management considers the decline to be other than temporary, the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value is recognized as impairment in the consolidated financial statements.

OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

The Company accounts for our oil and natural gas producing activities using the full cost method of accounting as prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Under this method, subject to a limitation based on estimated value, all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration, and development of proved oil and natural gas properties, including internal costs directly associated with acquisition, exploration, and development activities, the costs of abandoned properties, dry holes, geophysical costs, and annual lease rentals are capitalized within a cost center. Costs of production and general and administrative corporate costs unrelated to acquisition, exploration, and development activities are expensed as incurred.

Costs associated with unevaluated properties are capitalized as oil and natural gas properties but are excluded from the amortization base during the evaluation period. When we determine whether the property has proved recoverable reserves or not, or if there is an impairment, the costs are transferred into the amortization base and thereby become subject to amortization.

The Company assesses all items classified as unevaluated property on at least an annual basis for inclusion in the amortization base. The Company assesses properties on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant. The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: intent to drill; remaining lease term; geological and geophysical evaluations; drilling results and activity; the assignment of proved reserves; and the economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned. During any period in which these factors indicate that there would be impairment, or if proved reserves are assigned to a property, the cumulative costs incurred to date for such property are transferred to the amortizable base and are then subject to amortization.

Capitalized costs included in the amortization base are depleted using the unit of production method based on proved reserves. Depletion is calculated using the capitalized costs included in the amortization base, including estimated asset retirement costs, plus the estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing proved reserves, net of estimated salvage values.

Beginning December 31, 2009, full cost companies use the un-weighted arithmetic average first day of the month price for oil and natural gas for the 12-month period preceding the calculation date. Prior to December 31, 2009, companies used the price in effect at the end of each accounting period and had the option, under certain circumstances, to elect to use subsequent commodity prices if they increased after the end of the accounting quarter.

Sales or other dispositions of oil and natural gas properties are accounted for as adjustments to capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recorded unless the ratio of cost to proved reserves would significantly change.

IMPAIRMENT

The net book value of all capitalized oil and natural gas properties within a cost center, less related deferred income taxes, is subject to a full cost ceiling limitation which is calculated quarterly. Under the ceiling limitation, costs may not exceed an aggregate of the present value of future net revenues attributable to proved oil and natural gas reserves discounted at 10 percent using current prices, plus the lower of cost or market value of unproved properties included in the amortization base, plus the cost of unevaluated properties, less any associated tax effects. Any excess of the net book value, less related deferred tax benefits, over the ceiling is written off as expense. Impairment expense recorded in one period may not be reversed in a subsequent period even though higher oil and gas prices may have increased the ceiling applicable to the subsequent period.  

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement cost, and corresponding liability as part of the cost of the related long-lived asset and the cost is subsequently allocated to expense using a systematic and rational method. The Company records an asset retirement obligation to reflect our legal obligations related to future plugging and abandonment of our oil and natural gas wells and gas gathering systems. The Company estimates the expected cash flow associated with the obligation and discount the amount using a credit-adjusted, risk-free interest rate. At least annually, the Company reassesses the obligation to determine whether a change in the estimated obligation is necessary. The Company evaluates whether there are indicators that suggest the estimated cash flows underlying the obligation have materially changed. Should those indicators suggest the estimated obligation may have materially changed on an interim basis (quarterly), the Company will update our assessment accordingly. Additional retirement obligations increase the liability associated with new oil and natural gas wells and gas gathering systems as these obligations are incurred.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided for by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The Company purchased oil field equipment during the fourth quarter of 2011.   The Company did not provide any depreciation on this equipment for the years ending December 31, 2012 and 2011, as the equipment was not yet in service.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. We follow the “sales method” of accounting for oil and natural gas revenue, so we recognize revenue on all natural gas or crude oil sold to purchasers, regardless of whether the sales are proportionate to our ownership in the property. Actual sales of gas are based on sales, net of the associated volume charges for processing fees and for costs associated with delivery, transportation, marketing, and royalties in accordance with industry standards. Operating costs and taxes are recognized in the same period in which revenue is earned.  Severance and ad valorem taxes are reflected as a component of lease operating expense.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the liability method. Under the liability method, deferred assets and liabilities are recognized based upon anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. The Company establishes a valuation allowance to the extent that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be utilized against future taxable income.

UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS

The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions pursuant to ASC Topic 740-10-25 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” which allows companies to recognize a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Those tax positions failing to qualify for initial recognition are recognized in the first interim period in which they meet the more likely than not standard, or are resolved through negotiation or litigation with the taxing authority, or upon expiration of the statute of limitations. De-recognition of a tax position that was previously recognized occurs when an entity subsequently determines that a tax position no longer meets the more likely than not threshold of being sustained.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company has approximately $100,000 and $0, respectively, of liabilities for uncertain tax positions.  For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company provided $100,000 for uncertain tax positions related to its investments in Argentina.  Interpretation of taxation rules relating to investments in Argentina concessions may give rise to uncertain positions.  In connection with the uncertain tax position, there was no interest or penalties recorded.

The Company is subject to ongoing tax exposures, examinations and assessments in various jurisdictions. Accordingly, the Company may incur additional tax expense based upon the outcomes of such matters. In addition, when applicable, the Company will adjust tax expense to reflect the Company’s ongoing assessments of such matters, which require judgment and can materially increase or decrease its effective rate as well as impact operating results.

The number of years with open tax audits varies depending on the tax jurisdiction. The Company’s major taxing jurisdictions include the United States (including applicable states).

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common share and potential common share outstanding during the period.  Potential common shares consist of outstanding common stock purchase warrants.  For the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were 8,211,517 and 7,900,649, respectively of potentially dilutive common shares outstanding. For the year ended December 31, 2011, their effect would be anti-dilutive. (see Note 12)

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

In 2012 and 2011, the functional currency for the Company’s primary foreign operations is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at balance sheet date rates of exchange and income, expense and cash flow items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The functional currency in South America is the Argentine Peso. Translation adjustments are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.

OTHER CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") recently issued “Financial Reporting Release No. 60 Cautionary Advice About Critical Accounting Policies” (“FRR 60”), suggesting companies provide additional disclosures, discussion and commentary on their accounting policies considered most critical to its business and financial reporting requirements. FRR 60 considers an accounting policy to be critical if it is important to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, and requires significant judgment and estimates on the part of management in the application of the policy. For a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies, including the critical accounting policies, please refer to the accompanying notes to the financial statements.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to non-employees under ASC 718, "Compensation-Stock Compensation" ("ASC 718").  The compensation cost of the awards is based on the grant date fair-value of these awards and recognized over the requisite service period, which is typically the vesting period.  For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued 28,800 and 10,267 shares, respectively, and recorded compensation expense in the amount of $7,260 and $2,080, respectively. The Company uses the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model to determine the fair-value of stock options issued for compensation.

The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards based upon ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.”  ASC 505-50 requires the costs of goods and services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments to be recognized using the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity award, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of the equity award is determined on the measurement date, which is the earlier of the date that a performance commitment is reached or the date that performance is complete.  Generally, our awards do not entail performance commitments.  When an award vests over time such that performance occurs over multiple reporting periods, we estimate the fair value of the award as of the end of each reporting period and recognize an appropriate portion of the cost based on the fair value on that date.  When the award vests, we adjust the cost previously recognized so that the cost ultimately recognized is equivalent to the fair value on the date the performance is complete.

For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company granted warrants to purchase 404,868 and 7,900,648, respectively of its common stock and recorded compensation expense of $109,561 and $184,896, respectively.  The Company also recorded $18,999 in additions to oil and gas properties for the year ended December 31, 2012.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL MEASUREMENTS

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. FASB ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

The Company utilizes the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and discloses for all financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis during the reporting period.

The fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures", establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.  These tiers are defined as follows:  

Level 1 - Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets.

Level 2 - Inputs other then quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

As of December 31, 2012, there were no financial assets or liabilities that required disclosure.

