General

 

Consolidation Services, Inc. (the “Company” or “CNSV”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 26, 2007.


Until January 1, 2010, the Company’s sole sources of revenues were from its coal mining and timber harvesting operations on approximately 12,000 contiguous acres in Tennessee. It also held the mineral rights for oil & gas on those properties. The Company discontinued its coal mining and timber harvesting operations on January 1, 2010 via a spin-off while maintaining its oil and gas rights in the Company (“Legacy Properties”). On April 1, 2010, the Company executed an acquisition of producing oil and gas properties, in Kentucky and Tennessee. The Company’s current operations consist primarily of the maintenance and production of those oil and gas mineral reserves.  It has not begun exploration or production of its oil and gas rights on its Legacy Properties.


Hydrocarbons Holdings


On February 21, 2013, the Company entered into a Bill of Sale and Assignment, Release and Assumption Agreement with Hydrocarbons Holdings, Inc. (“HH”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company whereby substantially all of the Company’s oil and gas assets and liabilities were transferred to HH effective as of February 28, 2013.








Mongolia Equipment Rental Corporation


On March 21, 2013, Consolidation Services, Inc. (the “Company”) through its wholly owned subsidiary, Mongolia Equipment Rental Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Franchisee”) entered into an International Franchise Agreement (the “Franchise Agreement”) with Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation and Hertz Equipment Rental System (collectively “Franchisor”).  


Under the Franchise Agreement the Franchisee will operate a business of renting, selling and maintaining equipment primarily for use in construction, materials handling and commercial and industrial activities (“Equipment Rental Business”) under the unique plan or system of the Franchisor (the “System”) in the country of Mongolia.


The license granted to Franchisee under the Franchise Agreement shall commence on July 1, 2013 and continue for a period of ten (10) years, unless renewed or sooner terminated.  The Franchisee shall have the option to renew the license for two (2) successive five (5) year terms, subject to the terms of the then current Hertz Equipment Rental System International Franchise Agreement, and provided such terms shall preserve Franchisee’s right to renew for an additional two successive five year periods and will not require the payment of an initial fee by Franchisee and the Franchisee is not in default of the Franchise Agreement.

Hertz Equipment Rental Mongolia -- Overview


Strategy


We have secured the exclusive license to operate a Hertz Equipment Rental franchise business utilizing proprietary Hertz Equipment brands, training and systems throughout the country of Mongolia.  Hertz proprietary system (the “Hertz System”) combines information technology, management processes and other management tools that maximize operating efficiencies in the equipment rental business. The Hertz System is focused on customer service differentiation, customer segmentation, rate management, fleet management and disciplined cost control. This strategy calls for a consistently superior standard of service to customers; an increasing proportion of revenues derived from larger accounts; a targeted presence in construction, infrastructure, mining, industrial and specialty markets; and the profitable deployment of rental assets for optimal return on investment.


We intend to commence these operations in the summer of 2014.  


We intend to focus on creating an efficient and competitive Hertz Equipment Rental business operation in Mongolia through diligent management of the rental process, enhanced customer service capabilities and sustained cost efficiencies. Specifically we will focus on:


a. Superior customer service levels;

b. Longer term rentals to larger international and Mongolian mining and construction customers and to government infrastructure development and maintenance projects;

c. Industrial customers in and around Ulaanbaatar where we believe that our Hertz brand and full service inventory will give us a competitive advantage;

d. Power generation, water pumps, air conditioning and heating;

e. Hertz and equipment vendor training modules for employees:

f. The Hertz System proprietary information technology and procedures; and

g. Hertz System efficiency practices for maximizing equipment utilization by reducing the average number of equipment units unavailable for rent.


Industry Overview and Economic Outlook


We intend to serve four principal end markets for equipment rental in Mongolia: mining, industrial, commercial construction; and infrastructure development & maintenance;


a. Mining

b. Industrial/non-construction rentals to manufacturers, transportation, utilities, retail and other industries;

c. Commercial (or private non-residential) construction rentals related to the construction and remodeling of office, lodging, healthcare and other commercial facilities; and

d. Infrastructure development and maintenance; including roads, bridges, tunnels, power plans, airports, railroads, business parks and other government projects.


Based on our analysis of leading industry forecasts and broader economic indicators, we expect that all of our end markets will continue growing rapidly. Mongolia is predicted to continue being one of the fastest growing economies in the World for the next two decades, by the World Bank. We believe that the equipment rental industry can achieve geographically superior year-over-year revenue growth based on forecasts for Mongolia over the next 7 to 10 years.

The large and diverse fleet we intend to deploy will allow us to serve large customers that require substantial quantities and/or wide varieties of equipment. We believe our ability to serve such customers should allow us to outperform the competition and achieve a market leadership position.


