P ETRO RIVER OIL CORP.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1.
Organization
 
Petro River Oil Corp. (the “ Company ”) is an independent energy company focused on the exploration and development of conventional oil and gas assets with low discovery and development costs, utilizing modern technology. The Company is currently focused on moving forward with drilling wells on several of its properties owned directly and indirectly through its interest in Horizon Energy Partners, LLC (“ Horizon Energy ”), as well as entering highly prospective plays with Horizon Energy and other industry-leading partners. Diversification over a number of projects, each with low initial capital expenditures and strong risk reward characteristics, reduces risk and provides cross-functional exposure to a number of attractive risk adjusted opportunities.
 
The Company’s core holdings are in the Mid-Continent Region in Oklahoma, including in Osage County and Kay County, Oklahoma. Following the acquisition of Horizon I Investments, LLC (“ Horizon Investments ”) in December 2015, the Company has additional exposure to a portfolio of domestic and international oil and gas assets consisting of highly prospective conventional plays diversified across project type, geographic location and risk profile, as well as access to a broad network of industry leaders from Horizon Investment’s interest in Horizon Energy. Horizon Energy is an oil and gas exploration and development company owned and managed by former senior oil and gas executives. It has a portfolio of domestic and international assets. Each of the assets in the Horizon Energy portfolio is characterized by low initial capital expenditure requirements and strong risk reward characteristics.
 
The Company’s prospects in Oklahoma are owned directly by the Company and indirectly through Spyglass Energy Group, LLC (“ Spyglass ”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Bandolier Energy, LLC (“ Bandolier ”). As of January 31, 2018, Bandolier became wholly-owned by the Company. Bandolier has a 75% working interest in an 87,754-acre concession in Osage County, Oklahoma. The remaining 25% working interest is held by the operator, Performance Energy, LLC. As discussed below in Recent Developments, on January 31, 2019, Bandolier entered into Assignment of Net Profit Interest agreements (the “ Assignment Agreements ”), pursuant to which Bandolier assigned and transferred a 75% interest in profits in certain planned wells to investors.
  
Effective September 24, 2018, the Company acquired a 66.67% membership interest in LBE Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ LBE Partners ”), from ICO Liquidating Trust, LLC in exchange for 300,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. LBE Partners has varying working interests in multiple oil and gas producing wells located in Texas. The Company currently anticipates that this acquisition will provide additional positive cashflow to the Company and increase its oil and gas asset portfolio.
 
The execution of the Company’s business plan is dependent on obtaining necessary working capital. While no assurances can be given, in the event management is able to obtain additional working capital, the Company plans to continue drilling additional wells on its existing concessions, and to acquire additional high-quality oil and gas properties, primarily proved producing, and proved undeveloped reserves. The Company also intends to explore low-risk development drilling and work-over opportunities. Management is also exploring farm-in and joint venture opportunities for the Company’s oil and gas assets.
 
Recent Developments
 
Horizon Subscription Agreement
 
On February 25, 2019, Company executed a Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which the Company purchased 145.454 membership units (approximately 14.6%) of Horizon Energy Acquisition, LLC (“ Horizon ”), a recently formed company focused on oil and gas exploration activities, for $400,000 (the “ Acquisition of Interest ”). In connection with Acquisition of Interest, the Company also executed the Limited Liability Company Agreement for Horizon, which provides the Company with the right to appoint one Manager to Horizon’s three-member Board of Managers. The Company appointed Mr. Cohen, the Company’s Executive Chairman, to the Board of Managers. Mr. Cohen purchased 36.363 membership units of Horizon in a separate transaction.
 
Creation of a New Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
 
On January 31, 2019, the Company filed the Certificate of Designations of Preferences and Rights of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “ Series A COD ”) with the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware – Division of Corporations, designating 500,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred, par value $0.00001 per share (“ Series A Preferred ”), and each share with a stated value of $20.00 per share (the “ Stated Value ”). Shares of Series A Preferred  are not entitled to dividends unless the Company elects to pay dividends to holders of its common stock.  Shares of Series A Preferred rank senior to the Company’s common stock and Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock.
 
 
 
Holders of Series A Preferred have the right to vote, subject to a 9.999% voting limitation (which does not apply to Scot Cohen), on an as-converted basis with the holders of the Company’s common stock on any matter presented to the Company’s stockholders for their action or consideration; provided, however, that so long as shares of Series A Preferred remain outstanding, the Company may not, without first obtaining the affirmative consent of a majority of the shares of Series A Preferred outstanding, voting as a separate class, take the following actions: (i) alter or change adversely the power, preferences and rights provided to the holders of the Series A Preferred under the Series A COD, (ii) authorize or create a class of stock that is senior to the Series A Preferred, (iii) amend its Certificate of Incorporation so as to adversely affect any rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred, (iv) increase the number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred, or (v) enter into any agreements with respect to the foregoing.
 
Each share of Series A Preferred has a liquidation preference equal to the Stated Value plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. Each share of Series A Preferred is convertible into that number of shares of the Company’s common stock (“ Conversion Shares ”) equal to the Stated Value, divided by $0.40 per share (the “ Conversion Price ”), which conversion rate is subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Series A COD; provided, however, that holders of the Series A Preferred may not convert their shares of Series A Preferred in the event that such conversion would result in such holder’s ownership exceeding 4.999% of the Company’s outstanding common stock (the “ Ownership Limitation ”), which Ownership Limitation may be increased up to 9.999% at the sole election of the holder (the “ Maximum Percentage ”); provided, however, that the Ownership Limitation and Maximum Percentage do not apply to Mr. Cohen. Holders of Series A Preferred may elect to convert shares of Series C Preferred into Conversion Shares at any time.
 
Series A Financing
 
On January 31, 2019 (the “ Closing Date ”), the Company sold and issued an aggregate of 178,101 units of its securities, for an aggregate purchase price of $3,562,015, to certain accredited investors (the “ New Investors ”) pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (“ SPA ”) and to certain debtholders (the “ Debt Holders ”) pursuant to Debt Conversion Agreements (the “ Debt Conversion Agreements ”) (the “ Offering ”). The sale of the units resulted in net cash proceeds of approximately $2.7 million. The units sold and issued in the Offering consisted of an aggregate of (i) 178,101 shares of the Company’s newly created Series A Preferred shares, convertible into 8,905,037 shares of the Company’s common stock, and (ii) five-year warrants to purchase 8,905,037 shares of Company’s common stock, at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. Pursuant to the Debt Conversion Agreements, the Debt Holders, consisting of Mr. Cohen and Fortis Oil & Gas (“ Fortis ”), agreed to convert all outstanding debt owed to the Debt Holders, amounting to $300,000 and $321,836, respectively, into units issued pursuant to the SPA. In addition to the conversion of outstanding debt, the Company and the Debt Holders also agreed to convert all accrued interest totaling $18,853 and $62,523, respectively.
 
The Offering resulted in net cash proceeds to the Company of approximately $2.7 million, which net proceeds do not include the amount of debt converted into units by the Debt Holders. The Company currently intends to use the net proceeds to fund the drilling of ten additional development and exploration wells in its Osage County concession (the “ New Drilling Program ”), and a large exploration venture in the North Sea, United Kingdom with Horizon Energy Partners, LLC.
 
