LIBERTY COAL ENERGY CORP. (An Exploration Stage Company) Notes to Financial Statements NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS Liberty Coal Energy Corp. (the "Company"), incorporated in the state of Nevada on August 31, 2007, and was developing business activities in teacher recruiting. The Company changed its business focus in March, 2010 and now intends to enter the business of precious mineral exploration, development, and production. The Company has not yet commenced significant business operations and is considered to be in the exploration stage (formerly in the development stage). NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES MANAGEMENT CERTIFICATION The financial statements herein are certified by the officers of the Company to present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, consistently applied. Basis of Presentation Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. We believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the financial information presented not misleading. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended September 30, 2011. All adjustments were of a normal recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position results of operations for the interim period have been included. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and amounts due to a Company stockholder. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements. It is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from its other financial instruments and that their fair values approximate their carrying values except where separately disclosed. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States 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 year. The more significant areas requiring the use of estimates include asset impairment, stock-based compensation, and future income tax amounts. Management 7
bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions considered to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from the estimates. MINERAL PROPERTIES Costs of exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized including licenses and lease payments. Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects. Impairment losses are recorded on mineral properties used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount. LOSS PER SHARE Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the treasury stock method is used to calculate diluted earnings per share. For the years presented, this calculation proved to be anti-dilutive. DIVIDENDS The Company has not adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends. No dividends have been paid during the period shown. INCOME TAXES The Company provides for income taxes using an asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. No provision for income taxes is included in the statement due to its immaterial amount, net of the allowance account, based on the likelihood of the Company to utilize the loss carry-forward. See Note 5. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE Net loss per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents, if not anti-dilutive. The Company has not issued any potentially dilutive common shares. RECENTLY ADOPTED PRONOUNCEMENTS The Company does not expect the adoption of other recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flow. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain balances in the prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. NOTE 3 - MINERAL PROPERTIES SOUTH POWDER RIVER PROJECT CAMPBELL COUNTY, WY The Company has made the decision not to pursue this property further. South Powder River is an exploration project with no known reserves. Cost projections, including permitting, indicate production costs in this location would be higher than the coal could be sold for if a resource was delineated. The Company has elected to use existing capital on the projects which will generate cash flow in the short term. 8
OWSLEY COUNTY KENTUCKY PROPERTY On February 1, 2012, the Company entered into letter of intent for the acquisition of private mineral leasehold rights to certain coal mining property in Owsley County, Kentucky with AMS Development LLC. and Colt Resources, Inc. (the "Owsley Agreement"). The Owsley property covers approximately 1,000 acres and has approximately 3,600,000 tons of coal recoverable by surface and high wall (auger) methods. There are underground reserves in place which are not being considered for production at this time. Owsley has a permit technically approved by the Kentucky Department of Natural Resources for the first 80 acre phase. The permit can be placed on active status and mining initiated by posting a $175,000 reclamation bond. The Company believes mining can be commenced within 90 days of breaking ground. In consideration for the mineral property leasehold, the Company must pay $20,000 within 5 days of the date of the Owsley Agreement, $60,000 within 45 days if the Company decides to move forward and Purchase the rights to the mining permits and operate under a leasehold. As part of the Owsley Agreement, the Company has agreed to enter into a royalty agreement with AMS Development LLC & Colt Resources, Inc., pursuant to which AMS & Colt would receive a minimum royalty of $5.00 per ton or 10% of the gross sales price per ton. NORTH RANCHESTER COAL PROPERTY The Company has made the decision not to pursue this property further. Ranchester is an exploration project with no known reserves. Cost projections, including permitting, indicate production costs in this location would be higher than the coal could be sold for if a resource was delineated. The Company has elected to use existing capital on the projects which will generate cash flow in the short term. NOTE 4 - CAPITAL STOCK The Company has 1,500,000,000 common shares authorized at a par value of $0.001 per share. On August 31, 2007, the Company issued 1,500,000 common shares to founders for total proceeds of $15,000. On May 31, 2008, the Company completed a private placement whereby it issued 960,000 common shares at $0.05 per share for total proceeds of $48,000. On February 1, 2010, the Company completed a private placement whereby it issued 1,000,000 units for $0.25 per unit. Each unit consists of one common share and common share purchase warrant allowing the holder to purchase a common share at $0.25 per share expiring February 1, 2012. On February 1, 2010, the Company issued 100,000 common shares as partial consideration to acquire the Campbell Property. On February 11, 2010, the Company completed a private placement whereby it issued 1,000,000 units for $0.25 per unit. Each unit consists of one common share and common share purchase warrant allowing the holder to purchase a common share at $0.25 per share expiring February 1, 2012. On March 15, 2010, the Company increased its authorized common shares from 50,000,000 shares to 1,500,000,000 shares and effected a 30 for 1 forward stock split. All share amounts reflected in the financial statements have been adjusted to reflect the results of the stock split. 9