We will manage our rental fleet using the Hertz System, utilizing an approach that focuses on satisfying customer demand and optimizing utilization levels. We will closely monitor repair and maintenance expense and will identify, based on Hertz experience with a large and diverse fleet, the optimum time to dispose of an asset. Our fleet will be maintained in-house according to its manufacturer's recommended maintenance and Hertz guidelines.


Significant Purchasing Power. Through Hertz Equipment and their purchase of large amounts of equipment, contractor supplies and other items, we may enjoy more favorable pricing, warranty and other terms with vendors than our competition in Mongolia.


Hertz Equipment International Customers. Our sales force will be dedicated to establishing and expanding relationships with large companies, particularly those with a national and international presence. International customers may more easily recognize our “Hertz Equipment Rental” brand than our competition or may already be a satisfied customer of Hertz in another market. We will offer our new and existing Hertz Equipment customers the benefits of a consistent level of service across Mongolia, a wide selection of equipment and a single point of contact for all their equipment needs.


Operating Efficiencies. Our Hertz Equipment Franchise allows us to benefit from the following operating efficiencies, among others:

Advertising. We may promote our business through local and national advertising in various media, including trade publications, yellow pages, the Internet, radio and direct mail. We will also regularly participate in industry trade shows and conferences and sponsor a variety of local promotional events.


Suppliers


Hertz Equipment maintains preferred vendor relationships with a sufficient number of suppliers per category of equipment that we will be able to satisfy our anticipated volume and business requirements. Through Hertz, we believe there will be sufficient and timely new product available at competitive pricing to meet anticipated customer demand. Additionally, we will have access to used equipment for sale from Hertz company-owned locations in China and other locations to fill more immediate customer needs.


The Hertz System


In support of our rental business, we will utilize the Hertz System, a proprietary Hertz Equipment information technology and management system that will facilitate rapid and informed decision-making and enable us to respond quickly to changing market conditions. Leveraging information technology to achieve greater efficiencies and improve customer service is a critical element of the Hertz Equipment strategy. Management personnel can access these systems 24 hours a day.


The Hertz System will:


a. enable personnel to (i) determine equipment availability, (ii) access all equipment and arrange for equipment to be delivered directly to the customer, (iii) monitor business activity on a real-time basis and (iv) obtain customized reports on a wide range of operating and financial data, including equipment utilization, rental rate trends, maintenance histories and customer transaction histories;

b. permit customers to access their accounts online; and

c. allow management to obtain job enhancing reports highlighting specific and detailed  operational and financial data.


The Hertz System and website will be supported by the IT department at Hertz. Hertz will train our personnel; occasionally upgrade and customize our information technology and system procedures; provide hardware and technology support; operate a support desk to assist personnel in the day-to-day use of the information technology; extend the Hertz System to newly built or acquired locations; and manage our Hertz Equipment website.


Competition


The Mongolian equipment rental industry is highly fragmented. Our competitors will primarily include small, independent businesses with one or two pieces of equipment, a newly opened regional competitor that operates in the south, and equipment vendors and dealers who both sell and rent equipment directly to customers. We believe we are well positioned to take advantage of this environment.




7





Environmental and Safety Regulations


Upon launch, or in the future, our operations may be subject to regulations governing environmental protection and occupational health and safety matters. These may regulate issues such as wastewater, storm water, solid and hazardous wastes and materials, and air quality. Our proposed operations generally do not raise environmental risks, but we will use and store hazardous materials as part of maintaining our rental equipment fleet and the overall operations of our business, dispose of solid and hazardous waste and wastewater from equipment washing, and store and dispense petroleum products from above-ground storage tanks located at certain of our locations. Under current or future environmental and safety laws, we could sometime in the future be liable for, among other things, (i) the costs of investigating and remediating contamination at our sites as well as sites to which we sent hazardous wastes for disposal or treatment, regardless of fault, and (ii) fines and penalties for non-compliance.


Hydrocarbons Holdings - Overview


HH could occasionally pursue oil and gas drilling opportunities through joint ventures with industry partners as a means of limiting our drilling risk. HH’s prospects are generally brought to them by other oil and gas companies or individuals. HH identifies and evaluates prospective oil and gas properties to determine both the degree of risk and the commercial potential of the project. HH seeks projects that offer a mix of low risk with a potential for steady reliable revenue as well as projects with a higher risk that may have a larger return. In addition to reserve reports and other 3rd party evaluations, HH strives to use modern technology such as 3-D seismic, where applicable, to help them identify potential oil and gas reservoirs and to mitigate risk. HH seeks to maximize the value of its asset base by exploring and developing properties that have both production and reserve growth potential. HH sometimes seeks industry partners to maintain a balanced working interest in all of their projects.


