REOSTAR ENERGY CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. They do not include all information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principals for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB of ReoStar Energy Corporation for the year ended March 31, 2008. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month and six-month period ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2009. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company's management who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. The Company's accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of these financial statements.

(2) CAPITAL STOCK

We have authorized capital stock of 200 million shares of common stock. There were 80,181,310 shares of common stock issued and outstanding throughout the quarter ended September 30, 2008.

On July 25, 2008, the Board of Directors approved the 2008 Long-Term Incentive Plan whereby the Company reserved 8,000,000 shares of stock for issuance under the plan. The Board also approved the grant of 1,500,000 options to certain officers under the plan. The options have a strike price of $0.35 per share, which was the closing price on July 24, 2008, and expire on July 25, 2018. The options vest over a three year period, with the first third vesting on March 31, 2009. The options were valued at $679,992 using the Black-Scholes model with a volatility of 194%.

On April 1, 2007, ReoStar entered into employment contracts with certain officers. In conjunction with the employment contracts, the company approved the issuance of 700,000 shares of restricted stock. Of the 700,000 shares issued, 350,000 shares vested on March 31, 2008. The unvested portion of the restricted stock grant was cancelled in conjunction with the stock option grant described above. For the quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, Salaries and Benefits included stock related compensation costs of $0 and $145,689, respectively. For the six months ended September 31, 2008 and 2007, Salaries and Benefits included stock related compensation costs of $48,564 and $289,759, respectively. For each period, a liability of an equal amount was recorded as a contingent stock based compensation liability.

On April 1, 2007, ReoStar also entered into a stock option arrangement with two outside members of its board of directors. Both board members received stock options of 50,000 shares with a strike price of $1.11, one-third of which vest annually on March 31 2008, 2009, and 2010. In August 2008, one of the board members notified the company of his intention to renounce his stock options. For the quarters ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 other General & Administrative expenses included stock option costs of $0 and $9,845, respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 other General & Administrative expenses included stock option costs of $5,316 and $19,691, respectively.

As a result of the above, the Company has an excess accrual in the contingent stock based compensation liability account. The following table summarizes the expected stock based compensation expense over the next three fiscal years.

On June 11, 2008, the Company entered into a promissory note with a related third party. The note was extended on June 21, 2008, is due March 31, 2010, and bears interest, payable quarterly, of 15%. As additional consideration, the Company granted 100,000 stock warrants with a strike price of $0.50 per share, which was the closing price of the company's stock on June 11, 2008. The warrants expire on June 30, 2012. The Company calculated the cost of the warrant to be $36,967 using the Black-Scholes model with a volatility of 108%. The cost of the warrant was recorded as capitalized interest.

(4) SHORT TERM NOTES PAYABLE
During the first quarter, the Company drew $525,000 down on the Frost Bank line of credit. The outstanding balance was $525,000 at September 30, 2008.

(5) NOTE RECEIVABLE
During the quarter, the Company agreed to renew the note receivable from our drilling contractor. As part of the renewal, the Company agreed to waive outstanding unpaid interest of $32,785. The drilling contractor agreed to make a principal payment of $750,000 in November, 2008. The balance of the note will be repaid with monthly payments of $50,000 beginning in December, 2008 and will accrue interest at 10% annually.

(6) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On October 30, 2008, the Company entered into a $25,000,000 senior secured credit facility. Initially, the borrowing base is set at $14,000,000. The borrowing base is based upon the Company's proven oil and gas reserves and is re-evaluated semi-annually. The note bears interest based upon the greater of 1) the rate announced publicly from time to time by the bank plus a margin that varies between 0.0% and 0.5% depending upon the percentage of borrowing base drawn and 2) the Federal funds rate plus a margin that varies between 0.5% and 1.0% depending upon the percentage of borrowing base drawn. At the Company's option, we may elect to make a Eurodollar advance. The interest rate on a Eurodollar advance is LIBOR plus a margin that ranges between 2.00% and 2.75% depending upon the percentage of borrowing base drawn. The credit facility matures October 30, 2011.

Overview of Our Business


We are engaged in the exploration, development and acquisition of oil and gas properties, primarily located in the state of Texas. We seek to increase oil and gas reserves and production through internally generated drilling projects, coupled with complementary acquisitions.

At April 1, 2008, a certified engineering firm valued our proven reserves at $425,445,500, which reflects the present value of our future net cash flows from reserves before income taxes, discounted at 10 percent.

