EXPLANATORY
NOTE
EnerJex
Resources, Inc. is filing this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-K (the
“Amendment”) to amend its annual report for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2010, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 15, 2010 (the
“Annual Report”). The purpose of this Amendment is to revise the Annual Report
to reflect a compilation error in the calculation of the Registrant’s net
reserves as of March 31, 2010, which was discovered by the Registrant in late
August of 2010. Except for the cover page and this explanatory note, this
Amendment continues to speak as of the original filing date for the Annual
Report and does not update the disclosures contained therein to reflect any
events or results which occurred subsequent to the filing date of the original
Annual Report other than the changes to the Registrant’s reserves as of March
31, 2010 and the effects of the revised reserves on the Registrant’s financial
statements.

PART
I
Items
1 and 2. Business and Properties.
Company History
EnerJex,
formerly known as Millennium Plastics Corporation, is an oil and natural gas
acquisition, exploration and development company. Midwest Energy, Inc. was
incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 30, 2005. Prior to the reverse
merger with Midwest Energy in August of 2006, we operated under the name
Millennium Plastics Corporation and focused on the development of biodegradable
plastic materials. This business plan was ultimately abandoned
following its unsuccessful implementation. Following the merger, we assumed
the business plan of Midwest Energy and entered into the oil and natural gas
industry. Concurrent with the effectiveness of the merger, we changed our name
to “EnerJex Resources, Inc.” The result of the merger was that the former
stockholders of Midwest Energy controlled approximately 98% of our outstanding
shares of common stock. In addition, Midwest Energy was deemed to be the
acquiring company for financial reporting purposes and the merger was accounted
for as a reverse merger. In November 2007 Midwest Energy changed its name to
EnerJex Kansas. All of our current operations are conducted through EnerJex
Kansas and DD Energy, our wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Our Business
Our
principal strategy is to focus on the acquisition of oil and natural gas mineral
leases that have existing production and cash flow. Once acquired, subject to
availability of capital, we strive to implement an accelerated development
program utilizing capital resources, a regional operating focus, an experienced
management and technical team, and enhanced recovery technologies to attempt to
increase production and increase returns for our stockholders. Our oil and
natural gas acquisition and development activities are currently focused in
Eastern Kansas.
From the
beginning of fiscal 2008 through the end of fiscal 2010, we deployed
approximately $12 million in capital resources to acquire and develop five
operating projects and drill 179 new wells (111 producing wells and 65
water injection wells and 3 dry holes). As a result, our estimated total
net proved oil reserves at March 31, 2010 was approximately 2.5 million
barrels of oil equivalent, or BOE. Of the 2.5 million BOE of total
proved reserves, approximately 30% are proved developed and approximately 70%
are proved undeveloped. The proved developed reserves consist of 79% proved
developed producing reserves and 21% proved developed non-producing
reserves.
The total
proved PV10 (present value) of our reserves (“PV10”) as of March 31, 2010 was
approximately $29.9 million. PV10 means the estimated future gross revenue
to be generated from the production of proved reserves, net of estimated
production and future development and abandonment costs, using prices and costs
in effect at the determination date, before income taxes, and without giving
effect to non-property related expenses, discounted to a present value using an
annual discount rate of 10% in accordance with the guidelines of the SEC. PV10
is a non-GAAP financial measure and generally differs from the standardized
measure of discounted future net cash flows, the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measure, because it does not include the effects of income taxes on
future net revenues. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations-Reserves” page 51, for a reconciliation to
the comparable GAAP financial measure.
In response to declining
economic conditions and capital market constraints, we have recently begun to
explore and evaluate various strategic initiatives that would allow us to
continue our plans to grow production and reserves in the mid-continent region
of the United States. Initiatives include creating joint ventures to further
develop current leases, restructuring current debt, as well as evaluating other
options ranging from capital formation to some type of business combination.
We are continually evaluating oil and natural gas opportunities in
Eastern Kansas and anticipate that this economic strategy would allow us to
utilize our own financial assets toward the growth of our leased acreage
holdings, pursue the acquisition of strategic oil and natural gas producing
properties or companies and generally expand our existing operations while
further diversifying risk. Subject to availability of capital, we
plan to continue to bring potential acquisition and JV opportunities to various
financial partners for evaluation and funding options. It is our
vision to grow the business in a disciplined and well-planned
manner. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful
in any of these respects, that the prices of oil and natural gas prevailing at
the time of production will be at a level allowing for profitable production, or
that we will be able to obtain additional funding at terms favorable to us to
increase our currently limited capital resources.
The Opportunity in
Kansas
According
to the Kansas Geological Survey, the State of Kansas has historically been one
of the top 10 domestic oil producing regions in the United States. For the
years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, 39.5 million barrels and 39.7
million barrels of oil were produced in Kansas. Of the total barrels produced in
Kansas in the calendar year ended December 2009, 20 companies accounted for
approximately 35% of the total production, with the remaining 65% produced by
over 3,600 active producers.
In
addition to significant historical oil and natural gas production levels in the
region, we believe that a confluence of the following factors in Eastern Kansas
and the surrounding region make it an attractive area for oil and natural gas
development activities:
|
·
|
Traditional Roll-Up
Strategy. We are seeking, once sufficiently capitalized,
to employ a traditional roll-up strategy utilizing a combination of
capital resources, operational and management expertise, technology, and
our strategic partnership with Haas Petroleum, which has experience
operating in the region for nearly 70
years.
|
|
·
|
Numerous Acquisition
Opportunities. There are many small producers and owners of
mineral rights in the region, which afford us numerous opportunities to
pursue negotiated lease transactions instead of having to competitively
bid on fundamentally sound
assets.
|
|
·
|
Fragmented Ownership
Structure. There are numerous opportunities to acquire
producing properties at attractive prices, because of the currently
inefficient and fragmented ownership
structure.

Black Oaks Project
On April
9, 2007, we entered into a “Joint Exploration Agreement” with a shareholder,
MorMeg, LLC, (MorMeg), controlled by Mark Haas, our chief operating officer and
a director, whereby we agreed to advance $4.0 million to a
joint operating account for further development of MorMeg’s Black Oaks
leaseholds in exchange for a 95% working interest in the Black Oaks
Project. The
Black Oaks Project encompasses approximately 2,400 gross acres in Woodson and
Greenwood Counties, Kansas, which at the time of
acquisition had approximately 35 oil wells producing an average of approximately
32 barrels of oil per day, or BOPD.
The
Black Oaks Project is a primary and enhanced secondary recovery project between
us and MorMeg. Phase I of the Black Oaks Project development plan commenced
shortly after closing with the drilling of 44 in-fill wells. During fiscal 2008,
we began injecting water into the first five water injection wells at an average
rate of approximately 50 barrels of water per day per well. This pilot program
was expanded so that by June 2008, we were injecting approximately 200 barrels
of water per day (bbls water/day) per well in the initial 5 injection wells.
Adjacent oil wells showed increased production from an average of approximately
5 BOPD to 25 BOPD. As of March 31, 2010, we are maintaining the 200 bbls
water/day average on the injection wells in the pilot program area. We have seen
no additional response on this area as of yet. We are
also injecting an average of 100 bbls water/day per well in 4 injection
wells adjacent to the pilot program area and are closely monitoring data and
activities for any resulting increase in production. Based upon the
results of our testing, we expect to continue the development plan, subject to
availability of capital. Phase II of the plan contemplates drilling over 25
additional water injection wells and drilling over 20 additional producer wells.
Project-wide production was an average of approximately 96 BOPD as of March 31,
2010.
We will maintain
our 95% working interest until “payout”, at which time the MorMeg 5% carried
working interest will be converted to a 30% working interest and our working
interest becomes 70%. Payout is generally the point in time when the total
cumulative revenue from the project equals all of the project’s development
expenditures and costs associated with funding. Pursuant to amendments to the
Joint Exploration Agreement, we have until August 1, 2010 to contribute one
million dollars in additional capital toward the Black Oaks Project development.
In addition, we are generally required to provide additional one million dollar
capital contributions every sixty days, or upon full deployment of the prior
capital contribution, until the Black Oaks Project is completed. If we
elect not or cannot, contribute further capital to the Black Oaks Project as
discussed above prior to the project’s full development while it is economically
viable to do so, MorMeg has the option to cease further joint development and we
will receive an undivided interest in the Black Oaks Project. The extension will
have no force and effect, however, upon a material default by EnerJex under the
Texas Capital Bank Credit Facility. The undivided interest will be the
proportionate amount equal to the amount that our investment bears to our
investment plus $2.0 million, with MorMeg receiving an undivided interest in
what remains.
As of
March 31, 2010 (Restated), we had proved oil reserves on Phase I of this project

Thoren
Project
On April
27, 2007, we acquired a 100% working interest in the Thoren Project for $400,000
from MorMeg. This project, at the time of acquisition, contained 240 acres in
Douglas County, Kansas, with 12 oil wells producing an average of approximately
10 BOPD, 4 water injection wells, and one water supply well. We have leased an
additional 486 acres increasing the total acreage of this project to 726
acres.
Through
March 31, 2010, we have invested approximately $800,000 for the development of
this project and as of March 31, 2010, we had 32 oil wells producing an average
of approximately 38 BOPD; along with 16 water injection wells and one water
supply well.
As of
March 31, 2010 (Restated), we had proved oil reserves on this project

We will
maintain our 100% working interest until “payout” and our working interest will
become 75%, at which time the working interest will be converted to a 25%
working interest. Payout for this project occurs at that point in time when the
total cumulative revenue from production equals the total amount of the purchase
price, all costs and expenses incurred by us in the development and operation,
and loan and interest costs incurred in the finance and funding of the purchase.
We anticipate the conversion of our working interest to occur in fiscal
2011.
We have
identified an additional 7 drillable producer locations and 8 drillable injector
locations on this project.
DD Energy
Project
Effective
September 1, 2007, we acquired a 100% working interest in the DD Energy Project
for $2.7 million, which consisted of approximately 1,500 acres in Johnson,
Anderson and Linn Counties, Kansas. At the time of acquisition, this project was
producing an average of approximately 45 BOPD.
In
addition, we have acquired additional leases bringing the total acreage for this
project to approximately 1,700 acres. As of March 31, 2010, we had 110 oil
wells, 41 water injection wells and 2 water supply wells on this project with
production averaging approximately 61 BOPD. Through March 31, 2010, we have
invested an additional $2.4 million in this project and have drilled 41 water
injection wells and 34 producing wells. We have seen some indication
of an initial response from 5 of the injectors and are closely monitoring data
and activities for any resulting increase in production.
As
of March 31, 2010, we had proved oil reserves on this project of:

Tri-County
Project
On
September 14, 2007, we acquired nearly a 100% working interest in the Tri-County
Project for $800,000, which consisted of approximately 1,100 acres in Miami,
Johnson and Franklin Counties, Kansas. At the time of acquisition, this project
was producing an average of approximately 25 BOPD.
Through
March 31, 2010, we have invested approximately $700,000 towards the development
of this project. Funds have been used to drill four producer wells, make
infrastructure upgrades, and perform work-overs on approximately 20 wells in
this project. We have also acquired additional leases, bringing the total
project to approximately 1,300 acres.
As of
March 31, 2010, the Tri-County Project consisted of 166 producing wells and 59
water injection wells with production averaging approximately 49
BOPD.

Gas City
Project
In August
of 2007, we entered into a development agreement with Euramerica Energy, Inc.,
or Euramerica, to further the development and expansion of the Gas City
Project, which included 6,600 acres. Over time Euramerica contributed $1,624,000
in capital toward the project, but failed to fund the full purchase and
development funds needed for the project. Therefore, Euramerica forfeited all of
its interest in the property, including all interests in any wells, improvements
or assets, and all of Euramerica's interest in the property reverted back to
us. In addition, all operating agreements between us and Euramerica
relating to the Gas City Project were deemed null and void.
As of
March 31, 2010, we had proved oil and natural gas reserves on this project

Brownrigg
Project
We entered into an agreement with
Pharyn Resources (Pharyn) on June 1, 2009 to begin a 20 well development program
on EnerJex’s Brownrigg lease in Linn County, Kansas. We contributed the 320 acre
property in exchange for a 10% carried working interest and a cost-plus
management fee. Pharyn contributed up to $700,000 in initial development
capital. In May of 2010 we sold our 10% carried working interest to Pharyn for
$50,000.
Our Business
Strategy
Our
principal strategy has been to focus on the acquisition of oil and natural gas
mineral leases that have existing production and cash flow. Once acquired,
subject to availability of capital, we strive to implement a development program
utilizing capital resources, a regional operating focus, an experienced
management and technical team, and enhanced recovery technologies to attempt to
increase production and increase returns for our stockholders. Our oil and
natural gas acquisition and development activities are currently focused in
Eastern Kansas. Depending on availability
of capital, and other restraints, our goal is to increase
stockholder value by finding and developing oil and natural gas
reserves at
costs that provide an attractive rate of return on our investments. The
principal elements of our business strategy
are:
|
·
|
Develop Our Existing
Properties. We intend to create reserve and production
growth from over 400 additional drilling locations we have identified on
our properties. We have identified an additional 193
drillable producer locations and 213 drillable injector
locations. The structure and the continuous oil accumulation in
Eastern Kansas, and the expected long-life production and reserves of our
properties, are
anticipated to enhance our opportunities for long-term
profitability.
|
|
·
|
Maximize Operational
Control. We seek to operate our properties and maintain
a substantial working interest. We believe the ability to control our
drilling inventory will provide us with the opportunity to more
efficiently allocate capital, manage resources, control operating and
development costs, and utilize our experience and knowledge of oilfield
technologies.
|
|
·
|
Pursue Selective Acquisitions
and Joint Ventures. Due to our local presence in Eastern
Kansas and strategic partnership with Haas Petroleum, we believe we are
well-positioned to pursue selected acquisitions, subject to availability
of capital, from the fragmented and capital-constrained owners of mineral
rights throughout Eastern Kansas.
|
|
·
|
Reduce Unit Costs Through
Economies of Scale and Efficient
Operations. As we increase our oil production and
develop our existing properties, we expect that our unit cost structure
will benefit from economies of scale. In particular, we anticipate
reducing unit costs by greater utilization of our existing infrastructure
over a larger number of wells.
|
We are
continually evaluating oil and natural gas opportunities in Eastern Kansas and
are also in various stages of discussions with potential joint venture (“JV”)
partners who would contribute capital to develop leases we currently own or
would acquire for the JV. In June 2009, we entered into one such
opportunity on the Brownrigg lease in Linn County, Kansas, as discussed
above. This economic strategy is anticipated to allow us to utilize
our own financial assets toward the growth of our leased acreage holdings,
pursue the acquisition of strategic oil and natural gas producing properties or
companies and generally expand our existing operations while further
diversifying risk. Subject to availability of capital, we plan to continue to
bring potential acquisition and JV opportunities to various financial partners
for evaluation and funding options.
Our
future financial results will continue to depend on: (i) our ability to source
and screen potential projects; (ii) our ability to discover commercial
quantities of natural gas and oil; (iii) the market price for oil and natural
gas; and (iv) our ability to fully implement our exploration, work-over and
development program, which is in part dependent on the availability of capital
resources. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in any of these
respects, that the prices of oil and natural gas prevailing at the time of
production will be at a level allowing for profitable production, or that we
will be able to obtain additional funding at terms favorable to us to increase
our currently limited capital resources. For a detailed
description of these and other factors that could materially impact actual
results, please see “Risk Factors” in this document under ITEM 1A.
The board
of directors has implemented a crude oil and natural gas hedging strategy that
will allow management to hedge up to 80% of our net production.
Significant
Developments in Fiscal 2010
The
following is a brief description of our most significant corporate developments
that occurred in fiscal 2010:
|
·
|
In
April and May of 2009, we repurchased a total of $450,000 of the
subordinated debentures and in December 2009, we redeemed $150,000 of the
subordinated debentures and received 75,000 shares of our stock for
cancellation for $193,500 in cash. The principal balance remaining as of
March 31, 2010 is approximately $2.47 million. These debentures mature on
September 30, 2010.
|
|
·
|
On
August 3, 2009, upon advice and recommendation by the GCNC of EnerJex, we
exchanged all of the 438,500 outstanding options to purchase shares of our
common stock for shares of twelve-month restricted common stock to be
issued pursuant to the terms of the EnerJex Resources, Inc. Stock
Incentive Plan. All of the stock options outstanding on August
3, 2009 were exchanged for 109,700 shares of restricted common stock
valued at $109,700 based upon the fair market value of the stock on the
date of exchange.
|
|
·
|
Also
on August 3, 2009, we awarded 211,050 shares of twelve-month restricted
common stock, valued at $211,500 to be issued pursuant to the terms of the
EnerJex Resources, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan for the
following: 151,750 shares to employees as incentive
compensation (with such shares being issued on August 4, 2010 assuming
each employee remains employed by us through such in June of 2010); and
59,300 shares to our named executives and independent directors as
compensation related to options rescinded in the prior fiscal
year.
|
|
·
|
In
addition, on August 3, 2009, we issued 150,000 shares of restricted common
stock (valued at $150,000) to vendors in satisfaction of certain
outstanding balances payable to them and 32,000 shares of restricted
common stock (valued at $32,000) to the four non-employee directors in
lieu of cash compensation for board retainers for the period from July 1,
2009 through September 30, 2009.
|
|
·
|
Effective
August 18, 2009, the Credit Facility with Texas Capital Bank was amended
to implement a minimum interest rate of five percent (5.0%); establish
minimum volumes to be hedged by September 15, 2009 of not less than
seventy-five percent (75%) of the proved developed producing reserves
attributable to our interest in the borrowing base oil and gas properties
projected to be produced; and reduce the borrowing base to $6,986,500.
Additionally, the borrowing base was reduced by $100,000 on the first day
of each month by a Monthly Borrowing Base Reduction (MBBR) beginning
September 1, 2009 and continuing through the January 1, 2010
redetermination.
|
|
·
|
On
August 25, 2009 we entered into a fixed price swap transaction under the
terms of the BP ISDA for a total of
20,250 gross barrels at a price of $77.05 per barrel before transportation
costs for the period beginning October 1, 2009 and ending on March 31,
2011. This transaction allowed us to comply with the minimum
hedge volumes required by Texas Capital Bank and increased the weighted
average price for hedged volumes to between $64.958 and $61.963 from
October 1, 2009 through March 2011.
|
|
·
|
On
August 25, 2009, we entered into an agreement with Coffeyville Resources
Refining and Marketing, LLC (“Coffeyville”) to sell all our crude oil
production beginning October 1, 2009 through March 31, 2011 to
Coffeyville. All physical production will be sold to Coffeyville at
current market prices defined as the average of the daily settlement price
for light sweet crude oil reported by NYMEX for any given delivery month.
All prices received are before location basis differential and oil quality
adjustments.
|
|
·
|
On
December 3, 2009, we entered into a Stock Equity Distribution Agreement
(“SEDA”) with Paladin Capital Management, S.A. (“Paladin”). The
SEDA provides that we may issue and sell to Paladin up to 1,300,000 shares
(subject to adjustment as provided therein) of our common
stock. We issued 90,000 shares to Paladin as a commitment fee
under the terms of the SEDA. The price we receive shall be set
at (i) 95% of the Market Price to the extent the Common Stock is trading
at or above $2.00 per share during the Pricing Period, (ii) 92% of the
Market Price to the extent the Common Stock is trading at or above $1.00
per share during the Pricing Period, (iii) 90% of the Market Price to the
extent the Common Stock is trading below $1.00 per share during the
Pricing Period, or (iv) 85% of the Market Price for the initial two
advances. In December of 2009 we filed a registration statement
on Form S-1 to register the 1,390,000 shares included in the
SEDA.
|
|
·
|
On
January 4, 2010, we issued to MorMeg, LLC 45,000 shares of restricted
common stock for payment of consulting fees accrued from July 2009 through
March 31, 2010 and 65,000 shares of restricted common stock as payment for
granting an extension on the date required to provide additional
development funding on the Black Oaks
project.
|
|
·
|
On
January 5, 2010, in an effort for us to preserve cash in light of
deteriorated global economic conditions and the significant declines in
commodity prices of oil and natural gas, Steve Cochennet, our
CEO/President, agreed to convert his salary for the months of January and
February 2010 into 73,261 shares of the Company’s restricted common
stock.
|
|
·
|
Effective
January 13, 2010, the Credit Facility with Texas Capital Bank was amended
to modify the senior funded debt to EBITDA ratio on a quarterly basis
beginning with the quarter ending December 31, 2009 and to modify the
annualization of the interest coverage ratio, also beginning with the
quarter ending December 31, 2009. The senior funded debt to
EBITDA ratio allowed is 6.25:1.00 at December 31, 2009; 5.75:1.00 at March
31, 2010; 5.25:1.00 at June 30, 2010; and 4.75:1.00 at September 30, 2010;
and 4.25:1.00 for all quarters ending after September 30,
2010. We were not in compliance with the working capital ratio
covenant at December 31, 2009; however, we were able to obtain a waiver of
default from TCB.
|
|
·
|
In
the first quarter of 2010, we further amended the Debentures to extend the
scheduled due dates for the January and February 2010 redemption payments
to March 10, 2010 and to remove the conversion feature of the
Debentures. Further, the Maturity Date was extended to December
31, 2010.
|
Relationship with Haas
Petroleum and
MorMeg
In April
of 2007, we entered into a consulting agreement with Mark Haas, President of
Haas Petroleum and managing member of MorMeg, which was terminated in April of
2010 when Mr. Haas was appointed to serve as our chief operating officer and a
director. Mr. Haas provides executive level services regarding field
development, acquisition evaluation, identification of additional acquisition
opportunities and overall business strategy. Haas Petroleum has been in the oil
exploration and production business for over 70 years and Mark Haas has been in
the business for over 30 years.
We
believe that this relationship provides us with a competitive advantage when
evaluating and sourcing acquisition opportunities. As a long-term producer and
oil field service provider, Haas Petroleum has existing relationships with
numerous oil and natural gas producers in Eastern Kansas and is generally
aware of existing opportunities to enhance many of these properties through the
deployment of capital, and application of enhanced drilling and production
technologies. We believe that we will be able to leverage the experience and
relationships of Mr. Haas to compliment our business strategy. To date, Mr.
Haas has helped us identify and evaluate all of our property acquisitions, and
has been instrumental in the creation and implementation of our development
plans of these properties.