Competitive Business Conditions

 

The oil and gas exploration and production industry is highly competitive. In the Kentucky and Tennessee area, HH competes with several large and well-known public and private companies, which have substantially greater financial and operational resources than HH is expected to have.  Competition for equipment, personnel and services is expected to be intense.  Accordingly, these competitors may be able to spend greater amounts on acquisitions of oil and gas properties of merit, on exploration of their properties and on development of their properties. In addition, they may be able to obtain more geological and other data in the exploration of oil and gas properties. This could result in competitors having properties of greater quality and value to prospective investors. This competition could have an adverse effect on HH’s ability to identify or finance further exploration of properties, in which they currently have an interest or may seek to acquire.


HH also competes with other junior exploration and production (E&P) companies for financing from investors that have an interest in deploying capital into junior E&P companies. The presence of competing junior E&P companies may have an adverse effect on HH’s ability to raise additional capital in order to fund its exploration and development programs if investors are of the view that investments in competitors are more attractive.  Additionally, there is competition for other resources, including, but not limited to: petroleum engineers, geologists, camp staff, helicopters, mineral exploration supplies and drill rigs.




8





HH’s success depends on the successful acquisition, exploration and development of commercial grade mineral rights, oil and gas leases or natural resource properties as well as the prevailing prices for petroleum or other natural resources to generate future revenues and operating cash flow. Petroleum and other natural resource commodity prices have been extremely volatile in recent years and are affected by many factors outside of HH’s control. The volatile nature of the energy and commodity markets makes it difficult to estimate future prices of petroleum and other resources; however, any prolonged period of depressed prices would have a material adverse effect on HH’s results of operations and financial condition. Such pricing factors are largely beyond HH’s control, and may result in fluctuations in its earnings. We believe there are significant opportunities available to HH in the natural resource production industry including oil and gas E&P.


Marketing/Distribution

 

HH has existing contracts with various oil and gas service providers for the extraction of oil and gas and for the transportation, purchase and sale of the production. HH utilizes buyers in the area such as Barrett Oil Purchasing, Inc. and Coomer Oil LLC, who frequently purchase their extracted oil and gas.  


Government Regulation


Oil and Gas operations:


Oil and gas production is subject to various types of federal, state and local laws and regulations. These laws and regulations govern a wide range of matters, including the drilling and spacing of wells, allowable rates of production, restoration of surface areas, plugging and abandonment of wells and specific requirements for the operation of wells.


The oil and gas service providers utilized by HH are obligated to conduct drilling operations in compliance with all applicable Federal, state and local laws and regulations. Such regulations include: requiring local permits for the drilling of wells; maintaining bonding requirements in order to drill or operate wells; implementing spill prevention plans; submitting notification and receiving permits relating to the presence, use and release of certain materials incidental to oil and gas operations; and regulating the location of wells; the method of drilling and casing wells; the use, transportation, storage and disposal of fluids and materials used in connection with drilling and production activities; surface usage and the restoration of properties upon which wells have been drilled; the plugging and abandoning of wells. HH’s operations are or will also be subject to various conservation matters, including: the regulation of the size of drilling and spacing units or proration units, the number of wells which may be drilled in a unit and the unitization or pooling of oil and gas properties. In this regard, some states allow the forced pooling or integration of tracts to facilitate exploration while other states rely on voluntary pooling of lands and leases, which may make it more difficult to develop oil and gas properties. In addition, state conservation laws establish maximum rates of production from oil and gas wells, generally limit the venting or flaring of gas, and impose certain requirements regarding the ratable purchase of production. These regulations could limit the amounts of oil and gas HH may be able to produce from their wells or could limit the number of wells or the locations at which HH may be able to drill.


While it is not possible to quantify all future costs of compliance by HH, or its service providers with all applicable federal and state laws, those costs are expected to be significant. Although HH’s service providers typically accrue adequate amounts to cover these costs, their future operating results could be adversely affected if they later determined these accruals to be insufficient.

 



9





HH’s failure to comply with any laws and regulations may result in the assessment of administrative, civil and criminal penalties, the imposition of injunctive relief or both. Moreover, changes in any of these laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on HH’s business. In view of the many uncertainties with respect to current and future laws and regulations, including their applicability to HH, we cannot predict the overall effect of such laws and regulations on future operations.


Environmental Laws

 

The recent trend in environmental legislation and regulation is generally toward stricter standards, and this trend is expected to continue. These laws and regulations may: require additional permitting or other authorizations before construction, drilling, mining or other activities commence; limit or prohibit construction, drilling mining or other activities on certain lands lying within wilderness and other protected areas, and; impose substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from our operations. Generally, permits required for natural resource extraction are subject to revocation, modification and renewal by the issuing authorities. Governmental authorities have the power to enforce compliance with their regulations, and violations are subject to fines, penalties or injunctions.  