We own approximately 20,000 gross (16,250 net) acres of leasehold, which includes 16,000 acres of exploratory and developmental prospects as well as 4,000 acres of enhanced oil recovery prospects. We have built a multi-year inventory of drilling projects and drilling locations and currently have enough acreage to sustain several years of drilling.

Our corporate offices are located at 3880 Hulen Street, Suite 500, Fort Worth, Texas 76107. Our telephone number is (817) 989-7367.

Business Strategy

Our objective is to build shareholder value by establishing and consistently growing our production and reserves with a strong emphasis on cost control and risk mitigation. Our strategy is (1) to control operations of all our leases via our affiliated operating companies, (2) to acquire and develop leasehold in key regional resource development plays while utilizing existing infrastructure and engaging in long-term drilling and development programs, and (3) to acquire leasehold in mature fields and implement enhanced oil recovery programs.

Significant Accomplishments in the Second Quarter

Barnett Shale: We brought all four wells that were in flow-back at the end of the first quarter on line in July.

We began drilling our fourth "cluster" of wells in July. This cluster was comprised of three wells that are stepped out from the previously drilled clusters. All three wells were fractured using high pressure stimulation over a three day period in early October. Flow back began immediately, and we expect to bring all three wells online in November.

Corsicana: We began drilling the second stage of the surfactant-polymer project in the first quarter. A total of 13 new wells are in the process of being drilled, of which four wells will be injectors and nine will be producers. The expansion will continue the drilling pattern established whereby each injector has approximately four producers surrounding it (inverted five-spot drilling pattern). Through the end of the second quarter, we have drilled 12 of the second stage wells, and began the process of expanding our plant to accommodate the addition of an alkali injection process as well as the new injector wells. The Company is adding an alkali solution to its injection process in order to help stabilize clays in the formation and prevent them from swelling; this should improve the sweep efficiency of the flood.

We continue to acquire the deeper rights to leases as well as ratifying title to current leasehold. The Company has applied for an area injection permit and expects to have the permit applicable to all of its


7



leasehold interests in Corsicana, which will result in a reduction of costs and improved efficiencies. One exploratory well (Pecan Gap formation) was drilled during the first quarter, and another exploratory well (Glen Rose formation) was drilled in the second quarter. Both wells were not completed, as the logs did not show sufficient hydrocarbons to make the wells economic. We plan to drill up to three more wells in the Pecan Gap formation. We have reduced the exploration risk associated with drilling these deeper wells by selling a 50% working interest in each of these wells to our industry partner.

Industry Environment

Oil is a global fungible commodity. The globalization of the world's economy, the rapid development of the emerging markets, and increased commodity speculation have resulted in unprecedented commodity pricing and volatility. Oil prices peaked at unprecedented highs in July before contracting significantly. By early November, oil prices were down nearly 60% from the July highs.

While natural gas is also a fungible commodity, it is more regional in nature than oil. Constant changes in regional supplies and demand have resulted in significant pricing volatility in the natural gas market as well. Natural gas prices (the Houston Ship Channel index) peaked at $13 per MMBTU in early July and have since then dropped by more than 50%.

The recent trend of increasing commodity prices has placed increased upward pressure on finding and development costs. For example, during the quarter, a shortage of pipe caused casing and tubing prices to dramatically increase, which resulted in a material increase in total completion costs.

We believe the acquisition market for U.S. natural gas properties has become extremely competitive as producers vie for additional production and expanded drilling opportunities. We expect drilling and service costs pressures to ease slightly, but expect them to remain at a high level relative to past pricing. In addition, we expect lease operating expenses to continue to rise as producers are forced to make operational enhancements to maintain production in more mature fields.

We believe that in order for an independent oil and gas producer to be successful, the producer must either operate its leases effectively or have significant operational control over its oil and gas properties. As commodity prices fluctuate, controlling costs through operations will make the difference between turning a profit and incurring a financial loss.

Principal Components of Our Cost Structure

Direct Operating Expenses. These are day-to-day costs incurred to bring hydrocarbons out of the ground and to the market together with the daily costs incurred to maintain our producing properties. Such costs also include work-over repairs to our oil and gas properties not covered by insurance. We continue to acquire miscellaneous oil field equipment in the pursuit of operational cost control.

Production and Ad Valorem Taxes. These costs are primarily paid based on a percentage of market prices or at fixed rates established by federal, state or local taxing authorities.

Exploration Expense. The costs include geological and geophysical costs, seismic costs, delay rentals and the costs of unsuccessful wells or dry holes. While our current asset mix requires a minimum of geological and geophysical costs and seismic costs, it is possible this component of our cost structure could sharply increase depending upon future property acquisitions.

