A Note About Forward Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are based on management’s
current expectations. These statements may be identified by their use of words like “plans,” “expect,”
“aim,” “believe,” “projects,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,”
“will,” “should,” “could,” and other expressions that indicate future events and trends. All
statements that address expectations or projections about the future, including statements about our business strategy, expenditures,
and financial results, are forward-looking statements. We believe that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking
statements are accurate. However, we cannot assure the reader that such expectations will occur.
Actual results could differ materially from those in the forward-looking
statements due to a number of uncertainties including, but not limited to, those discussed in Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Factors that could cause future results to differ from these
expectations include general economic conditions; further changes in our business direction or strategy; competitive factors;
market uncertainties; and an inability to attract, develop, or retain consulting or managerial agents or independent contractors. As
a result, the identification and interpretation of data and other information and their use in developing and selecting assumptions
from and among reasonable alternatives requires the exercise of judgment. To the extent that the assumed events do
not occur, the outcome may vary substantially from anticipated or projected results, and accordingly, no opinion is expressed
on the achievability of those forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given that any of the assumptions relating
to the forward-looking statements specified in the following information are accurate, and we assume no obligation to update any
such forward-looking statements. The reader should not unduly rely on these forward-looking statements, which speak
only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. Except as required by law, we are not obligated to release publicly any
revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this report or to
reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements (Unaudited)
As of March 31, 2015 and December
31, 2014 and
For the Three-Month Periods Ended
March 31, 2015 and 2014
| 1. | Description of Business |
American Eagle Energy Corporation (the “Company”)
was incorporated in the state of Nevada in March 2003 under the name Golden Hope Resources Corp. In July 2005, the Company changed
its name to Eternal Energy Corp. In December 2011, the Company changed its name to American Eagle Energy Corporation, in connection
with its acquisition of, and merger with, American Eagle Energy Inc.
The Company engages in the acquisition, exploration
and development of oil and gas properties, and is primarily focused on extracting proved oil reserves from those properties. As
of March 31, 2015, the Company had entered into participation agreements related to oil and gas exploration and development projects
in the Spyglass Area, located in Divide County, North Dakota, and Sheridan County, Montana. In addition, the Company owns working
interests in mineral leases located in Richland, Roosevelt and Toole Counties in Montana.
| 2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Interim Financial Information
The unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial statements in accordance with Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary
for the fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 are not
necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2015. The condensed, consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
The December
31, 2014 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from audited financial statements. The auditor’s opinion that accompanied
the December 31, 2014 consolidated financial statements contained an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, AMZG, Inc., EERG Energy ULC (Canadian) and AEE
Canada Inc. (Canadian). All material intercompany accounts, transactions and profits have been eliminated.
As of March 31,
2015, the Company has a working capital deficit of approximately $184.4 million, which includes the classification of the Company’s
Bonds as current liabilities (See Note 9). In addition, the Company is in default under the terms of the Indenture related to its
outstanding Bonds, as a result of paying only a portion of the interest that was due on the Bonds as of March 31, 2015.
American Eagle Energy Corporation
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements (Unaudited)
As of March 31, 2015 and December
31, 2014 and
For the Three-Month Periods Ended
March 31, 2015 and 2014
The sharp decline
in oil prices that occurred during the latter part of 2014, and the continued depressed pricing, has materially reduced the revenues
that were generated from the sale of the Company’s oil and gas production volumes during that period, which, in turn, negatively
affected the Company’s year-end working capital balance. The potential for future oil prices to remain at their current price
levels for an extended period of time raises substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
For purposes of this discussion, the term “substantial doubt” refers to concerns that a company may not be able to
meet its obligations when they come due.
Should the prevailing oil prices as of March 31, 2015
remain in effect for an extended period of time, it is likely that the Company would need to pursue some form of asset sale, debt
restructuring or capital raising effort in order to fund its operations and to service its existing debt during the next twelve
months. The Company’s management is actively developing plans to improve its working capital position and/or to reduce its
future debt service costs, through the aforementioned means, in order to remain a going concern for the foreseeable future. If
the Company is unable to restructure its Bonds, obtain additional debt or equity financing or achieve adequate proceeds from the
sale of assets, the Company may file a voluntary petition for reorganization relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in
order to provide additional time to identify an appropriate solution to its financial situation and to implement a plan of reorganization
aimed at improving its capital structure.

The fair value of substantially all securities is
determined by quoted market prices. There were no sales of marketable securities during the three-month periods ended March 31,
2015 and 2014.
Fair value is the price that would be received from
the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Hierarchy Levels 1,
2 or 3 are terms for the priority of inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Hierarchy Level 1 inputs are quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Hierarchy Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included
within Level 1 that are directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability. Hierarchy Level 3 inputs are inputs that
are not observable in the market.
The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments,
measured on a recurring basis at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, were as follows (in thousands):

Purchase of Oil and Gas Properties
In March 2014, the Company exercised its option to
purchase additional net revenue and working interests in proved producing and proved undeveloped properties located within the
Spyglass Area from a certain working interest partner. The transaction closed on March 26, 2014 with an effective date of June
1, 2013. The gross purchase price for the acquired interests totaled $47.0 million. The net purchase price, after taking into consideration
revenues and operating expenses associated with the acquired interests from the period June 1, 2013 through the closing date, totaled
approximately $41.4 million. The acquisition of the additional net revenue and working interests was funded with proceeds received
from a March 2014 public offering, as discussed in Note 13).