HH is subject to numerous environmental laws and regulations. HH strives to comply with all applicable environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. HH believes that its operations are in compliance with all applicable environmental laws and regulations. Federal, state and local laws and regulations are frequently modified and HH cannot predict accurately the effect, if any, they will have on its business in the future. In many instances, the regulations have not been finalized and continue to evolve. Even where regulations have been adopted, they are subject to varying and contradicting interpretations and implementation. In some cases, compliance can only be achieved by capital expenditure and HH cannot accurately predict what capital expenditures, if any, may be required.

 

Legislation has been proposed in the past and continues to be evaluated in Congress from time to time that would reclassify certain oil and gas exploration and production wastes as “hazardous wastes.” This reclassification would make these wastes subject to much more stringent storage, treatment, disposal and cleanup requirements, which could have a significant adverse effect on HH’s operating costs. Initiatives to further regulate the disposal of oil and gas wastes are also proposed in certain states from time to time and may include initiatives at the county, municipal and local government levels. These various initiatives could have a similar adverse effect on HH’s operating costs.

 

HH is subject to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ("CERCLA"), and similar state laws that impose liability, without regard to fault or the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons that are considered to have contributed to the release of a "hazardous substance" into the environment.  These persons include the owner or operator of the disposal site or sites where the release occurred and companies that disposed or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances found at the site. Persons who are or were responsible for releases of hazardous substances under CERCLA may be subject to joint and several liabilities for the costs of cleaning up the hazardous substances that have been released into the environment and for damages to the environment. As the mineral rights holder for land upon which drilling and other energy-related operations are anticipated to take place, HH may be held strictly liable as a responsible party under CERCLA, along with any of its lessees.  Furthermore, neighboring landowners and other third parties may file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the hazardous substances released into the environment.  




10





HH could be subject to the Federal Clean Water Act and corresponding state laws which affect operations by imposing restrictions on discharges into regulated waters. Permits requiring regular monitoring and compliance with effluent limitations and reporting requirements govern the discharge of pollutants into regulated waters. New requirements under the Federal Clean Water Act and corresponding state laws could cause HH’s oil and gas operators to incur significant additional costs that adversely affect its future operating results.


HH could be subject to Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”).  RCRA, which was enacted in 1976, affects U.S. mining operations by establishing “cradle to grave” requirements for the treatment, storage and disposal of hazardous wastes. Typically, the only hazardous materials found on a mine site are those contained in products used in vehicles and for machinery maintenance. Oil and natural gas resources underlying HH (or its subsidiaries or third parties) properties may be considered hazardous waste material under RCRA.


HH could be affected by the Federal Endangered Species Act and counterpart state legislation protect species threatened with possible extinction. Protection of endangered species may have the effect of prohibiting or delaying HH (or its subsidiaries) and its lessees from obtaining mining permits and may include restrictions on timber harvesting, road building and other mining or forestry activities in areas containing the affected species. A number of species indigenous to Central Appalachia are protected under the Endangered Species Act.  HH does not believe there are any species protected under the Endangered Species Act that would materially and adversely affect its ability to drill for oil and gas on its properties. Additional species on HH’s properties may receive protected status under the Endangered Species Act and additional currently protected species may be discovered within its properties.  


Patents and Trademarks


We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patent or trademark.


Employees


The Company currently has six executive staff members, a CEO, President, CFO, COO, EVP and Vice President of Legal Affairs.


ITEM 1A. - RISK FACTORS


As a smaller reporting company we are not required to provide a statement of risk factors. However, we believe this information may be valuable to our shareholders for this filing. We reserve the right to not provide risk factors in our future filings. Our primary risk factors and other considerations include:


Risks Related to Doing Business in Mongolia


There are many factors that can affect the future performance of the Company in Mongolia.  These factors include, but are not limited to external factors, such as:


• interest rates in financial markets outside Mongolia;

• the impact of changes in the credit rating of Mongolia;

• the impact of changes in the international prices of commodities;

• economic conditions in Mongolia’s major export markets;

• the decisions of international financial institutions, such as the International Monetary Fund (“IMF”), Asian Development Bank (“ADB”) and World Bank, regarding the terms  of their financial assistance to Mongolia;



11





• armed conflicts, terrorist attacks and acts of war;

• the general state of the global economy;

  as well as internal factors, such as:

• general economic and business conditions in Mongolia;

• changes in Government policies and regulations;

• additional present and future exchange rates of the Togrog, the national currency of Mongolia;

• the impact of business cycles and downturns in Mongolia;

• foreign currency reserves;

• the level of domestic debt;

• domestic inflation;

• the ability of Mongolia to implement important economic and structural reforms;

• the levels of foreign direct and portfolio investment;

• delays in the development of mining and infrastructure assets, which would affect equipment leasing;

• pending and potential future disputes with investment partners relating to important mines;

• extreme climatic events affecting Mongolia;

• the levels of domestic interest rates;

• the social and political situation in Mongolia;

• longer payment cycles and greater difficulty in account receivable collections;

• time and resources required to comply with both foreign regulatory requirements and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; and

• difficulty in maintaining effective communications with employees and customers due to distance, language and cultural barriers.


