Part I

Item 1. Business

General Introduction

Hyperdynamics Corporation is among the most unique emerging independent oil and gas exploration and production companies in the world today. We own exclusive rights for exploration and exploitation of oil and gas in a 31,000 square mile concession off the coast of the Republic of Guinea in West Africa. This is the largest offshore acreage position of any company involved in exploration and production in West Africa. We entered the oil and gas industry in 2002 under difficult economics with the price of oil at less than $20 per barrel. We nevertheless considered the hydrocarbon potential in Guinea, West Africa to be a good opportunity and we made a proposal to Guinea, which was accepted, to perform a new regional study of their offshore territory The worldwide demand for oil has increased over the last several years and is anticipated to continue to increase. We are continuing our exploration work with a goal to enhance our potential to discover world class reserves offshore Guinea.

In addition to our Guinea concession, we hold working interests in several oil and gas properties in Northeast Louisiana. At June 30, 2007, we had 25,133 BOE of proven reserves related to these Louisiana properties. In addition, on July 1, 2007, we acquired an 85% working interest in approximately 20 producing wells and 1,150 acres of oil and gas leases in Louisiana. These properties are subject to overriding royalty interests of up to 27.46%. In addition, the seller, who will remain the operator of the properties, retained a 15% working interest. However, Hyperdynamics will pay 100% of the working interest expenses up to $4,000,000. We plan to continue acquiring and developing proved reserves on a global basis

We operate two business segments, domestic and international, under the structure of five separate corporations as follows:

HDY	“Hyperdynamics Corporation” is the parent company listed on the American Stock Exchange under the stock symbol “HDY”.

HYDR	“HYD Resources Corporation” is a subsidiary that handles all of our oil and gas operations in Louisiana. HYDR owns a work-over rig and oil field maintenance equipment. HDY owns 100% of HYDR. HYDR is our business segment that explores for and produces oil domestically in Louisiana.

TPC	“Trendsetter Production Company” is an authorized oil and gas operator in Louisiana. TPC is owned 100% by HYDR and is in our HYDR business segment.

SCS	“SCS Corporation” is a subsidiary engaged in oil and gas exploration activities located offshore Guinea, West Africa. HDY owns 100% of SCS. “SCS” is the name of a business segment of HDY that is composed of our oil and gas exploration activity in Guinea.

SCSG	“SCS Corporation Guinee SARL” is a Guinea limited liability company located in Conakry, Guinea. We own 100% of SCSG, which was formed to manage the business associated with SCS's farmed out 2002 Oil and Gas Production and Sharing Contract and the 2006 PSC discussed below with the government of the Republic of Guinea. SCSG is owned 100% by SCS and is part of our SCS business segment operating in Guinea.

Guinea Production Sharing Contract

On September 22, 2006, after approximately thirteen months of open and transparent negotiations, the Republic of Guinea and our wholly owned subsidiary, SCS Corporation signed a new 2006 Production Sharing Contract (“2006 PSC”). This new contract reset the entire exploration program for Guinea and recognized SCS Corporation for the work it had accomplished since 2002. The contract was filed as an exhibit attached to the company's 8K filed on September 28, 2006.

The 2006 PSC gives us exclusive rights to explore and develop approximately 31,000 square miles off the coast of Guinea. However, certain provisions of the contract would require us to surrender 64% (approximately 20,000 square miles) of the contract area upon the passage of a “Project of Law”, a Presidential Decree and a Supreme Court ruling. The area ultimately surrendered would be selected by Hyperdynamics, but we would retain a priority non-exclusive right to participate in the development of the surrendered contract area. Although the PSC is a legally binding contract under Guinea’s 1986 Petroleum Code, the process of passing a law, obtaining a Presidential Decree and a Supreme Court ruling effectively codifies the PSC into Guinea law, thereby strengthening our concession within the contract area. Furthermore, we expect, through the priority rights granted in the PSC, to continue our participation in the surrendered contract area and still have exclusive rights to the remaining 36% (approximately 11,000 square miles)of the contract area. Until the passages of the events mentioned above, we retain the exclusive right to explore and exploit 100% of the 31,000 square mile concession. As such, we expect to continue aggressively pursuing our exploration efforts within the concession.

Table of Contents

To explain in more detail, the minimum rights that we will maintain going forward include:

Exclusive rights for exploration, development, and production for approximately 11,000 square miles of our choosing from the total contract area consisting of 31,000 square miles. All benefits and obligations surrounding these minimum exclusive rights are determined by the provisions of the 2006 PSC; and

Non-exclusive right to participate in any other development of the area not retained by us in (a) above or in the area which exclusive rights are surrendered and which totals approximately 20,000 square miles from the original contract area of 31,000 square miles. The ultimate benefits to us regarding these rights could be controlled by several factors. We could negotiate additional contracts on a priority basis or participate with others on an equal basis, both of which could be controlled by new agreements that we negotiate.

Thus, if and when any surrender occurs as explained above, the non-exclusive priority participation rights do not prevent us from acquiring additional exclusive rights in the surrendered area directly from Guinea on a priority basis through additional contracts. Short of entering into any additional exclusive contracts, we will have the priority right to participate on an equal basis with anyone else within the resulting 20,000 square mile nonexclusive area.

The Exclusive Rights allow us to develop the exclusive contract area at our discretion and expense subject to the terms and conditions of the 2006 PSC. Some of the major terms to the 2006 PSC are that the Royalty to the Government will be 10%. The cost recovery percentage available to us will be 75%. The exploitation period(s) for each area specified as an exploitation area will be for 25 years with two ten year automatic extensions available for a total of 45 years. Each well in the exploitation area will have its own exploitation period. .. Refer to item 2 for additional information.

Primary Multi-Channel Exploration Strategies

Our business plan incorporates a multi-channel approach to exploring and developing our extensive contract area. We will continue on our own to perfect drilling targets and ultimately implement a drilling program on one or more of our targets. Simultaneously, we will continue to consider the possibility for exploration partners to work with us on all or parts of our concession. While we have used geological and geophysical talents of consulting firms such as GeoExperts and GlobalSanteFe’s Applied Drilling Technologies, we are currently in the process of hiring internal staff to match up with the development requirements of our world class asset. While our internal exploration team is coming together, Geoexperts is providing staff on a contractual basis. Geoexperts consultants include individuals that have the experience of developing hundreds of successful offshore drilling targets in over 40 major basins around the world. Going forward, our geo-scientists will fulfill our work programs and develop scientifically sound drilling targets.

While on an ongoing basis we intend to maintain an open invitation to oil companies as possible partners for joint exploration and development, we are not relying on such partnerships to move our exploration efforts forward. As indicated by our multi-channel business plan strategy, we recognize that certain Guinea industries (such as the aluminum industry) are dependent on natural gas and we are evaluating special programs to help accelerate natural gas discovery within our concession.

Political Climate, US Interests, and Social Responsibility in Guinea

We have made substantial investments in our Guinea operations through our wholly-owned subsidiary SCSG, which was established in 2005. In addition, our Chief Executive, Kent Watts, and our Vice President of Guinea Affairs, Famourou Kourouma have made substantial social investments to establish goodwill among the Guinea people and its government. Our board of directors has recognized a serious need for making investments in socially responsible programs benefiting the people of Guinea. We have implemented a public relations program to educate the Guinea people and its government about the importance of their petroleum resources and our role in helping Guinea realize the benefits from exploiting these resources. Guinea is an emerging democracy and it has unique social, political and economic challenges. Public opinion strongly influences the political decision-making process. Therefore, our public relations and social programs will remain a strong strategy to maintain a positive public opinion about us in Guinea.

Table of Contents

While we see a need for strong public relations and socially responsible programs we have also worked very hard to develop a close working relationship with our government and the US embassy in Guinea. We have worked with the outgoing Ambassador Jackson McDonald and now we are beginning to work with the newly appointed Ambassador Phillip Carter. We communicate with the State Department of the US government so that they are fully informed as to our legal position, contractual rights, and any potential problems that arise. Additionally, in the last several months, we have begun the process of raising awareness among government officials in the US congress about our efforts and our potential to discover world class oil resources offshore Guinea. To achieve that end, we engaged the firm of Patton Boggs as our lobbyist firm in Washington DC. The lobbying firm has assisted us in coordinating our efforts to interface with the government of Guinea with those of the United States.

Current and Future Exploration Programs Off the Coast of Guinea

On August 22, 2007, we announced our 2007 work program, which includes the new acquisition and study of: aeromagnetic and gravity survey data; additional 2-D seismic survey data; and the acquisition and analysis of onshore oil seeps. We have acquired approximately 5,000 kilometers of proprietary 2-D seismic data from previous exploration programs that occurred in 2002 and 2003. Our key technical contractor, GeoExperts, studied this data and many other proprietary studies during 2006 and 2007. Most importantly, and of great value, is that these studies comprise the largest knowledge base in existence concerning the Guinean Offshore. The 2007 program is expected to build substantially on this technical foundation. The 2007 forward exploration program is an important step toward fulfillment of the first period work requirements under the 2006 PSC. This work period requires us to acquire, process, and interpret new seismic in a scientific process to result in exploration well targets we are ready to drill. We have been studying the available data with members of the international petroleum community and will continue to work to better identify and confirm the numerous hydrocarbon plays and leads, with the ultimate goal of defining drillable prospects. At the beginning of the 2007 exploration program the possible plays and leads identified included the Guinea-Bissau salt province, shelf carbonate build-ups, Paleozoic tilted fault blocks, Mesozoic half grabens, deltas and turbidites along with tertiary channel sands.

Our geoscientists believe that the path to identifying actual drilling targets will include the acquisition of both new 2-D and 3-D seismic data and subsequent processing and interpretation of this data. In the next month, the 2007 exploration program will culminate with a design for this seismic acquisition program that is based on all of the foundation of technical knowledge we have obtained thus far. From this data acquisition program design, we can move aggressively forward towards our goal of an exploratory drilling program.

New Producing Properties Purchased in Louisiana

On July 1, 2007, pursuant to the Working Interest Purchase Agreement between Rabb Resources Limited, Rabb Contracting Company, LLC, Claude L. Rabb (collectively, “RABB”), and our subsidiaries HYDR and TPC, we acquired an 85% working interest in approximately 20 producing wells and 1,150 acres of oil and gas leases in Louisiana. The purchase was effective June 12, 2007. The properties purchased under this agreement are subject to overriding royalty interests of up to 27.46%. In addition, the seller, who will remain the operator of the properties, retained a 15% working interest. Accordingly, Hyperdynamics owns approximately 57.54% net revenue interest in the new properties. Hyperdynamics will pay 100% of the working interest expenses, including work-over and new development costs, up to $4,000,000. Subsequent working interest expenses, except drilling costs, for which Hyperdynamics will pay 100%, are shared pro rata according to the working interest.

When we purchased the RABB leases the daily production was approximately 40 to 50 barrels, or net production of 23 – 28 barrels per day. By the end of October we project that daily gross production will reach approximately 130 to as high as 200 barrels per day solely from the RABB leases, and without drilling new wells on those leases. This would result in net production of 74 – 115 barrels per day. We are continuing to work to increase this production and working to reach these goals and then maximize our lease production from there.

While the company continues to explore its major asset offshore West Africa, we continue our strategy to increase the company’s production revenues to provide positive cash flow from operations, cover corporate overhead, and allow the company to make a profit on an operating basis.

History of the Company's Concession Offshore the Republic of Guinea, West Africa

In early 2002, SCS management began to evaluate the viability of an oil and gas concession off the coast of The Republic of Guinea, West Africa (“Guinea”). After SCS's review of older seismic data collected from that concession, we decided that the concession provided a good business opportunity. We negotiated various agreements to revitalize the exploration work in the region. We are currently operating under the 2006 PSC. From the inception of our involvement in Guinea beginning in 2002, we, in conjunction with certain key vendors, have accomplished critical exploration work including:

History of HYDR's Domestic Oil Field Service and Production

In April 2004, we acquired HYD Resources Corporation. At the time of the acquisition, HYD Resources Corporation had approximately $375,000 worth of oil field equipment and other assets. HYD Resources Corporation also had no prior history of operations. HYD Resources Corporation currently engages in oil and gas exploration and production, and services within the United States. Thus far, all of our activity is in Louisiana.

In January 2005, Hyperdynamics acquired an inactive company from the former owners of HYD Resources Corporation named Trendsetter Production Company (“TPC”). TPC is an authorized operator in the state of Louisiana. This immediately made us an oil and gas operator.

We evaluate the performance of these two companies (HYD Resources Corporation and Trendsetter Production Company) as a single business unit through our business segment named HYD Resources (“HYDR”).

In the last fiscal year, we have endeavored to improve our operating efficiency through improvements to production infrastructure and service capability. During this same time, we sold approximately 21,142 barrels of oil as compared to 14,091 barrels in the previous fiscal year. The increased volume is attributable to workover of existing wells and improvements to the lease infrastructure.

Going forward HYDR plans to continue performing work to improve its production on its existing leaseholds and drill new development wells on these leases to most fully exploit the production potential. We are also evaluating new opportunities such as acquiring additional shallow production acreage in areas that have previously or are currently producing oil, drilling new wells on acquired properties, re-completing wells that have produced in the past, and updating the related production facilities associated with those wells.

Employees and Independent Contractors

We currently have 23 full time employees and two part time employees. Additionally, we use independent contractors to minimize fixed overhead. No employees are represented by a union. We believe that our labor relations are good.

Alliance Partnerships, Key Vendors and Technical Certifications

Competition.

Many companies and individuals engage in drilling for gas and oil and there is competition for the most desirable prospects. We will encounter intense competition from other companies and other entities in the sale of our oil and gas. We could be competing with numerous gas and oil companies which may have financial resources significantly greater than ours. The quantities of oil and gas that we may produce and deliver may be affected by factors beyond our control, such as the inability of the wells to deliver at the necessary quality and pressure, premature exhaustion of reserves, changes in governmental regulations affecting allowable production and priority allocations, and price limitations imposed by federal and state regulatory agencies.

Key Customers.

During the fiscal year, oil production from our Louisiana properties was purchased by two customers, Plains Marketing LLC and Shell Trading. In September 2006, we entered a contract with Shell Trading to be the sole purchaser of our oil production in Louisiana. Louisiana Office of Conservation rules prohibit us from maintaining more than one purchaser at any given time.

Research and Development.

We do not expend a material amount on research and development.

Cost of Compliance with Environmental Laws.

Because we are engaged in extracting natural resources, our business is subject to various Federal, state and local provisions regarding the environment. Compliance with environmental laws may, in certain circumstances, necessitate significant capital outlays, affect our earnings potential, and cause material changes in our current and proposed business activities. At the present time, however, the environmental laws do not materially hinder nor adversely affect our business. Capital expenditures relating to environmental control facilities have not been prohibitive to our operations since our inception. There was a cleanup that occurred in January of 2007 as a result of an oil transfer line rupture on one of our leases in Concordia Parish Louisiana. The cost of the cleanup and remediation was covered by insurance. We have abided by and are in compliance with all applicable environmental laws.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the following risk factors before purchasing our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones we face. There may be additional risks and uncertainties that are not known to us or that we do not consider to be material at this time. If the events described in these risks occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations would likely suffer. This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. This section discusses the risk factors that might cause those differences.

Risks about the Oil and Gas Industry

OIL AND GAS PRICES ARE VOLATILE.

Our revenues, cash flow, operating results, financial condition and ability to borrow funds or obtain additional capital depend substantially on the prices that we receive for oil and gas production. Declines in oil and gas prices may adversely affect our financial condition, liquidity, ability to obtain financing and operating results. Lower oil and gas prices also may reduce the amount of oil and gas that we can produce economically. High oil and gas prices could preclude acceptance of our business model. Depressed prices in the future could have a negative effect on our future financial results. Historically, oil and gas prices and markets have been volatile, with prices fluctuating widely, and they are likely to continue to be volatile. Prices for oil and gas are subject to wide fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in supply and demand, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control. These factors include:

the domestic and foreign supplies of oil;

the level of consumer product demand;

weather conditions;

political conditions in oil producing regions, including the Middle East;

the ability of the members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries to agree to and maintain oil price and production controls;

the price of foreign imports;

actions of governmental authorities;

domestic and foreign governmental regulations;

the price, availability and acceptance of alternative fuels;

overall economic conditions.