In connection with the Offering, on January 31, 2019 Bandolier Energy, LLC (“ Bandolier ”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into Assignment of Net Profit Interest agreements (the “ Assignment Agreements ”) with each of the New Investors and Debt Holders, pursuant to which (i) Bandolier assigned and transferred to the New Investors and Debt Holders a 75% interest in profits, if any, derived from the ten new wells the Company intends to drill pursuant to the New Drilling Program, payments of which shall be made to the New Investors and Debt Holders, pro rata, on a quarterly basis following the full completion of the New Drilling Program, and (ii) in the event the Company elects to drill additional wells on its Osage County concession in the next two years, the New Investors and Debt Holders shall have the right to participate in and fund the drilling and production of the next ten wells on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Assignment Agreements.
 
Senior Secured Debt Exchange
 
On January 31, 2019, the Company entered into agreements (the “ Secured Debt Conversion Agreements ”) with Petro Exploration Funding, LLC and Petro Exploration Funding II, LLC (together, the “ Secured Debt Holders ”), pursuant to which they agreed to convert approximately $2.3 million and $2.8 million, respectively, of outstanding senior secured debt (including accrued and unpaid interest) (the “ Senior Secured Debt ”) owed under the terms of their respective Senior Secured Promissory Notes into 116,503 and 140,799 shares of the Company’s newly created Series A Preferred, respectively (the “ Senior Secured Debt Exchange ”). As a result of the Senior Secured Debt Exchange, all indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations arising under the respective Senior Secured Promissory Notes were cancelled and deemed satisfied in full.
 
 
 
As additional consideration for the conversion of the Senior Secured Debt, the Company agreed to (i) reduce the exercise price of warrants issued to the Secured Debt Holders on June 15, 2017 and November 6, 2017 from $2.38 and $2.00, respectively, to $0.50 per share of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such warrants, and (ii) to extend the expiration date of such warrants to five years from the Closing Date.
 
Acquisition of Membership Interest in LBE Partners, LLC
 
On October 2, 2018, the Company, ICO Liquidating Trust, LLC (“ ICO ”) and LBE Partners, which owns various working interests in several oil and gas wells located in the Hardin oil field in Liberty, Texas, entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “ LBE Purchase Agreement ”), effective September 24, 2018, pursuant to which the Company purchased a 66.67% membership interest in LBE Partners from ICO in exchange for 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Both ICO and LBE Partners are managed by Scot Cohen, the Company’s Executive Chairman.
 
The Company recorded the purchase of LBE Partners using the acquisition method of accounting as specified in ASC 805 Business Combinations. ” This method of accounting requires the acquirer to record the net assets and liabilities acquired at the historical cost of LBE Partners because the Company determined that this acquisition was a related party transaction.

Going Concern and Management’s Plan
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant operating losses since its inception. As of January 31, 2019, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $55.1 million, had working capital of approximately $1.1 million, and had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.1 million. As a result of the utilization of cash in its operating activities, and the development of its assets, the Company has incurred losses since it commenced operations. The Company’s primary source of operating funds since inception has been debt and equity financings. In addition, the Company has a limited operating history prior to its acquisition of Bandolier. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the twelve months following the issuance of these financial statements.
 
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Management is focusing on specific target acquisitions and investments, limiting operating expenses, and exploring farm-in and joint venture opportunities for the Company’s oil and gas assets. No assurances can be given that management will be successful. In addition, Management intends to raise additional capital through debt and equity instruments in order to execute its business, operating and development plans. Management can provide no assurances that the Company will be successful in its capital raising efforts. In order to conserve capital, from time to time, management may defer certain development activity.
 
3.
Basis of Preparation
 
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“ U.S. GAAP ”) and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Non–controlling interest represents the minority equity investment in the Company’s subsidiaries, plus the minority investors’ share of the net operating results and other components of equity relating to the non–controlling interest.
 
These unaudited consolidated financial statements include the Company and the following subsidiaries:
 
Bandolier Energy, LLC; Horizon I Investments, LLC; and MegaWest Energy USA Corp. and MegaWest Energy USA Corp.’s wholly owned subsidiaries: 
 
MegaWest Energy Texas Corp.
MegaWest Energy Kentucky Corp.
MegaWest Energy Missouri Corp.
 
As a result of the acquisition of membership interest in the Osage County Concession in November 2017, Bandolier is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company consolidates 100% of the financial information of Bandolier. Bandolier operates the Company’s Oklahoma oil and gas properties.
 
As a result of the acquisition of a 66.67% membership interest in LBE Partners effective on September 24, 2018, LBE Partners is now a subsidiary of the Company, and the Company consolidates the financial information of LBE Partners with a non-controlling interest in the remaining 33.33% membership interest. LBE Partners has varying working interest in multiple oil fields located in Texas.
 
Also contained in the unaudited consolidated financial statements for the periods ended January 31, 2018 and April 30, 2018 is the financial information of MegaWest, which prior to January 31, 2018 was 58.51% owned by the Company. The unaudited consolidated financial statements for the nine months ended January 31, 2018 include the results of operations of MegaWest; however, the assets and liabilities were written off in the year ended April 30, 2018.
 
 
 
The unaudited consolidated financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring items, which in the opinion of management are necessary to fairly state the financial position of the Company and the results of its operations for the periods presented. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2018, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “ SEC ”) on July 30, 2018. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read or have access to the audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. Accordingly, footnote disclosure, which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2018, has been omitted. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending April 30, 2019.

Significant Accounting Policies
 
 (a)
Use of Estimates:
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
The Company’s financial statements are based on a number of significant estimates, including oil and natural gas reserve quantities, which are the basis for the calculation of depreciation, depletion and impairment of oil and natural gas properties, and timing and costs associated with its asset retirement obligations, as well as those related to the fair value of stock options, stock warrants and stock issued for services. Although management believes that its estimates and assumptions used in preparation of the financial statements are appropriate, actual results could differ from those estimates. 
 
 (b)
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
 
Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid monetary instruments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash deposits. The Company maintains its cash in institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“ FDIC ”). At times, the Company’s cash and cash equivalent balances may be uninsured or in amounts that exceed the FDIC insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any loses on such accounts. As of January 31, 2019, approximately $1,725,000 exceed the FDIC insurance limits.
 
 (c)
Receivables:
 
Receivables that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future are reported in the balance sheet at outstanding principal adjusted for any charge-offs and the allowance for doubtful accounts. Losses from uncollectible receivables are accrued when both of the following conditions are met: (a) information available before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued indicates that it is probable that an asset has been impaired at the date of the financial statements, and (b) the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These conditions may be considered in relation to individual receivables or in relation to groups of similar types of receivables. If the conditions are met, an accrual shall be made even though the particular receivables that are uncollectible may not be identifiable. The Company reviews each receivable individually for collectability and performs on-going credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customer’s current credit worthiness, as determined by the review of their current credit information, and determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and general economic conditions that may affect a client’s ability to pay. Bad debt expense is included in general and administrative expenses, if any.
 
Credit losses for receivables (uncollectible receivables), which may be for all or part of a particular receivable, shall be deducted from the allowance. The related receivable balance shall be charged off in the period in which the receivables are deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously charged off shall be recorded when received. The Company charges off its account receivables against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
 
The allowance for doubtful accounts at January 31, 2019 and April 30, 2018 was $0.
 
 
 
 (d)
Oil and Gas Operations:
 
Oil and Gas Properties : The Company uses the full-cost method of accounting for its exploration and development activities. Under this method of accounting, the costs of both successful and unsuccessful exploration and development activities are capitalized as oil and gas property and equipment. Proceeds from the sale or disposition of oil and gas properties are accounted for as a reduction to capitalized costs unless the gain or loss would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and natural gas attributable to a country, in which case a gain or loss would be recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. All of the Company’s oil and gas properties are located within the continental United States, its sole cost center.
 