The Company cautions that these and other factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Therefore, undue reliance should not be placed on them.


Establishing a new business may be more difficult, costly or time consuming than expected, which may adversely affect our results and negatively affect the value of our stock.


The success of new operations in Mongolia will depend, in part, on our ability to secure licensing, permits, facilities, personnel, financing and customers. If we are unable to achieve these objectives within the anticipated time frame, or at all, the anticipated operations or benefits may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected, and the value of our common stock may be affected adversely.


We depend significantly upon the continued involvement of our present and future management.


Our success depends to a significant degree upon the involvement of our management, who are in charge of our strategic planning and operations. We have no prior experience in the equipment rental business.  We will need to attract and retain talented individuals in order to implement our equipment rental business in Mongolia.  In order to successfully implement and manage our business plan, we will be dependent upon, among other things, successfully recruiting qualified managerial and field personnel having experience in the equipment rental business and/or oil and gas production, mineral exploration and development and other natural resource businesses. The competition for such persons could be intense and there are no assurances that these individuals will be available to us. In addition, our future success will depend in large part on our ability to retain key consultants and advisors. Our inability to retain their services could negatively affect our business and our ability to execute our business strategy.

General Business Risks


We have a limited operating history and limited historical financial information upon which you may evaluate our performance.


We only have a limited history and we are subject to all risks inherent in a developing business enterprise.  Our likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with a new business in general and those specific to the equipment rental business and the competitive and regulatory environment in which we operate. You should consider, among other factors, our prospects for success in light of the risks and uncertainties encountered by companies that, like us, are in their early stage.  We may not successfully address these risks and uncertainties or successfully implement our operating and acquisition strategies.  If we fail to do so, it could materially harm our business to the point of having to cease operations and could impair the value of our common stock to the point investors may lose their entire investment.  Even if we accomplish these objectives, we may not generate positive cash flows or profits we anticipate in the future.


Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  


The accompanying financial statements to this report have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern to meet its obligations and continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing, achievement of profitable operations and/or the discovery, exploration, development and sale of oil and gas reserves.  As discussed in the notes to the accompanying audited financial statements, the Company’s losses from operations since inception raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.


In order to meet its obligations and continue as a going concern, the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing, achievement of profitable operations and/or the discovery, exploration, development and sale of oil and gas reserves.   Management’s plans include initiating operations in the equipment rental business in Mongolia during the summer of 2014 through its wholly owned subsidiary, Mongolia Equipment Rental Corporation; investing in and developing potential natural resources that may exist on or under the properties owned by HH (a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company) in Tennessee and Kentucky, and/or to acquire additional revenue producing assets.  Management intends to use advances from related parties, asset based lending, borrowing, or financing from the issuance or exercise of its securities to mitigate the effects of its cash position, however, no assurance can be given that such sources of financing, if and when required, will be available.  


The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plan described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations.  The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.  


We will incur increased costs and demands upon management as a result of complying with the laws and regulations that affect public companies, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition, business and prospects.





13





As a public company, we incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses, including costs associated with public company reporting and corporate governance requirements. These requirements include compliance with Section 404 and other provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).


Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.  In connection with the implementation of the necessary procedures and practices related to internal control over financial reporting, we may identify deficiencies.  If we are unable to comply with the internal controls requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, that may interfere with the ability of investors to trade our securities and our ability to list our shares on any national securities exchange.


The increased costs, associated with operating as a public company, has and will continue to increase our net loss, and may require us to reduce costs in other areas of our business. Additionally, if these requirements divert our management’s attention from other business concerns, they could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, business and prospects.   If we fail to establish and maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately or prevent fraud.  Any inability to report and file our financial results accurately and timely could harm our reputation and adversely impact the trading price of our common stock.


If we fail to establish and maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately or prevent fraud.  Any inability to report and file our financial results accurately and timely could harm our reputation and adversely impact the trading price of our common stock.


Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud.  If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we may not be able to manage our business as effectively as we would if an effective control environment existed, and our business and reputation with investors may be harmed.  Notwithstanding our diligence, certain internal controls deficiencies may not be detected.  As a result, any internal control deficiencies may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and access to capital.


Turnover of members of our management and our ability to attract and retain key personnel may affect our ability to efficiently manage our business and execute our strategy.


Our success is dependent, in part, on the experience and skills of our management team, and competition in our industry and the business world for top management talent is generally significant. Although we will try to generally have competitive pay packages, we can provide no assurance that our efforts to attract and retain senior management staff will be successful. Moreover, given the volatility in our stock price, it may be more difficult and expensive to recruit and retain employees, particularly senior management, through grants of stock or stock options. This in turn could place greater pressure on the Company to increase the cash component of its compensation packages, which may adversely affect our operating results. If we are unable to fill and keep filled all of our senior management positions, or if we lose the services of any key member of our senior management team and are unable to find a suitable replacement in a timely fashion, we may be challenged to effectively manage our business and execute our strategy.





