Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2012

(Expressed in US Dollars)

(Unaudited)

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

These unaudited interim financial statements as of and for the three months ended June 30, 2012 reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations for the periods presented, in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s fiscal year end March 31, 2012 report. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read, or have access to, the audited financial statements for the preceding period, and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. The results of operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending March 31, 2013.

 

Organization and Description of Business

 

Grid Petroleum Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada with the name Sunberta Resources Inc. on November 15, 2006. The Company was, until March 31, 2009, an exploration stage company which had as its principal business the acquisition and exploration of mineral claims.

 

On November 16, 2006 the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding shares of Sunberta Resources Inc. (“Sunberta Alberta”), an inactive corporation incorporated in the province of Alberta, Canada on September 19, 2006. Sunberta Alberta was registered as an extraprovincial company in British Columbia, Canada on November 15, 2006. The consideration for the acquisition of Sunberta Alberta was 2,000 shares (on a post-split basis) of the Company.

 

In January, 2007 Sunberta Alberta acquired seven placer claim tenures on southern Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. During the year ended March 31, 2009, the Company abandoned three of the placer claim tenures and decided to abandon the remaining four properties. Between May 31, 2009 and June 14, 2009, the remaining four placer claim tenures expired.  The carrying cost of the properties was written off and the operations associated with the properties were treated in the financial statements as discontinued operations in the year ended March 31, 2009. The Company entered the development stage on March 31, 2009 to seek other opportunities. See also note 2.

 

On November 18, 2009 the Company changed its name to Grid Petroleum Corp.

 

The Company’s activities to December 31, 2009 were carried on in Alberta and British Columbia, Canada. In February, 2010 operations were carried on in England. In mid-2010 the Company began to focus on its mineral properties in the United States, and activities of the Company thenceforth were controlled from the United States.

On March 17, 2010, the Company acquired oil and gas leases in Wyoming for consideration of $300,000.00 cash. See also note 4. The Company intends to explore for oil and gas on these properties. The Company entered an exploration stage on March 31, 2010.

 

F-4

On January 20, 2011, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with a Nevada corporation, Joaquin Basin Resources Inc.,( “Seller”), and its stockholders,( “Selling Shareholders”). Pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to the Selling Shareholders (i) 62,000,000 shares of Company common stock and (ii) 2,076,324 shares of convertible preferred stock, in exchange for the transfer and delivery to the Company by the Selling Shareholders of the 62,000,000 shares of common stock issued by the Seller, which were all of the issued and outstanding securities of the Seller. As a result of the related transaction on February 1, 2011, the Seller became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The issue of preferred stock was delayed until January 21, 2012. None of the parties to the Agreement is a related person.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sunberta Alberta and Joaquin Basin Resources, Inc.  All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

  

Cash equivalents comprise certain highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased.  As at June 30, 2012, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

 

Mineral Properties and Exploration Expenses

 

Mineral properties purchased are capitalized and carried at cost.  Exploration and development costs are charged to operations as incurred until such time that proven or probable ore reserves are discovered.  From that time forward, the Company will capitalize all costs to the extent that future cash flow from reserves equals or exceeds the costs deferred.  The deferred costs will be amortized using the unit-of-production method when a property reaches commercial production. At June 30, 2012, the Company is no longer in the mineral exploration business.

 

Oil and Gas Properties and Exploration Expenses

 

Oil and gas property acquisition costs are capitalized and carried at cost. Exploration and development costs are accounted for on the successful-efforts method, whereby the costs related to successful projects are capitalized and all costs incurred as a result of unsuccessful projects are expensed when it is determined that the exploration efforts on that property are unsuccessful. At June 30, 2012, the Company has not incurred any exploration or development costs on its oil and gas properties.

 

Advertising Expenses

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company has not incurred any advertising costs in the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

Asset Retirement Obligations

 

The Company has adopted FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic (“ASC”) No. 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations which requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred.   ASC No. 410 requires a liability to be recorded for the present value of the estimated site restoration costs with corresponding increase to the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset.  The liability will be accreted and the asset will be depreciated over the life of the related assets.  Adjustments for changes resulting from the passage of time and changes to either the timing or amount of the original present value estimate underlying the obligation will be made. The Company has not incurred any asset retirement obligations as at June 30, 2012. 

