Sentry Petroleum Ltd.
 (An Exploration Stage Company)
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
November 30, 2011
(Unaudited)


1.  Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

Sentry Petroleum Ltd. (the “Company”) is an Exploration Stage Company as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 7 “Accounting and Reporting By Development Stage Enterprises” incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on February 23, 2006 as Summit Exploration Inc. On December 3rd, 2007 the Company changed its name from Summit Exploration Inc. to Sentry Petroleum Ltd. The Company is engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas properties.

The Company has no revenues and has not generated any cash flows from operations to fund its acquisition, exploration and development activities. The Company intends to rely upon the issuance of equity securities to finance its oil and gas property acquisitions and exploration and development on acquired properties, however there can be no assurance it will be successful in raising the funds necessary, or that a self-supporting level of operations will ever be achieved. The likely outcome of these future events is indeterminable. As at November 30, 2011, the Company has accumulated losses since inception of $3,748,210.  These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustment to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of the assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

On April 15, 2008, the Company incorporated a subsidiary company, Sentry Petroleum (Australia) Pty. Ltd. in order to facilitate exploration activities in Australia.


2.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 
a.  Basis of Presentation
These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars.  The Company’s fiscal year-end is February 28.  While the information presented in the accompanying interim financial statements is unaudited, it includes all adjustments which are in the opinion of management, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim period presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

Although these interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as the Company’s February 28, 2011 annual financial statements, they do not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  Accordingly, it is suggested that these interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s February 28, 2011 annual financial statements.

b.  Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to donated services and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

c. Comprehensive Loss
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Code (“ASC”) topic 220 “Comprehensive Income” (formerly FAS 130), comprehensive income consists of net income and other gains and losses affecting stockholder’s equity that are excluded from net income, such as unrealized gains and losses on investments available for sale, foreign currency translation gains and losses and minimum pension liability. For the period ending November 30, 2011, the Company’s other comprehensive income represented foreign currency translation adjustments.

d. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.  As at November 30, 2011, the Company has $ Nil ($Nil in 2010) in cash equivalents.  As at November 30, 2011, $20,349 was deposited in accounts that were federally insured ($49,904 in February 28, 2011).

e. Oil and Gas Property
The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas operations whereby all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas properties will be capitalized in cost centers on a country-by-country basis.  These capitalized amounts include the costs of unproved properties, internal costs directly related to acquisitions, development and exploration activities, asset retirement costs and capitalized interest. They include geological and geophysical studies, and costs of drilling both productive and non-productive wells.  

Amortization will be calculated for producing properties by using the unit-of-production method based on proved reserves before royalties, as determined by management of the Company or independent consultants.  Unproved reserves are exempt from amortization and are subject to annual assessment as noted below. Sales of oil and gas properties will be accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs, without any gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas attributable to a cost center.  Costs of abandoned oil and gas properties will be accounted for as adjustments of capitalized cost and written off to expense.

A ceiling test will be applied to each cost center by comparing the net capitalized costs to the present value of the estimated future net revenue from production of proved reserves, based on commodity prices in effect as at the Company’s year-end and based on current operating costs, discounted by 10%, less the effects of future costs to develop and produce the proved reserves, plus the lower of costs or estimated fair value of unproved properties net of impairment, and less the effects of income taxes.  Any excess capitalized costs are written off to operations.

Unproved properties will be assessed for impairment on an annual basis by applying factors that rely on historical experience. In general, the Company may write-off any unproved property under one or more of the following conditions:
i)           there are no firm plans for further drilling on the unproved property;
ii)          negative results were obtained from studies of unproved property;
iii)         negative results were obtained from studies conducted in the vicinity of the unproved property; or
 
iv)
the remaining term of the unproved property does not allow sufficient time for further studies or drilling.

f.  Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company will recognize a liability for future asset retirement obligations associated with oil and gas properties.  The estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation will be based on current cost escalated at an inflation rate and discounted at a credit adjusted risk-free rate.  This liability will be capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset and amortized over its useful life.  The liability will accrete until the Company settles the obligation.  As of November 30, 2011, the Company did not have any asset retirement obligations.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

g. Fair Value Measurements
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, for all financial instruments and non-financial instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis.  ASC 820 establishes a single definition of fair value and a framework for measuring fair value, sets out a fair value hierarchy to be used to classify the source of information used in fair value measurement and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under other accounting pronouncements. It does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value.

