Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
September 30, 2015
NOTE 1 – INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the US (US GAAP) for interim financial information, with the instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying financial statements at September 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015 and for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 contain all normally recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and shareholders’ equity for such periods. Operating results for the three months ended September 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2016. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's annual report for the year ended March 31, 2015.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of less than three months when acquired.

Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740
"Income Taxes"
which codified SFAS 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes"
and FIN 48
“Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No.109.”
Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements 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 years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments as defined by FASB ASC 825-10-50 include cash, trade accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses. All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at September 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015.
FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis at September 30, 2015 or March 31, 2015.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amounts of the assets to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets based on estimated future cash flows.
Earnings Per Share Information
FASB ASC 260, “
Earnings Per Share”
provides for calculation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. For purposes of the earnings per share calculation, we consider shares to be issued as issued shares as of the date the shares are earned. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. Basic and diluted loss per share were the same, at the reporting dates, as there were no common stock equivalents outstanding.
Share Based Expenses
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50
"Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees"
which codified SFAS 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus in Issue No. 96-18 ("EITF 96-18"),
"Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services".
Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (
a
) the goods or services received; or (
b
) the equity instruments

issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction should be determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.
Reclassifications and revision of prior period amounts
Certain amounts in the September 30, 2014 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the September 30, 2015 presentation. The Company has revised prior period statement of operations to include deemed preferred stock dividends of $18,200
Recent accounting pronouncements
In August 2014, the FASB issued a new Accounting Standards Update, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (ASU 2014-15). ASU 2014-15 provides guidance on management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued, and, if such conditions exist, to provide related footnote disclosures. The guidance is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance when effective and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.
In September 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-16: Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments (ASU 2015-16). ASU 2015-16 is part of an initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards, and requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. In addition, the amendments of this update require that the acquirer record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of the changes to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. Furthermore, ASU 2015-16 requires an entity to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustments to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. For public entities, ASU 2015-16 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The provisions of this accounting update are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 4 – AGREEMENT TO PURCHASE OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES
Great Northern Energy, Inc.
On November 15, 2012, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Great Northern Energy, Inc. (“GNE”) to acquire a substantial non-operating working interest in oil assets in East Texas. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had issued 7,400,000 shares of common stock to GNE towards the purchase of the oil and gas properties. Due to the lack of any tangible results as contemplated in the Agreement, and GNE's failure to uphold certain of its obligations under the Agreement, we determined it would be in our best interest to terminate the Agreement during the year ended March 31, 2015.
GNE has returned the stock certificate for 7,400,000 common shares, however, GNE did not submit an executed stock power which is required to cancel the GNE shares. As such, these shares are considered issued and outstanding at September 30, 2017.
Black Gold Kansas Production, LLC
Kansas – George Prospect
On September 1, 2015, the Company executed a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "George PSA") with Black Gold Kansas Production, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“BGKP”). Pursuant to the George PSA, the Company shall receive a 30% working interest and a 26.25 % net revenue interest in and to the George Prospect and the 4 drilled and completed wells and any by-products produced thereon, machinery, equipment and the books and records related to same which is located in Kansas. Under this George PSA and the contemplated transaction, the Company will also acquire a 75% interest in and to approximately 3,000 acres of land within Bourbon and Allen Counties that contains approximately 42 proved undeveloped (PUD) locations for drilling. Pursuant to the George PSA, the parties also entered into a Joint Exploration Agreement. On July 23, 2015, the parties also entered into an amendment and extension to the George PSA until October 1, 2015. On August 17, 2015, the George PSA was further amended to provide for payment of the purchase price in monthly installments as follows:

