BLUGRASS ENERGY INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2011
 
Organization – Nature of Operations
 
Blugrass Energy Inc. (the “Company” or “Blugrass”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 19, 2006, as Coastal Media Inc.  The Company was originally formed to engage in the business of manufacturing, marketing, distributing and selling its marine DVDs.  On September 11, 2008, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name from "Coastal Media Inc." to "Blugrass Energy Inc.", to reflect the change in direction of the Company’s business to the Oil and Gas Industry. As a result of the name change, the Company’s trading symbol was changed to “BLUG”.

On February 23, 2011, Petro Grande, LLC (“Petro Grande”) consummated a transaction with Blugrass whereby Petro Grande acquired a controlling interest in Blugrass.  This transaction effected a change of control and Blugrass’ management team was replaced with Petro Grande’s management team.  Upon the reverse merger recapitalization on February 23, 2011 the inception date of the Company changed to December 11, 2007, the date of the acquisition of the lease by Petro Grande, LLC.  As a result of the reverse merger recapitalization, Blugrass’ new management team has implemented a new business strategy (discussed in detail in the section on Management’s Discussion and Analysis below).

The Company is in the development stage. Its activities to date have been limited to capital formation, organization and development of its business plan.  

The Company has not earned  revenues from planned operations.  Accordingly, the Company’s activities have been accounted for as those of a “Development Stage Company”.  Among the disclosures required are that the Company’s financial statements of operations, shareholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows disclose activity since the date of the Company’s inception.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Change in Fiscal Year – On March 10, 2011 the Board of Directors approved the change of the Company’s fiscal year from a June 30 fiscal year end to a December 31 calendar year end.  The Company filed a transition report on Form 10-KT for the six-month transition period ended December 31, 2010.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting periods.  Key estimates in the accompanying financial statements include, among others, revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts, valuation of long-lived assets, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances.

Cash Equivalents – The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents.

Other Receivable – There was an other receivable totaling $39,811 and $0 as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.  The balance of other receivable as of September 30, 2011 consisted of amounts representing business related expenses owed to the Company.

Oil and Gas Properties – We follow the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas producing activities. Unsuccessful exploration drilling costs are expensed and can have a significant effect on reported operating results. Successful exploration drilling costs and all development costs are capitalized and systematically charged to expense using the units of production method based on proved developed oil and gas reserves as estimated by our engineers and reviewed by independent engineers. Costs incurred for exploratory wells that find reserves that cannot yet be classified as proved are capitalized if (a) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a producing well and (b) there is sufficient progress being made in assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project. Proven property leasehold costs are amortized to expense using the units of production method based on total proved reserves. Properties are assessed for impairment as circumstances warrant and impairments to value are charged to expense. The successful efforts method inherently relies upon the estimation of proved reserves, which includes proved developed and proved undeveloped volumes.
 
Proved reserves are defined by the SEC as those volumes of crude oil, condensate, natural gas liquids and natural gas that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty are recoverable in future years 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 engineers are knowledgeable of and follow the guidelines for reserves established by the SEC, including the rule revisions designed to modernize the oil and gas company reserves reporting requirements, the estimation of reserves requires engineers to make a significant number of assumptions based on professional judgment. Reserve estimates are updated periodically 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.  It is difficult to predict what reserve revisions may be required in future periods.

Depletion rates are determined based on reserve quantity estimates and the capitalized costs of producing properties. As the estimated reserves are adjusted, the depletion expense for a property will change, assuming no change in production volumes or capitalized costs. While total depletion expense for the life of a property is limited to the property’s total cost, proved reserve revisions result in a change in timing when depletion expense is recognized. Downward revisions of proved reserves result in an acceleration of depletion expense, while upward revisions tend to lower the rate of depletion expense recognition.   Estimated reserves are used as the basis for calculating the expected future cash flows from a property, which are used to determine whether that property may be impaired. Reserves are also used to estimate the supplemental disclosure of the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows relating to oil and gas producing activities and reserve quantities. Changes in the estimated reserves are considered a change in estimate for accounting purposes and are reflected on a prospective basis.

Income Taxes – The Company estimates its current tax position together with its future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as depreciation and other reserves for tax and accounting purposes. These temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Management must then assess the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income, prior year carryback, or future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences. To the extent management believes that recovery is unlikely, management establishes a valuation allowance against these deferred tax assets. Significant judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, its deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against its deferred tax assets.  At September  30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty these assets will be used in the future.

