Notes to Financial Statements

 

March 31, 2013

 

(Unaudited)

 

1.                  NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

These interim financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2012 reflect all adjustments which, in the opinion of management are necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations for the periods presented.

 

Kabe Exploration, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 16, 2005.  The Company was originally formed for mineral exploration in the United States.  The Company abandoned its Mineral Leases in 2008.  The fiscal year end of the Company is December 31.

 

The Company is considered a development-stage company, with limited operating revenues during the periods presented, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board FASB Accounting Standards Codification ASC 915.  ASC 915 requires companies to report their operations, shareholders deficit and cash flows since inception through the date that revenues are generated from management’s intended operations, among other things.  Management has defined inception as January 1, 2006. Since inception, the Company has incurred an operating loss of ($482,243). The Company’s working capital has been generated through the sales of common stock.

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared by us pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the operating results for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally present in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2012 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of the three month period ended March 31, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2013.

USE OF ESTIMATIONS

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

 

All cash is maintained with a major financial institution in the United States.  Deposits with this bank may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits.  Temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.

 

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCILA INSTRUMENTS

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued ASC (Accounting Standards Codification) 820-10 (SFAS No. 157), “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” for financial assets and liabilities. FASB ASC 820-10 provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements.  FASB ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.  FASB ASC 820-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available. The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial liabilities as at March 31, 2013 were measured against the three levels of inputs required by the standard to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other that than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

Level 3 — Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

 

INCOME TAXES

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not

Table of Contents

 

to be realized.  The Company generated a deferred tax credit through net operating loss carry-forward.  However, a valuation allowance of 100% has been established as it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax credits will not be realized.

 

Interest and penalties on tax deficiencies recognized in accordance with ASC accounting standards are classified as income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740-10-50-19.

 

The Company has generated a deferred tax credit through net operating loss carry-forward

 

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern.  The Company incurred a net loss of $7,951 in the three months ended March 31, 2013 and has a cumulative net loss of $482,243 since inception. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable.  If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease development of operations.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish its plans to exploit or lease mining claims, or engage a working interest partner, in order to eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.  The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classifications or liabilities or other adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 3 - NET LOSS PER SHARE

 

Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share for the period presented.  Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted net loss per share is based on the assumption that all dilative convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised.  Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method.  Under this method, options and warrants are assumed exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby we used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

 

The Company had no potentially dilutive securities outstanding as of March 31, 2013 and 2012.

 

The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

Forward-Looking Statements and Associated Risks

 

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “safe harbor” for certain forward-looking statements. Some of the statements contained in this annual report of the Company discuss future expectations, contain projections of our operations or financial condition or state other forward-looking information. Some statements contained in this annual report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts (including without limitation statements to the effect that we “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “intend,” “foresee,” or other similar expressions) and are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on us. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be those anticipated by us. All comments concerning our expectations for future revenue and operating results are based on our forecasts of our plan of operation and do not include the potential impact of any future acquisitions or operations. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

 

Overview

 

During 2007, we were an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. We entered into a lease agreement with George J. Eliopulos effective March 31, 2006, granting us the exclusive right to explore, develop, and mine the property for gold, silver, copper and other valuable minerals.  The property consisted of one unpatented mining claim located in section 12, Township 16 North, Range 20 East, Mt. Diablo Baseline & Meridian, Storey County, Nevada, USA, owned by Mr. Eliopulos.

 

On December 18, 2007, Erik Ulsteen entered into an agreement with Antony Claydon, our former President and a director and Rory Moss, a director, to purchase 1,500,000 and 250,000 shares of common stock, respectively, for an aggregate purchase price of $50,000. The transaction closed on February 14, 2008 at which time, Mr. Claydon resigned as President, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary and Mr. Ulsteen was appointed President, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and director.  On January 28, 2008, we terminated our lease agreement with Mr. Eliopulos.

Table of Contents

 

On February 21, 2013, we purchased 320 mineral lease acres in Butler County Kansas representing a 81% Net Revenue Interest, or NRI. We plan to drill shallow wells 3300-6000 ft. on a turnkey basis, which is a very low cost drilling program. We hope to achieve production of approx. 100-200 barrels per day, or BPD, for each well and we plan to drill 1 well initially and up to 7 wells if results from the first one are positive.   We are currently in a pre-production phase and are gearing up towards full production development. We have set a target date of August 2013 to begin drilling test wells in target zones. Drilling might commence sooner based on funding received.