Supplemental Pro Forma Information (Unaudited)
The Company’s condensed consolidated
statement of income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 includes revenues and oil and gas operating expenses
related to the net revenue and working interests acquired via the exercise of the purchase option. Had the purchase of these
additional net revenue and working interests occurred on January 1, 2014, the Company’s consolidated financial
statements for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 would have been as follows (in thousands):
Pro forma revenues | |

Also in March 2014, the Company acquired certain undeveloped
acreage from the same working interest partner at a price of approximately $7.5 million.
Sales of Oil and Gas Properties
In January 2015,
the Company sold its net revenue and working interests in certain non-operated wells to SM Energy. Cash proceeds received from
the sale totaled approximately $9.5 million.
Impairment of
Oil and Gas Properties
Pursuant to full
cost accounting rules, and as a result of the sharp decline in oil prices during the fourth quarter of 2014 and the first quarter
of 2015, the Company recognized impairment expenses related to its oil and gas properties, subject to amortization, of approximately
$40.0 million during the three-month period ended March 31, 2015. Impairment of oil and gas properties represents a non-cash charge
against the Company’s earnings. Because SEC rules require proved oil and gas reserves to be valued using an unweighted arithmetic
average of oil and gas prices on the first day of each month for the preceding twelve-month period, and because forecasted oil
prices for 2015 may be lower than what was experienced during 2014, it is likely that we will recognize additional impairments
during 2015 that will be material to our financial results.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements (Unaudited)
As of March 31, 2015 and December
31, 2014 and
For the Three-Month Periods Ended
March 31, 2015 and 2014
In August 2013, the Company entered into a Carry agreement
(the “Carry Agreement”) with the a third-party working interest partner (the “Carry Agreement Partner”),
pursuant to which (i) that Carry Agreement Partner agreed to fund 100% of the Company’s working interest share of the drilling
and completion costs of up to five new oil and gas wells to be located within the Spyglass Area, up to 120% of the original AFE
amount, and (ii) the Company agreed to convey, for a limited duration, 50% of its revenue interest in the pre-payout revenues of
each carried well and 50% of its working interest in the pre-payout operating costs of each carried well, to the Carry Agreement
Partner. In the event that the gross drilling and completion cost of a carried well exceeds 120% of the AFE amount, the Company
and the Carry Agreement Partner will share in the excess costs based on the working interests stipulated in the Carry Agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Carry Agreement, 50%
of the Company’s net revenue interest in each well will be conveyed to the Carry Agreement Partner for a period of two years
or until such a time when the working interest partner has recouped 112% of the carried drilling and completion costs of the well,
whichever occurs sooner. In the event that the Carry Agreement Partner has not recouped 112% of the carried drilling and
completion costs by the end of the second year of production, the Company has agreed to make cash payments to the Carry Agreement
Partner in the amount of the shortfall. Once the Carry Agreement Partner has recouped 112% of the carried drilling and completion
costs of a well, the conveyed working interest and net revenue interest will revert to the Company.
As of March 31, 2015, all five of the wells to be
drilled pursuant to the Carry Agreement have been completed. To date, the Company has received approximately $19.2 million of funding
under the Carry Agreement. This amount is net of cumulative revenues and oil and gas operating costs associated with the carried
wells, which were conveyed to the Carry Agreement Partner pursuant to the terms of the Carry Agreement. As noted above, the Carry
Agreement Partner is entitled to receive a 12% return on the amount of capitalized drilling and completion costs that it has funded
on the Company’s behalf.
As of March 31, 2015, the cost of drilling and completing
one of the five wells exceeded the 120% of AFE cost threshold. Accordingly, the Company has recorded its portion of excess drilling
and completion costs associated with this well, totaling approximately $2.8 million as of March 31, 2015. None of the five wells
covered by the Second Carry Agreement has achieved payout as of March 31, 2015.
In August 2013,
the Company entered into a Farm-Out Agreement (the “Farm-Out Agreement”) with the same Carry Agreement Partner, pursuant
to which (i) that Carry Agreement Partner agreed to fund 100% of the Company’s working interest share of the drilling and
completion costs of up to six new oil and gas wells to be located within the original Spyglass and West Spyglass sections of the
Spyglass Property and (ii) the Company will convey, for a period of time, 100% of its net revenue interest in the pre-payout revenues
of each farm-out well and 100% of its working interest in the pre-payout operating costs of each farm-out well, to the Carry Agreement
Partner, until such a time when the Carry Agreement Partner has recouped 112% of the drilling and completion costs associated with
each well. Once the Carry Agreement Partner has recouped 112% of the drilling and completion costs of a well, the Carry Agreement
Partner will convey 30% of the Company’s original working and net revenue interests in each farm-out well back to the Company.

For the Three-Month Periods Ended
March 31, 2015 and 2014
As of March 31, 2015, all six of the wells drilled
pursuant to the Farm-Out Agreement have been completed. None of the six wells covered by the Farm-Out Agreement has achieved payout
as of March 31, 2015.
In August 2013, the Company entered into a $200 million
credit facility with Morgan Stanley Capital Group (the “Credit Facility”), which was comprised of a $68 million initial
term loan (the “Initial Term Loan”), a $40 million term loan to be used to fund certain working interest purchases
(the “Spyglass Tranche A Loan”) and an uncommitted term loan of up to $92 million (the “Tranche B Loan”).