Oil and gas properties may include costs that are excluded from costs being depleted. Oil and gas costs excluded represent investments in unproved properties and major development projects in which the Company owns a direct interest. These unproved property costs include non-producing leasehold, geological and geophysical costs associated with leasehold or drilling interests and in process exploration drilling costs. All costs excluded are reviewed at least annually to determine if impairment has occurred.
 
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate.
  
Proved Oil and Gas Reserves : Proved oil and gas reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. All of the Company’s oil and gas properties with proved reserves were impaired to the salvage value prior to the Company’s acquisition of its interest in Bandolier. The price used to establish economic viability is the average price during the 12-month period preceding the end of the entity’s fiscal year and calculated as the un-weighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within such 12-month period.
 
Depletion, Depreciation and Amortization:  Depletion, depreciation and amortization is provided using the unit-of-production method based upon estimates of proved oil and gas reserves with oil and gas production being converted to a common unit of measure based upon their relative energy content. Investments in unproved properties and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment is deducted from the capitalized costs to be amortized. Once the assessment of unproved properties is complete and when major development projects are evaluated, the costs previously excluded from amortization are transferred to the full cost pool and amortization begins. The amortizable base includes estimated future development costs and, where significant, dismantlement, restoration and abandonment costs, net of estimated salvage value. 
 
In arriving at rates under the unit-of-production method, the quantities of recoverable oil and natural gas reserves are established based on estimates made by the Company’s geologists and engineers, which require significant judgment, as does the projection of future production volumes and levels of future costs, including future development costs. In addition, considerable judgment is necessary in determining when unproved properties become impaired and in determining the existence of proved reserves once a well has been drilled. All of these judgments may have significant impact on the calculation of depletion expenses. There have been no material changes in the methodology used by the Company in calculating depletion, depreciation and amortization of oil and gas properties under the full cost method during the nine months ended January 31, 2019 and 2018.  
 
 (e)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
 
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ Paragraph 820-10-35-37 ”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in U.S. GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
 
Level 1      Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level 2      Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
Level 3      Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.
  
 
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
 
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
 
The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.
 
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
 
 (f)
Preferred Stock:
 
The Company applies the accounting standards for distinguishing liabilities from equity under U.S. GAAP when determining the classification and measurement of its preferred stock. Preferred shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable preferred shares (including preferred shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, preferred shares are classified as permanent equity.
 
 (g)
Derivative Liabilities:
  
The Company evaluates its options, warrants, convertible notes, or other contracts, if any, to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with paragraph 815-10-05-4 and Section 815-40-25 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The result of this accounting treatment is that the fair value of the embedded derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as either an asset or a liability. The change in fair value is recorded in the consolidated statement of operations as other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or cancellation of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the date of conversion, exercise or cancellation and then the related fair value is reclassified to equity.
 
In circumstances where the embedded conversion option in a convertible instrument is required to be bifurcated and there are also other embedded derivative instruments in the convertible instrument that are required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument.
 
The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification are reclassified to liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date. Derivative instrument liabilities will be classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument is expected within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
 
The Company adopted Section 815-40-15 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ Section 815-40-15 ”)   to determine whether an instrument (or an embedded feature) is indexed to the Company’s own stock.  Section 815-40-15 provides that an entity should use a two-step approach to evaluate whether an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) is indexed to its own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions.
 
The Company utilizes a binomial option pricing model to compute the fair value of the derivative liability and to mark to market the fair value of the derivative at each balance sheet date. The Company records the change in the fair value of the derivative as other income or expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
 
The Company had derivative liabilities of $4,130,451 and $0 as of January 31, 2019 and April 30, 2018, respectively.
 
 
 
 (h)
Revenue Recognition:
 
ASU 2014-09, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ,” supersedes the revenue recognition requirements and industry-specific guidance under Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) . Topic 606 requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted Topic 606 on May 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method applied to contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Under the modified retrospective method, prior period financial positions and results will not be adjusted. The cumulative effect adjustment recognized in the opening balances included no significant changes as a result of this adoption. Although the Company does not expect 2018 net earnings to be materially impacted by revenue recognition timing changes, Topic 606 requires certain changes to the presentation of revenue and related expense beginning May 1, 2018. Refer to Note 10 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers for additional information.
 
The Company’s revenue is comprised of revenue from exploration and production activities as well as royalty revenue related to royalty interest agreement executed in February 2018. The Company’s oil is sold primarily to marketers, gatherers, and refiners. Natural gas is sold primarily to interstate and intrastate natural-gas pipelines, direct end-users, industrial users, local distribution companies, and natural-gas marketers. NGLs are sold primarily to direct end-users, refiners, and marketers. Payment is generally received from the customer in the month following delivery.
 
Contracts with customers have varying terms, including spot sales or month-to-month contracts, contracts with a finite term, and life-of-field contracts where all production from a well or group of wells is sold to one or more customers. The Company recognizes sales revenue for oil, natural gas, and NGLs based on the amount of each product sold to a customer when control transfers to the customer. Generally, control transfers at the time of delivery to the customer at a pipeline interconnect, the tailgate of a processing facility, or as a tanker lifting is completed. Revenue is measured based on the contract price, which may be index-based or fixed, and may include adjustments for market differentials and downstream costs incurred by the customer, including gathering, transportation, and fuel costs.
 
Revenue is recognized for the sale of the Company’s net share of production volumes. Sales on behalf of other working interest owners and royalty interest owners are not recognized as revenue.
  
 (i)
Stock-Based Compensation:
 
Generally, all forms of stock-based compensation, including stock option grants, warrants, and restricted stock grants are measured at their fair value utilizing an option pricing model on the award’s grant date, based on the estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest.
 
Under fair value recognition provisions, the Company recognizes equity–based compensation net of an estimated forfeiture rate and recognizes compensation cost only for those shares expected to vest over the requisite service period of the award.
 
The fair value of an option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black–Scholes option valuation model. The Black–Scholes option valuation model requires the development of assumptions that are input into the model. These assumptions are the expected stock volatility, the risk–free interest rate, the option’s expected life, the dividend yield on the underlying stock and the expected forfeiture rate. Expected volatility is calculated based on the historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over the expected option life and other appropriate factors. Risk–free interest rates are calculated based on continuously compounded risk–free rates for the appropriate term. The dividend yield is assumed to be zero, as the Company has never paid or declared any cash dividends on its common stock and does not intend to pay dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable future. The expected forfeiture rate is estimated based on historical experience.
 
Determining the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair value of equity–based payment awards requires the input of the subjective assumptions described above. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of equity–based payment awards represent management’s best estimates, which involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. As a result, if factors change and the Company uses different assumptions, the equity–based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and recognize expense only for those shares expected to vest. If the actual forfeiture rate is materially different from the Company’s estimate, the equity–based compensation expense could be significantly different from what the Company has recorded in the current period.
 
 
 
The Company determines the fair value of the stock–based payments to non-employees as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. If the fair value of the equity instruments issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of either (1) the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached, or (2) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.
 
The expense resulting from stock-based compensation is recorded as general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations, depending on the nature of the services provided.
 
   (j)
Income Taxes:
 
Income Tax Provision
 
The Company utilizes the asset and liability method in accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards and for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets unless it is more likely than not that the value of such assets will be realized.
 
