Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements other than statements of historical facts are forward-looking statements. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” or similar expressions used in this report.

These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, and uncertainties. Factors which may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by us in those statements include, among others, the following:

the quality of our properties with regard to, among other things, the existence of reserves in economic quantities;

uncertainties about the estimates of reserves;

our ability to increase our production and oil and natural gas income through exploration and development;

the number of well locations to be drilled and the time frame within which they will be drilled;

the timing and extent of changes in commodity prices for natural gas and crude oil;

domestic demand for oil and natural gas;

drilling and operating risks;

the availability of equipment, such as drilling rigs and transportation pipelines;

changes in our drilling plans and related budgets; and

the adequacy of our capital resources and liquidity, including, but not limited to, access to additional borrowing capacity.

Because such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date of this report.

Certain Definitions

As used in this report, “mcf” means thousand cubic feet, “mmcf” means million cubic feet, “bcf” means billion cubic feet, “bbl” means barrel, “mbbls” means thousand barrels, and “mmbbls” means million barrels. Also in this report, “boe” means barrel of oil equivalent, “mcfe” means thousand cubic feet of natural gas equivalent, “mmcfe” means million cubic feet of natural gas equivalent, “mmbtu” means million British thermal units, and “bcfe” means billion cubic feet of natural gas equivalent. Natural gas equivalents and crude oil equivalents are determined using the ratio of six mcf of natural gas to one bbl of crude oil, condensate, or natural gas liquids. All estimates of reserves and information related to production contained in this report, unless otherwise noted, are reported on a net basis.

AURORA OIL & GAS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1.

ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Effective May 11, 2006, Cadence Resources Corporation (“Cadence”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) amended its articles of incorporation to change its name to Aurora Oil & Gas Corporation (“AOG”). The Company is engaged in the exploration, acquisition, development, production, and sale of natural gas and crude oil. The Company generates most of its revenue from the production and sale of natural gas. The Company is currently focused on acquiring and developing operating interests in unconventional drilling programs in the Michigan Antrim shale, the New Albany shale of Indiana and Kentucky and the Woodford shale in Oklahoma.

The Company uses different strategies for natural gas sales depending on the location of the field and the local markets. In most cases, the Company connects to nearby high pressure transmission pipelines and utilizes a gas marketing firm for the sale of production. Effective June 1, 2007, the Company entered into a firm sales contract with Integrys Energy Services, Inc. (formerly WPS) for 5,000 mmbtu per day at MichCon city-gate for the period June 1, 2007, through December 31, 2008. Integrys Energy Services, Inc. is the Company’s primary marketing partner for the majority of Michigan operated properties. In addition, the Company has five other base contracts established primarily for future natural gas sales in Indiana and Michigan. The Company sets the firm delivery volume obligation under these contracts on either a monthly or a daily basis with the amount of the obligation varying from month to month or day to day. As new wells come online and production volume increases, new production will be sold under the base contracts on a spot market pricing structure.

The Company’s revenue, profitability, and future rate of growth are substantially dependent on prevailing prices of natural gas and oil. Historically, the energy markets have been very volatile, and it is likely that oil and natural gas prices will continue to be subject to wide fluctuations in the future. A substantial or extended decline in natural gas and oil prices could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and access to capital and on the quantities of natural gas and oil reserves that can be economically produced.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The financial information included herein is unaudited, except the balance sheet as of December 31, 2006, which has been derived from our audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2006. Such information includes all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for an entire year.

Certain information, accounting policies, and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to certain rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2006.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2006, in order to conform to the December 31, 2006, and September 30, 2007 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net loss or net cash flows as previously reported.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the wholly-owned subsidiaries and other subsidiaries in which the Company holds a controlling financial or management interest of which the Company determined that it is primary beneficiary. The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments in entities in which the Company has an ownership interest between 20% and 50% and exercises significant influence. The Company also consolidates its pro rata share of oil and natural gas joint ventures. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed consolidated 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 condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates underlying these condensed consolidated financial statements include the estimated quantities of proved oil and natural gas reserves used to compute depletion of oil and natural gas properties and to evaluate the full cost pool in the ceiling test analysis.

Asset Retirement Obligation

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations,” which is an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143 “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.” Accordingly, an entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value can be reasonably estimated. The Company estimates a fair value of the obligation on each well in which it owns an interest by identifying costs associated with the future dismantlement and removal of production equipment and facilities and the restoration and reclamation of a field’s surface to a condition similar to that existing before oil and natural gas extraction began.

In general, the amount of an Asset Retirement Obligation (“ARO”) and the costs capitalized will be equal to the estimated future cost to satisfy the abandonment obligation using current prices that are escalated by an assumed inflation factor up to the estimated settlement date which is then discounted back to the date that the abandonment obligation was incurred using an assumed cost of funds for the Company. After recording these amounts, the ARO is accreted to its future estimated value using the same assumed cost of funds and the additional capitalized costs are depreciated on a unit-of-production basis within the related full cost pool.

Effective January 1, 2007, the accretion of the ARO on producing wells was adjusted for a change in the estimated life of the wells based on a reserve study prepared by an independent reserve engineering firm. The estimated life of the wells was increased by 10 years to an estimated life of 50 years per well. The accretion expense is included in interest expense and the depreciation expense is included in depreciation, depletion, and amortization in the consolidated statements of operations.

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of the Company’s ARO liability for the periods indicated:

Natural Gas Derivative Instruments

The Company’s results of operations and operating cash flows are impacted by the fluctuations in the market prices of natural gas. To mitigate a portion of the exposure to adverse market changes, the Company will periodically enter into various derivative instruments with a major financial institution. The purpose of the derivative instrument is to provide a measure of stability to the Company’s cash flow in meeting financial obligations while operating in a volatile natural gas market environment. The derivative instrument reduces the Company’s exposure on the hedged production volumes to decreases in commodity prices and limits the benefit the Company might otherwise receive from any increases in commodity prices on the hedged production volumes.