The Credit Facility was collateralized by, among other things, the Company’s oil and gas properties and future oil and gas
sales derived from such properties.
In July 2014, the Company borrowed approximately
$2.2 million in connection with the amendment of certain financial covenants contained in the original Credit Facility agreement.
In August 2014, the Company repaid all amounts then-outstanding
under the Credit Facility with funds received from the issuance of certain bonds (see Note 9).
The Credit Facility had a five-year term and carried
a variable interest rate ranging from approximately 5.5% to 10.5%. Interest expense related to the Credit Facility totaled approximately
$2.8 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014.
The Company incurred investment banking fees and
closing costs totaling approximately $7.8 million in connection with the negotiation and closing of the Credit Facility. The Company
capitalized these items as deferred financing costs, and began amortizing these costs over the life of the Credit Facility using
the effective interest method. The amortization of deferred financing costs is included as a component of the Company’s interest
expense for the period. The Company amortized approximately $380,000 of deferred financing costs related to the Credit Facility
during the three-month period ended March 31, 2014.
In August 2014, the Company issued a series of 11%
secured bonds (the “Bonds”) through a Rule 144A / Regulation S private offering. The Bonds mature on September 1, 2019
and have an aggregate gross value of $175 million. The Bonds were issued at a discount (99.059%), resulting in a discount of approximately
$1.6 million. Net proceeds received from the issuance of the Bonds approximated $167.3 million, net of the bond discount, investment
banking fees and closing costs. A portion of the net proceeds received from the issuance of the Bonds was used to repay in full
the then-outstanding balance of the Credit Facility (see Note 8). The Company is amortizing the bond discount over the life of
the bonds using the effective interest method. Amortization of the Bond discount totaled approximately $83,000 for the three-month
period ended March 31, 2015.
The Bonds bear interest at a rate of 11% annually.
Interest on the Bonds is payable in arrears each March 1st and September 1st. Interest expense related to
the Bonds totaled approximately $4.8 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015.

For the Three-Month Periods Ended
March 31, 2015 and 2014
On March 1, 2015, the Company elected to defer the
payment of approximately $9.8 million of interest due on the bonds. The terms of the Bond Indenture provide for a 30-day grace
period, during which the interest payment can be paid without triggering an event of default. The Company did not pay the interest
due on the Bonds prior to the expiration of the 30-day grace period. As a result, the Company is in default under the terms of
the Bond Indenture as of March 31, 2015.
On April 2, 2015, the Company entered into a Forbearance
Agreement with four holders (the “Ad Hoc Group”) who collectively own or manage in excess of 50% of the par value of
the Bonds. Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Agreement, the Company paid $4.0 million of the interest that was due on the
Bonds as of March 1, 2015. The terms of the Forbearance Agreement prevent the holders of the Bonds from exercising their right
to call the Bonds for a period of 45 days (the “Forbearance Period”). Unless amended, the Forbearance Period will expire
on May 15, 2015. Given the existence of an event of default as of the date of these financial statements, and the uncertainty with
respect to whether the Company will be able to pay the remaining interest due on the Bonds prior to expiration of the Forbearance
Period, the Company has classified the Bonds as a current liability on its balance sheets as of March 31, 2015 and December 31,
2014.
The Company incurred investment banking fees and
closing costs totaling approximately $7.2 million in connection with the issuance of the Bonds. The Company has capitalized these
items as deferred financing costs, and is amortizing these costs over the life of the Bonds using the effective interest method.
The amortization of deferred financing costs is included as a component of the Company’s interest expense for the period.
The Company amortized deferred financing costs related to the Bonds of approximately $369,000 for the three-month period ended
March 31, 2015.
The Bond Indenture contains customary affirmative
and negative covenants for financial instruments of this nature, including limitations on the Company with respect to dividends,
distributions and additional future borrowings. The Company was not in compliance with all covenants required by the Bond Indenture
as of March 31, 2015. The Bonds are secured by a second priority lien on virtually all of the Company’s assets.
The Bonds traded on the open market at a significant
discount during the first quarter of 2015. On March 18, 2015, the date of the last recorded public trade of the bonds during the
three-month period ended March 31, 2015, Bonds with an aggregate par value of $1.0 million were traded at a discounted price of
$0.32 on the dollar, which suggests that the aggregate fair market value of the Bonds outstanding as of March 31, 2015 might be
approximately $56.0 million. The actual trade price represents a Hierarchy Level 1 input for the purpose of estimating fair market
value.
| 10. | Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility |
In August 2014, the Company entered into a Senior
Secured Credit Facility (the “Senior Credit Facility”) with SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc. (“SunTrust”),
which provided for the initial availability of up to $35 million of borrowing capacity. The borrowing capacity of the Senior Credit
Facility was to be periodically evaluated and adjusted based on, among other things, the discounted value of the Company’s
oil and gas reserves. Given falling oil prices throughout the fourth quarter of 2014, SunTrust elected to perform a borrowing capacity
redetermination as of December 31, 2014, at which time the borrowing capacity was reduced to zero. The Senior Credit Facility was
terminated on March 31, 2015 at SunTrust’s request. At no time did the Company borrow funds under the Senior Credit Facility.

