NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1 – Organization, Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Norris Industries, Inc. (“NRIS” or the “Company”), was incorporated on February 19, 2014, as a Nevada corporation. The Company was formed to conduct operations in the oil and gas industry. The Company’s principal operating properties are in the Ellenberger formation in Coleman County, and in Jack County and Palo-Pinto County, Texas. The Company’s production operations are all located in the State of Texas.
On April 25, 2018, the Company incorporated a Texas registered subsidiary, Norris Petroleum, Inc., as an operating entity.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2026. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Liquidity and Capital Considerations
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for the twelve-month period following the issuance date of these condensed consolidated financial statements.
The
timeline and potential magnitude of the various conflicts around the world, as happened recently in the middle east, and its impact on
the Company’s future operations is currently unknown. The Company has incurred continuing losses since 2016, including a loss of
$
The
Company’s principal capital and exploration expenditures during next fiscal year are expected to relate to selected well workovers
on its Jack and Palo Pinto County acreages. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared
on a going concern basis. As of May 31, 2026, the Company incurred a net loss of $
In the event that the Company requires additional capital to fund higher operational losses or oil and gas property lease purchases for the next 12 months, the Company expects to seek additional capital from one or more sources via restricted private placement sales of equity and debt securities from those other than JBB. However, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to secure the necessary capital to fund its costs on acceptable terms, or at all. If, for any reason, the Company is unable to fund its operations, it would have to undertake other aggressive cost-cutting measures and then be subject to possible loss of some of its rights and interests in prospects to curtail operations and forced to forego opportunities or in worst case, cease operations. As a result of management’s plan above, our current amount of cash on hand, and our historical ability to raise capital, management has concluded that substantial doubt of our ability to continue as a going concern has been alleviated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of 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 and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expense during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
| F-5 |
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company’s operations are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including financial, operational, technological, and other risks associated with operating an emerging business, including the potential risk of business failure.
Basic net loss per common share amounts are computed by dividing the net loss available to. The Company’s shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding over the reporting period. In periods in which the Company reports a net loss, dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as the effect would be anti-dilutive. The following table summarizes the common stock equivalents excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share as the inclusion of these shares would be anti-dilutive for the three months ended May 31, 2026, and 2025:
| 2026 | 2025 | |||||||
| Series A Convertible Preferred Stock | ||||||||
| Convertible debt | ||||||||
| Total common shares to be issued | ||||||||
Concentrations of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk include cash deposits placed with financial institutions.
The Company maintains its cash in bank accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits as guaranteed by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). At May 31, 2026, $-
Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

Overview
Norris Industries, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, or “us”) is an oil and natural gas company that focuses on the acquisition, development, and exploration of crude oil and natural gas properties in Texas. As of March 1, 2025 the SEC Non-Escalated Analysis of Estimated Proved Reserve of our various leases in Jack County and Palo-Pinto County, the Marshall-Walden, and the Bend Arch Lion 1A and Bend Arch Lion 1B leaseholds, is a total of 22.11 Mbbl in oil net reserves, plus 64.19 MMcf in natural gas net reserves out of total of BOE equivalent of 33 Mbbl in gross reserves, which is down from prior year by 21 Mbbl due to reduction of expected production as result of well workover issues.
For near- to medium-term cash flow enhancement, the Company will plan to focus on existing fields and to selectively consider larger-reserve oil and gas properties with low production to acquire at reasonable cost and then implement effective Enhanced Oil Recovery (“EOR”) methods to improve its current revenues and assets. For long-term cash flow enhancement, the Company plans to identify other oil-field related, and niche enterprises to consider for bolt on, or diversified acquisition targets to grow Company revenues. This may be with the use of capital partners to buyout via the Company’s strategic joint venture partnerships, and to raise outside capital to fund any potential future acquisition.