Reverse Merger

On February 23, 2011, the Company was acquired by Petro Grande, which contributed a significant oil and gas working interest lease covering acreage located in Crockett County, Texas from Petro Grande as consideration in exchange for 52,294,336 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock plus a promissory note in the amount of $3.5 million. On the closing date of the PG Transaction, a change in control of the Company occurred and the senior management and directors of Blugrass resigned and were replaced by Petro Grande’s management team. Although Blugrass is the surviving legal entity; the contributed Petro Grande working interest lease remained the financial reporting entity and the merger was treated as a reverse recapitalization as, prior to the PG transaction, Blugrass was a public holding company with limited assets or operations and, upon completion of the PG transaction, Petro Grande shareholders emerged with a controlling 77% interest in the merged Company.

The PG Transaction was initially valued by Petro Grande management at approximately $8.7 million and, as such, the Company recorded an increase to the value of undeveloped leasehold costs of Blugrass of approximately $6.7 million.  After reviewing the PG Transaction, the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of Corporate Finance recommended that the consideration provided in the transaction should be valued at its historical cost as is consistent with a reverse recapitalization.  As a result, management has reduced the amount recorded as “Oil and gas properties – undeveloped” and additional paid in capital as of September 30, 2011 balance sheet, to $1,984,383.

The oil and gas lease contributed as consideration as part of the PG Transaction (the Soto Lease defined below) includes an option to participate as a working interest partner in drilling programs sponsored on an additional 9,850 acres (currently held by Petro Grande) located in close proximity to the oil and gas lease properties contributed.  This acreage also benefits from 3D seismic imaging.

Investment in Quad Energy

On February 23, 2011, upon the reverse merger recapitalization the Company acquired an asset purchase agreement with Quad Energy Corp. (“Quad Energy”) for the sale of 100% of the Company’s rights, title and interest to certain properties located in and around the Cave Pool Unit (Marks and Garner Productions) in Eddy County, New Mexico (the “Eddy County Properties”). The Eddy County Properties consist of leasehold interests in approximately 2,800 acres and all existing equipment used to produce oil and natural gas located on the Eddy County Properties. As consideration for the transaction the Company was to receive 5,000,000 shares of Quad Energy’s common stock, valued at $.10 per share. The transaction closed on January 25, 2011 pre-recapitalization, and the Company recorded an investment in Quad Energy in the amount of $500,000. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the value of the investment in Quad Energy had decreased and the Company recorded a loss on the statement of operations of $485,000 as the Company considers the loss other than temporary.

Oil & Gas Properties

On February 23, 2011, in conjunction with the PG Transaction, the Company acquired a 4,808 acre undeveloped lease located in the Permian Basin in Crockett County, Texas (the “Soto Lease”).   Acquisition of the Soto Lease, representing an 87.5% working interest in the underlying acreage, includes full access to Petro Grande’s complete three-dimensional (3D) seismic imaging of the land under lease.  The lease expiration date is July 12, 2013 with a 2011 lease obligation to drill one Strawn formation well and one Ellenburger formation well by December 31, 2011.  The Company’s plans to drill by December 31, 2011, are contingent upon management raising additional funding to finance drilling costs.  This lease has a continuous drilling clause of 120 days provided the drilling obligations previously described are satisfied.
 
Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company reported a net loss of $1,678,071 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, and an accumulated deficit during the development stage of $1,678,071 as of September 30, 2011.  At September 30, 2011, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,409,682 and the Company had no revenues from its activities during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern may be dependent on the success of management’s plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Notes Payable

In conjunction with the PG Transaction, the Company issued a note payable in the amount of $3.5 million (the “PG Note Payable”) on February 23, 2011.  The PG Note Payable accrues interest at a rate of 6.5% per annum beginning on February 23, 2011 with accrued interest payable in semi-annual installments beginning on October 1, 2011.  Past due principal and accrued interest accrue interest at a rate of 10% per annum.  The balance of the PG Note Payable along with any accrued and unpaid interest is due on February 22, 2013.  The PG Note Payable is secured by a first priority interest in the Company’s Soto Lease.

On May 12, 2011 the Company issued an unsecured note payable in the amount of $20,000 (the “Ladner Note”).  The Ladner Note matured on August 31, 2011, and is considered to be in default.  The note includes a “bonus payment” of $2,500 due at maturity.  The “bonus payment” is equivalent to interest which accrues at an annual rate of 12.5%.

Convertible Promissory Notes

As of September 30, 2011, the Company had outstanding $361,666 of unsecured convertible commercial promissory notes (the “Convertible Promissory Notes”).

The Company determined that the conversion features in the April, May, July, and August 2011 Convertible Promissory Notes (collectively, the “Convertible Promissory Notes”) should be accounted for as a convertible note derivative liability. The conversion features are treated as a derivative and recorded at their fair value. Accordingly, the Company recorded a derivative liability and debt discount for each of the notes in the amount of $141,742. During the nine months ended September 30, 2011 a charge to debt discount in the amount of $66,347 was expensed through interest expense. At September 30, 2011 the debt discount was $75,395. The Company will continue to reevaluate the derivative liability in future reporting periods and adjust the derivative liability as necessary. This derivative will continue to be marked to market in accordance with FASB ASC 815.

