Item 1: Business
Company Information and Business Plan
MMEX Resources Corporation (“MMEX”) was formed as a Nevada corporation in 2005. The current management team lead an acquisition of the Company (then named Management Energy, Inc.) through a reverse merger completed in 2010 and thereafter changed the Company’s name to MMEX Resources Corporation.
MMEX is focused on the development, financing, construction, and operation of clean fuels infrastructure projects powered by renewable energy. We have formed three special purpose entities of the Company - one to transition from legacy refining transportation fuels by producing them as ultra clean fuels with carbon capture, a second which plans to produce blue hydrogen from natural gas and utilize the hydrogen to produce electric power and a third which plans to produce green hydrogen converted to green ammonia in the United States and internationally. These three special purpose entities will be operating respectively as Pecos Clean Fuels & Transport, LLC, Trans Permian H2Hub, LLC and Hydrogen Global, LLC. The planned projects are designed to be powered by solar and wind renewable energy.
Our portfolio contains the following planned projects:
Pecos Clean Fuel & Transport, LLC
Project 1: Pecos Clean Fuels & Transport, LLC -Ultra Clean Fuels Refining-Pecos County, Texas
We have teamed with Polaris Engineering to develop an ultra-clean transportation fuel, up to 11,600 barrel per day feedrate crude oil refining facility at our Pecos County, Texas site to produce zero sulfur 87° gasoline, ultra-low sulfur diesel and low-sulphur fuel oil, utilizing the Polaris Ultra FuelsTM patented concept, which removes over 95% emissions of a standard refinery along with planned carbon capture features. The Ultra Fuels TM concept, with capex and technical details completed in the Front-End Load-2 (“FEL-2”) study, features modular facilities to take advantage of proximity to Permian Basin fuel markets and to locate directly near crude oil production areas near the Company’s owned 126-acre site. Because equipment is fabricated in modular units and shipped to site, this allows for an 18-month project completion time and more rapid implementation. The modular with reduced footprint, as well as lower emissions, also allows for faster permitting which we obtained for this facility from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality on February 18, 2022.

Trans Permian H2Hub, LLC
Project 1: Pecos County, Texas- Green Hydrogen to Power Project
The Company is in planning discussions with a super major oil company (the “Super Major”) to utilize its natural gas in the Permian Basin to develop a Blue Hydrogen to Power Project at the Company’s Pecos County, Texas site. The Project plans to utilize a portion of the Super Major’s 2 billion cubic feet per day natural gas production and transportation from the area to produce hydrogen utilizing a major international company’s reformer technology, In turn, the produced hydrogen will be used in Siemens Energy gas turbines and generator in combined cycle to produce up to 217.5 MW of electric power which are projected to utilize initially a 75% hydrogen-25% natural gas feed in Phase 1 and increasing to 435 MW in Phase 2 with 100% hydrogen feed, with the electric power in both Phases managed and marketed to ERCOT, the Texas power distribution hub, by the Super Major power trading desk. The project design also includes a CO2 production and capture facility with the CO2 marketed to another Super Major oil company. The Project will utilize wind and solar power as its source of energy.
Hydrogen Global, LLC
Project 1: Hydrogen Global- Pecos County, Texas- Green Hydrogen Project to Green Ammonia Project
This planned project to utilize the proprietary electrolyzer technology of Siemens Energy, a major international technology provider to the Company, plans to convert water to hydrogen through electrolysis. The facility will utilize solar power, with the Company’s owned water supply to produce up to 110 tons of hydrogen production per day. The Company and Siemens have completed the Front-End Engineering and Design (“FEED”) study, which outlines the scope of the electrolyzer complex on the Company’s 321-acre site in Pecos County, Texas. The Company is in discussions with several renewable power developers to become the technology provider for 320 MW solar power component. In addition, the Company is in discussions with a major international technology provider for the Ammonia complex, for conversion of the green hydrogen to green ammonia. The project plans to transport the ammonia by rail to the Port of Corpus Christi, then to utilize planned terminal and storage facilities at the Port to load out the ammonia with a major international shipping company for export markets. The major shipper had patterned technology to re-crack the ammonia to hydrogen on board ship for the last mile delivery to the ultimate buyer.
Project 2: Hydrogen Global- Tierra del Fuego Province Argentina-Green Hydrogen Project
On April 28, 2022, the Province of Tierra del Fuego and the Company announced the potential joint development of a green hydrogen project in the Río Grande, Tierra del Fuego area powered by wind energy. The Company has signed an amendment with Siemens Energy to adapt the Green H2 electroylzer FEED Study completed for Pecos County to this Project. In addition, the Company has a preliminary understanding with Siemens Gamesa as the technology provider for the wind energy. The Company estimates the land requirement of up to 10,000 hectares for the wind farm and the Green H2 facilities. The Company plans to use the same Pecos County project major international technology provider for the Ammonia complex and the same international shipping company for the green Ammonia to be delivered to Europe or Asia and to be re-cracked to hydrogen for the last mile delivery.