The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting treatment for changes in fair value, as specified in SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for Derivative Investments and Hedging Activities,” is dependent upon whether or not a derivative instrument is designated as a hedge. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, changes in fair value, to the extent the hedge is effective, are recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the accompanying balance sheet until the hedged item is recognized in earnings as natural gas revenue. If the hedge has an ineffective portion, that particular portion of the gain or loss would be immediately reported in earnings. The following natural gas contracts were in place as of September 30, 2007, and qualified as cash flow hedges:

For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the Company has recognized in Comprehensive Income changes in fair value of $2,334,862 on the contracts that have been designated as cash flow hedges on forecasted sales of natural gas. See “Comprehensive Income (Loss)” found in this note section. For the three months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, the Company recognized $1,541,930 and $1,002,300, respectively, in net gains from hedging activities included in oil and natural gas revenues. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, the Company recognized $2,900,180 and $1,794,650, respectively, in net gains from hedging activities included in oil and natural gas revenues.

Interest Rate Derivative Instruments

The Company’s use of debt directly exposes it to interest rate risk. The Company’s policy is to manage interest rate risk through the use of a combination of fixed and floating rate debt. Interest rate swaps may be used to adjust interest rate exposure when appropriate. These derivatives are used as hedges and are not for speculative purposes. These derivatives involve the exchange of amounts based on variable interest rates and amounts based on a fixed interest rate over the life of the agreement without an exchange of the notional amount upon which payments are based. The interest rate differential to be received or paid on the swaps is recognized over the lives of the swaps as an adjustment to interest expense.

In August 2007, the Company entered into a 3-year interest rate swap agreement in the notional amount of $50 million with BNP to hedge its exposure to the floating interest rate on the $50 million second lien term loan. The swap converted the debt’s floating three month LIBOR base to 4.86% fixed base. This swap on $50 million will yield an effective interest rate of 11.86% for the period from August 23, 2007 through August 23, 2010 on the second lien term loan.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, the Company has recognized in Comprehensive Income (Loss) changes in fair value of $(351,050) on the interest rate swap. See “Comprehensive Income (Loss)” found in this note section. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, the Company recognized $31,031 in interest savings related to the hedge activity which is recorded as an adjustment to interest expense.

Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable, loans receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and debt. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their respective estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities and approximate market interest rates of these instruments.

Stock-Based Compensation

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS No. 123R), to account for stock-based employee compensation. Among other items, SFAS No. 123R eliminates the use of Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and the intrinsic value method of accounting and requires companies to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock-based awards based on the grant date fair value of those awards in their financial statements. The Company elected to use the modified prospective method for adoption, which requires compensation expense to be recorded for all unvested stock options beginning in the first quarter of adoption. For stock-based awards granted or modified subsequent to January 1, 2006, compensation expense, based on the fair value on the date of grant, will be recognized in the financial statements over the vesting period. The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes option pricing model to measure the fair value of stock options. To the extent compensation cost relates to employees directly involved in oil and natural gas exploration and development activities, such amounts are capitalized to oil and natural gas properties. Amounts not capitalized to oil and natural gas properties are recognized as general and administrative expenses. See Note 8 “Common Stock Options” which fully describes the Company’s stock-based compensation plans.

The following stock-based compensation was recorded for the periods indicated:

For the Three Months Ended September 30,	2007		2006

Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus other dilutive securities, such as restricted stock grants, stock options, warrants, and redeemable convertible preferred stock. All dilutive securities were excluded in the computation of diluted loss per share for all periods indicated because their effect of assumed exercises or conversions was anti-dilutive and, accordingly, basic and dilutive weighted average shares are the same.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

On February 15, 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”—including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The FASB believes the statement will improve financial reporting by providing companies the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. Use of the statement will expand the use of fair value measurements for accounting for financial instruments. The Company does not believe SFAS No. 159 will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

OIL AND NATURAL GAS PROPERTIES HELD FOR SALE

During the second quarter of 2006, the Company identified $21.4 million of oil and natural gas properties as held for sale due to their high probability of being sold within a 12 month period. Through September 30, 2007, the Company completed $5.1 million in planned oil and natural gas properties sales consisting of four oil and natural gas properties located in Kansas, Louisiana, Ohio, and New Mexico. (See Note 4 “Acquisitions and Dispositions” for 2007 activity.) Under the full cost method, sales of oil and natural gas properties, whether or not being amortized currently, are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves. The Company will routinely focus attention on its oil and natural gas properties to ensure that its continued holdings are aligned with the Company’s long-term strategic plan. Management has removed properties held for sale from the balance sheet given the investigation of strategic alternatives currently being explored.

Second Lien Term Loan

On August 20, 2007, the Company entered into a second lien term loan agreement with BNP Paribas (“BNP”), as the arranger and administrative agent, and several other lenders forming a syndicate. The initial term loan is $50 million for a 5-year term (expires 8/20/12) which may increase up to $70 million under certain conditions over the life of the loan facility. The proceeds of the loan were used to repay the outstanding balance under the Company’s mezzanine financing with Trust Company of the West (“TCW”) and for general corporate purposes. Interest under the loan is payable at rates based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 700 basis points with a step-down of 25 basis points once the Company’s ratio of total indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, and other non-cash charges is lower than or equal to a ratio of 4.0 to 1.0 on a trailing four quarters basis. The Company has the ability to prepay the loan during the first year at a price equal to 103% of par, during the second year at a price equal to 102% of par, and thereafter at a price equal to 100% of par.

The loan contains, among other things, a number of financial and non-financial covenants relating to restricted payments (as defined), loans or advances to others, additional indebtedness, incurrence of liens, geographic limitations on operations to the United States, and maintenance of certain financial and operating ratios, including (i) maintenance of a maximum of indebtedness to earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization and non-cash expenses, and (ii) maintenance of minimum reserve value to indebtedness. Any event of default under the senior secured credit facility that accelerates the maturity of any indebtedness thereunder is also an event of default under the second lien term loan.