Plugging Costs. The Corsicana field is over one hundred years old and has hundreds of abandoned well bores scattered throughout the properties. In order to properly execute our enhanced oil recovery projects, we need to plug these abandoned, worn out well bores. Since the wells are fairly shallow, we are able to cement in the entire well bore at a cost of less than $1,500 per well. To date we have plugged over 150 old well bores in the Corsicana field and will continue to maintain a schedule of plugging wells throughout the year.

General and Administrative Expenses. Overhead, including payroll and benefits for our corporate staff, costs of maintaining our headquarters, costs of finding our working interest partners, costs of managing our production and development operations, audit and other professional fees and legal compliance are included in general and administrative expense. General and administrative expense includes stock-based compensation expense (non-cash) associated with the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), amortization of restricted stock grants as part of employee compensation.

Interest. Historically, we carry minimum levels of interest burdened debt. However, in October, we closed on a senior secured credit facility, and, consequently, interest expense will become a much more prevalent component of our cost structure.

Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization. As a successful efforts company, we capitalize all costs associated with our acquisition and all successful development and exploration efforts, and apportion these costs to each unit of production through depreciation, depletion and amortization expense. This also includes the systematic, monthly depreciation of our oilfield equipment assets.

Income Taxes. We are subject to state and federal income taxes but are currently in a minimal tax paying position for regular federal income taxes, primarily due to the current deductibility of intangible drilling costs ("IDC"). We are also subject to some state income taxes. Currently, virtually all of our Federal taxes are deferred; however, at some point, we will recognize current income tax expense and continue to recognize current tax expense as long as we are generating taxable income.

Results and Analysis of Financial Condition, Cash Flows and Liquidity


During the quarter ended September 30, 2008, we sold approximately 11,565 barrels of oil compared with approximately 7,800 barrels of oil for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, an increase of approximately 48%. The average price for oil sold during the quarter ended June 30, 2008 was $115.90 per barrel compared with the average price for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 of $71.50 per barrel, an increase of 62%.

We sold approximately 124,300 mcf of gas for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 compared with 82,030 mcf of gas for the quarter ended September 30, 2007, an increase of approximately 50%. The average price for natural gas sold during the quarter ended September 30, 2008 was $7.57 per mcf (net of transportation, compression and CO2 charges) compared with $5.45 per mcf for the quarter ended September 30, 2008, an increase of approximately 39%.

Oil and gas revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2008 were $2,282,048, compared with $1,019,222 during the quarter ended September 30, 2007, an increase of approximately 123%. Oil and gas revenues for the six months ended September 30, 2008 were $5,034,795, compared with $1,833,146 for the six months ended September 30, 2007, an increase of approximately 174%.

During the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2008, we incurred drilling costs of approximately $0.4 million.

On September 30, 2008, we had $0.28 million in cash and total assets of $25.5 million. Debt consisted of accounts and notes payables to non-related parties of $3.7 million, of which, $1.5 million is long-term. We also had accounts and notes payables to related parties of $8.4 million.

During the quarter we retained an investment banking firm to assist us in securing financing to fund our Barnett development and Corsicana re-development programs. The tightening credit market has reduced the opportunities to secure financing at terms that are acceptable to our Board. However, subsequent to quarter end we closed on a $25MM senior secured credit facility. The material terms of the credit facility were reported on our Form 8K filed on November 4, 2008.

We continue to consider various other financing options which may or may not be implemented during this fiscal year.

Cash Flow
Our principal sources of cash are operating cash flow, the sale of a portion of the working interest in our Barnett Shale drilling projects, the credit facility and other financing options, including debt and equity, which may be available to us from time to time. Our operating cash flow is highly dependent on oil and gas prices.

Based on current projections and oil and gas futures prices, the balance of the 2009 capital program is expected to be funded with internal cash flow and the proceeds of the credit facility.

There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional capital through a subordinated credit facility, private placements or otherwise. Even if we are successful in raising capital through the sources specified, there can be no assurances that any such financing would be available in a timely manner or on terms acceptable to us and our current shareholders. Additional equity financing could be dilutive to our shareholders, and any debt financing could involve restrictive covenants with respect to future capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters.

Capital Requirements

Our primary needs for cash are for exploration and development of our Barnett Shale properties, expanding the enhanced oil recovery projects in our Corsicana properties, and the acquisition of additional oil and gas properties, both in unconventional gas plays and mature fields. Due to the tightening credit and equity markets, the increased costs, and the recent contraction in commodity pricing, we have revised our capital expenditure budget for the current fiscal year downward to $12.5 million.