NEW FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-02 – Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment (“ASU No. 2012-02”)

ASU No. 2012-02 amends ASU No. 2011-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment, and permits an entity first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test in accordance with Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU No. 2012-02 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02 – Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“ASU No. 2013-02”)

ASU No. 2013-02 requires disclosure of amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component.  In addition, an entity is required to present either on the face of the consolidated statements of operations or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net earnings but only if the amount reclassified is required to be reclassified to net earnings in its entirety in the same reporting period.  For amounts not reclassified in their entirety to net earnings, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures that provide additional detail about those amounts.  ASU No. 2013-02 is effective prospectively for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning January 1, 2013.  The Company does not expect that the adoption of this update will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Description Of Business and Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract]

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The Company's financial statements include the accounts of all majority-owned subsidiaries where its ownership is more than 50 percent of the common stock.  All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

USE OF ESTIMATES

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including, but not limited to, those related to such items as impairments of oil and gas properties, income tax exposures, accruals, depreciable/useful lives, allowance for doubtful accounts, and valuation allowances.  The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

EVALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

EVALUATION OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Oil and gas and mineral properties represent an important component of the Company’s total assets.  Management reviews long-lived assets for potential impairment whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Impairment exists when the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value.  The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset.  If, impairment exists, the resulting write-down would be the difference between fair market value of the long-lived asset and the related net book value.

INVESTMENTS

INVESTMENTS

Investments in non-consolidated affiliates consist of the Company’s ownership interests in oil and gas development and exploration rights in Argentina, net of impairment losses if any.  These investments were reclassified to unproved oil and gas properties after the Company was officially admitted into the joint ventures for each of the properties.

The Company evaluates these investments for impairment when indicators of potential impairment are present. Indicators of impairment include, but are not limited to, levels of oil and gas reserves, availability of pipeline (or other transportation) capacity and infrastructure and management of the operations in which the investments were made. The Company evaluates its equity method investments for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate, in management’s judgment, that the carrying value of such investments may have experienced an other-than-temporary decline in value. When evidence of loss in value has occurred, the Company compares fair value of the investment to its carrying value to determine whether impairment has occurred. If the estimated fair value is less than the carrying value and management considers the decline to be other than temporary, the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value is recognized as impairment in the consolidated financial statements.

OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

The Company accounts for our oil and natural gas producing activities using the full cost method of accounting as prescribed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Under this method, subject to a limitation based on estimated value, all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration, and development of proved oil and natural gas properties, including internal costs directly associated with acquisition, exploration, and development activities, the costs of abandoned properties, dry holes, geophysical costs, and annual lease rentals are capitalized within a cost center. Costs of production and general and administrative corporate costs unrelated to acquisition, exploration, and development activities are expensed as incurred.

Costs associated with unevaluated properties are capitalized as oil and natural gas properties but are excluded from the amortization base during the evaluation period. When we determine whether the property has proved recoverable reserves or not, or if there is an impairment, the costs are transferred into the amortization base and thereby become subject to amortization.

The Company assesses all items classified as unevaluated property on at least an annual basis for inclusion in the amortization base. The Company assesses properties on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant. The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: intent to drill; remaining lease term; geological and geophysical evaluations; drilling results and activity; the assignment of proved reserves; and the economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned. During any period in which these factors indicate that there would be impairment, or if proved reserves are assigned to a property, the cumulative costs incurred to date for such property are transferred to the amortizable base and are then subject to amortization.

Capitalized costs included in the amortization base are depleted using the unit of production method based on proved reserves. Depletion is calculated using the capitalized costs included in the amortization base, including estimated asset retirement costs, plus the estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing proved reserves, net of estimated salvage values.

Beginning December 31, 2009, full cost companies use the un-weighted arithmetic average first day of the month price for oil and natural gas for the 12-month period preceding the calculation date. Prior to December 31, 2009, companies used the price in effect at the end of each accounting period and had the option, under certain circumstances, to elect to use subsequent commodity prices if they increased after the end of the accounting quarter.

Sales or other dispositions of oil and natural gas properties are accounted for as adjustments to capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recorded unless the ratio of cost to proved reserves would significantly change.

IMPAIRMENT

IMPAIRMENT

The net book value of all capitalized oil and natural gas properties within a cost center, less related deferred income taxes, is subject to a full cost ceiling limitation which is calculated quarterly. Under the ceiling limitation, costs may not exceed an aggregate of the present value of future net revenues attributable to proved oil and natural gas reserves discounted at 10 percent using current prices, plus the lower of cost or market value of unproved properties included in the amortization base, plus the cost of unevaluated properties, less any associated tax effects. Any excess of the net book value, less related deferred tax benefits, over the ceiling is written off as expense. Impairment expense recorded in one period may not be reversed in a subsequent period even though higher oil and gas prices may have increased the ceiling applicable to the subsequent period.