These factors and the volatile nature of the energy markets make it impossible to predict with any certainty future oil and gas prices. Our inability to respond appropriately to changes in these factors could negatively affect our profitability.

INVESTMENT IN THE OIL AND GAS BUSINESS IS RISKY.

Oil and gas exploration and development are inherently speculative activities. There is no certain method to determine whether or not a given lease will produce oil or gas or yield oil or gas in sufficient quantities and quality to result in commercial production. There is always the risk that development of a lease may result in dry holes or in the discovery of oil or gas that is not commercially feasible to produce. There is no guarantee that a producing asset will continue to produce. Because of the high degree of risk involved, there can be no assurance that we will recover any portion of our investment or that our investment in leases will be profitable.

Table of Contents

THERE ARE DRILLING AND OPERATIONAL HAZARDS.

The oil and gas business involves a variety of operating risks, including:

blowouts, cratering and explosions;

mechanical and equipment problems;

uncontrolled flows of oil and gas or well fluids;

fires;

marine hazards with respect to offshore operations;

formations with abnormal pressures;

pollution and other environmental risks;

natural disasters.

Any of these events could result in loss of human life, significant damage to property, environmental pollution, impairment of our operations and substantial losses. Locating pipelines near populated areas, including residential areas, commercial business centers and industrial sites, could increase these risks. In accordance with customary industry practice, we will maintain insurance against some, but not all, of these risks and losses. The occurrence of any of these events not fully covered by insurance could have an adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

WE ARE SUBJECT TO GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS.

Oil and gas operations in the United States are subject to extensive government regulation and to interruption or termination by governmental authorities on account of ecological and other considerations. The Environmental Protection Agency of the United States and the various state departments of environmental affairs closely regulate gas and oil production effects on air, water and surface resources. Furthermore, proposals concerning regulation and taxation of the gas and oil industry are constantly before Congress. It is impossible to predict future proposals that might be enacted into law and the effect they might have on us. Thus, restrictions on gas and oil activities, such as production restrictions, price controls, tax increases and pollution and environmental controls may have an adverse effect on us.

THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY IS SUBJECT TO HAZARDS RELATED TO POLLUTION AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES.

Hazards in the drilling and/or the operation of gas and oil properties, such as accidental leakage or spillage, are sometimes encountered. Such hazards may cause substantial liabilities to third parties or governmental entities, the payment of which could reduce distributions or result in the loss of our leases. Although it is anticipated that insurance will be obtained by third party operators for our benefit, we may be subject to liability for pollution and other damages due to environmental events which cannot be insured against due to prohibitive premium costs, or for other reasons. Environmental regulatory matters also could increase substantially the cost of doing business, may cause delays in producing oil and gas or require the modification of operations in certain areas.

Our operations are subject to numerous stringent and complex laws and regulations at the Federal, state and local levels governing the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to environmental protection. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in the assessment of administrative, civil and criminal penalties, the imposition of remedial requirements, and the imposition of injunctions to force future compliance.

The Oil Pollution Act of 1990 and its implementing regulations impose a variety of requirements related to the prevention of oil spills, and liability for damages resulting from such spills in United States waters. OPA 90 imposes strict joint and several liability on responsible parties for oil removal costs and a variety of public and private damages, including natural resource damages. While liability limits apply in some circumstances, a party cannot take advantage of liability limits if the spill was caused by gross negligence or willful misconduct or resulted from violation of a Federal safety, construction or operation regulation. If a party fails to report a spill or to cooperate fully in a cleanup, liability limits likewise do not apply. Even if applicable, the liability limits for offshore facilities require the responsible party to pay all removal costs, plus up to $75 million in other damages. For onshore facilities, the total liability limit is $350 million. OPA 90 also requires a responsible party at an offshore facility to submit proof of its financial ability to cover environmental cleanup and restoration costs that could be incurred in connection with an oil spill.

Table of Contents

The Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, also known as the “Superfund” law, and analogous state laws impose joint and several liability on certain classes of persons that are considered to have contributed to the release of a “hazardous substance” into the environment. These parties include the owner or operator of the site where the release occurred, and those that disposed or arranged for the disposal of hazardous substances found at the site. Responsible parties under CERCLA may be subject to joint and several liability for remediation costs at the site, and may also be liable for natural resource damages. Additionally, it is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file tort claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by hazardous substances released into the environment.

State and local statutes and regulations require permits for drilling operations, drilling bonds and reports concerning operations. In addition, there are state statutes, rules and regulations governing conservation matters, including the unitization or pooling of oil and gas properties, establishment of maximum rates of production from oil and gas wells and the spacing, plugging and abandonment of such wells. Such statutes and regulations may limit the rate at which oil and gas could otherwise be produced from our properties and may restrict the number of wells that may be drilled on a particular lease or in a particular field.

Risks About Our Business

GEOPOLITICAL INSTABILITY.

We conduct business in Guinea, which is in a region of the world where there have been recent civil wars, revolutionary wars, and internecine conflicts. Although Guinea is a peaceful nation, external or internal political forces could potentially create a political or military climate that might cause a change in political leadership or the outbreak of hostilities. Such a change could result in our having to cease our Guinea operations and result in the loss or delay of our rights under the PSC.

GEOPOLITICAL POLITICS.

We entered into a 2006 Production Sharing Contract with the Republic of Guinea. The government of the Republic of Guinea could unlawfully terminate this contract.

WE MAY HAVE WRITE DOWNS OF OUR ASSETS DUE TO PRICE VOLATILITY.

SEC accounting rules require us to review the carrying value of our oil and gas properties on a quarterly basis for possible write down or impairment. Under these rules, capitalized costs of proved reserves may not exceed a ceiling calculated at the present value of estimated future net revenues from those proved reserves. Capital costs in excess of the ceiling must be permanently written down. A decline in oil and natural gas prices could cause a write down which would negatively affect our net income.

ESTIMATES OF OIL AND GAS RESERVES ARE UNCERTAIN AND MAY VARY SUBSTANTIALLY FROM ACTUAL PRODUCTION.

We do not have any reserve reports or geology or petroleum engineering reports related to our foreign property. We do have a third-party reserve report for our Louisiana properties prepared by Ryder Scott Company, LP. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved reserves and in projecting future rates of production and timing of expenditures, including many factors beyond our control. A reserve report is the estimated quantities of oil and gas based on reports prepared by third party reserve engineers. Reserve reporting is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact manner. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available geological, geophysical, engineering and economic data and the precision of engineering and judgment. As a result, estimates of different engineers often vary. The estimates of reserves, future cash flows and present value are based on various assumptions, including those prescribed by the SEC relating to oil and natural gas prices, drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability of funds, and are inherently imprecise.

THE UNAVAILABILITY OR HIGH COST OF DRILLING RIGS, EQUIPMENT, SUPPLIES, PERSONNEL AND OILFIELD SERVICES COULD ADVERSELY IMPACT US.

Drilling activity offshore Guinea will require that we have access to an offshore drilling rig. Either unavailability, shortages or increases in the cost of drilling rigs, equipment, supplies or personnel could delay or adversely affect our Guinea operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary equipment or that services will be available at economical prices.

Table of Contents

FAILURE TO FIND OIL AND GAS.

We may not be able to find oil and gas in commercial quantities, and if not, our future revenue potential would be substantially reduced.

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO ACQUIRE OIL AND GAS LEASES.

To engage in oil and gas exploration, we must first acquire rights to conduct exploration and recovery activities on identified prospects. We may not be successful in acquiring farmouts, permits, lease options, leases or other rights to explore for or recover oil and gas. Other major and independent oil and gas companies with financial resources significantly greater than ours may bid against us for the purchase of oil and gas leases. If we or our subsidiaries are unsuccessful in acquiring these leases, permits, options and other interests, our prospect inventory for exploration and drilling could be significantly reduced, and our business, results of operations and financial condition could be substantially harmed.

EXPANSION OF OUR EXPLORATION PROGRAM WILL REQUIRE CAPITAL FROM OUTSIDE SOURCES.

We do not currently have the financial resources to explore and drill all of our currently identified prospects. Absent raising additional capital or entering into joint venture agreements, we will not be able to increase our exploration and drilling operations at the projected rate. This could limit the size of our business. There is no assurance that capital will be available in the future to us or that capital will be available under terms acceptable to us. We will need to raise additional money, either through the sale of equity securities (which could dilute the existing stockholders' interest), through the entering of joint venture agreements (which, while limiting our risk, could reduce our ownership interest in particular assets), or from borrowings from third parties (which could result in additional assets being pledged as collateral and which would increase our debt service requirements).

Additional capital could be obtained from a combination of funding sources, many of which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. These potential funding sources, and the potential adverse effects attributable thereto, include:

cash flow from operating activities, which is sensitive to prices we receive for oil and natural gas and the success of current and future operations;

borrowings from financial institutions, which may subject us to certain restrictive covenants, including covenants restricting our ability to raise additional capital or pay dividends;

debt offerings, which would increase our leverage and add to our need for cash to service such debt (which could result in additional assets being pledged as collateral and which could increase our debt service requirements);

additional offerings of equity securities, which would cause dilution of our common stock;

sales of prospects generated by the exploration program, which would reduce future revenues from that program;

additional sales of interests in our projects, which could reduce future revenues.

Our ability to raise additional capital will depend on the results of operations and the status of various capital and industry markets at the time such additional capital is sought. Capital may not become available to us from any particular source or at all. Even if additional capital becomes available, it may not be on terms acceptable to us. Failure to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms may have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

WE HAVE COMPETITION FROM OTHER COMPANIES.

A large number of companies and individuals engage in drilling for gas and oil, and there is competition for the most desirable prospects. We will encounter intense competition from other companies and other entities in the sale of our gas and oil production. We could be competing with numerous gas and oil companies which may have financial resources significantly greater than ours. Further, the quantities of gas and oil to be delivered by us may be affected by factors beyond our control, such as the inability of the wells to deliver at the necessary quality and pressure, premature exhaustion of reserves, changes in governmental regulations affecting allowable production and priority allocations, and price limitations imposed by Federal and state regulatory agencies.

WE DEPEND ON OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY VENDORS AND MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN ADEQUATE SERVICES.

We are and will continue to be dependent on industry vendors for the success of our oil and gas exploration projects. These contracted services include, but are not limited to, accounting, drilling, completion, workovers (remedial down hole work on a well) and reentries (entering an existing well and changing the direction and/or depth of a well), geological evaluations, engineering, leasehold acquisition (landmen), operations, legal, investor relations/public relations, and prospect generation. We could be harmed if we fail to attract quality industry vendors to participate in the drilling of prospects which we identify or if our industry vendors do not perform satisfactorily. We often have, and will continue to have, little control over factors that would influence the performance of our vendors.

WE RELY ON THIRD PARTIES FOR PRODUCTION SERVICES AND PROCESSING FACILITIES.

The marketability of our production depends upon the proximity of our reserves to, and the capacity of, facilities and third party services, including oil and natural gas gathering systems, pipelines, trucking or terminal facilities, and processing facilities. The unavailability or lack of capacity of such services and facilities could result in the shut-in of producing wells or the delay or discontinuance of development plans for properties. A shut-in or delay or discontinuance could adversely affect our financial condition. In addition, Federal and state regulation of oil and natural gas production and transportation affect our ability to produce and market oil and natural gas on a profitable basis.

OUR APPROACH TO TITLE ASSURANCE COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS.

We intend to purchase oil and gas interests and leases from third parties or directly from the mineral fee owners as the inventory upon which we will perform our exploration activities. The existence of a title deficiency can render a lease worthless and can result in a large expense to us. Title insurance covering the mineral leaseholds is not generally available and in all instances, we forego the expense of retaining lawyers to examine the title to the mineral interest to be placed under lease or already placed under lease until the drilling block is assembled and ready to be drilled. We rely upon the judgment of oil and gas lease brokers or experienced landmen who perform the field work in examining records in the appropriate governmental office before attempting to acquire or place under lease a specific mineral interest. This is customary practice in the oil and gas industry. However, if there is a defect in title, the amount that we paid for such oil and gas leases or interests is generally lost. If the defective lease covers acreage which is critical to the success of a particular project, the loss could have an adverse effect by making the target area potentially not drillable.

PRICE OF OIL AND GAS MARKET RISK

Our functional currency is the US dollar. Our revenue is directly related to the price of oil and gas. Assuming that we sell one barrel of oil, then a one dollar decrease in the price that we get for that barrel of oil will lower our revenue by one dollar, and correspondingly so for a one dollar increase in price. The same is true for changes in the price of natural gas. We intend to sell oil and gas immediately upon lifting to the wellhead. We do not contemplate retaining any oil and gas inventory. We do not hedge any market risk. Although the prices of oil and gas have recently increased substantially, there is no assurance that the price of oil and gas will not fall dramatically in the future.

WE HAVE A HISTORY OF LOSSES.

We have experienced substantial operating losses. We expect to incur significant operating losses until sales increase. We will also need to raise sufficient funds to finance our activities. We may be unable to achieve or sustain profitability.

Table of Contents

WE HAVE AN ACCUMULATED DEFICIT AND MAY INCUR ADDITIONAL LOSSES.

We have a substantial accumulated deficit. We may not be able to meet our debts as they become due. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow or obtain funds to pay debt, we will be in default.

WE MAY EXPERIENCE POTENTIAL FLUCTUATIONS IN RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Our future revenues may be affected by a variety of factors, many of which are outside our control, including (a) the success of project results; (b) swings in availability of drilling services needed to implement projects and the pricing of such services; (c) a volatile oil and gas pricing market which may make certain projects that we undertake uneconomic; (d) the ability to attract new independent professionals with prospects in a timely and effective manner; and (e) the amount and timing of operating costs and capital expenditures relating to conducting our business operations and infrastructure. As a result of our limited operating history and the emerging nature of our business plan, it is difficult to forecast revenues or earnings accurately, which may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter.

IF WE CANNOT OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FINANCING, WE MAY HAVE TO CURTAIL OPERATIONS AND MAY ULTIMATELY CEASE TO EXIST.

Our financial statements reflect recurring, ongoing and substantial yearly net losses, and negative cash flows from operations. These conditions require sufficient additional funding or alternative sources of capital to meet our working capital needs. We have raised capital by selling common stock, issuing convertible debentures and our equity line of credit which will also requires us to issue common stock. However, future financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we cannot raise funds on acceptable terms, or achieve positive cash flow, we may be forced to curtail operations or may ultimately cease to exist.

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO RAISE THE REQUIRED CAPITAL TO CONDUCT OUR OPERATIONS; EQUITY LINE OF CREDIT.

We may require additional capital resources in order to conduct our operations. If we cannot obtain additional funding, we may make reductions in the scope and size of our operations. In order to grow and expand our business, and to introduce our services to the marketplace, we will need to raise additional funds. We have an equity line of credit. We have made seven puts on the equity line of credit since February 2006 in the aggregate amount of $1,370,075. At September 28, 2007, the remaining amount available for us to draw down on the equity line of credit is $18,629,925. The equity line of credit expires in February 2009, after which we will not be able to draw down on the equity line of credit even if has not been fully utilized by us. The Cornell agreements limit our use of the equity line of credit. Whether as a result of the Cornell Agreements or as a result of our discretion, between now and February 2009, we may not have drawn down the full $18,629,925 currently available in the equity line of credit.

RISKS ABOUT OUR SECURITIES

WE MAY ISSUE ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK IN THE FUTURE, WHICH COULD CAUSE DILUTION TO ALL SHAREHOLDERS.

We may seek to raise additional equity capital in the future. Any issuance of additional shares of our common stock will dilute the percentage ownership interest of all shareholders and may dilute the book value per share of our common stock.

SHAREHOLDERS COULD INCUR NEGATIVE IMPACT DUE TO THE REMOVAL OF THE LEGEND ON A SIGNIFICANT PERCENTAGE OF OUR OUTSTANDING SHARES OF COMMON STOCK, OR THE EXERCISE OF OPTIONS AND WARRANTS.

