NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of September 30, 2024
1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Business description
Okmin Resources, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, “Okmin” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada in December 2020 to engage in the business of the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas properties, mineral rights, and other natural resource assets.
Okmin has been focused on the acquisition and development of domestic oil and gas fields and investing in lower profile rework and recompletion opportunities with lower entry costs. The Company's initial projects are located in Oklahoma and Kansas.
The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries that conduct oil and gas activities: Okmin Operations, LLC, organized on May 25, 2021 in the State of Kansas, and Okmin Energy LLC, organized on November 21, 2021 in the State of Oklahoma.
The Company has an interest in four separate projects:
| 1) | The Blackrock Joint Venture encompassing 15 oil and gas leases in Oklahoma; | |
| 2) | A 72.5% Net Revenue Interest in the Vitt oil lease located in Neosho County, Kansas; | |
| 3) | A 50% Joint Venture interest in West Sheppard Pool, a natural gas project in North East Oklahoma; and | |
| 4) | A 50% Joint Venture interest in Pushmataha, a natural gas project in Southeast Oklahoma. |
The Company has not conducted any reserve evaluations or calculations, and there are currently no proven reserves on any of the Company’s properties.
The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding to advance the Company’s current plan to rework and possibly develop its existing projects and to identify and acquire new projects.
The Company’s fiscal year end is June 30.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Company maintains its accounts on the accrual method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Accounting principles followed and the methods of applying those principles, which materially affect the determination of financial position, results of operations and cash flows are summarized below.
The financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis and include all of the accounts of Okmin Resources, Inc and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
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 certain assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash and cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid temporary
cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2024, the Company cash totaled
$
| 5 |
OKMIN RESOURCES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of September 30, 2024 |
Oil and gas properties
The Company uses the full cost method of accounting for exploration and development activities as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“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 property acquisition, 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.
Oil and gas properties include costs that are excluded from costs being depleted or amortized. Oil and natural gas property costs excluded represent investments in unevaluated properties and include non-producing leasehold, geological, and geophysical costs associated with leasehold or drilling interests and exploration drilling costs. The Company allocates a portion of its acquisition costs to unevaluated properties based on relative value. Costs are transferred to the full cost pool as the properties are evaluated over the life of the reservoir. Unevaluated properties are reviewed for impairment annually and are determined through an evaluation considering, among other factors, seismic data, requirements to relinquish acreage, drilling results, remaining time in the commitment period, remaining capital plan, and political, economic, and market conditions.
Gains and losses on the sale of oil and gas properties are not generally reflected in income unless the gain or loss would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves. Sales of less than 100% of the Company’s interest in the oil and gas property are treated as a reduction of the capital cost of the field, with no gain or loss recognized, as long as doing so does not significantly affect the unit-of-production depletion rate. Costs of retired equipment, net of salvage value, are usually charged to accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation, depletion, and amortization
The depreciable base for oil and natural gas properties includes the sum of all capitalized costs net of accumulated depreciation, depletion, and amortization (“DD&A”), estimated future development costs and asset retirement costs not included in oil and natural gas properties, less costs excluded from amortization. The depreciable base of oil and natural gas properties is amortized on a unit-of-production method.
Asset retirement obligations
The fair value of a liability for an asset’s retirement obligation (“ARO”) is recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made, with the corresponding charge capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The liability is accreted to its then-present value each subsequent period, and the capitalized cost is depleted over the useful life of the related asset. Abandonment costs incurred are recorded as a reduction of the ARO liability.
Inherent in the fair value calculation of an ARO are numerous assumptions and judgments including the ultimate settlement amounts, inflation factors, credit adjusted discount rates, timing of settlement, and changes in the legal, regulatory, environmental, and political environments. To the extent future revisions to these assumptions impact the fair value of the existing ARO liability, a corresponding adjustment is made to the oil and gas property balance. Settlements greater than or less than amounts accrued as ARO are recorded as a gain or loss upon settlement.
Fair Value
The Company measures and discloses the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the fair value hierarchy in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. The fair value hierarchy has three levels, which are based on reliable available inputs of observable data. The hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.
ASC 820 requires that assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
Level 1—Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets or observable inputs.
Level 2—Significant other observable inputs that observable market data can corroborate; and
Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs that observable market data cannot corroborate.
Financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, oil and gas properties, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, note payable, and interest payable. The recorded values of all financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates or durations.