Uncertain Tax Positions
 
The Company evaluates uncertain tax positions to recognize a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Those tax positions failing to qualify for initial recognition are recognized in the first interim period in which they meet the more likely than not standard or are resolved through negotiation or litigation with the taxing authority, or upon expiration of the statute of limitations. De-recognition of a tax position that was previously recognized occurs when an entity subsequently determines that a tax position no longer meets the more likely than not threshold of being sustained.
 
Interpretation of taxation rules relating to net operating loss utilization in real estate transactions give rise to uncertain positions. In connection with the uncertain tax position, there were no interest or penalties recorded as the position is expected but the tax returns are not yet due.
 
The Company is subject to ongoing tax exposures, examinations and assessments in various jurisdictions. Accordingly, the Company may incur additional tax expense based upon the outcomes of such matters. In addition, when applicable, the Company will adjust tax expense to reflect the Company’s ongoing assessments of such matters, which require judgment and can materially increase or decrease its effective rate as well as impact operating results.
 
The number of years with open tax audits varies depending on the tax jurisdiction. The Company’s major taxing jurisdictions include the United States (including applicable states).
 
 
 
 
 (k)
Per Share Amounts:
 
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. For the nine months ended January 31, 2019 and 2018, potentially dilutive securities were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would be anti-dilutive.
 
The Company had the following common stock equivalents at January 31, 2019 and 2018:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:
 
In February 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,  Leases , which aims to make leasing activities more transparent and comparable and requires substantially all leases be recognized by lessees on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability, including leases currently accounted for as operating leases. This ASU is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt ASU 2016-02 beginning May 1, 2019   and is in the process of assessing the impact that this new guidance is expected to have on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.
 
In September 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,  Financial Instruments - Credit Losses . ASU 2016-13 was issued to provide more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and changes the loss impairment methodology. ASU 2016-13 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 using a modified retrospective adoption method. A prospective transition approach is required for debt securities for which an other-than-temporary impairment had been recognized before the effective date. The Company is currently assessing the impact this accounting standard will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
 
The Company does not expect the adoption of any other recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Asset Retirement Obligations
 
The total future asset retirement obligations were estimated based on the Company’s ownership interest in all wells and facilities, the estimated legal obligations required to retire, dismantle, abandon and reclaim the wells and facilities and the estimated timing of such payments.

Contingency and Contractual Obligations
  
Pending Litigation
 
(a) In January 2010, the Company experienced a flood in its Calgary office premises as a result of a broken water pipe. There was significant damage to the premises, rendering them unusable until the landlord had completed remediation. Pursuant to the lease contract, the Company asserted that rent should be abated during the remediation process and accordingly, the Company did not pay any rent after December 2009. During the remediation process, the Company engaged an independent environmental testing company to test for air quality and for the existence of other potentially hazardous conditions. The testing revealed the existence of potentially hazardous mold and the consultant provided specific written instructions for the effective remediation of the premises. During the remediation process, the landlord did not follow the consultant’s instructions and correct the potentially hazardous mold situation, and subsequently in June 2010 gave notice and declared the premises to be ready for occupancy. The Company re-engaged the consultant to re-test the premises and the testing results again revealed the presence of potentially hazardous mold. The Company determined that the premises were not fit for re-occupancy and considered the landlord to be in default of the lease. The landlord subsequently terminated the lease.
 
On January 30, 2014, the landlord filed a Statement of Claim against the Company for rental arrears in the amount aggregating CAD $759,000 (approximately USD $574,000 as of January 31, 2019). The Company filed a defense and on October 20, 2014, it filed a summary judgment application stating that the landlord’s claim is barred, as it was commenced outside the two-year statute of limitation period under the Alberta Limitations Act. The landlord subsequently filed a cross-application to amend its Statement of Claim to add a claim for loss of prospective rent in an amount of CAD $665,000 (approximately USD $503,000 as of January 31, 2019). The applications were heard on June 25, 2015  and the court allowed both the Company’s summary judgment application and the landlord’s amendment application. Both of these orders were appealed though two levels of the Alberta courts and the appeals were dismissed at both levels. On October 4, 2018, the Company settled the dispute with the landlord in exchange for the issuance of 68,807 shares of Company common stock, satisfying the $75,000 liability related to the lease.
 
(b) In September 2013, the Company was notified by the Railroad Commission of Texas (the “ Railroad Commission ”) that the Company was not in compliance with regulations promulgated by the Railroad Commission. The Company was therefore deemed to have lost its corporate privileges within the State of Texas and as a result, all wells within the state would have to be plugged. The Railroad Commission therefore collected $25,000 from the Company, which was originally deposited with the Railroad Commission, to cover a portion of the estimated costs of $88,960 to plug the wells. In addition to the above, the Railroad Commission also reserved its right to separately seek any remedies against the Company resulting from its noncompliance.
 
 
 
(c) On August 11, 2014, Martha Donelson and John Friend amended their complaint in an existing lawsuit by filing a class action complaint styled:  Martha Donelson and John Friend, et al. v. United States of America, Department of the Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs and Devon Energy Production, LP, et al.,  Case No. 14-CV-316-JHP-TLW, United States District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma (the “ Proceeding ”). The plaintiffs added as defendants twenty-seven (27) specifically named operators, including Spyglass, as well as all Osage County lessees and operators who have obtained a concession agreement, lease or drilling permit approved by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (“ BIA ”) in Osage County allegedly in violation of National Environmental Policy Act (“ NEPA ”). Plaintiffs seek a declaratory judgment that the BIA improperly approved oil and gas leases, concession agreements and drilling permits prior to August 12, 2014, without satisfying the BIA’s obligations under federal regulations or NEPA, and seek a determination that such oil and gas leases, concession agreements and drilling permits are void  ab initio . Plaintiffs are seeking damages against the defendants for alleged nuisance, trespass, negligence and unjust enrichment. The potential consequences of such complaint could jeopardize the corresponding leases.
  
On October 7, 2014, Spyglass, along with other defendants, filed a Motion to Dismiss the August 11, 2014 Amended Complaint on various procedural and legal grounds. Following the significant briefing, the Court, on March 31, 2016, granted the Motion to Dismiss as to all defendants and entered a judgment in favor of the defendants against the plaintiffs. On April 14, 2016, Spyglass with the other defendants, filed a Motion seeking its attorneys’ fees and costs. The motion remains pending. On April 28, 2016, the Plaintiffs filed three motions: a Motion to Amend or Alter the Judgment; a Motion to Amend the Complaint; and a Motion to Vacate Order. On November 23, 2016, the Court denied all three of Plaintiffs’ motions. On December 6, 2016, the Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal to the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals. That appeal is pending as of the filing date of these financial statements. There is no specific timeline by which the Court of Appeals must render a ruling. Spyglass intends to continue to vigorously defend its interest in this matter. 
 
(d) MegaWest Energy Missouri Corp. (“ MegaWest Missouri ”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is involved in two cases related to oil leases in West Central, Missouri. The first case ( James Long and Jodeane Long v. MegaWest Energy Missouri and Petro River Oil Corp. , case number 13B4-CV00019)  is a case for unlawful detainer, pursuant to which the plaintiffs contend that MegaWest Missouri oil and gas lease has expired and MegaWest Missouri is unlawfully possessing the plaintiffs’ real property by asserting that the leases remain in effect. The case was originally filed in Vernon County, Missouri on September 20, 2013. MegaWest Missouri filed an Answer and Counterclaims on November 26, 2013 and the plaintiffs filed a motion to dismiss the counterclaims. MegaWest Missouri filed a motion for Change of Judge and Change of Venue and the case was transferred to Barton County. The court granted the motion to dismiss the counterclaims on February 3, 2014.  As to the other allegations in the complaint, the matter is still pending.
 