As of March 31, 2015 and December

For the Three-Month Periods Ended
March 31, 2015 and 2014
The Company incurred investment banking fees and
closing costs totaling approximately $779,000 in connection with the establishment of the Senior Credit Facility. The Company capitalized
these items as deferred financing costs, and began amortizing these costs over the life of the Senior Credit Facility using a method
that approximates the effective interest method. The amortization of deferred financing costs is included as a component of the
Company’s interest expense for the period. The Company amortized approximately $39,000 of deferred financing costs related
to the Bonds during the three-month period ended March 31, 2015. Upon the termination of the Senior Credit Facility on March 31,
2015, the Company wrote-off the remaining, unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the Senior Credit Facility, which
totaled approximately $689,000.
The Senior Credit Facility contained customary affirmative
and negative covenants for borrowings of this type, including limitations on the Company with respect to transactions with affiliates,
hedging agreements, dividends and distributions, operations in respect of the property that secures its collective obligations
under the Senior Credit Facility, indebtedness, investments, and changes in business. The Senior Credit Facility also contained
a number of financial covenants, including the maintaining of a current ratio of no less than 1.0 and a ratio of total debt to
EBITDAX of no more than 4.0. The Company was not in compliance with these covenants prior to the termination of the Senior Credit
Facility on March 31, 2015 or for the period ended March 31, 2015.
| 11. | Price Swap Derivatives |
As a condition of the Credit Facility (see Note 8),
the Company was required to enter into commodity price swap agreements covering up to 85% of its projected five-year future production
on its proved, developed, producing properties. The Company did not designate the price swap agreements as hedges. Accordingly,
management elected not to apply hedge accounting to these derivatives but, instead, recognized the changes in the fair value of
the price swap agreements in its statement of operations in the period in which such unrealized changes in fair value occur. The
Company recognized unrealized losses on the price swaps associated with the Credit Facility of approximately $1.8 million for the
three-month period ended March 31, 2014. The price swap agreements were fully settled in August 2014 in conjunction with the full-repayment
of the then-outstanding balance of the Credit Facility (see Note 8).
| 12. | Asset Retirement Obligation |
The Company has recorded asset retirement obligations,
which represent the discounted future plugging and abandonment costs for operated and non-operated wells located within its Spyglass
Property. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the consolidated discounted value of the Company’s asset retirement
obligations was approximately $1.4 million. The projected plugging dates for wells in which the Company owns a working interest
ranges from December 31, 2015 to December 2034.
Reverse Split
In March
2014, the Company completed a 1-for-4 reverse split of its common stock.
Public Offering
In March 2014, the Company sold 12,650,000 shares
of its common stock in a public offering at a price of $6.60 per share. The sale of stock was completed pursuant to the Company’s
December 2013 shelf registration. Proceeds from the sale, net of expenses, broker fees and commissions, totaled approximately $78.3
million.

Shares Reserved for Future Issuance
As of March 31,
2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company had reserved 1,991,150 shares for future issuance upon exercise of outstanding options.
The Company recognized
stock-based compensation expense associated with its outstanding stock options of approximately $364,000 and $454,000 for the three-month
periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Because the Company
recognized a net loss for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the calculation of diluted loss per share is the
same as the calculation of basis loss per share, as the effect of including any incremental shares from the assumed exercise of
dilutive stock options would be anti-dilutive. The number of anti-dilutive shares that have been excluded from the calculation
of diluted loss per share for the three month-periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 is approximately 12.4 million and 648,000,
respectively.
| 15. | Related Party Transactions |
The Company is under contract through February 2016
to sell 100% of its oil, gas and liquids production to Power Energy Partners LP (“Power Energy”) at prevailing market
rates. As of March 31, 2015, Power Energy holds 2,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
The Company’s Chairman and its Chief Operating
Officer each owns overriding royalty interests in certain of the Company’s operated wells. The overriding royalty interests
were obtained prior the Company’s acquisition of AEE, Inc. in December 2011. Aggregate royalties paid to these individuals
totaled approximately $84,000 and $335,000 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THE FOLLOWING PRESENTATION OF OUR MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS
REPORT.
A Note About Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains
“forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are based
on current management’s expectations. These statements may be identified by their use of words like “plans,”
“expect,” “aim,” “believe,” “projects,” “anticipate,” “intend,”
“estimate,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and other expressions that indicate future
events and trends. All statements that address expectations or projections about the future, including statements about our business
strategy, expenditures, and financial results are forward-looking statements. We believe that the expectations reflected in such
forward-looking statements are accurate. However, we cannot assure the reader that such expectations will occur.
Actual results could differ materially from
those in the forward-looking statements due to a number of uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those discussed in this
section. Factors that could cause future results to differ from these expectations include general economic conditions, such as
further changes in our business direction or strategy, competitive factors and an inability to attract, develop, or retain technical,
consulting, or managerial agents or independent contractors, as well as economic conditions specific to the oil and gas industry,
such as the availability of drilling rigs and crews, uncertainty with respect to future oil and gas prices and potential government
regulation over drilling and completion techniques. As a result, the identification and interpretation of data and other information
and their use in developing and selecting assumptions from and among reasonable alternatives requires the exercise of judgment.