F-5

Foreign Currency

 

The functional currency is the US Dollar. Transactions in foreign currencies other than the functional currency, if any, are re-measured into the functional currency at the rate in effect at the time of the transaction. Re-measurement gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations are included in income or loss from operations. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in the functional currency are translated into US Dollars at the rate in effect at the balance sheet date.  Revenue and expenses denominated in the functional currency are translated at the average exchange rate.  Other comprehensive income includes the foreign exchange gains and losses that arise from translating from the functional currency into US Dollars.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses

during the reporting period.  Management makes its best estimate of the ultimate outcome for these items based on historical trends and other information available when the financial statements are prepared. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Loss Per Share

 

Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, for the period presented. Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is based on the assumption that all dilative convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

 

As of June 30, 2012 the Company has potentially dilutive securities outstanding in convertible debt per Note 6. The Company has also issued warrants for the purchase of common stock related to a financing agreement. These securities if exercised would be anti-dilutive, since the Company is in a loss position. They have therefore not been included in the calculation of weighted average number of shares outstanding.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of cash, demand loan, accounts payable and accrued liabilities at June 30, 2012 reflected in these financial statements approximates their fair value due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.

 

Comprehensive Income

 

The Company has adopted ASC No. 220, Comprehensive Income.  Comprehensive income includes net income and all changes in equity during a period that arises from non-owner sources, such as foreign currency items and unrealized gains and losses on certain investments in equity securities.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company utilizes FASB ACS 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is “more likely-than-not” that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company generated a deferred tax credit through net operating loss carry-forward. A valuation allowance of 100% has been established.

F-6

Interest and penalties on tax deficiencies recognized in accordance with ACS accounting standards are classified as income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740-10-50-19.

 

Exploration Stage

 

The Company entered the exploration stage upon its inception. The Company exited the exploration stage and entered the development stage on March 31, 2009 when the Company’s mineral claims tenures in British Columbia were abandoned and the Company started seeking new businesses. The Company exited the development stage and entered a new exploration stage on March 31, 2010 after the Company had acquired oil and gas properties in Wyoming and started planning to explore the properties.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company periodically analyzes its long-lived assets for potential impairment, assessing the appropriateness of lives and recoverability of unamortized balances through measurement of undiscounted operation cash flows in accordance with ASC No. 144, Property, Plant and Equipment.  If impairment is deemed to exist, the asset will be written down to its fair value.  Fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis.  As at June 30, 2012, the Company does not believe any adjustment for impairment is required.

 

The Company will periodically analyze exploration efforts, once exploration on its oil and gas properties has commenced, to determine which projects have been unsuccessful in establishing proved reserves. The costs of unsuccessful projects will be expensed.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

On June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, "Presentation of Comprehensive Income." This update was amended in December 2011 by ASU No. 2011-12, "Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05." This update defers only those changes in update 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments. All other requirements in update 2011-05 are not affected by this update, including the requirement to report comprehensive income either in a single continuous financial statement or in two separate but consecutive financial statements. ASU No. 2011-05 and 2011-12 are effective for fiscal years (including interim periods) beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a significant impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, "Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities." The amendments in this update require enhanced disclosures around financial instruments and derivative instruments that are either (1) offset in accordance with either ASC 210-20-45 or ASC 815-10-45 or (2) subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement, irrespective of whether they are offset in accordance with either ASC 210-20-45 or ASC 815-10-45. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company does not expect this guidance to have any impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

 

The Company has reviewed issued accounting pronouncements and plans to adopt those that are applicable to it. The Company does not expect the adoption of any other pronouncements to have an impact on its results of operations or financial position.