The Company is from time to time involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. It does not believe that any of these claims and proceedings against it is likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

Business Overview
 
Petro River Oil Corp. is an independent energy company focused on the exploration and development of conventional oil and gas assets with low discovery and development costs, utilizing modern technology. The Company is currently focused on moving forward with drilling wells on several of its properties owned directly and indirectly through its interest in Horizon Energy Partners, LLC (“ Horizon Energy ”), as well as entering highly prospective plays with Horizon Energy and other industry-leading partners. Diversification over a number of projects, each with low initial capital expenditures and strong risk reward characteristics, reduces risk and provides cross-functional exposure to a number of attractive risk adjusted opportunities.
 
The Company’s core holdings are in the Mid-Continent Region in Oklahoma, including in Osage County and Kay County, Oklahoma. Following the acquisition of Horizon I Investments, LLC (“ Horizon Investments ”), the Company has additional exposure to a portfolio of domestic and international oil and gas assets consisting of highly prospective conventional plays diversified across project type, geographic location and risk profile, as well as access to a broad network of industry leaders from Horizon Investment’s interest in Horizon Energy. Horizon Energy is an oil and gas exploration and development company owned and managed by former senior oil and gas executives. It has a portfolio of domestic and international assets. Each of the assets in the Horizon Energy portfolio is characterized by low initial capital expenditure requirements and strong risk reward characteristics.
 
 
 
The Company’s prospects in Oklahoma are owned directly by the Company and indirectly through Spyglass Energy Group, LLC (“ Spyglass ”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Bandolier Energy, LLC (“ Bandolier ”). As of January 31, 2018, Bandolier became wholly-owned by the Company. Bandolier has a 75% working interest in an 87,754-acre concession in Osage County, Oklahoma. The remaining 25% working interest is held by the operator, Performance Energy, LLC. As discussed below, on January 31, 2019 Bandolier entered into Assignment of Net Profit Interest agreements (the “ Assignment Agreements ”), pursuant to which Bandolier assigned and transferred a 75% interest in profits in certain planned wells to investors.
  
Effective September 24, 2018, the Company acquired a 66.67% membership interest in LBE Partners, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“ LBE Partners ”), from ICO Liquidating Trust, LLC in exchange for 300,000 restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock. LBE Partners has varying working interests in multiple oil and gas producing wells located in Texas. The Company currently anticipates that this acquisition will provide additional positive cashflow to the Company and increase its oil and gas asset portfolio.
 
The execution of the Company’s business plan is dependent on obtaining necessary working capital. While no assurances can be given, in the event management is able to obtain additional working capital, the Company plans to continue drilling additional wells on its existing concessions, and to acquire additional high-quality oil and gas properties, primarily proved producing, and proved undeveloped reserves. The Company also intends to explore low-risk development drilling and work-over opportunities. Management is also exploring farm-in and joint venture opportunities for the Company’s oil and gas assets.
 
Recent Developments
 
Horizon Subscription Agreement
 
On February 25, 2019, Company executed a Subscription Agreement, pursuant to which the Company purchased 145.454 membership units, or approximately 14.6% ownership, of Horizon Energy Acquisition, LLC (“ Horizon ”), a recently formed company focused on oil and gas exploration activities, for $400,000 (the “ Acquisition of Interest ”). In connection with Acquisition of Interest, the Company also executed the Limited Liability Company Agreement for Horizon, which provides the Company with the right to appoint one Manager to Horizon’s three-member Board of Managers. The Company appointed Mr. Cohen, the Company’s Executive Chairman, to the Board of Managers. Mr. Cohen purchased 36.363 membership units in Horizon in a separate transaction.
 
Creation of a New Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
 
On January 31, 2019, the Company filed the Certificate of Designations of Preferences and Rights of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “ Series A COD ”) with the Secretary of State for the State of Delaware – Division of Corporations, designating 500,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock as Series A Convertible Preferred, par value $0.00001 per share (“ Series A Preferred ”), and each share with a stated value of $20.00 per share (the “ Stated Value ”). Shares of Series A Preferred  are not entitled to dividends unless the Company elects to pay dividends to holders of its Common Stock.  Shares of Series A Preferred rank senior to the Company’s Common Stock and Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock.
 
Holders of Series A Preferred have the right to vote, subject to a 9.999% voting limitation (which does not apply to Scot Cohen), on an as-converted basis with the holders of the Company’s Common Stock on any matter presented to the Company’s stockholders for their action or consideration;  provided, however , that so long as shares of Series A Preferred remain outstanding, the Company may not, without first obtaining the affirmative consent of a majority of the shares of Series A Preferred outstanding, voting as a separate class, take the following actions: (i) alter or change adversely the power, preferences and rights provided to the holders of the Series A Preferred under the Series A COD, (ii) authorize or create a class of stock that is senior to the Series A Preferred, (iii) amend its Certificate of Incorporation so as to adversely affect any rights of the holders of the Series A Preferred, (iv) increase the number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred, or (v) enter into any agreements with respect to the foregoing.
 
Each share of Series A Preferred has a liquidation preference equal to the Stated Value plus all accrued and unpaid dividends. Each share of Series A Preferred is convertible into that number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock (“ Conversion Shares ”) equal to the Stated Value, divided by $0.40 per share (the “ Conversion Price ”), which conversion rate is subject to adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Series A COD;  provided, however , that holders of the Series A Preferred may not convert their shares of Series A Preferred in the even that such conversion would result in such holder’s ownership exceeding 4.999% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock (the “ Ownership Limitation ”), which Ownership Limitation may be increased up to 9.999% at the sole election of the holder (the “ Maximum Percentage ”);  provided, however , that the Ownership Limitation and Maximum Percentage do not apply to Mr. Cohen. Holders of Series A Preferred may elect to convert shares of Series C Preferred into Conversion Shares at any time.
 
 
 
Pursuant to the original Series A COD, holders of the Series A Preferred may also require the Company to redeem all or any portion of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred in the event of the occurrence of (i) a Triggering Event, as such term is defined in the Series A COD, at a price equal to the greater of (a) 115% of the Stated Value plus all accrued by unpaid dividends (the “ Event Equity Value ”) or (b) the Event Equity Value of the shares of Common Stock issuable as Conversion Shares; or (ii) a Change of Control, as such term is defined in the Series A COD, at a price equal to the greater of (a) the Event Equity Value or (b) the product of the Conversion Price and the VWAP of the Common Stock on the trading day immediately preceding the Change of Control. In addition, in the event of a Bankruptcy Event, as such term is defined in the Series A COD, the Company shall automatically be required to redeem all of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred and all such underling shares at price equal to the Event Equity Value.
 
On March 13, 2019, the Series A COD was amended and restated in order to (i) decrease the Event Equity value to 100% of the Stated Value plus all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon through the date of payment, and (ii) remove the right of holders of the Series A Preferred to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of such holders’ Series A Preferred in the event of a Change of Control. Except for the forgoing changes, all other terms of the original Series A COD were unaffected by the amendment and restatement.
 