As of June 30, 2007, approximately 9,084,482 shares of our common stock were restricted shares, and we have outstanding warrants and options to purchase 11,722,782 shares of our common stock. If these options and warrants are exercised, the underlying shares will ultimately become subject to resale pursuant to Rule 144. We do not know when or if these options will be exercised. In the event that a substantial number of these shares are offered for sale in the market by several holders, the market price of our common stock could be adversely affected.

OUR MANAGEMENT CONTROLS A SIGNIFICANT PERCENTAGE OF OUR CURRENT OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK; THEIR INTERESTS MAY CONFLICT WITH THOSE OF OUR SHAREHOLDERS.

Our Directors and Executive Officers and their affiliates collectively and beneficially own or control approximately 19% of our voting power (including stock, warrants, options and Series B Preferred Stock). This concentration of voting control gives our Directors and Executive Officers and their respective affiliates substantial influence over any matters which require a shareholder vote, including, without limitation, the election of Directors, even if their interests may conflict with those of other shareholders. It could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of or otherwise discouraging a potential acquirer from attempting to obtain control of us. This could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common stock or prevent our shareholders from realizing a premium over the then prevailing market prices for their shares of common stock.

Table of Contents

IF WE ISSUE COMMON STOCK PURSUANT TO THE EQUITY LINE OF CREDIT, THEN EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS MAY EXPERIENCE SIGNIFICANT DILUTION.

We utilize an equity line of credit. The sale of shares pursuant to equity line of credit will have a dilutive impact on our stockholders. As a result, our net income per share could decrease in future periods, and the market price of our common stock could decline. In addition, the lower our stock price at the time we exercise draw down on the equity line of credit, the more shares we will have to issue. If our stock price decreases, then our existing stockholders would experience greater dilution.

IMPACT OF THE EQUITY LINE OF CREDIT

As we draw down on the equity line of credit, our common stock will be purchased at a discount to the then market price. Sales of such common stock could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. The lower our stock price at the time we exercise draw down on the equity line of credit, the more shares we will have to issue. If our stock price decreases, then our existing stockholders would experience greater dilution.

OUR STOCK PRICE IS HIGHLY VOLATILE AND YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR ALL OF YOUR INVESTMENT.

Trading prices of our common stock may fluctuate in response to a number of events and factors, such as:

general economic conditions changes in interest rates;

conditions or trends in the oil and gas business;

fluctuations in the stock market in general and market prices for oil and gas companies in particular;

quarterly variations in our operating results;

new products, services, innovations, and strategic developments by our competitors or us, or business combinations and investments by our competitors or us;

changes in environmental regulation;

changes in our capital structure, including issuance of additional debt or equity to the public;

additions or departures of our key personnel;

corporate restructurings, including layoffs or closures of facilities;

stock market analyst reports, news and speculation.

Table of Contents

WE DO NOT INTEND TO PAY DIVIDENDS IN THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE; THEREFORE, YOU MAY NEVER SEE A RETURN ON YOUR INVESTMENT.

We do not anticipate the payment of cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We anticipate that any profits from our operations will be devoted to our future operations. Any decision to pay dividends will depend upon our profitability at the time, cash available and other factors.

SINCE WE HAVE NOT PAID ANY DIVIDENDS ON OUR COMMON STOCK AND DO NOT INTEND TO DO SO IN THE FUTURE, A PURCHASER OF OUR COMMON STOCK WILL ONLY REALIZE A GAIN ON THEIR INVESTMENT IF THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK INCREASES.

We have never paid, and do not intend to pay, any cash dividends on our common Stock for the foreseeable future. An investor in this offering, in all likelihood, will only realize a profit on their investment if the market price of our common stock increases in value.

MATERIAL RISKS RELATED TO OUR CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

OUR DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS HAVE RIGHTS TO INDEMNIFICATION.

The Delaware General Corporation Law provides that we will indemnify our directors and officers if they are a party to any civil or criminal action. This may discourage claimants from making claims against the directors and officers even if the claims have merit. The cost of indemnification could be high.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Item 2 Properties

Description of Oil and Gas Properties--Foreign.

We are engaged in oil and gas operations. In West Africa, offshore Guinea, we are engaged in oil and gas geophysical exploration. We have not yet performed any drilling off the coast of Guinea.

In 2002 we obtained a 100% interest in a Production and Sharing Agreement (“2002 PSA”) with the Republic of Guinea. The 2002 PSA was framed out to SCS on December 10, 2002. The 2002 PSA gave exclusive rights for exploration and production across the concession of 16 million acres. We conducted all of our work from 2002 until June 27, 2005 under the 2002 PSA and our work led up to our request for a drilling permit. The permit was not immediately issued as expected in July of 2005, as claims were made by USOil, the former farmout partner, stating the 2002 PSA was terminated. This resulted in us filing a lawsuit against USOil (See the Legal Disclosure for USOil Corporation). At the request of the Government of Guinea, we negotiated a production sharing contract directly between SCS Corporation and the Republic of Guinea. After over 14 months of work directly with the Government of Guinea, SCS and Guinea entered into a new 2006 Production Sharing Contract (2006 PSC) directly with Guinea. As of the filing of this report, we have exclusive rights to explore, develop, and produce approximately 31,000 square miles (approx. 20,000,000 acres) of Guinea's offshore territory. This concession contains shallow, medium depth and deep water potential. All time frames to achieve our exploration work according to the 2006 PSC begin with the effective date of September 22, 2006.

The minimum remaining term of our new 2006 PSC with Guinea is described as follows: The first exploration period is for two years with two automatic one year extensions available for a total of four years for the first exploration period. In the first exploration period we are required to acquire, evaluate, and analyze 2D or 3D seismic with an estimated minimum expenditure of $10 million. The second exploration period starts after the end of the first and is four years long with an automatic extension of four years for a total of eight years. In the second exploration period we are required to acquire additional 2D or 3D seismic, evaluate it and analyze it with an estimated minimum cost of $6 million and drill two exploration wells for an estimated minimum cost of $15 million to $20 million each and minimum well depth of 2,500 meters from the surface of the water. Fulfilling the work obligation in all cases exempts us from fulfilling any minimum expenditure obligation. We have the right to perform the second exploration period work such as drilling in the first exploration period and such work will accrue to the requirements in the second exploration period. Once we determine an area to be capable of commercial production, SCS can secure as many “Exploitation Areas” it can find in a shape defined by us. Each Exploitation Area, defined as a contiguous block surrounding a discovery, shall be 500 square kilometers in size. Each Exploitation Area is held for 25 years but if we show the area can still produce we will get two additional extensions for 10 years each so the total exploitation period becomes effectively 45 years. Each well has its own exploitation period that starts when it begins producing.

Table of Contents

Upon the government entering our new contract into government law, as described under article 5.1 and 5.2 of the new 2006 PSC, we will surrender our exclusive rights under this contract area to approximately 20,000 square miles of the 31,000 square miles. Our revised contract area with respect to this new contract will govern an area of our choosing totaling approximately 11,000 square miles of the original 31,000 square mile concession. At that time, should this occur we will have another category of asset whereby we retain priority rights of participation to this 20,000 square mile area and all the work requirements above will pertain specifically to the exclusive rights area we choose of approximately 11,000 square miles. The priority rights of participation are expected to be defined during any surrender process should it actually occur.

Contract Area

The Contract Area represented on the attached map consists of an area deemed equal to approximately 80,000 sq. km.

Description of Oil and Gas Properties--Domestic.

Beginning in 2004, in Louisiana (onshore), we started drilling for and produced oil. During that time we also started drilling for gas, sometimes in the same borehole as was drilled for oil. As of June 30, 2007, we drilled in Louisiana an aggregate of eight wells, and reworked eight shut in wells that predate our acquisition of the leases.

Our domestic energy operations are conducted by our business segment HYD Resources (“HYDR”). HYDR. operates and develops oil properties and provides incidental drilling and workover internally. HYDR has approximately 314 acres of land under lease for oil and gas development. Of this total, leases held by production total approximately 234 acres. The leases held by production include the Kelly lease in La Salle Parish, in which we own 100% working interest, and two Magee Smith leases in Concordia Parish, in which we own 100% working interest.

Effective July 1, 2007, we acquired working interest of more than 1,100 acres of leasehold property. These properties are operated by a third party and are described in the business section.

Reserves Reported To Other Agencies.

We did not report any estimates of total, proved net oil or gas reserves to any other federal authority or agency.

Production.

The following table shows our annual average sales prices and average production costs per barrel of oil. Production costs are costs incurred to operate and maintain our wells and related equipment. Production costs include cost of labor, well service and repair, location maintenance, power and fuel, property taxes, and severance taxes. Certain amounts from prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Productive Crude Oil Wells and Natural Gas Wells.

The number of productive crude oil and natural gas wells in which we held an interest as of June 30, 2007 was as follows:

June 30, 2007	(1) Gross		(2) Net
Crude Oil Wells:

United States
Onshore		5		5

International:

Guinea
Offshore		0		0
Total		5		5

(1) Productive wells are producing wells and wells capable of production. A gross well is a well in which a working interest is owned. The number of gross wells is the total number of wells in which a working interest is owned.

(2) A net well is deemed to exist when the sum of fractional ownership working interests in gross wells equals one. The number of net wells is the sum of the fractional working interests owned in gross wells expressed as whole numbers and fractions thereof. One or more completions in the same borehole are counted as one well in this table.

Acreage.

The developed and undeveloped acreage (including both leases and concessions) that we held as of June 30, 2007 are as follows:

	Developed Acreage (1) (2)				Undeveloped Acreage (2) (3)

Total		234		234		20,251,080		20,251,080

(1) Developed acreage is acreage spaced or assignable to productive wells.

(2) A gross acre is an acre in which a working interest is owned. A net acre is deemed to exist when the sum of fractional ownership working interests in gross acres equals one. The number of net acres is the sum of the fractional working interests owned in gross acres expressed as whole numbers and fractions thereof. Undeveloped acreage is considered to be those leased acres on which wells have not been drilled or completed to a point that would permit the production of commercial quantities of crude oil and natural gas regardless of whether or not such acreage contains proved reserves.

(3) Included within undeveloped acreage are those leased acres (held by production under the terms of a lease) that are not within the spacing unit containing, or acreage assigned to, the productive well so holding such lease.

Net Exploratory and Development Wells.

The following table sets forth, for each of the years ending June 30, 2007, 2006, and 2005, the number of net exploratory and development wells we drilled. An exploratory well is a well drilled to find and produce crude oil or natural gas in an unproved area, to find a new reservoir in a field previously found to be productive of crude oil or natural gas in another reservoir, or to extend a known reservoir. A development well, for purposes of the following table is a well drilled within the proved area of a crude oil or natural gas reservoir to the depth of a stratigraphic horizon known to be productive. The number of wells drilled refers to the number of wells completed at any time during the relevant fiscal year, regardless of when drilling was initiated. Completion refers to the installation of permanent equipment for the production of crude oil or natural gas, or in the case of a dry hole, to the reporting of abandonment to the appropriate agency.

	Net Exploratory Wells								Net Development Wells

___________________________

(1)

A productive well is an exploratory or development well that is not a dry hole.

(2)

A dry hole is an exploratory or development well determined to be incapable of producing either crude oil or natural gas in sufficient quantities to justify completion as an oil or gas well.

Drilling In Progress

At June 30, 2007, there was no drilling in progress.

Delivery Commitments--Offshore Guinea.

When, if and as there is production in Guinea that falls under the terms of the 2006 PSC, a 10% royalty will be paid to the Republic of Guinea. Of the remaining 90% of the first production, 75% comes to us for cost recovery and 25% goes to Guinea, then up to the first 100,000 barrel per day of production we get 60% and Guinea gets 40%. Over 100,000 barrels per day of production, Guinea gets 60% and we get 40%.

HDY signed the 2006 PSC on September 22, 2006 with the government of Guinea, in accordance with the country’s Petroleum Code. Terms are considered favorable to HDY, as the government of Guinea seeks to attract foreign investment and encourage a heightened pace of activity in its emerging oil & gas industry. The 2006 PSC grants HDY exclusive rights for exploration, development, and production of approximately 31,000 square miles offshore the Republic of Guinea. The 2006 PSC contains a unique provision that, if the contract is registered as a new Guinea law, then 64% of the contract area will convert from exclusive to priority rights of participation that HDY will then maintain in perpetuity. The areas to be converted would be determined solely by HDY. The process to convert these rights will entail codification of the contract by the National Parliament of Guinea, with affirmation by the country’s Supreme Court, and an issuance of a Guinea Presidential decree. For any areas that may become non-exclusive, HDY can acquire additional exclusive rights directly from Guinea on a priority basis through additional contracts.

Short of entering into any additional exclusive contracts, HDY will still maintain priority rights to participate within the non-exclusive area.

Our production sharing is outlined in the table below:

Daily production (b/d)1	Guinea Share	HDY Share
From 0 to 2,000	25%	75%
From 2,001 to 5,000	30%	70%
From 5,001 to 100,000	40%	60%
Over 100,001	60%	40%

1 After 75% cost recovery

Other significant terms of the agreement include the imposition of a 10% royalty and a sharing of profit oil. Profit oil is determined based on daily production (see table above), net of royalties and after recovery of 75% of upfront costs. As part of the Company’s work commitments, HDY is required to complete additional seismic acquisition by September 2008 and drill a minimum of two exploration wells by 2018. HDY plans to exceed these minimum requirements. The exploitation periods for each area specified will be for 25 years with two 10-year automatic extensions available. Each well in the exploitation area will have its own exploitation period.

Delivery Commitments--Onshore Louisiana.

We have no domestic delivery commitments.

Description of Physical Facilities--Description of Operations Center in Louisiana.

We own 7/10 acre of highway frontage land containing a metal building of approximately 7,000 square feet that we use for our oil and gas operations in Jena, Louisiana. In December 2005, we paid $50,000 for this property. The property is well located and well suited to facilitate the organization and mobilization of our oil and gas drilling and production in Louisiana.

Description of Physical Facilities--Description of Admjinistrative Office Property.

Our executive and administrative offices are located at One Sugar Creek Center Blvd., Suite 125, Sugar Land, Texas 77478 where we lease 6,752 square feet of space. The lease term was amended to 87 months commencing on August 1, 2006. We had a 3 month free rent period. We prepaid 3 months of rent and gave the landlord a $75,000 letter of credit for 24 months to secure the cost of the build-out. The letter of credit will be released on October 31, 2007. The monthly rent is $11,816 per month. The build-out was completed in August 2006.

Item 3 Legal Proceedings

Dixon Financial Services.

In 2001, we were named as a defendant in a lawsuit styled Dixon Financial Services, Ltd. v. Fidelity Transfer Company, Erin Oil Exploration, Inc., Bill Knollenberg, Ron Bearden, R.F. Bearden Associates, Inc., James Chang, Nick H. Johnson, Riley L. Burnett, Jr., Johnson, Burnett & Chang, L.L.P., Greenberg, Peden, Siegmyer & Oshman, P.C., George Siegmyer and Hyperdynamics Corporation; Cause No. 2001-06263; In the 215th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas.

This suit alleged breach of contract, negligence and other causes of action for failure to deliver 574,500 shares of our common stock to Dixon Financial Services upon the expiration of certain trading restrictions. Prior to the transfer, although always owned in certificate form by Dixon, these shares were held in a nominee name. However, prior to being able to deliver common stock certificates in Dixon’s name as free trading shares, the Erin Oil Exploration parties, filed a lawsuit and obtained a temporary restraining order preventing the transfer of the shares. The restraining order was obtained on the affidavit of the lawyers for the Erin Oil parties. The Erin Oil parties and their attorneys alleged that these shares were subject to certain claims they had against other persons. We demonstrated that these shares were not subject to the Erin Oil parties’ claims and the temporary injunction was removed as to us. However, our stock transfer agent continued to refuse to transfer the shares based on threats and other comments made by the Erin Oil parties’ attorneys. As a result, the transfer of the shares into Dixon’s name was delayed more than three months. During this period, the share price declined from $7.00 per share to slightly more than $1.00 per share.