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial statement. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

OKMIN RESOURCES INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of September 30, 2024 |
Revenue recognition
The Company is not the operator of any of its oil and gas properties. Sales of all oil and gas produced are the responsibility of the property operator. The operator recognizes revenue when production is sold at a fixed or determinable price, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, title has transferred, and collectability is reasonably assured in accordance with ASC 606. The Company only recognizes oil and gas revenues when the operator has provided the Company with confirmation of the completed sale and the amount of the revenue attributable to the Company’s working interest has been determined.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Stock-based compensation is recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on the fair value which is measured on the grant date for stock-settled awards. That expense is recognized over the period during which a grantee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period, or in the period of grant for awards that vest immediately without any future service condition. For awards that vest over time, previously recognized compensation cost is reversed if the service or performance conditions are not satisfied and the award is forfeited.
Income taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities, their respective tax bases and operating loss, and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities or a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced to estimated amounts to be realized using a valuation allowance. A valuation allowance is applied when in management’s view, it is more likely than not that such deferred tax asset will be unable to be utilized.
3. GOING CONCERN
The Company currently has limited operations. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated
financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $
The Company had a working capital deficit of $
The Company’s future success is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations, generate cash from operating activities and obtaining additional financing. If such additional financing is not available on terms acceptable to us or at all, then we may need to curtail our operations and/or take additional measures to conserve and manage our liquidity and capital resources, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, and our ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The 26 existing wells on the leases range from 850 feet to 1,950 feet in depth with gas production from several zones as their main objective. During the year ended June 30, 2024, gas sales continued to be suspended on the property due the failure of equipment owned by the gas pipeline company at its compressor station. In order to replace the failed equipment, the gas pipeline company is requiring additional gas throughput to justify the investment. As a result of this, in quarter ending September 30, 2024, the Company recorded no revenues from the project.
During the second half of calendar 2023, our partner and operator, Blackrock Energy, LLC agreed to a farmout agreement of its working interests in West Sheppard Pool (with the exception of a 2% overriding royalty interest maintained by Blackrock). Blackrock’s interests were transferred to Sheppard Pool Operating, LLC (hereinafter referred to as “SPO”), the owner of the adjacent East Sheppard Pool leases. SPO also became the Operator of record on the project. This transaction does not change the Company’s working interests in the project.
The Company and SPO had already
previously entered into a gas gathering agreement in June 2023 in an effort to restore and ultimately improve gas flows into the gas transit
pipeline system. SPO has completed some work to upgrade the West Sheppard Pool leases, though to date gas sales have not resumed. In the
three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded expenditures at West Sheppard Pool of $Nil

As of November 1, 2021, the Company agreed to compensate
its Chief Executive Officer, President, and Chief Financial Officer Jonathan Herzog, at a rate of $13,500 per month, consisting of $6,750
in cash compensation and $6,750 to be accrued and deferred until management determines that the Company is in a position to make such
payments. Such accrued amounts may be paid in cash or may be satisfied through the issuance of common stock or preferred stock in lieu

10. CONVERTIBLE LOAN
In November 2021, the Company entered into a convertible
loan agreement with an accredited investor (the “Investor”) pursuant to which the Company raised $
On January 3, 2023, the convertible loan agreement was amended to limit the Investor’s ability to convert the loan to only that portion of the outstanding loan amount that would result in the Investor being the beneficial owner of not more than 9.99% of the Company’s class of common stock. In the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the Company, in agreement with the Investor, temporarily suspended monthly repayments. The loan continued to accrue interest during this period.
The Company has determined that the loan is accounted for as a liability and not equity as repayment is being made in cash pursuant to the repayment schedule, and no conversion of any of the principal or interest into common shares has been made. Management assessed there is no embedded derivative and therefore no need for the bifurcation of proceeds at initial recognition.

Overview
Okmin Resources, Inc. was organized in 2020 to engage in the business of the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral rights and natural resource assets.
As a development stage company, Okmin has been focused on the acquisition and development of domestic oil and gas fields, investing in lower profile rework and recompletion opportunities with lower entry costs. The Company's initial projects are located in Oklahoma and Kansas.
The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries that conduct oil and gas activities, Okmin Operations, LLC, incorporated on May 25, 2021 in the State of Kansas, and Okmin Energy LLC, incorporated on November 21, 2021 in the State of Oklahoma.
The Company has an interest in four separate projects:
| 1) | The Blackrock Joint Venture encompassing 15 oil and gas leases in Oklahoma | |
| 2) | A 72.5% Net Revenue Interest in the Vitt oil lease located in Neosho County, Kansas | |
| 3) | A 50% joint venture interest in West Sheppard Pool, a natural gas project in North East Oklahoma | |
| 4) | A 50% joint venture interest in Pushmataha, a natural gas project in South East Oklahoma. |
The Company has not conducted any reserve evaluations or calculations, and there are currently no proven reserves on any of the Company’s properties.