Series A Financing
 
On January 31, 2019 (the “ Closing Date ”), the Company sold and issued an aggregate of 178,101 units (“ Units ”), for an aggregate purchase price of $3,562,014.95, to certain accredited investors (the “ New Investors ”) pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (“ SPA ”) and to certain debtholders (the “ Debt Holders ”) pursuant to Debt Conversion Agreements (the “ Debt Conversion Agreements ”) (the “ Offering ”). The sale of the Units resulted in net cash proceeds of approximately $2.7 million. The Units sold and issued in the Offering consisted of an aggregate of (i) 178,101 shares of the Company’s newly created Series A Preferred shares, convertible into 8,905,037 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, and (ii) five-year warrants to purchase 8,905,307 shares of Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. Pursuant to the Debt Conversion Agreement, the Debt Holders, consisting of Mr. Cohen and Fortis Oil & Gas, (“ Fortis ”) agreed to convert all outstanding debt owed to the Debt Holders, amounting to $300,000 and $321,836, respectively, into Units issued pursuant to the SPA. In addition to the conversion of outstanding debt, the Company and the Debt Holders also agreed to convert all accrued interest totaling $18,853 and $62,523, respectively.
 
The Offering resulted in net cash proceeds to the Company of approximately $2.7 million, which net proceeds do not include the amount of debt converted into Units by the Debt Holders. The Company currently intends to use the net proceeds to fund the drilling of ten additional development and exploration wells in its Osage County concession (the “ New Drilling Program ”), and a large exploration venture in the North Sea, United Kingdom with Horizon Energy Partners, LLC.
 
In connection with the Offering, on January 31, 2019 Bandolier Energy, LLC (“ Bandolier ”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into Assignment of Net Profit Interest agreements (the “ Assignment Agreements ”) with each of the New Investors and Debt Holders, pursuant to which (i) Bandolier assigned and transferred to the New Investors and Debt Holders a 75% interest in profits, if any, derived from the ten new wells the Company intends to drill pursuant to the New Drilling Program, payments of which shall be made to the New Investors and Debt Holders, pro rata, on a quarterly basis following the full completion of the New Drilling Program, and (ii) in the event the Company elects to drill additional wells on its Osage County concession in the next two years, the New Investors and Debt Holders shall have the right to participate in and fund the drilling and production of the next ten wells on the same terms and conditions set forth in the Assignment Agreements.
 
Senior Secured Debt Exchange
 
On January 31, 2019, the Company entered into agreements (the “ Secured Debt Conversion Agreements ”) with Petro Exploration Funding, LLC and Petro Exploration Funding II, LLC (together, the “ Secured Debt Holders ”), pursuant to which they agreed to convert approximately $2.3 million and $2.8 million, respectively, of outstanding senior secured debt (including accrued and unpaid interest) (the “ Senior Secured Debt ”) owed under the terms of their respective Senior Secured Promissory Notes into 116,374 and 140,130 shares of the Company’s newly created Series A Preferred, respectively (the “ Senior Secured Debt Exchange ”). As a result of the Senior Secured Debt Exchange, all indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations arising under the respective Senior Secured Promissory Notes were cancelled and deemed satisfied in full.
 
As additional consideration for the conversion of the Senior Secured Debt, the Company agreed to (i) reduce the exercise price of warrants issued to the Secured Debt Holders on June 15, 2017 and November 6, 2017 from $2.38 and $2.00, respectively, to $0.50 per share of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of such warrants, and (ii) to extend the expiration date of such warrants to five years from the Closing Date.
 
 
 
Acquisition of Membership Interest in LBE Partners, LLC
 
On October 2, 2018, the Company, ICO Liquidating Trust, LLC (“ ICO ”) and LBE Partners, which owns various working interests in several oil and gas wells located in the Hardin oil field in Liberty, Texas, entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “ LBE Purchase Agreement ”), effective September 24, 2018, pursuant to which the Company purchased a 66.67% membership interest in LBE Partners from ICO in exchange for 300,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Both ICO and LBE Partners are managed by Scot Cohen, the Company’s Executive Chairman.  
 
Recent Oil Discoveries
 
On July 24, 2018, the Company announced the successful drilling of the Arsaga 25-2 exploration well, located on its concession in Osage County, Oklahoma.
 
On May 22, 2018, the Company announced the discovery of a new oil field, the N. Blackland Field, in its concession in Osage County, Oklahoma, upon successfully testing of the 2-34 exploration well.
 
In May 2017, Bandolier discovered two new oil fields with the successful drilling of the W. Blackland 1-3 and S. Blackland 2-11 exploration wells. On December 15, 2017, the Company received permits from the Bureau of Indian Affairs to drill eight additional wells in the W. Blackland Field, which were successfully completed in April 2018. The Company’s W. Blackland concessions are currently producing, and, with the drilling of additional wells, the Company currently anticipates that its revenue will significantly increase throughout the remainder of the current fiscal year.
 
In addition to the Company’s current development plans, within its current 3-D seismic data, additional structures in Osage County have been identified. Assuming that it is able to obtain sufficient working capital, the Company currently plans to drill ten additional wells in calendar year 2019: seven in the N. Blackland Field, two in the Arsaga structure and one in the Section 13 structure. The Company anticipates financing the drilling of these wells using the cash flows from current production of its existing wells.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 4 to the annual consolidated financial statements for the years ended April 30, 2018 and 2017 on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on July 30, 2018 for the year ended April 30, 2018.
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements. These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of our assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses, to disclose contingent assets and liabilities on the date of the consolidated financial statements, and to disclose the reported amounts of revenues and expenses incurred during the financial reporting period. The most significant estimates and assumptions include the valuation of accounts receivable, and the useful lives and impairment of property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets, the valuation of deferred tax assets and inventories and the provision for income taxes. We continue to evaluate these estimates and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. We rely on these evaluations as the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from those estimates. Some of our accounting policies require higher degrees of judgment than others in their application. We believe critical accounting policies as disclosed in this Quarterly Report reflect the more significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements. We believe there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates.
  
The following critical accounting policies rely upon assumptions and estimates and were used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:
 
 
 
Oil and Gas Operations
 
The Company follows the full-cost method of accounting for oil and gas operations, whereby all costs related to exploration and development of oil and gas reserves are capitalized. Under this method, the Company capitalizes all acquisition, exploration and development costs incurred for the purpose of finding oil and natural gas reserves, including salaries, benefits and other internal costs directly attributable to these activities. Costs associated with production and general corporate activities, however, are expensed in the period incurred. Costs are capitalized on a country-by-country basis. To date, there has only been one cost center, the United States.
 
The present value of estimated future net cash flows is computed by applying the average first-day-of-the-month prices during the previous twelve-month period of oil and natural gas to estimated future production of proved oil and natural gas reserves as of year-end less estimated future expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions. Prior to December 31, 2009, prices and costs used to calculate future net cash flows were those as of the end of the appropriate quarterly period.
 
Following the discovery of reserves and the commencement of production, the Company will compute depletion of oil and natural gas properties using the unit-of-production method based upon production and estimates of proved reserve quantities. Costs associated with unproved properties are excluded from the depletion calculation until it is determined whether or not proved reserves can be assigned to such properties. Unproved properties are assessed for impairment annually. Significant properties are assessed individually.
 