Reserves
Our
estimated total proved PV10 (present value) before tax of reserves as of March
31, 2010 (Restated) was $29.9 million, versus $10.63 million as of March 31,
2009. Our total proved reserves increased almost 38% at March 31, 2010 over
2009 from 2.5 million and 1.3 million barrels of oil equivalent (BOE),
respectively. In addition, the PV10 increased dramatically due to the
estimated average price of oil at March 31, 2010 of $62.64 versus $42.65 at
March 31, 2009. Of the 2.5 million BOE at March 31, 2010
approximately 30% are proved developed and approximately 70% are proved
undeveloped. The proved developed reserves consist of proved developed producing
(79%) and proved developed non-producing (21%). See “Glossary” on page 21
for our definition of PV10.
Based
on an estimated oil price of $62.64 as of March 31, 2010, and applying an annual
discount rate of 10% of the future net cash flow, the estimated PV10 of the 2.5
million BOE, before tax, is calculated as set forth in the following

Oil and Natural Gas Reserves Reported
to Other Agencies
We did
not file any estimates of total proved net oil or natural gas reserves with, or
include such information in reports to, any federal authority or agency, other
than the SEC, during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.
Title to
Properties
Our
properties are subject to customary royalty interests, liens under indebtedness,
liens incident to operating agreements and liens for current taxes and other
burdens, including mineral encumbrances and restrictions. Further, our debt is
secured by first and second liens substantially on all of our assets. These
burdens have not materially interfered with the use of our properties in the
operation of our business to date, though there can be no assurance that such
burdens will not materially impact our operations in the future.
We
believe that we have satisfactory title to or rights in all of our producing
properties. As is customary in the natural gas and oil industry, minimal
investigation of title is made at the time of acquisition of undeveloped
properties. In most cases, we investigate title and obtain title opinions from
counsel or have title reviewed by professional landmen only when we acquire
producing properties or before we begin drilling operations. However, any
acquisition of producing properties without obtaining title opinions are subject
to a greater risk of title defects.
Sale of Natural Gas and
Oil
We do not
intend to refine our natural gas or oil production. We expect to sell all or
most of our production to a small number of purchasers in a manner consistent
with industry practices at prevailing rates by means of long-term and short-term
sales contracts, some of which may have fixed price components. We have a
long-term purchase contract with Coffeyville to sell all of our current oil
production through March of 2011. We also have an ISDA master agreement and a
fixed price swap with BP beginning October 1, 2009 through December 31,
2013. Under current conditions, we should be able to find other purchasers,
if needed. All of our produced oil is held in tank batteries and then each
respective purchaser transports the oil by truck to the refinery. In addition,
our board of directors has implemented a crude oil and natural gas hedging
strategy that will allow management to hedge up to 80% of our net production in
an effort to mitigate a majority of our exposure to changing oil prices in the
intermediate term.
Secondary Recovery and Other
Production Enhancement Strategies
When an
oil field is first produced, the oil typically is recovered as a result of
natural pressure within the producing formation, often assisted by pumps of
various types. The only natural force present to move the crude oil to the
wellbore is the pressure differential between the higher pressure in the
formation and the lower pressure in the wellbore. At the same time, there are
many factors that act to impede the flow of crude oil, depending on the nature
of the formation and fluid properties, such as pressure, permeability, viscosity
and water saturation. This stage of production is referred to as “primary
production,” which in Eastern Kansas normally only recovers up to 15% of the
crude oil originally in place in a producing formation.
Many, but
not all, oil fields are amenable to assistance from a waterflood, a form of
“secondary recovery,” which is used to maintain or increase reservoir pressure
and to help sweep oil to the wellbore. In a waterflood, certain wells are used
to inject water into the reservoir while other wells are used to recover the oil
in place. We utilize waterflooding as a secondary recovery technique for
the majority of our oil field projects.
As the
waterflood matures, the fluid produced contains increasing amounts of water and
decreasing amounts of oil. Surface equipment is used to separate the oil from
the water, with the oil going to holding tanks for sale and the water being
recycled to the injection facilities. In the Black Oaks Project, we realized an
initial increase of approximately 20 barrels per day in oil production as a
result of the waterflood pilot program.
In
addition, we may utilize 3-D seismic analysis, horizontal drilling, and other
technologies and production techniques to improve drilling results and
ultimately enhance our production and returns. We also believe use of such
technologies and production techniques in exploring for, developing and
exploiting oil and natural gas properties will help us reduce drilling risks,
lower finding costs and provide for more efficient production of oil and natural
gas from our properties.
Markets and Marketing
The
natural gas and oil industry has experienced dramatic price volatility in recent
years, and especially in recent months. As a commodity, global natural gas and
oil prices respond to macro-economic factors affecting supply and demand. In
particular, world oil prices have risen and fallen in response to political
unrest and supply uncertainty in the United States, Iraq, Venezuela, Nigeria,
Russia and Iran, and changing demand for energy in rapidly growing economies,
notably India and China. North American prospects have become more attractive as
efforts to stimulate the US economy and reduce dependence on foreign oil
increase. Escalating conflicts in the Middle East and the ability of OPEC to
control supply and pricing are some of the factors impacting the availability of
global supply. The costs of steel and other products used to construct drilling
rigs and pipeline infrastructure, as well as drilling and well-servicing
rig rates, are impacted by the commodity price volatility.
Our
market is affected by many factors beyond our control, such as the availability
of other domestic production, commodity prices, the proximity and capacity of
natural gas and oil pipelines, and general fluctuations of global and domestic
supply and demand. We have entered into two sales contracts (with Coffeeville
Resources and BP) at this time, and we do not anticipate difficulty in
finding additional sales opportunities, as and when needed.
Natural
gas and oil sales prices are negotiated based on factors such as the spot price
for natural gas or posted price for oil, price regulations, regional price
variations, hydrocarbon quality, distances from wells to pipelines, well
pressure, and estimated reserves. Many of these factors are outside our control.
Natural gas and oil prices have historically experienced high volatility,
related in part to ever-changing perceptions within the industry of future
supply and demand.
Competition
The
natural gas and oil industry is intensely competitive and we must compete
against larger companies that may have greater financial and technical resources
than we do and substantially more experience in our industry. These competitive
advantages may better enable our competitors to sustain the impact of higher
exploration and production costs, natural gas and oil price volatility,
productivity variances between properties, overall industry cycles and other
factors related to our industry. Their advantage may also negatively impact our
ability to acquire prospective properties, develop reserves, attract and
retain quality personnel and raise capital.
Research
and Development Activities
We have not spent any material amount
of time in the last two fiscal years on research and development
activities.
Governmental
Regulations
Regulation of Oil and Natural Gas
Production. Our oil and natural gas exploration, production
and related operations, when developed, are subject to extensive rules and
regulations promulgated by federal, state, tribal and local authorities and
agencies. For example, some states in which we may operate, including Kansas,
require permits for drilling operations, drilling bonds and reports concerning
operations and impose other requirements relating to the exploration and
production of oil and natural gas. Such states may also have statutes or
regulations addressing conservation matters, including provisions for the
unitization or pooling of oil and natural gas properties, the establishment of
maximum rates of production from wells, and the regulation of spacing, plugging
and abandonment of such wells. Failure to comply with any such rules and
regulations can result in substantial penalties. Moreover, such states may place
burdens from previous operations on current lease owners, and the burdens could
be significant. The regulatory burden on the oil and natural gas industry will
most likely increase our cost of doing business and may affect our
profitability. Although we believe we are currently in substantial compliance
with all applicable laws and regulations, because such rules and regulations are
frequently amended or reinterpreted, we are unable to predict the future cost or
impact of complying with such laws. Significant expenditures may be required to
comply with governmental laws and regulations and may have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Federal Regulation of Natural
Gas. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”)
regulates interstate natural gas transportation rates and service conditions,
which may affect the marketing of natural gas produced by us, as well as the
revenues that may be received by us for sales of such production. Since the
mid-1980’s, FERC has issued a series of orders, culminating in Order Nos. 636,
636-A and 636-B (“Order 636”), that have significantly altered the marketing and
transportation of natural gas. Order 636 mandated a fundamental restructuring of
interstate pipeline sales and transportation service, including the unbundling
by interstate pipelines of the sale, transportation, storage and other
components of the city-gate sales services such pipelines previously performed.
One of FERC’s purposes in issuing the order was to increase competition within
all phases of the natural gas industry. The United States Court of Appeals for
the District of Columbia Circuit largely upheld Order 636 and the Supreme Court
has declined to hear the appeal from that decision. Generally, Order 636 has
eliminated or substantially reduced the interstate pipelines’ traditional role
as wholesalers of natural gas in favor of providing only storage and
transportation service, and has substantially increased competition and
volatility in natural gas markets.
The price
we may receive from the sale of oil and natural gas liquids will be affected by
the cost of transporting products to markets. Effective January 1, 1995, FERC
implemented regulations establishing an indexing system for transportation rates
for oil pipelines, which, generally, would index such rates to inflation,
subject to certain conditions and limitations. We are not able to predict with
certainty the effect, if any, of these regulations on our intended operations.
However, the regulations may increase transportation costs or reduce well head
prices for oil and natural gas liquids.
Environmental
Matters
Our
operations and properties are subject to extensive and changing federal, state
and local laws and regulations relating to environmental protection, including
the generation, storage, handling, emission, transportation and discharge of
materials into the environment, and relating to safety and health. The recent
trend in environmental legislation and regulation generally is toward stricter
standards, and this trend will likely continue.
These
laws and regulations may:
|
·
|
require
the acquisition of a permit or other authorization before construction or
drilling commences and for certain other
activities;
|
|
·
|
limit
or prohibit construction, drilling and other activities on certain lands
lying within wilderness and other protected areas;
and
|
|
·
|
impose
substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from its operations, or
due to previous operations conducted on any leased
lands.
|
The
permits required for our operations may be subject to revocation, modification
and renewal by issuing authorities. Governmental authorities have the power to
enforce their regulations, and violations are subject to fines or injunctions,
or both. In the opinion of management, we are in substantial compliance with
current applicable environmental laws and regulations, and have no material
commitments for capital expenditures to comply with existing environmental
requirements. Nevertheless, changes in existing environmental laws and
regulations or in interpretations thereof could have a significant impact on
us, as well as the oil and natural gas industry in general.
The
Comprehensive Environmental, Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, as
amended (“CERCLA”), and comparable state statutes impose strict, joint and
several liability on owners and operators of sites and on persons who disposed
of or arranged for the disposal of “hazardous substances” found at such sites.
It is not uncommon for the neighboring land owners and other third parties to
file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the
hazardous substances released into the environment. The Federal Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act, as amended (“RCRA”), and comparable state
statutes govern the disposal of “solid waste” and “hazardous waste” and
authorize the imposition of substantial fines and penalties for
noncompliance. Although CERCLA currently excludes petroleum from its definition
of “hazardous substance,” state laws affecting our operations may impose
clean-up liability relating to petroleum and petroleum related products. In
addition, although RCRA classifies certain oil field wastes as “non-hazardous,”
such exploration and production wastes could be reclassified as hazardous wastes
thereby making such wastes subject to more stringent handling and disposal
requirements.
The
Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972, as amended (“Clean Water Act”), and
analogous state laws impose restrictions and controls on the discharge of
pollutants into federal and state waters. These laws also regulate the discharge
of storm water in process areas. Pursuant to these laws and regulations, we are
required to obtain and maintain approvals or permits for the discharge of
wastewater and storm water and develop and implement spill prevention, control
and countermeasure plans, also referred to as “SPCC plans,” in connection with
on-site storage of greater than threshold quantities of oil. The EPA issued
revised SPCC rules in July 2002 whereby SPCC plans are subject to more rigorous
review and certification procedures. We believe that our operations are in
substantial compliance with applicable Clean Water Act and analogous state
requirements, including those relating to wastewater and storm water discharges
and SPCC plans.
The
Endangered Species Act, as amended (“ESA”), seeks to ensure that activities do
not jeopardize endangered or threatened animal, fish and plant species, nor
destroy or modify the critical habitat of such species. Under ESA, exploration
and production operations, as well as actions by federal agencies, may not
significantly impair or jeopardize the species or its habitat. ESA provides for
criminal penalties for willful violations of the Act. Other statutes that
provide protection to animal and plant species and that may apply to our
operations include, but are not necessarily limited to, the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination Act, the Fishery Conservation and Management Act, the Migratory
Bird Treaty Act and the National Historic Preservation Act. Although we believe
that our operations will be in substantial compliance with such statutes, any
change in these statutes or any reclassification of a species as endangered
could subject us to significant expenses to modify our operations or could force
us to discontinue certain operations altogether.
Personnel
As of
March 31, 2010, we had 14 full-time employees; however, subsequent to year-end
we have reduced staff to 5 employees. As production and drilling
activities increase or decrease, we may have to continue to adjust our
technical, operational and administrative personnel as appropriate. We are using
and will continue to use independent consultants and contractors to perform
various professional services, particularly in the area of land services,
reservoir engineering, geology drilling, water hauling, pipeline construction,
well design, well-site monitoring and surveillance, permitting and environmental
assessment. We believe that this use of third-party service providers may
enhance our ability to contain operating and general expenses, and capital
costs.
Facilities
We currently lease our
executive offices at 27 Corporate Woods, Suite 350, 10975 Grandview
Drive, Overland Park, Kansas 66210, which expires in September 30,
2013. Future minimum payments $72,000 to $75,600 for years
ended March 31, 2011-2013 and $38,750 for the year ended March 31,
2014.

|
Secondary
Recovery
|
|
The
stage of hydrocarbon production during which an external fluid such as
water or natural gas is injected into the reservoir through injection
wells located in rock that has fluid communication with production wells.
The purpose of secondary recovery is to maintain reservoir pressure and to
displace hydrocarbons toward the wellbore.
The
most common secondary recovery techniques are natural gas injection and
waterflooding. Normally, natural gas is injected into the natural gas cap
and water is injected into the production zone to sweep oil from the
reservoir. A pressure-maintenance program can begin during the primary
recovery stage, but it is a form of enhanced recovery.