The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and credit risk.  The Company has adopted ASC 825, “Financial Instruments”, which allows companies to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not required to be measured at fair value. The Company has not elected the fair value option for any eligible financial instruments.
 
 
h. Financial Instruments and Risk
Financial instruments, which include cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and amounts due to a related party were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary’s operations are in Australia, which may result in exposure to market risks from changes in currency rates. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.  

i.  Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s functional currency is US dollars. Foreign currency balances are translated into US dollars as follows:

Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the period-end exchange rate. Non-monetary assets are translated at the rate of exchange in effect at their acquisition, unless such assets are carried at market or nominal value, in which case they are translated at the period-end exchange rate. Revenue and expense items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.

The functional currency of the wholly owned subsidiary is Australian dollars. The assets and liabilities arising from these operations are translated at current exchange rates and related revenues and expenses at the exchange rates in effect at the time the revenue or expense is incurred. Resulting translation adjustments, if material, are accumulated as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders’ deficit while foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in operations.

j.  Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted net income (loss) per share on the potential exercise of the equity-based financial instruments is not presented where anti-dilutive.

k.  Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, all expected future events other than enactment of changes in the tax laws or rates are considered.

Due to the uncertainty regarding the Company’s future profitability, the future tax benefits of its losses have been fully allowed for and no net tax benefit has been recorded in the financial statements during the periods presented.

2.      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

l.  Stock-based Compensation
On the Company’s inception of February 23, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of ASC topic 718 “Stock Compensation” (formerly FAS 123(R) under which the Company records stock-based compensation expense for warrants and stock options granted to employees, directors and officers using the fair value method. Under this method, stock-based compensation is recorded over the vesting period of the warrant and option based on the fair value of the warrant and option as the grant date. The fair value of each warrant and option granted is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account on the grant date, the exercise price, expected life of the warrant and/or option, the price of the underlying security, the expected volatility, expected dividends on the underlying security, and the risk-free interest rate. Transactions in which goods or services are received from non-employees in exchange for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

Stock based compensation is recorded with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital. Consideration received on the exercise of warrants and options, together with the amount previously credited to additional-paid in capital, is recognized as an increase in common stock.

m. Equipment
Equipment is initially recorded at cost and amortized to operations over its estimated useful life at the following amortization rates and methods:

 
Computer equipment and software
55% straight line per annum
     
 
Furniture and fixtures
20% straight line per annum

Equipment is written down to its net realizable value if it is determined that its carrying value exceeds the estimated future benefits to the Company.

n.  Revenue Recognition
The company recognizes revenue when a contract is in place, minerals are delivered to the purchaser and collectability is reasonably assured.

o.  Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, Sentry Petroleum (Australia) Pty. Ltd. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

p.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company adopts new pronouncements relating to generally accepted accounting principles applicable to the Company as they are issued, which may be in advance of their effective date.  Management does not believe that any recently issued but not yet effective accounting standards; if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.


3.  Unproved properties

The Company’s oil and gas properties are located in Australia and its interests in these properties are maintained pursuant to the terms of Authority to Prospect (“ATP”) granted by the Department of Mines and Energy in Queensland. The Petroleum and Gas (Production and Safety) Act 2004 provides the framework for accessing land to explore and develop petroleum and coal seam gas resources in Queensland. The granting process involves a commitment to a work program that must be carried out within specific time periods. See Note 7 Commitments.

Overview

We were incorporated in Nevada on February 23, 2006 and are a Denver, Colorado-based oil and gas exploration stage company.  We are considered an exploration stage company because we are involved in the examination and investigation of land that we believe may contain hydrocarbon reserves.

Our current focus is on the exploration of properties for which we acquired four exploration permits (Authority to Prospect 862, 864, 865, and 866) to exclusively engage in exploration for oil and gas in central Queensland, Australia. ATP 862, 864, 865, and 866 each have a maximum term of 12 years, but can be terminated earlier for failure to carry out exploration work programs on the properties underlying these permits within certain time constraints. Our obligations on the four ATPs include obtaining additional seismic data and drilling of wells on each of the permits prior to February 2012. The total estimated cost to complete our obligations by February 28, 2012 is approximately $13 million (see Footnotes to financial statements for further detail on our exploration obligations). We currently have insufficient funding to complete the required obligations to maintain our permits.

We have commenced our exploration program on ATP 862, 864, 865, and 866.  We hold a 100% working interest in ATP 862, 864, 865, and 866, subject to a 7% gross overriding royalty payable to the original tenure holder. In the aggregate, our permits encompass approximately 6.9 million net acres.