To the extent that the assumed events do not occur, the outcome may vary substantially from anticipated or projected results, and,
accordingly, no opinion is expressed on the achievability of those forward-looking statements. No assurance can be given that any
of the assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements specified in the following information are accurate, and we assume
no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. The reader should not unduly rely on these forward-looking statements,
which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report, except as required by law; we are not obligated to release publicly any
revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report
or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Industry Outlook
The petroleum industry is highly competitive
and subject to significant volatility due to numerous market forces. Crude oil and natural gas prices are affected by market fundamentals
such as weather, inventory levels, competing fuel prices, overall demand, and the availability of supply.
Oil prices cannot be predicted with any
certainty and have significantly affected profitability and returns for upstream producers. Historically, West Texas Intermediate
(“WTI”) crude oil prices have averaged approximately $90.46 per barrel over the past five years, per the U.S. Energy
Information Administration. However, during that time, WTI oil prices have experienced wide fluctuations in prices, ranging from
a high of $113.39 per barrel in May 2011 to a low of $43.39 per barrel in March 2015, with the median price of $93.47 per barrel.
The daily WTI oil prices averaged approximately $48.49 and $98.68 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Oil prices fell dramatically during the fourth quarter of 2014 and continued to be depressed throughout the first quarter of 2015,
primarily as a result of oversupply and global economic pressures from middle-eastern oil producing countries.
While local supply/demand fundamentals are
a decisive factor affecting domestic natural gas prices over the long term, day-to-day prices may be more volatile in the futures
markets and other exchanges, making it difficult to forecast prices with any degree of confidence. In addition, prolonged declines
in oil and gas prices may ultimately result in the additional impairment of our oil and gas properties, cause the operation of
certain oil and gas wells to become uneconomic and adversely impact our liquidity.
Company Overview
The address of our principal executive office
is 2549 W. Main Street, Suite 202, Littleton, Colorado, 80120. Our telephone number is 303-798-5235. Our current operations consist
of 19 full-time employees.
As of November 20, 2013, our common stock
has been listed on the NYSE MKT LLC under the symbol “AMZG.” Prior to that, it was quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board
and the OTC Markets Group Inc.’s OTCQX tier under the symbol “AMZG”.
Our Company was incorporated in the State
of Nevada under the name “Golden Hope Resources Corp.” on July 25, 2003 and is engaged in the acquisition, exploration,
and development of natural resource properties of merit. On November 7, 2005, we filed documents with the Nevada Secretary of State
to change our name to “Eternal Energy Corp.” by way of a merger with our wholly-owned subsidiary, Eternal Energy Corp.,
which was formed solely to facilitate the name change. In December 2011, we again filed documents with the Nevada Secretary of
state to change our name to “American Eagle Energy Corporation”, in conjunction with our acquisition of, and merger
with, American Eagle Energy Inc.
During the past five years, we have engaged
in exploration and production activities in both the northern United States, as well as southeastern Saskatchewan, Canada. In July
2014, we sold all of our net revenue and working interests in our Canadian oil and gas properties. As of March 31, 2015, we are
engaged in exploration and production activities in the northwest portion of Divide County, North Dakota, where we target the extraction
of oil and natural gas reserves from the Three Forks and Middle Bakken formations. We have aggressively pursued the development
of our Spyglass Area, to which virtually all of our capital has been or is being deployed. Our Spyglass Area generated 100% and
98% of our revenue for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, and represents 100% of our estimated remaining proved
reserves as of March 31, 2015.
In addition to our existing wells, we own
undeveloped acreage interests located in Sheridan, Daniels and Richland Counties, Montana. We currently do not plan to devote capital
to any of these areas over the next twelve months.
Oil & Gas Wells
We are primarily focused on drilling and
completing wells located within our Spyglass Area, located in northwestern Divide County, North Dakota. As of March 31, 2015, we
had drilled and completed 54 gross (32.2 net) operated wells in our Spyglass Property, all of which were producing, and were in
the process of completing two additional wells. An additional 2 gross (1.9 net) wells have been drilled and are awaiting completion.
We own working interests in our operated
wells ranging from approximately 5% to 100%, with an average working interest of approximately 60%. Of the producing wells, 39
gross (25.0 net) operated wells were producing from the Three Forks formation and 15 gross (7.2 net) operated wells were producing
from the Middle Bakken formation. We did not add any operated wells to production during the three-month period ended March 31,
2015.
Historically, we have elected to participate
as a non-operating working interest partner in the drilling of 81 gross (4.2 net) wells within the Spyglass Area, all of which
were producing as of December 31, 2014. In January 2015, we sold our net revenue and working interests in 25 gross (0.7 net) non-operated
wells to SM Energy. Our working interest ownership in the remaining non-operated wells ranges from less than 1% to approximately
28%, with an average working interest of approximately 6%.

Our capital expenditures related to exploration
and well development totaled approximately $3.0 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015. The cost of drilling and completing
a successful well is dependent on a number of factors, including, among other things, the vertical depth of the well, the lateral
length of the well, the geological zone targeted for development, the methods used to complete the well and the weather conditions
at the time the well is drilled and completed. In general, our costs of drilling wells that we operate has decreased over time
as a result of more efficient drilling operations, which decreased the average number of days it takes for us to reach total depth
on our wells.