Item
1A. Risk Factors.
In the
course of conducting our business operations, we are exposed to a variety of
risks that are inherent to the oil and gas industry. The following discusses
some of the key inherent risk factors that could affect our business and
operations, as well as other risk factors which are particularly relevant to us
in the current period of significant economic and market disruption. Other
factors besides those discussed below or elsewhere in this report also could
adversely affect our business and operations, and these risk factors should not
be considered a complete list of potential risks that may affect
us.
Declining
economic conditions could negatively impact our business
Our
operations are affected by local, national and worldwide economic
conditions. Markets in the United States and elsewhere have been
experiencing extreme volatility and disruption for more than 12 months, due in
part to the financial stresses affecting the liquidity of the banking system and
the financial markets generally. In recent months, this volatility
and disruption has reached unprecedented levels. The consequences of
a potential or prolonged recession may include a lower level of economic
activity and uncertainty regarding energy prices and the capital and commodity
markets. While the ultimate outcome and impact of the current economic
conditions cannot be predicted, a lower level of economic activity might result
in a decline in energy consumption, which may materially adversely affect the
price of oil, our revenues, liquidity and future growth. Instability
in the financial markets, as a result of recession or otherwise, also may affect
the cost of capital and our ability to raise capital.
We
have sustained losses, which raises doubt as to our ability to successfully
develop profitable business operations.
Our
prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties
frequently encountered in establishing and maintaining a business in the oil and
natural gas industries. There is nothing conclusive at this time on which to
base an assumption that our business operations will prove to be successful or
that we will be able to operate profitably. Our future operating results will
depend on many factors, including:
|
·
|
the
future prices of natural gas and
oil;
|
|
·
|
our
ability to raise adequate working
capital;
|
|
·
|
success
of our development and exploration
efforts;
|
|
·
|
effects
of our hedging strategies;
|
|
·
|
demand
for natural gas and oil;
|
|
·
|
the
level of our competition;
|
|
·
|
our
ability to attract and maintain key management, employees and
operators;
|
|
·
|
transportation
and processing fees on our
facilities;
|
|
·
|
fuel
conservation measures;
|
|
·
|
alternate
fuel requirements or advancements;
|
|
·
|
government
regulation and taxation;
|
|
·
|
technical
advances in fuel economy and energy generation devices;
and
|
|
·
|
our
ability to efficiently explore, develop and produce sufficient quantities
of marketable natural gas or oil in a highly competitive and speculative
environment while maintaining quality and controlling
costs.
|
To
achieve profitable operations, we must, alone or with others, successfully
execute on the factors stated above, along with continually developing ways to
enhance our production efforts. Despite our best efforts, we may not be
successful in our development efforts or obtain required regulatory approvals.
There is a possibility that some of our wells may never produce natural gas
or oil in sustainable or economic quantities.
We will
need additional capital in the future to finance our planned growth, which we
may not be able to raise or may only be available on terms unfavorable to us or
our stockholders, which may result in our inability to fund our working capital
requirements and harm our operational results.
We have
and expect to continue to have substantial capital expenditure and working
capital needs. We will need to rely on cash flow from operations and borrowings
under our Credit Facility or raise additional cash to fund our operations, pay
outstanding long-term debt, fund our anticipated reserve replacement needs and
implement our growth strategy, or respond to competitive pressures and/or
perceived opportunities, such as investment, acquisition, exploration, work-over
and development activities.
If low
natural gas and oil prices, operating difficulties, constrained capital sources
or other factors, many of which are beyond our control, cause our revenues or
cash flows from operations to decrease, we may be limited in our ability to
spend the capital necessary to complete our development, production exploitation
and exploration programs. If our resources or cash flows do not satisfy our
operational needs, we will require additional financing, in addition to
anticipated cash generated from our operations, to fund our planned growth.
Additional financing might not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all.
If adequate funds were not available or were not available on acceptable terms,
our ability to fund our operations, take advantage of opportunities, develop or
enhance our business or otherwise respond to competitive pressures would be
significantly limited. In such a capital restricted situation, we may curtail
our acquisition, drilling, development, and exploration activities or be forced
to sell some of our assets on an untimely or unfavorable basis. Our
current plans to address lower crude and natural gas prices are primarily to
reduce both capital and operating expenditures to a level equal to or below cash
flow from operations. However, our plans may not be successful in
improving our results of operations and liquidity.
If we
raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt
securities, the percentage ownership of our stockholders would be reduced, and
these newly issued securities might have rights, preferences or privileges
senior to those of existing stockholders.
Our
auditor’s report reflects the fact that without realization of additional
capital, it would be unlikely for us to continue as a going
concern.
As a
result of our deficiency in working capital at March 31, 2010 and other factors,
our auditors have included a paragraph in their audit report regarding
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our plans in
this regard are to increase production, seek strategic alternatives and to seek
additional capital through future equity private placements or debt
facilities.
Natural
gas and oil prices are volatile. This volatility may occur in the future,
causing negative change in cash flows which may result in our inability to cover
our operating or capital expenditures.
Our
future revenues, profitability, future growth and the carrying value of our
properties is anticipated to depend substantially on the prices we may realize
for our natural gas and oil production. Our realized prices may also affect the
amount of cash flow available for operating or capital expenditures and our
ability to borrow and raise additional capital.
Natural
gas and oil prices are subject to wide fluctuations in response to relatively
minor changes in or perceptions regarding supply and demand. Historically, the
markets for natural gas and oil have been volatile, and they are likely to
continue to be volatile in the future. Among the factors that can cause this
volatility are:
|
·
|
local,
national and worldwide economic
conditions;
|
|
·
|
worldwide
or regional demand for energy, which is affected by economic
conditions;
|
|
·
|
the
domestic and foreign supply of natural gas and
oil;
|
|
·
|
domestic
and foreign governmental regulations and
taxation;
|
|
·
|
political
and economic conditions in oil and natural gas producing countries,
including those in the Middle East and South
America;
|
|
·
|
impact
of the U.S. dollar exchange rates on oil and natural gas
prices;
|
|
·
|
the
availability of refining capacity;
|
|
·
|
actions
of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, or OPEC, and other
state controlled oil companies relating to oil price and production
controls; and
|
|
·
|
the
price and availability of other
fuels.
|
It is
impossible to predict natural gas and oil price movements with certainty. Lower
natural gas and oil prices may not only decrease our future revenues on a per
unit basis but also may reduce the amount of natural gas and oil that we can
produce economically. A substantial or extended decline in natural gas and oil
prices may materially and adversely affect our future business enough to force
us to cease our business operations. In addition, our reserves, financial
condition, results of operations, liquidity and ability to finance and execute
planned capital expenditures will also suffer in such a price decline. Further,
natural gas and oil prices do not necessarily move together.
Approximately 76%
of our total proved reserves as of March 31, 2010 consist of undeveloped and
developed non-producing reserves, and those reserves may not ultimately be
developed or produced.
Our
estimated total proved PV 10 (present value) before tax of reserves as of March
31, 2010 (Restated) was $29.9 million, versus $10.63 million as of March 31,
2009. The substantial increase in PV10 is primarily due to the
estimated average price of oil at March 31, 2010 of $62.64 versus $42.65 at
March 31, 2009. We developed total proved reserves to 2.5 million
barrels of oil equivalent, or BOE, as of March 31, March 31, 2010. Of the
2.5 million BOE of total proved reserves, approximately 30% are proved
developed and approximately 70% are proved undeveloped. The proved developed
reserves consist of 79% proved developed producing reserves and 21% proved
developed non-producing reserves. See “Glossary” on page 21 for
our definition of PV10.
As of
March 31, 2010, approximately 70% of our total proved reserves were undeveloped
and approximately 6% were developed non-producing. Assuming we can obtain
adequate capital resources, we plan to develop and produce all of our proved
reserves, but ultimately some of these reserves may not be developed or
produced. Furthermore, not all of our undeveloped or developed non-producing
reserves may be ultimately produced in the time periods we have planned, at the
costs we have budgeted, or at all.
Because
we face uncertainties in estimating proven recoverable reserves, you should not
place undue reliance on such reserve information.
Our
reserve estimate and the future net cash flows attributable to those reserves at
March 31, 2010 was prepared by Miller and Lents, Ltd., an independent petroleum
consultant. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating
quantities of proved reserves and cash flows from such reserves, including
factors beyond our control and the control of these independent consultants and
engineers. Reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground
accumulations of natural gas and oil that can be economically extracted, which
cannot be measured in an exact manner. The accuracy of an estimate of quantities
of reserves, or of cash flows attributable to these reserves, is a function of
the available data, assumptions regarding future natural gas and oil prices,
expenditures for future development and exploitation activities, and engineering
and geological interpretation and judgment. Reserves and future cash flows may
also be subject to material downward or upward revisions based upon production
history, development and exploitation activities and natural gas and oil prices.
Actual future production, revenue, taxes, development expenditures, operating
expenses, quantities of recoverable reserves and value of cash flows from those
reserves may vary significantly from the assumptions and estimates in our
reserve reports. Any significant variance from these assumptions to actual
figures could greatly affect our estimates of reserves, the economically
recoverable quantities of natural gas and oil attributable to any particular
group of properties, the classification of reserves based on risk of recovery,
and estimates of the future net cash flows. In addition, reserve engineers
may make different estimates of reserves and cash flows based on the same
available data. The estimated quantities of proved reserves and the discounted
present value of future net cash flows attributable to those reserves included
in this report were prepared by Miller and Lents, Ltd. in accordance with
rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and are not intended to
represent the fair market value of such reserves.
The
present value of future net cash flows from our proved reserves is not
necessarily the same as the current market value of our estimated reserves. We
base the estimated discounted future net cash flows from our proved reserves on
prices and costs. However, actual future net cash flows from our natural gas and
oil properties also will be affected by factors such as:
|
·
|
assumptions
governing future oil and natural gas
prices;
|
|
·
|
amount
and timing of actual production;
|
|
·
|
future
operating and development costs;
|
|
·
|
actual
prices we receive for natural gas and
oil;
|
|
·
|
supply
and demand for our natural gas and
oil;
|
|
·
|
changes
in government regulations and taxation;
and
|
|
·
|
capital
costs of drilling new wells.
|
The
timing of both our production and our incurrence of expenses in connection with
the development and production of our properties will affect the timing of
actual future net cash flows from proved reserves, and thus their actual present
value. In addition, the 10% discount factor we use when
calculating discounted future net cash flows may not be the most
appropriate discount factor based on interest rates in effect from time to time
and risks associated with our business or the natural gas and oil industry in
general.
The
differential between the New York Mercantile Exchange, or NYMEX, or other
benchmark price of oil and natural gas and the wellhead price we receive could
have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition
and cash flows.
The
prices that we receive for our oil and natural gas production typically
trade at a discount to the relevant benchmark prices, such as NYMEX, that are
used for calculating hedge positions. The difference between the benchmark price
and the price we receive is called a differential. While we have fixed this
differential under the terms of our agreement with BP through March of
2011, the differential on physical sales after that date is still under
negotiation. We cannot accurately predict oil and natural gas
differentials. In recent years for example, production increases from competing
Canadian and Rocky Mountain producers, in conjunction with limited refining and
pipeline capacity from the Rocky Mountain area, have gradually widened this
differential. Recent economic conditions, including volatility in the price of
oil and natural gas, have resulted in both increases and decreases in the
differential between the benchmark price for oil and natural gas and the
wellhead price we receive. These fluctuations could have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows
by decreasing the proceeds we receive for our oil and natural gas production in
comparison to what we would receive if not for the
differential.
The
natural gas and oil business involves numerous uncertainties and operating risks
that can prevent us from realizing profits and can cause substantial
losses.
Our
development, exploitation and exploration activities may be unsuccessful for
many reasons, including weather, cost overruns, equipment shortages and
mechanical difficulties. Moreover, the successful drilling of a natural gas and
oil well does not ensure a profit on investment. A variety of factors, both
geological and market-related, can cause a well to become uneconomical or only
marginally economical. In addition to their cost, unsuccessful wells can hurt
our efforts to replace reserves.
The
natural gas and oil business involves a variety of operating risks,
including:
|
·
|
unexpected
operational events and/or
conditions;
|
|
·
|
unusual
or unexpected geological
formations;
|
|
·
|
reductions
in natural gas and oil prices;
|
|
·
|
limitations
in the market for oil and natural
gas;
|
|
·
|
adverse
weather conditions;
|
|
·
|
facility
or equipment malfunctions;
|
|
·
|
natural
gas and oil quality issues;
|
|
·
|
pipe,
casing, cement or pipeline
failures;
|
|
·
|
fires,
explosions, blowouts, surface cratering, pollution and other risks or
accidents;
|
|
·
|
environmental
hazards, such as natural gas leaks, oil spills, pipeline ruptures and
discharges of toxic gases;
|
|
·
|
compliance
with environmental and other governmental requirements;
and
|
|
·
|
uncontrollable
flows of oil, natural gas or well
fluids.
|
If we
experience any of these problems, it could affect well bores, gathering systems
and processing facilities, which could adversely affect our ability to conduct
operations. We could also incur substantial losses as a result of:
|
·
|
injury
or loss of life;
|
|
·
|
severe
damage to and destruction of property, natural resources and
equipment;
|
|
·
|
pollution
and other environmental damage;
|
|
·
|
clean-up
responsibilities;
|
|
·
|
regulatory
investigation and penalties;
|
|
·
|
suspension
of our operations; and
|
|
·
|
repairs
to resume operations.
|
Because
we use third-party drilling contractors to drill our wells, we may not realize
the full benefit of worker compensation laws in dealing with their employees.
Our insurance does not protect us against all operational risks. We do not carry
business interruption insurance at levels that would provide enough funds for us
to continue operating without access to other funds. For some risks, we may not
obtain insurance if we believe the cost of available insurance is excessive
relative to the risks presented. In addition, pollution and environmental risks
generally are not fully insurable. If a significant accident or other event
occurs and is not fully covered by insurance, it could impact our operations
enough to force us to cease our operations.
Drilling
wells is speculative, often involving significant costs that may be more than
our estimates, and may not result in any addition to our production or reserves.
Any material inaccuracies in drilling costs, estimates or underlying assumptions
will materially affect our business.
Developing
and exploring for natural gas and oil involves a high degree of operational and
financial risk, which precludes definitive statements as to the time required
and costs involved in reaching certain objectives. The budgeted costs of
drilling, completing and operating wells are often exceeded and can increase
significantly when drilling costs rise due to a tightening in the supply of
various types of oilfield equipment and related services. Drilling may be
unsuccessful for many reasons, including geological conditions, weather, cost
overruns, equipment shortages and mechanical difficulties. Moreover, the
successful drilling of a natural gas or oil well does not ensure a profit on
investment. Exploratory wells bear a much greater risk of loss than development
wells. Substantially all of our wells drilled through March 31, 2010 have
been development wells. A variety of factors, both geological and
market-related, can cause a well to become uneconomical or only marginally
economic. Our initial drilling and development sites, and any potential
additional sites that may be developed, require significant additional
exploration and development, regulatory approval and commitments of resources
prior to commercial development. If our actual drilling and development costs
are significantly more than our estimated costs, we may not be able to continue
our business operations as proposed and would be forced to modify our plan
of operation.
Development
of our reserves, when established, may not occur as scheduled and the actual
results may not be as anticipated. Drilling activity and lack of access to
economically acceptable capital may result in downward adjustments in reserves
or higher than anticipated costs. Our estimates will be based on various
assumptions, including assumptions over which we have control and assumptions
required by the SEC relating to natural gas and oil prices, drilling and
operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds. We
have control over our operations that affect, among other things, acquisitions
and dispositions of properties, availability of funds, use of applicable
technologies, hydrocarbon recovery efficiency, drainage volume and production
decline rates that are part of these estimates and assumptions and any variance
in our operations that affects these items within our control may have a
material effect on reserves. The process of estimating our natural gas and
oil reserves is extremely complex, and requires significant decisions and
assumptions in the evaluation of available geological, geophysical, engineering
and economic data for each reservoir. Our estimates may not be reliable enough
to allow us to be successful in our intended business operations. Our actual
production, revenues, taxes, development expenditures and operating expenses
will likely vary from those anticipated. These variances may be
material.
Unless
we replace our oil and natural gas reserves, our reserves and production will
decline, which would adversely affect our cash flows and income.
Unless we
conduct successful development, exploitation and exploration activities or
acquire properties containing proved reserves, our proved reserves will decline
as those reserves are produced. Producing oil and natural gas reservoirs
generally are characterized by declining production rates that vary depending
upon reservoir characteristics and other factors. Our future oil and natural gas
reserves and production, and, therefore our cash flow and income, are highly
dependent on our success in efficiently developing and exploiting our current
reserves and economically finding or acquiring additional recoverable reserves.
We may be unable to make such acquisitions because we are:
|
·
|
unable
to identify attractive acquisition candidates or negotiate acceptable
purchase contracts with them;
|
|
·
|
unable
to obtain financing for these acquisitions on economically acceptable
terms; or
|
If we are
unable to develop, exploit, find or acquire additional reserves to replace our
current and future production, our cash flow and income will decline as
production declines, until our existing properties would be incapable of
sustaining commercial production.
A
significant portion of our potential future reserves and our business plan
depend upon secondary recovery techniques to establish production. There are
significant risks associated with such techniques.
We
anticipate that a significant portion of our future reserves and our business
plan will be associated with secondary recovery projects that are either in the
early stage of implementation or are scheduled for implementation subject to
availability of capital. We anticipate that secondary recovery will affect our
reserves and our business plan, and the exact project initiation dates and, by
the very nature of waterflood operations, the exact completion dates of such
projects are uncertain. In addition, the reserves and our business plan
associated with these secondary recovery projects, as with any reserves, are
estimates only, as the success of any development project, including these
waterflood projects, cannot be ascertained in advance. If we are not successful
in developing a significant portion of our reserves associated with secondary
recovery methods, then the project may be uneconomic or generate less cash flow
and reserves than we had estimated prior to investing the capital. Risks
associated with secondary recovery techniques include, but are not limited to,
the following:
|
·
|
higher
than projected operating costs;
|
|
·
|
lower-than-expected
production;

|
If any of
these risks occur, it could adversely affect our financial condition or results
of operations.
Any
acquisitions we complete are subject to considerable risk.
Even when
we make acquisitions that we believe are good for our business, any acquisition
involves potential risks, including, among other things:
|
·
|
the
validity of our assumptions about reserves, future production, revenues
and costs, including synergies;
|
|
·
|
an
inability to integrate successfully the businesses we
acquire;
|
|
·
|
a
decrease in our liquidity by using our available cash or borrowing
capacity to finance acquisitions;
|
|
·
|
a
significant increase in our interest expense or financial leverage if we
incur additional debt to finance
acquisitions;

