MMEX RESOURCES CORPORATION

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Three Months Ended July 31, 2019 (Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – BACKGROUND, ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

MMEX Resources Corporation (the “Company” or “MMEX”) is a company engaged in the exploration, extraction, refining and distribution of oil, gas, petroleum products and electric power. We plan to focus on the acquisition, development and financing of oil, gas, refining and electric power projects in Texas, Peru, and other countries in Latin America using the expertise of our principals to identify, finance and acquire these projects. The most significant focus of our current business plan is to build crude oil refining facilities in the Permian Basin in West Texas.

 

MMEX was formed as a Nevada corporation in 2005. The current management team led an acquisition of the Company (then named Management Energy, Inc.) through a reverse merger completed on September 23, 2010 and changed the Company’s name to MMEX Mining Corporation on February 11, 2011 and to MMEX Resources Corporation on April 6, 2016

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Our significant accounting policies are described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2019 filed with the SEC on July 26, 2019.

 

Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its aforementioned subsidiaries and entities under common ownership. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The ownership interests in subsidiaries that are held by owners other than the Company are recorded as non-controlling interest and reported in our consolidated balance sheets within stockholders’ deficit. Losses attributed to the non-controlling interest and to the Company are reported separately in our consolidated statements of operations.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net recoverable amount, and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the related asset as follows:

 

Office furniture and equipment

10 years

Computer equipment and software

5 years

Refinery land improvements

15 years

Refinery land easements

10 years

 

The refinery land easements owned by the Company have a legal life of 10 years

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments will be capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation will be removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, will be reflected in operations.

 

The Company will assess the recoverability of property and equipment by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of these assets over their remaining life can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of equipment impairment, if any, will be measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which such impairment is determined by management.

 

Derivative liabilities

 

In a series of subscription agreements, the Company issued warrants in prior years that contain certain anti-dilution provisions that have been identified as derivatives. In addition, the Company identified the conversion feature of certain convertible notes payable and convertible preferred stock as derivatives. As of July 31, 2019, the number of warrants or common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate; therefore, the Company concluded that the equity environment is tainted and all additional warrants, stock options and convertible debt are included in the value of the derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using multinomial lattice models that value the derivative liabilities based on a probability weighted cash flow model using projections of the various potential outcomes. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility and management’s estimates of various potential equity financing transactions. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

Fair value of financial instruments

 

Under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, the FASB establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, prepaid expense and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable reported on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short-term nature of the instruments.

 

An entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value using a hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy prioritized the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Our derivative liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and estimated as follows:

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective May 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as amended, using the modified retrospective method, which requires the cumulative effect of adoption to be recognized as an adjustment to opening retained earnings in the period of adoption. To date, the Company has no operating revenues; therefore, there was no cumulative effect of adopting the new standard and no impact on our financial statements. The new standard provides a single comprehensive model to be used in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, ASC 606 includes provisions within a five-step model that includes identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.

 

Refinery start-up costs

 

Costs incurred prior to opening the Company’s proposed crude oil refinery in Pecos County, Texas, including acquisition of refinery rights, planning, design and permitting, are recorded as start-up costs and expensed as incurred.

 

Basic and diluted income (loss) per share

 

Basic net income or loss per share is calculated by dividing net income or loss (available to common stockholders) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income or loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as stock options, warrants, convertible debt and convertible preferred stock, were exercised or converted into common stock. For the three months ended July 31, 2019 and 2018, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share, therefore, basic net loss per share is the same as diluted net loss per share.

 

Stock-based compensation

 

Pursuant to FASB ASC 718, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the statement of operations based on their fair values. For the three months ended July 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded share-based compensation to employees of $0 and $1,070, respectively.