Our drilling budget for the Barnett acreage is $9.7 million for fiscal year 2009. To date we have completed the seven wells that were in process at year-end and have drilled and completed six more wells in our main area of interest in Cooke County. We plan to drill up to 10 more wells by the end of the fiscal year. We will retain up to 60% working interest in the new wells. We expect to fund the drilling with the proceeds of the credit facility, proceeds from the sale of up to 40% working interest in each well on a turnkey basis, and cash flow from production.

We expect to re-complete at least 16 wells in up-hole zones in fiscal year 2009 at an average cost for our working interest of approximately $50,000 per well. We expect to fund the entire re-completions out of cash flow.

We have initiated phase two of the Corsicana pilot project and we expect to complete the project during the last half of this fiscal year. Funding for this phase will be achieved primarily through our $25MM credit facility. The revised capital expenditure budget for our Corsicana project for this fiscal year is $2 million.

There can be no assurance that internal cash flow and other capital sources will provide sufficient funds to maintain capital expenditures that we believe are necessary to efficiently develop our properties and offset inherent declines in production and proved reserves.

Future Commitments
In addition to our capital expenditure program, we are committed to making cash payments in the future on two types of contracts: note agreements and operating leases. As of September 30, 2008, we have no capital leases nor have we entered into any material long-term contracts for equipment, nor do we have any off-balance sheet debt or other such unrecorded obligations.

The table below provides estimates of the timing of future payments that we are obligated to make based on agreements in place at September 30, 2008. In addition to the contractual obligations listed on the table below, our balance sheet at September 30, 2008 reflects accrued interest payable on our debt of $667,512, of which $98,750 is related to the Lease Notes Payable, which will not be due until the associated acreage is either sold or drilled.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not currently utilize any off-balance sheet arrangements to enhance liquidity and capital resource position, or for any other purpose.

Inflation and Changes in Prices
Our revenues, the value of our assets, and our ability to obtain bank loans or additional capital on attractive terms have been and will continue to be affected by changes in oil and gas prices and the costs to produce our reserves. Oil and gas prices are subject to significant fluctuations that are beyond our ability to control or predict. The hedges put in place in the prior year have all expired. Currently, the Company has no future production hedged.

Although certain of our costs and expenses are affected by general inflation, inflation does not normally have a significant effect on our business. In a trend that began in 2004 and accelerated during the quarter, commodity prices for oil and gas increased significantly. The higher prices have led to increased activity in the industry and, consequently, rising costs. These costs trends have put pressure not only on our operating costs but also on our capital costs. Industry capital costs have nearly doubled during the last two years. Industry analysts expect the trend to continue during the next fiscal year.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon consolidated financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at year-end and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable; however, actual results may differ.

Certain accounting estimates are considered to be critical if (a) the nature of the estimates and assumptions is material due to the level of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to changes; and (b) the impact of the estimates and assumptions on financial condition or operating performance is material.

Successful Efforts Method of Accounting

We account for our exploration and development activities utilizing the successful efforts method of accounting. Under this method, costs of productive exploratory wells, development dry holes and



11



productive wells and undeveloped leases are capitalized. Oil and natural gas lease acquisition costs are also capitalized. Exploration costs, including personnel costs, certain geological and geophysical expenses and delay rentals for oil and natural gas leases, are charged to expense as incurred. Exploratory drilling costs are initially capitalized, but charged to expense if and when the well is determined not to have found reserves in commercial quantities. The sale of a partial interest in a proved property is accounted for as a cost recovery and no gain or loss is recognized as long as this treatment does not significantly affect the unit-of-production amortization rate. A gain or loss is recognized for all other sales of producing properties.

The application of the successful efforts method of accounting requires managerial judgment to determine the proper classification of wells designated as developmental or exploratory which will ultimately determine the proper accounting treatment of the costs incurred. The results from a drilling operation can take considerable time to analyze and the determination that commercial reserves have been discovered requires both judgment and industry experience. Wells may be completed that are assumed to be productive and actually deliver oil and natural gas in quantities insufficient to be economic, which may result in the abandonment of the wells at a later date. The evaluation of oil and natural gas leasehold acquisition costs requires managerial judgment to estimate the fair value of these costs with reference to drilling activity in a given area.