On March 14, 2011, we awarded an option to Sino American Oil Company (“Sino”) for consideration of $25,000, which gave Sino the right to earn a 70% interest in ATP 865 and 866 by drilling one conventional well to a depth of 1,660 meters and to shoot 100 line Km of seismic. On June 27, 2011, we reached a mutual agreement with Sino American Oil Company to terminate this option agreement. The termination relieves both parties from any further rights or obligations awarded in the option and Sino is entitled to return of the $25,000 consideration Sino paid to us upon execution of the option agreement in March 2011.

The properties underlying our permits are without known reserves and the proposed plan of exploration detailed below is exploratory in nature.  There is no assurance that we will discover commercial quantities of hydrocarbons.  In addition, even if hydrocarbons are discovered, the costs of development may render any hydrocarbons found to be not commercially viable.  If we do not find hydrocarbon reserves or are unable to develop reserves, either because we do not have sufficient capital or the costs of extraction are uneconomical, we will have to cease operations.



 
-14-

 

As part of our regular business activities, we routinely review and assess interests in exploration or production properties in Australia and Austral Asia for our possible acquisition.  We seek additional properties or permits that we believe have the potential to add shareholder value. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in acquiring additional property interests or permits.  In order to acquire any additional exploration or production properties, we will need to secure additional financing.

We require significant additional funding to complete the work program we committed to when acquiring our current exploration properties. We anticipate raising additional financing through the sale of equity securities to finance these exploration obligations, although there can be no assurance that such funding will be available. In the absence of sufficient financing to finance our exploration activity required to carry out our proposed exploration programs, we will not be able to pursue our exploration program or to maintain our permits in good standing.  If we do not execute on our proposed exploration programs, we may be required to relinquish our interests in our permits and will be forced to cease operations. 

Additionally, there can be no assurance that if we are successful in securing funding that we will be successful in discovering commercial quantities of hydrocarbons, or that we will have access to funds to develop a successful discovery without significant dilution or cost to our stockholders.

Our business plan is limited in its scope and we intend to derive all of our revenue from a discovery of commercial quantities of hydrocarbons. Specifically, discovering sufficient quantities of hydrocarbons to warrant their profitable development. We have no other business plans and if we are unsuccessful in discovering commercial quantities of hydrocarbons our business will fail.

During the three months ended May 31, 2011, we completed the final preparation for our drilling program. We completed contracts with the landowners, finalized the design and budgeting for each well and secured service contracts with the necessary drilling and testing companies. On June 15, 2011, we commenced drilling on the initial well in ATP 862, the Talundilly_CSG1. We completed drilling of this initial well on June 24, 2011, after reaching target depth (TD) of 436 meters. A total of 15.26 meters of coal and carbonaceous shale cores were collected and forwarded for gas desorption testing. Net coal thickness collected was 12.7 meters. Due to certain anomalous data from what we believe could have been errors made during the testing process, we are not in a position based on the data received to determine the commerciality of the coal and carbonaceous shale deposit surrounding Talundilly_CSG1.  An additional six to eight wells will need to be drilled to obtain more data in order to make any conclusive determination as to the results from the desorption analysis.  Drilling of an additional six to eight wells will require significant additional funding to complete.

During the three months ended August 31, 2011, we completed the drilling of the Albilbah CSG1 well in permit ATP 862 in Queensland Australia. The well reached a total depth of 1,555 feet and 472 feet of core were cut. 35 feet of gaseous coal and carbonaceous rock were sealed in 20 canisters for desorption measurement. In addition, the lower Winton Sandstones (LWSS) were found to contain free gas and 20 feet of these cores were also placed in canisters to measure the gas emitted from the cores. Evidence of gas in the canisters prompted the re-evaluation of the original Albilbah-1 (drilled by a previous operator) well logs to investigate the possibility of gas being present in the pore space of the LWSS. Sentry’s log analysis concluded that gas is present in a net 115 feet of the 250 feet interval. Further drilling and testing is required in order to make any determination as to whether the amount of gas present can be economically produced and no assurance can be provided that the amount of gas found to exist will be capable of being economically produced.

During the three months ended November 30, 2011 we completed the final laboratory analysis and results from the Talundilly_CSG1 and Albilbah_CSG1. Management believes that the results are inconclusive and that six to eight additional wells should be drilled before conclusions can be made on the commerciality of the resource deposit.  The data obtained during drilling and laboratory results and analysis has been forwarded for independent review and auditing.