In both the loan and senior secured credit facility, the Company agreed to an affirmative covenant regarding production exit rates with the first net production target being 9.5 MMcfe per day as of June 30, 2007, which the Company achieved. The second target production exit target is 10.5 MMcfe per day as of September 30, 2007 (which has been achieved), and the third production exit target is 12.0 MMcfe per day as December 31, 2007, and as of the last day of each quarter thereafter. In addition, the Company was required to purchase financial hedges at prices and aggregate notional volumes satisfactory to BNP, as administrative agent. This requirement has been satisfied.

Mezzanine Financing

Effective August 20, 2007, the Company’s subsidiary Aurora Antrim North, L.L.C. (“North”) terminated its Amended Note Purchase Agreement with TCW which provided $50 million in mezzanine financing. As of the effective date, North had outstanding borrowing of $40 million. The interest rate was fixed at 11.5% per year, compounded quarterly, and payable in arrears. TCW had limited the borrowing base and the agreement contained a commitment expiration date of August 12, 2007. Under the termination provisions, the Company was required to pay certain fees and prepayment charges associated with early termination. The following represents the expenditures paid to TCW: (i) $40 million payment of principal; (ii) $0.7 million payment of interest expense from June 27, 2007, through August 20, 2007; (iii) $0.36 million payment of interest make-whole provision from August 21, 2007, through September 27, 2007; (iv) $1.25 million payment of prepayment premium; and (v) $0.2 million payment for a make-whole provision on principal greater than $30 million.

As part of the mezzanine financing with TCW, North provided an affiliate of TCW an overriding royalty interest of 4% in certain leases to be drilled or developed in the Counties of Alcona, Alpena, Charlevoix, Cheboygan, Montmorency, and Otsego in the State of Michigan. The overriding royalty interest will also continue on leases, including extensions or renewals, held by the Company and its affiliates at August 20, 2007, that may be developed through September 29, 2009.

For the three months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, interest and fees incurred for the mezzanine credit facility was $638,471 and $1,175,417, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, interest and fees incurred for the mezzanine credit facility was $2,989,305 and $3,526,528, respectively. In addition, the Company completed a write-off $1.6 million of unamortized debt issuance cost associated with the mezzanine financing.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

On January 31, 2006, the Company entered into a $100 million senior secured credit facility with BNP and other lenders for drilling, development, and acquisitions, as well as other general corporate purposes. In connection with the second lien term loan discussed above, the Company also agreed to the amendment and restatement of the senior secured credit facility, pursuant to which the borrowing base under the senior secured credit facility was increased from the current authorized borrowing base of $50 million to $70 million effective August 20, 2007. The amount of the borrowing base is based primarily upon the estimated value of the Company’s oil and natural gas reserves. The borrowing base amount is redetermined by the lenders semi-annually on or about April 1 and October 1 of each year or at other times required by the lenders or at the Company’s request. The required semiannual reserve report may result in an increase or decrease in credit availability. The security for this facility is substantially all of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties; guarantees from all material subsidiaries; and a pledge of 100% of the stock or member interest of all material subsidiaries.

This facility provides for borrowings tied to BNP’s prime rate (or, if higher, the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5%) or LIBOR-based rate plus 1.25% to 2.0% depending on the borrowing base utilization, as selected by the Company. The borrowing base utilization is the percentage of the borrowing base that is drawn under the senior secured credit facility from time to time. As the borrowing base utilization increases, the LIBOR-based interest rates increase under this facility. As of September 30, 2007, interest on the borrowings had a weighted average interest rate of 6.93%. For the three months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, interest and fees incurred for the senior secured credit facility were $794,298 and $785,738, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, interest and fees incurred for the senior secured credit facility were $1,773,533 and $1,892,134, respectively. All outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the senior secured facility is due and payable on January 31, 2010. The maturity date of the outstanding loan may be accelerated by the lenders upon occurrence of an event of default under the senior secured credit facility.

The senior secured credit facility contains, among other things, a number of financial and non-financial covenants relating to restricted payments (as defined), loans or advances to others, additional indebtedness, incurrence of liens, geographic limitations on operations to the United States, and maintenance of certain financial and operating ratios, including (i) maintenance of a minimum current ratio, and (ii) maintenance of a minimum interest coverage ratio. Any event of default under the second lien term loan that accelerates the maturity of any indebtedness thereunder is also an event of default under the senior secured credit facility.

The Company has incurred deferred financing fees of approximately $680,350 with regard to the senior secured credit facility. The deferred financing fees are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining terms of the debt obligation. Amortization expense for the senior secured credit facility is estimated to be $202,000 per year through 2009. Amortization expense was $47,930 and $215,148 for the three months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, respectively. Amortization expense was $114,031 and $598,293 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, respectively. In addition, the Company incurs various annual fees associated with unused commitment and agency fees. These annual fees are recorded to interest expense.

The Company capitalizes interest on debt related to expenditures made in connection with exploration and development projects that are not subject to the full cost amortization pool. Interest is capitalized only for the period that exploration activities are in progress. Interest is capitalized using a weighted average interest rate based on the outstanding borrowing and cost of equity of the Company. Capitalized interest was $1,225,728 and $30,705 for the three months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, respectively. Capitalized interest was $3,083,417 and $677,682 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, and 2006, respectively.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Environmental Risk

Due to the nature of the oil and natural gas business, the Company is exposed to possible environmental risks. The Company manages its exposure to environmental liabilities for both properties it owns as well as properties to be acquired. The Company has historically not experienced any significant environmental liability and is not aware of any potential material environmental issues or claims at September 30, 2007.

Letters of Credit

For each salt water disposal well drilled in the State of Michigan, the Company is required to issue a letter of credit to the Michigan Supervisor of Wells. The Supervisor of Wells may draw on the letter of credit if the Company fails to comply with the regulatory requirements relating to the locating, drilling, completing, producing, reworking, plugging, filling of pits, and clean up of the well site. The letter of credit or a substitute financial instrument is required to be in place until the salt water disposal well is plugged and abandoned. For drilling natural gas wells, the Company is required to issue a blanket letter of credit to the Michigan Supervisor of Wells. This blanket letter of credit allows the Company to drill an unlimited number of natural gas wells. The existing letters of credit have been issued by Northwestern Bank of Traverse City, Michigan, and are secured only by a Reimbursement and Indemnification Commitment issued by the Company, together with a right of setoff against all of the Company’s deposit accounts with Northwestern Bank. At September 30, 2007, letters of credit in the amount of $1.2 million were outstanding to the Michigan Supervisor of Wells.