 

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION – GOING CONCERN

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

 

F-7

The Company has experienced losses since its inception:

 

a.$173,275 in the pre-development stage to March 31, 2009
b.$123,849 in the development stage in the year ended March 31, 2010
c.$834,271 in the exploration stage in the year ended March 31, 2011
d.$621,640 in the exploration stage in the year ended March 31, 2012
e.$199,756 in the exploration stage in the three months ended June 30, 2012

 

Total losses: $1,952,791

 

The Company also has limited business operations, which raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The ability of the Company to meet its commitments as they become payable, including the completion of acquisitions, exploration and development of oil and gas properties and projects, is dependent on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing or achieving a profitable level of operations.  There are no assurances the Company will be successful in achieving these goals.

 

The Company does not have sufficient cash to fund its desired exploration for the next twelve months. The Company has arranged financing and intends to draw upon this financing arrangement to fund administration and exploration. This financing may be insufficient to fund expenditures or other cash requirements required to find, develop and exploit oil and gas reserves to the point of profitable operations. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in finding oil and gas reserves. The Company plans to seek additional financing if necessary in a private or public equity offering to secure future funding for operations. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in raising additional funding. If the Company is not able to secure additional funding, the implementation of the Company’s business plan will be impaired. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms or at all.

 

These financial statements do not give effect to adjustments to the amounts and classifications to assets and liabilities that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

  

3. FIXED ASSETS

 

Fixed assets consist of the following:

 

   June 30, 2012  March 31, 2012
           
Computer equipment  $758   $758 
Less: Accumulated depreciation   758    709 
           
   $0   $49 

 

4. OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES

 

The Company has oil and gas properties in Wyoming and California.

 

Wyoming.

The 100% working interest in the four separate oil and gas leases no longer exists; company only have a 100% working interest in two located near the Jonah Field region, which encompasses an area of premium natural gas reserves within the Greater Green River Basin in the Rocky Mountains area of Wyoming. The Green River Basin area contains approximately 26 TCF (Trillion Cubic Feet) of natural gas, with the Jonah Field estimated to contain 7 to 10 TCF according to the Wyoming State Geological Survey. The Jonah Field currently produces from in excess of 500 wells. This well-defined region has a high success rate for drilling and completion.

 

F-8


Referred to the four leases in this region as the SE Jonah Prospect. These four leases were issued by the United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management: #WYW158664 and #WYW158665 dated August 1, 2004, #WYW159734; and #159737 dated February 1, 2004 and we no longer have #WYW159734 and #159737. The leases covered 3,744.57 acres in the Jonah Prospect, South of the Jonah Field in the Greater Green River Basin, Wyoming. The two leases are subject to a 12.5% royalty retained by the lessor and a 5% overriding royalty retained by the seller. Company acquired the leases on March 17, 2010 for $300,000 cash from a related party and have conducted no exploration work on the properties.

 

The SE Jonah Prospect is located six miles southeast of the Jonah Field. The breakdown of the acreage and royalties that are owed to various parties is set forth in the table below. In June of 2012 we learned that SunCal Energy Inc. did not reinstate two leases and additionally SunCal Energy Inc. had not properly completed and submitted the assignment documentation nor paid the lease payments to the Bureau of Land Management so leases #WYW158664 and 158665 have officially been terminated and we are in the process of submitting the documentation and lease payments for #WYW158664 and 158665 so we can contain these leases.

 

California.

 

On January 20, 2011 the Company purchased, through its subsidiary Joaquin Basin Resources Inc., a 50% working interest (37% net revenue interest) in a mineral lease on 4,000 acres in Kings and Fresno counties in California. The lease was initially recorded at the cost of issuing 62,000,000 common shares. The agreement also required an issue of 2,076,334 preferred shares.

 

On November 21, 2011 a portion of the interest in the lease was swapped for a future “carry’ of exploration costs and administration of the lease. Grid’s 50% working interest (37.5% net revenue interest) was reduced to 30% and 14% respectively. The co-lessee, Xploration Inc., is the obligor under the agreement. Future exploration costs include the operating “carry” costs of the lease and drilling costs of the first well, named “First Farmin Well”. The exploration costs were valued and recorded based on the percentage reduction in net revenue interest: $4,825,334. This was a reduction in the value of the Joaquin Basin property.