 

Issuance of shares for non-cash consideration

 

The Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and/or services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably determinable. The Company's accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of the standards issued by the FASB. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined as the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor's performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the prior-year period have been reclassified to conform with the current-year period presentation.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing transactions. This new pronouncement, as amended, is effective January 1, 2019 for calendar-year-end public companies, or May 1, 2019 for the Company. The Company currently does not have any material leases and the adoption of this new pronouncement did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, which the Company has adopted or will adopt, as applicable, the Company does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

 

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN

 

Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred continuous losses from operations, have an accumulated deficit of $39,801,065 and a total stockholders’ deficit of $3,294,773 at July 31, 2019, and have reported negative cash flows from operations since inception. In addition, we do not currently have the cash resources to meet our operating commitments for the next twelve months, and we expect to have ongoing requirements for capital investment to implement our business plan, including the construction of our proposed refinery project. Finally, our ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses and complications frequently encountered by entrance into established markets and the competitive environment in which we operate.

 

Since inception, our operations have primarily been funded through private debt and equity financing, and we expect to continue to seek additional funding through private or public equity and debt financing.

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs and/or to raise funds to finance ongoing operations and repay debt. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to raise additional debt or equity capital and/or that our cash generated by our operations will be adequate to meet our needs. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Accounts payable and accrued expenses to related parties, consisting primarily of consulting fees, totaled $60,855 and $41,036 as of July 31, 2019 and April 30, 2019, respectively.

 

During the three months ended July 31, 2019 and 2018, we incurred consulting fees and expense reimbursement related to the development of the refinery project to Maple Resources Corporation (“Maple Resources”), a related party controlled by our President and CEO, totaling $79,991 and $77,639, respectively. Amounts included in accounts payable due to Maple Resources totaled $7,322 and $9,403 as of July 31, 2019 and April 30, 2019, respectively. Effective July 1, 2019, we entered into a consulting agreement with Maple Resources that provides, in addition to the consulting fees and expense reimbursement, for the issuance to Maple Resources of shares of our Class A common stock each month with a value of $5,000, with the number of shares issued based on the average closing price of the stock during the prior month. No shares were issued to Maple Resources in July 2019 under the agreement.

 

Effective October 1, 2018, we entered into a consulting agreement with a related party to issue shares of our Class A common stock each month with a value of $2,500, with the number of shares issued based on the average closing price of the stock during the prior month. During the three months ended July 31, 2019, we issued a total of 620,534 Class A common shares valued at $5,009 to the related party, with the shares valued at the market price on the date of issuance, in payment of accrued consulting fees totaling $7,500. A gain on extinguishment of debt of $2,491 related to this compensation arrangement was recorded as a contribution to capital.

 

During the three months ended July 31, 2018, we issued to an employee 274,427 shares of our Class A common stock valued at $1,070 based on the market price on the date of issuance. The employee was terminated in January 2019.

 

As a condition for entering into an October 9, 2018 convertible debenture (see Note 8), the lender required affiliates of Jack W. Hanks and Bruce Lemons, our directors (the “Affiliates”), to pledge their shares of Class B Common Stock (constituting 100% of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock) to the lender to secure the repayment of the debenture by the Company. As consideration to the Affiliates for entering into the pledge agreement, the Company granted a ten-year option, effective as of December 11, 2018, to the Affiliates to purchase 1,000,000 of Class A Shares and 1,000,000 of the Class B Shares at $0.08 per share.

On July 28, 2017, the Company acquired 126 acres of land located near Fort Stockton, Texas for $67,088. This 126-acre parcel is the tract on which the Company intends to build a crude oil refinery (Note 6). Subsequently through July 31, 2019, the Company incurred a total of $480,942 additional costs to acquire certain easements related to the land parcel and make other improvements.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense totaled $8,587 and $571 for the three months ended July 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

NOTE 6 – REFINERY PROJECT

 

On March 4, 2017, we entered into an agreement with Maple Resources, a related party, to acquire all of Maple’s right, title and interest (the “Rights”) in plans to build a crude oil refinery in Pecos County, Texas (the “Refinery Transaction”). Pursuant to the Refinery Transaction, we agreed to acquire the Rights in exchange for the issuance of 15,000,000 Class B common shares. The 15,000,000 Class B common stock issued for the Rights were valued at $150,000 by an independent valuation firm, with the $150,000 expensed to refinery start-up costs.