Employment Agreement

Effective June 19, 2006, the Company hired Ronald E. Huff to serve as Chief Financial Officer of the Company. The Company has entered into a 2-year Employment Agreement with Mr. Huff, providing for an annual salary of $200,000 per year and an award of a stock bonus in the amount of 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock on January 1, 2009, so long as he remains employed by the Company through June 18, 2008, which requires the Company to record approximately $2.1 million in stock-based compensation expense over the contract period. If his employment with the Company is terminated prior to this date without just cause or if the Company undergoes a change in control, he will nonetheless be awarded the full 500,000 shares. If his employment is terminated prior to June 18, 2008, due to death or disability, he will receive a prorated stock award. Mr. Huff forfeited the option to purchase 200,000 shares that he was previously awarded for his service as a director of the Company. Mr. Huff remains a director of the Company.

Equipment Sale - Leaseback Agreement

Effective June 21, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with Fifth Third Bank to sell and leaseback three natural gas compressors, which were accounted for as an operating lease. The net carrying value of the natural gas compressors sold was $1,202,000. Because the net carrying value of the natural gas compressors was equal to the sales price, there was no gain or loss recognized on the sale. The lease agreement has a base lease term of 84 months with a monthly rental fee of $13,610 beginning July 1, 2007.

Fry Well Loss

The Company participated with Savoy Energy, L.P. (“Savoy”) in a exploratory well known as the Fry 1-13 located in Mecosta County, Michigan. In late December 2006, the well experienced a blow-out event which incurred approximately $5.6 million associated with controlling the well and other related costs. The Company had a 13.33% cost interest (10% working interest) in this well to casing point and paid approximately $762,000 to cover its portion of the loss to Savoy. The Company’s insurance covered approximately 34% or $266,666 of the well control costs.

Retention Bonus

On September 19, 2007, the Company announced that it had retained Johnson Rice & Company, L.L.C. to assist the Board of Directors with investigating strategic alternatives for the Company. These alternatives, among other things, may include revisions to the Company’s strategic plan, asset divestitures, operating partnerships, identifying additional capital sources, or a sale, merger, or other business combination of the Company. The Board of Directors of the Company has approved a retention bonus arrangement to encourage certain key officers and employees to remain with the Company through the completion of the Company’s review of potential strategic alternatives. The Board of Directors recognizes that certain key officers and employees will have increased responsibilities and duties during the evaluation of strategic alternatives and will contribute significantly to the process. The aggregate retention bonus consists of four payments over an 8-month period beginning in late October 2007 through late April 2008. The key officers and employees must remain continuously employed with the Company as well as remain in good standing on the scheduled payment dates. As of October 24, 2007, certain officers of the Company that accepted this arrangement are as follows: (i) Ronald Huff (President and Chief Financial Officer); (ii) John C. Hunter (Vice President); (iii) John V. Miller (Vice President); and (iv) Lorraine M. King (Former Chief Financial Officer). As of September 30, 2007, the Company has recorded $237,500 for estimated retention bonuses in 2007.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION

Effective May 30, 2007, the board of directors named John C. Hunter as Vice President of Exploration and Production. He has worked for AOG since 2005 as Senior Petroleum Engineer. Prior to that, Mr. Hunter was instrumental in certain projects associated with the Company’s New Albany shale play. Over a series of agreements with the Company, Mr. Hunter (controlling member of Venator Energy, LLC) has acquired 1.25% working interest in certain leases. The leases cover approximately 132,600 acres (1,658 net) in certain counties located in Indiana. The 1.25% carried working interest shall be effective until development costs exceed $30 million. Thereafter, participation may continue as a standard 1.25% working interest owner. The Company is entitled to recovery of 100% of development costs (plus interest at a rate of 6.75% per annum compounded annually) from 85% of the net operating revenue generated from oil and gas production developed directly or indirectly in the area of mutual interest covered by the agreement. As of September 30, 2007, there is no production associated with this working interest and development costs were approximately $12.0 million.

Effective July 1, 2004, Aurora Energy, Ltd., (“AEL”), entered into a Fee Sharing Agreement with Mr. Hunter as compensation for bringing Bluegrass Energy Enhancement Fund, LLC (“Bluegrass”) and AEL together for the development of the 1500 Antrim and Red Run Projects in Michigan. At this time, AEL and Bluegrass have discontinued leasing activities in both projects. In the 1500 Antrim project, there are 23,989.41 acres. Mr. Hunter's carried working interest share of 0.8333% is approximately 199.95 net acres. The carried working interest relates to the first 55 wells that are drilled in the area of mutual interest. Thereafter, Mr. Hunter would pay his proportionate share of working interest expenses. Currently, there are no producing wells. The Red Run project contains 12,893.64 acres. Mr. Hunter's carried working interest share of 0.8333% is approximately 107.44 net acres. The carried working interest relates to the first 55 wells that are drilled in the area of mutual interest. Thereafter, Mr. Hunter would pay his proportionate share of working interest expenses. Currently, there are 3 wells permitted for the Red Run project and one well was temporarily abandoned in June 2007.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with management’s discussion and analysis contained in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, as well as the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes hereto included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements because of the risks and uncertainties inherent in future events.

Overview

We are a growing independent energy company focused on the exploration, exploitation, and development of unconventional natural gas reserves. Our unconventional natural gas projects target shale plays where large acreage blocks can be easily evaluated with a series of low cost test wells. Shale plays tend to be characterized by high drilling success and relatively low drilling costs when compared to conventional exploration and development plays. Our project areas are focused in the Antrim shale of Michigan, the New Albany shale of Southern Indiana and Western Kentucky and the Woodford shale of Oklahoma.

