Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023

(Expressed in U.S. dollars)

(Unaudited)

 

1. Organization

 

Trillion Energy International Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, (collectively referred to as the “Company”) is a Canadian based oil and gas exploration and production company. Effective January 2022, the corporate headquarters moved to Suite 700, 838 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, B.C., Canada from Turan Gunes Bulvari, Park Oran Ofis Plaza, 180-y, Daire:54, Kat:14, 06450, Oran, Cankaya, Anakara, Turkey. The Company also has a registered office in Canada. The Company is incorporated in British Columbia. The Company’s shares trade on the OTCQB under the symbol “TRLEF” and trade on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “Exchange”) under the symbol “TCF”.

 

On January 21, 2022, the Company redomiciled from Delaware to a British Columbia corporation by way of an amalgamation transaction with the Company’s British Columbian subsidiary, Trillion Energy Inc. (the “Repatriation Transaction”). Pursuant to the Repatriation Transaction, for every one common stock of Trillion Energy International Inc., the shareholders will receive one common stock of Trillion Energy Inc. The Company will continue to operate and report under the name of Trillion Energy International Inc.

 

As a result of the Repatriation Transaction, the Company meets the definition of a foreign private issuer, as defined under Rule 3b-4 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

On September 18, 2023, the Company consolidated its issued share capital on a ratio of five old common shares for every one new post-consolidated common share. All current and comparative references to the number of common shares, weighted average number of common shares, loss per share, stock options and warrants have been restated to give effect to this share consolidation (the “Share Consolidation”).

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern, meaning it will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the ordinary course of operations. As at June 30, 2024, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $25,776,584 (December 31, 2023 - $12,929,942) and its accumulated deficit amounts to $43,211,242 (December 31, 2023 - $44,880,846). In addition, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, cash used by operating activities was $2,634,569. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to complete financings sufficient to meet current and future obligations, the successful results from its business activities, and its ability to operate profitably and generate funds. Although the Company raised capital in current and previous reporting periods, additional funding will be required to continue current operations and further advance its existing oil and gas assets in the upcoming 12 months. These factors indicate the existence of material uncertainty which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

2. Material Accounting Policies

 

(a) Statement of Compliance

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) applicable to the preparation of condensed interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and the Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). Accordingly, certain disclosures included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted and these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

2. Material Accounting Policies (continued)

 

The Company’s management makes judgments in its process of applying the Company’s accounting policies in the preparation of its naudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. In addition, the preparation of the financial data requires that the Company’s management make assumptions and estimates of the effects of uncertain future events on the carrying amounts of the Company’s assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates as the estimation process is inherently uncertain. Estimates are reviewed on an ongoing basis based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates and the resulting effects on the carrying amounts of the Company’s assets and liabilities are accounted for prospectively. The critical judgments and estimates applied in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. In addition, the accounting policies applied in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the board of directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) on August 28, 2024.

 

(b) Basis of Presentation

 

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and Interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”), effective as at January 1, 2024. The consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries Park Place Energy Corp. (“PPE Corp.”), Park Place Energy Bermuda (“PPE Bermuda”), BG Exploration EOOD (“BG Exploration”), and Park Place Energy Turkey (“PPE Turkey”). The Company’s oil and gas operations are conducted jointly with its joint venture partner (Note 6). The joint arrangement meets the definition of a joint operation under IFRS 11, “Joint Arrangements” (“IFRS 11”); therefore, the Company’s share of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses are recorded in the consolidated financial statements. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

 

The functional currency of BG Exploration is the Bulgarian Lev. The functional currency of the Company’s Turkish operations is the Turkish Lira (“₺”). The functional currency of the Company’s Bermuda subsidiary is the United States dollar (“USD”), and the function currency of PPE Corp is the USD.

 

A portion of the Company’s exploration and development activities are conducted jointly with others. The joint interests are accounted for on a proportionate consolidation basis and as a result the financial statements reflect only the Company’s proportionate share of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows from these activities.

Due to various qualitative factors and developments with respect to the economic environment in Turkey, including but not limited to, the acceleration of multiple local inflation indices, the three-year cumulative inflation rate of the local Turkish wholesale price index exceeding 100% at the end of February 2022 and the significant devaluation of the Turkish Lira, Turkey has been designated a hyper-inflationary economy as of April 1, 2022 for accounting purposes.