Oil and Gas Reserves
We estimate that our proved developed oil
and gas reserves as of March 31, 2015 were approximately 5.6 million barrels of oil equivalent (“BOE”). Based on SEC
pricing guidelines, which utilize a non-weighted average of the average monthly oil and gas prices for the preceding twelve-month
period, the estimated pre-tax value of our proved oil and gas reserves, discounted at an annual rate of 10% (“PV10”)
was approximately $135.6 million as of March 31, 2015, compared to approximately $178.5 million as of December 31, 2014. The decrease
is primarily due to the significant decline in oil prices from the first quarter of 2014 to the first quarter of 2015. The average
oil and gas prices used to estimate our proved oil and gas reserves as of March 31, 2015 were $78.48 and $3.45, respectively, compared
to $82.36 and $5.08, respectively, as of December 31, 2014.
The sharp decline in oil prices
significantly impacted both the reserve volume and PV10 value of our proved, undeveloped properties, as lower prices
negatively affect the economic viability of drilling future wells. Based on SEC pricing guidelines, the PV10 value of our
proved undeveloped reserves fell from approximately $49.5 million as of December 31, 2014 to approximately $39.4 million at
March 31, 2015. The decrease in the our proved undeveloped reserves from December 31, 2014 to March 31, 2015 is primarily due
to uncertainty regarding whether or not we will have sufficient capital to support our current development plan.
Historically, we have utilized carry agreements and farm-out agreements to accelerate the drilling of operated wells. The
PV10 value of our proved undeveloped reserves as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 has been determined based on the
assumption that we will continue to utilize such arrangements in the future in order to continue our planned drilling
activities. Accordingly, as of both dates, we have reduced our net revenue and working interests in the future wells
that comprise our proved undeveloped reserves by 50% in consideration of the anticipated terms of such arrangements.
Overall, our total proved reserves volumes
decreased from approximately 10.9 MBOE at December 31, 2014 to approximately 9.8 MBOE at March 31, 2015, primarily as a result
of the current period production and the sale of our net revenue and working interests in certain non-operated wells during the
period. The PV10 value of our total proved oil and gas reserves decreased from approximately $228.0 million at December 31, 2014
to approximately $175.0 million at March 31, 2015, primarily as a result of the aforementioned decline in oil prices.
PV10 is a standard, non-GAAP measure that
is used within the oil and gas industry to value an entity’s proved oil and gas reserves, based on estimated future cash
flows.
Operating Results
For the purpose of furthering the reader’s
understanding of the results of our operations, we have elected to present certain non-GAAP financial measures that are commonly
used by management and external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies,
to analyze the results of our operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. Specific non-GAAP financial
measures presented include Adjusted Net Earnings, Adjusted Net Earnings per Share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Cash Flow from
Operations. A description of each non-GAAP financial measure presented is provided below.
We define Adjusted Net Earnings as net income
excluding any loss from the impairment of oil and gas properties and changes in the fair value of our outstanding commodity derivatives.
We believe that this financial measure is meaningful because it excludes the effects of non-cash items that are primarily based
on predicted future commodity prices, over which management has no control.
Adjusted Net Earnings per Share is calculated
by dividing Adjusted Net Earnings by the weighted average shares of our common stock that were outstanding for the period. GAAP
requires the use of basic weighted average shares outstanding for the period to calculate both basic and diluted net loss per share
for periods in which an entity recognizes a net loss, as the use of the diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the period
would have an anti-dilutive effect. In the event that, for a given period, we recognize a net loss (GAAP basis), but Adjusted Net
Earnings (non-GAAP basis), we also present Adjusted Net Earnings Per Share (non-GAAP basis) on both a basic and diluted basis using
the appropriate weighted average shares outstanding figure as the denominator.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income
before depletion, depreciation and amortization, impairment of oil and natural gas properties, asset retirement obligation accretion
expense, gain (loss) on derivative activities, net cash receipts (payments) on settled derivative instruments, premiums (paid)
received on options that settled during the period, interest expense, and income tax expense.
Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful
because it allows management to evaluate our operating performance more effectively and compare the results of our operations from
period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure. We exclude the items listed above from net income
(loss) in arriving at Adjusted EBITDA because these amounts can vary substantially from company to company within our industry
depending upon accounting methods and book values of assets, capital structures, and the methods by which the assets were acquired.
Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, net income (loss) as determined in accordance
with GAAP or as an indicator of our operating performance or liquidity.
Certain items excluded from Adjusted EBITDA
are significant components in understanding and assessing a company’s financial performance, such as a company’s cost
of capital and tax structure, as well as the historic costs of depreciable assets, none of which is a component of Adjusted EBITDA.
The Adjusted EBITDA presented below may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies, and may not
be identical to corresponding measures used in the our various agreements, including the agreements governing the Senior Credit
Facility. We have included a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure,
below.
We believe that Adjusted Cash Flow from
Operations is a meaningful financial measure because it excludes the majority of non-cash charges from EBITDA, yet includes the
portion of interest expense that is paid in cash, thus providing a measurement of our ability to service our debt.

revenue, production data, and operating expenses for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014:

Results of Operations for the three-month period ended
March 31, 2015 vs March 31, 2014
In July 2014, we sold all of our Canadian
net revenue and working interests, resulting in a loss on the sale of oil and gas properties of approximately $12,000. Oil and
gas sales from our Canadian properties accounted for less than 1% of our consolidated oil and gas sales for the year ended December
31, 2014, and less than 3% of our consolidated oil and gas sales for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Revenues from the sale of oil, natural gas
and liquids totaled approximately $6.9 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, compared to approximately $12.5
million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014, a decrease of 45%. This decrease was driven primarily by an 8% increase
in production by volume, which was partially offset by a 54% decline in oil prices, after considering the effects of settled derivatives.