As of September 30, 2011, Convertible Promissory Notes totaling $166,666 were in payment default and, accordingly, accrued interest at a rate of 18% per annum.  For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2011, the Company accrued interest related to the Convertible Promissory Notes totaling $87,169.

Shareholders’ Equity (Deficit)

On February 23, 2011, in conjunction with the PG Transaction, the Company issued to Petro Grande 52,294,336 shares of its restricted common stock, or approximately 77% of its restricted common stock outstanding at that time.  Upon closing of the PG Transaction, Petro Grande held a controlling interest in the Company. These shares are included in the recapitalization line on the Statement of Shareholders’ Equity (Deficit).

On February 23, 2011, the Company awarded options to purchase 2,400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Option Grants”).  The Option Grants include options to purchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to each of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, plus an option to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to an advisor.  Each of the Option Grants provides the option holder the right to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share, subject to vesting requirements.  Options to purchase 1,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock vest on February 23, 2012.  Beginning on February 23, 2012, options to purchase the remaining 1,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock vest pro rata on a monthly basis over the succeeding twelve months; accordingly, the Option Grants will vest in full on February 23, 2013.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 the Company recorded stock related compensation expense of $190,165 in connection with the Option Grants.

On March 18, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a 5-to-1 reduction in the number of shares of the Company’s authorized common stock, and a corresponding 5-to-1 decrease in the number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock (reverse split).  The reverse split was effective May 17, 2011.

As a result of the reverse split, the number of authorized shares of the Company’s common stock has been reduced, from 500,000,000 shares to 100,000,000 shares.  Also as a result of the reverse split, each five shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding on the Effective Date represented one share of the Company’s common stock. Fractional shares existing as a result of the reverse split were rounded up to the nearest whole share.

On April 13, 2011, the Company issued an aggregate of 64,000 shares of its common stock to a provider of professional services to the Company, in lieu of the payment of cash for such services, at $.15 per share.  The value of the transaction was $9,600.

On June 29, 2011, the Company issued 840,000 shares of common stock and 840,000 warrants.  As consideration the Company received net cash proceeds of $50,400.  The fair value of the 840,000 warrants at the date of issuance was $.04 per warrant.   During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the Company issued 180,000 shares of restricted common stock in lieu of cash payment for services to a related party.

Business and Plan of Operations

General

Blugrass Energy Inc. is a publicly held Nevada corporation listed on the OTC under the symbol BLUG.PK.   The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 19, 2006 as Coastal Media Inc.  On September 11, 2008, the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to Blugrass Energy Inc. Upon the reverse merger recapitalization on February 23, 2011, the new inception date is December 11. 2007.

Business Strategy

Our goal is to build shareholder value through consistent growth in reserves and production on a cost-efficient basis.  In addition, the Company is looking for merger opportunities.

Strategic initiatives for the Company are defined and driven by a carefully selected management team and business partners that have long, proven records of successes in their specialized disciplines.  We are of the belief that the extensive experience and past successes of the professionals on our team are the best indicators of future success.  This strategy requires the following principal elements.

·   
Commitment to Advanced Seismic Technology.  The Company committed to a 3D seismic data acquisition program, plus advanced processing of the 3D seismic data, as 3D is the most sophisticated technology available for analyzing the formations, faults, integrating land culture, etc.  The distinct advantage of 3D seismic surveys over 2D surveys is that 3D provides a continuity of subsurface rocks and fluids (including hydrocarbons), the ability to extract new information from data, and a common focus for integration of reservoir data from all sources. This technology -- both the 3D data and the processing of that data -- significantly reduces risk in the drilling program.  This heavy front-end commitment provides current state-of-the-art technology that, in turn, contributes significantly to lowering project risk and identifying potential targets with a much higher degree of accuracy.
 
12

 
·   
Results of the 3D Analysis.  The Company’s 3D analysis was performed by our outsourced Geoscientist and trusted member of our advisory team, whose experience spans more than 35 years. He has a high level of expertise with the geology of the Permian and Val Verde Basins, where the Company holds a mineral rights lease, and his expertise extends to the Strawn and Ellenburger Formations which are located beneath the Company’s leased acreage.  The results of his analysis were used to generate structural maps and seismic attributes for the Strawn and Ellenburger reservoirs, and comparable structural maps for the shallower Canyon Sands formation also located beneath the Company’s leased acreage. Premised upon the 3D seismic interpretations, the Company believes that there is significant natural gas in its current acreage position.