|
Our
decision to acquire a property will depend in part on the evaluation of data
obtained from production reports and engineering studies, geophysical and
geological analyses and seismic and other information, the results of which are
often incomplete or inconclusive.
Our
reviews of acquired properties can be inherently incomplete because it is not
always feasible to perform an in-depth review of the individual properties
involved in each acquisition. Even a detailed review of records and properties
may not necessarily reveal existing or potential problems, nor will it permit a
buyer to become sufficiently familiar with the properties to assess fully their
deficiencies and potential. Inspections may not always be performed on every
well, and environmental problems, such as ground water contamination, plugging
or orphaned well liability are not necessarily observable even when an
inspection is undertaken.
We
must obtain governmental permits and approvals for drilling operations, which
can result in delays in our operations, be a costly and time consuming process,
and result in restrictions on our operations.
Regulatory
authorities exercise considerable discretion in the timing and scope of permit
issuances in the region in which we operate. Compliance with the requirements
imposed by these authorities can be costly and time consuming and may result in
delays in the commencement or continuation of our exploration or production
operations and/or fines. Regulatory or legal actions in the future may
materially interfere with our operations or otherwise have a material adverse
effect on us. In addition, we are often required to prepare and present to
federal, state or local authorities data pertaining to the effect or impact that
a proposed project may have on the environment, threatened and endangered
species, and cultural and archaeological artifacts. Accordingly, the permits we
need may not be issued, or if issued, may not be issued in a timely fashion, or
may involve requirements that restrict our ability to conduct our operations or
to do so profitably.
Due
to our lack of geographic diversification, adverse developments in our operating
areas would materially affect our business.
We
currently only lease and operate oil and natural gas properties located in
Eastern Kansas. As a result of this concentration, we may be disproportionately
exposed to the impact of delays or interruptions of production from these
properties caused by significant governmental regulation, transportation
capacity constraints, curtailment of production, natural disasters, adverse
weather conditions or other events which impact this area.
We
depend on a small number of customers for all, or a substantial amount of our
sales. If these customers reduce the volumes of oil and natural gas they
purchase from us, our revenue and cash available for distribution will decline
to the extent we are not able to find new customers for our
production.
We have
contracted with Coffeyville for the sale of all of our oil through March 2011 It
is not likely that there will be a large pool of available purchasers. If a key
purchaser were to reduce the volume of oil or natural gas it purchases from us,
our revenue and cash available for operations will decline to the extent we are
not able to find new customers to purchase our production at equivalent
prices.
We
are not the operator of some of our properties and we have limited control over
the activities on those properties.
We are
not the operator on our Black Oaks Project. We have only limited ability to
influence or control the operation or future development of the Black Oaks
Project or the amount of capital expenditures that we can fund with respect to
it. In the case of the Black Oaks Project, our dependence on the operator, Haas
Petroleum, limits our ability to influence or control the operation or future
development of the project. Such limitations could materially adversely affect
the realization of our targeted returns on capital related to exploration,
drilling or production activities and lead to unexpected future
costs.
We
may suffer losses or incur liability for events for which we or the operator of
a property have chosen not to obtain insurance.
Our
operations are subject to hazards and risks inherent in producing and
transporting natural gas and oil, such as fires, natural disasters, explosions,
pipeline ruptures, spills, and acts of terrorism, all of which can result in the
loss of hydrocarbons, environmental pollution, personal injury claims and other
damage to our and others’ properties. As protection against operating hazards,
we maintain insurance coverage against some, but not all, potential losses. In
addition, pollution and environmental risks generally are not fully insurable.
As a result of market conditions, existing insurance policies may not be renewed
and other desirable insurance may not be available on commercially reasonable
terms, if at all. The occurrence of an event that is not covered, or not fully
covered, by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
Our
hedging activities could result in financial losses or could reduce our
available funds or income and therefore adversely affect our financial
position.
To
achieve more predictable cash flow and to reduce our exposure to adverse
fluctuations in the prices of oil and natural gas, we have entered into
derivative arrangements from April 1, 2008 until December 31, 2013 for between
30 and 130 barrels of oil per day that could result in both realized and
unrealized hedging losses. As of March 31, 2010 we had incurred realized and
unrealized losses of approximately 3.911 million. The extent of our commodity
price exposure is related largely to the effectiveness and scope of our
derivative activities. For example, the derivative instruments we may utilize
may be based on posted market prices, which may differ significantly from the
actual crude oil, natural gas and NGL prices we realize in our
operations.
Our
actual future production may be significantly higher or lower than we estimate
at the time we enter into derivative transactions for such period. If the actual
amount is higher than we estimate, we will have greater commodity price exposure
than we intended. If the actual amount is lower than the nominal amount that is
subject to our derivative financial instruments, we might be forced to satisfy
all or a portion of our derivative transactions without the benefit of the cash
flow from our sale or purchase of the underlying physical commodity, resulting
in a substantial diminution of our liquidity. As a result of these factors, our
derivative activities may not be as effective as we intend in reducing the
volatility of our cash flows, and in certain circumstances may actually increase
the volatility of our cash flows. In addition, while we believe our existing
derivative activities are with creditworthy counterparties (Coffeyville
Resources and BP), continued deterioration in the credit markets may cause a
counterparty not to perform its obligation under the applicable derivative
instrument or impact their willingness to enter into future transactions with
us.
Our
business depends in part on gathering and transportation facilities owned by
others. Any limitation in the availability of those facilities could interfere
with our ability to market our oil and natural gas production and could harm our
business.
The
marketability of our oil and natural gas production will depend in a very large
part on the availability, proximity and capacity of pipelines, oil and natural
gas gathering systems and processing facilities. The amount of oil and natural
gas that can be produced and sold is subject to curtailment in certain
circumstances, such as pipeline interruptions due to scheduled and unscheduled
maintenance, excessive pressure, physical damage or lack of available capacity
on such systems. The curtailments arising from these and similar circumstances
may last from a few days to several months. In many cases, we will be provided
only with limited, if any, notice as to when these circumstances will arise and
their duration. Any significant curtailment in gathering system or pipeline
capacity could significantly reduce our ability to market our oil and natural
gas production and could materially harm our business.
Cost
and availability of drilling rigs, equipment, supplies, personnel and other
services could adversely affect our ability to execute on a timely basis our
development, exploitation and exploration plans.
Shortages
or an increase in cost of drilling rigs, equipment, supplies or personnel could
delay or interrupt our operations, which could impact our financial condition
and results of operations. Drilling activity in the geographic areas in which we
conduct drilling activities may increase, which would lead to increases in
associated costs, including those related to drilling rigs, equipment, supplies
and personnel and the services and products of other vendors to the industry.
Increased drilling activity in these areas may also decrease the availability of
rigs. Although Haas Petroleum has agreed to provide up to two drilling rigs to
the Black Oaks Project when needed, subject to availability of capital, we do
not have any contracts for drilling rigs and drilling rigs may not be readily
available when we need them. Drilling and other costs may increase further and
necessary equipment and services may not be available to us at economical
prices.
Our
exposure to possible leasehold defects and potential title failure could
materially adversely impact our ability to conduct drilling
operations.
We obtain
the right and access to properties for drilling by obtaining oil and natural gas
leases either directly from the hydrocarbon owner, or through a third party that
owns the lease. The leases may be taken or assigned to us without title
insurance. There is a risk of title failure with respect to such leases, and
such title failures could materially adversely impact our business by causing us
to be unable to access properties to conduct drilling operations.
Our
reserves are subject to the risk of depletion because many of our leases are in
mature fields that have produced large quantities of oil and natural gas to
date.
Our
operations are located in established fields in Eastern Kansas. As a result,
many of our leases are in, or directly offset, areas that have produced large
quantities of oil and natural gas to date. As such, our reserves may
be partially or completely depleted by offsetting wells or previously drilled
wells, which could significantly harm our business.
Our
lease ownership may be diluted due to financing strategies we may employ in the
future due to our lack of capital.
To
accelerate our development efforts we plan to take on working interest partners
who will contribute to the costs of drilling and completion and then share in
revenues derived from production. In addition, we may in the future, due to a
lack of capital or other strategic reasons, establish joint venture partnerships
or farm out all or part of our development efforts. These economic strategies
may have a dilutive effect on our lease ownership and could significantly reduce
our operating revenues.
We
are subject to complex laws and regulations, including environmental
regulations, which can adversely affect the cost, manner or feasibility of doing
business.
Development,
production and sale of natural gas and oil in the United States are subject to
extensive laws and regulations, including environmental laws and regulations. We
may be required to make large expenditures to comply with environmental and
other governmental regulations. Matters subject to regulation include, but are
not limited to:
|
·
|
location
and density of wells;
|
|
·
|
the
handling of drilling fluids and obtaining discharge permits for drilling
operations;
|
|
·
|
accounting
for and payment of royalties on production from state, federal and Indian
lands;
|
|
·
|
bonds
for ownership, development and production of natural gas and oil
properties;
|
|
·
|
transportation
of natural gas and oil by
pipelines;
|
|
·
|
operation
of wells and reports concerning operations;
and
|
Under
these laws and regulations, we could be liable for personal injuries, property
damage, oil spills, discharge of hazardous materials, remediation and clean-up
costs and other environmental damages. Failure to comply with these laws and
regulations also may result in the suspension or termination of our operations
and subject us to administrative, civil and criminal penalties. Moreover, these
laws and regulations could change in ways that substantially increase our costs.
Accordingly, any of these liabilities, penalties, suspensions, terminations or
regulatory changes could materially adversely affect our financial condition and
results of operations enough to possibly force us to cease our business
operations.
Our
operations may expose us to significant costs and liabilities with respect to
environmental, operational safety and other matters.
We may
incur significant costs and liabilities as a result of environmental and safety
requirements applicable to our oil and natural gas exploration and production
activities. We may also be exposed to the risk of costs associated with Kansas
Corporation Commission requirements to plug orphaned and abandoned wells on our
oil and natural gas leases from wells previously drilled by third parties. In
addition, we may indemnify sellers or lessors of oil and natural gas properties
for environmental liabilities they or their predecessors may have created. These
costs and liabilities could arise under a wide range of federal, state and local
environmental and safety laws and regulations, including regulations and
enforcement policies, which have tended to become increasingly strict over time.
Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in the assessment
of administrative, civil and criminal penalties, imposition of cleanup and site
restoration costs, liens and to a lesser extent, issuance of injunctions to
limit or cease operations. In addition, claims for damages to persons or
property may result from environmental and other impacts of our
operations.
Strict,
joint and several liability may be imposed under certain environmental laws,
which could cause us to become liable for the conduct of others or for
consequences of our own actions that were in compliance with all applicable laws
at the time those actions were taken. New laws, regulations or enforcement
policies could be more stringent and impose unforeseen liabilities or
significantly increase compliance costs. If we are not able to recover the
resulting costs through insurance or increased revenues, our ability to operate
effectively could be adversely affected.
Our
facilities and activities could be subject to regulation by the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission or the Department of Transportation, which could take
actions that could result in a material adverse effect on our financial
condition.
Although
it is anticipated that our natural gas gathering systems will be exempt from
FERC and DOT regulation, any revisions to this understanding may affect our
rights, liabilities, and access to midstream or interstate natural gas
transportation, which could have a material adverse effect on our
operations and financial condition. In addition, the cost of compliance with any
revisions to FERC or DOT rules, regulations or requirements could be substantial
and could adversely affect our ability to operate in an economic manner.
Additional FERC and DOT rules and legislation pertaining to matters that could
affect our operations are considered and adopted from time to time. We cannot
predict what effect, if any, such regulatory changes and legislation might have
on our operations, but we could be required to incur additional capital
expenditures and increased costs.
Although
our natural gas sales activities are not currently projected to be subject to
rate regulation by FERC, if FERC finds that in connection with making sales in
the future, we (i) failed to comply with any applicable FERC administered
statutes, rules, regulations or orders, (ii) engaged in certain fraudulent acts,
or (iii) engaged in market manipulation, we could be subject to substantial
penalties and fines of up to $1.0 million per day per
violation.
We
operate in a highly competitive environment and our competitors may have greater
resources than us.
The
natural gas and oil industry is intensely competitive and we compete with other
companies, many of which are larger and have greater financial, technological,
human and other resources. Many of these companies not only explore for and
produce crude oil and natural gas but also carry on refining operations and
market petroleum and other products on a regional, national or worldwide basis.
Such companies may be able to pay more for productive natural gas and oil
properties and exploratory prospects or define, evaluate, bid for and purchase a
greater number of properties and prospects than our financial or human resources
permit. In addition, such companies may have a greater ability to continue
exploration activities during periods of low oil and natural gas market prices.
Our ability to acquire additional properties and to discover reserves in the
future will be dependent upon our ability to evaluate and select suitable
properties and to consummate transactions in a highly competitive environment.
If we are unable to compete, our operating results and financial position may be
adversely affected.
We
may incur substantial write-downs of the carrying value of our natural gas and
oil properties, which would adversely impact our earnings.
We review
the carrying value of our natural gas and oil properties under the full-cost
accounting rules of the SEC on a quarterly basis. This quarterly review is
referred to as a ceiling test. Under the ceiling test, capitalized costs, less
accumulated amortization and related deferred income taxes, may not exceed an
amount equal to the sum of the present value of estimated future net revenues
(adjusted for cash flow hedges) less estimated future expenditures to be
incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves, less any related
income tax effects. In calculating future net revenues, current prices and costs
used are those as of the end of the appropriate quarterly period. Such prices
are utilized except where different prices are fixed and determinable from
applicable contracts for the remaining term of those contracts, including the
effects of derivatives qualifying as cash flow hedges. Two primary factors
impacting this test are reserve levels and current prices, and their associated
impact on the present value of estimated future net revenues. Revisions to
estimates of natural gas and oil reserves and/or an increase or decrease in
prices can have a material impact on the present value of estimated future net
revenues. Any excess of the net book value, less deferred income taxes, is
generally written off as an expense. Under SEC regulations, the excess above the
ceiling is not expensed (or is reduced) if, subsequent to the end of the period,
but prior to the release of the financial statements, natural gas and oil prices
increase sufficiently such that an excess above the ceiling would have been
eliminated (or reduced) if the increased prices were used in the
calculations.
As
previously announced, in December 2008, the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”) issued new regulations for oil and gas reserve reporting which go into
effect effective for fiscal years ending on or after December 31,
2009. One of the key elements of the new regulations relate to the
commodity prices which are used to calculate reserves and their present
value. The new regulations provide for disclosure of oil and gas
reserves evaluated using annual average prices based on the prices in effect on
the first day of each month rather than the current regulations which utilize
commodity prices on the last day of the year.
There was
no impairment for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. We recorded an
impairment of $4,777,723 during the fiscal year ended March 31,
2009 primarily attributable to lower prices for both oil and natural gas at
December 31, 2009.
Risks Associated with our
Debt Financing
Significant
and prolonged declines in commodity prices may negatively impact our borrowing
base and our ability to borrow overall.
Our
borrowing base, which is based on our oil and gas reserves and is subject to
review and adjustment on a semi-annual basis and other interim adjustments, has
been and may be further reduced when it is reviewed. A reduction
in our base results in a “loan excess” which is required to be eliminated
through payment of a portion of the loan and/or cash collateralization of
Letters of Credit obligations; or adding properties to the borrowing base
sufficient to offset the “loan excess”. A reduction in our borrowing
base or the ability to borrow under our Credit Facility, combined with a
reduction in cash flow from operations resulting from a decline in oil prices,
may require us to further reduce our capital expenditures and our operating
activities.
Until
we repay the full amount of our outstanding debentures and Credit Facility, we
may continue to have substantial indebtedness, which is secured by substantially
all of our assets.
On March
31, 2010, $2.47 million in debentures and approximately $6.7 million of
bank loans were outstanding. Under a default situation with respect to the
debentures or other secured debt, the lenders may enforce their rights as a
secured party and we may lose all or a portion of our assets or be forced to
materially reduce our business activities.
Our
substantial indebtedness could make it more difficult for us to fulfill our
obligations under our Credit Facility and our debentures and, therefore,
adversely affect our business.
On
July 3, 2008, we entered into a three-year, Senior Secured Credit Facility
providing for aggregate borrowings of up to $50 million. As
of March 31, 2010, we had total indebtedness of $10.1 million, including
$6.691 million of borrowings under the Credit Facility and $2.47 million of
remaining debentures, as well as other notes payable totaling approximately
$109,000. We had no outstanding letters of credit under the new facility on
March 31, 2010. Our substantial indebtedness, and the related interest expense,
could have important consequences to us, including:
|
·
|
limiting
our ability to borrow additional amounts for working capital, capital
expenditures, debt service requirements, execution of our business
strategy, or other general corporate
purposes;
|
|
·
|
being
forced to use cash flow to reduce our outstanding balance as a result of
an unfavorable borrowing base
redetermination;
|
|
·
|
limiting
our ability to use operating cash flow in other areas of our business
because we must dedicate a substantial portion of these funds to service
our indebtedness;
|
|
·
|
increasing
our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry
conditions;
|
|
·
|
placing
us at a competitive disadvantage as compared to our competitors that have
less leverage;
|
|
·
|
limiting
our ability to capitalize on business opportunities and to react to
competitive pressures and changes in government
regulation;
|
|
·
|
limiting
our ability to, or increasing the cost of, refinancing our
indebtedness; and
|
|
·
|
limiting
our ability to enter into marketing, hedging, optimization and trading
transactions by reducing the number of counterparties with whom we can
enter into such transactions as well as the volume of those
transactions.
|
The
covenants in our Credit Facility and debentures impose significant operating and
financial restrictions on us.
The
Credit Facility and our debentures impose significant operating and financial
restrictions on us. These restrictions limit our ability and the ability of our
subsidiaries, among other things, to:
|
·
|
incur
additional indebtedness and provide additional
guarantees;
|
|
·
|
pay
dividends and make other restricted
payments;
|
|
·
|
create
or permit certain liens;
|
|
·
|
use
the proceeds from the sales of our oil and natural gas
properties;
|
|
·
|
use
the proceeds from the unwinding of certain financial
hedges;
|
|
·
|
engage
in certain transactions with affiliates;
and
|
|
·
|
consolidate,
merge, sell or transfer all or substantially all of our assets or the
assets of our subsidiaries.
|
The
Credit Facility and our debentures also contain various affirmative covenants
with which we are required to comply. We were not in compliance with three
covenants at March 31, 2010. We may be unable to comply with some or all of
these covenants in the future as well. If we do not comply with these covenants
and are unable to obtain waivers from our lenders, we would be unable to make
additional borrowings under these facilities, our indebtedness under these
agreements would be in default and could be accelerated by our
lenders. In addition, it could cause a cross-default under our other
indebtedness, including our debentures. If our indebtedness is accelerated, we
may not be able to repay our indebtedness or borrow sufficient funds to
refinance it. In addition, if we incur additional indebtedness in the future, we
may be subject to additional covenants, which may be more restrictive than those
to which we are currently subject.
Risks Associated with our
Common Stock
We
have derivative securities currently outstanding and we may issue derivative
securities in the future. Exercise of the derivatives will cause dilution to
existing and new shareholders.
The
exercise of our outstanding warrants, and the conversion of a convertible note,
will cause additional shares of common stock to be issued, resulting in dilution
to our existing and future common stockholders
We
have the ability to issue additional shares of our common stock and shares of
preferred stock without asking for stockholder approval, which could cause your
investment to be diluted.
Our
Articles of Incorporation authorizes the Board of Directors to issue up to
100,000,000 shares of common stock and 10,000,000 shares of preferred
stock. The power of the Board of Directors to issue shares of common
stock, preferred stock or warrants or options to purchase shares of common stock
or preferred stock is generally not subject to shareholder
approval. Accordingly, any additional issuance of our common stock,
or preferred stock that may be convertible into common stock, or debt
instruments that may be convertible into common or preferred stock, may have the
effect of diluting one’s investment.
Our
common stock is traded on an illiquid market, making it difficult for investors
to sell their shares.
Our
common stock trades on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol
“ENRJ,” but trading has been minimal. Therefore, the market for our common stock
is limited. The trading price of our common stock could be subject to wide
fluctuations. Investors may not be able to purchase additional shares or sell
their shares within the time frame or at a price they desire.
The
price of our common stock may be volatile and you may not be able to resell your
shares at a favorable price.
Regardless
of whether an active trading market for our common stock develops, the market
price of our common stock may be volatile and you may not be able to resell your
shares at or above the price you paid for such shares. The following factors
could affect our stock price:
|
·
|
our
operating and financial performance and
prospects;
|
|
·
|
quarterly
variations in the rate of growth of our financial indicators, such as net
income or loss per share, net income or loss and
revenues;
|
|
·
|
changes
in revenue or earnings estimates or publication of research reports by
analysts about us or the exploration and production
industry;
|
|
·
|
potentially
limited liquidity;
|
|
·
|
actual
or anticipated variations in our reserve estimates and quarterly operating
results;
|
|
·
|
changes
in natural gas and oil prices;
|
|
·
|
sales
of our common stock by significant stockholders and future issuances of
our common stock;
|
|
·
|
increases
in our cost of capital;
|
|
·
|
changes
in applicable laws or regulations, court rulings and enforcement and legal
actions;
|
|
·
|
commencement
of or involvement in litigation;
|
|
·
|
changes
in market valuations of similar
companies;
|
|
·
|
additions
or departures of key management
personnel;
|
|
·
|
general
market conditions, including fluctuations in and the occurrence of events
or trends affecting the price of natural gas and oil;
and
|
|
·
|
domestic
and international economic, legal and regulatory factors unrelated to our
performance.
|
Our
articles of incorporation, bylaws and Nevada Law contain provisions that could
discourage an acquisition or change of control of us.
Our
articles of incorporation authorize our board of directors to issue preferred
stock and common stock without stockholder approval. If our board of directors
elects to issue preferred stock, it could be more difficult for a third party to
acquire control of us. In addition, provisions of the articles of incorporation
and bylaws could also make it more difficult for a third party to acquire
control of us. In addition, Nevada’s “Combination with Interested Stockholders’
Statute” and its “Control Share Acquisition Statute” may have the effect in the
future of delaying or making it more difficult to effect a change in control of
us.
These
statutory anti-takeover measures may have certain negative consequences,
including an effect on the ability of our stockholders or other individuals to
(i) change the composition of the incumbent board of directors; (ii) benefit
from certain transactions which are opposed by the incumbent board of directors;
and (iii) make a tender offer or attempt to gain control of us, even if such
attempt were beneficial to us and our stockholders. Since such measures may also
discourage the accumulations of large blocks of our common stock by purchasers
whose objective is to seek control of us or have such common stock repurchased
by us or other persons at a premium, these measures could also depress the
market price of our common stock. Accordingly, our stockholders may be deprived
of certain opportunities to realize the “control premium” associated with
take-over attempts.
We
have no plans to pay dividends on our common stock. You may not receive funds
without selling your stock.
We do not
anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable
future. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the
expansion of our business. Our future dividend policy is within the discretion
of our board of directors and will depend upon various factors, including our
business, financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements,
investment opportunities and restrictions imposed by our debentures and Credit
Facility.
We
may issue shares of preferred stock with greater rights than our common
stock.
Although
we have no current plans, arrangements, understandings or agreements to issue
any preferred stock, our articles of incorporation authorizes our board of
directors to issue one or more series of preferred stock and set the terms of
the preferred stock without seeking any further approval from our stockholders.
Any preferred stock that is issued may rank ahead of our common stock, with
respect to dividends, liquidation rights and voting rights, among other
things.
We
have derivative securities currently outstanding. Exercise of these derivatives
will cause dilution to existing and new stockholders.
As of
March 31, 2010, we had warrants to purchase approximately 75,000 shares of
common stock outstanding in addition to 2,500 shares issuable upon conversion of
a convertible note. The exercise of our outstanding options and warrants, and
the conversion of the note, will cause additional shares of common stock to be
issued, resulting in dilution to our existing common stockholders.
Because
our common stock is deemed a low-priced “Penny” stock, an investment in our
common stock should be considered high risk and subject to marketability
restrictions.
Our
common stock is currently deemed to be a penny stock, as defined in Rule 3a51-1
under the Securities Exchange Act, which may make it more difficult for
investors to liquidate their investment even if and when a market develops for
the common stock. Until the trading price of the common stock consistently
trades above $5.00 per share, if ever, trading in the common stock may be
subject to the penny stock rules of the Securities Exchange Act specified in
rules 15g-1 through 15g-10. Those rules require broker-dealers, before effecting
transactions in any penny stock, to:
|
·
|
Deliver
to the customer, and obtain a written receipt for, a disclosure
document;
|
|
·
|
Disclose
certain price information about the
stock;
|
|
·

Consequently,
the penny stock rules may restrict the ability or willingness of broker-dealers
to sell the common stock and may affect the ability of holders to sell their
common stock in the secondary market and the price at which such holders can
sell any such securities. These additional procedures could also limit our ability to raise
additional capital in the future.
If
we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed
from the OTC Bulletin Board, which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to
sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in
the secondary market.
Companies
trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, such as us, must be reporting issuers under
Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be
current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation
privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board. More specifically, FINRA has enacted
Rule 6530, which determines eligibility of issuers quoted on the OTC Bulletin
Board by requiring an issuer to be current in its filings with the
Commission. Pursuant to Rule 6530(e), if we file our reports late with the
Commission three times in a two-year period or our securities are removed from
the OTC Bulletin Board for failure to timely file twice in a two-year period
then we will be ineligible for quotation on the OTC Bulletin
Board. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be
severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell
our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the
secondary market.
FINRA
sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell
our stock.
In
addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules
that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer
must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for
that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their
non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to
obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment
objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, the
FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced
securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA
requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their
customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our
stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.
Additional Risks and
Uncertainties
We are an
oil and natural gas acquisition, exploration and development company. If any of
the risks that we face actually occur, irrespective of whether those risks are
described in this section or elsewhere in this report, our business, financial
condition and operating results could be materially adversely
affected.

as of the date of this report, there are no material pending legal proceedings
to which we are a party or to which any of our property is subject.