14





Our strategy of developing the existing exploration properties of HH and acquiring additional mineral rights may not produce positive financial results for us.


Our strategy of developing the existing exploration properties of HH and acquiring additional mineral rights is subject to a variety of risks, including the:


· Inability to locate valuable minerals at the properties;

· Failure or unanticipated delays in developing the exploration properties where HH has mineral rights;

· Property ownership rights on the property where the mineral rights are located;

· Inability to negotiate favorable mineral rights agreements on satisfactory terms and conditions;

· Increases in the prices of equipment due to increased competition for acquisition opportunities or other factors; and

· Inability to sell any extracted minerals


If we are not able to successfully address these risks, it would materially harm our business to the point of having to cease operations and impair the value of our common stock to the point investors may lose their entire investment.


If we do not obtain new financings in an amount sufficient to establish our equipment rental operations and pursue development activities at HH’s properties, our operations will be reduced.


To date, we have relied on recent private placement financings in order to fund exploration and development of the Company’s properties.  We are presently without funds to carry out our plan of operations.  While our financing requirements may be reduced if we successfully extract valuable minerals, any impairment in our ability to raise additional funds through financings would reduce our ability to fund our equipment rental operations with the result that our plan of operations may be adversely affected and potential recoveries reduced or delayed.  


We face intense competition.


We compete against many other energy and natural resource companies, some of which have considerably greater resources and abilities. These competitors may have greater marketing and sales capacity, established distribution networks, significant goodwill and global name recognition.  They also have significantly longer operating histories and more established relationship within the energy and natural resource industry.  They can use their experience and resources against us in a variety of competitive ways.  Although we intend to offer a competitively priced model to acquire assets and/or companies, there can be no assurance that any future price competition by our competitors, if it develops, will not have a material adverse effect on our operations which would prevent us from carrying out our acquisition strategy.  


Our business strategy, in part, depends upon our ability to complete and manage acquisitions of assets and/or of other companies.


Our business strategy, in part, is to grow through acquisition of assets and/or other businesses, which depend on our ability to identify, negotiate, complete and integrate suitable acquisitions.  (See Item 1 - Business.) Even if we complete an acquisition we may experience:


· difficulties in integrating any assets and/or acquired companies, personnel and products into our existing business;



15





· delays in realizing the benefits of the acquired company or products;

· significant demands on the Companys management, technical, financial and other resources;   

· diversion of our managements time and attention to unexpected problems;

· higher costs of integration than we anticipated;

· difficulties in retaining key employees of the acquired businesses who are necessary to manage these acquisitions; and/or

· anticipated benefits of acquisitions may not materialize as planned.


Current economic recession and political turmoil could materially adversely affect the Company.


The Company’s future operations and performance depend significantly on worldwide economic and political conditions. Uncertainty about current global economic conditions poses a risk as consumers and businesses have postponed spending in response to tighter credit, negative financial news and/or declines in income or asset values, which could have a material negative effect on the demand for our potential energy resources, of which there are no assurances such exist in economically feasible quantities or qualities, and a resulting drop in the prices of such items, actual demand for energy and natural resources could also differ materially from the Company’s expectations. Other factors that could influence demand include continuing increases in fuel and other energy costs, conditions in the residential real estate and mortgage markets, the financial crisis, labor and healthcare costs, access to credit, consumer confidence, and other macroeconomic factors. These and geopolitical events such as war and terrorist actions could have a material adverse effect on demand for the Company’s products and services and on the Company’s financial condition, operating results, and cash flows.


Our business is subject to extensive regulation.


As many of our activities are subject to federal, state and local regulation, and as these rules are subject to constant change or amendment, there can be no assurance that our operations will not be adversely affected by new or different government regulations, laws or court decisions applicable to our operations.


Government regulation and liability for environmental matters may adversely affect our business and results of operations.


Crude oil, natural gas and other natural resource extraction operations are subject to extensive federal, state and local government regulations, which may be changed from time to time. Matters subject to regulation include discharge permits for drilling operations, drilling bonds, reports concerning operations, the spacing of wells, unitization and pooling of properties and taxation. From time to time, regulatory agencies have imposed price controls and limitations on production by restricting the rate of flow of crude oil and natural gas wells below actual production capacity in order to conserve supplies of crude oil and natural gas. There are federal, state and local laws and regulations primarily relating to protection of human health and the environment applicable to the development, production, handling, storage, transportation and disposal of crude oil and natural gas, byproducts thereof and other substances and materials produced or used in connection with crude oil and natural gas operations. In addition, we may inherit liability for environmental damages caused by previous owners of property we purchase or lease. As a result, we may incur substantial liabilities to third parties or governmental entities. We are also subject to changing and extensive tax laws, the effects of which cannot be predicted. The implementation of new, or the modification of existing, laws or regulations could have a material adverse effect on us.