 

Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Pecos Refining, we intend initially to build and commence operation of a 10,000 barrel-per-day distillation unit (the “Distillation Unit”) that will produce a non-transportation grade diesel primarily for sale in the local market for drilling mud and frac fluids, along with naphtha for use in petrochemical and refinery processing and residual fuel oil to be sold for use in other refineries or as marine fuel. Through a separate subsidiary, we intend to build and commence operation of a crude oil refinery (the “Large Refinery”) with up to 100,000 barrel-per-day capacity at a near-by location in West Texas (collectively with the Distillation Unit, the “Refinery Project”). The Refinery Project will be built on additional acres located 20 miles northeast of Fort Stockton, Texas. 

 

On July 28, 2017, we acquired the 126-acre parcel of the land, which is the site for our planned Distillation Unit (Note 5), at a purchase price of $550 per acre, or $67,088. We continue to negotiate with the seller of property to acquire an additional 381-acre parcel, which is the site for the planned Large Refinery, at a price of $550 per acre, or approximately $210,000. We will be required to obtain additional financing to complete this purchase.

 

On July 31, 2017, we filed an application with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (“TCEQ”) to obtain an air quality permit and obtained permit approval from the TCEQ on August 30, 2017. Accordingly, we will begin construction on the Distillation Unit on 15 acres of our 126-acre tract as soon we receive adequate financing to do so.

 

Completion of the Refinery Project will require substantial equity and debt financing and is subject to the receipt of required governmental permits.

The Company has identified the conversion feature of its convertible notes payable as a derivative and estimated the fair value of the derivative using a multinomial lattice model simulation and assuming the existence of a tainted equity environment (see Note 9).

 

NOTE 9 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

In a series of subscription agreements, the Company issued warrants in prior years that contain certain anti-dilution provisions that have been identified as derivatives. In addition, the Company identified the conversion feature of certain convertible notes payable and recently issued stock options as derivatives. As of July 31, 2019, the number of warrants or common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate; therefore, the Company concluded that the equity environment is tainted and all additional warrants, stock options and convertible debt are included in the value of the derivative. 

 

The Company estimates the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the issuance date and at each subsequent reporting date, using a multinomial lattice model simulation. The model is based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model using projections of the various potential outcomes.

Key inputs and assumptions used in valuing the Company’s derivative liabilities as of July 31, 2019 are as follows:

 

 

·Stock prices on all measurement dates were based on the fair market value

 

 

 

 

·Risk-free interest rate of 1.89%

 

 

 

 

·The probability of future financing was estimated at 100%

 

 

 

 

·Computed volatility ranging from 207% to 317%

  

These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

Shareholders owning in excess of 50.1% of the outstanding shares of voting common stock of the Company executed a written consent approving an amendment to Article IV of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company for these proposals. Upon the effectiveness and on the date that is 20 days following the mailing of the required Information Statement, the board of directors shall have the Company’s Certificate of Amendment to the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation filed with the State of Nevada in order to effect the changes.

 

On September 14, 2018, the Company amended its articles of incorporation to provide for a 1 for 100 reverse stock split of our Class A and Class B common shares. Shareholders owning in excess of 50.1% of the outstanding shares of voting common stock of the Company executed a written consent approving an amendment to Article IV of the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company.

Warrants

 

The Company has issued warrants in prior years to investors in a series of subscription agreements in equity financings or for other stock-based compensation. Certain of the warrants contain anti-dilution provisions that the Company has identified as derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using multinomial lattice models that value the warrants based on a probability weighted cash flow model using projections of the various potential outcomes and considering the existence of a tainted equity environment (see Note 9).