On March 20, 2010, the Company cancelled 18,000,000 of its common stock outstanding. On May 11, 2011, the Company completed a private placement whereby it issued 666,667 units for $0.75 per unit. Each unit consists of one common share and common share purchase warrant allowing the holder to purchase a common share at $0.82 per share expiring April 30, 2013. On January 18, 2012, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares @ $0.10 to its CFO and Director as part of his compensation. WARRANTS Outstanding at Issue Date Number Price Expiry Date December 31, 2011 ---------- ------ ----- ----------- ----------------- May 11, 2011 666,667 $0.82 May 11, 2013 666,667 NOTE 5 - INCOME TAXES The Company provides for income taxes using an asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect currently. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In the Company's opinion, it is uncertain whether they will generate sufficient taxable income in the future to fully utilize the net deferred tax asset. Accordingly, a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax asset has been recorded. The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is approximately $ 1,129,828 at June 30, 2012, and will expire beginning in the year 2029.The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 22% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows: June 30, September 30, 2012 2011 ---------- ---------- Deferred tax asset attributable to: Net operating loss carryover $ 248,562 $ 54,644 Valuation allowance (248,562) (54,644) ---------- ---------- Net deferred tax asset $ -- $ -- ========== ========== NOTE 6 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION As of June 30, 2012, there is a balance owing to two officers of the Company in the amount of $10,504 (September 30, 2011 - $7,504). This amount is included in accounts payable-related party. The officers and directors of the Company are involved in other business activities and may, in the future, become involved in other business opportunities that become available. They may face a conflict in selecting between the Company and other business interests. The Company has not formulated a policy for the resolution of such conflicts. NOTE 7 - GOING CONCERN The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the notes to the financial statements, the Company has no established source of revenue. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty. 10
The Company's activities to date have been supported by equity financing. It has sustained losses in all previous reporting periods with an inception to date loss of $1,129,828 as of June 30, 2012. Management continues to seek funding from its shareholders and other qualified investors to pursue its business plan. In the alternative, the Company may be amenable to a sale, merger or other acquisition in the event such transaction is deemed by management to be in the best interests of the shareholders. NOTE 8 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS None. 11
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "should," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential" or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks noted herein in the section entitled "Risk Factors," that may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results. Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$), unless otherwise specified, and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. All references to "common shares" refer to the common shares in our capital stock. As used in this quarterly report, the terms "we," "us," "our Company," and the "Company" mean Liberty Coal Energy Corp., a Nevada corporation, unless otherwise indicated. CORPORATE HISTORY The address of our principal executive office is 99 18th Street, Suite 3000, Denver, Colorado 80202. Our telephone number is 303.997.3161. Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "LBTG." We were incorporated on August 31, 2007 as "ESL Teachers Inc." under the laws of the State of Nevada. Our original business plan was to develop and sell online employment services specifically for both ESL Teachers and ESL operations seeking to hire teachers worldwide. On March 15, 2010, we changed our name to Liberty Coal Energy Corp. by way of a merger with our wholly owned subsidiary "Liberty Coal Energy Corp." which was formed solely for the purpose of the change of name. The change of name was to better represent the new business direction of our Company to that of a coal exploration, development, and production company. In addition, on March 15, 2010, we effected a 30 for 1 forward stock split of our authorized and issued and outstanding shares of common stock such that our authorized capital increased from 50,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share to 1,500,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. OUR CURRENT BUSINESS Our primary business focus is to acquire and develop advanced coal properties in North America. We are currently holding one property- The Owsley Project in Owsley county, Eastern Kentucky. Owsley Coal Project On February 1, 2012, the Company entered into a letter of intent for the acquisition of private mineral leasehold rights to certain coal mining property in Owsley County, Kentucky with AMS Development LLC. and Colt Resources, Inc. (the "Owsley Agreement"). 12