·   
Acreage Acquisition.  Blugrass holds a lease covering 4,808 acres in Crockett County, located in West Texas, for the purpose of drilling and developing. The Company is required to drill an Ellenburger formation natural gas well and a Strawn formation natural gas well, each on the Company’s Soto Lease acreage in Crockett County, Texas by December 31, 2011. The Company is in discussion with the lessor to extend the lease obligations.
  
·   
Drilling Targets and HBP Acreage.  Drilling targets are carefully evaluated by the Blugrass management and advisory team.  A number of considerations are factored into each decision and incorporated into the overall drilling plan. These include the seismic results and analysis of possible well locations, the potential reserves at a specific target, the ease or difficulty of building on specific terrain and the associated cost of the location construction (incorporated into the total drilling expenditures), the overall risk associated with a specific target based on geology and depth of the well, and other known factors that may impact success in the immediate geographic area.  Since successful commercial wells hold production acreage, known as HBP (Held by Production) acreage for long-term production for working and royalty interest owners, the overall drilling plan includes the careful selection of drilling locations to maximize HBP acreage within the contracted lease terms.  The drilling plan also incorporates the state’s spacing and other requirements while trying to maximize the desired HBP acreage.
 
The principal target formations in the Permian and Val Verde Basins are the Strawn formation at approximately 12,500 feet total depth, and the Ellenburger formation at approximately 14,000 feet total depth.  These formations are known to contain natural gas in relatively large quantities, based on previous wells drilled either in adjacent properties or in close proximity to the Company’s acreage position.

Premised upon the 3D seismic interpretations, the Company has also identified numerous drilling targets in the Canyon Sands formation at a shallower depth of approximately 6,500 feet.  Regionally, the Company’s land position is on trend with numerous giant, multipay gas fields which include the Gomez Field, the Brown Bassett, the JM Field, and others.
 

·   
Advanced Drilling Technology.  Blugrass has selected air drilling technology that uses an air hammer for drilling. This technology has the advantage of being more economical, as well as time-effective. Air hammers drill straight holes because their drilling power comes from high frequency percussion rather than from high rotation and pulldown, and because the air hammer piston impacts directly on the bit rather than through a drill string, which can bend over long hole depths. This technology minimizes hole deviations and doglegs, and the speed of the process, coupled with open hole completions, results in significant savings in total drilling costs.
 
13

 
·   
Continuous Monitoring, Cost Controls, and Auditing.  Since control activities are a vital part of making business processes work effectively, Blugrass uses the extensive internal audit and contract compliance experience of its Financial Advisor in reviewing bid processes, contract compliance with operators, contractors, and vendors including expenditure and revenue audits and reviewing gas measurement controls and contract terms that eventually determine the gas volumes that go into gas settlement statements.

Results of Operations

For the Nine months Ended September 30, 2011 compared to the Nine months Ended September 30, 2010

We are still in our development stage and have no revenues to date.  

We incurred operating expenses of $965,251 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  There were no expenses incurred for the same nine months ended post-recapitalization (described in Acquisitions and Dispositions section). The operating expenses were primarily related to general and administrative expenses of $497,399, and professional fees of $291,722. In addition, the Company recorded land development costs of $176,130, which related to a reserve booked to the Soto Lease related to a lien on that property (described in Oil & Gas Properties section) during the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recognized a net loss of $1,678,071.

 
For the Three months Ended September 30, 2011 compared to the Three months Ended September 30, 2010

We incurred operating expenses of $232,135 for the three-months ended September 30, 2011. There were no expenses incurred for the same three months ended post-recapitalization 2010 (described in Reverse Merger Note in the financial statement section).  The operating expenses were primarily related to general and administrative expenses of $192,192. In addition, the Company incurred $39,943 in professional fees. There were no expenses incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2010 pre-acquisition as noted in acquisitions and dispositions above.  During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we recognized a net loss of $353,140.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At September 30, 2011, we had total assets of $2,039,194, consisting primarily of $1,984,383 in undeveloped leases (the Soto Lease) acquired in conjunction with the PG Transaction as well as an investment in Quad Energy valued at $15,000. At September 30, 2011, we had total current liabilities of $1,449,493, consisting of accounts payable and accrued liabilities totaling $775,935, accrued interest totaling $225,545 and $286,271 of convertible promissory notes outstanding.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we used $265,400 in operations.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we used $0 in operations.
  
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we received $265,400 from our financing activities. We had no cash inflows during the nine months ended September 30, 2010. 

We have only one class of common stock.  We have no material commitments for capital expenditures within the next year, however, if drilling and exploration operations are commenced, substantial capital will be needed to pay for participation, investigation, exploration, acquisition and working capital.

Our auditors have expressed their doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern unless we are able to generate profitable operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