Stock Options

 

As a condition for entering into the October 9, 2018 GS convertible debenture (see Note 8), GS required affiliates of Jack W. Hanks and Bruce Lemons, our directors (the “Affiliates”), to pledge their shares of Class B Common Stock (constituting 100% of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock) to GS to secure the repayment of the debenture by the Company. As consideration to the Affiliates for entering into the GS pledge agreement, the Company granted a ten-year option, effective as of December 11, 2018, to the Affiliates to purchase 1,000,000 of Class A Shares and 1,000,000 of the Class B Shares at $0.08 per share.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, including the notes thereto.

 

Overview

 

Business Plan

 

MMEX Resources Corporation was formed as a Nevada corporation in 2005. The current management team lead an acquisition of the Company (then named Management Energy, Inc.) through a reverse merger completed on September 23, 2010 and changed the Company’s name to MMEX Mining Corporation on February 11, 2011. As of April 12, 2016, the Company changed its name from MMEX Mining Corporation to MMEX Resources Corporation to reflect the change in its business plan to an energy focus in the Americas. 

 

We are a development stage company engaged in the exploration, extraction, refining and distribution of oil, gas, petroleum products and electric power. We plan to focus on the acquisition, development and financing of oil, gas, refining and electric power projects in the Americas using the expertise of our principals to identify, finance and acquire these projects. 

 

The most significant focus of our current business plan is to build crude oil distillation and refining facilities in the Permian Basin in West Texas. We intend to implement our current business plan now in several phases, First, through our subsidiary, Pecos Refining, we intend to build and commence operation of one 10,000 bpd crude oil Distillation Unit, now permitted by the TCEQ, that will produce a non-transportation grade diesel primarily for sale in the local market for drilling mud and frac fluids, along with naphtha and residual fuel oil to be sold to other refiners. In additional phases as separate projects we are contemplating building a second and possibly a third CDU with capacity of 10,000 bpd each. A later fourth phase may include the building and operation of the Large Refinery with up to 100,000 bpd capacity in West Texas. We contemplate that these projects will be built on land owned or land being negotiated for purchase by the Company.

Initially, Pecos Refining, the owner of the 1st Distillation Unit, and the other entities we may form to own and operate the 2nd and 3rd Distillation Units, the Hydrotreater and the Large Refinery will be wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. However, the construction of the Distillation Units, Hydrotreater and the Large Refinery will require substantial equity and debt financing, far beyond the expected resources of the Company, and we anticipate that these Subsidiaries will obtain equity and debt financing to finance the cost of construction. We anticipate these Subsidiaries will be able to finance approximately 65 to 70% of the total costs of the Distillation Units and the Large Refinery through debt financing, and the remaining 35 to 30% of the total costs would be financed through equity investments. To the extent these Subsidiaries raise money through the issuance of equity securities, our ownership will be diluted. We intend to retain managerial control of the Subsidiaries; however, our economic ownership of such entities may be a minority interest. As such, we will be entitled to only a portion of any future distributions made by these Subsidiaries.

 

We plan on marketing and distributing refined products in the Western areas of the United States and Mexico, and we may export product to Latin America. The Projects will be located on the Texas Pacifico Railroad rail route 20 miles Northeast of Fort Stockton, Texas, approximately 1.5 miles from the Sulphur Junction on the Texas Pacifico Railroad. Once needed repairs are finished to the tracks and railway, the Texas Pacifico Railroad will connect to the Ferromex RR in Ojinago, Mexico, giving us access to the western Mexico markets. 

 

The Company has hired VFuels Oil & Gas Engineering and Saulsbury Industries (the “EPCs”) with respect to the construction of the 1st CDU. The total indicated cost estimate including continencies and owner costs plus or minus 10% is $105 Million for the 1st CDU. Once we close on the financing and issue the notice to proceed, the completion and start-up date guaranteed by the EPCs is 15 months. We expect the 2nd CDU to be less in cost than the 1st CDU and the Hydrotreater capex to be in the range of $25,000,000. The total indicated cost of the 1st CDU, the 2nd CDU and the Hydrotreater is in the range of $200 million.