Both Dixon Financial and the company brought claims against the Erin Oil parties and their legal counsel for their wrongful conduct in preventing the transfer of the shares. As a defense the Erin Oil parties’ legal counsel asserted a litigation privilege under Texas law. Based on this assertion, the Erin Oil parties and their legal counsel filed motions for summary judgment. The trial court granted all such motions for summary judgment.

Our transfer agent, Fidelity Transfer, claimed that it was not subject to jurisdiction in Texas on the Dixon claims. In addition, we determined that Fidelity Transfer was not solvent for purposes of any judgment against it in this matter. Fidelity Transfer is no longer a party to this lawsuit at this time, but we have a formal agreement allowing us to pursue recovery against Fidelity Transfer at a later time.

At the end of April 2005, we entered into an agreement with Dixon Financial to settle and resolve this litigation. The agreement provided, among other things, that we would work together with Dixon to appeal the summary judgments. We agreed to bear the costs of the appeal of those summary judgments. The agreement further provided that we agree to a judgment in the amount of $2,015,264 for the failure to deliver the shares into the name of Dixon Financial. Dixon Financial agreed postpone enforcement of the judgment until the appeal process is concluded or the Erin Oil parties are determined not to be liable for any other reason. Furthermore, by our agreement with Dixon Financial we will pay only $240,000, payable at $10,000 per month for 24 months, if the appeal of the summary judgments is unsuccessful. If the appeal is successful, we will seek to recover our damages and costs from the Erin Oil parties and their legal counsel. Any recoveries from the Erin Oil parties or their legal counsel is expected to be from insurance coverage.

Table of Contents

The proposed agreed judgment described above was submitted to the court on at least five occasions beginning in May 2005. In June 2006, the Court issued an order severing some of the Erin Oil parties from the main case so that the summary judgments entered in favor of those parties could be appealed. That appeal is proceeding. The remainder of the case against Knollenberg and Erin Oil, as the remaining Erin Oil parties, was tried to a jury in January 2007. The jury found in favor or Hyperdynamics and Dixon and awarded damages against Knollenberg. However, at the request of the Erin Oil parties and their counsel, the trial court set aside the jury award and entered a “take nothing” judgment on all issues. That judgment is now on appeal under our agreement with Dixon. We believe that our liability to Dixon will not arise, if at all, prior to September 2008. As of June 30, 2007, we have not recorded an accrual associated with legal fees from this lawsuit because it is our policy to expense legal costs as they are incurred. Additionally, because we do not consider a loss from this lawsuit to be probable, we have not accrued any losses associated with this legal contingency as of June 30, 2007.

On April 9, 2001, we were named as a defendant in a lawsuit styled Wellington, LLC vs. Hyperdynamics Corporation et al. Civil Action# 18811-NC, The Court of Chancery of Delaware.

The Plaintiff claims that we did not carry out conversion of Series A preferred stock to common stock. On August 9, 2002 Plaintiff, Defendant, and their respective counsels executed an “Agreement for Transfer of Claims in Delaware Action to Georgia. Subsequently, the lawsuit was moved in its entirety to Atlanta, Georgia to be litigated under the lawsuit discussed below. Under the agreement, the Plaintiff in the Delaware action, Wellington, LLC. would become the Defendant in Atlanta. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004, the Court of Chancery of Delaware dismissed the Delaware case.

On November 5, 2001, we filed a lawsuit styled Hyperdynamics Corporation, Plaintiff, v. J.P. Carey Securities, Inc., J.P. Carey Asset Management LLC, Joseph C. Canouse, John C. Canouse, James P. Canouse, Jeffrey Canouse, Southridge Capital Management LLC, Stephen Hicks a/k/a Steve Hicks, Thomson Kernaghan & Co., Limited, Mark Valentine, Talya Davies, Cache Capital (USA), L.P., Carpe Diem, Carpe Diem LTD., Wellington, LLC, Minglewood Capital, LLC, Falcon Securities, LTD, Navigator Management LTD., David Sims, and Citco Trustees (Cayman) Limited, Defendants; and Wellington LLC, Counterclaim/Third-Party Plaintiff, v. Hyperdynamics Corporation, a Delaware corporation, Kent Watts, Michael Watts, Robert Hill, Harry J. Briers, DJX, Ltd., a Belize corporation, and Does 1-10, Counterclaim/Third-Party Defendants, Civil Action File No. 2001CV44988, In The Superior Court of Fulton County, State of Georgia.

We filed our First Amended Complaint against Defendants on September 12, 2002 in which we presented thirteen counts for Causes of Action against defendants including “Violations of Georgia Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations” (RICO) Act (O.C.G.A. SS 16-14-1, ET SEO).

We believe that more than one of the Defendants worked together to create the appearance of providing initial long term financing ($3,000,000) and additional financing commitments (up to additional $5,000,000), all from reputable sources, while the Defendants' real plan was to manipulate our stock through contractually prohibited short selling and multiple breaches of the contractually agreed to selling covenants.

We are subject to counterclaims in this Georgia litigation. The counterclaimants allege that Hyperdynamics and its Officers and Directors breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders and committed other tortuous acts. We intend to continue to vigorously pursue damages and defend all counterclaims. Discovery is being primarily focused on jurisdictional issues at this time. During the litigation we have made numerous claims of discovery abuse resulting in certain defendants and defense attorneys involved being sanctioned by the court. They have filed for sanctions against us as well. The court dismissed all non-Georgia defendants. We have filed a notice of appeal of that ruling.

The Georgia Court of Appeals rejected our appeal of the trial court’s order dismissing the non-Georgia defendants because it was not a “final order,” though it was in effect as to the dismissed defendants. The Court of Appeals’ action returned the case to the trial court where a Motion for Reconsideration was filed due to a dramatic change in the law of personal jurisdiction in Georgia. (See Innovative Clinical & Consulting v. First National Bank of Ames, 279 Ga. 672 (2005).) That Motion is still pending and all activity in the case is halted until the trial court rules.

USOil Corporation.

This lawsuit was dismissed in light of very favorable discovery responses from Plaintiff that established our right to proceed under the newly negotiated production agreement with the Guinean Government. However, in August 2007, USOil Corporation re-filed this lawsuit in Ft. Bend County claiming it was the actions or omissions of SCS that caused the 2002 PSA to be cancelled by the Government. We have successfully transferred the case back to the original court in Harris County and will be filing legal motions seeking judgment against USOil in the very near future. Discovery is expected to also start which will show USOil’s allegations to be blatantly false and unfounded. However, all work is currently on hold pending the administrative process of transferring the case from Ft. Bend County to Harris County and reactivating the old court file. In addition to denying all claims in the Answer on file, SCS has also filed a counterclaim seeking damages for frivolous litigation and tortuous interference of a contract.

Trendsetter Investors, LLC and Manning, Moore, and Long

Two cases, styled Trendsetter Investors, LLC, Plaintiff vs. Hyperdynamics Corporation, Trendsetter Production Co., Kent Watts, Michael Watts, Christopher Watts and Harry Briers, Defendants; Civil Action No. H 06-0746; in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division and Jack Manning, Sue Manning, Stephen Moore and Geoffrey Long, Plaintiffs versus Hyperdynamics Corporation and Kent Watts, defendants. The suit was filed in the 189th District Court of Harris County, Texas with cause no. 2006-22135 were settled in a single settlement agreement and both cases were dismissed June 2007. In the Trendsetter case, the Plaintiff alleged Fraud or Deceit in the Sale of Securities, Common Law Fraud, Fraud by Omission and Control Person Liability. Plaintiff seeks unspecified monetary damages. In the Manning case, the Plaintiffs alleged that they had the pre-emptive right to invest in Hyperdynamics Corporation's common stock. In conjunction with the settlement agreement,

Trendsetter Investors received warrants to purchase 3,480,000 shares of restricted common stock in Hyperdynamics Corporation exerciseable at $4.00 per share, with a price reset provision that would reduce the exercise price to $2.40 under certain conditions, until June 14, 2017. The fair value of the warrants as determined using the Black-sholes option pricing model was $8,959,000.

b)	Kent Watts would facilitate an exchange of the warrants for 1,740,000 shares of common stock. Several Hyperdynamics Series B preferred stockholders effected this exchange in June 2007.

c)	Trendsetter conveyed its 30% working interest in certain oil and gas properties it had purchased back to Hyperdynamics.

d)	Geoffrey Long received 30,000 shares of Hyperdynamics common stock valued at the market price on the agreement date of $82,000.

e)	Hyperdynamics agreed to pay $280,000 in cash to Trendsetter Investors, LLC for legal fees.

As of June 30, 2007, Hyperdynamics had issued all the stock and warrants associated with this settlement and had paid $40,000. A short term note payable for $240,000, the balance of the legal fees that Hyperdynamics had agreed to pay, remained on Hyperdynamics’ balance sheet as of June 30, 2007. Hyperdynamics paid the note on July 10, 2007.

The Stock and Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) of Hyperdynamics was adopted May 7, 1997 and amended on December 3, 2001 and on January 21, 2005. The total number of shares issuable under the Plan, as amended, is 10,000,000. The Board of Directors voted to amend the Plan on May 5, 2007 by extending the expiration date of the Plan from May 7, 2007 to May 7, 2010.

As of June 30, 2006, we had 4,771,597 shares available to be issued or granted pursuant to the Plan. We issued 318,286 shares under the Plan this fiscal year, leaving us with 4,453,311 shares available to be issued or granted pursuant to the Plan as of June 30, 2007.

Under the Plan, options will vest over a five year or other negotiated period and will have a strike price set at the time of grant based on the then current market value of the stock.

Our President has the authority as given by the Board of Directors to negotiate stock option agreements with corporate consultants as well. We presently have warrants to purchase 942,000 shares of common stock which are currently outstanding and were issued pursuant to such agreements at a weighted average price of $0.27 per share.

The purpose of the Plan is to further our interest, and the interest of our subsidiaries and our stockholders by providing incentives in the form of stock or stock options to key employees, consultants and Directors who contribute materially to our success and profitability. We believe that our future success will depend in part on our continued ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel as employees, independent consultants and attorneys. The issuance of stock and grants of options and warrants will recognize and reward outstanding individual performances and contributions and will give such persons a proprietary interest in us, thus enhancing their personal interest in our continued success and progress. We pay wages, salaries, and consulting rates that we believe are competitive. We use the Plan and individual compensation arrangements to augment our compensation packages.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

The Company is including the following cautionary statement to make applicable and take advantage of the safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, the Company. This annual report on Form 10K contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, expectations, future events or performance and underlying assumptions and other statements which are other than statements of historical facts. Certain statements contained herein are forward-looking statements and, accordingly, involve risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements. The Company's expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and are believed by the Company to have a reasonable basis, including without limitations, management's examination of historical operating trends, data contained in the Company's records and other data available from third parties, but there can be no assurance that management's expectations, beliefs or projections will result or be achieved or accomplished. In addition to other factors and matters discussed elsewhere herein, the following are important factors that, in the view of the Company, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements: the ability of the Company to respond to changes in the oil exploration and production environment, competition, the availability of financing, and, if available, on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company, and the availability of personnel in the future to support its activities and external customers.

Overview

Our corporate mission is to explore for and develop new sources of energy worldwide. On September 22, 2006, our wholly owned subsidiary, SCS Corporation signed a Production Sharing Contract (the “2006 PSC”) with the Republic of Guinea. The 2006 PSC gives us exclusive rights to explore and develop approximately 31,000 square miles off the coast of Guinea. However, certain provisions of the contract require us to surrender 64% (approximately 20,000 square miles) of the contract area upon the passage of a “Project of Law”, a Presidential Decree, and a Supreme Court ruling. We would retain a priority non-exclusive right. to be defined in the future, to participate in the development of the surrendered contract area. Although the PSC is a legally binding contact under Guinea’s 1986 Petroleum Code, the process of passing a law, obtaining a Presidential Decree and a Supreme Court ruling effectively codifies the PSC into Guinea law, thereby strengthening our concession within the contract area. Furthermore, we expect, through the priority rights granted in the PSC, to continue our participation in the surrendered contract area and still have exclusive rights to the remaining 36% (approximately 11,000 square miles) of the contract area. Until the passages of the events mentioned above, we retain the exclusive right to explore and exploit 100% of the 31,000 square mile concession. As such, we expect to continue aggressively pursuing our exploration efforts within the concession.

In December 31, 2006, we traveled to Germany at the invitation of the Guinea Ministry of Mines and Geology and made a presentation to numerous participants from various ministries of the Guinea government. At the meeting, we notified the Guinea Ministry of Mines that we had begun our exploration work pursuant to the requirements of the 2006 PSC with the ultimate goal to begin drilling exploration wells.

In October 2006, we engaged Global SanteFe's Applied Drilling Technologies to evaluate resources in the Country of Guinea that can support the needs of offshore drilling operations. Thus, during the quarter, a team traveled to Guinea to survey the facilities, ports, and capabilities there by six to nine months.

In November 2006, we traveled to Guinea together with our lobbyist, former Secretary of State for African Affairs, Herman Cohen. We met with numerous ministers of the Guinea government in meetings whereby they publicly gave support for our contract. We addressed the National Assembly in the presence of the President of the National Assembly of Guinea, Mr. Aboubacar Somparé. Our trip was highly publicized in Guinea and was carried extensively on Guinea's national RTG television.

While we were in Guinea, our geoscientists at our corporate offices prepared for the farm-out program, which was announced in January 2007. We launched a program to provide the opportunity for oil companies to license and study our proprietary data and then submit proposals to us later this year. We have now begun presentations to companies under confidentiality agreements.

As previously discussed, we signed the 2006 PSC on September 22, 2006. This contract is substantially better than the previous 2002 PSC agreement. In addition, the 2006 PSC is in full accordance with Guinea law known as the 1986 petroleum code, and it is being considered by the National Assembly of Guinea for special action that ultimately would codified the 2006 PSC as a new law in and of itself as we disclosed in our 8K filed on April 16, 2007. All of this is positive for Hyperdynamics Corporation. Additionally, the world demand for oil has remained strong and the west coast of Africa is expected to remain one of the most active areas in the world for exploration. For these reasons we believe that the value of the concession has greatly increased over the last several months.

As part of their political process the Guinea government has decided, as is entirely their prerogative, to send the 2006 PSC to the National Assembly to be considered for a special status of a “project of law”. The National Assembly's working political process for the “project of law” is a process whereby the Guinea government informs its people of the benefits of the government's contracts. It also allows law makers to understand the major contracts themselves so that they can make new laws that can positively affect the people in the future. In our case, the 2006 PSC also has a special contract provision under article 5.1 whereby certain terms, conditions, and rights of the contract will change. For the National Assembly to pass or not pass a “project of law” on our contract has no bearing on the legality or enforceability of the contract. While the legality of the contract is not affected by passing a “project of law”, management may see a need to review the farm-out process and adapt to any changes that may be brought about if it indeed passes and other certain actions explained in previous filings occur as well.

Results of Operations --- Reportable segments.

Hyperdynamics has two reportable segments: our operations in Guinea (“SCS”) and our domestic Louisiana operations (“HYDR”). SCS is engaged in oil and gas exploration activities pertaining to offshore Guinea, West Africa. HYDR is engaged in oil and gas exploration and production activities in Louisiana, USA. Hyperdynamics evaluates performance based on profit or loss from operations. The reportable segments are managed by separate management teams who are evaluated based on their segment's performance.

Results of Operations --- Louisiana Operations (“HYDR”)

Comparison for Fiscal Year 2007 and 2006

Revenues. Our revenue for the year ended June 30, 2007 was $1,006,000 in comparison to $615,000 in 2006. This represents an increase of 64% or $391,000. The increase is due to equipment upgrades and less downtime, which resulted in higher production of oil and gas. The revenues for 2007 are derived from oil and gas production of $908,000 and $98,000 in oilfield services, compared to $615,000 in oil and gas production and $0 in oilfield service work in 2006. We expect to derive most of our future revenues from oil and gas production with incidental oilfield service revenue as good business opportunities arise.

Lease operating costs for the year ended June 30, 2007 was $387,000 in comparison to $657,000 in 2006. This represents a decrease of 42% or $270,000 due to upgrade in equipment resulting in better maintenance and higher performance.

Severance tax for the year ended June 30, 2007 was $104,000 in comparison to $65,000 in 2006. This represents an increase of 60% or $39,000. Severance tax varies directly with production revenues.