We commenced operations in 1969 to explore and mine natural resources under the name Royal Resources, Inc. In July 2001, we reorganized our business to pursue oil and gas exploration and development opportunities and changed our name to Cadence Resources Corporation. We acquired Aurora Energy, Ltd. (“Aurora”) on October 31, 2005, through the merger of our wholly-owned subsidiary with and into Aurora. The acquisition of Aurora was accounted for as a reverse merger with Aurora being the acquiring party for accounting purposes. The Aurora executive management team also assumed management control at the time the merger closed, and we moved our corporate offices to Traverse City, Michigan. Effective May 11, 2006, Cadence Resources Corporation amended its articles of incorporation to change the parent company name to Aurora Oil & Gas Corporation.

Our revenue, profitability and future rate of growth are substantially dependent on our ability to find, develop, and acquire gas reserves that are economically recoverable based on prevailing prices of natural gas and oil. Historically, the energy markets have been very volatile, and it is likely that oil and natural gas prices will continue to be subject to wide fluctuations in the future. A substantial or extended decline in natural gas and oil prices could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows, access to capital and on the quantities of natural gas and oil that can be economically produced.

Highlights

For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, we continued to shift our focus from acquisition of properties to an early stage developer of unconventional shale development projects. As of September 30, 2007, our leasehold acres (both developed and undeveloped) were 1,277,364 (709,613 net) which represent a 3% increase over our December 31, 2006 net acres. These leasehold acres are included in the following plays: 295,193 (153,424 net) leasehold acres in the Michigan Antrim Shale play, 14,803 (14,803 net) leasehold acres in the Indiana Antrim Shale play, 843,883 (445,261 net) acres in the New Albany shale play, 35,898 (31,950 net) acres in the Woodford shale play, and 87,587 (64,175 net) acres in the Other play areas. In early September, Rex Energy Corporation exercised an option to acquire a 30% working interest in oil and natural gas leases covering approximately 70,324 (21,097 net) acres in the New Albany shale play which is reflected as reduction in the New Albany shale acreage.

With regard to our strategy to generate growth through drilling, we drilled or participated in 92 (54 net) wells for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, with a 92% success rate. As of September 30, 2007, we had 639 (300 net) producing wells, 33 (15 net) wells awaiting hook-up, 51 (38 net) wells undergoing resource assessment and 15 (4 net) wells temporarily abandoned. We also continued our strategy to have greater control over our projects by operating 257 (239 net) wells, thus, operating 33% of our gross wells and 67% of our net wells.

Of the 239 net wells operated by the Company, 190 net wells are producing in the Antrim; 7 net wells are awaiting hook-up primarily in the Antrim; 24 net wells are undergoing resource assessment in the Antrim, 3 net wells are producing in the New Albany; 2 net wells are awaiting hook-up in the New Albany; 7 net wells are undergoing resource assessment in the New Albany; 4 net wells are undergoing resource assessment in the Other plays; and 2 net wells are temporarily abandoned.

Oil and natural gas production for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, was 2,335,198 mcfe, a 17% increase over the 1,981,833 mcfe produced in the nine months ended September 30, 2006. For the nine months ended September 30, 2007, production continues to be hampered by wells undergoing resource assessment and dewatering.

On August 20, 2007, the Company entered into a second lien term loan agreement with BNP, as the arranger and administrative agent, and several other lenders forming a syndication. The initial term loan is $50 million for a 5-year term which may increase up to $70 million under certain conditions over the life of the loan facility. The proceeds of the loan were used to pay off the Company’s existing mezzanine financing with TCW and for general corporate purposes. In connection with the loan, the Company also agreed to the amendment and restatement of its senior secured credit facility with BNP and other lenders, pursuant to which the borrowing base under the senior secured credit facility was increased from the current authorized borrowing base of $50 million to $70 million.

On September 10, 2007, the Company announced that it has established an acreage position of over 30,000 net acres in the Woodford Shale natural gas play of Oklahoma. The identified target area is focused in central Oklahoma, which is experiencing a significant increase in leasing and drilling activity. It is positioned among geological provinces with active Woodford Shale development, with average depths over 5,000 feet and organic shale thickness up to 300 feet. The Company has expended approximately $6.5 million for an 89% working interest in over 35,000 gross acres in the play. The early leasing activities have allowed the Company to establish this competitive position in the targeted play area. Leasing activities are continuing. The Company has targeted 2008 for a pilot program of 5 test wells in its project area. Since the Company’s current capital expenditure budget has been dedicated to further development of the Antrim and New Albany shales, the Company has been in discussions with potential financing and joint venture partners to facilitate aggressive development of this acreage. No financing for this development has been procured as of the date of this filing.

On September 19, 2007, the Company announced that it has retained Johnson Rice & Company, L.L.C. to assist the Board of Directors with investigating strategic alternatives for the Company. These alternatives, among other things, may include revisions to the Company’s strategic plan, asset divestitures, operating partnerships, identifying additional capital sources, or a sale, merger, or other business combination of the Company. The Company intends to disclose developments regarding the exploration of alternatives only if and when the Board of Directors has approved a specific course of action. There is no assurance that this process will result in any changes to the Company’s current strategic direction. There is no specific timeframe to complete the review and there are no constraints on options to be explored.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended September 30, 2007, compared with Three Months Ended September 30, 2006

General . For the Current Quarter, the Company had a net loss of $3.3 million, or $(0.03) per diluted common share, on total revenues of $7.2 million. This compares to a net loss of $2.1 million, or $(0.03) per diluted common share, on total revenue of $5.3 million for the Prior Year Quarter. The $1.9 million increase in revenue represents our initial steps as an early stage developer of oil and natural gas properties as well as a gain recognized in the natural gas hedging activities. In addition, the net loss of $3.3 million in the Current Quarter included $3.4 million one time charge on debt extinguishment.