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement cost, and corresponding liability as part of the cost of the related long-lived asset and the cost is subsequently allocated to expense using a systematic and rational method. The Company records an asset retirement obligation to reflect our legal obligations related to future plugging and abandonment of our oil and natural gas wells and gas gathering systems. The Company estimates the expected cash flow associated with the obligation and discount the amount using a credit-adjusted, risk-free interest rate. At least annually, the Company reassesses the obligation to determine whether a change in the estimated obligation is necessary. The Company evaluates whether there are indicators that suggest the estimated cash flows underlying the obligation have materially changed. Should those indicators suggest the estimated obligation may have materially changed on an interim basis (quarterly), the Company will update our assessment accordingly. Additional retirement obligations increase the liability associated with new oil and natural gas wells and gas gathering systems as these obligations are incurred.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided for by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The Company purchased oil field equipment during the fourth quarter of 2011.   The Company did not provide any depreciation on this equipment for the years ending December 31, 2012 and 2011, as the equipment was not yet in service.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. We follow the “sales method” of accounting for oil and natural gas revenue, so we recognize revenue on all natural gas or crude oil sold to purchasers, regardless of whether the sales are proportionate to our ownership in the property. Actual sales of gas are based on sales, net of the associated volume charges for processing fees and for costs associated with delivery, transportation, marketing, and royalties in accordance with industry standards. Operating costs and taxes are recognized in the same period in which revenue is earned.  Severance and ad valorem taxes are reflected as a component of lease operating expense.

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the liability method. Under the liability method, deferred assets and liabilities are recognized based upon anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. The Company establishes a valuation allowance to the extent that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be utilized against future taxable income.

UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS

UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS

The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions pursuant to ASC Topic 740-10-25 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” which allows companies to recognize a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Those tax positions failing to qualify for initial recognition are recognized in the first interim period in which they meet the more likely than not standard, or are resolved through negotiation or litigation with the taxing authority, or upon expiration of the statute of limitations. De-recognition of a tax position that was previously recognized occurs when an entity subsequently determines that a tax position no longer meets the more likely than not threshold of being sustained.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company has approximately $100,000 and $0, respectively, of liabilities for uncertain tax positions.  For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company provided $100,000 for uncertain tax positions related to its investments in Argentina.  Interpretation of taxation rules relating to investments in Argentina concessions may give rise to uncertain positions.  In connection with the uncertain tax position, there was no interest or penalties recorded.

The Company is subject to ongoing tax exposures, examinations and assessments in various jurisdictions. Accordingly, the Company may incur additional tax expense based upon the outcomes of such matters. In addition, when applicable, the Company will adjust tax expense to reflect the Company’s ongoing assessments of such matters, which require judgment and can materially increase or decrease its effective rate as well as impact operating results.

The number of years with open tax audits varies depending on the tax jurisdiction. The Company’s major taxing jurisdictions include the United States (including applicable states).

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per common share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common share and potential common share outstanding during the period.  Potential common shares consist of outstanding common stock purchase warrants.  For the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were 8,211,517 and 7,900,649, respectively of potentially dilutive common shares outstanding. For the year ended December 31, 2011, their effect would be anti-dilutive. (see Note 12)

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

In 2012 and 2011, the functional currency for the Company’s primary foreign operations is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at balance sheet date rates of exchange and income, expense and cash flow items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The functional currency in South America is the Argentine Peso. Translation adjustments are recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.

OTHER CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

OTHER CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") recently issued “Financial Reporting Release No. 60 Cautionary Advice About Critical Accounting Policies” (“FRR 60”), suggesting companies provide additional disclosures, discussion and commentary on their accounting policies considered most critical to its business and financial reporting requirements. FRR 60 considers an accounting policy to be critical if it is important to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, and requires significant judgment and estimates on the part of management in the application of the policy. For a summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies, including the critical accounting policies, please refer to the accompanying notes to the financial statements.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to non-employees under ASC 718, "Compensation-Stock Compensation" ("ASC 718").  The compensation cost of the awards is based on the grant date fair-value of these awards and recognized over the requisite service period, which is typically the vesting period.  For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued 28,800 and 10,267 shares, respectively, and recorded compensation expense in the amount of $7,260 and $2,080, respectively. The Company uses the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model to determine the fair-value of stock options issued for compensation.