 

According to a report the Company received from KP Engineering, the cost of a 50,000-bpd refinery is estimated to be approximately $500 million and the cost of a 100,000-bpd refinery is estimated to be approximately $850 million. These estimates are only preliminary estimates and are subject to substantial change when additional engineering is completed. 

 

Constructing the Projects will require a significant number of governmental permits and approvals. The principal permit for the construction of any of the Projects is the Air Permit issued by TCEQ and significant construction will not begin until we have received the Air Permit. The Company has received the Air Permit for the 1st Distillation Unit. Once the permit is filed for the, it may take approximately 18 months to obtain the Air Permit for the Large Refinery.

 

Through July 31, 2019, we have had no revenues and have reported continuing losses from operations.

 

Results of Operations

 

Revenues

 

We have not yet begun to generate revenues.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $154,141 to $246,107 for the three months ended July 31, 2019 from $400,248 for the three months ended July 31, 2018. The decrease resulted from lower salaries, travel and other expenses associated with securing debt financing and administrative activities of our refinery project due to limitations on funding during the current fiscal year.

Refinery Start-Up Costs

 

We expense the direct costs incurred prior to opening our proposed crude oil refinery in Pecos County, Texas, including acquisition of refinery rights, planning, design and permitting. Such costs totaled $51,400 for the three months ended July 31, 2019, compared to $161,832 for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and decreased due to financing constraints. The levels of spending on the development of our refinery will vary from period to period based on availability of financing.

 

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

 

Our depreciation and amortization expenses increased to $8,587 for the three months ended July 31, 2019 from $571 for the three months ended July 31, 2018. The increase in the current year is due to depreciation of refinery land improvements and amortization of refinery land easements.

 

Other Income (Expense)

 

Our interest expense increased $280,975 to $687,972 for the three months ended July 31, 2019 from $406,997 for the three months ended July 31, 2018. The increase in interest expense is due to interest accrued on an increased level of convertible debt during the current fiscal year, including amortization of debt discount, and loan penalties.

 

For the three months ended July 31, 2019, we reported a gain on derivative liabilities of $255,127 and a loss on derivative liabilities of $2,876 for the three months ended July 31, 2018. In a series of subscription agreements, we have issued warrants that contain certain anti-dilution provisions that we have identified as derivatives. We also identified the variable conversion feature of certain convertible notes payable as derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using multinomial lattice models that value the warrants based on a probability weighted cash flow model using projections of the various potential outcomes. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility and management’s estimates of various potential equity financing transactions. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

 

We reported a gain on extinguishment of liabilities of $1,992 for the three months ended July 31, 2019 and a loss on extinguishment of liabilities of $1,252 for the three months ended July 31, 2018 related to the issuance of our Class A common shares in payment of accrued expenses. Where shares of our Class A common stock are issued in extinguishment of liabilities, we record the value of the shares issued at the current market price, which at times may differ from the book value of the debt, resulting in a gain or loss on extinguishment of liabilities.

 

Net Loss

 

As a result, we reported net losses of $736,947 and $973,776 for the three months ended July 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Non-Controlling Interest in Income of Consolidated Subsidiaries

 

Currently, we have no activity in our consolidated subsidiaries. Non-controlling interest in income of consolidated subsidiaries was $0 for the three months ended July 31, 2019 and 2019.

 

Net Loss Attributable to the Company

 

Because we had no non-controlling interest in income of consolidated subsidiaries, net loss attributed to the Company was the same as net loss - $736,947 and $973,736 for the three months ended July 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Working Capital

 

As of July 31, 2019, we had current assets of $30,977, including cash of $3,143, and current liabilities of $3,728,732, resulting in a working capital deficit of $3,697,755. Included in our current liabilities as of July 31, 2019 are derivative liabilities of $1,191,956, which we do not anticipate will require the payment of cash.