Oil and Natural Gas Sales . During the Current Quarter, oil and natural gas sales were $7.0 million compared to $5.2 million in the Prior Year Quarter. The Company produced 841,746 mcfe at a weighted average price of $8.27 compared to 685,948 mcfe at a weighted average price of $7.55. This increase in production was due to new wells placed on-line. We had 300 net wells producing as of September 30, 2007, as compared to 193 net wells producing as of September 30, 2006. The weighted average price included $1.5 million and $1.0 million of realized gains from the gas derivative contract for Current Quarter and Prior Year Quarter, respectively. Production from the Antrim shale play represented approximately 91% of our oil and natural gas revenue for the Current Quarter.

The following table summarizes our oil and natural gas revenue by play/trend in the periods set forth below:

	Three Months Ended September 30, 2007				Three Months Ended September 30, 2006
Play/Trend	(mcfe)		Amount		(mcfe)		Amount
Antrim		780,834	$	6,309,185		619,677	$	4,632,415
New Albany		14,361		90,498		7,391		47,212
Other		46,551		557,386		58,880		496,008
Total		841,746	$	6,957,069		685,948	$	5,175,635

Other Revenues . Other revenues increased by $0.1 million, or 84% to $0.3 million in the Current Quarter from $0.2 million in the Prior Year Quarter. This increase is attributed the Bach acquisition in October 2006 which provides oil and natural gas field services.

Production Taxes. Production taxes were $0.3 million in the Current Quarter compared to $0.2 million in the Prior Year Quarter. This increase is attributed to new wells being added and production growth of existing wells. On a unit of production basis, production taxes were $0.31 per mcfe in the Current Quarter compared to $0.31 per mcfe in the Prior Year Quarter.

Production and Lease Operating Expenses . Our production and lease operating expenses include services related to producing oil and natural gas, such as post-production costs which includes marketing and transportation, and expenses to operate the wells and equipment on producing leases.

Production and lease operating expenses were $2.1 million in the Current Quarter compared to $1.4 million in the Prior Year Quarter. On a per unit of production basis, production and lease operating expenses were $2.48 per mcfe in the Current Quarter compared to $2.00 per mcfe in the Prior Year Quarter. The increase in the Current Quarter was primarily attributable to higher energy costs, higher property taxes, pumping costs, and higher repair and maintenance associated with meters, generators, compressors and pumps. On a component basis, post-production expenses were $0.5 million, or $0.53 per mcfe, in the Current Quarter compared to $0.3 million, or $0.42 per mcfe, in the Prior Year Quarter, and lease operating expenses were $1.6 million, or $1.95 per mcfe, in the Current Quarter compared to $1.1 million, or $1.58 per mcfe, in the Prior Year Quarter.

Production and lease operating expenses for operated properties were $2.31 per mcfe in the Current Quarter while non-operated production and lease operating expenses were $2.93 per mcfe in the Current Quarter. Our operated Arrowhead, Blue Chip, and Gaylord Fishing Club projects continue to negatively impact our operating cost controls and efficiency due to dewatering. Production and lease operating expenses for operated properties excluding Arrowhead, Blue Chip, and Gaylord Fishing Club projects were $2.11 per mcfe in the Current Period.

Pipeline Operating Expenses and Field Services Expenses . Pipeline operating expenses were $0.1 million in the Current Quarter compared to $0.1 million in the Prior Year Quarter. Field services expenses were $58,000 in the Current Quarter compared to no expense in the Prior Year Quarter which are attributable to the Bach acquisition in October 2006.

General and Administrative Expenses . Our general and administrative expenses include officer and employee compensation, travel, audit, tax and legal fees, office supplies, utilities, insurance, consulting fees, and office related expense. General and administrative expenses in the Current Quarter decreased by $0.2 million, or 12%, from the Prior Year Quarter.

Payroll and related costs decreased by $0.1 million to $1.5 million in the Current Quarter due to lower director and employee stock based compensation of $0.3 million which was offset by a 2007 retention bonus accrual of $0.2 million. Legal, accounting, and other consulting services were relatively flat at $0.3 million in the Current Quarter compared to $0.3 million in the Prior Year Quarter.

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting under which all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration, and development activities are capitalized. We capitalized certain internal costs that can be directly identified with our acquisition, exploration, and development activities and do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities. We capitalized $0.3 million of payroll and benefit costs for the Current Quarter compared to $0.4 million in the Prior Year Quarter.

Oil and Natural Gas Depletion, Depreciation and Amortization (“DD&A”) . DD&A of oil and natural gas properties was $0.7 million and $0.9 million during the Current Quarter and the Prior Year Quarter, respectively. DD&A is a function of capitalized costs in the full cost pool and related underlying reserves in the periods presented. This decrease is the result of a change in estimate of DD&A from proven developed reserves to total proven reserves and the underlying reserves increasing by 89 bcfe as of December 31, 2006. The average DD&A cost per mcfe was $0.86 and $1.31 in the Current Quarter and the Prior Year Quarter, respectively.

Other Assets Depreciation and Amortization (“D&A”) . D&A of other assets was $0.6 million in the Current Quarter compared to $0.5 million in the Prior Year Quarter. This increase was primarily the result of additions in other assets.

Interest Expense . Interest expense was $1.2 million in the Current Quarter compared to $2.3 million in the Prior Year Quarter. This decrease is the result of a change in estimating capitalized interest. During the fourth quarter 2006, the Company modified its approach to estimating capitalized interest by recognizing that debt need not be specific debt incurred on a specific asset.

Loss on Debt Extinguishment. The Company recorded $3.4 million as a loss on debt extinguishment due to the termination of the mezzanine debt. Under the termination provisions, the Company was required to pay certain fees and prepayment charges associated with early termination. The following represents the expenses incurred: (i) $0.35 million payment of interest make-whole provision from August 21, 2007, through September 27, 2007; (ii) $1.25 million payment of prepayment premium; (iii) $0.2 million payment for a make-whole provision on principal greater than $30 million; and (iv) $1.6 million write-off of unamortized debt issuance cost.