16





The crude oil and natural gas reserves we report in our SEC filings are estimates and may prove to be inaccurate.


There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating crude oil and natural gas reserves and their estimated values. The reserves we report in our filings with the SEC are only estimates and such estimates may prove to be inaccurate because of these uncertainties. Reservoir engineering is a subjective and inexact process of estimating underground accumulations of crude oil and natural gas that cannot be measured in an exact manner. Estimates of economically recoverable crude oil and natural gas reserves depend upon a number of variable factors, such as historical production from the area compared with production from other producing areas and assumptions concerning effects of regulations by governmental agencies, future crude oil and natural gas prices, future operating costs, severance and excise taxes, development costs and work-over and remedial costs. Some or all of these assumptions may in fact vary considerably from actual results. For these reasons, estimates of the economically recoverable quantities of crude oil and natural gas attributable to any particular group of properties, classifications of such reserves based on risk of recovery, and estimates of the future net cash flows expected there from prepared by different engineers or by the same engineers, but at different times may vary substantially. Accordingly, reserve estimates may be subject to downward or upward adjustment. Actual production, revenue and expenditures with respect to our reserves will likely vary from estimates, and such variances may be material.


Crude oil and natural gas development, re-completion of wells from one reservoir to another reservoir, restoring wells to production and drilling and completing new wells are speculative activities and involve numerous risks and substantial and uncertain costs.


Notwithstanding our entering the equipment rental business in Mongolia, our growth may still depend upon the success of our future development program. Drilling for crude oil and natural gas and reworking existing wells involves numerous risks, including the risk that no commercially productive crude oil or natural gas reservoirs will be encountered. The cost of drilling, completing and operating wells is substantial and uncertain, and drilling operations may be curtailed, delayed or cancelled as a result of a variety of factors beyond our control, including:


· unexpected drilling conditions;

· pressure or irregularities in formations;

· equipment failures or accidents;

· inability to obtain leases on economic terms, where applicable;

· adverse weather conditions;

· compliance with governmental requirements; and

· shortages or delays in the availability of drilling rigs or crews and the delivery of equipment.


Drilling or reworking is a highly speculative activity. Even when fully and correctly utilized, modern well completion techniques such as hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling do not guarantee that we will find crude oil and/or natural gas in our wells. Hydraulic fracturing involves pumping a fluid with or without particulates into a formation at high pressure, thereby creating fractures in the rock and leaving the particulates in the fractures to ensure that the fractures remain open, thereby potentially increasing the ability of the reservoir to produce oil or gas. Horizontal drilling involves drilling horizontally out from an existing vertical well bore, thereby potentially increasing the area and reach of the well bore that is in contact with the reservoir. Our future drilling activities may not be successful and, if unsuccessful, such failure would have an adverse effect on our future results of operations and financial condition. We cannot assure you that our overall drilling success rate or our drilling success rate for activities within a particular geographic area will not decline. We may identify and develop prospects



17





through a number of methods, some of which do not include lateral drilling or hydraulic fracturing, and some of which may be unproven. The drilling and results for these prospects may be particularly uncertain. Our drilling schedule may vary from our capital budget. The final determination with respect to the drilling of any scheduled or budgeted prospects will be dependent on a number of factors, including, but not limited to:


· the results of previous development efforts and the acquisition, review and analysis of data;

· the availability of sufficient capital resources to us and the other participants, if any, for the drilling of the prospects;

· the approval of the prospects by other participants, if any, after additional data has been compiled;

· economic and industry conditions at the time of drilling, including prevailing and anticipated prices for crude oil and natural gas and the availability of drilling rigs and crews;

· our financial resources and results;

· the availability of leases and permits on reasonable terms for the prospects; and

· the success of our drilling technology.


We cannot assure you that these projects can be successfully developed or that the wells discussed will, if drilled, encounter reservoirs of commercially productive crude oil or natural gas. There are numerous uncertainties in estimating quantities of proved reserves, including many factors beyond our control.


Crude oil and natural gas prices are highly volatile in general and low prices will negatively affect our financial results.