The Owsley property covers approximately 1,000 acres and has 3,600,000 tons of coal recoverable by surface and high wall (auger) methods. There are underground reserves in place which are not being considered for production at this time. The Owsley project has a permit completed and technically approved by the Kentucky Department of Natural Resources for the first 80 acre phase. The permit can be placed on active status and mining initiated by posting a $175,000 reclamation bond. The Company believes mining can be commenced within 90 days of breaking ground. In consideration for the mineral property leasehold, the Company must pay $20,000 within 5 days of the date of the Owsley Agreement, $60,000 within 45 days if the Company decides to move forward and Purchase the rights to the mining permits and operate under a leasehold. As part of the Owsley Agreement, the Company has agreed to enter into a royalty agreement with AMS Development LLC & Colt Resources, Inc., pursuant to which AMS & Colt would receive a minimum royalty of $5.00 per ton or 10% of the gross sales price per ton. We are an exploration stage company with limited operations and no revenues from our business activities. The following is a discussion and analysis of our results of operation for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, and the factors that could affect our future financial condition and results of operation. GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATION Our registered independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their report on our financial statements as of and for the years ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following summary of our results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 which are included herein. THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2012 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 The following table summarizes key items of comparison for the three months ended June 30, 2012, and 2011: Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 2011 -------- -------- Amortization $ 422 $ 422 General and administrative 2,255 6,157 Legal and accounting 10,511 7,690 Investor relations 5,600 8,185 Consulting 38,500 22,500 Royalty Payments 20,000 -- Development 10,000 -- Transfer agent 507 -- Interest Expense -- 2,111 Other Expense 315,400 -- -------- -------- Net Loss $403,195 $ 44,954 ======== ======== We had a net loss of $403,195 for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, which was an increase of $358,241 compared to the net loss of $44,954 for the quarter ended June 31, 2011. The significant change in our results over the two periods is 13
primarily the result of management's activities around the Company's projects as the Company had to write down $315,400 to other expenses. NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2012 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2011 The following table summarizes key items of comparison for the six months ended June 30, 2012, and 2011: Nine Months Ended June 30, 2012 2011 -------- -------- Amortization $ 1,266 $ 1,267 General and administrative 24,578 19,138 Legal and accounting 23,624 13,706 Investor relations 14,515 21,381 Consulting 87,500 52,500 Stock compensation 200,000 -- Royalty Payments 20,000 -- Development 10,000 -- Transfer agent 910 382 Interest expense -- 3,500 Other expense 397,985 -- -------- -------- Net Loss $780,378 $111,874 ======== ======== We had a net loss of $780,378 for the nine months ended June 30, 2012, which was an increase of $668,504 compared to the net loss of $111,874 for the nine months ended June 30, 2011. The significant change in our results over the two periods is primarily the result of management's activities around the Company's projects as the Company had to write down $397,985 to other expenses and a $200,000 stock incentive pay-out to one of the directors. PERIOD FROM INCEPTION, AUGUST 31, 2007 TO JUNE 30, 2012 Since inception, we have an accumulated deficit of $1,129,828. We expect to continue to incur losses as a result of continued exploration and development of our coal mining interests. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Our balance sheet as of June 30, 2012, reflects assets of $178,731. We had cash in the amount of $96,317 and working capital in the amount of $77,328 as of June 30, 2012. Three Months Three Months Ended Ended June 30, June 30, 2012 2011 ---------- ---------- Net Cash (Used in) Operating Activities $ (164,890) $ (123,890) Net Cash (Used in) Investing Activities (80,000) (27,585) Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities -- 100,000 ---------- ---------- Increase (Decrease) in Cash $ (244,890) $ (51,475) ========== ========== Our current cash requirements are significant due to planned exploration and development of our current coal mining property interests, and we anticipate generating losses. In order to execute on our business strategy, including the exploration and development of our current coal interest, we will require 14
additional working capital, commensurate with the operational needs of our planned projects and obligations. Our management believes that we should be able to raise sufficient amounts of working capital through debt or equity offerings, as may be required to meet our short-term obligations. However, changes in our operating plans, increased expenses, acquisitions, or other events, may cause us to seek additional equity or debt financing in the future. We anticipate continued and additional operations on our properties. Accordingly, we expect to continue to use debt and equity financing to fund operations for the next twelve months, as we look to expand our asset base and fund exploration and development of our properties. There are no assurances that we will be able to raise the required working capital on terms favorable, or that such working capital will be available on any terms when needed. Any failure to secure additional financing may force us to modify our business plan. In addition, we cannot be assured of