 

The following factors raise substantial doubt regarding the ability of our business to continue as a going concern: (i) the losses we have incurred since our inception; (ii) our failure to generate revenues since our inception; and (iii) our dependence on the sale of our equity securities and on the receipt of capital from outside sources to continue our operations. Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion regarding our business. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the uncertainty about our ability to continue in business. As such we may have to cease operations and you could lose your investment.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2012

 

Revenues

 

We have generated no operating revenues from operations from our inception.

 

Costs and Expenses

 

From our inception through March 31, 2013, we have incurred cumulative losses of $482,243.  Professional fees increased to $3,290 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $1,925 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.  Other Administrative expenses increased to $3,498 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 from $3,077 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2013, we had a working capital deficit of $49,318 as compared to a working capital deficit of $41,367 as of December 31, 2012.  Our cash position was $90 as of March 31, 2013 compared to $138 as of December 31, 2012.  We have financed our company principally through the private placement of our common stock.  As of March 31, 2013, we have no long term debt.

 

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

Our financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance

 

9



Table of Contents

 

with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.  Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management are, among others, realizability of long-lived assets, deferred taxes and stock option valuation.

 

The financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within the reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting.

 

Income Taxes

 

We utilize SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns.  Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.  Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. We generated a deferred tax credit through net operating loss carryforward.  However, a valuation allowance of 100% has been established, as the realization of the deferred tax credits is not reasonably certain, based on going concern considerations outlined as follows.

 

Going Concern

 

Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  We have not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover our operating costs and to allow us to continue as a going concern.   Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on us obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until we become profitable.  If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease operations.

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to successfully accomplish our plan to develop a new business plan, or merger candidate in order to eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.  The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classifications or liabilities or other adjustments that

Table of Contents

 

might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Development-Stage Company

 

We are considered a development-stage company, with limited operating revenues during the periods presented, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 7.  SFAS.  No. 7 requires companies to report their operations, shareholders deficit and cash flows since inception through the date that revenues are generated from management’s intended operations, among other things.  Management has defined inception as January 1, 2006. Since inception until March 31, 2013, we have incurred an operating loss of $482,243.  Our working capital has been generated through sales of common stock.  Management has provided financial data since January 1, 2006, “Inception” in the financial statements, as a means to provide readers of our financial information to make informed investment decisions.

Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with SFAS 128, Earnings Per Share for the period presented.  Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted net loss per share is based on the assumption that all dilative convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised.  Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method.  Under this method, options and warrants are assumed exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby we used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

 

We had no potentially dilutive securities outstanding as of March 31, 2013.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to our stockholders.

 

Item 4    Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We evaluated the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures to determine whether they are effective in ensuring that we disclose required information in a timely manner and in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC.  The executive who serves as our President and Chief Financial Officer has participated in such evaluation.  Management concluded, based on such review, that our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined by Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on

Form 10-Q.  The ineffectiveness of these disclosure controls is due to the matters described below in “Internal Control over Financial Reporting.”

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.  Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our President and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that such controls and procedures are not effective at the “reasonable assurance” level.  The ineffectiveness of these disclosure controls is due to the matters described below in “Internal Control over Financial Reporting.”

 

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act. Management assessed the effectiveness of the internal controls over financial reporting as of March 31, 2013, using the framework set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based upon this assessment, our management concluded that, as of March 31, 2013, the internal controls over financial reporting were not effective. The reportable conditions and material weakness relate to a limited segregation of duties. Segregation of duties within our company is limited due to the small number of employees that are assigned to positions that involve the processing of financial information. Specifically, certain key financial accounting and reporting personnel had an expansive scope of duties that allowed for the creation, review, approval and processing of financial data without independent review and authorization for preparation of schedules and resulting financial statements and related disclosures. We did not maintain a sufficient depth of personnel with an appropriate level of accounting knowledge, experience and training in the selection and application of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles commensurate with financial reporting requirements. Accordingly, we place undue reliance on the finance team at corporate headquarters, specifically the executive who is our President and Chief Financial Officer along with outside accounting consulting. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness. This material weakness could result in material misstatements of significant accounts and disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to our interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. In addition, due to limited staffing, we are not always able to detect minor errors or omissions in reporting.

 

Going forward, management anticipates that additional staff will be necessary to mitigate these weaknesses, as well as to implement other planned improvements.  Additional staff will enable us to document and apply transactional and periodic controls procedures, permit a better review and approval process and improve quality of financial reporting.  However, the potential addition of new staff is contingent on obtaining additional financing, and there is no assurance that we will be able to do so.

Changes in Internal Control Over financial Reporting

 

Management believes that its unaudited condensed financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 fairly presented, in all material respects, its financial condition and results of operations.  During the three months ended March 31, 2013, there were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