Regulation
Our Pecos Clean Fuels project already has a construction permit from the TCEQ and does not require an operation permit. Although we do not believe our planned blue hydrogen and green hydrogen projects will have any significant environmental or ecological impact, we will be subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations relating to the release of hazardous substances or solid wastes into the soil, groundwater, and surface water, and measures to control pollution of the environment. These laws generally regulate the generation, storage, treatment, transportation, and disposal of solid and hazardous waste. They also require corrective action, including investigation and remediation, at a facility where such waste may have been released or disposed. There are risks of accidental releases into the environment associated with our operations, such as releases of crude oil or hazardous substances from our pipelines or storage facilities. To the extent an event is not covered by our insurance policies, accidental releases could subject us to substantial liabilities arising from environmental cleanup and restoration costs, claims made by neighboring landowners and other third parties for personal injury and property damage, and fines or penalties for any related violations of environmental laws or regulations.

| Table of Contents |
We expect to file with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (“TCEQ”) construction and operation permits for the Blue and Green H2 Projects. We expect to employ carbon capture with the blue hydrogen facilities and have under discussion with a super major oil company the sequestration of the CO2 for EOR, which already has the requisite permits.
Our planned operations may also be subject to the Department of Homeland Security’s Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards, which are designed to regulate the security of high-risk chemical facilities, and to the Transportation Security Administration’s Pipeline Security Guidelines and Transportation Worker Identification Credential program. If applicable, we will have to have an internal program of inspection designed to monitor and enforce compliance with all of these requirements, and we will need to develop a Facility Security Plan as required under the relevant law. We will also have to have in place procedures to monitor compliance with all applicable laws and regulations regarding the security of all our facilities.
Our planned operations will also be subject to the requirements of the Occupational Safety and Health Act (“OSHA”) and comparable state statutes that regulate the protection of the health and safety of workers. In addition, the OSHA hazard communication standard requires that information be maintained about hazardous materials used or produced in operations and that this information be provided to employees, state and local government authorities and citizens. We may also become subject to OSHA Process Safety Management regulations, which are designed to prevent or minimize the consequences of catastrophic releases of toxic, reactive, flammable or explosive chemicals. We will take measures to ensure that our operations are in substantial compliance with OSHA requirements, including general industry standards, record keeping requirements, and monitoring of occupational exposure to regulated substances.
Employees
As of April 30, 2024, we had no employees but rather to reduce costs our key management team is working under consulting agreements. We contract for all professional services when needed.
Legal Proceedings
See Item 3 of this Report.
Item 1A: Risk Factors

Item 1C: Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity threats have not materially affected, and are not reasonably likely to affect, the Company, including its business strategy, results of operations or financial condition. The Company is not aware of any material security breach to date. Accordingly, the Company has not incurred any expenses over the last two years relating to information security breaches. The occurrence of cyber-incidents, or a deficiency in our cybersecurity or in those of any of our third-party service providers could negatively impact our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information and systems, or damage to our business relationships or reputation, all of which could negatively impact our business and results of operations. There can be no assurance that the Company’s third-party vendors’ and service providers’ cybersecurity risk management processes, including their policies, controls or procedures, will be effective in protecting the Company’s system and information.