Our wells continue to be primarily oil-producing wells, with 99% of total revenues for the three-month periods ended March 31,
2015 and 2014 resulting from oil sales. Our average daily production for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, calculated
on a barrel of oil equivalent basis, was 1,942 BOEPD, compared to 1,645 BOEPD for 2014. Production volumes increased primarily
due to the addition of 19 gross (12.2 net) operated wells to production within the Williston Basin since April 1, 2014. For the
three-month period ended March 31, 2015, our average realized price per barrel of oil was $39.48 compared to an average realized
price of $87.10 ($87.92, after considering the effects of settled derivatives) per barrel for the three-month period ended March
31, 2014.
Lease operating expenses totaled approximately
$2.8 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 compared to approximately $2.3 million for the three-month period
ended March 31, 2014. On a per-unit basis, LOE increased from $15.36 per BOE for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 to
$15.91 per BOE for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015.
Production taxes totaled approximately $794,000
for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, compared to approximately $1.4 million for the three-month period ended March
31, 2014. Production taxes, as a percentage of total revenues were approximately 11.6% and 11.0% for three-month periods ended
March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
General and administrative expenses,
excluding stock based compensation, totaled approximately $2.0 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015,
compared to approximately $1.6 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014. The increase in general
and administrative expenses is primarily due to additional legal and investment banking fees incurred during the first
quarter of 2015 related to potential debt restructuring activities. Included in general and administrative expenses is
stock-based compensation totaling approximately $364,000 and $454,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015 and
2014, respectively. Stock-based compensation is a non-cash charge to earnings.
Depletion, depreciation and amortization
expense totaled approximately $5,562 million ($31.82 per BOE) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, compared to approximately
$3.6 million ($24.56 per BOE) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014. Our depletion expense is based on the capitalized
costs related to oil and gas properties for which proved reserves have been assigned, plus the estimated future development costs
necessary to convert proved undeveloped reserves to proved producing reserves. Our gross capitalized costs related to amortizable
oil and gas properties, prior to any current period impairment adjustments, increased from approximately $193.3 million at March
31, 2014 to approximately $314 million at March 31, 2015. The increase in depletion expense was due primarily to the addition of
19 gross (12.2 net) operated wells to production since April 1, 2014 during that time, and the increase in estimated future development
costs for undeveloped wells that were added to the Company’s total proved reserves based on the addition of these wells.
Under full cost accounting rules, we were
required to write-down the value of our oil and gas properties, subject to amortization, as of March 31, 2015 by approximately
$40.0 million. The impairment was largely due to depressed oil prices, which reduced the average price used to value the Company’s
proved oil and gas reserves as of March 31, 2015. The impairment expense represents a non-cash charge against our earnings. Because
SEC rules require proved oil and gas reserves to be valued using an unweighted arithmetic average of oil and gas prices for the
preceding twelve-month period, and because forecasted oil prices for 2015 are projected to be lower than what was experienced during
2014, it is likely that we will recognized additional impairments during 2015 that will be material to our financial results.
In August 2014, we issued a series of 11%
secured bonds (the “Bonds”) through a Rule 144A / Regulation S private offering. Net proceeds received from the issuance
of the Bonds were approximately $167.3 million, net of the bond discount, investment banking fees and closing costs. We also incurred
legal and bond rating fees totaling approximately $1.0 million in connection with the issuance of the Bonds. A portion of the net
proceeds received from the issuance of the Bonds was used to repay in full the then-outstanding balance of the Credit Facility.
We recognized interest expense totaling
approximately $3.2 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 related to the amounts then-outstanding under the Credit
Facility. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2015, we recognized approximately $5.3 million and $700,000 of interest expense
associated with our outstanding Bonds and Senior Credit Facility, respectively.
Included in the aggregate interest expense
figures for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 is amortization of deferred financing costs of approximately
$1.1 million and $380,000 respectively. The 2015 interest expense figure also includes the amortization of the original Bond discount
of approximately $83,000. The amortization of the original issuance Bond discount and deferred financing costs are non-cash items.
The specific terms of the Bonds are discussed in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section, below.
In connection with Credit Facility, we were
required to enter into price swap agreements with Morgan Stanley Capital Group, Inc. (“ MSCG”) covering up to 85% of
the anticipated production from our estimated proved developed reserves over the remaining life of the MSCG Credit Facility. The
purpose of price swap agreements was to limit our potential exposure to falling oil prices. Sustained oil prices above the pre-determined
terms of our price-swap agreements resulted in realized and unrealized losses, while sustained oil prices below the pre-determined
terms of our price swap agreements resulted in realized and unrealized gains. The price swap agreements were considered derivatives
under generally accepted accounting principles. We recognized losses on the normal settlement of these monthly swap agreements
totaling approximately $116,000 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014. The price swap agreements were fully settled in
August 2014 in connection with the termination of the Credit Facility. We recognized unrealized losses totaling approximately $1.8
million resulting from the change in fair value of unsettled price swaps during the three-month period ended March 31, 2014. In
September 2014, we entered into new swap agreements covering approximately 55% of our expected oil production through December
2015. This swap agreement was cancelled in the fourth quarter of 2014.
We recognized an estimated income tax expense
of $19,000 and an estimated income tax benefit of approximately $638,000 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014,
respectively.