Blackrock Joint Venture
Okmin entered into a Joint Venture Agreement and Operating Agreement in February 2021, committing $100,000 in the initial phase to acquire working interests in ten oil and gas leases located in Okmulgee and Muskogee Counties in Oklahoma. Under the Operating Agreement, Okmin has a 50% Working Interest in 710 acres and a 25% interest in 80 acres. The Company’s Joint Venture partner, Blackrock Energy LLC (“Blackrock”), is the operator of the project. Pursuant to a further agreement entered into on June 10, 2022, the Company added an additional five oil and gas leases across 739 acres to its Joint Venture with Blackrock, thereby expanding the overall project to fifteen leases covering over 1,500 acres. In the three months ended September 30, 2024, lease operating expenses including taxes recorded across the extended Joint Venture totaled $5,334 and our share of the Joint Venture recorded revenues of $4,808 from oil and gas sales, predominantly oil, compared with $14,556 in revenues for the corresponding three months ended September 30, 2023.
| 13 |
Vitt Lease
The Company through its wholly owned Kansas subsidiary, Okmin Operations, LLC entered into an agreement in July 2021 to acquire a 72.5% Net Revenue Interest in the Vitt Lease located in Neosho County, Kansas. Okmin Operations, LLC acquired the lease with a cash payment of $25,000 together with a commitment to make additional capital and operating expenditures to rework the wells on the lease. The lease covers 160 acres and after initial reworking now includes nine oil wells, two idle wells and four water injection wells. At present the wells are not pumping, as they require additional maintenance work. As of the fiscal year ending on June 30, 2024, aggregate additional expenditures beyond the purchase totaled approximately $108,000. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company did not conduct any work on the Vitt lease, so expenditures totaled $250. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company received no revenue from the project compared to revenues for the three months ending September 30, 2023 of $1,972.
The Vitt Lease has now become a small nominal lease able to produce oil, though not on a consistent basis as we continue to encounter various maintenance issues that have to be addressed. The Company continues to explore a number of possibilities for the Vitt Lease, which may include involving a partner in its further development.
West Sheppard Pool
In August 2021, the Company entered into an option agreement with Blackrock to acquire a 50% joint venture interest in the West Sheppard Pool Field, a series of leases totaling 1,930 acres located in Okmulgee County, Oklahoma. In November 2021, the Company exercised its option and entered into a definitive joint venture and operating agreement with Blackrock at a cost of $150,000 in cash.
The 26 existing wells on the leases range from 850 feet to 1,950 feet in depth with gas production from several zones as their main objective.
During the second half of calendar 2023, our partner and operator, Blackrock Energy, LLC agreed to a farmout agreement of its working interests in West Sheppard Pool (with the exception of a 2% overriding royalty interest maintained by Blackrock). Blackrock’s interests were transferred to Sheppard Pool Operating, LLC (hereinafter referred to as “SPO”), the owner of the adjacent East Sheppard Pool leases. SPO also became the Operator of record on the project. This transaction does not change our working interests in the project.
The Company and SPO had previously entered into a gas gathering agreement in June 2023 in an effort to restore and ultimately improve gas flows into the gas transit pipeline system. During the year ended June 30, 2024 and the three months ended September 30, 2024, we received no revenue from the property as gas sales continued to be suspended due to further required pipeline work and the failure of equipment owned by the gas pipeline company at its compressor station. In order to replace the failed equipment, the gas pipeline company is requiring additional gas throughput to justify the investment. SPO has been working to upgrade the gas gathering system on the property, including replacing older gas gathering lines with new modern lines. The older lines were discovered to contain numerous leaks which likely contributed to a lack of throughput to the compressor station.
Prior to the suspension of activities following a compressor outage, only 6 of the 26 wells on the property were selling into the pipeline. Subsequently an additional 4 wells were connected in late 2022, so in total there are now 10 of the 26 wells at West Sheppard Pool connected to the gas gathering system. Many of those wells would likely benefit from workovers to increase their production potential, and six wells were identified by the operator for reentry to perforate and fracture new zones for both oil and gas. The property also has the potential for infill drilling for new wells within the property. Any work is dependent upon obtaining additional capital, which could include adding an additional partner to fund this work program.