The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards based upon ASC 505-50, “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.”  ASC 505-50 requires the costs of goods and services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments to be recognized using the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity award, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of the equity award is determined on the measurement date, which is the earlier of the date that a performance commitment is reached or the date that performance is complete.  Generally, our awards do not entail performance commitments.  When an award vests over time such that performance occurs over multiple reporting periods, we estimate the fair value of the award as of the end of each reporting period and recognize an appropriate portion of the cost based on the fair value on that date.  When the award vests, we adjust the cost previously recognized so that the cost ultimately recognized is equivalent to the fair value on the date the performance is complete.

For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company granted warrants to purchase 404,868 and 7,900,648, respectively of its common stock and recorded compensation expense of $109,561 and $184,896, respectively.  The Company also recorded $18,999 in additions to oil and gas properties for the year ended December 31, 2012.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL MEASUREMENTS

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL MEASUREMENTS

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. FASB ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. FASB ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

The Company utilizes the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and discloses for all financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis during the reporting period.

The fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.  ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures", establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.  These tiers are defined as follows:  

Level 1 - Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets.

Level 2 - Inputs other then quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

As of December 31, 2012, there were no financial assets or liabilities that required disclosure.

Income Taxes [Abstract]

INCOME TAXES

9. INCOME TAXES

The Company had not made provision for income taxes prior to the year ended December 31, 2012, since the Company has the benefit of net operating losses carried forward in these periods.  Domestic NOL carry-forwards were utilized in the computation of the provision for income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Due to the operating loss of the Company's Argentina subsidiary, the Company is not required to pay any income tax in Argentina. However, the Company has been subject to the personal assets tax or Minimum Presumptive Tax (MPIT) on the assets owned by SAHF that has a branch office in Argentina.

Personal assets tax or MPIT applies to individuals with assets owned as of December 31st each year. Taxpayers are required to pay the equivalent of 0.5% to 1.25% of the assets owned as of that date, depending on their global tax value if it exceeds a certain amount. For resident individuals, the tax applies on assets owned in Argentina and abroad. For non-resident individuals, the tax applies only on assets owned in Argentina.

The law presumes (without admitting evidence to rebut the presumption) that shares, quotas and other participation interests held in the capital of Argentine companies (including branches) that are held by non-resident entities are indirectly owned by foreign individuals. The tax amounts to 0.5% annually (based on the equity value according to the financial statements), which must be paid by the Argentine companies.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company has approximately $100,000 and $0, respectively, of liabilities for uncertain tax positions.  For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company provided $100,000 for uncertain tax positions related to its investments in Argentina.  Interpretation of taxation rules relating to investments in Argentina concessions may give rise to uncertain tax positions.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of the liability for uncertain tax positions is as follows:

	2012		2011
Liability for uncertain tax
positions – January 1,	$	-	$	-
Additions based on tax positions
related to current year		100,000		-
Expiration of statutes of limitations		-		-
Liability for uncertain tax positions
- December 31,	$	100,000	$	-

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits arising from uncertain tax positions as a component of the current provision for income taxes.  During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized approximately $10,000 and $-0-, respectively, of such interest and penalties in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company has approximately $10,000 and $-0- accrued for interest and penalties at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, which is included in liability for uncertain tax positions in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

The Company’s total earnings (loss) before provision (benefit) for income taxes included earnings (loss) from domestic operations of $5,286,391 and $(764,887) for 2012 and 2011, respectively, and loss from foreign operations of $(243,242) and $(21,939), for 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The provision (benefit) for income taxes consists of the following:

	2012		2011
Current:
Federal	$	508,821	$	-
Foreign		100,000		-

A reconciliation of taxes on income computed at the federal statutory rate to amounts provided as follows:

	2012			2013
Tax provision (benefit)

State taxes - net of federal
benefit		175,000			-
Unused tax losses		-			268,000
	$	783,590		$	-

The Company has been current in paying the MPIT.  This is not an income tax, which, is why it is not included in our tax provision.