Our depreciation, depletion and amortization from Oil and Gas Properties was $162,000 and $116,000 for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This represents a decrease of 40% or $46,000. The decrease is attributable to past sales of oilfield equipment, which reduced the periodic depreciation charge.

Other operational costs for the year ended June 30, 2007 was $725,000 in comparison to $922,000 in 2006. This represents a decrease of 21% or $197,000 due to decrease in expenses related to repairs and maintenance, tools and yard costs, field work labor and decrease in number or field employees.

Settlement expense for the year ended June 30, 2007 was $8,870,000 and $0 in 2006. We were sued by an investor in working interest in some of our oil and gas properties. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, we issued 3,480,000 warrants to purchase our common stock at an adjusted exercise price of $2.40 per share. The expenses are calculated using the fair value of the warrants as of the date they were granted as estimated by the Black-Scholes option pricing model and based upon $2.40 exercise price.

Our selling, general and administrative expense decreased 2%, or $17,000, from $608,000 to $591,000 for the years ended June 30, 2006 and June 30, 2007, respectively. The change is due to a decrease in administrative expenses.

Our loss from operations from this segment was ($9,835,000) and ($1,753,000) for the years ended June 30 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Other income and expenses decreased by $180,000. The decrease is due to two main factors. We repurchased working interest in some oil and gas properties in 2006 at a loss of $370,000. This was a one time charge. Additionally, we had a loss on disposal of assets of $96,000 in 2007, whereas in 2006 we recognized a gain on sales of assets of $89,000.

Comparison for Fiscal Year 2006 and 2005

Revenues. Our revenue for the year ended June 30, 2006 was $615,000 compared to $170,000 in 2005. This represents an increase of 262% or $445,000. The revenues increased due to higher oil prices and increase in production. The revenues for 2006 are all derived from oil and gas production. The revenues in 2005 include $52,000 from oil and gas revenues and $118,000 from oilfield service work..

Lease operating costs for the year ended June 30, 2006 was $657,000 in comparison to $265,000 in 2005. This represents an increase of 147% or $392,000. This increase is attributable to start up costs.

Severance tax for the year ended June 30, 2006 was $65,000 in comparison to $6,000 in 2005. This represents an increase of 983%, or $59,000, due to increase in production revenues.

Our depreciation, depletion and amortization expense was $116,000 and $77,000 for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. This represents a decrease of 51% or $39,000 due to increase in purchases of field equipment assets.

Other operational costs for the year ended June 30, 2006 totaled $922,000 in comparison to $956,000 in 2005. This represents an insignificant decrease of 3% or $34,000.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses increased 63%, or $235,000, from $374,000 to $609,000 for the years ended June 30, 2005 and June 30, 2006, respectively. The breakdown for these expenses in 2006 includes $4,000 in selling expenses, $60,000 of administrative payroll costs, an establishment of a reserve for bad debt on uncollectible working interest billing of $233,000, professional fees of $172,000 due to legal expenses stemming from various lawsuits filed by our working interest partner, insurance expenses of $43,000 and office and administrative expenses of $97,000. In comparison, the breakdown for these expenses in 2005 includes $133,000 of payroll costs, professional fees of $62,000, insurance costs of $77,000, bad debt expense of $34,000 and office and administrative expense of $68,000. Thus, the main factors contributing to the $234,000 change are: a $74,000 decrease in payroll costs, a $199,000 increase in bad debt expense and an $109,000 increase in professional fees. We also experienced a gain of $34,000 from the settlement of our lease agreement for our previous office space.

Our loss from operations from this segment was ($1,754,000) and ($1,508,000) for the years ended June 30 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Other expense was $370,000 and $0 for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The increase is due to the working interest buyback.

Results of Operations --- Guinea And Seismic Data Management (“SCS”)

Comparison for Fiscal Year 2007 and 2006

Revenues. There were no revenues for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006. We have focused on the acquisition and interpretation of seismic data for our concession in Guinea.

Other operational costs were $8,000 and $62,000 for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The decrease of 87%, or $54,000, is due to reduction of expenses incurred on the evaluation of a potential project not related to our Guinea concession.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,825,000 and $732,000 for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This represents an increase of 286% or $2,093,000.

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is attributable to increases in various areas including salaries, equity based compensation, rent and utilities, travel expenses, professional expenses and consulting expenses. Salary expense increased 180% or $246,000 from $133,000 in 2006 to $384,000 in 2007 due to increase in officer salaries and increased allocation of salaries from corporate office in connection with work on the Guinea concession. Equity based compensation of $461,000 was incurred in 2007, whereas no such compensation occurred in 2006. Office rent and utilities increased 18% or $31,000 due an additional office set up in Guinea. Travel expenses to West Africa in connection with the Guinea concession increased 171%, or $198,000, from $116,000 in 2006 to $314,000 in 2007. Professional expenses increased by 165% or $182,000 because of legal expenses relating to the Guinea concession and lawsuit. Consulting, advertising and public relations expenses increased by 526% or $837,000 from $159,000 in 2006 to $996,000 in 2007, due to expenses related to government relations, lobbyist, geoscientists and geophysical consulting services and contract officers fees. General expenses increased by $138,000 due to increase in office supplies and other administrative expenses compared to $33,000 during the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Our depreciation decreased 16% or $5,000, from $31,000 down to $26,000 for years ended June 30, 2006 and 2007, respectively, due to retirement and disposal of assets.

Loss from Operations. Based on the factors discussed above, our loss from operations from this segment increased by 246%, or ($2,034,000), for the year ended June 30, 2006 to ($825,000) to ($2,859,000) for the years ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006, respectively.

Comparison for Fiscal Year 2006 and 2005

Revenues. Our revenues for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 were $0 and $3,000, respectively. We receive occasional revenues from tape transcription and seismic data processing services. We do not actively pursue revenues of this nature and they occur very irregularly.

Other operational costs were $62,000 and $80,000 for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. This represents a decrease of 29% or $18,000 due to reduction of employee and non Guinea farm-out expenses.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $732,000 and $424,000 for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. This represents an increase of 73% or $308,000.

We experienced an increase of $391,000 in the following general and administrative expenses: 1) An increase of $71,000 or 113% in salary expenses from $63,000 to $133,000 for the years ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively, due to the hiring of our new SCS Vice President of Guinea Affairs and increased allocation of salaries from corporate office in connection with work on the Guinea concession; 2) An increase of $48,000 or 70% on travel expenses to Africa in connection with the Guinea concession from $68,000 to $116,000 for the years ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively; 3) Professional and consulting expenses increased of 2600% or $260,000 attributable to legal and consultation expenses relating to the Guinea concession; 4) Increase in auto, bank and other administrative expenses of $12,000 from $6,000 to $18,000 for the years ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. We experienced a decrease of $82,000 of which our selling expenses decreased $46,000 to $0 for the years ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. A decrease of $36,000 on rent, insurance and other office expenses $231,000 down to $195,000 for the years ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. The decrease is attributable to the following: 1) A decrease of $14,000 on rent and utilities expenses from $179,000 to $165,000 for the years ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. This decrease is attributable to the settlement of our lease from our old office. Our new office lease agreement decreased our monthly rent payments and usage on electricity; 2) Insurance expenses decreased $11,000 from $24,000 to $13,000 for the year ended June 30, 2005 and 2006 respectively, due to reduction of staff; 3) Office supplies and expenses decreased $11,000 from $20,000 to $9,000 for the year ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively, due to decrease in repairs and maintenance on our office equipments and reduction of purchases on supplies.

Our depreciation increased 10% or $3,000, from $28,000 to $31,000 for year ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively, due to additional assets in place at our new office in Guinea, West Africa.

Loss from Operations. Based on the factors discussed above, our loss from operations from this segment increased by 56%, or ($296,000), for the year ended June 30, 2006 to ($825,000) from ($529,000) for the year ended June 30, 2005.

Other Items.

Our interest expense decreased 100% due to no retirement on preferred stock or no redemption of option by investor and no loss occurred on debt retirement for the year ended June 30, 2006. Our

We also experienced a gain of $67,000 from the settlement of our lease agreement for our previous office space.

Comparison for Fiscal Year 2007 and 2006

Settlement expenses for the year ended June 30,2007 was $249,000 and $0 in 2006.

Consulting - related party expenses for the year ended June 30, 2007 was $4,240,000 and $284,000 in 2006. This represents an increase of $3,956,000 or 1392% due to the grant of 1,500,000 warrants with an exercise price of $4.00 per share. We record the expense of equity based compensation using the fair value of the warrants as of the date they were granted as estimated by the Black-Scholes option pricing model and based upon $4.00 exercise price.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $870,000 or 40%, from $2,158,000 to $3,028,000 for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2007, respectively. The increase is due higher administrative expenses of $1,126,000 offset by a decrease of $255,000 in other general administrative expenses. The increase is attributable to the following: 1) Stock based compensation increased by $369,000 or 273%, from $512,000 to $1,909,000. The equity instruments were issued to officers, directors and employees and the value was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. 2) Salaries and payroll taxes increased by $268,000 or 73% from $365,000 to $633,000 due to an increase in employees and wage increases resulting in increased of payroll taxes. 3) Professional expenses increased by $141,000, from $414,000 to $555,000 due to higher legal costs resulting from various lawsuits and an increase in accounting and audit fees; 4) Our general expenses increased by $165,000 or 45% from $365,000 in 2006 to $530,000 in 2007 attributable to increase in American Stock Exchange listing fees, increase in annual shareholder meeting expenses, transfer agent and reporting fees, as well as office relocation, supplies, auto and insurance expenses. 5) Public relations expenses was $183,000 and $76,000 for the years ending June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This represents an increase of $107,000 or 140% attributable to expenses for retaining public relations firm and investor relations. Although there was an increase in expenses, we also experience a decrease in rent and utilities by $69,000 due to reduction in rent and consumption of utilities; Travel decreased by $48,000 due to less travel by directors and officers and bank charges decreased by $5,000 due to increase in funding and consulting of non-related party decreased $134,000.

Depreciation was $31,000 and $19,000 for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase is due to addition of assets such as furniture and fixtures.

Other Items.

Gain on settlement of debt was $0 and $34,000 for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 respectively.

Interest expense was $2,982,000 and $1,961,000 for the year ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This represents an increase of $1,021,000 or 52% attributable to payments made on our private financing related to a convertible note payable and debenture.

Interest income was $96,000 and $2,000 for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This represents an increase of $93,000 derived from interest received on the cash we received during the year which was invested in a money market account.

Net Loss. Based on the factors discussed for each segment, the Net Loss attributable to common shareholders increased ($16,055,000), or 221% from ($7,253,000) or ($0.17) per share in 2006 to ($23,308,000), or ($.49) per share in 2007. The net loss chargeable to common shareholders includes a provision for preferred stock dividends of $109,000 in 2006 and 2007. The negative results are due to the factors discussed above.

Comparison for Fiscal Year 2006 and 2005

Other operational costs for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was $0 and $69,000, respectively, a decrease of $69,000 or 100%, attributable to our system engineer's payroll costs for work not attributable to generating revenues, but instead for administrative tasks.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,443,000 and $2,802,000 for the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. This represents a decrease of 13% or $359,000, due to increase in expenses by $1,085,000 and offset in decrease of some expenses by $1,446,000.

Table of Contents

Consulting expenses for the year ended June 30, 2007 was $284,000 and $0 in 2005.

The increase in expenses was attributable to following factors: 1) Equity based compensation increased by $443,000 from $69,000 in 2005 to $512,000 in 2006; 2) Professional expenses are comparable at $130,000 for 2006 and 2005; 3) Travel expenses increased by $120,000 from $3,000 in 2005 to $123,000 in 2006 due to increase in directors meeting and shareholder meeting travel expenses; 4) Salaries and payroll taxes increased by $81,000 due to new employee hire; 5) Public relations and investor relations increased by $76,000 due increase in public relations expenses, American Stock Exchange listing fees, increase in annual shareholder meeting expenses, and transfer agent fees; 6) Insurance expenses increase by $28,000 due to increase in general liability, umbrella and control of oil well policy; 7) other general expenses increased by $55,000 due to increase in auto expense, office supplies and postage and bank charges.

During the year ended June 30, 2006, our compensatory equity based options and warrants were valued at $855,000, of which $381,000 are options issued to employees, directors and officers; and $473,000 were warrants granted to four consultants in 2004, and the remaining part of their warrants vested during the first and second quarter of fiscal year 2006. We record the expense associated with these warrants using the fair value of the warrants as of the date they vest as estimated by the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Equity-based compensation does not impact our liquidity or net worth because the consulting expense is offset by an increase to additional paid-in capital.

The decrease in some expenses are attributable to the following: 1) consultant expenses decreased by $1,353,000 due to decrease in consultation services and quarterly expenses associated with prior year warrants issued and vested in the last two quarters of fiscal year 2006, using the fair value of the warrants as of the date they vest as estimated by the Black-Scholes option pricing model and based upon the market price of our common stock in each quarter. The warrants vesting date ended the second quarter of fiscal year 2006; 2) Office rent and utilities expense decreased by $82,000 due to the termination of our old office lease agreement, a reduction in rent on our new office lease agreement and decrease in consumption of utilities on reduced office space; 4) Taxes and reporting expenses decreased by $11,000. Our payroll expense includes an offset of a refund from the IRS in the amount of $46,000.

Depreciation and amortization is comparable at $19,000 for the years ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

Other Items.

Interest expense was $316,000 and $1,961,000 for the year ended June 30, 2005 and 2006, respectively. The increase is attributable to payments made on our private financing related to a convertible note payable and debenture.

We experienced a gain of $34,000 from the settlement of our lease agreement for our previous office space.

Net Loss. Based on the factors discussed for each segment, entity-wide, the Net Loss attributable to common shareholders increased ($1,909,000), or 36% from, ($5,344,000), or ($.13) per share in 2005 to ($7,253,000), or ($0.17) per share in 2006. The net loss chargeable to common shareholders includes a provision for preferred stock dividends of $128,000 in 2005 and $109,000 in 2006. The negative results are due to the factors discussed above.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for exploration and development activities as defined by the SEC. Under this method of accounting, the costs of unsuccessful, as well as successful, exploration and development activities are capitalized as properties and equipment. This includes any internal costs that are directly related to exploration and development activities but does not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead or similar activities. Gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of oil and gas properties is not recognized, unless the gain or loss would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and natural gas attributable to a country. The application of the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties generally results in higher capitalized costs and higher DD&A rates compared to the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas properties.

Costs Excluded

Properties and equipment include costs that are excluded from costs being depreciated or amortized. Oil and gas costs excluded represent investments in unproved properties and major development projects in which we own a direct interest. These unproved property costs include nonproducing leasehold, geological and geophysical costs associated with leasehold or drilling interests and exploration drilling costs. We exclude these costs on a country-by-country basis until proved reserves are found or until it is determined that the costs are impaired. All costs excluded are reviewed at least quarterly to determine if impairment has occurred. The amount of any impairment is transferred to the capitalized costs being amortized (the DD&A pool) or a charge is made against earnings for those international operations where a reserve base has not yet been established. Impairments transferred to the DD&A pool increase the DD&A rate for that country. For international operations where a reserve base has not yet been established, an impairment requiring a charge to earnings may be indicated through evaluation of drilling results, relinquishing drilling rights or other information.

Table of Contents

Ceiling Test

The full cost ceiling test is an impairment test prescribed by SEC Regulation S-X Rule 4-10. Under full cost accounting rules for each cost center, capitalized costs of proved properties, less accumulated amortization and related deferred income taxes, shall not exceed an amount (the "cost ceiling") equal to the sum of (a) the present value of future net cash flows from estimated production of proved oil and gas reserves, based on current economic and operating condition, discounted at 10 percent, plus (b) the cost of properties not being amortized, plus (c) the lower of cost or estimated fair value of any unproved properties included in the costs being amortized, less (d) any income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of the properties involved. If capitalized costs exceed this limit, the excess is charged as an impairment expense. As of June 30, 2007, we have capitalized $43,000 in oil and gas properties, which is subject to the ceiling test for impairment. At June 30, 2007, there was no impairment indicated.