 

Accordingly, IAS 29, Financial Reporting in Hyper-Inflationary Economies was adopted by the Company in its consolidated financial statements and applied to these consolidated financial statements in relation to PPE Turkey. The consolidated financial statements are based on the historical cost approach in IAS 29.

 

The application of hyperinflation accounting requires restatement of PPE Turkey’s non-monetary assets and liabilities, equity and comprehensive income (loss) items from the original transaction date when they were first recognized into the current purchasing power which reflects a general price index current at the end of the reporting period. To measure the impact of inflation on its financial statements and results, the Company has elected to use the consumer price index (“CPI”) as published by the Turkish Statistical Institute “TURKSTAT”.

 

IAS 29 also requires the restatement of comparative periods for the effects of hyperinflation unless the comparatives were previously presented in a different presentation currency of a non-hyperinflationary economy. The consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in US dollars, a stable currency, and as a result the comparative amounts do not require restatement.

 

On April 1, 2022, the Company recognized an adjustment of $473,907 for the impact of hyperinflation within accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the non-monetary assets held by PPE Turkey, which have been restated from the historic date when they were first recognized to the beginning of the reporting period (the “Opening Hyperinflation Adjustment”). On initial adoption of IAS 29, there is an accounting policy choice to recognize the Opening Hyperinflation Adjustment directly to opening equity or to other comprehensive income and the Company has elected to recognize this amount directly to opening equity.

 

The value of the CPI at June 30, 2024, was 2,319 (December 31, 2023 - 1,859) and the movement in the CPI for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was 460 (2023 – 223), an increase of approximately 25% (2023 – 20%). As a result, the Company recognized a net monetary gain of $12,047,221 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 (2023 - $6,188,247) to restate transactions into a measuring unit current as of each period end.

In 2023, management committed to a plan to sell left-over field equipment with a carrying amount of $3,036,216. Accordingly, the equipment is presented as assets held for sale.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2023, impairment losses of $1,556,787 (2022 - $Nil) were recognized for the write-down of the assets held for sale to the lower of its carrying amount and its fair value less costs to sell. As at June 30, 2024, the value of the Company’s assets held for sale are $1,479,429 (December 31, 2023 - $1,479,429).

 

The non-recurring fair value measurement for the assets held for sale has been categorized as a Level 3 fair value and is based on management’s best estimate of the fair value of similar products in similar conditions in the marketplace. The key inputs used by management to estimate the fair value of the assets-held-for sale is based on offers received from third parties for a large portion of the equipment and extrapolation of the discount to similar items in the assets listing.

6. Oil and Gas Properties (continued)

 

The South Akcakoca Sub-Basin (“SASB”)

 

The Company owns offshore production licenses called the South Akcakoca Sub-Basin (“SASB”). The Company owns a 49% working interest in SASB in partnership with TPAO. SASB has four producing fields, each with a production platform plus subsea pipelines that connect the fields to an onshore gas plant. The four SASB fields are located off the north coast of Turkey towards the western end of the Black Sea.

 

Management assesses each field for impairment indicators at each reporting date. Impairment indicators considered include the following:

 

  Plans to discontinue or dispose of the asset before the previously expected date;
  Significant reductions in estimates or reserves;
  Significant cost overrun on a capital project;
  Significant increases in the expected cost of dismantling assets and restoring the site; and
  Production difficulties.

 

As at June 30, 2024, the Company performed an assessment of potential impairment indicators and noted that the Company’s net asset value was greater than its market capitalization. As a result of the impairment indicator noted, the Company performed an impairment test in accordance with IFRS using fair value less cost to sell. For the purposes of testing impairment and determining fair value less cost to sell, the Company used a 30-year forecast of net cash flows obtained from the annual reserve report discounted at 10% and 20% to estimate the fair value of the oil and gas properties. The resulting recoverable amount exceeded the book values of the oil and gas properties and as such, no impairment charge was recognized as at June 30, 2024. As at June 30, 2024, the depletion calculation includes future development costs of $35,144,000 (December 31, 2023 - $35,144,000) based on the most recent reserve report.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company sold tubing and casing with a cost of $718,366 for proceeds of $422,294, resulting in a loss of $296,072.

10. Leases (continued)

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, $18,417 (2023 - $14,577) of short-term leases were expensed to the condensed consolidated interim statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

 

11. Convertible debentures

 

On April 20, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement to issue 15,000 units of the Company (the “Units”) at a price of CAD$1,000 per unit, for gross proceeds of CAD$15,000,000 (USD$11,135,145). Each Unit will consist of CAD$1,000 (approximately USD$742) principal amount secured convertible debenture (“Debenture”) and 333 common share purchase warrants of the Company (the “Warrants”). Each Warrant will be exercisable for one common share of the Company at an exercise price of CAD$2.50 (approximately USD$1.86) and shall have an expiry date of June 29, 2025.