The Company has been unsuccessful in securing joint venture partners or to raise funding to continue the operations on its permits. As a cost saving effort, the Board of Directors has passed a resolution to terminate our reporting obligations pursuant to the 1934 Exchange Act. It our intention to file the required documentation with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to our year end on February 28, 2012.

The first four year term of our Authorities to Prospect (ATP) in Queensland expires on February 28, 2012. Prior to this date we must submit an application to renew the ATPs for an additional four years. Due to lack of funds, we have not completed all of the work commitments stipulated in the original work program approved by the Queensland Department of Employment, Economic Development and Innovation (DEEDI). The ATPs will therefore not be in good standing on the date of renewal. The Company has submitted an application with DEEDI for an extension on completing the work obligations. There is material risk that this application will not be granted. A rejection of the application could result in a substantial or total relinquishment of the Company’s ATPs on February 28, 2012. Such an event would leave the company without operating assets.

Plan of Operation

The following plan of operations is contingent on us securing funding that will allow us to continue operations. Presently our prospect for funding is limited. In the event that we are not successful in securing funding we might be forced to relinquish our ATPs and cease operations.

In the event that we do secure funding we intend to further explore the delineated coal and carbonaceous shale deposit in ATP 862 and 864, we plan to drill six to eight wells. This program will quantitatively measure original gas in place using canister desorption and core logging methods and we will commence flow testing of one or two of the wells. In addition to exploration of the coal and carbonaceous shale deposit we intend to drill two well to flow test the Winton Sandstone interval intercepted during drilling of Albilbah_CSG1. We further intend to acquire additional seismic data. We expect that in total these activities would cost $10 million.  We do not have sufficient funds to complete such activities however, and will require additional funding for any future exploration or appraisal work.

In ATP 865 and 866, we plan to undertake a seismic program to advance our prospects during the next 6 months assuming we are able to secure sufficient financing. We further plan to drill one conventional well, the Ravenscourt, to test the Etonvale Formation at a depth of approximately 1,700 meters (5,580 feet) downdip from the Rosebank-1 well and will be targeting a thicker carbonate section.  We expect that such activities would cost $3.5 million.  We do not have sufficient funds to complete any of the above planned activities and will require additional funding to continue operations.

Our work program includes acquisition of seismic data and drilling of additional wells. The time to complete the acquisition of seismic data and drilling of wells depends on, among other things, the availability of personnel and equipment in Queensland. The associated costs will be determined by the depth of the wells and the amount of seismic data to be acquired.

We do not have sufficient funds to carry out our plan of operations for the next twelve months. We rely principally on the issuance of common shares by private placements to raise funds to finance our business. There is no assurance that market conditions will permit us to raise funds. If possible, we will issue more common shares at prices we determine, possibly resulting in dilution of the value of common shares.

With our ATP 862, 864, 865, and 866, we are obliged to complete proposed work programs to maintain our interests in good standing.  As of November 30, 2011 our committed expenditures prior to February 28, 2012 total $13 million. However, the completion of the work program is determined for each permit individually and there is no cumulative analysis on work completed.

The following table details the estimated capital expenditure required by February 28, 2012 for us to maintain good standing on our four permits:

We do not expect any significant purchases of plant and equipment or any increase in the number of employees in the near future.

We anticipate incurring expenses of approximately $19 million over the next 12 months for our exploration program. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to secure the necessary financing and equipment to undertake the work program within the anticipated time frame. If we are unsuccessful in securing sufficient financing and equipment we may be subject to relinquishment of any one or all of our existing permits.

Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended November 30, 2011 and 2010

Revenues

We have not generated any revenues from operations since our inception.

Expenses

We reported total expenses in the amount of $479,369 for the three months ended November 30, 2011, compared to total expenses of $152,348 for the three months ended November 30, 2010.  Our total expenses were significantly higher for the three months ended November 30, 2011, as compared to the three months ended November 30, 2010. For the nine month period ended November 30, 2011 we reported total expenses of $1,843,908 compared to $365,877 for the same period last year. The substantial increase in costs for the nine and three month periods are mostly related to increased cost of deferred compensation from additional options awarded, from increased shareholder communication expenditures, write down of exploration assets associated with our surrender of EPC 1758 and from increased travel related to financing activities. EPC 1758 was surrendered during the period ending May 31, 2011 and all capitalized costs were at that time written off.