Item 3: Legal Proceedings
The Company previously issued a convertible note dated February 25, 2023 (the “Sabby Note”) to Sabby Volatility Warrant Master Fund, Ltd. (“Sabby”), which also holds the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock and substantial warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. On June 1, 2023, the Company was served notice that Sabby had filed a lawsuit in a New York Supreme Court, alleging breach of contract, fraud, and failure to maintain and deliver shares under the Sabby Note. Sabby is seeking monetary damages in an amount to be determined at trial, but not less than $226,875 plus interest and other damages under the Sabby Note, plus attorney’s fees and costs of the lawsuit. The Company filed its Original Answer on July, 1, 2023 pursuant to 22 New York Rules and Regulation 202.8 B, denying each and every material allegation contained in Plaintiff’s Complaint and demanded strict proof thereof. In its Original Answer, the Company reserves the right to amend its Answer to assert additional defenses, counterclaims and third-party claims, as may be required upon the completion of reasonable discovery and investigation.
On May 6, 2024, Sabby filed for an order of contempt against the Company for not complying with the Court’s Order issued September 13, 2023. The Company agreed in a Stipulation Resolving Motion for Contempt filed on June 10, 2024 with Sabby to increase its authorized shares reserves to 35 Billion shares and to place into reserves for Sabby conversions, 10 Billion shares. On July 17, 2024, the Parties agreed to a Stipulation withdrawing the Motion for Contempt.
The Company is in compliance with the Court’s September 13, 2023 Order.
As a consequence of the Sabby Note acceleration, the Company’s obligations under other outstanding indebtedness may become accelerated pursuant to the event of default provisions thereunder. Some of these instruments are already past due and reflected as notes currently in default on the Company’s financial statements.
The Company does not have the cash resources to repay the Sabby Note or its other outstanding indebtedness and there is no assurance that it will be able to obtain sufficient capital to do so. The Company has disclosed that its ability to continue as a going concern should be considered in light of the problems, expenses and complications frequently encountered by entrance into established and emerging markets and the competitive environment in which it operates.

Penny Stock
Our stock is considered to be a penny stock. The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.
These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.

Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Our discussion includes forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Business sections in this Annual Report. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.
The following discussion and analysis constitutes forward-looking statements for purposes of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and as such involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. The words “expect”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “predict”, “believes”, “plan”, “seek”, “objective” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements or elsewhere in this report. Important factors that could cause our actual results, performance or achievement to differ materially from our expectations are discussed in detail in Item 1 above. All written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by such factors. We undertake no obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we are not entitled to rely on the safe harbor for forward looking statements under 27A of the Securities Act or 21E of the Exchange Act as long as our stock is classified as a penny stock within the meaning of Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act. A penny stock is generally defined to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined in Rule 3a51-1) of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, including the notes thereto.
Overview
Business Overview
Since 2016, the focus of our business has been to build crude oil distillation units and refining facilities (CDUs) in the Permian Basin in West Texas. We revised our business plan in 2021 to move MMEX to clean energy production, leveraging our history, management and business relationships from the traditional energy sector.
Since 2021 MMEX has expanded its focus to the development, financing, construction and operation of clean fuels infrastructure projects powered by renewable energy. . We have formed three special purpose entities of the Company - one to transition from legacy refining transportation fuels by producing them as ultra clean fuels with carbon capture, a second which plans to produce blue hydrogen from natural gas and utilize the hydrogen to produce electric power and a third which plans to produce green hydrogen converted to green ammonia in the United States and internationally. These three sub-divisions will be operating respectively as Pecos Clean Fuels & Transport, LLC, Trans Permian H2Hub, LLC and Hydrogen Global, LLC. The planned projects are designed to be powered by solar and wind renewable energy.
Through April 30, 2024, we have had no revenues and have reported continuing losses from operations.
Results of Operations
We recorded a net loss of $8,194,086 or $(0.0011) per share, for fiscal year ended April 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $4,513,882 or $(0.05) per share, for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023. As discussed below, the net income or loss for any fiscal year fluctuates materially due to non-operating gains and losses.
Revenues
We have not yet begun to generate revenues.
General and Administrative Expenses
Our general and administrative expenses decreased $423,881 to $1,256,168 for the year ended April 30, 2024 from $1,680,049 for the year ended April 30, 2023. The decrease resulted from lower consultant fee costs, dues and subscriptions costs and travel expenses costs.
Project Costs
Our project costs decreased $82,705 to $11,851 for the year ended April 30, 2024 from $94,556 for the year ended April 30, 2023. The levels of spending on our projects will vary from period to period based on availability of financing and will be expensed as project costs are incurred. During the year ended April 30, 2024, the decrease in project costs was because we did not have funding available to invest in our projects during the current year.