The Company’s long-term objective is to increase shareholder value by growing reserves, production, and cash flow. As result we are actively seeking to identify and have under consideration a selected number of acquisition opportunities in the oilfield services type companies and other non-oilfield companies that may better align with our operational plans to implement a diversified growth strategy.
| 3 |
Notwithstanding the above stated objectives, the ramifications of the prior pandemic containment measures and consequent disruptions to the United States and world economies due to the COVID – 19 viral outbreaks had an adverse impact on the overall business of the Company and the industry in which it operates. The demand for oil and gas has impacted all producers as commodity prices of oil and gas had fallen and increased substantially but so has inflation resulting in higher costs for materials, equipment, personnel and service providers which the US Federal Reserve has been adjusting interest rate policies that has tightened financial conditions. In addition, in early 2022 the industry faced added complications as result of the Russian Federation invasion of Ukraine and the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel in October 2023, and the war response from Israeli forces on Gaza has created further instability in the Middle East. In June 2025, Isreal and the United States undertook a strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities. As a result, of energy prices changing we are unable to predict exact supply and demand balances that will continue to be highly volatile and thus affect our revenues into the future. Further, our low production and current price range of oil/gas prices, we anticipate that we may not be able to cover operating costs and will have to take cost-cutting measures and seek continued operational financing.
The prior COVID-19 pandemic and wars in Ukraine, Middle East and other conflicts, such as recent embargo and change in Venezuela, and Iran conflict and the various governmental and political responses and those of our subcontractors, customers and suppliers, we expect there may be delays or disruptions and temporary suspensions of operations due to shortages of labor and increased cost from suppliers. In addition, our constrained financial condition and results of operations have been and are likely to continue to be adversely affected. Thus, subject to adjustments due to the general economic consequences and the more specific impact on the oil and gas industry, the current general strategic objectives of the Company are set forth below.
Our Business Strategy
We are a small Exploration and Production (“E&P”) oil and natural gas company that focuses on the acquisition, development, and exploration of crude oil and natural gas properties in Texas. The Company is currently managed by business and oil and gas exploration veterans who specialize in the oil and gas acquisition and exploration markets of the Central West Texas region. The Company’s goal is to tap into the high potential leases of the Central West Texas region of the United States, aiming to unlock its potential, specifically in the prolific Bend Arch-Fort Worth region. This area is approximately 120 miles long and 40 miles wide running from Archer County, Texas in the north to Brown County, Texas in the south. The Company is also looking at other acquisition opportunities in the Permian Basin, West Texas, East Texas and South Texas regions.
Management believes that focusing on the development of existing small producing fields is one of the key differentiators of the Company. Oil and natural gas reserve development is a technologically oriented industry. Management believes that the use of current generally available technology has greatly increased the success rate of finding commercial oil or natural gas deposits. In this context, success means the ability to make an oil/gas well that produces a commercialized quantity of hydrocarbons.
We plan to execute the following business strategies:
Develop and Grow Our Hydrocarbon Resource Acreage Positions Using Outside Development Expertise. We plan to continue to seek and acquire niche assets in hydrocarbon-rich resource plays to improve our asset quality and expand our drilling inventory. We plan to leverage our management team’s expertise and apply the latest available EOR technologies to economically develop our existing property portfolio in Central West and East Texas in addition to any assets in other regions we may acquire. We operate much of our acreage, thus giving us certain control over the planning of capital expenditures, execution and cost reduction. Our operational plan allows us to adjust our capital spending based on drilling results and the economic environment. As a small producer, we regionally evaluate industry drilling results to implement simple yet effective operating practices which may increase our initial production rates, ultimate recovery factors and rate of return on invested capital.
The Company’s long-term objective is to increase shareholder value by growing reserves, production, and cash flow. As result we may seek to identify and consider acquisition opportunities of oilfield services companies and other non-oilfield companies to implement a diversified growth strategy.
Our management’s time in the petroleum markets and our ability to contract experienced geology expertise allows us to identify and secure acreage with potential reserves. Management believes that the Company’s near prospects as a public company could become attractive as a potential merger candidate for acquisition of a private enterprise.
Our Competitive Strengths
Management believes that we have a number of competitive strengths that will allow us to successfully execute our business strategies:
| 4 |
Simple Capital Structure. We have a simple capital structure and de-risked inventory of quality locations with what we believe is upside potential to take advantage of the current recovery of oil prices to acquire potential production at reasonable cost. Management believes there are opportunities for profits to be made now that oil prices appear to have stabilized and if they continue to gradually rise higher.