Our basic and diluted loss per share was
$1.66 and $0.06 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Because we recognized net losses for the
periods, diluted income per share is calculated using the basic weighted average number of weighted shares outstanding for the
period, as the effect of including potentially dilutive items would be anti-dilutive.
Our adjusted loss for the three-month period
ended March 31, 2015 was approximately $10.6 million, compared to an adjusted earnings of approximately $795,000 for the three-month
period ended March 31, 2014. Adjusted earnings is derived by adding back unrealized changes in fair value of commodity derivatives
(non-cash) to net income or adjusting for other non-recurring gains or losses during the period. Adjusted earnings is a non-GAAP
financial measure.
Our adjusted EBITDA for the three-month
periods ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was approximately $1.3 million and $7.4 million, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA represents
net earnings before interest income, dividend income, interest expense, income taxes, depletion, depreciation, and amortization,
non-cash expenses related to stock-based compensation, impairment of oil and gas properties, loss on early extinguishment of debt,
accretion of asset retirement obligations and changes in fair value of commodity derivatives (non-cash), and adjusted for other
non-recurring gains or losses during the period. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2015, our assets totaled
approximately $211.9 million, which included, among other items, cash balances of approximately $20.1 million, trade receivables
totaling approximately $8.9 million and marketable securities valued at approximately $741,000.
As of
March 31, 2015, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $184.4 million, which reflects the classification of approximately
$173.5 million of Bonds as current liabilities. The sharp decline in oil prices that occurred during the latter part of 2014, and
the continued depressed pricing, has materially reduced the revenues that were generated from the sale of our oil and gas production
volumes during that period, which, in turn, negatively affected our current working capital balance. The potential for future oil
prices to remain at their current price levels for an extended period of time raises substantial doubt regarding our ability to
continue as a going concern. Should the prevailing oil prices as of March 31, 2015 remain in effect for an extended period of time,
it is likely that we would need to pursue some form of asset sale, debt restructuring or capital raising effort in order to fund
our operations and to service our existing debt during the next twelve months. Our management is actively developing plans to improve
our working capital position and/or to reduce its future debt service costs, through the aforementioned means, in order to remain
a going concern for the foreseeable future. If we are unable to restructure our Bonds, obtain additional debt or equity financing
or achieve adequate proceeds from the sale of assets, we may file a voluntary petition for reorganization relief under Chapter
11 of the Bankruptcy Code in order to provide us with additional time to identify an appropriate solution to our financial situation
and to implement a plan of reorganization aimed at improving our capital structure.
As a
result of falling oil prices, we generated approximately $4.2 million of negative cash flow from our operations for the three-month
period ended March 31, 2015. This figure includes the non-cash accrual of approximately $4.8 million of interest associated with
our Bonds.
Our Bonds, which mature on September 1,
2019, carry an annual interest rate of 11% and are secured by second lien positions in substantially all of our assets. Interest
related to the Bonds is payable in arrears on March 1st and September 1st of each year until the bonds mature.
The Bond Indenture contains customary affirmative and negative covenants for financial instruments of this nature, including limitations
with respect to our ability to pay dividends, distributions and to secure additional future borrowings.
We elected to defer the payment of approximately
$9.8 million of interest on our Bonds that was due on March 2, 2015. The terms of the Bond Indenture provide for a 30-day cure
period, during which the interest payment could have been made without the late payment constituting an event of default. We did
not pay the interest due on the Bonds prior to the end of the 30-day grace period.
Because we did not make the required interest
payment on our Bonds prior to the expiration of the 30-day grace period, and pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles,
we have classified the Bonds as a current liability as of March 31, 2015. The failure to pay the full amount of interest that
was due on the bonds as of March 31, 2015 constitutes an event of default under the terms of the Bond Indenture.
On April 2, 2015, we entered into
a Forbearance Agreement with an Ad Hoc Group that represents four bondholders who collectively own or manage in excess of
50% of the par value of the Bonds. Also on April 2, 2015, pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Agreement, we paid
$4.0 million of the interest that was due on the Bonds as of March 1, 2015. The Forbearance Agreement expires on the earliest
to occur of (i) the occurrence of any Event of Default under subsections 6.01(10) or 6.01(11) of the Indenture or
the commencement of an involuntary proceeding or filing of an involuntary petition against our subsidiary or us under any
federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law, (ii) May 15, 2015 or (iii) the occurrence of a
forbearance default as defined by the Forbearance Agreement. During the forbearance period, (i) the Ad Hoc Group
has agreed to forbear from exercising certain of their default-related rights and remedies against our subsidiary and us and
to negotiate and effectuate restructuring of our financial affairs and (ii) we have agreed, among other items, to provide the
Ad Hoc Group with certain financial and related information on an on-going basis. We cannot provide any assurance as to the
form of any such potential restructuring, or its timing, or whether we will be able to restructure our financial affairs in
part or in full.
Although we do not have any current plans
to do so, it is possible that we may seek to borrow additional funds or to raise capital through the sale of additional shares
of our common stock at any time in the future, in order to fund future drilling activities, to develop our existing acreage further,
or to acquire acreage or interests in other oil and gas properties.
Litigation
As of March 31, 2015, we were not subject
to any material known, pending or threatened litigation.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