| Table of Contents |
Depreciation and Amortization Expense
Our depreciation and amortization expenses were unchanged at $36,394 for the years ended April 30, 2024 and 2023 respectively. The expense results from the depreciation of land improvements and amortization of land easements.
Other Income (Expense)
Our interest expense increased $105,880 to $340,773 for the year ended April 30, 2024 from $234,893 for the year ended April 30, 2023. The increase is attributed to new debt agreements and debt issued with debt discounts being amortized to interest expense during the year ended April 30, 2024
We reported a loss on extinguishment of debt of $819,346 for the year ended April 30, 2024 compared to a gain on extinguishment of debt of $66,413 for the year ended April 30, 2023. The gain/loss on extinguishment of debt generally results from the settlement and extinguishment of convertible notes payable and certain accounts payable and accrued expenses and can fluctuate over time as we are able to settle or pay off debt.
Net Income (Loss)
As a result of the above, we reported net losses of $2,464,533 and $1,979,480 for the years ended April 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Deemed Dividend
Effective June 7, 2022 we reduced the conversion price of our Series B preferred stock from $0.10 to $0.05. This resulted in the recognition of a deemed dividend of $2,534,402 during the year ended April 30, 2023 in order to account for the change in fair value of the Series B preferred stock. During the year ended April 30, 2024 the conversion price of our Series B preferred stock was again reduced to $0.000058 per share, which resulted in the recognition of a deemed dividend of $5,729,553 during the year ended April 30, 2024 in order to account for the change in fair value of the Series B preferred stock.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Common Shareholders
As a result of the deemed dividend, our net loss attributed to common shareholders was $8,194,086 and $4,513,882 for the years ended April 30, 2024 and April 30, 2023, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Working Capital
As of April 30, 2024, we had current assets of $3,898, comprised of cash of $898 and prepaid expenses and other current assets of $3,000, and current liabilities of $4,859,061, resulting in a working capital deficit of $4,855,163.

Going Concern Uncertainty
Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred continuous losses from operations, have an accumulated deficit of $80,921,391 and a total stockholders’ deficit of $3,813,754 at April 30, 2024, and have reported negative cash flows from operations since inception. In addition, as of April 30, 2024 we did not have the cash resources to meet our operating commitments for the next twelve months. We require capital investments to implement our business plan, including the development of our planned hydrogen projects. Additionally, our ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses and complications frequently encountered by entrance into established markets and the competitive environment in which we operate.
We expect to continue to seek additional funding through private or public equity and debt financing. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs and/or to raise funds to finance ongoing operations and repay debt. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to raise additional debt or equity capital and/or that our cash generated by our operations will be adequate to meet our needs. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to inventories, investments, intangible assets, income taxes, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
For further information on our significant accounting policies see the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report. There were no material changes to our significant accounting policies during the year ended April 30, 2024 and there are no policies we deem to be critical accounting policies.

Item 9A(T): Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of April 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2024. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on our evaluation, management concluded that we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2024, based on the COSO framework criteria. Management believes our processes and controls are sufficient to ensure the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-K were fairly stated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management has made changes to the Company's internal control over financial reporting through the date of this report and/or through the quarter ended April 30, 2024, that materially affected the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, management increased its accounting personnel and made numerous changes to its accounting processes which resulted in a segregation of duties and the implementation of reviews and monitoring activities which have added controls into the accounting processes and improved our financial reporting. Additionally, management established a formal written policy for the approval, identification, and authorization of related party transactions.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Independent Registered Accountant's Internal Control Attestation
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance
Directors and Executive Officers
The Board of Directors currently consists of two persons. Directors serve until the next annual meeting and until their successors are elected and qualified. The following table sets forth information about our directors and executive officers:

Jack W. Hanks |
| 77 |
| Director, Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer |
| 2010 |
Bruce N. Lemons |
| 69 |
| Director |
| 2010 |
________________________
Mr. Hanks has served as Director, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Company since the merger of Maple Carpenter Creek, LLC with the Company in September 2010. Mr. Hanks founded Maple Resources Corporation in 1986 and has been President or Chairman of the Board of Maple Resources since its inception. Mr. Hanks has also been the Executive Chairman of Maple Energy plc, a publicly listed company on the London Stock Exchange AIM and the Lima Bolsa. Prior to founding Maple Resources Corporation, Mr. Hanks was a partner in the Washington D.C. office of the law firm of Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP. Mr. Hanks graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a law degree in 1971 and a petroleum land management degree in 1968. We believe that Mr. Hanks’ business, finance and management experience qualifies him to serve as a member of our board of directors.
Mr. Lemons has been a practicing lawyer in the mineral area for over 25 years. He has been a private investor in oil and gas and coal projects in the last several years, including in Maple Carpenter Creek, LLC and Maple Energy, plc and predecessor entities. Since 2002, Mr. Lemons has served as a director of Ansen, an electronics manufacturing company based in upstate New York. Mr. Lemons was a partner in the law firms of Holme Roberts & Owen and in Holland & Hart. Mr. Lemons graduated law school from Brigham Young University in 1980, where he was a member of law review, and holds undergraduate degrees in Economics and Political Science from Utah State University. We believe that Mr. Lemons’ business, finance and management experience qualifies him to serve as a member of our board of directors.
We are not aware of any “family relationships” (as defined in Item 401(d) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC) among directors, executive officers, or persons nominated or chosen by us to become directors or executive officers.
The Board of Directors has determined that neither director is “independent” as such term is defined by the listing standards of Nasdaq and the rules of the SEC. Mr. Lemons is not “independent” due to his significant beneficial ownership of our common stock. Mr. Hanks is not “independent” due to his significant beneficial ownership of our common stock and his role as an executive officer of the Company.
Audit, Nominating and Compensation Committees
Because we are not listed on a securities exchange, we are not required to establish audit, nominating or compensation committees of the Board of Directors and we have not done so. In the event we elect to seek listing on a securities exchange, we will meet the corporate governance requirements imposed by a national securities exchange, including the appointment of an audit committee, nominating committee and compensation committee, the adoption of charters for each such committee and the appointment of independent directors to such committees as required by the requirements of such securities exchange.

INDEX TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
MMEX Resources Corporation
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of MMEX Resources Corporation (the Company), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of April 30, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2024 and 2023 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has recurring net losses, working capital deficit, and stockholders’ deficit as of April 30, 2024, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Capital Stock and Other Equity Accounts
As discussed in Note 8, during the year ended April 30, 2024 the Company issued warrants in conjunction with the issuance of debt to third parties. Auditing management’s calculation of the fair value of the warrants can be a significant judgment given the fact that the Company uses management estimates on various inputs to the calculations.
To test the valuation of the warrants, we evaluated management’s significant judgments and estimates. Significant judgements and estimates related to the valuation of the warrants include fair valuing of which involve significant estimates of volatility, grant terms, risk-free rates and the use of historical trading data. We evaluated management’s conclusions regarding their fair values and reviewed support for the significant inputs used in the valuation model, as well as assessing the model for reasonableness. In addition, we evaluated the Company’s disclosure in relation to this matter included in Note 8 to the financial statements.
To evaluate the appropriateness of the instrument’s classification, we examined and evaluated the agreement along with management’s evaluation of the key terms and management’s disclosure of the transactions.

All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
The Company has adopted a fiscal year end of April 30.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its aforementioned subsidiaries and entities under common ownership. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The ownership interests in subsidiaries that are held by owners other than the Company are recorded as non-controlling interest and reported in our consolidated balance sheets within stockholders’ deficit. Losses attributed to the non-controlling interest and to the Company are reported separately in our consolidated statements of operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
| F-10 |
| Table of Contents |
Property and equipment
Property and equipment is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net recoverable amount, and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life or legal life of the related asset as follows:
Office furniture and equipment | |
Computer equipment and software | |
Land improvement | |
Land easements |
The land easements owned by the Company have a legal life of
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments will be capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation will be removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, will be reflected in operations.
The Company will assess the recoverability of property and equipment by determining whether the depreciation and amortization of these assets over their remaining life can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of equipment impairment, if any, will be measured based on fair value and is charged to operations in the period in which such impairment is determined by management.
Fair value of financial instruments
Under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, the FASB establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes reported on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short-term nature of the instruments.
An entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value using a hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy prioritized the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