Taxes, Other . Other taxes primarily include state franchise taxes and personal property taxes. The Company has significant net operating loss carryforwards, thus no federal income tax expense has been recognized for either the Current Quarter or Prior Year Quarter. Tax expense was $95,773 in the Current Quarter compared to $9,928 in the Prior Year Quarter. This increase primarily represents the Company’s 2007 9-month accrual on state income taxes, single business taxes and state franchise taxes.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007, compared with Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006

General . For the Current Period, the Company had a net loss of $3.8 million, or $(0.04) per diluted common share, on total revenues of $20.8 million. This compares to a net loss of $4.0 million, or $(0.05) per diluted common share, on total revenue of $16.7 million for the Prior Year Period. The $4.1 million increase in revenue represents the following: (i) our initial steps as an early stage developer of oil and natural gas properties; (ii) revenue from 2006 Bach acquisition; and (iii) a gain recognized in the sale of mining claims. In addition, the net loss of $3.8 million in the Current Period included $3.4 million one time charge on debt extinguishment.

Oil and Natural Gas Sales . During the Current Period, oil and natural gas sales were $19.5 million compared to $16.1 million in the Prior Year Period. The Company produced 2,335,198 mcfe at a weighted average price of $8.35 compared to 1,981,833 mcfe at a weighted average price of $8.13. This increase in production was due to new wells placed on-line and production growth of existing wells. We had 300 net wells producing as of September 30, 2007, as compared to 193 net wells producing as of September 30, 2006. The weighted average price included $2.9 million and $1.8 million of realized gains from gas derivative contracts for the Current Period and Prior Year Period, respectively. Production from the Antrim shale play represented approximately 92% of our oil and natural gas revenue for the Current Period.

The following table summarizes our oil and natural gas revenue by play/trend in the periods set forth below:

	Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007				Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006
Play/Trend		(mcfe)		Amount		(mcfe)		Amount

Antrim		2,165,342	$	17,869,384		1,733,820	$	13,878,206
New Albany		37,724		264,259		16,522		116,313
Other		132,132		1,355,431		231,491		2,122,336
Total		2,335,198	$	19,489,074		1,981,833	$	16,116,855

Other Revenues . Other revenues increased by $0.7 million, or 124% to $1.3 million in the Current Period from $0.6 million in the Prior Year Period. This increase is attributed to the sale of mining claims ($0.4 million) and to the Bach acquisition ($0.3 million) in October 2006 which provides oil and natural gas field services.

Production Taxes. Production taxes were $0.8 million in the Current Period compared to $0.7 million in the Prior Year Period. This increase is attributed to new wells being added and production growth of existing wells. On a unit of production basis, production taxes were $0.36 per mcfe in the Current Period compared to $0.33 per mcfe in the Prior Year Period.

Production and Lease Operating Expenses . Our production and lease operating expenses include services related to producing oil and natural gas, such as post-production costs, including marketing and transportation, and expenses to operate the wells and equipment on producing leases.

Production and lease operating expenses were $6.2 million in the Current Period compared to $4.2 million in the Prior Year Period. On a per unit of production basis, production and lease operating expenses were $2.66 per mcfe in the Current Period compared to $2.14 per mcfe in the Prior Year Period. The increase in the Current Period was primarily attributable to higher energy costs, higher property taxes, higher pumping costs, repair and maintenance associated with meters, compressors and pumps, and outside labor. On a component basis, post-production expenses were $1.2 million, or $0.53 per mcfe, in the Current Period compared to $0.9 million, or $0.47 per mcfe, in the Prior Year Period, and lease operating expenses were $5.0 million, or $2.13 per mcfe, in the Current Period compared to $3.3 million, or $1.67 per mcfe, in the Prior Year Period.

Production and lease operating expenses for operated properties were $2.48 per mcfe in the Current Period while non-operated production and lease operating expenses were $3.17 per mcfe in the Current Period. Our operated Arrowhead, Blue Chip, and Gaylord Fishing Club projects continue to negatively impact our operating cost controls and efficiency due to dewatering. Production and lease operating expenses for operated properties excluding Arrowhead, Blue Chip, and Gaylord Fishing Club projects were $2.21 per mcfe in the Current Period.

Pipeline Operating Expenses and Field Services Expenses . Pipeline operating expenses were $0.3 million in the Current Period compared to $0.1 million in the Prior Year Period. Field services expenses were $0.2 million in the Current Period compared to no expense in the Prior Year Period which are attributable to the Bach acquisition in October 2006.

General and Administrative Expenses . Our general and administrative expenses include officer and employee compensation, travel, audit, tax and legal fees, office supplies, utilities, insurance, consulting fees, and office related expense. General and administrative expenses in the Current Period increased by $0.8 million, or 15%, from the Prior Year Period. This increase is the result of executing our growth strategy. This has resulted in substantial increases in employees and related cost.

Payroll and related costs increased by $1.8 million to $4.7 million in the Current Period due to higher staffing ($0.9 million), stock-based compensation ($0.6 million), 2007 retention bonus ($0.2 million), and health care ($0.1 million). Legal, accounting, and other consulting services were reduced by $0.6 million to $1.0 million in the Current Period compared to $1.6 million in the Prior Year Period. Insurance had a slight increase of $50,000 due to coverage associated with Bach while there were offsets of $0.4 million from the disposal of legacy Cadence stock investments and correction of the stock ledger associated with prior Cadence transaction.

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting under which all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration, and development activities are capitalized. We capitalized certain internal costs that can be directly identified with our acquisition, exploration, and development activities and do not include any costs related to production, general corporate overhead, or similar activities. We capitalized $1.1 million of payroll and benefit costs for the Current Period compared to $1.0 million in the Prior Year Period.

Oil and Natural Gas Depletion, Depreciation and Amortization (“DD&A”) . DD&A of oil and natural gas properties was $2.2 million and $2.9 million during the Current Period and the Prior Year Period, respectively. DD&A is a function of capitalized costs in the full cost pool and related underlying reserves in the periods presented. This decrease is the result of a change in estimate of DD&A from proven developed reserves to total proven reserves and the underlying reserves increasing by 89 bcfe as of December 31, 2006. The average DD&A cost per mcfe was $0.96 and $1.47 in the Current Period and the Prior Year Period, respectively.