profitability or continued operations in the future. OPERATING ACTIVITIES Net cash flow used in operating activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2012 was $(164,890), an increase of $41,000 from the $(123,890) net cash used in operating activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2011. INVESTING ACTIVITIES Net Investing activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2012 used $80,000 of cash, an increase of $52,415 from the $27,585 cash used in Investing Activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2011. FINANCING ACTIVITIES Net Financing activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2012 brought in nil, a decrease of $100,000 from the $100,000 cash brought in by Financing Activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2011. APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES MANAGEMENT CERTIFICATION The financial statements herein are certified by the officers of the Company to present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, consistently applied. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and amounts due to a Company stockholder. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements. It is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from its other financial instruments and that their fair values approximate their carrying values except where separately disclosed. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States 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 15
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. The more significant areas requiring the use of estimates include asset impairment, stock-based compensation, and future income tax amounts. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions considered to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from the estimates. MINERAL PROPERTIES Costs of exploration, carrying and retaining unproven mineral lease properties are expensed as incurred. Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized including licenses and lease payments. Although the Company has taken steps to verify title to mineral properties in which it has an interest, these procedures do not guarantee the Company's title. Such properties may be subject to prior agreements or transfers and title may be affected by undetected defects. Impairment losses are recorded on mineral properties used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount. LOSS PER SHARE Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the treasury stock method is used to calculate diluted earnings per share. For the years presented, this calculation proved to be anti-dilutive. DIVIDENDS The Company has not adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends. No dividends have been paid during the period shown. INCOME TAXES The Company provides for income taxes using an asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. No provision for income taxes is included in the statement due to its immaterial amount, net of the allowance account, based on the likelihood of the Company to utilize the loss carry-forward. NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE Net loss per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common stock equivalents, if not anti-dilutive. The Company has not issued any potentially dilutive common shares. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES In June 2009, the FASB issued changes to require an enterprise to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise's variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity; to require ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to eliminate the quantitative approach previously required for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity; to add an additional reconsideration event for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity when any changes in facts and circumstances occur such that holders of the equity investment at risk, as a group, lose the power from voting rights or similar rights of those investments to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance; and to require enhanced disclosures that will provide users of financial statements with more transparent information about an enterprise's involvement in a variable interest entity. The 16
guidance became effective for the Company on February 1, 2010. The adoption of the guidance did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements. CODIFICATION OF GAAP In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance to establish the Accounting Standards Codification TM ("Codification") as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The FASB will no longer issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts; instead, the FASB will issue Accounting Standards Updates ("ASU"). ASUs will not be authoritative in their own right as they will only serve to update the Codification. The issuance of SFAS 168 and the Codification does not change GAAP. The guidance became effective for the Company for the period ending October 31, 2009. The adoption of the guidance did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS None BUSINESS COMBINATIONS The Company adopted the changes issued by the FASB that requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction; establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; and requires the acquirer to disclose additional information needed to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. The Company also adopted the changes issued by the FASB which requires assets and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies be recognized on the acquisition date at fair value if it is more likely than not that they meet the definition of an asset or liability; and requires that contingent consideration arrangements of the target assumed by the acquirer be initially measured at fair value. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain balances in the prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. REVENUES We have not generated revenues since inception. OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS We have no off-balance sheet arrangements. ITEM 3.