Impairment

At June, 30, 2007, we had $4,279,000 of capitalized costs associated with our Guinea operations. Based on an impairment analysis performed by our Economist, Dr. Kenneth Lehrer and the execution of the new 2006 Production Sharing Contract between SCS Corporation and the Republic of Guinea, , no impairment of these assets was indicated as of June 30, 2007.

Environmental Obligations and Other Contingencies

Management makes judgments and estimates in accordance with applicable accounting rules when it establishes reserves for environmental remediation, litigation and other contingent matters. Provisions for such matters are charged to expense when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and reasonable estimates of the liability can be made. Estimates of environmental liabilities are based on a variety of matters, including, but not limited to, the stage of investigation, the stage of the remedial design, evaluation of existing remediation technologies, and presently enacted laws and regulations. In future periods, a number of factors could significantly change our estimate of environmental remediation costs, such as changes in laws and regulations, or changes in their interpretation or administration, revisions to the remedial design, unanticipated construction problems, identification of additional areas or volumes of contaminated soil and groundwater, and changes in costs of labor, equipment and technology. Consequently, it is not possible for management to reliably estimate the amount and timing of all future expenditures related to environmental or other contingent matters and actual costs may vary significantly from our estimates.

Proved reserves

Our estimates of proved reserves are based on quantities of oil and gas reserves which current engineering data indicates are recoverable from known reservoirs under existing economic and operation conditions. Estimates of proved reserves are key elements in determining our depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and our full-cost ceiling limitation. Estimates of proved reserves are inherently imprecise because of uncertainties in projecting rates of production and timing of developmental expenditures, interpretations of geological, geophysical, engineering and production data and the quality and quantity of available data. Changing economic conditions also may affect our estimates of proved reserves due to changes in developmental costs and changes in commodity prices that may impact reservoir economics. We utilize independent reserve engineers to estimate our proved reserves.

Asset Retirement Obligations

Our asset retirement obligations represent our best estimate of the fair value of our future abandonment costs associated with our oil and gas properties, including the costs of removal and disposition of tangible equipment, site and environmental restoration. We estimate the fair value of our retirement costs in the period in which the liability is incurred, if a reasonable estimate can be made. The determination of the fair value of an asset retirement obligation generally involves estimating the fair value of the obligation at the end of the property's useful life and then discounting it to present value using our credit adjusted, risk free rate of return. Estimating future asset removal costs is difficult and requires management to make estimates and judgments regarding the expected removal and site restoration costs, timing and present value discount rates. Changes in the estimated useful life and the fair value of the asset retirement obligation are imprecise since the removal activities will generally occur several years in the future and asset removal technologies and costs are constantly changing, as are political, environmental and safety considerations that may ultimately impact the amount of the obligations.

Table of Contents

Fair Value of our debt and equity transactions

Many of our various debt and equity transactions require us to determine the fair value of a debt or equity instrument in order to properly record the transaction in our financial statements. Fair value is generally determined by applying widely acceptable valuation models, (e.g., the Black Scholes valuation model) using the trading price of the underlying instrument or by comparison to instruments with comparable maturities and terms.

Share-Based Compensation

On January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment". SFAS 123(R) replaced SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. SFAS 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. In addition, we account for stock warrants issued for goods and services to non-employees pursuant to EITF 96-18 “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services.” We used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of stock options and stock warrants at the grant date.

Contingent Obligations

We have a contingent $350,000 note payable that is only payable with 25% of the profits of SCS Corporation. We have the right to pay this note off using common stock. Also, in conjunction with our purchase of HYD Resources Corporation in April 2004, we have two contingent obligations to pay $506,000. These obligations are payable over the five years ending in April 2009 and they are payable only in the event that HYD Resources is profitable. The determination of net income will be made quarterly and the pay down of the obligations is 25% of the net income per quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our ratio of current assets to current liabilities (current ratio) was $2.53 to one and $1.04 to one at June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. With the new acquisition of producing properties in June 2007, the company continues to work toward sustained positive operating cash flow and income from domestic operations altogether including corporate overhead. Cash funds to be used for investing in our exploration work will continue to come from new financing activities, financial partnerships, or working interest deals with oil companies.

Table of Contents

We believe that we are now prepared to structure our financing to allow us to expand and accelerate our exploration activity offshore Guinea. As discussed hereunder we expect our liquidity ratios to be reasonably maintained and possibly improved by having access to our Dutchess equity line and by increasing our domestic production to where we are making a positive operating net income. We believe we can do this without having to do any additional financing at this time to cover corporate overhead. As of this filing we maintain the Dutchess equity line and could raise as much as an additional $18,629,775 out of the original line which started at $20,000,000.

While some of the equity line funds could be used to fund additional exploration, we are looking to greatly enhance our exploration efforts to a much greater level. To fund our exploration offshore Guinea, we have growing options that include taking on working interest partners wanting to join our efforts to explore offshore Guinea or by working with potential financing partners to obtain financial commitments to fund exploration Any funds would be used on a planned and incremental basis on perfecting targets and drilling offshore exploration wells over the next few years. While we are working to structure our financing of the exploration of offshore Guinea, we are already taking steps to put in place a world renowned exploration team to go along with our world class asset. We believe the financing commitment will go hand in hand with showing the technical team capable of making a discovery. While we are working to obtain a financial partner and solidify our in-house geo-technical capabilities, we will continue talking with oil companies under confidentiality agreements, continuing the possibility to bring on working interest partners to share in the risk on some of our more expensive wells to be drilled in the future.

Thus, in summary, in addition to our commitment to operate domestic operations at a profitable level and ultimately covering Corporate’s fixed overhead, we are considering all of our financing options or any combination of these options for financing our Guinea forward exploration programs. These options include: a) use our equity line to support at least the minimum work requirements for offshore Guinea; b) negotiate and structure a deal on a financial commitment basis; c) negotiate one or more transactions with oil company partners who share in the required work and financing risk; and d) Structure a creative financing mechanism to execute a major secondary financing, giving us the ability to execute our exploration work offshore Guinea on our own..

Our cash from operations was a deficit in 2007. We have taken steps to reduce overhead and reduce non-operational costs. We acquired additional leases in July 2007 in an effort to put our domestic operations on a positive cash flow basis and soon in a profitable mode. We plan to spend most of the capital we raise in the future on enhancing the value of our offshore oil and gas concession. These expenditures, however, do not improve cash flow from operations. In order to improve our operating cash flow situation for future periods, we acquired additional producing properties to build up our production revenues for HYDR in Louisiana.

In June, 2007, the remaining outstanding convertible debt, originally totaling $6,000,000 and owed to Cornell Capital Partners, LP, (Cornell) was converted to equity. Additionally, warrants held by Cornell were re-priced to $2.50 per share and Cornell subsequently exercised all of its outstanding 2.1 million warrants. As a result we received $5.25 million in cash.

We currently maintain an equity line of credit with Dutchess Capital. We have made seven puts on the equity line of credit since February 2006 in the aggregate amount of $1,370,225. As of September 28, 2007, the remaining amount available for us to draw down on the equity line of credit is $18,629,775. The equity line of credit expires in February 2009, after which we may no longer utilize the equity line of credit.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Hyperdynamics Corporation

Houston, Texas

We have audited Hyperdynamics Corporation’s (“Hyperdynamics”) internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Hyperdynamics management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the effectiveness of Hyperdynamics’ internal control over financial reporting based upon our audit.

We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting 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 effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company’s board of directors, management, and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and includes those policies and procedures that:

1.	Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and

3.	Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The following material weaknesses have been identified at June 30, 2007 and included in management’s assessment:

An ineffective entity level control environment, including: a) the ineffective implementation and enforcement of the limits on the delegation of authority for expenditure from the Board of Directors to management, including the failure by management to obtain the requisite Board of Director’s approvals for certain expenditures; b) the lack of an effective process for identification of fraud risks; c) a failure to implement and ensure consistent acknowledgment of the Company’s Code of Ethics; d) the lack of an internal audit function or other effective mechanism for ongoing monitoring of the effectiveness of internal controls; and e) lack of documentation and communication of Hyperdynamics’ accounting policies and procedures.

F-2

Table of Contents

2.	Limited number of qualified accounting personnel with expertise with SEC reporting and generally accepted accounting principles.

Ineffective application of generally accepted accounting principles and ineffective accounting system controls that resulted in incomplete and inaccurate disclosures in the notes to Hyperdynamics’ financial statements and the identification of $4.03 million of equity transactions that were not properly recorded and $104,000 of property, plant and equipment, net that was not in existence as of the balance sheet date.

Lack of effective segregation of duties, resulting in the inability of the Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Executive Officer to perform an independent review and quality assurance function within the accounting and financial reporting group. Additionally, management and accounting personnel have widespread access to create and post entries within Hyperdynamics’ accounting system without the appropriate level of review.

These material weaknesses were considered in determining the nature, timing and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2007, and this report does not affect our report dated September 26, 2007 on those financial statements.

In our opinion, because of the effects of the material weaknesses described above on the achievement of the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO, Hyperdynamics did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2007.

Hyperdynamics Corporation

Houston, Texas

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hyperdynamics Corporation as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2007. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing 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 misstatement.. 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 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Hyperdynamics Corporation as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Hyperdynamics Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2007 based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated September 26, 2007 expressed an adverse opinion on the effectiveness of Hypderdynamics Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

HYPERDYNAMICS CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of business. Hyperdynamics Corporation (Hyperdynamics) is a Delaware corporation formed in March 1996. Hyperdynamics has two wholly-owned subsidiaries, SCS Corporation (SCS), HYD Resources Corporation (HYD). HYD has a wholly-owned subusidiary, Trendsetter Production Company (Trendsetter). Through SCS’s wholly owned subsidiary, SCS Corporation Guinee SARL which is a Guinea limited liability company located in Conakry, Guinea. Hyperdynamics focuses on oil and gas exploration offshore the coast of West Africa. SCS began operations in oil and gas exploration, seismic data acquisition, processing, and interpretation in late fiscal 2002. In April 2004, Hyperdynamics acquired HYD, and in January 2005, HYD acquired Trendsetter, an oil and gas operator in Louisiana that had been under common ownership with HYD. Trendsetter owns and operates oil and gas leases in the USA.

Principles of Consolidation and Use of Estimates

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hyperdynamics and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current presentation. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses at the balance sheet date and for the period then ended. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates are required for proved oil and gas reserves, which, as described in Note 19 – Supplemental Oil and Gas Properties Information (unaudited), have a material impact on the carrying value of oil and gas property. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material.

Cash and cash equivalents

For purposes of the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, Hyperdynamics considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Restricted cash at June 30, 2007 and 2006 consists of a certificate of deposit at a bank that secures a letter of credit serving as the underlying collateral for a Hyperdynamics' lease commitment. The CD matures on January 6, 2008 and accrues interest at 4.03% annually. The contractual obligation to provide a letter of credit will end and the letter of credit will be returned to us on October 31, 2007.

Accounts receivable, allowance for doubtful accounts and key customers

Hyperdynamics does not require collateral from its customers. Accounts receivable are written down to reflect management's best estimate or realizability based upon known specific analysis, historical experience, and other currently available evidence of the net collectible amount. During the fiscal year, two customers, Plains Marketing LLC and Shell Trading, purchased all oil production from our Louisiana properties. In September 2006, we entered a contract with Shell Trading to be the sole purchaser of our oil production in Louisiana.

Other Current Assets

As of June 30, 2007, other current assets consist of $151,000 in prepaid insurance, $35,000 other prepaid expenses, and $13,000 of inventory, for a total of $199,000.

As of June 30, 2006, other current assets consist of $143,000 in prepaid insurance and $59,000 other prepaid expenses, for a total of $202,000.

As of June 30, 2007, an investor had exercised warrants to purchase 2,100,000 shares of common stock at $2.50 per share. The investor paid the exercise price, $5,250,000, on July 2, 2007. The stock is reflected as issued on June 30, 2007 and the $5,250,000 is reflected as a stock subscription receivable.

Proved reserves

Property and Equipment, other than Oil and Gas

Property, equipment and a building are stated on the basis of historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets of 3 - 15 years.

Provision for Impairments of Long-lived Assets

The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, by reviewing such assets for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment loss recognized is the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset. Based on our impairment analysis, we did not recognize any impairment charges in the years ended June 30, 2007 or June 30, 2006.

F-13

Table of Contents

Asset Retirement Obligations

Deferred Rent

Deferred rent arises because Hyperdynamics had a free rent period within its lease contract. Monthly rent expense is calculated as the average monthly cost for all payments scheduled to be made over the entire term of the lease. During the free rent period, expense was accrued, and as cash payments are made, the accrual will be reduced. The short-term portion, which is scheduled to reverse within twelve months of the balance sheet date, is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The long term portion is included in the caption “Long term liabilities”. During the free rent period, which began in January 2006 and ended in November 2006, $115,000 in rent expense was accrued. As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, $105,000 and $67,000, respectively, had been accrued. As of June 30, 2007, $89,000 was long-term and $16,000 was short term. The accrual will reverse $16,000 in each of the years ended June 30, 2008 through June 30, 2013 and $9,000 in the year ended June 30, 2014.

Revenue recognition

Revenues derive primarily from oil and gas sales and they are recognized at the point when title to the oil or gas passes to the customer. For oil sales, this occurs when the customer's truck takes delivery of oil from Trendsetter's storage tanks. Revenue, if any, from tape conversions, consulting, and oil field services is recognized when services are rendered.

Federal Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary difference between the tax and financial reporting basis of assets and liabilities and for loss and credit carryforwards. Valuation allowances are provided when recovery of deferred tax assets is not considered likely.

Stock-Based Compensation

Effective July 1, 2005, we adopted SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment,” which was issued in December 2004, using the modified prospective transition method. SFAS No. 123R revises SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation,” and supersedes APB No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and its related interpretations. SFAS No. 123R requires recognition of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments in the financial statements over the period the employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively the vesting period). SFAS No. 123R also requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Prior to July 1, 2005, we measured compensation cost for stock based compensation using the fair value based method of accounting as specified in SFAS 123. See Note 13.

Table of Contents

Earnings Per Share

Hyperdynamics’ basic earnings per share (EPS) amounts have been computed based on the average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS amounts would include the effect of outstanding stock options, warrants, and other convertible securities if including such potential shares of common stock is dilutive. Basic and diluted earnings per share are the same in all periods presented because losses are anti-dilutive.

Contingencies

Legal

Hyperdynamics is subject to legal proceedings, claims and liabilities which arise in the ordinary course of its business. Hyperdynamics accrues for losses associated with legal claims when such losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. These accruals are adjusted as additional information becomes available or circumstances change. Legal fees are charged to expense as they are incurred.

Environmental

Hyperdynamics accrues for losses associated with environmental remediation obligations when such losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. These accruals are adjusted as additional information becomes available or circumstances change. Costs of future expenditures for environmental remediation obligations are not discounted to their present value. Recoveries of environmental remediation costs from other parties are recorded at their undiscounted value as assets when their receipt is deemed probable.

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

We do not expect adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results or operations, financial position or cash flow.

2. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

A summary of property and equipment as of June 30, 2007 and 2006 are as follows:

The costs associated with such unproved properties related to continuing operations of $4,279,000 and $4,139,000 as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, are excluded from amounts subject to amortization. The majority of the evaluation activities are expected to be completed within three years. See Note 19 for detailed information about the excluded costs.

Trendsetter Settlement

During fiscal year 2005, we sold approximately 30% of our working interest, through a series of transactions, in the Kelly and Norris leases to outside investors, including Trendsetter Investors, LLC. Net proceeds from the sale totaled $1,320,000, of which $1,161,000 was applied against our USA full-cost property pool. At June 30, 2006, we had recognized a deferred gain related to the sale of this working interest.

On March 8, 2006, Trendsetter Investors, LLC filed a lawsuit alleging breach of contract, among other things, which was settled in June 2007. (see Note 15) Pursuant to the settlement agreement, we issued 3,480,000 warrants to purchase our common shares at an adjusted exercise price of $2.40 per share. The value of the warrant, computed using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, was $8,959,000. In addition, we issued 30,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $82,000 and agreed to pay $280,000 in legal costs associated with the case. As of June 30, 2007, $40,000 had been paid leaving a balance of $240,000. The remaining balance of this note was paid in July 2007. In addition, at June 30, 2007, the deferred gain of $159,000 was reduced to $0. The total loss recognized in fiscal year 2007 related to this settlement was $8,850,000.