Moderate Risk Exploration Practice. Unlike many major oil companies that often drill very deep wells with a high degree of risk, we focus on shallow well exploration (sub 5,000 feet) that is less expensive and has lower risk factors. The basis for management’s belief that the wells that can be drilled in the prospective leases will have the capacity to produce a reasonable amount of hydrocarbon and due to our recent studies of the general areas where we are prospecting the projects. That is our most important exploration practice.
Under The Radar Asset Base. Management believes our local West Texas E&P team has a special talent in acquiring local “prime time” hydrocarbon land leases with sub-300 barrels of oil per day (“bopd”) wells that have large hydrocarbon reserves. Management believes that these “under the radar” prospective leases have multi-year drilling inventory and reasonable production history with high upside potential and not readily accessible to the public for auctions, thus adding to our competitive advantage on these “under the radar” opportunities. It is because management also believes that these highly valuable leases are not economically justifiable for the major oil and gas companies in the region because such companies need the wells, they drill to produce at least 300 barrels (“Bbls”) of oil per day per well.
Technologies
Oil and natural gas reserve development is a technologically oriented industry; many techniques developed by the industry are now used in other industries, including the space program. Management believes that technological innovations have made it possible for the oil and natural gas industry to furnish the fuels that power the world economy. Management also believes that technology has greatly increased the success rate of finding commercial oil or natural gas deposits. In this context, success rate means the ability to make an oil/gas well that can produce a commercialized quantity of hydrocarbon.
At NRIS, we focus on core basic field EOR management practices and contract outside experts to provide us the understanding of complex mineralogy in shale reservoirs to better determine zones prone to fracture stimulation. This technology can suggest where to frack by providing us with available data to deliver us a greater chance of success. Our field engineers, geologists and petrophysicists work together for better drilling decisions.
Sales Strategy
Our sales strategy in relation to spot pricing will be to produce less when the sales price is lower and produce more when the sales price is higher. To maintain the lowest production cost, we will aim to have our inventory be as low as possible, in some instances virtually zero. Our E&P core team has business relationships with BML, Transport Oil, and Lion Oil Trading & Transportation, for oil sales and WTG Jameson for gas sales. The Company entered into production agreements with BML, Lion Oil and WTG Jameson so that, as our tier 1 buyer, they can handle pick-up and sales of our crude oil stock to refineries and gas via local gas pipelines.
As such, crude oil will be picked up from our leases as needed during the calendar month. At the end of the month the crude total sales will be tallied by lease and the 30-day average of the daily closing of oil will be tabulated. On or about the 25th of the following month the proceeds checks’ will be issued to the financial parties of record.
Operational Plans
Overall, we seek to acquire on a selective basis, oil and gas reserve concessions with existing production. To maintain our operations and complete any acquisitions we intend to raise capital via equity or debt, be this from our control owner, or other third-party financing sources, including the capital markets. The Company is still in the process of assessing the wells it holds or recently acquired and is reviewing its options.
| 5 |
As result of the COVID-19 Pandemic, and its capital constraints, the Company took a pause on any acquisition activity in the past four years. However, the Company is in process of a strategic review of its options for 2026. As the Company reviews any potential acquisitions, it will follow a model which is based on a concept that has been proven in the past to be an effective and successful path of development for many other well-known E&P players:
| a) | The financed acquisition of mature smaller oil fields that have potential for instituting EOR incremental production processes; and |
| b) | Develop strategic partnerships with existing operators to share production increases garnered through the implementation of this EOR plan. |
The Company has plans to limit its operating budget for current wells to basic maintenance and has not determined whether to spend for any new drill programs in the near future. In furtherance of this objective, the Company recently plugged four (4) unprofitable wells.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three Months Ended May 31, 2026, with the Three Months Ended May 31, 2025
Revenues
The Company generated revenues of $90,358 from oil and gas sales for the three months ended May 31, 2026, compared to $92,770 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in revenues mainly came from a minor decrease in oil and gas production.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2026, and 2025 were 299,534 and $232,830, respectively. Our lease operating expenses increased to $148,432 for the three-month period ended May 31, 2026, compared to $134,937 for the three-month period ended May 31, 2025, that was primarily related to higher variable lease operating expenses incurred during the current period. Our general and administrative expenses increased to $149,039 for the three-month period ended May 31, 2026, compared to $83,324 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025, primarily because of increased in professional fees. Our depletion, depreciation and accretion expense decreased by $12,506, primarily related to an decrease in accretion expense and depletion expenses recognized during the three-month ended May 31, 2026, then the same period in 2025.