PRICE RANGE OF COMMON
STOCK
Our
common stock currently trades on the OTC:BB under the symbol “ENRJ.” Our common
stock has traded infrequently on the OTC:BB, which limits our ability to locate
accurate high and low bid prices for each quarter within the last two fiscal
years. Therefore, the following table lists the quotations for the high and low
bid prices as reported on Yahoo! Finance for fiscal years 2009 and 2010. The
quotations reflect inter-dealer prices without retail mark-up, markdown, or
commissions and may not represent actual transactions.

(b)
Holders of Common Stock
As of
July 9, 2010, there were 1,146 holders of record of our common
stock.
(c)
Dividends
We have
never paid or declared any cash dividends on our common stock. We currently
intend to retain any future earnings to finance the growth and development of
our business and we do not expect to pay any cash dividends on our common stock
in the foreseeable future. In addition, we are contractually prohibited by the
terms of our outstanding debt from paying cash dividends on our common stock.
Payment of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of
directors and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations,
capital requirements, restrictions contained in current or future financing
instruments, including the consent of debt holders, if applicable at such
time, and other factors our board of directors deems relevant.
(d)
Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans
2000/2001
Stock Option Plan
The Board of Directors
approved the 2000/2001 Stock Option Plan and our stockholders ratified the plan
on September 25, 2000. The total number of options that can be
granted under the plan is 200,000 shares and all such shares were
previously granted to Mr. Cochennet. On August 3, 2009, we exchanged these
outstanding options for 50,000 shares of our restricted common stock. Therefore,
all 200,000 shares reserved for issuance under this plan are again available for
issuance.
Stock
Incentive Plan
The board
of directors approved the EnerJex Resources, Inc. Stock Option Plan on August 1,
2002 (the “2002-2003 Stock
Option Plan”). Originally, the total number of options that could be
granted under the 2002-2003 Stock Option Plan was not to exceed 400,000 shares.
In September 2007 our stockholders approved a proposal to amend and restate the
2002-2003 Stock Option Plan to increase the number of shares issuable to
1,000,000. On October 14, 2008 our stockholders approved a proposal
to amend and restate the 2002-2003 Stock Option Plan to (i) rename it the
EnerJex Resources, Inc. Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Incentive Plan”), (ii)
increase the maximum number of shares of our common stock that may be issued
under the Stock Incentive Plan from 1,000,000 to 1,250,000, and (iii) add
restricted stock as an eligible award that can be granted under the Stock
Incentive Plan.
We had
previously granted 238,500 options under this plan. On August 3, 2009, we
exchanged all 238,500 outstanding options for 59,700 shares of our restricted
common stock. In addition, we granted 151,750 shares of restricted common stock
under the Stock Incentive Plan to employees for fiscal 2009 bonuses and 59,300
shares to our officers and directors for the prior rescission of stock options
in fiscal 2008.
General
Terms of Plans
Officers
(including officers who are members of the board of directors), directors, and
other employees and consultants and our subsidiaries (if established) will be
eligible to receive awards under the 2000/2001 Stock Option Plan and the Stock
Incentive Plan. A committee of the board of directors will administer the plans
and will determine those persons to whom awards will be granted, the number of
and type of awards to be granted, the provisions applicable to each grant and
the time periods during which the awards may be exercised. No awards may be
granted more than ten years after the date of the adoption of the
plans.
Non-qualified
stock options will be granted by the committee with an option price equal to the
fair market value of the shares of common stock to which the non-qualified stock
option relates on the date of grant. The committee may, in its discretion,
determine to price the non-qualified option at a different price. In no event
may the option price with respect to an incentive stock option granted under the
plans be less than the fair market value of such common stock to which the
incentive stock option relates on the date the incentive stock option is
granted. However the price of an incentive stock option will not be less than
110% of the fair market value per share on the date of the grant in the case of
an individual then owning more than 10% of the total combined voting power of
all classes of stock of the corporation.
Each
option granted under the plans will be exercisable for a term of not more than
ten years after the date of grant. Certain other restrictions will apply in
connection with the plans when some awards may be exercised.
Restricted
stock will have full dividend, voting and other ownership rights, unless
otherwise indicated in the applicable award agreement pursuant to which it is
granted. If any dividends or distributions are paid in shares of
common stock during the restricted period, the applicable award agreement may
provide that such shares will be subject to the same restrictions as the
restricted stock with respect to which they were paid.
These
plans are intended to encourage directors, officers, employees and consultants
to acquire ownership of common stock. The opportunity so provided is intended to
foster in participants a strong incentive to put forth maximum effort for our
continued success and growth, to aid in retaining individuals who put forth such
effort, and to assist in attracting the best available individuals in the
future.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion of our
financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with
our financial statements and the related notes to our financial statements included elsewhere in this
report. In addition to historical financial information, the following
discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks,
uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results and timing of
selected events may differ materially from
those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many

this report.
Overview
Our
principal strategy is to focus on the acquisition of oil and natural gas mineral
leases that have existing production and cash flow. Once acquired, we strive to
implement an accelerated development program utilizing capital resources, a
regional operating focus, an experienced management and technical team, and
enhanced recovery technologies to attempt to increase production and increase
returns for our stockholders. Our oil and natural gas acquisition and
development activities are currently focused in Eastern Kansas.

Oil and
natural gas revenues for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 were
$4,856,027 compared to revenues of $6,436,805 in the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2009. The decrease in revenues is primarily the result of the
lower price per barrel of oil. The average price per barrel we
received for oil sold during the twelve months ended March 31, 2010 was $69.62
compared to $85.67 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2009. Natural gas sales
accounted for less than 1% of the total revenues. There were no natural gas
sales during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 and ended March 31, 2009
respectively.

Direct
operating costs for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 were
$1,833,108 compared to $2,637,333 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009.
The decrease over the prior period results from the operating costs on a greater
number of wells on our existing and acquired oil leases during the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2010. Direct operating costs include pumping, gauging,
pulling, repairs, certain contract labor costs, and other non-capitalized
expenses.
Depreciation, Depletion and
Amortization
Depreciation,
depletion and amortization for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2010 (Restated) was $588,416, compared to $872,230 for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2009. The decrease was primarily a result of lower production.
The rate of depletion was $9.06 per barrel for the fiscal year ended March 31,
2010 (Restated) as compared to $12.02 per barrel for the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2009.
Professional
fees for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 were $561,625 compared to
$1,320,332 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. Payments for services
rendered in connection with acquisition and financing activities, our audit,
legal, and consulting fees are recorded as professional fees and remained
relatively constant over the two fiscal years.
Salaries
for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 were $835,576 compared to $849,340
for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The number of full-time employees
was flat compared to the respective years.
Depreciation
on Other Fixed Assets
Depreciation on other fixed assets
fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 was $47,081 compared to $39,063 for the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2009. The increase was primarily due to
depreciation on fixed assets acquired during the period.
Administrative
expenses for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 were $1,016,484 compared
to $1,392,645 in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The administrative
expenses decreased resulting from less activity in development and exploration
and cost cutting measures.
Impairment
of Oil & Gas Properties
No
impairment was recorded for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010. The
impairment of oil and natural gas properties in the year ended March 31, 2009 of
$4,777,723 represented an impairment through applying the full-cost ceiling test
method. This ceiling test was applied to all of the cost of our oil
and natural gas properties accounted for under the full-cost method that were
subject to amortization at March 31, 2009. We took this impairment
based on the ceiling test results during the quarter ended December 31, 2008,
and was primarily due to depressed commodity prices at the time.
Reserves
Our
estimated total proved PV 10 (present value) of reserves as of March 31, 2010
(Restated) increased to $29.9 million from $10.63 million as of March 31,
2009. Total proved reserves at March 31, 2010 and 2009 increased
approximately 38% to 2.5 million and from 1.3 million barrels of oil
equivalent (BOE), over the year ended March 31, 2009. Further, the PV10
increased dramatically due to the estimated average price of oil at
March 31, 2010 of $62.64 versus $42.65 at March 31, 2009. Of the 2.5
million BOE at March 31, 2010 approximately 30% are proved developed and
approximately 70% are proved undeveloped. The proved developed reserves consist
of proved developed producing (79%) and proved developed non-producing
(21%).
The
following table presents summary information regarding our estimated net proved
reserves as of March 31, 2010. All calculations of estimated net proved reserves
have been made in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, and,
except as otherwise indicated, give no effect to federal or state income taxes.
The estimates of net proved reserves are based on the reserve reports prepared
by Miller and Lents, Ltd., our independent petroleum consultants. For additional
information regarding our reserves, please see Note 13 to our audited financial
statements as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010.

The
following table shows our reconciliation of our PV10 to our standardized
measure of discounted future net cash flows (the most direct comparable
measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP). PV10 is our
estimate of the present value of future net revenues from estimated proved
natural gas reserves after deducting estimated production and ad valorem
taxes, future capital costs and operating expenses, but before deducting
any estimates of future income taxes. The estimated future net revenues
are discounted at an annual rate of 10% to determine their “present
value.” We believe PV10 to be an important measure for evaluating the
relative significance of our oil and natural gas properties and that the
presentation of the non-GAAP financial measure of PV10 provides useful
information to investors because it is widely used by professional
analysts and sophisticated investors in evaluating oil and gas companies.
Because there are many unique factors that can impact an individual
company when estimating the amount of future income taxes to be paid, we
believe the use of a pre-tax measure is valuable for evaluating our
company. We believe that most other companies in the oil and gas industry
calculate PV10 on the same basis. PV10 should not be considered as an
alternative to the standardized measure of discounted future net cash
flows as computed under GAAP.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Liquidity
is a measure of a company’s ability to meet potential cash requirements. We have
historically met our capital requirements through debt financing, revenues from
operations and the issuance of equity securities. We have classified
$6,691,000 of the borrowings outstanding under our Credit Facility as a current
liability. As we may be unable to provide the necessary
liquidity we need by the revenues generated from our net interests in our oil
and natural gas production at current commodity prices, we are exploring
strategic initiative and JV partnerships, as well as sales of reserves in our
existing properties to finance our operations and to service our debt
obligations. Further, in the future we may access funds through the sale of
shares under the SEDA with Paladin.

Senior
Secured Credit Facility
On July
3, 2008, EnerJex Kansas, and DD Energy entered into a three-year $50 million
Senior Secured Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Texas Capital Bank,
N.A (“TCB”). Borrowings under the Credit Facility will be subject to
a borrowing base limitation based on our current proved oil and gas reserves and
will be subject to semi-annual redeterminations. A borrowing base
redetermination was completed by Texas Capital Bank effective January 1,
2010. The borrowing base was determined to be $6,746,000 and called
for $55,000 Monthly Borrowing Base Reductions (“MBBR”) beginning February 1,
2010.
The
Credit Facility is secured by a lien on substantially all assets of the Company
and its subsidiaries. The Credit Facility has a term of three years, and all
principal amounts, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, will be due
and payable in full on July 3, 2011. The Credit Facility also
provides for the issuance of letters-of-credit up to a $750,000 sub-limit under
the borrowing base and up to an additional $2.25 million limit not subject to
the borrowing base to support our hedging program. We have borrowed
all of our available borrowing base as of March 31, 2010.
Advances
under the Credit Facility will be in the form of either base rate loans or
Eurodollar loans. The interest rate on the base rate loans fluctuates based upon
the higher of (1) the lender’s “prime rate” and (2) the Federal Funds rate plus
0.50%, plus, in either case, a margin of between 0.0% and 0.5% depending on the
percent of the borrowing base utilized at the time of the credit extension, but
in no event shall be less than five percent (5.0%). The interest rate on the
Eurodollar loans fluctuates based upon the applicable LIBOR rate, plus a margin
of 2.25% to 2.75% depending on the percent of the borrowing base utilized at the
time of the credit extension, but in no event shall be less than five percent
(5.0%). Eurodollar loans may be based upon one, two, three and six month LIBOR
options, except that beginning March 30, 2009 and continuing through the date of
this report, TCB has suspended all LIBOR based funding with maturities less than
90 days due to the extreme volatility in the interest rate market and the
unprecedented spread between the 90 day LIBOR and the shorter term LIBOR
options. A commitment fee of 0.375% on the unused portion of the borrowing base
will accrue, and be payable quarterly in arrears. There was no
commitment fee due at March 31, 2010.
The
Credit Facility includes usual and customary affirmative covenants for credit
facilities of this type and size, as well as customary negative covenants,
including, among others, limitations on liens, mergers, asset sales or
dispositions, payments of dividends, incurrence of additional indebtedness, and
investments. The Credit Facility also requires that we, at the end of each
fiscal quarter beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2008, maintain a
minimum current assets to current liabilities ratio and a minimum ratio of
EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to
interest expense and at the end of each fiscal quarter beginning with the
quarter ended September 30, 2008 to maintain a minimum ratio of EBITDA to senior
funded debt.
The
Credit Facility was amended August 18, 2009 to implement a minimum interest rate
of five (5.0%) and establish minimum volumes to be hedged of not less than
seventy-five percent (75%) of the proved developed producing reserves
attributable to our interest in the borrowing base oil and gas properties
projected to be produced. The Credit Facility was further amended January
13, 2010 to modify the senior funded debt to EBITDA ratio on a quarterly basis
beginning with the quarter ended December 31, 2009 and to modify the
annualization of the interest coverage ratio, also beginning with the quarter
ended December 31, 2009. The senior funded debt to EBITDA ratio
allowed is 6.25:1.00 at December 31, 2009; 5.75:1.00 at March 31, 2010;
5.25:1.00 at June 30, 2010; and 4.75:1.00 at September 30, 2010; and
4.25:1.00 for all quarters ending after September 30, 2010. We were not in
compliance the three technical covenants of the Credit Facility at March 31,
2010, however, we were current with principal and interest and we have requested
a waiver of this technical default from TCB. There can be no
assurance that TCB will grant us a waiver. As a result, we have classified the
entire outstanding balance due under the Credit Facility as a current
liability.
Additionally,
TCB and the holders of the debentures entered into a Subordination Agreement
whereby the debentures issued on June 21, 2007 are subordinated to the Credit
Facility.
Debentures
On April
11, 2007, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, Registration Rights
Agreements, Senior Secured Debentures, a Pledge and Security Agreement, a
Secured Guaranty, and other related agreements (the “Financing Agreements”) with
the “Buyers” of a new series of senior secured debentures (the “Debentures”).
Under the terms of the Financing Agreements, we agreed to sell Debentures for a
total purchase price of $9.0 million. In connection with the purchase, we agreed
to issue to the Buyers a total of 1,800,000 shares. The first closing occurred
on April 12, 2007 with a total of $6.3 million in Debentures being sold and the
remaining $2.7 million closing on June 21, 2007. Effective July 7, 2008, we
redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $6.3 million of the Debentures. We
also amended the remaining $2.7 million of aggregate principal Debentures to,
among other things, permit the indebtedness under our Credit Facility,
subordinate the security interests of the debentures to the Credit Facility,
provide for the redemption of the remaining Debentures with the net proceeds
from any next debt or equity offering and eliminate the covenant to maintain
certain production thresholds.
The
proceeds from the Debentures were allocated to the long-term debt and the stock
issued based on the fair market value of each item that we calculated to be $9.0
million. Since each of the instruments had a value equal to 50% of
the total, we allocated $4.5 million to stock and $4.5 million to the
note. The loan discount costs of $4.5 million will accrete as
interest based on the interest method over the period of issue to maturity or
redemption. The amount of interest accreted for the year ended March
31, 2010 was $596,108. There was is no remaining amount of interest to
accrete.
We
incurred debt issue costs totaling $466,835. The debt issue costs are
initially recorded as assets and are amortized to expense on a straight-line
basis over the life of the loan. The amount expensed in the year
ended March 31, 2010 was $45,929.
The Debentures originally had a
three-year term, maturing on March 31, 2010, and an interest rate equal to 10%
per annum. We further amended the Debentures in June 2009 to extend
the maturity date to September 30, 2010, to allow us to pay interest in either
cash or payment-in-kind interest (an increase in the amount of principal due) or
payment-in-kind shares (issuance of shares of common stock), and add a provision
for the conversion of the debentures into shares of our common
stock. Subsequent to the quarter ended December 31, 2009, we further
amended the Debentures to extend the scheduled due dates for the January and
February 2010 redemption payments to March 10, 2010. In addition, in
April of 2010, we further amended the Debentures to remove the conversion
feature and extend the Maturity Date to December 31, 2010.
Interest
is payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each succeeding quarter. The
interest rate remains 14% per annum for cash interest payments. The
payment-in-kind interest rate is equal to 12.5% per annum. If
interest payments are made through payment-in-kind interest, we must issue
common stock equal to an additional 2.5% of the quarterly interest payment
due. As of March 31, 2010, we have recorded additional principal on
the Debentures of $368,045 and common stock of $9,792.
We again
amended the Debentures on November 16, 2009 to provide for the tender and
cancellation of shares by the Buyers upon retirement of a portion of the
Debentures in accordance with an agreed upon schedule. We redeemed
$150,000 of the Debentures for $150,000 in cash in accordance with this
amendment during the quarter ended December 31, 2009. As a result,
75,000 shares have been tendered and will be cancelled.
We have
no prepayment penalty so long as we maintain an effective registration statement
with the Securities Exchange Commission and provided we give six (6) business
days prior notice of redemption to the Buyers. During the year ended
March 31, 2010 we also repurchased $450,000 of the Debentures at a gain of
$406,500.
Going
Concern
Our
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that
we will continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern
is dependent upon attaining profitable operations based on increased production
and prices of oil and natural gas. We intend to use borrowings, equity and asset
sales, and other strategic initiatives to mitigate the effects of our cash
position, however, no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if
and when required, will be available. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded
assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be
unable to continue in existence.
Satisfaction of our cash obligations
for the next 12 months.
A
critical component of our operating plan is the ability to obtain additional
capital through additional equity and/or debt financing and working interest
participants. During fiscal 2010, we were in the midst of a public equity
offering when global economic conditions deteriorated and the commodity prices
of oil and natural gas experienced significant declines. Our cash revenues from
operations have been significantly impacted as has our ability to meet our
monthly operating expenses and service our debt obligations. In the event we
cannot obtain additional capital through other means to allow us to pursue our
strategic plan, this would materially impact our ability to continue our desired
growth. There is no assurance we would be able to obtain such financing on
commercially reasonable terms, if at all.
We
intend to implement and execute our business and marketing strategy, respond to
competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel.
There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks,
and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business
prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
Summary of product research and
development that we will perform for the term of our plan.
We do not
anticipate performing any significant product research and development under our
plan of operation until such time as we can raise adequate working capital to
sustain our operations.
Expected purchase or sale of any
significant equipment.
We
anticipate that we will purchase the necessary production and field service
equipment required to produce oil and natural gas during our normal course of
operations over the next twelve months.
Significant changes in the number of
employees.
As of
March 31, 2010, we had 14 full-time employees; however, subsequent to year-end
we have reduced personnel levels by 5 full time employees and one independent
contractor in response to declining economic conditions and in an effort to
reduce our operating and general expenses and cash outlay. As drilling
production activities increase or decrease, we may have to adjust our technical,
operational and administrative personnel as appropriate. We are using and will
continue to use the services of independent consultants and contractors to
perform various professional services, particularly in the area of land
services, reservoir engineering, geology drilling, water hauling, pipeline
construction, well design, well-site monitoring and surveillance, permitting and
environmental assessment. We believe that this use of third-party service
providers may enhance our ability to contain operating and general expenses, and
capital costs.
Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements
We do not
have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to
have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our
critical accounting estimates include our oil and gas properties, asset
retirement obligations and the value of share-based payments.
Oil and Gas
Properties:
The
accounting for our business is subject to special accounting rules that are
unique to the gas and oil industry. There are two allowable methods of
accounting for oil and gas business activities: the successful efforts method
and the full-cost method. We follow the full-cost method of accounting under
which all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration and
development activities are capitalized. We also capitalize internal costs that
can be directly identified with our acquisition, exploration and development
activities and do not include any costs related to production, general corporate
overhead or similar activities.
Under
the full-cost method, capitalized costs are amortized on a composite
unit-of-production method based on proved gas and oil reserves. Depreciation,
depletion and amortization expense is also based on the amount of estimated
reserves. If we maintain the same level of production year over year, the
depreciation, depletion and amortization expense may be significantly different
if our estimate of remaining reserves changes significantly. Proceeds from the
sale of properties are accounted for as reductions of capitalized costs unless
such sales involve a significant change in the relationship between costs and
the value of proved reserves or the underlying value of unproved properties, in
which case a gain or loss is recognized. The costs of unproved properties are
excluded from amortization until the properties are evaluated. We review all of
our unevaluated properties quarterly to determine whether or not and to what
extent proved reserves have been assigned to the properties, and otherwise if
impairment has occurred. Unevaluated properties are assessed individually when
individual costs are significant.
We review
the carrying value of our gas and oil properties under the full-cost accounting
rules of the SEC on a quarterly basis. This quarterly review is referred to as a
ceiling test. Under the ceiling test, capitalized costs, less accumulated
amortization and related deferred income taxes, may not exceed an amount equal
to the sum of the present value of estimated future net revenues (adjusted for
cash flow hedges) less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in
developing and producing the proved reserves, less any related income tax
effects. In calculating future net revenues, current prices and costs used are
those as of the end of the appropriate quarterly period. Such prices are
utilized except where different prices are fixed and determinable from
applicable contracts for the remaining term of those contracts, including the
effects of derivatives qualifying as cash flow hedges. Two primary factors
impacting this test are reserve levels and current prices, and their associated
impact on the present value of estimated future net revenues. Revisions to
estimates of gas and oil reserves and/or an increase or decrease in prices can
have a material impact on the present value of estimated future net revenues.
Any excess of the net book value, less deferred income taxes, is generally
written off as an expense. Under SEC regulations, the excess above the ceiling
is not expensed (or is reduced) if, subsequent to the end of the period, but
prior to the release of the financial statements, gas and oil prices increase
sufficiently such that an excess above the ceiling would have been eliminated
(or reduced) if the increased prices were used in the calculations.
The
process of estimating gas and oil reserves is very complex, requiring
significant decisions in the evaluation of available geological, geophysical,
engineering and economic data. The data for a given property may also change
substantially over time as a result of numerous factors, including additional
development activity, evolving production history and a continual reassessment
of the viability of production under changing economic conditions. As a result,
material revisions to existing reserve estimates occur from time to time.
Although every reasonable effort is made to ensure that reserve estimates
reported represent the most accurate assessments possible, the subjective
decisions and variances in available data for various properties increase the
likelihood of significant changes in these estimates.
As of
March 31, 2010, approximately 100% of our proved reserves were evaluated by an
independent petroleum consultant. All reserve estimates are prepared based upon
a review of production histories and other geologic, economic, ownership and
engineering data.
Asset
Retirement Obligations:
The asset
retirement obligation relates to the plug and abandonment costs when our wells
are no longer useful. We determine the value of the liability by obtaining
quotes for this service and estimate the increase we will face in the future. We
then discount the future value based on an intrinsic interest rate that is
appropriate for us. If costs rise more than what we have expected there could be
additional charges in the future however we monitor the costs of the abandoned
wells and we will adjust this liability if necessary.
Share-Based
Payments:
The value
we assign to the options and warrants that we issue is based on the fair market
value as calculated by the Black-Scholes pricing model. To perform a calculation
of the value of our options and warrants, we determine an estimate of the
volatility of our stock. We need to estimate volatility because there
has not been enough trading of our stock to determine an appropriate measure of
volatility. We believe our estimate of volatility is reasonable, and we review
the assumptions used to determine this whenever we issue a new equity
instruments. If we have a material error in our estimate of the
volatility of our stock, our expenses could be understated or
overstated.
Recent
Issued Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Codification
— On July 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(“FASB”) instituted a
new referencing system, which codifies, but does not amend, previously existing
nongovernmental GAAP. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™
(“ASC”) is now
the single authoritative source for GAAP. Although the implementation
of ASC had no impact on our financial statements, certain references to
authoritative GAAP literature within our footnotes have been changed to cite the
appropriate content within the ASC.
FASB
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-03 was issued on
January 6, 2010, and aligns the current oil and natural gas reserve
estimation and disclosure requirements of ASC 932 with those in the SEC Final Rule Modernization of Oil
and Gas
Reporting issued December 31, 2008. The rules only apply
prospectively as a change in estimate. The most significant amendments to the
reserve and disclosure requirements include the following:
|
·
|
Commodity
Prices—Economic producibility of reserves and discounted cash flows will
be based on an unweighted arithmetic average of the first day of the month
commodity price during the 12-month period ending on the balance sheet
date unless contractual arrangements designate the price to be
used.
|
|
·
|
Disclosure
of Unproved Reserves—Probable and possible reserves may be disclosed
separately on a voluntary basis.
|
|
·
|
Proved
Undeveloped Reserve Guidelines—Reserves may be classified as proved
undeveloped if there is a high degree of confidence that the quantities
will be recovered.
|
|
·
|
Reserve
Estimation Using New Technologies—Reserves may be estimated through the
use of reliable technology in addition to flow tests and production
history.
|
|
·
|
Reserve
Personnel and Estimation Process—Additional disclosure is required
regarding the qualifications of the chief technical person who oversees
our reserves estimation process. We will also be required to provide a
general discussion of our internal controls used to assure the objectivity
of the reserves estimate.
|
|
·
|
Disclosure
by Geographic Area—Reserves in foreign countries or continents must be
presented separately if they represent more than 15% of our total oil and
natural gas proved reserves.
|
|
·
|
Non-Traditional
Resources—The definition of oil and natural gas producing activities will
expand and focus on the marketable product rather than the method of
extraction.
|
ASU
2010-03 is effective for entities with annual reporting periods ending on or
after December 31, 2009. We adopted both the FASB and the SEC
rules.
Adoption of ASU 2009-05 — In
August 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting
Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-05, Fair Value Measurement and
Disclosures: Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value. ASU 2009-05
provides clarification on measuring liabilities at fair value when a quoted
price in an active market is not available. We adopted ASU No.
2009-05 (FASB ASC 820-10). The adoption of this statement did not
have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Interim Disclosures about Fair Value
of Financial Instrument — We adopted FSP SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 “Interim
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, which is now
incorporated into ASC Topic No. 825 (“ASC 825”). This
statement increases the frequency of fair value disclosures to a quarterly
instead of annual basis. The guidance relates to fair value
disclosures for any financial instruments that are not currently reflected on
the balance sheet at fair value. The adoption of this statement did
not have a material impact on our financial position or results of
operations.
Determining Fair Value When the
Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly
Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly — We adopted
the FSP SFAS 157-4 “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity
for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying
Transactions That Are Not Orderly” which is now incorporated into ASC Topic No.
820 (“ASC
820”). ASC 820 provides guidelines for a broad
interpretation of when to apply market-based fair value measures. It
reaffirms management’s need to use judgment to determine when a market that was
once active has become inactive and in determining fair values in markets that
are no longer active.
Disclosure about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities — We adopted FASB Statement No. 161,
“Disclosure about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of
FASB Statement No. 133” which is now incorporated into ASC Topic No. 815 (“ASC 815”). ASC 815
amends and expands the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and
hedging activities with the intent to provide users of financial statements with
an enhanced understanding of: (i) how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments; (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are
accounted for; and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged
items affect an entity’s financial position, results of operations and cash
flows. The adoption of this statement did not have an impact on our
financial position or results of operations.
Business Combinations — We
adopted SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007) “Business Combinations” which is now
incorporated into ASC Topic No. 805 (“ASC 805”). The
revision broadens the definition of a business combination to include all
transactions or other events in which control of one or more businesses is
obtained. Further, this statement establishes principles and
requirements for how an acquirer recognizes assets acquired, liabilities assumed
and any non-controlling interests acquired. The adoption of this
statement has not had an impact on our financial position or results of
operations, because we have not yet had any business combinations in the year
ended March 31, 2010.
Effective Date of FASB Statement No.
157 - We also adopted FSP SFAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement
No. 157”, which is also now incorporated into ASC Topic No. 820. The
effective date was deferred for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial
liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in
the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually) to fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. The adoption of this statement did not have
a material impact on our financial position or results of
operations.
Effects
of Inflation and Pricing
The oil
and natural gas industry is very cyclical and the demand for goods and services
of oil field companies, suppliers and others associated with the industry puts
extreme pressure on the economic stability and pricing structure within the
industry. Material changes in prices impact revenue stream, estimates of future
reserves, borrowing base calculations of bank loans and value of properties in
purchase and sale transactions. Material changes in prices can impact the value
of oil and natural gas companies and their ability to raise capital, borrow
money and retain personnel. We anticipate business costs and the demand for
services related to production and exploration will fluctuate while the
commodity prices for oil and natural gas, both remain volatile.