Also in connection with the settlement agreement, the 30% working interest was conveyed back to us and was assigned a zero value.

Acquisition of Oil and Gas Properties

During June 2007, Hyperdynamics entered into an agreement with an operator to purchase a non-operating 85% working interest in various wells, leases, and oil and gas equipment in Louisiana, USA. The closing date of the agreement was July 1, 2007. Prior to closing, Hyperdynamics paid $100,000 in cash and 100,000 shares of common stock when the quoted market price of the stock was $2.74 per share. The consideration paid as of June 30, 2007, $374,000, is carried as a deposit on Hyperdynamics’ consolidated balance sheet.

F-16

Table of Contents

Under the agreement, Hyperdynamics paid an additional $1,150,000 in cash and 100,000 shares of common stock. Hyperdynamics made the cash payment in July 2007 and the stock payment in August 2007. The properties purchased under this agreement are subject to overriding royalty interests of up to 27.46%. In addition, the seller, who will remain the operator of the properties, retained a 15% working interest. However, Hyperdynamics will pay 100% of the working interest expenses, including work-over and new development costs, up to $4,000,000. Subsequent working interest expenses are shared pro rata according to the working interest.

Guinea Assets

On September 22, 2006, we signed a Production Sharing Contract (the “2006 PSC”) with the Republic of Guinea. Under this contract, we have the exclusive right to explore and develop approximately 31,000 square miles off the coast of Guinea. However, upon the passage of a “Project of Law,” a Presidential Decree and a Guinea Supreme Court Ruling, we will be required to surrender our exclusive rights to 64% (approximately 20,000 acres) of the concession. The area ultimately surrendered would be selected by Hyperdynamics, but, we would retain a priority non-exclusive right to participate in the development of the surrendered contract area. The Guinea concession is subject to a 10% overriding royalty interest to the Guinea Government and we are entitled to recover 75% of our cost. In addition, the Guinea Government may elect to take a 15% working interest in any exploitation area.

The first exploration period runs for two years from the date of the 2006 PSC, with two automatic extensions. In the first exploration period we are required to acquire, evaluate, and analyze 2D or 3D seismic with an estimated minimum expenditure of $10 million. The second exploration period begins at the end of the first exploration period and runs for 4 years with an automatic extension of 4 years. In the second exploration period we are required to acquire additional 2D or 3D seismic, evaluate it and analyze it with an estimated minimum cost of $6MM, and drill two exploration wells for an estimated minimum cost of $15 million to $20 million each and minimum well depth of 2,500 meters from the surface of the water. The fulfillment of the work scope during each exploration period relieves us from any minimum expenditure obligation. The exploitation period(s) for each exploitation area (as specified) will be for 25 years with two ten year automatic extensions available for a total of 45 years. Each well in the exploitation area will have its own exploitation period.

Loss on disposal of equipment

Hyperdynamics conducted a physical inventory of oilfield equipment and concluded that, at year-end, oilfield equipment with a cost basis of $234,000 and a net book value of $104,000 were no longer in service. As a result, we recorded a $104,000 charge for loss on retirement of equipment

4. ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS

SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,” addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. This statement requires that the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying cost of the asset. The company's asset retirement obligations consist of estimated costs for dismantlement, removal, site reclamation and similar activities associated with its oil and gas properties. An asset retirement obligation and the related asset retirement cost are recorded when an asset is first drilled, constructed or purchased. The asset retirement cost is determined and discounted to present value using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate. After initial recording, the liability is increased for the passage of time, with the increase being reflected as accretion expense in the statement of operations. Subsequent adjustments in the cost estimate are reflected in the asset retirement obligation liability and the amounts continue to be amortized over the useful life of the related long-lived asset.

6. ACCOUNTS PAYABLE SEISMIC DATA

In February 2003, SCS agreed to pay $650,000 to Offshore Seismic Surveys, Inc. (OSS), an offshore seismic company, in exchange for OSS agreeing to release SCS from the $550,000 due to OSS for the Guinea seismic data. The additional $100,000 was charged to expense in 2003. OSS maintains a lien on the ownership and sale of 1,000 kilometers of the seismic data acquired in 2002, as security for the $650,000.

Any user license sales proceeds generated from user licenses of the this data shall first go to payoff the $650,000 liability at a rate of 90 percent of gross user license sales proceeds for OSS and 10 percent to SCS until the $650,000 is paid in full. Any funding arrangement SCS enters into with respect to the Guinea PSC,, whereby all rights and obligations under the PSC are transferred, shall cause the $650,000 to become immediately due upon signing and funding of such agreement. The payable is accrued at June 30, 2005.

8. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

In June 2006, we issued, in three tranches, an aggregate of $6,000,000 in 10% convertible debentures due June 19, 2009 pursuant to a financing arrangement with Cornell Capital Partners, LP. The debentures were secured by substantially all of the assets of the company, except for the assets of our subsidiaries SCS Corp and SCS Guinea SARL and our assets and operations in the Republic of Guinea.

In connection with these debentures, we received net aggregate proceeds of $5,440,000 and issued warrant to purchase 2,100,000 shares of our common stock at a weighted-average exercise price of $3.15. The warrants were valued at $1,314,000 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. In addition, the debentures contained a beneficial conversion feature totaling $866,000.

During fiscal 2007, all of the debentures were converted into common shares. At the time of conversion, we recognized $2,719,000 in additional interest expense due to the acceleration of the discount amortization. The following table reflects the activity for the years ended June 30, 2007 and 2006:

	June 30,
	2007			2006
Face value of debentures	$	6,000,000		$	4,000,000
Less: Discount related to warrants		(1,314,000	)		(1,314,000	)

Balance of debentures at year end	$	-		$	1,556,000

At the time of issuance, we analyzed the convertible debentures for derivative accounting consideration under SFAS 133 and EITF 00-19. Hyperdynamics determined the conversion feature met the criteria for classification in stockholders' equity under SFAS 133 and EITF 00-19. Therefore, derivative accounting is not applicable for the convertible instruments.

9. LETTER OF CREDIT

We obtained a letter of credit in favor of our landlord in the amount of $75,000 to guarantee our lease payments for our corporate office in Sugar Land, Texas. The letter of credit is guaranteed by a security interest in a certificate of deposit with Frost Bank that may not be redeemed until the letter of credit expires Hyperdynamics opened a Time Certificate of Deposit with Frost Bank on January 6, 2006 for an initial deposit amount of $75,000 securing a letter of credit. The Certificate of Deposit term is 24 months and the maturity date is January 6, 2008. . There were no draws against this letter of credit as of June 30, 2007. The letter was extended until October 31, 2007 and the funds will be free of restriction at that time.

10. INCOME TAXES:

Income taxes are not due since Hyperdynamics has had losses since inception. Hyperdynamics has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $28,486,000 at June 30, 2007. Components of income tax expense for the years ended June 30, 2007, 2006 and 2005 are as follows:

	2007			2006			2005
Deferred tax asset	$	9,566,000		$	6,393,000		$	4,389,000
Increase in valuation allowance for deferred tax assets		(9,566,000	)		(6,393,000	)		(4,389,000	)

Income tax expense	$	-		$	-		$	-

F-19

Table of Contents

Internal Revenue Section 382 restricts the ability to use these carryforwards whenever an ownership change as defined occurs. Hyperdynamics incurred such an ownership change on January 14, 1998 and again on June 30, 2001, As a result of the first ownership change, Hyperdynamics' use of net operating losses as of January 14, 1998 of $949,000 are restricted to $151,000 per year. The availability of losses from that date through June 30, 2001 of $3,313,000 are restricted to $784,000 per year. Losses in fiscal 2002 and beyond are not restricted. The net operating loss carryforwards expire from 2011 to 2027.

The difference between the statutory tax rates and our effective tax rate is due to the valuation allowance applied against our deferred tax assets generated by net operating losses.

11. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY:

Series A Preferred Stock

In January 2000, we issued 3,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for net proceeds of $2,604,190. The stated value is $1,000 per share and par value is $.001. This series is non-voting and has a dividend rate of 4%, payable at conversion in either cash or shares of common stock, at Hyperdynamics' option. During 2000 and 2001, 1,055 shares were converted to common stock. As a result, 1,945 shares remain outstanding at June 30, 2007. By terms of the agreement, the preferred shares are convertible into Hyperdynamics' common stock at a price equivalent to the lower of the trading price when purchased of $5.25 or 80% of the current 5-day trading average. All or any of the stock may be converted at any time at the holder's option. According to the terms of the agreement, all preferred shares outstanding as of January 30, 2002 were to be automatically converted to common stock. If the Series A stock had been converted at that time, approximately 4,862,000 shares of common stock would have been issued. This conversion did not occur because of legal claims filed by both the Series A shareholders and Hyperdynamics against each other. Remaining conversions, if any, would be determined by the outcome of the lawsuit.

Hyperdynamics has not converted any of the Series A shares since fiscal 2001 because of claims filed in November 2001 in its lawsuit against the Series A shareholders. Since the outcome is not known and no conversion had been effected, Hyperdynamics continued to accrue dividends on the 1,945 shares through September 30, 2004. Management evaluated the accrual as of September 30, 2004 and determined the accrual should be discontinued. Management reevaluates the accrual periodically and considers the current accrual to be adequate to cover the liability, if any, pursuant to the lawsuit.

As of June 30, 2007, $372,000 in dividends had been accrued, which represents accruals through 2005. No dividends have been accrued in 2006 or 2007.

Series B Preferred Stock

On May 31, 2001, we issued 2,725 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock in connection with the acquisition of SCS Corporation. Series B stockholders are related parties (see note 16). The stated value is $1,000 per share and the par value is $0.001. Each Series B share may vote 7,408 common shares for a total of 20,186,800 votes. The shares are convertible to common stock at the lesser of $0.135 or 50% of the current 5- day average trading price. Series B stockholders are entitled to a 4% cumulative dividend on the stated value, which is payable only upon conversion of the preferred stock. Dividends may be paid in stock or cash at Hyperdynamics' option. Dividends accrued on the Series B were $27,000 as of June 30, 2005. In each of the years ended 2006 and 2007, dividends of $109,000 were accrued. The resulting balance in accrued dividends was $245,000 as of June 30, 2007.

During June 2007, 238 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were converted into 1,762,962 shares of common stock. As a result, 2,487 shares of Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding.

If all Preferred Series A and B shares were converted as of June 30, 2007, based on the then-market price of the stock, total common shares outstanding would be approximately 73,664,000 shares.

12. DEEMED DIVIDENDS

In March 2007, the Company modified the terms of certain warrants previously issued between October 2003 and March 2004. The term and price of the warrants, originally 3 years and $2.00, respectively, were changed to 5 years and $4.00, respectively. The modification resulted in a deemed dividend of $2,370,000, which was calculated using the Black-Scholes method assuming volatility of 105% and a risk adjusted interest rate of 5%.

In June 2007, the Company again modified the terms of certain warrants previously issued between October 2003 and March 2004. The price of the warrants was reduced from $4.00 to $2.50. The modification resulted in a deemed dividend of $1,189,000, which was calculated using the Black-Scholes method, assuming volatility of 110% and a risk adjusted interest rate of 5%.

13. STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

Hyperdynamics' Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of non-qualified options to directors, employees and consultants, and opportunities for directors, officers, employees and consultants to make purchases of stock in Hyperdynamics. In addition, Hyperdynamics issues stock warrants from time to time to employees, consultants, stockholders and creditors as additional financial incentives. The plans and warrant issuances are administered by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee who have substantial discretion to determine which persons, amounts, time, price, exercise terms, and restrictions, if any.

Warrants originally issued in conjunction with the convertible debentures (Note 8) to purchase 1,145,000 shares of common stock were repriced from $3.00 and $4.00 per share to $2.50 per share and the number of warrants was increased to provide for the right to purchase an additional 544,000 shares of common stock at $2.50 per share in accordance with contractual anti-dilution provisions. This resulted in a deemed dividend of $1,499,000. The following table details the significant assumptions used to compute the fair market values of warrants to purchase 1,145,000 shares of common modified in June:

Warrants originally issued in conjunction with a legal settlement to purchase 3,480,000 shares of common stock were repriced to $2.40 per share in June 2007 in accordance with contractual provisions. At the time of the repricing, related parties owned the warrants. This resulted in additional settlement expense of $167,000, which was calculated using the Black-sholes method assuming volatility of 137% and a risk adjusted interest rate of 5%.

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, Hyperdynamics and its subsidiaries are involved in a number of routine business disputes that may occur in the ordinary course of business. Hyperdynamics is unable to predict the outcome of such matters when they arise. Other than disputes currently disclosed under litigation, the Company is unaware of any other disputes that exist and does not believe that the ultimate resolution of such matters would have a material adverse effect on the financial statements of Hyperdynamics.

Legal Contingencies

Hyperdynamics is involved in a dispute with its series A preferred shareholders over conversion rights to common stock and whether monetary damages are due for various claims against the preferred shareholders. The economic effects of and the probable outcome of this contingency are not known.

Hyperdynamics is a party to a lawsuit styledDixon Financial Services, Ltd. v. Fidelity Transfer Company, Erin Oil Exploration, Inc., Bill Knollenberg, Ron Bearden, R.F. Bearden Associates, Inc., James Chang, Nick H. Johnson, Riley L. Burnett, Jr., Johnson, Burnett & Chang, L.L.P., Greenberg, Peden, Siegmyer & Oshman, P.C., George Siegmyer and Hyperdynamics Corporation; Cause No. 2001-06263; In the 215th Judicial District Court of Harris County, Texas. In conjunction with the lawsuit, Hyperdynamics has entered into an agreed settledment with the plaintiff in the case making liability to the plantiff contingent upon the outcome of appeals in the case. If Hyperdynamics loses in the appeal, it will be obligated to pay $240,000, payable $10,000 per month for 24 months. If the appeal is successful, Hyperdynamics will seek to recover its damages, costs and attorneys fees from other defendants in the case, with Hyperdynamics having no liability. Management considers that losses in this case are not probable and accordingly has made no accrual associated with this case.

Hyperdynamics settled two lawsuits with Trendsetter Investors, LLC and certain individuals in a single settlement agreement and both cases were dismissed June 2007. In conjunction with the settlement agreement,

b)	Kent Watts would facilitate an exchange of the warrants for 1,740,000 shares of common stock. Several Hyperdynamics Series B preferred stockholders effected this exchange in June 2007.

c)	Trendsetter conveyed its 30% working interest in certain oil and gas properties it had purchased back to Hyperdynamics.

d)	Geoffrey Long received 30,000 shares of Hyperdynamics common stock valued at the market price on the agreement date of $82,000.

e)	Hyperdynamics agreed to pay $280,000 in cash to Trendsetter Investors, LLC for legal fees.

Contingent notes payable

Hyperdynamics' subsidiary, SCS, has $350,000 remaining of a contingent note payable due to Seacon Computer Systems Inc., the former owners of SCS Corporation's assets. It is payable in Hyperdynamics common stock and it is payable only if SCS has net income in any given quarter. If SCS experiences net income in a quarter, 25% of the income will be paid against the note.

Hyperdynamics’s subsidiary, HYD, has $506,000 remaining on two contingent notes payable to one individual. The notes are to be paid quarterly over the five years ended June 30, 2009. Payments will be due only if HYD has net income. Payment amount will be 25% of the net income for the period, unless there was a net loss in previous period(s). If there is a net loss, subsequent net income must completely offset the losses before any amounts are due. After the loss is offset, payment of 25% of the remaining net income will be due.

Operating Leases

Hyperdynamics leases vehicles and office space under long-term operating leases with varying terms. Most of the operating leases contain renewal and purchase options. Hyperdynamics expects that in the normal course of business, the majority of operating leases will be renewed or replaced by other leases. As of June 30, 2007, future minimum lease payments under noncancellable operating leases with initial or remaining terms in excess of one year include:

1)	$142,000 to be paid in each of the years ended June 30, 2008 through June 30, 2013 and $58,000 to be paid in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 on Hyperdynamics’ office lease; and

2)	$24,000 to be paid in the year ended June 30, 2008 and $12,000 to be paid in the year ended June 30, 2009 for two vehicles.