 

Sources and Uses of Cash

By comparison, we used net cash of $425,876 in operating activities for the three months ended July 31, 2018 as a result of net loss of $973,776 partially offset by non-cash expenses totaling $424,342, decrease in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $2,500 and increases in accounts payable of $75,178, accrued expenses of $43,380 and accrued expenses – related party of $2,500.

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended July 31, 2019 was $2,463, comprised of the purchase of property and equipment. We had no net cash used in or provided by investing activities for the three months ended July 31, 2018.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended July 31, 2019 was $265,300, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable of $365,300, partially offset by repayments of convertible notes payable of $100,000. We had net cash provided by financing activities of $140,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2018, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable.

 

Going Concern Uncertainty

 

Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred continuous losses from operations, have an accumulated deficit of $39,801,065 and a total stockholders’ deficit of $3,294,773 at July 31, 2019, and have reported negative cash flows from operations since inception. In addition, we do not currently have the cash resources to meet our operating commitments for the next twelve months, and we expect to have ongoing requirements for capital investment to implement our business plan, including the construction of our proposed refinery project. Finally, our ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses and complications frequently encountered by entrance into established markets and the competitive environment in which we operate.

 

Since inception, our operations have primarily been funded through private debt and equity financing, and we expect to continue to seek additional funding through private or public equity and debt financing.

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs and/or to raise funds to finance ongoing operations and repay debt. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to raise additional debt or equity capital and/or that our cash generated by our operations will be adequate to meet our needs. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Capital Resources

 

We have not generated any revenues or operating cash flows. As a result, we have significant short-term cash needs. Our principal source of operating capital has been provided from the issuance of convertible notes payable.

 

During the three months ended July 31, 2019, we issued an aggregate of $406,500 principal amount of convertible notes resulting in net proceeds to us of $365,300. The notes are due and payable on various dates through September 4, 2020 and bear interest at rates ranging from 9% to 10%. The notes are convertible into shares of our Class A common stock at a discount from the lowest price during certain measurement periods prior to the date of conversion. In order to redeem the notes, we will be required to pay redemption premiums that range from 5% to 40% of the principal amounts of the notes, depending upon the date of redemption. The notes also contain penalty provisions in the event of our default in repayment of the notes (if not converted by the holder into shares of common stock) on the first anniversary after issuance. See Note 8 to our financial statements for a detail description of each note issued during the three months ended July 31, 2019. During the three months ended July 31, 2019, $361,614 total principal of convertible notes was converted into shares of our Class A common stock.

Table of Contents

 

At July 31, 2019, all of our 10,000,000,000 authorized shares of Class A common stock were either issued or reserved for issuance of outstanding warrants, stock options, and convertible notes payable. Therefore, no Class A common shares are available for share issuances other than those shares included in the reserves pending completion of a proposed increase in authorized Class A common shares. As a result, we have been limited in our ability to raise needed funding from the issuance of additional convertible notes payable.

 

In August 2019, the Company obtained limited funding from the issuance of two convertible notes payable to related parties and a convertible note payable to a consultant.

 

Effective August 5, 2019, issued and delivered to Maple Resources Corporation (“Maple”), a related party, a 5% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $26,000. Maple, at its option may convert the unpaid principal balance of, and accrued interest on, the note into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a conversion price equal to 110% of the lowest price at which shares of the common stock have been issued by the Company during the twenty prior trading days. The note matures on August 5, 2020.

 

Effective September 5, 2019, issued and delivered to Maple, a 5% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $10,000 for consulting services. Maple, at its option may convert the unpaid principal balance of, and accrued interest on, the note into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a conversion price equal to 110% of the lowest price at which shares of the common stock have been issued by the Company during the twenty prior trading days. The note matures on September 5, 2020.