Other Assets Depreciation and Amortization (“D&A”) . D&A of other assets was $1.8 million in the Current Period, compared to $1.5 million in the Prior Year Period. This increase was primarily the result of additions in other assets.

Interest Expense . Interest expense was $3.3 million in the Current Period compared to $5.8 million in the Prior Year Period. This decrease is primarily the result of a change in estimating capitalized interest. During the fourth quarter 2006, the Company modified its approach to estimating capitalized interest by recognizing that debt need not be specific debt incurred on a specific asset.

Taxes, Other . Tax expense was $95,720 in the Current Period compared to $39,289 in the Prior Year Period. This increase primarily represents the Company’s 2007 9-month accrual on state income taxes, single business taxes and state franchise taxes. The Company has significant net operating loss carryforwards, thus no federal income tax expense has been recognized.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We expect to fund our growth using a combination of existing and anticipated debt capacity, sale of non-core assets, existing cash balances, and internally generated cash flows from sales of natural gas production. Our revised 2007 capital budget for drilling and related well work and infrastructure is estimated to be approximately $52.9 million with anticipated participation in 162 (111 net) wells. Future cash flows are subject to a number of variables, including the level of production, natural gas prices and successful drilling efforts. We may be required to adjust our capital expenditures if additional debt financing is not obtained and we are not able to complete sales of non-core assets. We have recently retained Johnson Rice & Company, L.L.C. to investigate strategic alternatives for the Company. The alternatives, among other things, may include revisions to the Company's strategic plan, asset divestitures, operating partnerships, identifying additional capital sources, or a sale, merger, or other business combination of the Company. We anticipate reducing our drilling activities and postponing significant asset divestitures, but we intend to maintain current operations pending the outcome of the strategic alternatives evaluation presented by Johnson Rice & Company, L.L.C. There can be no assurance that operations and other capital resources will provide cash in sufficient amounts to maintain planned or future levels of capital expenditures.

On August 20, 2007, we entered into a second lien term loan agreement with BNP, as the arranger and administrative agent, and several other lenders forming a syndicate. The initial term loan is $50 million for a 5-year term which may increase up to $70 million under certain conditions over the life of the loan facility. The proceeds of the loan were used to payoff the Company’s existing mezzanine financing with TCW and for general corporate purposes.

Interest under the loan is payable at rates based on the London Interbank Offered Rate plus 700 basis points with a step-down of 25 basis points once the Company’s ratio of total indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, and other noncash charges is lower than or equal to a ratio of 4.0 to 1.0 on a trailing four quarters basis. The Company has the ability to prepay the loan during the first year at a price equal to 103% of par, during the second year at a price equal to 102% of par, and thereafter at a price equal to 100% of par.

Our senior secured credit facility is a $100 million senior secured credit facility with BNP. In connection with the second lien term loan, the Company also agreed to the amendment and restatement of its senior secured credit facility with BNP and other lenders, pursuant to which the borrowing base under the senior secured credit facility was increased from the current authorized borrowing base of $50 million to $70 million. The amount of the borrowing base is based primarily upon the estimated value of the Company’s oil and natural gas reserves. The borrowing base amount is redetermined by the lenders semi-annually on or about April 1 and October 1 of each year or at other times required by the lenders or at the Company’s request. The required semiannual reserve report may result in an increase or decrease in credit availability. The security for this facility is substantially all of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties; guarantees from all material subsidiaries; and a pledge of 100% of the stock or member interest of all material subsidiaries.

Our short-term line of credit is a $5 million revolving line of credit with Northwestern Bank for general corporate purposes. As of September 30, 2007, our total borrowing capacity available under this facility was $3.6 million. The interest rate is the prime rate with interest payable monthly in arrears. Principal is payable at the expiration of the line of credit, October 15, 2007. The Company has elected not to request an extension of this revolving line of credit beyond the expiration date and has paid the remaining loan balance as of September 25, 2007.

Our total capitalization was as follows:

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities increased $6.4 million or 225% to $9.3 million in the Current Period, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $2.9 million in the Prior Year Period. This $6.4 million increase in net cash provided by operating activities was due to increase in production revenues with reductions operating expenses are well as increases in other income. See “Results of Operations” for discussion of changes in revenues and expenses. Non-cash charges such as depreciation, depletion and amortization and stock-based compensation remained relative flat except for the non-cash charge on debt extinguishment. Changes in current operating assets and liabilities decreased cash flow from operations by $3.8 million.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

Cash flows used in investing activities was $52.1 million in the Current Period, compared to $69.6 million in the Prior Year Period. The following table describes our significant investing transactions that we completed in the periods set forth below:

Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s use of debt directly exposes it to interest rate risk. The Company’s policy is to manage interest rate risk through the use of a combination of fixed and floating rate debt. Interest rate swaps may be used to adjust interest rate exposure when appropriate. In August 2007, the Company entered into a 3-year interest rate swap agreement in the notional amount of $50 million with BNP to hedge its exposure to the floating interest rate on the $50 million second lien term loan. The swap converted the debt’s floating three month LIBOR base to 4.86% fixed base. This swap on $50 million will yield an effective interest rate of 11.86% for the period from August 23, 2007 through August 23, 2010, on the second lien term loan.

The following table sets forth the Company’s principal financing obligation and the related interest rates as of September 30, 2007:

	Expected Maturity		Average Interest Rate as of September 30, 2007		Principal Outstanding
Short-term bank borrowings		Revolving		Variable – 7.75%	$	-

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic 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, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of September 30, 2007, and have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level. Our CEO and CFO believe that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, do not expect that our internal controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. In addition, any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls is subject to risks that those internal controls may become inadequate in future periods because of changes in business conditions, or because the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures deteriorates.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our management continues to review our internal controls and procedures and the effectiveness of those controls. In the fourth quarter of 2006, the Company formally initiated the process of documenting internal controls over financial reporting in an effort to be in compliance with the evaluation and reporting requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 Section 404 by December 31, 2007.