 

The Debentures will mature on April 30, 2025 (the “Maturity Date”) and will accrue interest at the rate of 12% per annum, payable semi-annually. The Company has the ability to redeem the Debentures at any time between the dates of April 30, 2024 and April 30, 2025 at a redemption price of 105% of the principal amount plus any accrued interest. At the holders’ option, the Debentures may be converted into common shares of the Company at any time, up to the earlier of the Maturity Date and the redemption of the Debentures, at a conversion price of CAD$3.00 (approximately USD$2.23) per common share.

 

The convertible debentures were determined to be a financial instrument comprising a host debt component, a conversion feature classified as equity, and freestanding warrants classified as equity. The warrants and conversion features were determined to be equity components because the exercise prices are denominated in the functional currency of the Company. Thus, these components the criterion of an equity instrument.

 

The Company paid an underwriting fee of CAD$1,045,000 (USD$775,748) and issued 300,000 broker warrants (the “Broker Warrants”) in conjunction with the financing. The Broker Warrants are exercisable for one common share of the Company at an exercise price of CAD$2.50 and shall have an expiry date of April 20, 2025. The fair value of the Broker Warrants was estimated to be $216,777 and was determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model using the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate: 3.77%, expected volatility: 100.96%, dividend yield: 0% and expected life: 2 years.

 

On initial recognition, the proceeds were first allocated to the fair value of the host debt component, calculated using a market interest rate of 16%, which is the market interest rate of a debt instrument with similar terms but without the equity conversion feature. The residual proceeds were then allocated to the conversion feature and warrant equity components using the relative fair value method.

 

The relative fair value of the warrants and conversion features were determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model using the assumptions set out as follows:

   April 20, 2023 
Risk-free interest rate   3.86%
Expected volatility   101.71 – 119.94%
Dividend yield   0%
Expected life   2.03–- 2.19 years

Ending balance  $5,966,456   $6,247,027 

 

The Company’s asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) result from its interest in oil and gas assets including well sites. The total ARO is estimated based on the Company’s net ownership interest in all sites, estimated costs to reclaim and abandon these wells and the estimated timing of the costs to be included in future years. The Company estimated the total undiscounted amount required to settle the ARO as at June 30, 2024 is $16.5 million (December 31, 2023 - $16.5 million). The ARO is calculated using an inflation rate of 2.5% (December 31, 2023 – 2.5%) and discounted using a risk free rate of 4.37% (December 31, 2023 – 4%) between 10 and 20 years.

20. Capital Management

 

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern to support its business plan, as well as to ensure that the Company is able to meet its financial obligations as they become due.

The basis for the Company’s capital structure is dependent on the Company’s expected business growth and changes in business environment. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may issue new shares through private placement, incur debt or return capital to members.

 

The Company is dependent upon external financings to fund activities. In order to carry future projects and pay administrative costs, the Company will utilize its existing working capital and raise additional funds as needed. Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

 

21. Financial Instruments and Risk Management

 

The Company is exposed, through its operations, to the following financial risks:

 

a) Market risk
b) Credit risk
c) Liquidity risk

 

The Company is exposed to risks that arise from its use of financial instruments. This note describes the Company’s objectives, policies, and processes for managing those risks and the methods used to measure them. Further quantitative information in respect of these risks is presented throughout these consolidated financial statements.

 

There have been no substantive changes in the Company’s exposure to financial instrument risks, its objectives, polices and processes for managing those risks or the methods used to measure them from previous reported periods unless otherwise stated in the note. The overall objective of management is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as far as possible without unduly affecting the Company’s competitiveness and flexibility. Further details regarding these policies are set out below.

 

a) Market risk

 

Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as foreign currency exchange, interest rates and equity price risk.

 

Foreign currency risk:

 

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because they are denominated in currencies that differ from the respective functional currency. The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to currency risk as it has transactions denominated in currencies that are different from their functional currencies. The Company does not hedge its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.

 

As at June 30, 2024, the Company’s significant foreign exchange currency exposure on its financial instruments, expressed in USD was as follows:

 

If the CAD strengthened or weakened against the USD by 10% the exchange rate fluctuation would impact net loss by $1,260,732 at June 30, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $954,252).