Rent expense included in net loss from operations was $184,000, $204,000 and $278,000 in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

16. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Michael Watts

Consulting –related party

During the year ended June 30, 2007, Michael Watts, the CEO's brother, received payment of $13,000 cash to pay for offering costs on private subscription agreements and warrants exercised. Additional offering costs will also be paid on 3,471,000 warrants purchased by private investors should they be exercised in the future. If all of these warrants were exercised, Michael Watts would receive approximately $867,750 to pay these additional costs.

In March 2007, the audit committee pre-approved a consulting contract with Michael Watts under which he will provide Investor Relations, Public Relations, Financial Consulting and general advisory services. In June 2007, the compensation committee and audit committee approved a warrant to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock at $4.00 per share as the compensation associated with this agreement. The fair value of the warrants, as computed using the Black-sholes option pricing model, was $4,227,000. The warrants expire in June 2014.

Additionally, we recognized compensation cost of $284,000 and $1,101,000 in the years ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, as warrants which had been granted to a company affiliated with Michael Watts in January 2004 vested. All the warrants had been exercised as of June 30, 2007.

Exercise of warrants

During the year ended June 30, 2006, the company affiliated with Mr. Watts exercised 1,010,000 warrants for $505,000. In December 2006, the company exercised warrants to purchase 101,757 shares of common stock on a cashless basis and received a net issuance of 80,669 shares of common stock. In June 2007, the company exercised its remaining warrants to purchase 188,242 shares of common stock for $94,122.

Compensation for working interest sales

On February 9, 2005 the Audit Committee of Hyperdynamics Corporation pre-approved a contract with Geoserve Marketing, an assumed name for Michael E. Watts, the brother of the Chief Executive Officer. Under the Agreement Geoserve Marketing was to sell up to 49% of the working interest in certain oil and gas properties owned by Trendsetter at $55,000 per point. Trendsetter agreed to pay 20% of the proceeds to Geoserve Marketing in return for services associated with the marketing of these interests. The independent audit committee pre-approved two extensions of the working interest sales contract. As of June 30, 2007, 35% working interest, or $1,925,000, had been sold and Geoserve Marketing had been paid promotion fees of $385,000.

Series B Preferred stock

In March 2007, DJX Ltd, which held 2,725 shares of Series B Preferred stock in trust for the grandchildren of Ernest Watts, the father of Chief Executive Officer Kent Watts, was dissolved as it distributed the preferred stock to corporations owned by five separate trusts on behalf of the former beneficiaries of DJX Ltd. All owners of Series B Preferred stock are family members of Kent Watts, Hyperdynamics’ CEO.

In June 2007, four of the new corporations converted a total of 238 shares of Preferred Series B stock to 1,762,962 shares of Hyperdynamics common stock. They then exchanged 1,740,000 shares of common stock for warrants to purchase 3,480,000 shares of common stock at $4 per share. The exchange of stock for warrants facilitated the settlement of Hyperdynamics’ lawsuit with Trendsetter Investors LLC (See Note 15). In accordance with a price reset provision in the original warrants, the exercise price of the warrants was reduced from $4.00 per share to $2.40 per share on June 29, 2007.

Series B Preferred stock accrues a dividend at 4% per year.

Exercise of option

In June 2007, Hyperdynamics issued 59,211 shares of common stock to the Chief Financial Officer upon the cashless exercise of options to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock.

The sum of loss per share for the four quarters may not equal the total loss per share for the year due to changes in the average number of common shares outstanding and rounding.

The net loss attributable to common shareholders in fourth quarter 2007 included a $9,118,000 settlement expense from the settlement of our lawsuit with Trendsetter Investors, LLC (See Note 15). Additionally, we granted a consultant (who is a related party) warrants to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock. The fair value of the award, $4,227,000, was charged to expense when the warrants vested in June.

19. SUPPLEMENTAL OIL AND GAS INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)

The following supplemental information regarding the oil and gas activities of the Hyperdynamics is presented pursuant to the disclosure requirements promulgated by the SEC and Statement of Financial Standards (“SFAS”) No. 69, Disclosures About Oil and Gas Producing Activities.

F-30

Table of Contents

The following estimates of reserve quantities and related standardized measure of discounted net cash flows are estimates only, and are not intended to reflect realizable values or fair market values of the Hyperdynamics’ reserves. The Hyperdynamics emphasizes that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of new discoveries are more imprecise than producing oil and gas properties. Additionally, the price of oil has been very volatile and downward changes in prices can significantly affect quantities that are economically recoverable. Accordingly, these estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available and these changes may be significant.

Proved reserves are estimated reserves of crude oil and natural gas 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 expected to be recovered through existing wells, equipment and operating methods.

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is computed by applying year-end prices of oil and gas (with consideration of price changes only to the extent provided by contractual arrangements) to the estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves, less estimated future expenditures (based on a year-end costs) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves, less estimated future income tax expenses. The estimated future net cash flows are then discounted using a rate of 10% per year to reflect the estimated timing of the future cash flows.

Costs Excluded

Since there were no proved reserves the oil and gas properties located in the Republic of Guinea, costs associated with such unproved properties related to continuing operations of $4,279,000 and $4,139,000 as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively, are excluded from amounts subject to amortization. The majority of the evaluation activities are expected to be completed within three years.

Results of Operations for Producing Activities

The following schedule includes only the revenues from the production and sale of gas, oil, condensate and NGLs. The income tax expense is calculated by applying the current statutory tax rates to the revenues after deducting costs, which include DD&A allowances, after giving effect to permanent differences. Due to significant net operating loss carryforwards related to producing activities, income taxes have not been provided at June 30, 2007. The results of operations exclude general office overhead and interest expense attributable to oil and gas activities.

This is attributable to reserves at our Magee-Smith lease, which was acquired during the year ended June 30, 2005. As of June 30, 2005, Hyperdynamics could not determine with reasonable certainty the amount of proved reserves on the lease and thus estimated no proved reserves. As of June 30, 2006, we revised the estimate to 41,898 barrels.

During the year ended June 30, 2006, a productive well was completed at our Kelly lease.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows Relating to Proved Oil and Gas Reserves

The following table presents the standardized measure of future net cash flows from proved oil reserves in accordance with SFAS No. 69. All components of the standardized measure are from proved reserves, all of which are located within the continent of the United States. As prescribed by this statement, the amounts shown are based on prices and costs at June 30, 2006 and 2005, and assume continuation of existing economic conditions. Future income taxes are based on year-end statutory rates, adjusted for tax credits. A discount factor of 10 percent was used to reflect the timing of future net cash flows. Extensive judgments are involved in estimating the timing of production and the costs that will be incurred through the remaining lives of the fields. Accordingly, the estimates of future net revenues from proved reserves and the present value thereof may not be materially correct when judged against actual subsequent results. Further, since prices and costs do not remain static, and no price or cost changes have been considered, and future production and development costs are estimated to be incurred in developing and producing the estimated proved oil reserves, the results are not necessarily indicative of the fair market value of estimate proved reserves, and the results may not be comparable to estimates by other oil producers.

Item 9 Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Corporate Disclosure Controls

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures of a registrant designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the registrant in the reports that it files or submits under the exchange Act is properly recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include processes to accumulate and evaluate relevant information and communicate such information to a registrant's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

We evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2007, as required by Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. As described below, under "Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting," material weaknesses were identified in our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2007, relating to our control environment, staffing of our financial accounting department, accounting system controls, and segregation of duties. Based on the evaluation described above, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2007, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. To address the material weakness, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Effective December 31, 2006, Hyperdynamics Corporation met the definition of "accelerated filer," as described by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act. As an accelerated filer, we are required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 to include an assessment of our internal control over financial reporting for the year ended June 30, 2007. Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as that term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Table of Contents

In order to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2007, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, our management conducted an assessment, including testing, based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO Framework”). A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In assessing the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, management identified the following four material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2007:

Deficiencies in the Company’s Control Environment. The Company’s control environment did not sufficiently promote effective internal control over financial reporting throughout the organization. This material weakness exists because of the aggregate effect of multiple deficiencies in internal control which affect the Company's control environment, including: a) a failure to effectively implement, follow, and enforce the limits on the delegation of authority for expenditure from the Board of Directors to management, including the failure by management to obtain the required Board approvals for certain expenditures; b) the lack of an effective risk assessment process for the identification of fraud risks; c) a failure to implement and ensure the consistent and timely completion of employee acknowledgments of the Company's Code of Ethics; d) the lack of an internal audit function or other effective mechanism for ongoing monitoring of the effectiveness of internal controls; and e) insufficient documentation and communication of our accounting policies and procedures.

Deficiencies in the staffing of our financial accounting department. The number of qualified accounting personnel with experience in public company SEC reporting and GAAP is extremely limited. This weakness does not enable us to maintain adequate controls over our financial accounting and reporting processes regarding the accounting for non-routine and non-systematic transactions. There is a risk that a material misstatement of the financial statements could be caused, or at least not be detected in a timely manner, by this shortage of qualified resources. This control deficiency resulted in us recording certain adjustments prior to the issuance of our consolidated financial statements.

Deficiencies in the Company's accounting system controls. We did not effectively and accurately close the general ledger in a timely manner and we did not provide complete and accurate disclosure in our notes to financial statements, as required by GAAP. The Company failed to perform certain control procedures designed to ensure that the financial statement presentations and related disclosures were complete and in accordance with GAAP. As a result of this weakness, the Company did not identify that approximately $4.03 million of equity transactions were not properly recorded and $104,000 of property, plant and equipment, net that was not in existence as of the balance sheet date. This misstatement was corrected before the issuance of Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Deficiencies in Segregation of Duties. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer are actively involved in the preparation of the financial statements, and therefore cannot provide an independent review and quality assurance function within the accounting and financial reporting group. The limited number of qualified accounting personnel discussed above results in an inability to have independent review and approval of financial accounting entries. Furthermore, management and financial accounting personnel have wide-spread access to create and post entries in the Company’s financial accounting system. There is a risk that a material misstatement of the financial statements could be caused, or at least not be detected in a timely manner, due to insufficient segregation of duties.

Table of Contents

Based on the material weaknesses described above and the criteria set forth by the COSO Framework, we have concluded that our internal control over financial reporting at June 30, 2007, was not effective.

The Company's independent registered public accounting firm, Malone & Bailey, PC, has issued an attestation report on the Company's internal control over financial reporting. That report appears below.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Management and the Audit Committee of the Company's Board of Directors have begun to develop remedial measures to address the internal control deficiencies identified above. The Company will monitor the effectiveness of planned actions and will make any other changes and take such other actions as management or the Audit Committee determines to be appropriate.

Remediation Initiatives

During fiscal 2008, we plan to implement a number of remediation measures to address the material weaknesses described above. These organizational and process changes will improve our internal controls environment and increased the likelihood of our identifying non-routine and non-systematic transactions. The change made through the date of this annual report includes our retention of an outside consulting firm to assist us in the evaluation and testing of our internal control system and to identify improvement opportunities related to our accounting and financial reporting processes in order to streamline and improve the efficiency of these processes. The Company's remediation plans include:

We plan to hire additional personnel to assist us with documenting and communicating our accounting policies and procedures to ensure the proper and consistent application of those policies and procedures throughout the Company. Recruitment for this position(s) will begin and the selection process is expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2007.

We plan to (i) require additional training for our current accounting personnel; (ii) to hire additional accounting personnel to enable the allocation of job functions among a larger group of accounting staff; (iii) to engage outside consultants with technical accounting expertise, as needed; and (iv) to consider restructuring our accounting department, each to increase the likelihood that our accounting personnel will have the resources, experience, skills, and knowledge necessary to effectively perform the accounting system functions assigned to them.

3.	We plan to implement formal processes requiring periodic self-assessments, independent tests, and reporting of our personnel's adherence to our accounting policies and procedures.

4.	We plan to design effective policies and procedures to control security of and access to financial accounting system information. If necessary, we will also consider implementing a software solution with automatic control checkpoints for day-to-day business processes.

5.	We plan to refine our period-end financial reporting processes to improve the quality and timeliness of our financial information.

Management recognizes that many of these enhancements require continual monitoring and evaluation for effectiveness. The development of these actions is an iterative process and will evolve as the Company continues to evaluate and improve our internal controls over financial reporting.

Management will review progress on these activities on a consistent and ongoing basis at the Chief Executive Officer and senior management level in conjunction with our Audit Committee. We also plan to take additional steps to elevate Company awareness about and communication of these important issues through formal channels such as Company meetings, departmental meetings, and training.

Item 11 Executive Compensation

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

Compensation Objectives and Elements

The objectives of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors in determining executive compensation are to (1) attract and retain key individuals who are important to the continued success of Hyperdynamics, and (2) provide strong financial incentives, at reasonable cost to the shareholders, for senior management to enhance the value of the shareholders’ investment.

The elements of compensation that the Committee uses to accomplish these objectives include base salaries, stock and stock options, and employment and change in control agreements. Base salaries are targeted to attract and retain key executives.

The company’s compensation plans are designed generally to ensure full tax deductibility of compensation paid under the plans. This includes compliance with Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, which limits the company’s tax deduction for an executive’s compensation to $1 million unless certain conditions are met. For fiscal year 2007 the full amount of all compensation provided to all executives was tax deductible to the company.

Administration of Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee reviews and approves corporate goals and objectives relevant to compensation of the Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the CEO’s performance and sets his compensation. The Committee also reviews the CEO’s recommendations for and sets the salaries of other key officers.

The CEO attends Committee meetings and makes recommendations to the Committee concerning the base salaries of all subordinate officers. Neither the CEO nor any other company officer or employee attends periodic executive sessions of the Committee.

The Compensation Committee took action on matters affecting fiscal year 2007 executive compensation on the following dates:

Date		Committee Action

August 10, 2006		Approved Executive Employment Agreement and Severance Agreement for Kent P. Watts

October 7, 2006		Approved Executive Employment Agreement and Severance Agreement for Harry Briers

December 14, 2006		Confirmed Approval of Executive Employment Agreement and Severance Agreement for Harry Briers

Base Salaries

The Compensation Committee sets base salaries for officers with individual salaries based on level of responsibility and individual performance. The Committee reviewed these salaries in August and October of 2006.

Stock Incentives

The company’s Stock and Stock Option Plan (“Plan”) authorizes the Compensation Committee to grant stock options, restricted stock, and S-8 registered stock to officers and other key employees. The Committee implements this authority by awarding stock options designed to tie the interests of all senior executives to the long-term consolidated financial results of the company.

In September, 2006, Harry James Briers, Executive Vice President, requested and obtained pre-approval from the Audit Committee to give Christopher M. Watts, a related party of Mr. Kent Watts, our CEO, a bonus for work performed in Guinea and a raise in pay as the company's Investor Relations Coordinator. He received a bonus of $2,000 and a raise from $29,000 annually to $32,480 annually. The raise of $3,480 represents a 12% increase.

In October 2006, the Company hired Glen Driver as a manager in our Louisiana operations. Mr. Driver is the father of Jeremy Driver, a related party of Mr. Kent Watts, our CEO. The audit committee pre-approved the hiring in accordance with the Company's conflict of interest policy.

In 2007, an original trust for grandchildren of Earnest Watts (father of Kent Watts) was divided into five trusts for the same beneficiaries pursuant to the terms of the original trust. The original trust owned DJX LTD., which in turn held shares of Series B Preferred Stock. DJX LTD. transferred its Series B Preferred Stock to five new corporations which are owned by the five trusts.

In June 2007, four of the new corporations converted a total of 238 shares of Preferred Series B stock to 1,762,962 shares of Hyperdynamics common stock. They then exchanged 1,740,000 shares of common stock for warrants to purchase 3,480,000 shares of common stock at $4 per share. The exchange of stock for warrants facilitated the settlement of Hyperdynamics’ lawsuit with Trendsetter Investors LLC. In accordance with a price reset provision in the original warrants, the exercise price of the warrants was reduced from $4.00 per share to $2.40 per share on June 29, 2007