Deferred income tax assets consist of:

	December 31,
	2012			2011
Net operating loss carry-forwards	$	2,132,220		$	2,071,000
Less valuation allowance		(2,132,220	)		(2,071,000	)
Deferred income tax assets, net	$	--		$	--

Due to uncertainties surrounding the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income to realize these assets, a full valuation has been established to offset the net deferred income tax asset. Based on management’s assessment, utilizing an effective combined tax rate for federal and state taxes of approximately 39%, the Company has determined it to be more likely than not that a deferred income tax asset of approximately $2,132,220 and $2,071,000 attributable to the future utilization of the approximately $6,553,000,000 and $5,310,000 in eligible net operating loss carry-forwards as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, will not be realized. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate. The net operating loss carry-forwards will begin to expire in varying amounts from year 2019 to 2029.

The Company is subject to taxation in the United States and certain state jurisdictions. The Company’s tax years for 2008 and forward are subject to examination by the United States and applicable state tax authorities due to the carry forward of unutilized net operating losses.

OTHER INCOME

10. OTHER INCOME

During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company incurred foreign exchange losses of approximately $0 and $20,000, respectively, on its US dollar denominated payments to its SAHF subsidiary for operating expenses. During the year ended December 31, 2012 approximately $134,000 of contested consultant and legal fees was resolved, and the Company reversed the related accrued liabilities.  During the year ended December 31, 2011, approximately $66,000 of contested severance liabilities were resolved through legal proceedings and the Company reversed the related accrued liability.

Effective March 30, 2012, the Company entered into the Cooperation Agreement with Principle Petroleum Ltd. (“PPL”). Under the Cooperation Agreement, PPL agreed to pay us $7,000,000 for certain exploration and exploitation rights to oil and gas deposits and certain bidding rights held by Delta on the following areas: Tartagal & Morillo (pursuant to a separate agreement), Valle de Lerma in the province of Salta; San Salvador de Jujuy; Libertador General San Martin in the province of Jujuy; and Selva Maria in the province of Formosa.  $7.0 million of these proceeds are attributable to bidding rights for which the Company has no cost basis. The proceeds are non refundable in the event the Company is unsuccessful in the bids.  Therefore, the Company recognized a gain of $7.0 million for the sale of these bidding rights during the year ended December 31, 2012.  The remaining $500,000 of these proceeds were attributable to the sale of 50% of the Company's interest in the Tartagal and Morillo concession blocks.  The Company had a basis of $255,000 in these properties at the time and, therefore, a gain of $245,000 was recognized on the sale of these properties.

Investment In Unproved Oil and Gas Properties [Abstract]

INVESTMENT IN UNPROVED OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

2. INVESTMENT IN UNPROVED OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

a) As of December 31, 2012, the Company has a 10% ownership interest in the Jollin and Tonono oil and gas concessions located in Salta Province, Argentina. SAHF originally purchased an 18% carry-over interest in the Jollin and Tonono concessions on May 15, 2007, and subsequently increased its ownership to 23.5%, 9% of which was carry-over and 14.5% of which was working.  SAHF in 2009 transferred 13.5% to Maxipetrol, under an arrangement where SAHF’s remaining 10% interest would be in a carry-over mode. SAHF received its foreign registration in Argentina and was admitted as a member of the joint venture on July 2, 2010. The joint venture is currently developing a future plan for continuing the exploration of the concessions.

b) As of December 31, 2012, the Company retains a 9% ownership interest in the Tartagal and Morillo oil and gas concessions located in Salta Province.  During 2007, SAHF had originally purchased an 18% ownership of these concessions. During 2008, SAHF exchanged 50% of its ownership in this investment with a third party, where the acquirer agreed to assume 50% of SAHF’s obligations with respect to future development expenses.

On March 28, 2011, the third party agreed to the transfer its 9% carried interest in the Tartagal and Morillo concession back to the Company, in exchange for 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, with a fair value of $50,000, and a percentage of proceeds in the event of an unexpected sale of the concession in excess of over $6 million, which brought the Company’s total interest in the Tartagal and Morillo concession to 18%.  The Company was admitted to the joint venture for these blocks on May 11, 2011.