F-1.
Item
9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants On Accounting and Financial
Disclosure.
None.
Item
9A(T). Controls and Procedures.
Our Chief
Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, C. Stephen Cochennet,
evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended)
as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on the
evaluation, Mr. Cochennet concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
are effective in timely altering him to material information relating to us
(including our consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our
periodic SEC filings.
There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred
during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.
Management’s
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting, as is defined in the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934. These internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance
that the reported financial information is presented fairly, that disclosures
are adequate and that the judgments inherent in the preparation of financial
statements are reasonable. There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness
of any system of internal control, including the possibility of human error and
overriding of controls. Consequently, an effective internal control system can
only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance, with respect to reporting
financial information.
Management
conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting based on the framework and criteria established in Internal
Control — Integrated Framework, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management
concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of
March 31, 2010.
This annual report does not include an
attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal
control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to
attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules
of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only
management’s report in this annual report.
Item
9B. Other Information.
Technical Default under
Credit Facility
On July
3, 2008, we entered into a three-year $50 million Senior Secured Credit Facility
(the “Credit Facility”) with Texas Capital Bank, N.A. Borrowings
under the Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base limitation based on
our current proved oil and gas reserves and are subject to semi-annual
redeterminations.
The
Credit Facility also requires that we, at the end of each fiscal quarter
beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2008, maintain a minimum current
assets to current liabilities ratio and a minimum ratio of EBITDA (earnings
before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to interest expense and
at the end of each fiscal quarter and to maintain a minimum ratio of EBITDA to
senior funded debt. We obtained a waiver of default from Texas Capital Bank on
two technical covenants at March 31, 2009 and one at June 30,
2009. We were not in compliance with the technical covenants of the
Credit Facility at March 31, 2010, however, we are current with principal and
interest and we have requested a waiver of this technical default from
TCB. There can be no assurance that TCB will grant us a waiver. As a
result, we have classified the entire outstanding balance due under the Credit
Facility as a current liability.
We have
received Monthly Commitment Reduction notices from Texas Capital under the
Credit Facility through monthly installments. We paid $637,000 to
reduce the borrowing base during the year ended March 31, 2010. Following
receipt of the notices, we commenced discussions with Texas Capital regarding a
possible forbearance agreement or waiver, pursuant to which the bank would
waive, postpone or delay the requirement to repay some or all of the anticipated
Monthly Commitment Reductions, in order to afford us additional time to raise
equity capital, increase production or consummate alternative financing
transactions. The discussions are currently ongoing, although there is no
assurance that we will be able to negotiate successfully a forbearance agreement
or obtain any other waiver of compliance from the bank.
Although
we anticipate the ability to make monthly payments of $55,000 following the most
recent borrowing base review, which will be applied towards the borrowing base
reduction; if we are unable to successfully negotiate a forbearance agreement,
obtain a waiver of compliance or cure a borrowing base deficiency, an event of
default under the Credit Facility will occur. An event of default under the
Credit Facility permits Texas Capital to accelerate repayment of all amounts due
and to terminate the commitments thereunder. We currently have approximately
$6.69 million drawn under the Credit Facility. Any event of default which
results in such acceleration under the Credit Facility would also result in an
event of default under our Debentures, described above. We do not have
sufficient cash resources to repay these amounts if Texas Capital accelerates
its obligations under the Credit Facility. If we are unable to successfully
negotiate a forbearance agreement or waiver with Texas Capital, or if Texas
Capital accelerates its obligations under the Credit Facility, we may be forced
to voluntarily seek bankruptcy protection.
The terms
of the Credit Facility (including a full description of the rights and remedies
of Texas Capital upon an event of default), and copies of the Texas Capital
agreements related to the Credit Facility can be found in our prior filings with
the SEC, including the Current Reports on Forms 8-K filed with the SEC on July
10, 2008 and November 19, 2008, which are incorporated herein by reference and
in the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement included in exhibit 10.12 and in
the Second Amendment to the Credit Agreement included in exhibit
10.16.

Involvement in Certain Legal
Proceedings
None of
our executive officers or directors has been the subject of any Order, Judgment,
or Decree of any Court of competent jurisdiction, or any regulatory agency
permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring suspending or otherwise limiting
him from acting as an investment advisor, underwriter, broker or dealer in the
securities industry, or as an affiliated person, director or employee of an
investment company, bank, savings and loan association, or insurance company or

such activity or in connection with the purchase or sale of any
securities.
None of
our executive officers or directors has been convicted in any criminal
proceeding (excluding traffic violations) or is the subject of a criminal
proceeding, which is currently pending.
Section
16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),
requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own
more than ten percent of our common stock, to file initial reports of ownership
and reports of changes in ownership with the SEC. Executive officers, directors
and greater than ten percent beneficial owners are required by SEC regulations
to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based upon a
review of the copies of such forms furnished to us and written representations
from our executive officers and directors, we believe that as of the date of
this report they were all current in their 16(a) reports.
Board
of Directors
Our board of directors currently
consists of five members. Our directors serve one-year terms. Our board of
directors has affirmatively determined that Messrs., Palmer and Kmak and Moll
are independent directors, as defined by Section 803 of the American Stock
Exchange Company Guide.
Committees
of the Board of Directors
Our board of directors has two standing
committees: an audit committee and a governance, compensation and nominating
committee. Each of those committees has the composition and responsibilities set
forth below.
Audit
Committee
On May 4,
2007, we established and appointed initial members to the audit committee of our
board of directors. Mr. Kmak is the chairman and Mr. Moll serves as the other
member of the committee. Currently, none of the members of the audit
committee are, or have been, our officers or employees, and each member
qualifies as an independent director as defined by Section 803 of the American
Stock Exchange Company Guide and Section 10A(m) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, and Rule 10A-3 there under. The Board of Directors has
determined that Mr. Kmak is an “audit committee financial expert” as that
term is used in Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the
Securities Exchange Act. The audit committee held five meetings during fiscal
2010, when its members consisted of Messrs. Dammeyer and Wonish.
The audit
committee has the sole authority to appoint and, when deemed appropriate,
replace our independent registered public accounting firm, and has established a
policy of pre-approving all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by
our independent registered public accounting firm. The audit committee has,
among other things, the responsibility to evaluate the qualifications and
independence of our independent registered public accounting firm; to review and
approve the scope and results of the annual audit; to review and discuss with
management and the independent registered public accounting firm the content of
our financial statements prior to the filing of our quarterly reports and annual
reports; to review the content and clarity of our proposed communications with
investors regarding our operating results and other financial matters; to review
significant changes in our accounting policies; to establish procedures for
receiving, retaining, and investigating reports of illegal acts involving us or
complaints or concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters,
and supervise the investigation of any such reports, complaints or concerns; to
establish procedures for the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees
of concerns or complaints regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters;
and to provide sufficient opportunity for the independent auditors to meet with
the committee without management present.
Governance,
Compensation and Nominating Committee
The governance, compensation and
nominating committee is comprised of Messrs. Kmak, Moll and
Palmer. Mr. Kmak serves as the chairman of the governance,
compensation and nominating committee. The governance, compensation
and nominating committee is responsible for,
among other things; identifying, reviewing,
and evaluating individuals qualified to become members of the Board, setting the
compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and performing other compensation
oversight, reviewing and recommending the nomination of Board members, and
administering our equity compensation plans. The governance, compensation and
nominating committee held five meetings during fiscal 2010, when its members
consisted of Messrs. Wonish, Dammeyer and Palmer.
Restructuring
Committee
The restructuring committee is
comprised of Messrs. Moll and Kmak. Mr. Moll serves as the chairman
of the restructuring committee. The restructuring committee shall work with
management and outside professionals to address the potential for restructuring
of EnerJex in any and all areas and respects, including management structure,
delegation of authority and any and all strategies and courses of action for
EnerJex and its future as a going concern.
Code
of Ethics
We have
adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our
directors, officers and employees, as well as to directors, officers and
employees of each subsidiary of the Company. Our Code of Ethics was filed as
Exhibit 99.6 to the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended March 31,
2007 which was filed on June 13, 2007. A copy of our Code of Business Conduct
and Ethics will be provided to any person, without charge, upon request. It is
available on our website: enerjexresources.com, or you may contact C.
Stephen Cochennet at 913-754-7754 to request a copy of the Code or send your
request to EnerJex Resources, Inc., Attn: C. Stephen Cochennet, 27 Corporate
Woods, Suite 350, 10975 Grandview Drive, Overland Park, Kansas 66210. If any
substantive amendments are made to the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics or if
we grant any waiver, including any implicit waiver, from a provision of the Code
to any of our officers and directors, we will disclose the nature of such
amendment or waiver in a report on Form 8-K.
Limitation of Liability of
Directors
Pursuant
to the Nevada General Corporation Law, our Articles of Incorporation exclude
personal liability for our Directors for monetary damages based upon any
violation of their fiduciary duties as Directors, except as to liability for any
breach of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or which
involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or any transaction
from which a Director receives an improper personal benefit. This exclusion of
liability does not limit any right which a Director may have to be indemnified
and does not affect any Director’s liability under federal or applicable state
securities laws. We have agreed to indemnify our directors against expenses,
judgments, and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any claim against a
Director if he acted in good faith and in a manner he believed to be in our best
interests.
Nevada Anti-Takeover Law and Charter
and By-law Provisions
Depending
on the number of residents in the state of Nevada who own our shares, we could
be subject to the provisions of Sections 78.378 et seq. of the Nevada Revised
Statutes which, unless otherwise provided in a company’s articles of
incorporation or by-laws, restricts the ability of an acquiring person to obtain
a controlling interest of 20% or more of our voting shares. Our articles of
incorporation and by-laws do not contain any provision which would currently
keep the change of control restrictions of Section 78.378 from applying to
us.
We are
subject to the provisions of Sections 78.411 et seq. of the Nevada Revised
Statutes. In general, this statute prohibits a publicly held Nevada corporation
from engaging in a “combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period
of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an
interested stockholder, unless the combination or the transaction by which the
person became an interested stockholder is approved by the corporation’s board
of directors before the person becomes an interested stockholder. After the
expiration of the three-year period, the corporation may engage in a combination
with an interested stockholder under certain circumstances, including if the
combination is approved by the board of directors and/or stockholders in a
prescribed manner, or if specified requirements are met regarding consideration.
The term “combination” includes mergers, asset sales and other transactions
resulting in a financial benefit to the interested stockholder. Subject to
certain exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with
affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years did own, 10% or more of
the corporation’s voting stock. A Nevada corporation may “opt out” from the
application of Section 78.411 et seq. through a provision
in its articles of incorporation or by-laws. We have not “opted out” from the
application of this section.
Apart
from Nevada law, however, our articles of incorporation and by-laws do not
contain any provisions which are sometimes associated with inhibiting a change
of control from occurring (i.e., we do not provide for a staggered board, or for
“super-majority” votes on major corporate issues). However, we do have
10,000,000 shares of authorized “blank check” preferred stock, which could be
used to inhibit a change in control.
Item
11. Executive Compensation.
The
following table sets forth summary compensation information for the fiscal years
ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 for our chief executive officer and chief
financial officer. We did not have any other executive officers as of the end of
fiscal 2010 whose total compensation exceeded $100,000. We refer to these
persons as our named executive officers elsewhere in this report.