 

Effective August 5, 2019, issued and delivered to BNL Family Trust (“BNL”), a related party, a 5% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $15,000. BNL, at its option may convert the unpaid principal balance of, and accrued interest on, the note into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a conversion price equal to 110% of the lowest price at which shares of the common stock have been issued by the Company during the twenty prior trading days. The note matures on August 5, 2020.

 

Effective August 5, 2019, issued and delivered to consultant (the “Consultant”) a 5% convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $15,000. The Consultant, at his option may convert the unpaid principal balance of, and accrued interest on, the note into shares of the Company’s Class A common stock at a conversion price equal to 110% of the lowest price at which shares of the common stock have been issued by the Company during the twenty prior trading days. The note matures on August 5, 2020. The Consultant funded the note with $5,000 cash and applied $10,000 of consulting fees payable.

 

In addition, we do not expect to have the financial resources necessary to complete the proposed Refinery projects. The Company expects to operate the Distillation Unit through its subsidiary, Pecos Refining, and to operate the Large Refinery through another subsidiary set up for such purpose. The construction of the Distillation Unit and the Large Refinery will require substantial equity and debt financing, far beyond the expected resources of the Company. We anticipate that these Subsidiaries will obtain typical project development financing for the construction and development of the Distillation Unit and the Large Refinery and that such financings will be composed of both debt and equity financings. We anticipate these Subsidiaries will be able to finance approximately 80% of the total costs of the Distillation Unit and the Large Refinery through debt financing, and the remaining 20% of the total costs would be financed through equity investments. The Company has had only preliminary discussions with prospective equity sources regarding the financing of these projects and it is unclear at this time if we will be able to obtain such financing and, if so, how much equity in the Subsidiaries the equity investors will require in order to provide the financing. Any equity financing into which a Subsidiary enters will dilute the Company’s ownership of such Subsidiary. In addition, while the Company believes that the Refinery’s cost is financeable in large part through debt, it has not yet obtained a letter of intent or commitment for such financing.

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 are material to investors.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. 

 

For further information on our significant accounting policies see the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2019 filed with the SEC and Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report. There were no changes to our significant accounting policies during the three months ended July 31, 2019. The following is a description of those significant accounting policies that involve estimates and judgment by management.

 

Derivative liabilities

 

In a series of subscription agreements, the Company issued warrants in prior years that contain certain anti-dilution provisions that have been identified as derivatives. In addition, the Company identified the conversion feature of certain convertible notes payable and convertible preferred stock as derivatives. As of July 31, 2019, the number of warrants or common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate; therefore, the Company concluded that the equity environment is tainted and all additional warrants, stock options and convertible debt are included in the value of the derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using multinomial lattice models that value the derivative liabilities based on a probability weighted cash flow model using projections of the various potential outcomes. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility and management’s estimates of various potential equity financing transactions. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

Fair value of financial instruments

 

Under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, the FASB establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, prepaid expense and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable reported on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short-term nature of the instruments.

 

An entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value using a hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy prioritized the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

 

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Our derivative liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis and estimated as follows:

ITEM 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

ITEM 4 Controls and Procedures

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined) in Exchange Act Rules 13a – 15(c) and 15d – 15(e). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Securities Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. To address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2019. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in 2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework. 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. We have identified the following material weaknesses:

 

 

1.As of July 31, 2019, we did not maintain effective controls over the control environment. Specifically, the Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-B. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness.

 

 

 

 

2.As of July 31, 2019, we did not maintain effective controls over financial statement disclosure. Specifically, controls were not designed and in place to ensure that all disclosures required were originally addressed in our financial statements. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

 

 

 

 

3.As of July 31, 3019, we did not establish a formal written policy for the approval, identification and authorization of related party transactions.

 

 

 

 

4.

As of July 31, 2019, we had no full-time employees with the requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting. As a result, there is a lack of proper segregation of duties necessary to ensure that all transactions are accounted for accurately and in a timely manner.

  

Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2019, based on the criteria established in "2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework" issued by the COSO.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