The Company assesses all items classified as unproved property on an annual basis for possible impairment. The Company assesses properties on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant. The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: land relinquishment; intent to drill; remaining lease term; geological and geophysical evaluations; drilling results and activity; the assignment of proved reserves; and the economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned. During any period in which these factors indicate impairment, the related exploration costs incurred are transferred to the full cost pool and are then subject to depletion and the ceiling limitations on development oil and natural gas expenditures.
 
Proceeds from the sale of oil and gas assets are applied against capitalized costs, with no gain or loss recognized, unless a sale would alter the rate of depletion and depreciation by 25% or more.
 
Significant changes in these factors could reduce our estimates of future net proceeds and accordingly could result in an impairment of our oil and gas assets. Management will perform annual assessments of the carrying amounts of its oil and gas assets as additional data from ongoing exploration activities becomes available.
 
Revenue Recognition 
 
ASU 2014-09, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) ,” supersedes the revenue recognition requirements and industry-specific guidance under Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) . Topic 606 requires an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company adopted Topic 606 on May 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method applied to contracts that were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Under the modified retrospective method, prior period financial positions and results will not be adjusted. The cumulative effect adjustment recognized in the opening balances included no significant changes as a result of this adoption. While the Company does not expect 2018 net earnings to be materially impacted by revenue recognition timing changes, Topic 606 requires certain changes to the presentation of revenues and related expenses beginning May 1, 2018. Refer to Note 10 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers for additional information.
 
The Company’s revenue is comprised revenue from exploration and production activities as well as royalty revenues related to a royalty interest agreement executed in February 2018. The Company’s oil is sold primarily to marketers, gatherers, and refiners. Natural gas is sold primarily to interstate and intrastate natural-gas pipelines, direct end-users, industrial users, local distribution companies, and natural-gas marketers. NGLs are sold primarily to direct end-users, refiners, and marketers. Payment is generally received from the customer in the month following delivery.
 
 
 
Contracts with customers have varying terms, including spot sales or month-to-month contracts, contracts with a finite term, and life-of-field contracts where all production from a well or group of wells is sold to one or more customers. The Company recognizes sales revenues for oil, natural gas, and NGLs based on the amount of each product sold to a customer when control transfers to the customer. Generally, control transfers at the time of delivery to the customer at a pipeline interconnect, the tailgate of a processing facility, or as a tanker lifting is completed. Revenue is measured based on the contract price, which may be index-based or fixed, and may include adjustments for market differentials and downstream costs incurred by the customer, including gathering, transportation, and fuel costs.
 
Revenues are recognized for the sale of the Company’s net share of production volumes. Sales on behalf of other working interest owners and royalty interest owners are not recognized as revenues.
  
Income Tax Provision
 
The Company utilizes the asset and liability method in accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards and for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the carrying amounts of deferred tax assets unless it is more likely than not that the value of such assets will be realized.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
 
In February 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-02,  Leases , which aims to make leasing activities more transparent and comparable and requires substantially all leases be recognized by lessees on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability, including leases currently accounted for as operating leases. This ASU is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt ASU 2016-02 beginning May 1, 2019   and is in the process of assessing the impact that this new guidance is expected to have on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.
 
In September 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13,  Financial Instruments - Credit Losses . ASU 2016-13 was issued to provide more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses on financial instruments and changes the loss impairment methodology. ASU 2016-13 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 using a modified retrospective adoption method. A prospective transition approach is required for debt securities for which an other-than-temporary impairment had been recognized before the effective date. The Company is currently assessing the impact this accounting standard will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
 
The Company does not expect the adoption of any other recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. 
 
 
 
Results of Operations
 
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended January 31, 2019 Compared to Three Months Ended January 31, 2018
 
Oil Sales
 
During the three months ended January 31, 2019, the Company recognized $324,115 in oil and gas sales, compared to $250,877 for the three months ended January 31, 2018. The overall increase in sales of $73,238 is primarily due to the commencement of production in Osage County, Oklahoma and the acquisition of LBE Partners.
 
We have listed below the total production volumes and total revenue net to the Company for the three months ended January 31, 2019 and 2018.

Royalty Revenue
 
In connection with the Purchase and Exchange Agreement dated February 14, 2018 between Petro River and Red Fork Resources ( Red Ford ), a subsidiary of Horizon Energy, Petro River conveyed to Red Fork its 13.75% interest in the Mountain View Project and received a 64.70% interest from Red Fork in a new project in Kay County. Petro River also retained a 2% royalty interest in the membership interest conveyed to Red Fork in the Mountain View Project. In relation to this agreement, the Company recognized $15,871 in revenue during the three months ended January 31, 2019.
 
Lease Operating Expense
 
During the three months ended January 31, 2019, lease operating expense was $144,721, compared to $12,445 for the three months ended January 31, 2018. The overall increase in lease operating expense was primarily attributable to increased activity in the Company’s drilling activity in Osage County, Oklahoma and the acquisition of LBE Partners.
  
Impairment of Oil and Gas Assets
 
The Company assesses all items classified as unproved property on an annual basis for possible impairment. The Company assesses properties on an individual basis or as a group if properties are individually insignificant. The assessment includes consideration of the following factors, among others: land relinquishment; intent to drill; remaining lease term; geological and geophysical evaluations; drilling results and activity; the assignment of proved reserves; and the economic viability of development if proved reserves are assigned. Significant changes in these factors could reduce our estimates of future net proceeds and accordingly could result in an impairment of our oil and gas assets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
At January 31, 2019, the Company had working capital of $1,139,923, consisting of $2,320,964 of current assets and $1,181,041 of current liabilities.
 
As a result of the utilization of cash in its operating activities, and the development of its assets, the Company has incurred losses since it commenced operations. In addition, the Company has a limited operating history. At January 31, 2019, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2.1 million. The Company’s primary source of operating funds since inception has been equity and note financings, as well as through the consummation of the Horizon Acquisition.
 
On January 31, 2019, the Company consummated the Series A Financing, pursuant to which the Company sold and issued an aggregate of 178,101 Units, for an aggregate purchase price of $3,562,015, to certain accredited investors pursuant to an SPA and to certain debtholders pursuant to Debt Conversion Agreements, resulting in net cash proceeds to the Company of approximately $2.7 million and the termination of the Cohen Loan Agreement and debt owed to Fortis. In addition, on January 31, 2019, the Company entered into the Secured Debt Conversion Agreements, pursuant to which Funding Corp. and Funding Corp. II converted all outstanding debt due to them under the June 2017 Secured Note and November 2017 Secured Note, together amounting to an aggregate of approximately $5.1 million, into shares of Series A Preferred. As a result, the Company increased its current assets and decreased its current liabilities significantly.
 
On June 18, 2018, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement with Scot Cohen (the “ Cohen Loan Agreement ”), the Company’s Executive Chairman, pursuant to which Mr. Cohen loaned the Company $300,000 at a 10% annual interest rate due September 30, 2018. On December 17, 2018, the maturity date of the Cohen Loan Agreement was extended to March 31, 2019. As noted above, the Cohen Loan Agreement was terminated on January 31, 2019 in exchange for the issuance of units, consisting of 15,000 share of Series A Preferred and warrants to purchase 750,000 shares of Company Common Stock sold and issued in the Series A Financing.
 
In June and November 2017, the Company consummated the Secured Note financings for an aggregate of $4.5 million, which Secured Notes accrued interest at a rate of 10% per annum and were scheduled to mature on June 13, 2020. On May 17, 2018, the parties executed an extension of the due date of the first interest payment due pursuant to each of the Secured Notes from June 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018. As consideration for the interest payment extension, the Company agreed to pay the holders an additional 10% of the interest due on June 1, 2018 on December 31, 2018. On December 17, 2018, the parties executed a second extension of the due date of the first interest payment due pursuant to each of the Secured Notes from December 31, 2018 to March 31, 2019. As a result of the Series A Financing discussed above, the outstanding balances of the Secured Notes were converted into shares of Series A Preferred.
 