 

On January 20, 2011, 2,076,000 shares of convertible preferred stock were issued in concluding the Joaquin Basin purchase agreement. The cost of the issue, $4,152,000, was based on the value of preferred stock as if converted to common stock. $4,152,000 was added to the cost of the Joaquin property, including liabilities assumed in the November 21, 2011 agreement with Xploration Inc. The total value, $7,026,666, was reflected in a volumetric analysis.

 

Volumetric calculations of the 30% lease (14% net revenue) were conducted by a geologist and valuation determined using a “P10” factor, i.e. a 10% recovery rate, at a value for oil of $100 per barrel, which equated to net revenue of approximately $20,000,000, ($15,800,000 after landowner’s share). The P factor was further reduced by management by approximately 50%, based on company estimates of recoverability, resulting in an approximate value of $7,700,000.

 

    Contribution Value:
  Proved  Unproved  Total 
Shallow Oil Field   0    0    0 
Unconventional Acreage  $7,026,666   $85,334   $7,112,000 

 

Impairment of the properties from their recorded acquisition values was considered at June 30, 2012. Management considered that there were no changes in circumstances that would warrant impairment from the estimated values indicated by geological reports.

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.

 

Company Overview

 

We are focused on the development, exploration and production of oil and gas in North America. Our primary focus is on oil and gas properties with proven undeveloped reserves that are economically attractive but are underserved by major independent oil and gas companies.

 

SE Jonah Prospect

 

We have a 100% working interest in the two separate oil and gas leases located near the Jonah Field region, which encompasses an area of premium natural gas reserves within the Greater Green River Basin in the Rocky Mountains area of Wyoming.

 

Our Chief Geological and Geophysicist Advisor, Robert Murphy, completed an analysis of the report devising a work program to encompass the necessary additional study. Concluding that the SE Jonah acreage can be considered as exploration rather than development/production acreage, the work program consists of eleven elements divided into two phases. The first phase comprises six elements requiring data accumulation and study. The completion of phase one will provide information as to the prospects of finding producible gas and, if so, the predicted range of gas quantity in place. The second phase being contingent on positive results from the first phase includes well test interpretation and investigating development drilling scenarios and production forecasting.

 

We have conducted no exploration work on the properties. We are, however, in discussion with consulting groups to implement the first phase of the devised work program.

 

Joaquin Basin Resources, Inc.

 

We also have a 20% working interest (14% net revenue interest) to explore and develop 4,000 leased acres covering extensions of the Coalinga California oil and gas field in California labeled as the Kreyenhagen Trend acreage. We have been informed by the operator that a request has been submitted to the State of California for an environmental study to determine the evidence of the blunt nose lizard. This study must be conducted twice, once in the fall and once in the spring. We are also informed by the operator that 3 drill sites have been submitted in the permitting process with the State.

Garcia #3 Well

 

On May 23, 2012, we acquired a ten percent working interest, seven point five percent net revenue interest, from a third party interest holder of the Garcia #3 well (10.0 % WI, 7.5% NRI). For our interest, we paid $300,000 in convertible preferred shares with a conversion rate of .01 per share.

 

We are subject to the terms and conditions of the operating agreement established by the operator for the Garcia#3 well, Kidd Production Inc, the property developer, Progas Energy Services and the third party vendor we acquired our 10% interest from. We have been repeatedly misinformed by Kidd Production and Progas about the start date for the drilling of the Garcia #3, which is to commence when a drill rig is available and when the operator has determined to move forward with the project. When ready, Garcia #3 will be drilled to approximately 4,200 feet in depth and test the Frio Sands to identify commercial production in the prospect.

 

Due to our minority interest in the Garcia#3 well, we are reviewing operational alternatives to resolve our inability to control the development of this well and the field in general for any future drilling activities.

 

Results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and for the period from Inception (March 31, 2009) to June 30, 2012

 

We are in the exploration stage. We have not earned any revenues since our inception. We will not be able to earn revenue unless we are able to locate oil and gas potential on our leases and exploit any reserves we may find. There is no assurance that we will be able to accomplish our business plan to produce oil and gas from our leases.