The successful efforts method of accounting can have a significant impact on the operational results reported when we enter a new exploratory area in hopes of finding an oil and natural gas field that will be the focus of future developmental drilling activity. The initial exploratory wells may be unsuccessful and will be expensed. Seismic costs can be substantial which will result in additional exploration expenses when incurred.

To ensure the reliability of our reserve estimates, we engage independent petroleum consultants to prepare an estimate of proved reserves. The SEC defines proved reserves as those volumes of crude oil, condensate, natural gas liquids and natural gas that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty are recoverable from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are volumes expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Although our engineers are knowledgeable of and follow the guidelines for reserves established by the SEC, the estimation of reserves requires engineers to make a significant number of assumptions based on professional judgment. Reserve estimates are updated at least annually and consider recent production levels and other technical information. Estimated reserves are often subject to future revisions, which could be substantial, based on the availability of additional information, including: reservoir performance, new geological and geophysical data, additional drilling, technological advancements, price and cost changes and other economic factors. Changes in oil and gas prices can lead to a decision to start-up or shut-in production, which can lead to revisions to reserve quantities. Reserve revisions in turn cause adjustments in the depletion rates utilized by us. We cannot predict what reserve revisions may be required in future periods.

We monitor our long-lived assets recorded in property, plant and equipment in our consolidated balance sheet to ensure they are fairly presented. We must evaluate our properties for potential impairment when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset could exceed its fair value. A significant amount of judgment is involved in performing these evaluations since the results are based on estimated future events. Such events include a projection of future oil and natural gas sales prices, an estimate of the ultimate amount of recoverable oil and gas reserves that will be produced from a field, the timing of future production, future production costs, future abandonment costs, and future inflation. The need to test a property for impairment can be based on several factors, including a significant reduction in sales prices for oil and/or gas, unfavorable adjustment to reserves, physical damage to production equipment and facilities, a change in costs, or other changes to contracts, environmental regulations or tax laws. All of these factors must be considered when testing a property's carrying value for impairment. We cannot predict whether impairment charges may be required in the future. We are required to develop estimates of fair value to allocate purchase prices paid to acquire businesses to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed under the purchase method of accounting. The purchase price paid to acquire a business is allocated to its assets and liabilities based on the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition. We use all available information to make these fair value determinations.


12



Deferred Taxes

We are subject to income and other taxes in all areas in which we operate. When recording income tax expense, certain estimates are required because income tax returns are generally filed many months after the close of a calendar year, tax returns are subject to audit which can take years to complete and future events often impact the timing of when income tax expenses and benefits are recognized. We have deferred tax assets relating to tax operating loss carry forwards and other deductible differences. We routinely evaluate deferred tax assets to determine the likelihood of realization. A valuation allowance is recognized on deferred tax assets when we believe that certain of these assets are not likely to be realized. In determining deferred tax liabilities, accounting rules require OCI to be considered, even though such income or loss has not yet been earned.

At September 30, 2008, deferred tax liabilities exceeded deferred tax assets by $2.8 million. We may be challenged by taxing authorities over the amount and/or timing of recognition of revenues and deductions in our various income tax returns. Although we believe that we have adequately provided for all taxes, gains or losses could occur in the future due to changes in estimates or resolution of outstanding tax matters.

Contingent Liabilities

A provision for legal, environmental and other contingent matters is charged to expense when the loss is probable and the cost or range of costs can be reasonably estimated. Judgment is often required to determine when expenses should be recorded for legal, environmental and contingent matters. In addition, we often must estimate the amount of such losses. In many cases, our judgment is based on the input of our legal advisors and on the interpretation of laws and regulations, which can be interpreted differently by regulators and/or the courts. We monitor known and potential legal, environmental and other contingent matters and make our best estimate of when to record losses for these matters based on available information. We currently have no material accruals for contingent liabilities.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.


On September 15, 2008, a royalty owner in the Corsicana polymer pilot, representing approximately one-third of the mineral ownership, filed an amendment to a suit originally filed in 2007. The amendment was filed to include the Company as a defendant. The suit, filed in the 13th Judicial District Court in Navarro County, Texas, alleges the lease has expired because no oil was produced from January 2005 through September 2005. The Plaintiff has asked the court to declare the lease to be void; demands payment for any oil produced and sold subsequent to the time the lease expired; demands that all equipment and salvage located on the lease be given by Court order to the Plaintiff; and asks that any plugging liability be adjudged to be the responsibility of the Company.

The other royalty owners representing the remaining two-thirds mineral ownership have ratified the lease. In October 2008, the Court issued an order requiring the Company and plaintiff to attend mediation to settle the matter.