C. Stephen Cochennet – Chief

subject to a “catch-up”
provision, such that if an element in any year is missed, it may be “caught-up”
in a subsequent year, so long as the cumulative goal is met. For example, if the
2009 share price element of $11.00 is not met by March 31, 2009, Mr. Cochennet
would still be able to earn the available options for this element if our share
price is at least $16.85 on March 31, 2010, or $22.55 on March 31, 2011. Any
caught-up options would be granted at the then current stock price. The
cumulative goal for Mr. Cochennet’s long-term incentive compensation is
comprised of three factors; a 35% year over year net reserve growth (40% of the
goal), a 35% year over year net production increase (30% of the goal), and the
previously stated share price increases (30% of the goal).
As
consideration for his efforts during fiscal 2008 we also agreed to pay Mr.
Cochennet a $50,000 cash bonus and grant him 75,000 options to purchase shares
of our common stock at $6.25 per share; 30,000 vested immediately upon grant and
the remaining 45,000 were to vest over a three year period. These options were
rescinded in November 2008 at the request of the board’s compensation committee
and with the approval of Mr. Cochennet in an effort to reduce compensation
expense which, through non-cash, would have had a substantial negative impact on
our financial statements and results of operations for the quarter ended
September 30, 2008. Shares subject to these options were returned to
the plan and are available for future issuance. On August 3, 2009, we issued Mr.
Cochennet 18,800 shares of twelve month restricted stock in consideration for
the prior rescission of the options discussed above.
In the
event of a termination of employment with us by Mr. Cochennet for “good reason”, which includes
by reason of a “change of
control”, or by us without “cause” (each as defined in
the employment agreement), Mr. Cochennet would receive: (i) a lump sum
payment equal to all earned but unpaid base salary through the date of
termination of employment; (ii) a lump sum payment equal to the annual incentive
amount (assuming achievement at 100% of target) that Mr. Cochennet would have
earned if he had remained employed through June 30th following the last day of
the current fiscal year; (iii) a lump sum payment equal to an amount equal to
the lesser of (a) 12-months base salary or (b) the base salary Mr.
Cochennet would have received had he remained in employment through the end of
the then-existing term of the agreement; and (iv) immediate vesting of all
equity awards (including but not limited to stock options and restricted
shares).
In the
event of a termination of Mr. Cochennet’s employment with us by reason of
incapacity, disability or death, Mr. Cochennet, or his estate, would receive:
(i) a lump sum payment equal to all earned but unpaid base salary through the
date of termination of employment or death; (ii) a lump sum payment equal to the
annual incentive amount (assuming achievement at 100% of target) that Mr.
Cochennet would have earned if he had remained employed through June 30th
following the last day of the current fiscal year; and (iii) a lump sum payment
equal to an amount equal to six-months base salary.
In the
event of a termination of Mr. Cochennet’s employment by us for “cause” (as defined in the
employment agreement), Mr. Cochennet would receive all earned but unpaid base
salary through the date of termination of employment. However, if a dispute
arises between us and Mr. Cochennet that is not resolved within 60 days and
neither party initiates arbitration proceedings pursuant to the terms of the
employment agreement, we will have the option to pay Mr. Cochennet a lump sum
payment equal to six-months base salary in lieu of any and all other amounts or
payments to which Mr. Cochennet may be entitled relating to his
employment.
Effective
April 1, 2010, C. Stephen Cochennet, the Registrant’s chief executive officer
and president, agreed to waive all salary payable to him (approximately $50,000)
for the months of April, May and June of 2010. All other terms and provisions of
Mr. Cochennet’s employment agreement dated August 1, 2008 remain
unchanged.
Dierdre P. Jones – Chief
Financial Officer
On July
23, 2008, Dierdre P. Jones, our former director of finance and accounting, was
appointed our chief financial officer. On August 1, 2008, we entered into an
employment agreement with Ms. Jones. The employment agreement was approved by
the governance, compensation and nominating committee of our board of directors.
Ms. Jones resigned as our chief financial officer on June 10, 2010 to pursue
other business opportunities.
Potential Payments Upon Termination
or Change in Control
We
entered into employment agreements with our chief executive officer and our
chief financial officer, which could result in payments to such officers
because of their resignation, incapacity or disability, or other termination of
employment with us or our subsidiaries, or a change in control, or a change in
their responsibilities following a change in control.
In Aril
of 2010, we experienced a change in control, as defined in our executive
employment agreements, when three of the members of our board of directors
(Messrs. Dammeyer, Wonish and Dr. Rector) resigned and were replaced by three
new members (Messrs. Kmak, Haas and Moll). As of the date of this
report, we have not received any claims or paid any payments as a result of this
change in control.

Item
12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related
Stockholder Matters.
The
following table presents information, to the best of EnerJex’s knowledge, about
the ownership of EnerJex’s common stock on July 9, 2010 relating to those
persons known to beneficially own more than 5% of EnerJex’s capital stock and by
EnerJex’s directors and executive officers. The percentage of beneficial
ownership for the following table is based on 5,133,873 shares of common stock
outstanding.
Beneficial
ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission and does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for
any other purpose. Under these rules, beneficial ownership includes those shares
of common stock over which the stockholder has sole or shared voting or
investment power. It also includes shares of common stock that the stockholder
has a right to acquire within 60 days after July 9, 2010 pursuant to options,
warrants, conversion privileges or other right. The percentage ownership of the
outstanding common stock, however, is based on the assumption, expressly
required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, that only the
person or entity whose ownership is being reported has converted options or
warrants into shares of EnerJex’s common stock.

Audit Committee Policies and
Procedures
Our Audit
Committee pre-approves all services to be provided to us by our independent
auditor. This process involves obtaining (i) a written description of the
proposed services, (ii) the confirmation of our Principal Accounting
Officer that the services are compatible with maintaining specific principles
relating to independence, and (iii) confirmation from our securities
counsel that the services are not among those that our independent auditors have
been prohibited from performing under SEC rules, as outlined in the Audit
Committee charter. The members of the Audit Committee then make a determination
to approve or disapprove the engagement of Weaver & Martin for the proposed
services. In fiscal 2010, all fees paid to Weaver & Martin were unanimously
pre-approved in accordance with this policy.
Less than
50 percent of hours expended on the principal accountants engagement to audit
the registrants financial statements for the most recent fiscal year were
attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountants
full-time, permanent employees.
AUDIT
COMMITTEE AND INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Qualification
Of Audit Committee Members
Our
Audit Committee consists of two independent directors, each of whom has been
selected for membership on the Audit Committee by the Board of Directors based
on the Boards determination that he is fully qualified to oversee EnerJexs
internal audit function, assess and select independent auditors, and oversee
EnerJexs financial reporting processes and overall risk management. The Audit
Committee has the authority to seek advice and assistance from outside legal,
accounting or other advisors and exercises such authority as it deems necessary.
The full text of the charter of the Audit Committee can be found in the investor
section of our website at www.enerjexresources.com.
Through a range of education,
experiences in business and executive leadership and service on the boards of
directors, and through experience on EnerJex’s Board of Directors and Audit
Committee, each member of the Committee has an understanding of generally
accepted accounting principles and has experience in evaluating the financial
performance of public companies. Moreover, the Audit Committee members have
gained valuable special knowledge of the financial condition and performance of
EnerJex. The Board has determined that Daran G. Dammeyer is a financial expert
as that term is used in Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the
Securities Exchange Act.
Report
Of The Audit Committee Of The Board
The
Company’s management is responsible for preparing our financial statements and
ensuring they are complete and accurate and prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles. Weaver & Martin, LLC, our
independent registered public accounting firm, is responsible for performing an
independent audit of our consolidated financial statements and expressing an
opinion on the conformity of those financial statements with generally accepted
accounting principles.
The Audit
Committee has reviewed and discussed with our management the audited financial
statements of the Company included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010 (“10-K”).
The Audit
Committee has also reviewed and discussed with Weaver & Martin, LLC the
audited financial statements in the 10-K. In addition, the Audit Committee
discussed with Weaver & Martin, LLC those matters required to be discussed
by the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended. Additionally,
Weaver & Martin, LLC provided to the Audit Committee the written disclosures
and the letter required by applicable requirements of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant’s communications
with the Audit Committee concerning independence. The Audit Committee also
discussed with Weaver & Martin, LLC its independence from the
Company.
Based
upon the review and discussions described above, the Audit Committee recommended
to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in
the Company’s 10-K for filing with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission.

Report
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Stockholders
and Directors
EnerJex
Resources, Inc.
Overland
Park, Kansas
We have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of EnerJex Resources, Inc.
as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years
in the two-year period ended March 31, 2010. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatements. The Company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal
control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the consolidated financial position of EnerJex Resources,
Inc. as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the consolidated results of its
operations and cash flows for each of the years in the two–year period ended
March 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial
statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses and had negative cash
flows that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are described in
the Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
As
discussed in Note 15 to the financial statements, the financial statements have
been restated for the correction of an error of the estimated reserves at March
31, 2010.

Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note
1 – Summary of Accounting Policies
Basis
of Presentation
Our
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our operations
are considered to fall within a single industry segment, which is the
acquisition, development, exploitation and production of natural gas and crude
oil properties in the United States. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated upon
consolidation. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior
year financial statements to conform to the current year
presentation.
Nature
of Business
We are an
independent energy company engaged in the business of producing and selling
crude oil and natural gas. This crude oil and natural gas is obtained primarily
by the acquisition and subsequent exploration and development of mineral
leases. Development and exploration may include drilling new
exploratory or development wells on these leases. These operations are conducted
primarily in Eastern Kansas.
Use of Estimates in
the Preparation of Financial Statements
The
preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles 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 consolidated
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Significant estimates included in the
consolidated financial statements are: (1) oil revenues and reserves; (2)
depreciation, depletion and amortization; (3) valuation allowances associated
with income taxes (4) accrued assets and liabilities; (5) stock-based
compensation; (6) asset retirement obligations and (7) valuation of derivative
instruments. Although management believes these estimates are
reasonable, changes in facts
and
circumstances or discovery of new information may result in revised
estimates. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Trade
Accounts Receivable
Trade
accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear any
interest. We regularly review receivables to insure that the amounts
will be collected and establish or adjust an allowance for uncollectible amounts
as necessary using the specific identification method. Account
balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection
have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. There
were no reserves for uncollectible amounts in the periods
presented.
Share-Based
Payments
The value
we assign to the options and warrants that we issue is based on the fair market
value as calculated by the Black-Scholes pricing model. To perform a calculation
of the value of our options and warrants, we determine an estimate of the
volatility of our stock. We need to estimate volatility because there
has not been enough trading of our stock to determine an appropriate measure of
volatility. We believe our estimate of volatility is reasonable, and we review
the assumptions used to determine this whenever we issue a new equity
instruments.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are recognized when items of income and expense are
recognized in the financial statements in different periods than when recognized
in the applicable tax return. Deferred tax assets arise when expenses are
recognized in the financial statements before the tax returns or when income
items are recognized in the tax return prior to the financial statements.
Deferred tax assets also arise when operating losses or tax credits are
available to offset tax payments due in future years. Deferred tax liabilities
arise when income items are recognized in the financial statements before the tax returns or
when expenses are recognized in the tax return prior to the financial
statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using
enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect
on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that includes the date when the change in the tax rate was
enacted.
We
routinely assess the realizability of our deferred tax assets. If we
conclude that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the
deferred tax assets will not be realized under accounting standards, the tax
asset is reduced by a valuation allowance. In addition we routinely assess
uncertain tax positions, and accrue for tax positions that are not
more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing
authorities.
Fair
Value Measurements
Accounting
guidance establishes a single authoritative definition of fair value based upon
the assumptions market participants would use when pricing an asset or liability
and creates a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the information used to
develop those assumptions. Additional disclosures are required,
including disclosures of fair value measurements by level within the fair value
hierarchy. We incorporate a credit risk assumption into the
measurement of certain assets and liabilities
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
We
consider all highly liquid investment instruments purchased with original
maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents for purposes of the
consolidated statements of cash flows and other statements. We maintain cash on
deposit, which, at times, exceed federally insured limits. We have not
experienced any losses on such accounts and believe we are not exposed to any
significant credit risk on cash and equivalents.
Revenue
Recognition and Imbalances
Oil and
gas revenues are recognized net of royalties when production is sold to a
purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, when delivery has occurred and title
has transferred, and if collection of the revenue is probable. Cash received
relating to future revenues is deferred and recognized when all revenue
recognition criteria are met.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is on a straight-line method
using the estimated lives of the assets. (3-15 years). Expenditures
for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense.
Debt
issue costs
Debt
issuance costs incurred are capitalized and subsequently amortized over the term
of the related debt on the straight-line method of amortization over the
estimated life of the debt.
Oil
and Gas Properties
We follow
the full-cost method of accounting under which all costs associated with
property acquisition, exploration and development activities are capitalized. We
also capitalize internal costs that can be directly identified with our
acquisition, exploration and development activities and do not include any costs
related to production, general corporate overhead or similar
activities.
Under the
full-cost method, capitalized costs are amortized on a composite
unit-of-production method based on proved gas and oil reserves. Depreciation,
depletion and amortization expense is also based on the amount of estimated
reserves. If we maintain the same level of production year over year, the
depreciation, depletion and amortization expense may be significantly different
if our estimate of remaining reserves changes significantly. Proceeds from the
sale of properties are accounted for as reductions of capitalized costs unless
such sales involve a significant change in the relationship between costs and
the value of proved reserves or the underlying value of unproved properties, in
which case a gain or loss is recognized. The costs of unproved properties are
excluded from amortization until the properties are evaluated. We review all of
our unevaluated properties quarterly to determine whether or not and to what
extent proved reserves have been assigned to the properties, and otherwise if
impairment has occurred. Unevaluated properties are assessed individually when
individual costs are significant.
We review
the carrying value of our gas and oil properties under the full-cost accounting
rules of the SEC on a quarterly basis. This quarterly review is referred to as a
ceiling test. Under the ceiling test, capitalized costs, less accumulated
amortization and related deferred income taxes, may not exceed an amount equal
to the sum of the present value of estimated future net revenues (adjusted for
cash flow hedges) less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in
developing and producing the proved reserves, less any related income tax
effects. In calculating future net revenues, current SEC regulations require us
to utilize prices at the end of the appropriate quarterly period. Such prices
are utilized except where different prices are fixed and determinable from
applicable contracts for the remaining term of those contracts, including the
effects of derivatives qualifying as cash flow hedges. Two primary factors
impacting this test are reserve levels and current prices, and their associated
impact on the present value of estimated future net revenues. Revisions to
estimates of gas and oil reserves and/or an increase or decrease in prices can
have a material impact on the present value of estimated future net revenues.
Any excess of the net book value, less deferred income taxes, is generally
written off as an expense. Under SEC regulations, the excess above the ceiling
is not expensed (or is reduced) if, subsequent to the end of the period, but
prior to the release of the financial statements, gas and oil prices increase
sufficiently such that an excess above the ceiling would have been eliminated
(or reduced) if the increased prices were used in the calculations.
The
estimates of proved natural gas, crude oil and natural gas liquids reserves
utilized in the preparation of the financial statements are estimated in
accordance with guidelines established by the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”) and the
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), which require that
reserve estimates be prepared under existing economic and operating conditions
using a 12-month average price with no provision for price and cost escalations
in future years except by contractual arrangements.
Long-Lived
Assets
Impairment
of long-lived assets is recorded when indicators of impairment are present and
the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less
than the assets’ carrying value. The carrying value of the assets is
then reduced to their estimated fair value that is usually measured based on an
estimate of future discounted cash flows.
Asset
Retirement Obligations
The asset
retirement obligation relates to the plug and abandonment costs when our wells
are no longer useful. We determine the value of the liability by obtaining
quotes for this service and estimate the increase we will face in the future. We
then discount the future value based on an intrinsic interest rate that is
appropriate for us. If costs rise more than what we have expected there could be
additional charges in the future, however, we monitor the costs of the abandoned
wells and we will adjust this liability if necessary.
Major
Purchasers
For the
years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 we sold all of our oil production to one
purchaser’.
Recent
Issued Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Codification
— On July 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(“FASB”) instituted a
new referencing system, which codifies, but does not amend, previously existing
nongovernmental GAAP. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification™
(“ASC”) is now
the single authoritative source for GAAP. Although the implementation
of ASC had no impact on our financial statements, certain references to
authoritative GAAP literature within our footnotes have been changed to cite the
appropriate content within the ASC.
FASB
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-03 was issued on
January 6, 2010, and aligns the current oil and natural gas reserve
estimation and disclosure requirements of ASC 932 with those in the SEC Final Rule Modernization of Oil
and Gas
Reporting issued December 31, 2008. The rules only apply
prospectively as a change in estimate. The most significant amendments to the
reserve and disclosure requirements include the following:
|
·
|
Commodity
Prices—Economic producibility of reserves and discounted cash flows will
be based on an unweighted arithmetic average of the first day of the month
commodity price during the 12-month period ending on the balance sheet
date unless contractual arrangements designate the price to be
used.
|
|
·
|
Disclosure
of Unproved Reserves—Probable and possible reserves may be disclosed
separately on a voluntary basis.
|
|
·
|
Proved
Undeveloped Reserve Guidelines—Reserves may be classified as proved
undeveloped if there is a high degree of confidence that the quantities
will be recovered.
|
|
·
|
Reserve
Estimation Using New Technologies—Reserves may be estimated through the
use of reliable technology in addition to flow tests and production
history.
|
|
·
|
Reserve
Personnel and Estimation Process—Additional disclosure is required
regarding the qualifications of the chief technical person who oversees
our reserves estimation process. We will also be required to provide a
general discussion of our internal controls used to assure the objectivity
of the reserves estimate.
|
|
·
|
Disclosure
by Geographic Area—Reserves in foreign countries or continents must be
presented separately if they represent more than 15% of our total oil and
natural gas proved reserves.
|
|
·
|
Non-Traditional
Resources—The definition of oil and natural gas producing activities will
expand and focus on the marketable product rather than the method of
extraction.
|
ASU
2010-03 is effective for entities with annual reporting periods ending on or
after December 31, 2009. We adopted both the FASB and the SEC
rules.
Adoption of ASU 2009-05 — In
August 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting
Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-05, Fair Value Measurement and
Disclosures: Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value. ASU 2009-05
provides clarification on measuring liabilities at fair value when a quoted
price in an active market is not available. We adopted ASU No.
2009-05 (FASB ASC 820-10). The adoption of this statement did not
have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.
Interim Disclosures about Fair Value
of Financial Instrument — We adopted FSP SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 “Interim
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, which is now
incorporated into ASC Topic No. 825 (“ASC 825”). This
statement increases the frequency of fair value disclosures to a quarterly
instead of annual basis. The guidance relates to fair value
disclosures for any financial instruments that are not currently reflected on
the balance sheet at fair value. The adoption of this statement did
not have a material impact on our financial position or results of
operations.
Determining Fair Value When the
Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly
Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly — We adopted
the FSP SFAS 157-4 “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity
for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying
Transactions That Are Not Orderly” which is now incorporated into ASC Topic No.
820 (“ASC
820”). ASC 820 provides guidelines for a broad
interpretation of when to apply market-based fair value measures. It
reaffirms management’s need to use judgment to determine when a market that was
once active has become inactive and in determining fair values in markets that
are no longer active.
Disclosure about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities — We adopted FASB Statement No. 161,
“Disclosure about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of
FASB Statement No. 133” which is now incorporated into ASC Topic No. 815 (“ASC 815”). ASC 815
amends and expands the disclosure requirements for derivative instruments and
hedging activities with the intent to provide users of financial statements with
an enhanced understanding of: (i) how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments; (ii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are
accounted for; and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged
items affect an entity’s financial position, results of operations and cash
flows. The adoption of this statement did not have an impact on our
financial position or results of operations.
Business Combinations — We
adopted SFAS No. 141 (Revised 2007) “Business Combinations” which is now
incorporated into ASC Topic No. 805 (“ASC 805”). The
revision broadens the definition of a business combination to include all
transactions or other events in which control of one or more businesses is
obtained. Further, this statement establishes principles and
requirements for how an acquirer recognizes assets acquired, liabilities assumed
and any non-controlling interests acquired. The adoption of this
statement has not had an impact on our financial position or results of
operations, because we have not yet had any business combinations in the year
ended March 31, 2010.
Effective Date of FASB Statement No.
157 - We also adopted FSP SFAS 157-2, “Effective Date of FASB Statement
No. 157”, which is also now incorporated into ASC Topic No. 820. The
effective date was deferred for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial
liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in
the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually) to fiscal
years beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. The adoption of this statement did not have
a material impact on our financial position or results of
operations.
Note
2 – Going Concern
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that
we will continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern
is dependent upon attaining profitable operations based on the development of
products that can be sold. We intend to use borrowings, equity and asset sales,
and other strategic initiatives to mitigate the affects of our cash position,
however, no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if and when
required, will be available. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets
and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to
continue in existence.
Note
3 – Stock Transactions
Stock
transaction in fiscal 2010:
We issued
355,000 shares of our stock for services during the year ended March 31,
2010. The value of the stock was $1 per share which approximated the
market value at the time the obligations were settled.
We issued
10,416 shares of stock and have unissued but owed 4,836 shares of stock for
payment in kind interest on our debentures. The value assigned to the
transaction varied from $.46 to $1.28 and was based on the approximate market
value at the time the obligations were settled.
We issued
109,700 shares of stock in order to cancel the 438.500 outstanding
options. The value assigned to the transaction was $1 per share and
was based on the approximate market value at the time the exchange was
made.
We issued
204,561 to employees and directors for services. The value of the
stock ranged from $.45 to $1.00 per share and was based on the approximate
market value at the time the obligations were settled.
We
purchased debentures from the holders and in connection with the purchase we
received 75,000 of our shares. We cancelled 70,000 shares by March
31, 2010 and will cancel an additional 5,000 shares. The value
assigned to this acquisition was based on the market value of the shares and
debentures at the time of purchase. We recorded a $30,000 reduction
in equity for this transaction.
Stock
transactions in fiscal 2009:
We issued
2,182 shares of common stock to a Director and chairman of our Audit Committee
for services over the next year. For the year ended March 31, 2009, we recorded
director compensation in the amount $13,000.
Option
and Warrant transactions:
Officers (including officers who are
members of the board of directors), directors, employees and consultants are
eligible to receive options under our stock option plans. We
administer the stock option plans and we determine those persons to whom options
will be granted, the number of options to be granted, the provisions applicable
to each grant and the time periods during which the options may be
exercised. No options may be granted more than ten years after the
date of the adoption of the stock option plans.
Each option granted under the stock
option plans will be exercisable for a term of not more than ten years after the
date of grant. Certain other restrictions will apply in connection
with the plans when some awards may be exercised. In the event of a
change of control (as defined in the stock option plans), the vesting date on
which all options outstanding under the stock option plans may first be
exercised will be accelerated. Generally, all options terminate 90
days after a change of control.
2000-2001
Stock Option Plan
The Board
of Directors approved a stock option plan and our stockholders ratified the plan
on September 25, 2000. The total number of options that can be
granted under the plan is 200,000 shares. At March 31, 2010, there
were no outstanding options.
Stock
Option Plan
On May 4,
2007, we amended and restated the EnerJex Resources, Inc. Stock Option Plan to
rename the plan and to increase the number of shares issuable under the plan to
1,000,000. Our stockholders approved this plan in September of
2007. At March 31, 2010 there were no outstanding
options.
Option
transactions in fiscal 2009:
We
cancelled 20,000 options in accordance with the provisions regarding
terminations in Stock Option Plan.
At March 31, 2009, we included as
expense $67,452 relating to the options that were for services earned over a
one-year period.