 

We incurred operating expenses in the amount of $189,756 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared with operating expenses of $61,020 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in consulting fees of $127,641 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared with professional fees of only $22,900 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase was also related to $40,000 in exploration expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared with $0 in exploration expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

 

We incurred operations expenses of $1,703,581 for the period from inception (March 31, 2009) to June 30, 2012.

 

We incurred a net loss in the amount of $199,756 for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared with $61,243 for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

 

We had other expenses of $10,000 related to a loan premium for the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared with $223 for the same period ended 2011.

 

We incurred a net loss in the amount of $1,828,942 for the period from commencement of the exploration stage on March 31, 2009 to June 30, 2012.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We had total current assets in the amount of $14,580 consisting solely of cash. We had current liabilities of $668,946 as of June 30, 2012. We had a working capital deficit of $654,366 as of June 30, 2012.

 

We used net cash of $179,707 in operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2012. Our net loss of $199,756 was the main reason for our negative operating cash flow.

 

We received $168,871 in cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as a result of $83,730 in proceeds from notes payable and $35,000 in proceeds from stockholders’ loans.

 

On March 12, 2012, an outstanding note for $40,000 was swapped with an investor for the note plus $21,490.90, for a total of $61,490.90.

In May of 2012, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor for the sale of a Convertible Promissory Note in the aggregate principal amount of $57,500. The proceeds of the note are to be used for general working capital purposes. The note bears interest at 8% per annum and matures February 4, 2013. The note is convertible into shares of common stock beginning 180 days from the date of the note at a conversion price of 61% of the average of the lowest three trading prices our common stock during the ten trading days of the OTCBB preceding the conversion date. The number of shares issuable upon conversion is proportionately adjusted to reflect any stock dividend, split or similar event.

 

In June of 2012, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor for the sale of a Convertible Promissory Note in the aggregate principal amount of $57,500. The proceeds of the note are to be used for general working capital purposes. The note bears interest at 8% per annum and matures December 15, 2012..

 

We anticipate our cash requirements to increase over the course of this year as we will be more active and will incur costs for management and exploration of our oil and gas properties.

 

We anticipate that we will be dependent, for the immediate future, upon additional investment capital to fund operating expenses. We estimate that we will require additional financing to operate and carry out planned exploration activities over the next twelve months.

 

In addition to the issues set out above regarding our ability to raise capital, global economies are currently undergoing a period of economic uncertainty related to the tightening of credit markets worldwide. This has resulted in numerous adverse effects, including unprecedented volatility in financial markets and stock prices, slower economic activity, decreased consumer confidence and commodity prices, reduced corporate profits and capital spending, increased unemployment, liquidity concerns and volatile but generally declining energy prices. We anticipate that the current economic conditions and the credit shortage will adversely impact our ability to raise financing.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of June 30, 2012, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has limited business operations, which raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The ability of the Company to meet its commitments as they become payable, including the completion of acquisitions, exploration and development of oil and gas properties and projects, is dependent on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing or achieving a profitable level of operations.  There are no assurances the Company will be successful in achieving these goals.

 

The Company does not have sufficient cash to fund its desired exploration for the next twelve months. The Company has arranged financing as described in note 7 of the Notes to the Financial Statements and intends to draw upon this financing arrangement to fund administration and exploration. This financing may be insufficient to fund expenditures or other cash requirements required to find, develop and exploit oil and gas reserves to the point of profitable operations. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in finding oil and gas reserves. The Company plans to seek additional financing if necessary in a private or public equity offering to secure future funding for operations. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in raising additional funding. If the Company is not able to secure additional funding, the implementation of the Company’s business plan will be impaired. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to the Company on acceptable terms or at all.

 

The financial statements do not give effect to adjustments to the amounts and classifications to assets and liabilities that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2012. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, James Powell. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has identified the following material weaknesses which have caused management to conclude that, as of June 30, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.

 

Remediation Plan to Address the Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our company plans to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal controls over financial reporting. During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending March 31, 2013: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