The total consideration for the purchase, sale and conveyance of the Assets to the Company and the Company’s assumption of the undivided share of liabilities provided for in the George PSA, is the Company’s payment to BGKP of the sum of $767,000 (the “George Purchase Price”), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of the George PSA. Although required by the terms of the George PSA, the Company has not yet placed $10,000 in an escrow account (the "George Earnest Money"), which upon closing, would be credited towards the George Purchase Price; if however, the closing does not occur because the Company fails or refuses to do so when BGKP is otherwise ready to close and has satisfied all of its obligations under the George PSA, or the Company does not cure a material breach, then BGKP shall keep the George Earnest Money as liquidated damages in lieu of all other damages. As of the date of this Report, the Company has not yet paid the George Purchase Price and will not be able to pay that, or the George Earnest Money payment, without receiving additional funding, of which there can be no guarantee. Accordingly, the purchase may not occur.
The Company is entitled to conduct due diligence of the properties prior to closing and the George PSA includes curative provisions if certain defects or other issues arise during such due diligence, as well as the handling of any such disputes.
The George PSA may be terminated (1) at any time prior to closing by mutual written consent of the Company and BGKP, (2) by either party if closing has not occurred by October 1, 2015, or such later date to which the Closing Date has been delayed, or if any government authority issued an order or ruling permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the closing, (3) by the Company if there is a material breach of the representations and warranties made by BGKP with 15 days prior notice, and (4) by BGKP if there is a material breach of the representations and warranties made by the Company with 15 days prior notice. Either party may also terminate the George PSA if the other party does not cure any failure to comply in any material respect with any of such other party's covenants or agreements.
Wyoming – West Mule Creek
On August 6, 2014, the Company executed a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Wyoming PSA") with BGKP. Pursuant to the Wyoming PSA, the Company shall receive an agreed upon percentage of the working and net revenue interest in and to the West Mule Creek oilfield, which is located in Wyoming. Through this interest, the Company will receive a certain percentage of the West Mule Creek lease, acres of land within Niobrara County that contains 13 wells, certain rights to specific wells and land contained on the lease, as well as any by-products produced thereon, machinery, equipment and the books and records related to same. Pursuant to the Wyoming PSA, the parties also entered into a Joint Exploration Agreement (JEA”), with a 3 year term. On August 6, 2014, the parties also entered into an addendum to the Wyoming PSA that clarifies that the Wyoming PSA shall not be interdependent with or upon the JEA and no default under the JEA shall effect the Wyoming PSA or the validity of the related purchase and sale.
The total consideration for the purchase, sale and conveyance of the Assets to the Company and the Company’s assumption of the undivided share of liabilities provided for in the Wyoming PSA, is the Company’s payment to BGKP of the sum of $2,352,000 (the “Wyoming Purchase Price”), as adjusted in accordance with the provisions of the Wyoming PSA. Although required by the terms of the Wyoming PSA, the Company has not yet placed $15,000 in an escrow account (the "Wyoming Earnest Money"), which upon closing, would be credited towards the Wyoming Purchase Price; if however, the closing does not occur because the Company fails or refuses to do so when BGKP is otherwise ready to close and has satisfied all of its obligations under the Wyoming PSA, or the Company does not cure a material breach, then BGKP shall keep the Wyoming Earnest Money as liquidated damages in lieu of all other damages. As of the date of this Report, the Company has not yet paid the Wyoming Purchase Price and will not be able to pay that, or the Wyoming Earnest Money payment, without receiving additional funding, of which there can be no guarantee. Accordingly, the purchase may not occur.
The Company is entitled to conduct due diligence of the properties prior to closing and the Wyoming PSA includes curative provisions if certain defects or other issues arise during such due diligence and how any disputes regarding same may be handled.
On July 23, 2015, both parties agreed to extend the Wyoming PSA until October 1, 2015. Both parties have further agreed to defer the closing of the West Mule Creek Oilfield pursuant to the Wyoming PSA until the acquisition of the George Prospect in Kansas pursuant to the George PSA is complete.

On April 28, 2014, the Company granted 308,000 options to purchase the Company’s common stock with a three year term and an exercise price of $1 for 108,000 options and $3 for 200,000 options, pursuant to the terms of the board of director’s agreement. The options were immediately vested and had a fair value of $1,179,395 as the grant date. The options were outstanding for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 and fiscal year end March 31, 2015.

Table of Contents
The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities were based on volatilities from similar companies given our limited trading history.
The expected term of options granted is estimated at the contractual term as noted in the individual option agreements and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for the periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury bill rate in effect at the time of grant for treasury bills with maturity dates at the estimated term of the options.

Note 6 - Income Taxes
We did not provide any current or deferred U.S. Federal income tax provision or benefit for any of the periods presented because we have experienced operating losses since inception. Under ACS 740
“Income Taxes,”
when it is more likely than not that a tax asset cannot be realized through future income the Company must allow for this future tax benefit. We provided a full valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carryforwards, because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will not earn income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the carryforward period.