We incurred general and administrative expenses of $465,202 for the three months ended November 30, 2011, compared to $153,072 for the three months ended November 30, 2010. For the nine month period ended November 30, 2011, we reported $1,741,433 compared to $352,148 for the same period in 2010. The increase in our general and administrative expenses for both the three and nine month periods are primarily attributable to the increased cost of deferred compensation from additional options awarded, increased investor communication expenses and travel related expenses.  For the three months ended November 30, 2011, we incurred deferred compensation of $410,535, compared to $120,581 for the three months ended November 30, 2010. For the nine month period ended November 30, 2011, we reported deferred compensation expenses of $1,231,605 compared to $184,764 for the nine month period of 2010. During the three months ended November 30, 2011, we also incurred shareholder communication expenses of $9,282, compared to $4,776 for the same period in 2010. For the nine month period ended November 30, 2011, we incurred shareholder communication expenses of $349,120 compared to $6,540 for the same period in 2010.  The increase was caused by increased frequency of communication with a substantial greater number of shareholders and from issuing 60,000 shares to a consultant for investor relation services. For the three months ended November 30, 2011, we further incurred $20,819 related to travel and funding activities as compared $7,562 for the three months ended November 30, 2010. For the nine months ended November 30, 2011, we incurred $85,311 for these activities compared to $10,204 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010.

We incurred professional fees for the three months ended November 30, 2011 of $14,167 for the three months ended November 30, 2011, compared to $6,055 for the three months ended November 30, 2010. For the nine month periods ended November 30, 2011 and 2010 we incurred professional fees of $41,556 and $19,569, respectively. The increase in professional fees for the three and nine month periods is attributable to an increase in our exploration activity and specifically to contract negotiations with land owners and with service providers for our drilling program.  We anticipate that we will incur increased professional fees as we continue our work programs and exploration activity.

We recorded no gain or loss on foreign exchange for the three months ended November 30, 2011, compared to a gain of $6,779 for the same period in the prior year. For the nine month period ended November 30, 2011, we reported a foreign exchange loss of $350 compared to a gain of $5,840 for the same period in 2010. The loss on foreign exchange was realized during the nine months ended November 30, 2011 as a result of fluctuation in the US dollar as compared to the Australian dollars

During the three months ended November 30, 2011, we did not expense any write down of exploration assets. For the nine month period ended November 30, 2011, we expensed $60,569. We did not incur any write down of exploration assets during the three or nine months ended November 30, 2011.

Other Income

We reported other income of $1,255 for the three months ended November 30, 2011 and other income of $6 for the three months ended November 30, 2010. For the nine month periods ending November 30, 2011 and November 30, 2010, we reported other income of $16,363 and $45, respectively. Other income was attributable to interest received on bank deposits on funds held in Australian Dollar at a higher interest rate than U.S. rates.

Net Loss

We had net loss of $478,114 for the three months ended November 30, 2011, as compared to net loss of $152,342 for the three months ended November 30, 2011. We had net loss of $1,843,908 for the nine months ended November 30, 2011, as compared to net loss of $365,877 for the nine months ended November 30, 2011. The increase in our net loss was attributable to increased expenses described above.

Basic and Diluted Loss per Share

As a result of the above, the basic and diluted loss per common share was $0.01 and $0.00 for the three months ended November 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Basic and diluted loss per common share was $0.04 and $0.01 for the nine months ended November 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of November 30, 2011, we had total current assets of $95,634 (February 2011: $689,015), which included cash of $74,108, prepaid expenses of $17,895, and sales taxes receivable of $3,631. As of November 30, 2011, we had total current liabilities in the amount of $70,159 (February 2011: $103,163). As a result, we had working capital of $25,475 as of November 30, 2011 (February 2011: $585,852).

We anticipate that we will not generate any revenue during the next twelve months.  In 2008, the proposal to the local government for permits ATP 862, 864, 865 and 866 of an exploration program with a total estimated commitment of approximately $19.5 million to be completed by February 28, 2012 was approved.  As of the date of this report, we have expended approximately $1,600,000 in exploration expenditures in executing on the proposal to the local government for permits ATP 862, 864, 865 and 866 and we are obligated to complete the $19.5 million in exploration expenditures by February 28, 2012 in order to maintain our permits in good standing.  If we do not complete our work obligations, there is a risk that we will lose our rights to continue operations on our permits. In order for us to complete our work obligations we will have to raise additional funds. There can be no

 
-18-

 


assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funds to complete our obligations. Even if we do raise the required funds we do not have sufficient time to complete our work obligations prior to February 28, 2012. In order to complete our work obligations we will have to receive an extension on the deadline to complete our work obligations from the Queensland government. There can be no assurance that we will receive any extension on our deadline to complete our work obligations.