5 - Long-Term Debt
Senior
Secured Credit Facility
On July
3, 2008, EnerJex, EnerJex Kansas, and DD Energy entered into a three-year $50
million Senior Secured Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility”) with Texas
Capital Bank, N.A (“TCB”). Borrowings under the Credit Facility will
be subject to a borrowing base limitation based on our current proved oil and
gas reserves and will be subject to semi-annual redeterminations. A
borrowing base redetermination was completed by Texas Capital Bank effective
January 1, 2010. The borrowing base was determined to be $6,746,000
and called for $55,000 Monthly Borrowing Base Reductions (“MBBR”) beginning
February 1, 2010.
The
Credit Facility is secured by a lien on substantially all assets of the Company
and its subsidiaries. The Credit Facility has a term of three years, and all
principal amounts, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, will be due
and payable in full on July 3, 2011. The Credit Facility also
provides for the issuance of letters-of-credit up to a $750,000 sub-limit under
the borrowing base and up to an additional $2.25 million limit not subject to
the borrowing base to support our hedging program. We have borrowed
all of our available borrowing base as of March 31, 2010.
Advances
under the Credit Facility will be in the form of either base rate loans or
Eurodollar loans. The interest rate on the base rate loans fluctuates based upon
the higher of (1) the lender’s “prime rate” and (2) the Federal Funds rate plus
0.50%, plus, in either case, a margin of between 0.0% and 0.5% depending on the
percent of the borrowing base utilized at the time of the credit extension, but
in no event shall be less than five percent (5.0%). The interest rate on the
Eurodollar loans fluctuates based upon the applicable LIBOR rate, plus a margin
of 2.25% to 2.75% depending on the percent of the borrowing base utilized at the
time of the credit extension, but in no event shall be less than five percent
(5.0%). Eurodollar loans may be based upon one, two, three and six month LIBOR
options, except that beginning March 30, 2009 and continuing through the date of
this report, TCB has suspended all LIBOR based funding with maturities less than
90 days due to the extreme volatility in the interest rate market and the
unprecedented spread between the 90 day LIBOR and the shorter term LIBOR
options. A commitment fee of 0.375% on the unused portion of the borrowing base
will accrue, and be payable quarterly in arrears. There was no
commitment fee due at March 31, 2010.
The
Credit Facility includes usual and customary affirmative covenants for credit
facilities of this type and size, as well as customary negative covenants,
including, among others, limitations on liens, mergers, asset sales or
dispositions, payments of dividends, incurrence of additional indebtedness, and
investments. The Credit Facility also requires that we, at the end of each
fiscal quarter beginning with the quarter ending September 30, 2008, maintain a
minimum current assets to current liabilities ratio and a minimum ratio of
EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to
interest expense and at the end of each fiscal quarter beginning with the
quarter ended September 30, 2008 to maintain a minimum ratio of EBITDA to senior
funded debt.
The
Credit Facility was amended August 18, 2009 to implement a minimum interest rate
of five (5.0%) and establish minimum volumes to be hedged of not less than
seventy-five percent (75%) of the proved developed producing reserves
attributable to our interest in the borrowing base oil and gas properties
projected to be produced. The Credit Facility was further amended January
13, 2010 to modify the senior funded debt to EBITDA ratio on a quarterly basis
beginning with the quarter ended December 31, 2009 and to modify the
annualization of the interest coverage ratio, also beginning with the quarter
ended December 31, 2009.The senior funded debt to EBITDA ratio allowed is
6.25:1.00 at December 31, 2009; 5.75:1.00 at March 31, 2010; 5.25:1.00 at June
30, 2010; and 4.75:1.00 at September 30, 2010; and 4.25:1.00 for all quarters
ending after September 30, 2010. We were not in compliance with the
three covenants at March 31, 2010; however, we
are current in principal and interest payments..
Additionally,
TCB and the holders of the debentures entered into a Subordination Agreement
whereby the debentures issued on June 21, 2007 are subordinated to the Credit
Facility.
Debentures
On April
11, 2007, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, Registration Rights
Agreements, Senior Secured Debentures, a Pledge and Security Agreement, a
Secured Guaranty, and other related agreements (the “Financing Agreements”) with
the “Buyers” of a new series of senior secured debentures (the “Debentures”).
Under the terms of the Financing Agreements, we agreed to sell Debentures for a
total purchase price of $9.0 million. In connection with the purchase, we agreed
to issue to the Buyers a total of 1,800,000 shares. The first closing occurred
on April 12, 2007 with a total of $6.3 million in Debentures being sold and the
remaining $2.7 million closing on June 21, 2007. Effective July 7, 2008, we
redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $6.3 million of the Debentures. We
also amended the remaining $2.7 million of aggregate principal Debentures to,
among other things, permit the indebtedness under our Credit Facility,
subordinate the security interests of the debentures to the Credit Facility,
provide for the redemption of the remaining Debentures with the net proceeds
from any next debt or equity offering and eliminate the covenant to maintain
certain production thresholds.
The
Debentures originally had a three-year term, maturing on March 31, 2010, and
bear interest at a rate equal to 10% per annum. Interest is payable quarterly in
arrears on the first day of each succeeding quarter. We may pay interest in
either cash or registered shares of our common stock. The Debentures have no
prepayment penalty so long as we maintain an effective registration statement
with the Securities Exchange Commission and provided we give six (6) business
days prior notice of redemption to the Buyers.
The
proceeds from the Debentures were allocated to the long-term debt and the stock
issued based on the fair market value of each item that we calculated to be $9.0
million. Since each of the instruments had a value equal to 50% of
the total, we allocated $4.5 million to stock and $4.5 million to the
note. The loan discount costs of $4.5 million will accrete as
interest based on the interest method over the period of issue to maturity or
redemption. The amount of interest accreted for the years ended March
31, 2010 and 2009 was $596,108 and
$2,814,095. Of the $2,814,095 interest
accreted during the period ended March 31, 2009, $2,112,267 relates to the
redemption of $6.3 million of the Debentures. At March 31, 2010 all
of the interest has been accreted.
We
incurred debt issue costs totaling $466,835. The debt issue costs are
initially recorded as assets and are amortized to expense on a straight-line
basis over the life of the loan. The amount expensed in the years
ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were $45,929 and $268,453. Of this amount, $195,559
was expensed upon the redemption of $6.3 million of the
Debentures.
The
Debentures originally had a three-year term, maturing on March 31, 2010, and an
interest rate equal to 10% per annum. We further amended the
Debentures in June 2009 to extend the maturity date to September 30, 2010, to
allow us to pay interest in either cash or payment-in-kind interest (an increase
in the amount of principal due) or payment-in-kind shares (issuance of shares of
common stock), and add a provision for the conversion of the debentures into
shares of our common stock. The conversion price on or before May 31,
2010 is equal to $3.00 per share. From June 1, 2010 through the maturity
date, assuming the Debentures have not been redeemed, the conversion price per
share shall be computed as 100.0% of the arithmetic average of the weighted
average price of the common stock on each of the thirty (30) consecutive Trading
Days immediately preceding the conversion date.
Interest
is payable quarterly in arrears on the first day of each succeeding quarter. The
interest rate remains 10% per annum for cash interest payments. The
payment-in-kind interest rate is equal to 12.5% per annum. If
interest payments are made through payment-in-kind interest, we must issue
common stock equal to an additional 2.5% of the quarterly interest payment
due. As of March 31, 2010, we have recorded additional principal on
the Debentures of $368,045 and common stock issued and unissued of
$9,792.
We
amended the Debentures on November 16, 2009 to provide for the tender and
cancellation of shares by the Buyers upon retirement of a portion of the
Debentures in accordance with an agreed upon schedule. We redeemed
$150,000 of the Debentures for $150,000 in cash in accordance with this
amendment during the quarter ended December 31, 2009. As a result,
75,000 shares have been or will be tendered and cancelled. We
recorded a gain on the purchase of debentures of $30,000 based on the relative
fair value of the debentures and stock tendered.
We have
no prepayment penalty so long as we maintain an effective registration statement
with the Securities Exchange Commission and provided we give six (6) business
days prior notice of redemption to the Buyers. During the year ended
March 31, 2010, we repurchased $450,000 of the Debentures for $43,500 resulting
in a gain of $406,500.
Convertible
and Other Long-Term Debt
On August
3, 2006, we sold a $25,000 convertible note that has an interest rate of 6% and
matures August 2, 2010. The note is convertible at any time at the
option of the note holder into shares of our common stock at a conversion rate
of $10.00 per share.
We
financed the purchase of vehicles through a bank. The notes are for
four years and the weighted average interest is 7.2% per
annum. Vehicles collateralize these notes.
Long-term

Note
6 – Oil & Gas Properties
On April
9, 2007, we entered into a “Joint Exploration Agreement” with a shareholder,
MorMeg, LLC, whereby we agreed to advance $4.0 million to a joint operating
account for further development of MorMeg’s Black Oaks leaseholds in exchange
for a 95% working interest in the Black Oaks Project. We will maintain our 95%
working interest until payout, at which time the MorMeg 5% carried working
interest will be converted to a 30% working interest and our working interest
becomes 70%. Payout is generally the point in time when the total cumulative
revenue from the project equals all of the project’s development expenditures
and costs associated with funding. Pursuant to amendments to the
Joint Exploration Agreement, we had until March 31, 2010 to contribute
additional capital toward the Black Oaks Project development. If we elect not to
contribute further capital to the Black Oaks Project prior to the project’s full
development while it is economically viable to do so, or if there is more than a
thirty day delay in project activities due to lack of capital, MorMeg has the
option to cease further joint development and we will receive an undivided
interest in the Black Oaks Project. The undivided interest will be the
proportionate amount equal to the amount that our investment bears to our
investment plus $2.0 million, with MorMeg receiving an undivided interest in
what remains.
In August
of 2007, we entered into a development agreement with Euramerica Energy, Inc.,
or Euramerica, to further the development and expansion of the Gas City Project,
which included 6,600 acres, whereby Euramerica contributed $524,000 in capital
toward the project. Euramerica was granted an option to purchase this project
for $1.2 million with a requirement to invest an additional $2.0 million for
project development by August 31, 2008. We were the operator of the project at a
cost plus 17.5% basis. We received $600,000 of the $1.2 million purchase price
and $500,000 of the $2.0 million development funds. We have recorded a
reduction of $600,000 to our oil & gas properties using full-cost accounting
subject to amortization as of the year ended March 31, 2009. In January 2009,
Euramerica failed to fully fund both the balance of the purchase price
and the remaining development capital owed under the agreements between us and
Euramerica. Therefore, Euramerica has forfeited all of its interest
in the property, including all interests in any wells, improvements or assets,
and all of Euramerica's interest in the property reverts back to
us. In addition, all operating agreements between us and Euramerica
relating to the Gas City Project are null and void. We drilled 22 wells on
behalf of Euramerica under the development agreement. We are currently exploring
options to sell or further develop the Gas City Project through joint venture
partnerships or other opportunities. The gas project remains shut
in.
We
recorded a non-cash impairment of $4,777,723 to the carrying value of our proved
oil and gas properties during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The
impairment is primarily attributable to lower prices for both oil and natural
gas at December 31, 2008. The charge results from the application of the
“ceiling test” under the full cost method of accounting. Under full cost
accounting requirements, the carrying value may not exceed an amount equal to
the sum of the present value of estimated future net revenues (adjusted for cash
flow hedges) less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and
producing the proved reserves, less any related income tax effects. In
calculating future net revenues, current prices and costs used are those as of
the end of the appropriate quarterly period. Such prices are utilized except
where different prices are fixed and determinable from applicable contracts for
the remaining term of those contracts, including the effects of derivatives
qualifying as cash flow hedges. A ceiling test charge occurs when the carrying
value of the oil and gas properties exceeds the full cost ceiling.

however, the timing of such evaluation has not been
determined.

7 – Related party transactions
In August 2008, we paid $20,000 to a
non-employee director and former member of the audit committee for assisting in
the establishment and development of the audit committee and for his involvement
and assistance to the chief executive officer in finalizing the hedging
instrument with BP.
We
have previously entered into consulting agreements and acquired some leases and
utilize entities affiliated with a Director. The Director was paid
$55,000 for consulting and received stock for the extension of certain
agreements totaling $65,000.
Note
8 – Commitments and Contingencies
We have a
lease agreement that expires in September 30, 2013. Rent expense for
the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009 were approximately $71,000 and future
minimum payments are approximately $72,000 to $75,600 for years ended March 31,
2011-2013 and $38,750 for the year ended March 31, 2014.
We, as a
lessee and operator of oil and gas properties, are subject to various federal,
state and local laws and regulations relating to discharge of materials into,
and protection of, the environment. These laws and regulations may, among other
things, impose liability on the lessee under an oil and gas lease for the cost
of pollution clean-up resulting from operations and subject to the lessee to
liability for pollution damages. In some instances, the Company may be directed
to suspend or cease operations in the affected
area. As of
March 31, 2010, we have no reserve for environmental remediation and are
not aware of any environmental claims.
Note
9 – Income Taxes
There was
no current or deferred income tax expense (benefit) for the years ended March
31, 2010 and 2009 because there was a net loss and a valuation allowance that
offsets the deferred tax amounts. At March 31, 2010 we have a net
operating loss carry forward of approximately $9,597,000 expiring in
2021-2024.

ASC 740, Income
Taxes (“ASC
740”) prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the
financial statement recognition and measurement of income tax positions taken or
expected to be taken in an income tax return. For those benefits to
be recognized, an income tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be
sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. Our policy
is to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as
income tax benefit (expense) in our Consolidated Statements of
Operations. For the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009,
respectively, we recorded no interest expense and penalties related to
unrecognized tax benefits associated with uncertain tax positions recognized in
our provision for income taxes.
Note
10 – Fair Value Measurements
We hold
certain financial assets which are required to be measured at fair value on a
recurring basis in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 157, “Fair Value
Measurements” (“ASC Topic 820-10”).. ASC Topic 820-10
establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation
techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority
to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable
inputs (Level 3 measurements). ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value as
the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the
measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell
the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset
or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic
820-10 are described below:
Level
1. Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access. The
Company’s Level 1 assets include cash, receivable, payables, notes payable and
convertible debt.
Level
2. Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities,
quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not
active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable
data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. We
consider the derivative liability to be Level
2. We determine the fair value of derivative
liability utilizing various inputs, including NYMEX price quotations and
contract terms.
Level 3.
Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity
and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. We
have no level 3 assets or liabilities.
Our
derivative instruments consist of variable to fixed price commodity
swaps.

11 – Derivative Instruments
We have
entered into certain derivative or physical arrangements with respect to
portions of our crude oil production to reduce our sensitivity to volatile
commodity prices and/or to meet hedging requirements under our Credit Facility. We
believe that these derivative arrangements, although not free of risk, allow us
to achieve a more predictable cash flow and to reduce exposure to commodity
price fluctuations. However, derivative arrangements limit the
benefit of increases in the prices of crude oil. Moreover, our
derivative arrangements apply only to a portion of our production.
We have an Intercreditor
Agreement in place between us; our counterparty, BP Corporation North America,
Inc. (“BP”); and our agent, Texas Capital Bank, N.A. (“TCB”), which allows TCB
to also act as agent for BP for the purpose of holding and enforcing any liens
or security interests resulting from our derivative
arrangements. Therefore, we generally are not required to post
additional collateral, including cash.

12 – Income (Loss) Per Common Share
The
numerator for basic earning and diluted per share is income (loss) available to
common stockholders.
Potential
dilutive securities (stock options, warrants and convertible debt) in 2010 and
2009 have not been considered since we reported a net loss and, accordingly,
their effects would be antidilutive. There were no dilutive shares
2010 and 2009.
Note
13 – Subsequent Events
On August
3, 2009, we awarded a total of 151,750 shares of our common stock for 2009
incentive bonuses to our employees. Such shares were issued to the employees in
June of 2010. The shares were awarded pursuant to the EnerJex Resources Stock
Incentive Plan and registered on the Form S-8 filed on October 20,
2008.

Gas
and oil Reserve Quantities
Our
ownership interests in estimated quantities of proved oil and gas reserves and
changes in net proved reserves all of which are located in the United States are
summarized below. Proved reserves are estimated quantities of natural
gas and oil that geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable
certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing
economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are those that are
expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and
operating methods. Reserves are stated in thousand cubic feet (mcf) of natural
gas and barrels (stb) of oil. Geological and engineering estimates by Miller and
Lents, LTD of proved natural gas and oil reserves at one point in time are
highly interpretive, inherently imprecise and subject to ongoing revisions that
may be substantial in amount. Although every reasonable effort is made to ensure
that the reserve estimates are accurate, by their nature reserve estimates are
generally less precise than other estimates presented in connection with
financial statement disclosures.

15 – Restatement of Financial Statements
In
connection with the preparation of our audited financial statements for the year
ended March 31, 2010 we determined there were errors in the reserves as
determined by the outside engineers. We have had to restate our
financial statements to reflect the change in the reserves estimated and the
depletion that was taken based on our reserves. We have restated
depletion by reducing the expense by $201,039. We have also restated
Note 14 Supplemental Oil and Natural Gas Reserve Information (Unaudited) for gas
and oil reserve quantities, the results of operations from oil and natural gas
producing activities, standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows
and changes in standardized measure of discounted future net cash
flows.
The
following tables present the effect of the restated adjustment by financial
statement line item for the Consolidated Balance Sheet, Consolidated Statement
of Operations, Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) and
Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows as of and for the year ended March 31,
2010.