Other Expenses
For the three months ended May 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded interest expense of $33,142 and $27,348, respectively, related to outstanding related party debt. The increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to higher outstanding borrowings during the current quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of May 31, 2026, the Company had cash on-hand of $33,863.
Net cash used in operating activities during the three months ended May 31, 2026, was $211,513, compared to cash used in operating activities of $98,239 for the same period in 2025.
Net cash provided by financing activities for three months ended May 31, 2026, and 2025 was $200,000 and $100,000, respectively.
The Company will require additional financing to support its operations and to pursue its acquisition program. As of May 31, 2026, the Company had availability of $800,000 on its existing credit line with JBB due to a recent increase of its availability from its Lender. If the Company requires additional financing beyond what is available under its existing credit line, it does not have any committed sources of financing at this time. If it is unable to obtain financing, it will have to reduce or curtail its operations and acquisition program. There is no assurance that it will be able to obtain financing in the future, and even if financing is available, it may not be on terms acceptable to the Company.
To date, the funding during the past three fiscal years to support operations and facilitate some acquisitions has been provided by the largest shareholder of the Company. This individual does not have any legal obligation to continue to provide funding to the Company. Yet the majority owner has indicated a willingness, and provided some assurances, to selectively review and determine added funding for certain low risk initiatives on those oil and gas wells in which the Company has either a 100% or a majority working interest in order to increase its existing production. Our majority shareholder expects, but is not legally obligated, to provide funding for the Company’s capital expenditure program for fiscal year 2026. Such funding may be provided in the form of loans, issuance of equity or other means.
The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis. As of May 31, 2026, the Company incurred a net loss of $242,318 and experienced recurring negative cash flows from operations. However, the Company believes that it has sufficient cash on hand and available funds from its credit line to fund its costs for such expenditures as well as other operating costs, for the 12-month period subsequent to the issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements.
On May 26, 2025, the Company entered into another amendment of its Loan Note with JBB to increase the line of credit by an additional $500,000, for a total of $4,700,000 and extend the maturity date for the original note and line of credit to September 30, 2026. On November 12, 2025, the company entered into another amendment of its Loan Note with JBB to increase the line of credit by an additional $500,000, for a total of $4,700,000.
The loan agreement was amended on November 12, 2025, to increase available borrowing to $4,700,000. During the three months ended May 31, 2026, the JBB advanced $200,000 to fund the Company’s operations under the Loan Note. As of May 31, 2026, the Company had availability of $800,000 on its existing credit line with JBB.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, which in our case is the same individual. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of May 31, 2026 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the Evaluation Date, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the identification of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that were disclosed in Item 9A. Controls and Procedures in our 2026 annual report on Form 10-K in Internal Control over Financial Reporting and listed below.
(i) The Company does not have accounting personnel with extensive experience in maintaining books and records and preparing financial statements in accordance with US GAAP which could lead to untimely identification and resolution of accounting matters inherent in the Company’s financial transactions in accordance with US GAAP.
(ii) The Company does not have policies and procedures in place to ensure the timely review, disclosure and accurate financial reporting for significant agreements and transactions.
(iii) The Company does not have an independent audit committee in place, which would provide oversight of the Company’s officers, operations and financial reporting function.
(iv) The Company does not have sufficient accounting personnel to have a separation of their respective accounting duties.
The Company does not have an active remediation plan in operation at this time. If and when the Company has greater financial resources, it plans to engage additional persons and/or engage consultants to address the various deficiencies that are identified above.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended May 31, 2026, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