As of March 30, 2012, the Company agreed to sell 50% of its ownership interest in this property to Principle Petroleum Limited (“PPL”) for $500,000.

The Company’s share of the development costs for the Tartagal and Morillo concessions will be repaid from 50% of the Company's share of the future production profits from the concessions.

Production from two Campo Alcoba test wells commenced in 2011 and continued into the 2012 second quarter. A work over of one the two previously reopened wells is planned, and currently an analytic test to drill one more exploratory well is under way. The Company began recognizing its share of the production from these two wells in the three months ending March 31, 2012.

c) During 2008, SAHF purchased 40% of the oil and gas exploration rights to five geographically defined areas in the Salta Province of Northern Argentina from Ketsal, SA (“Ketsal”) for $697,000 cash. In 2009, SAHF assigned 50% of its rights to a third party. As of December 31, 2012, SAHF owns 20% of the rights to this oil and gas concession.

The ownership interests in The Salta Province Exploration Rights Concession ("Salta Joint Venture") are:

● Consortium Ketsal Kilwa – 60% (managing partner)

● Ambika S.A. – 20%

● SAHF – 20%

SAHF is responsible for managing the drilling activities in the Salta Joint Venture and bears its pro-rata share of the costs.

Exploratory drilling activities commenced in April 2010 on the Guemes Block and the first well was spudded in September 2010. SAHF acted as the project manager for this drilling project, but did not charge the Salta Joint Venture a management fee.  Production testing to verify the commercial sustainability of the well still needs to be performed.

The UTE for this concession is in litigation with the drilling company that drilled the test well and has sued for an alleged $3,000,000 of additional expenses over and above the contract amount under the fixed price drilling contract, where the contract amount was set at $1,000,000, and overage amounts were to be set prior to execution.  The operator of the concession, Ketsal, is in the process of settlement negotiations. SAHF has no obligation or liability for any amounts paid in settlement of, or as a result of an adverse judgment in, this litigation. However, the resolution of this lawsuit may affect the schedule for the future development of this property.

d) On August 10, 2011, the Company’s tender offer, made through our wholly-owned subsidiary, SAHF, for the ownership right to explore, and eventually, produce oil and natural gas in the block known as “Valle de Lerma” was declared the winning bid by the Salta provincial government. SAHF made the offer in a joint venture agreement with Grasta SA, a local mid-size gasoline refinery located in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Other partners in the block include PetroNEXUS and REMSA. On October 25, 2011 SAHF was awarded an Exploration and Exploitation Oil & Gas Block License by the Government of Salta, Argentina.

The Valle de Lerma block is located in the province of Salta in the northwestern region of Argentina and has an area of 5259 km2. SAHF has done the measurement and survey study and filed an environmental impact study, which was approved.  Upon completion of the study it was determined that the actual well site was within the boundaries of the City of Salta, where government restrictions do not allow oil to be produced from this site.  We are currently negotiating with the government to add an additional site to the concession area from among three sites adjacent to the concession area with similar wells. When the extension of the concession area is accomplished, we will commence work on the new site, following receipt of all government approvals.  SAHF holds a majority of the license interest and is the responsible operator. The license allows SAHF 20 years to explore and produce hydrocarbons with a renewal option of ten more years. The exploration terms are four years for the first period, three years for the second and two years for the last period.

SAHF currently owns 60% of the rights to explore Valle de Lerma; GRASTA owns 5%; PetroNEXUS owns 30%; and REMSA owns 5%.  Pursuant to the agreements with PPL, PPL agreed to pay us $7,000,000 for certain exploration and exploitation rights to oil and gas deposits and certain bidding rights held by Delta, in specified properties, including Valle de Lerma.

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

12. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basie and diluted earnings (loss per common share is presented in accordance with ASC Topic 260 “Earnings per share.” Common stock warrants have been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 in the statements of operations, because all such securities were anti dilutive.  Basic net earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net earnings (loss) per share by the weighted average number of share outstanding during the periods.  Diluted net earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net earnings by the weighted average number of shares and potential shares outstanding during the period.

The weighted average shares outstanding used in the computations of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are as follows:

	Year Ended December 31,
	2012		2011
Basic weighted average shares outstanding		31,908,985		30,273,185
Potential common shares		2,919,584		-
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding		34,828,569		30,273,185