Pushmataha
In December 2021, the Company exercised its option and entered into a definitive joint venture and operating agreement with Blackrock to acquire 50% of Blackrock’s interest in the Pushmataha Gas Field, comprising 6 leases covering an area of 3,840 acres located in Pushmataha County, Oklahoma. Blackrock had previously entered into a separate option to acquire working interests ranging from 92 -100% in the existing wells and lease acreage from a third party. In connection with the initial acquisition, the Company expended approximately $253,000 in cash. Under the terms of the Joint Venture agreement, after deducting operating costs including a flat sum of $1,000 per month to Blackrock as operator, the Company shall receive all net income from revenues of the project until it has recouped $125,000, thereafter, the parties shall equally split the income.
The Company has a 50% ownership interest in the Joint Venture with Blackrock. The leases owned by the Joint Venture are subject to landowner royalties and other commitments resulting in net revenue interests to the joint venture of between 71% - 76%, with the exception of the Stephenson well, which has a net revenue interest of approximately 68%.
| 14 |
Pushmataha has seven existing gas wells ranging in depth from 10,000 - 12,300 feet. The wells were inactive since 2019 due to line leaks and lower gas prices, though in April 2021 some wells were put back online and have at various intervals produced between 100 - 300 thousand cubic feet per day (MCFD).
The existing seven wells show additional behind-pipe zones and the joint venture partners assessed recompleting a new zone in one of the wells called the KDC. The operator had a rig out on site at KDC in late January 2023 and commenced some work on the well and were planning to conduct a recompletion, though weather conditions made it too dangerous to proceed. Plans were also underway for the operator to commence repairing or possibly replacing the plunger lift systems of some of the wells, with the goal of dewatering the wells to enable the gas to flow freely. The joint venture partners have temporarily deferred pursuing this active rework activity during the current downturn in natural gas pricing or until additional capital is available.
A hydrocarbon survey was conducted in July 2022 across these leases utilizing a third party patented remote sensing technology. The survey has provided the operator with valuable data in charting the potential for the future development of this project. There is also space to drill new gas wells on the 3,840-acre leasehold, using the hydrocarbon mapping as a tool to locate the optimal drilling locations in these reservoirs.
In the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company’s lease operating expenditures on the project were $3,538 with additional gas fees, transportation and taxes aggregating $717. For the three months ended September 30, 2024 the Company recorded $1,242 in revenues from the project compared to revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $6,149.
The operator believes with additional capital expenditures for reworking and recompletion efforts it can further optimize the production potential of this field. The application of newer technologies could also have an important impact on the economics for this asset.
-----------------------------------------------
Management is actively evaluating various new strategic investment and acquisition opportunities in the resources sector, including opportunities to potentially broaden our activities beyond the development of conventional oil and gas projects.
No agreements to acquire new assets or interests have been reached, and any future agreements would be subject to the Company being able to secure adequate additional financing.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the Three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the Three months ended September 30, 2023
Revenue
We generated $5,991 in revenue from oil and gas sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $22,677 in revenues generated in the three months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in revenue is predominantly attributable to lower natural gas prices. These lower prices not only reduced the sales price we received for each MCF sold, but also led to the curtailment of operations on certain of our properties until prices improve which resulted in a decrease of our production volumes. We also received $507 in interest income from our cash balances for three months ended September 30, 2024.
General and Administrative Expense
General and administrative expenses decreased to $59,379 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $104,928 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This decrease is attributable to a decrease in legal and professional fees and the Company’s curtailment of some operations. Expenses related to compensation, interest, rent, accounting and professional fees and other general and administrative expenses necessary for our operations.
Net Loss
The net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $67,785 compared to a net loss of $111,835 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The expenses during the three month period ended September 30, 2024, included: $9,717 in lease operating expenses (including taxes and royalties), $40,500 in deferred and unpaid compensation, $4,320 in interest expense and financing costs, $8,400 in compliance listing related fees, $9,599 in accounting and professional fees and other general and administrative expenses necessary for our operations. Expenses during the comparative three month period ended September 30, 2023, including lease operating expenses, were higher and included: $33,485 in lease operating expenses (including taxes and royalties), $40,500 in compensation, a non-cash amount of $25,300 in connection with the services of outside consultants with stock issued in lieu of services, $4,278 in interest expense, legal and professional fees and other general and administrative expenses necessary for our operations.
Net cash (used) from financing
Net cash used in financing activities in the three months ended September 30, 2024 totaled $6,000 which was entirely for repayment of debt. Net cash from financing activities in the corresponding period ended September 30, 2023 totaled $108,325, which was predominantly comprised of stock issued in lieu of services during the period

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Current Financial Condition
As of September 30, 2024, we had total assets of $366,615, comprised primarily of cash and cash equivalents of $73,602, oil and gas properties $292,877 and prepaid expenses of $136. As at March 31, 2024, we had total liabilities of $600,938, primarily comprised of convertible debt and related interest payable of $202,506, accounts payable of $36,480 and accrued liabilities of $317,250 which is predominantly deferred compensation expense as the CEO is currently deferring salary in an effort to conserve cash.