21. Financial Instruments and Risk Management (continued)

 

Interest rate risk:

 

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The interest earned on cash is insignificant and the Company does not rely on interest income to fund its operations. The Company does not have significant debt facilities with variable interest rates and is therefore not exposed to interest rate risk.

Other price risk:

 

Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Company does not hold equity investments in other entities and therefore is not exposed to a significant risk.

 

b) Credit risk

 

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a customer or third party to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.

 

The Company is subject to credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents and amounts receivable which consists primarily of trade receivables and notes and amounts receivable for equity issued. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss on cash and cash equivalents by placing its cash with a high-quality financial institution. Exposure to credit loss notes and amounts receivable for equity issued is limited by entering into these types of transactions with related parties and entities that are well known to the Company.

 

The Company only has two customers. The Company mitigates credit risk by evaluating the creditworthiness of customers prior to conducting business with them and monitoring its exposure for credit losses with existing customers. One of the customers is the largest oil refinery in Turkey. The other customer provides letters of credit to be used by the Company in the event of default. As at June 30, 2024, all of the Company’s trade receivables are current (< 30 days outstanding).

 

The Company’s maximum credit exposure is $1,467,923 (December 31, 2023 - $2,848,457).

 

c) Liquidity risk

 

Liquidity risk arises from the Company’s general and capital financing needs. The Company continuously monitors and reviews both actual and forecasted cash flows, and also matches the maturity profile of financial assets and liabilities, when feasible. The Company anticipates increases in revenue in future periods resulting from the completion of an additional well subsequent to the period end. Historically, the Company’s sources of funding has been through equity and debt financings. The Company’s access to financing is uncertain. There can be no assurance of continued access to significant debt or equity funding.

 

The table below summarizes the maturity profile of the Company’s contractual cashflows.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities  $15,448,096   $    $-   $15,448,096

Income Tax

 

The Company calculated the period income tax expense using the tax rate that would be applicable to the expected total annual earnings. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized deferred income taxes of $1,921,968 (2023 - $Nil).

 

23. Commitments and Contingencies

 

Close-out Fund

 

The Company has committed to contribute to the Close-Out Fund (Note 12) and is required to deposit 10% of natural gas revenue from the SASB project into the Close-Out Fund until an amount agreed to by both parties is attained. The amount accumulated in the Close-Out Fund will not be used for any purpose other than to cover the cost of close-out of the SASB project.

 

Arbitration

 

The Company through its’ subsidiary PPE Turkey has advanced arbitration against an offshore drilling rig contractor for $20.3 million for gross negligent and breach of contact involving health and safety issues during the prior year drilling program resulting in loss and damages to Company (the “Trillion Losses”). Liability is not admitted, the litigation is at the inception, and thus, legal counsel has advised that is it too soon to predict the outcome or the quantum of damages that will be assessed. The Company is confident that its case has merit.

 

The Company and its subsidiary PPE Turkey is defending an action brought by the same drilling contractor in Europe to which it has advanced an arbitration claim, for drilling services and lost profits seeking $5 million. As no document disclosure has occurred at this time, and the litigation is at its inception, legal counsel has been unable to provide an opinion on the merits of the action or defenses.

 

In accordance with guidance for contingent assets and liabilities, no provision for any potential recovery of the Trillion Losses will be made until recovery is virtually certain. If the Company’s claim is successful, the award will exceed the amount, if any, that is payable to the drilling contractor in its claim, notwithstanding the same, the Company has evaluated the two competing actions separately. As such, the Company has recorded an amount in accounts payable and accrued liabilities for the disputed drilling services for $3 million, and has not yet recorded, due to the status of its arbitration claim, any asset amount for its $20.3 million claim against the drilling contractor. Once legal opinion as to the likely outcome has been obtained, the Company intends to revise the contingent amounts.

 

Maturity date of TR1 Master Fund loans

 

The Company has two loan agreements dated July 1, 2023 with TR1 Master Fund whereby the Company owes $2,982,000 in principal and accrued interest as at June 30, 2024 (Note 9). An agent for the receiver of TR1 Master Fund has demanded payment of the loans as the loans indicate that they were due on December 31, 2023. The Company is claiming that the principal of TR1 Master Fund agreed to extend the loans to December 31, 2024. Negotiations on repayment of the loans with the agent of the receiver for TR1 Master Fund are ongoing.