| Table of Contents |
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), as amended. ASC 606 provides a single comprehensive model to be used in the accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The standard’s stated core principle is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, ASC 606 includes provisions within a five-step model that includes identifying the contract with a customer, identifying the performance obligations in the contract, determining the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizing revenue when, or as, an entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Project costs
All project costs incurred, including acquisition of refinery rights, planning, design and permitting, have been recorded as project costs and expensed as incurred.
Advertising and promotion
All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred. For the year ended April 30, 2024 and 2023, $
Income taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets for which it does not consider realization of such assets to be more likely than not.
Uncertain tax positions
The Company has adopted FASB standards for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. These standards prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. These standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.
Various taxing authorities periodically audit the Company's income tax returns. These audits include questions regarding the Company's tax filing positions, including the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income to various tax jurisdictions. In evaluating the exposures connected with these various tax filing positions, including state and local taxes, the Company records allowances for probable exposures. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter, for which an allowance has been established, is audited and fully resolved. The Company has not yet undergone an examination by any taxing authorities and has not identified any uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its consolidated financial statements.
| F-12 |
| Table of Contents |
The assessment of the Company's tax position relies on the judgment of management to estimate the exposures associated with the Company's various filing positions.
Basic and diluted income (loss) per share
Basic net income or loss per common share is calculated by dividing net income or loss (available to common stockholders) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income or loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock, such as stock options, warrants, convertible debt and convertible preferred stock, were exercised or converted into common stock. As of April 30, 2024 and 2023 all potentially dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share; therefore, basic net loss per common share is the same as diluted net loss per share.
Stock-based compensation
Pursuant to FASB ASC 718, the Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments, including grants of stock options and warrants, to acquire goods and/or services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably determinable. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined as the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance is reached or (ii) the date at which the performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued for services to be performed over time, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the service period. For the year ended April 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded stock-based compensation of $
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for the prior year have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has reviewed all new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB and does not believe any of the accounting pronouncements has had, or will have, a material impact on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred continuous losses from operations, have an accumulated deficit of $
| F-13 |
| Table of Contents |
Since inception, our operations have primarily been funded through private debt and equity financing, and we expect to continue to seek additional funding through private or public equity and debt financing. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs and/or to raise funds to finance ongoing operations and repay debt. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to raise additional debt or equity capital and/or that our cash generated by our operations will be adequate to meet our needs. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 9 – INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with standards of disclosure propounded by the FASB, and any related interpretations of those standards sanctioned by the FASB. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, as well as a consideration of net operating loss and credit carry forwards, using enacted tax rates in effect for the period in which the differences are expected to impact taxable income. A valuation allowance is established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
No provision for income taxes has been recorded due to the net operating loss carryforwards totaling approximately $

NOTE 10 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal
In the ordinary course of business, we may be, or have been, involved in legal proceedings from time to time.
Sabby Volatility Warrant Master Fund, Ltd. (“Sabby”) commenced litigation against us in a New York State Court, alleging the Company’s breach of contract, fraud, and failure to maintain and deliver shares under the convertible note previously issued by the Company to Sabby. Sabby also holds the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock and substantial warrants to purchase shares of our Common Stock. During September 2023, the court granted Sabby’s request for an order (i) granting specific performance of Sabby’s past and future requests for conversion, (ii) enjoining the Company from issuing shares of its Common Stock until it has complied with the order and (iii) directing the Company’s transfer agent to take all actions necessary to enforce the order, including reserving shares issuable upon Sabby’s conversion of its outstanding note payable.
Sabby subsequently sought and obtained a default order of contempt, entered on October 20, 2023, which among other matters cited the Company’s failure to transfer shares without restriction and to reserve a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to honor Sabby’s potential conversions of its convertible note, Series B Preferred Stock and warrants. Upon the Company’s motion to vacate the contempt order, the court vacated the contempt order on December 5, 2023.
On May 6, 2024, Sabby filed for an order of contempt against the Company for not complying with the Court’s Order issued September 13, 2023.
The Company is in compliance with the Court’s September 13, 2023 Order.