Our business plan calls for substantial capital resource requirements and we have incurred significant losses since inception. The Company had a net loss of $67,785 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and an accumulated deficit of $1,776,303 as of September 30, 2024. The Company had a working capital deficit of $527,336 as at September 30, 2024. For the 2025 fiscal year we anticipate cash needs of approximately $300,000 for general corporate overhead and for operations on our existing lease properties. This amount does not include funding for any potential workovers, re-entries, stimulation treatments and recompletions of existing non or low producing wells. Any new work on our properties will require additional capital. A portion of the required cash will be obtained from oil and gas sales. The Company plans to obtain the remainder of the required capital through private sales of securities or debt financing.
To date, we have funded our operations primarily through the issuance of equity and/or convertible securities for cash. We depend upon debt and/or equity financing and revenues to fund our ongoing operations and to execute our current business plan. In the current 2024 fiscal year, such capital requirements will be in excess of what we have in available cash for planned ongoing activities.
We will be required to obtain alternative or additional financing from financial institutions, investors or otherwise, in order to maintain and expand our existing operations. The failure by us to obtain such financing would have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition and results of operations, and adversely affecting our ability to complete ongoing activities.
Critical Accounting Estimates
This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Preparation of financial statements requires management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses, and the related disclosures of contingencies. Management bases its estimates on various assumptions and historical experience, which are believed to be reasonable; however, due to the inherent nature of estimates, actual results may differ significantly due to changed conditions or assumptions. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are fairly presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe any recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s present or future financial statements.
Going Concern Qualification
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
As reflected in the accompanying condensed financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $67,785 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and an accumulated deficit of $1,776,303 as of September 30, 2024. These factors, among others, raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company had a working capital deficit of $527,336 as at September 30, 2024 and for the 2025 fiscal year we anticipate cash needs of approximately $300,000 for general corporate overhead and for operations on our existing lease properties. This amount does not include funding for any potential workovers, re-entries, stimulation treatments and recompletions of existing non or low producing wells. Any new work on our properties will require additional capital. A portion of the required cash will be obtained from oil and gas sales. The Company plans to obtain the remainder of the required capital through private sales of securities or debt financing.
The Company’s future success is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations, generate cash from operating activities and obtaining additional financing. If such additional financing is not available on terms acceptable to us or at all, then we may need to curtail our operations and/or take additional measures to conserve and manage our liquidity and capital resources, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, and our ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
| 16 |
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Inflation
The effect of inflation on our revenue and operating results was not significant.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
At the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we conducted an evaluation (the “Evaluation”), under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, the disclosure controls and procedures of our Company were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports was recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis because of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.
Material Weaknesses and Corrective Actions
In connection with the audits of our financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we identified certain deficiencies relating to our internal control over financial reporting that constitute a material weakness under standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”). The PCAOB defines a material weakness as 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. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis.
The following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting continued to exist at September 30, 2024:
| ● | We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”); | |
| ● | We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our limited size and early-stage nature of operations, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible; however, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals; | |
| ● | We lack an audit committee of our board of directors; and | |
| ● | We have insufficient monitoring and review of controls over the financial reporting closing process, including the lack of individuals with current knowledge of U.S. GAAP. |
We believe that these material weaknesses primarily relate, in part, to our lack of sufficient staff with appropriate training in U.S. GAAP and SEC rules and regulations with respect to financial reporting functions, and the lack of robust accounting systems, as well as the lack of sufficient resources to hire such staff and implement these accounting systems.
| 17 |
Subject to raising sufficient additional capital, we plan to take a number of actions in the future to correct these material weaknesses including adding experienced accounting and financial personnel and retaining third-party consultants to review our internal controls and recommend improvements. We will need to take additional measures to fully mitigate these issues, and the measures we have taken, and expect to take, to improve our internal controls may not be sufficient to (1) address the issues identified, (2) ensure that our internal controls are effective or (3) ensure that the identified material weakness or other material weaknesses will not result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements. In addition, other material weaknesses may be identified in the future. If we are unable to correct deficiencies in internal controls in a timely manner, our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information accurately and within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC will be adversely affected. This failure could negatively affect the market price and trading liquidity of our common stock, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, subject us to civil and criminal investigations and penalties, and generally materially and adversely impact our business and financial condition.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to material weakness) in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we may be subject to ordinary routine litigation incidental to our normal business operations. We are not currently a party to any litigation the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flows or financial condition.