In addition to these expenditures anticipated to be incurred in connection with our proposed exploration programs, to maintain operations we will have to incur approximately $15,000 in ongoing general and administrative expenses for the next twelve months. Currently we do not have sufficient funds to maintain ongoing operations. Unless we secure additional funding we will cease all operations until sufficient funding is secured.

Our current cash on hand is insufficient to be able to make our planned exploration expenditures and to pay for our general administrative expenses over the next twelve months.  We must obtain additional financing in order to continue our plan of operations. We do not have any lending arrangements in place with banking institutions and believe that debt financing will not be an alternative for funding our exploration programs or to pay for general and administrative expense as we have limited tangible assets to secure any debt financing.  We anticipate that any additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock.  We are currently seeking additional funding in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock, but cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding to fund our proposed exploration programs that is a requirement in order to maintain our permits in good standing or to maintain operations.  During the nine months ended November 30, 2011, we raised $1,000,000 through private equity offerings and entered into an agreement that provided for future financing through the issuance of 400,000 common shares for $1.0 million upon our ability to confirm average gas content of coal of not less than 2.5 cubic meters per ton dry ash free and; for Carbonaceous Shale - not less than average 0.5 cubic meters per ton for shale with total organic content greater than 8 weight percent.  This agreement also provides for the issuance of 535,714 shares for $1.5 million upon an initial 3P reserve certification.  To date we have not been able to satisfy these conditions in order to enable us to closing on these financing commitments.

We are considering entering into a joint venture arrangement to finance the exploration activity required to carry out our proposed exploration programs on the properties underlying our permits.  We are seeking to locate a joint venture participant, but can provide no assurance that we will be successful.  In the event that we enter into a joint venture arrangement, we would likely have to assign a percentage of our property interests to the joint venture participant.

If we are unable to raise additional capital in the immediate future, we will experience liquidity problems and management expects that we will need to curtail operations, liquidate assets, seek additional capital on less favorable terms and/or pursue other remedial measures.  In the absence of sufficient financing to fund our exploration activity required to carry out our proposed exploration programs, we will not be able to pursue our exploration program and maintain our permits in good standing.  If we do not execute on our proposed exploration programs, we may be required to relinquish our interests in our permits and will be forced to cease operations. 

Cash Used in Operating Activities

Cash flows used in operating activities for the nine months ended November 30, 2011 were $406,484, as compared to cash flows used in operating activities of $106,798 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010.  Our net loss of $1,827,545 for the nine months ended November 30, 2011 was the primary reason for our negative operating cash flow, as compared to our net loss of $365,832 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010.  Our reporting negative operating cash flows for the nine months ended November 30, 2011 was offset by stock-based compensation of $1,231,604, services paid for with stock of $180,000, and write off of exploration assets of $60,569 for the reporting period.

Cash Used in Investing Activities

For the nine months ended November 30, 2011, we used $1,174,098 in investing activities, as compared to $48,371 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010.  For the nine months ended November 30, 2011, we invested $1,171,668 in unproven properties, as compared to the nine months ended November 30, 2010, in which we invested of $47,975 in unproven properties.

Cash from Financing Activities

As we have had no revenues since inception, we have financed our operations primarily by using existing capital reserves and through private placements of our common stock.  For the nine months ended November 30, 2011, we generated $1,000,000 from the issuance of common shares, as compared to $500,000 cash flows provided by financing activities for the nine months ended November 30, 2010.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Going Concern

We have incurred net losses for the period from inception on February 23, 2006 to November 30, 2011 of $3,748,210 and have no source of revenue.  The continuity of our future operations is dependent on our ability to obtain financing from issuance of equity securities.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Recent accounting pronouncements

There have been no recent accounting pronouncements since the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed on May 31, 2011, that have a material impact on the Company’s financial presentation and disclosure.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our condensed unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP.  For a full discussion of our accounting policies as required by GAAP, please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2011.  We consider certain accounting policies to be critical to an understanding of our condensed consolidated financial statements because their application requires significant judgment and reliance on estimations of matters that are inherently uncertain.  The specific risks related to these critical accounting policies are unchanged at the date of this report and are described in detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