The current level of working capital, along with results from operations, may be insufficient to maintain current operations as well as the planned added operations for the next 12 months. Management intends to raise additional capital through debt and equity instruments, if necessary, in order to execute its business and operating plans. Management can provide no assurances that the Company will be successful in any capital raising efforts. In order to conserve capital, from time to time, management may defer certain development activity.

ITEM 3.  Q UANTITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
Not applicable
 
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
A. Material Weaknesses
 
As discussed in Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018, we identified material weaknesses in the design and operation of our internal controls. The material weaknesses are due to the limited number of employees, which impacts our ability to conduct a thorough internal review, and the Company’s reliance on external accounting personnel to prepare financial statements.
  
To remediate the material weakness, the Company is developing a plan to design and implement the operation of our internal controls. Upon obtaining additional capital, the Company intends to hire additional accounting staff, and operations and administrative executives in the future to address its material weaknesses.
 
We will continue to monitor and assess our remediation initiatives to ensure that the aforementioned material weaknesses are remediated.
 
B. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. The Company’s management, with the participation of its principal executive and principal financial officers, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based upon that evaluation and solely due to the unremediated material weaknesses described above, the Company’s principal executive and financial officers have concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for the purpose for which they were designed as of the end of such period. As a result of this conclusion, the financial statements for the period covered by this report were prepared with particular attention to the unremediated material weaknesses previously disclosed. Accordingly, management believes that the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented, in accordance with U.S. GAAP, notwithstanding the unremediated weaknesses.
 
C. Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that was identified in connection with such evaluation that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
 
 
 
 
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
 
(a) In January 2010, the Company experienced a flood in its Calgary office premises as a result of a broken water pipe. There was significant damage to the premises, rendering them unusable until the landlord had completed remediation. Pursuant to the lease contract, the Company asserted that rent should be abated during the remediation process and accordingly, the Company did not pay any rent after December 2009. During the remediation process, the Company engaged an independent environmental testing company to test for air quality and for the existence of other potentially hazardous conditions. The testing revealed the existence of potentially hazardous mold and the consultant provided specific written instructions for the effective remediation of the premises. During the remediation process, the landlord did not follow the consultant’s instructions and correct the potentially hazardous mold situation, and subsequently in June 2010 gave notice and declared the premises to be ready for occupancy. The Company re-engaged the consultant to re-test the premises and the testing results again revealed the presence of potentially hazardous mold. The Company determined that the premises were not fit for re-occupancy and considered the landlord to be in default of the lease. The landlord subsequently terminated the lease.
 
On January 30, 2014, the landlord filed a Statement of Claim against the Company for rental arrears in the amount aggregating CAD $759,000 (approximately USD $574,000 as of January 31, 2019). The Company filed a defense and on October 20, 2014, it filed a summary judgment application stating that the landlord’s claim is barred, as it was commenced outside the two-year statute of limitation period under the Alberta Limitations Act. The landlord subsequently filed a cross-application to amend its Statement of Claim to add a claim for loss of prospective rent in an amount of CAD $665,000 (approximately USD $503,000 as of January 31, 2019). The applications were heard on June 25, 2015  and the court allowed both the Company’s summary judgment application and the landlord’s amendment application. Both of these orders were appealed though two levels of the Alberta courts and the appeals were dismissed at both levels. On October 4, 2018, the Company settled the dispute with the landlord in exchange for the issuance of 68,807 shares of Company Common Stock, satisfying the $75,000 liability related to the lease.
 
(b) In September 2013, the Company was notified by the Railroad Commission of Texas (the “ Railroad Commission ”) that the Company was not in compliance with regulations promulgated by the Railroad Commission. The Company was therefore deemed to have lost its corporate privileges within the State of Texas and as a result, all wells within the state would have to be plugged. The Railroad Commission therefore collected $25,000 from the Company, which was originally deposited with the Railroad Commission, to cover a portion of the estimated costs of $88,960 to plug the wells. In addition to the above, the Railroad Commission also reserved its right to separately seek any remedies against the Company resulting from its noncompliance.
 
(c) On August 11, 2014, Martha Donelson and John Friend amended their complaint in an existing lawsuit by filing a class action complaint styled:  Martha Donelson and John Friend, et al. v. United States of America, Department of the Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs and Devon Energy Production, LP, et al.,  Case No. 14-CV-316-JHP-TLW, United States District Court for the Northern District of Oklahoma (the “ Proceeding ”). The plaintiffs added as defendants twenty-seven (27) specifically named operators, including Spyglass, as well as all Osage County lessees and operators who have obtained a concession agreement, lease or drilling permit approved by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (“ BIA ”) in Osage County allegedly in violation of National Environmental Policy Act (“ NEPA ”). Plaintiffs seek a declaratory judgment that the BIA improperly approved oil and gas leases, concession agreements and drilling permits prior to August 12, 2014, without satisfying the BIA’s obligations under federal regulations or NEPA, and seek a determination that such oil and gas leases, concession agreements and drilling permits are void  ab initio . Plaintiffs are seeking damages against the defendants for alleged nuisance, trespass, negligence and unjust enrichment. The potential consequences of such complaint could jeopardize the corresponding leases.
 
On October 7, 2014, Spyglass, along with other defendants, filed a Motion to Dismiss the August 11, 2014 Amended Complaint on various procedural and legal grounds. Following the significant briefing, the Court, on March 31, 2016, granted the Motion to Dismiss as to all defendants and entered a judgment in favor of the defendants against the plaintiffs. On April 14, 2016, Spyglass with the other defendants, filed a Motion seeking its attorneys’ fees and costs. The motion remains pending. On April 28, 2016, the Plaintiffs filed three motions: a Motion to Amend or Alter the Judgment; a Motion to Amend the Complaint; and a Motion to Vacate Order. On November 23, 2016, the Court denied all three of Plaintiffs’ motions. On December 6, 2016, the Plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal to the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals. That appeal is pending as of the filing date of these financial statements. There is no specific timeline by which the Court of Appeals must render a ruling. Spyglass intends to continue to vigorously defend its interest in this matter. 
 
 
 
(d) MegaWest Energy Missouri Corp. (“ MegaWest Missouri ”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, is involved in two cases related to oil leases in West Central, Missouri. The first case ( James Long and Jodeane Long v. MegaWest Energy Missouri and Petro River Oil Corp. , case number 13B4-CV00019)  is a case for unlawful detainer, pursuant to which the plaintiffs contend that MegaWest Missouri oil and gas lease has expired and MegaWest Missouri is unlawfully possessing the plaintiffs’ real property by asserting that the leases remain in effect. The case was originally filed in Vernon County, Missouri on September 20, 2013. MegaWest Missouri filed an Answer and Counterclaims on November 26, 2013 and the plaintiffs filed a motion to dismiss the counterclaims. MegaWest Missouri filed a motion for Change of Judge and Change of Venue and the case was transferred to Barton County. The court granted the motion to dismiss the counterclaims on February 3, 2014.  As to the other allegations in the complaint, the matter is still pending.
 
The Company is from time to time involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. It does not believe that any of these claims and proceedings against it is likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