Our revenues, operating results, profitability, cash flow, future rate of growth and ability to borrow funds or obtain additional capital, as well as the carrying value of our properties, are substantially dependent upon prevailing prices of crude oil and natural gas. Lower crude oil and natural gas prices also may reduce the amount of crude oil and natural gas that we can produce economically. Historically, the markets for crude oil and natural gas have been very volatile, and such markets are likely to continue to be volatile in the future. Prices for crude oil and natural gas are subject to wide fluctuation in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of and demand for crude oil and natural gas, market uncertainty and a variety of additional factors that are beyond our control, including:


· worldwide and domestic supplies of crude oil and natural gas;

· the level of consumer product demand;

· weather conditions;

· domestic and foreign governmental regulations;

· the price and availability of alternative fuels;

· political instability or armed conflict in oil producing regions;

· the price and level of foreign imports; and

· overall domestic and global economic conditions.


It is extremely difficult to predict future crude oil and natural gas price movements with any certainty. Declines in crude oil and natural gas prices may materially adversely affect our financial condition, liquidity, ability to finance planned capital expenditures and results of operations. Further, oil and gas prices do not move in tandem.




18





If the cost of recovering mineralized material at the properties is higher than anticipated, then our financial condition and ability to pursue additional exploration will be adversely affected.


We have proceeded with petroleum engineering and geological surveys and sampling.  If the actual costs are greater than anticipated, then cash used in the exploration activities at the properties will be greater than anticipated.  An increase in the funds used in sampling and surveying activities will cause us to have fewer funds for other expenses, such as administrative and overhead expenses and exploration of our other mineral properties.  In this event, our financial condition will be adversely affected and will have fewer funds with which to pursue our exploration programs.


Exploration activities are inherently hazardous.


Mineral exploration activities involve many risks that even a combination of experience, knowledge and careful evaluation may not be able to overcome.  Operations that we undertake will be subject to all the hazards and risks normally incidental to the exploration for minerals, any of which could result in work stoppages, damage to property and possible environmental damage.  The nature of these risks are such that liabilities might result in us being forced to incur significant costs that could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and business prospects.


There may be challenges to the titles to our property.


Titles to mineral rights in the United States involves certain inherent risks due to the impossibility of determining the validity of unpatented claims from real estate records, as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyance history characteristic of many mineral rights.  Although we believe we have conducted reasonable investigations (in accordance with standard industry practice) of the validity of ownership of and the ability of certain holders of certain claims to transfer to certain rights and other interests therein to us, there can be no assurance that we hold good and marketable title to all of our U.S. mineral rights, leases or properties.  There may be challenges to the title to our properties.  If there are title defects with respect to any of the properties, we might be required to compensate other persons or perhaps reduce or change our interest in the affected property.  Also, in any such case, the investigation and resolution of title issues would divert management's time from ongoing development programs.  Any significant successful challenges to our mineral rights would cause us to cease operations and for our investors to lose some or all of their investment.  We have conducted limited reviews of title and obtained representations regarding ownership from holders of mineral rights.  Our practice will be, if possible, to obtain title insurance with respect to our major mineral rights. This insurance however may not be sufficient to cover loss of investment or guarantee of future profit.


If we lose the services of our Chief Executive Officer our operations would be disrupted and our business would be materially harmed.


Our operations rely significantly on the continued services of our CEO, Gary Kucher.  He successfully identified, negotiated and executed the Franchise Agreement with Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation.  If we were to lose his services, our ability to execute our business plan would be materially impaired until a replacement could be retained.


In addition, as disclosed in their biographies contained herein, some of our officers and directors work with other companies in addition to their work for us.  If any of their services become unavailable that, too, may have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Climate change and related regulatory responses may affect our business.

 

Climate change as a result of emissions of greenhouse gases is a significant topic of discussion and may generate U.S. federal and other regulatory responses in the near future. It is impracticable to predict with any certainty the effects of climate change on our business or the regulatory responses to it, although we recognize that they could be significant. However, it is too soon for us to predict with any certainty the ultimate consequences, either directionally or quantitatively, of climate change and related regulatory responses.

 

To the extent that climate change increases the risk of natural disasters or other disruptive events in the areas in which we operate, we could be harmed. While we maintain business recovery plans that are intended to allow us to recover from natural disasters or other events that can be disruptive to our business, our plans may not fully protect us from all such disasters or events.

 

Compliance with changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure will result in additional expenses and pose challenges for our management.


Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the rules and regulations promulgated there under, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC regulations, have created uncertainty for public companies and significantly increased the costs and risks associated with accessing the U.S. public markets. Our management team needs to devote significant time and financial resources to comply with both existing and evolving standards for public companies, which leads to increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating activities to compliance activities.


We are subject to all governmental rules, laws and regulations relating to the mining industry in the U.S., and we fully intend to comply therewith.  However, there is no assurance the governmental agencies having jurisdiction over us, our operations and properties, will not enact laws, rules and/or regulations in the future which may have an adverse consolidation on us and our operations.


Risks Related to our Securities


The market price for our common stock may be volatile, and you may not be able to sell our stock at a favorable price or at all.


Many factors could cause the market price of our common stock to rise and fall, including:


· actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly results of operations;

· changes in market valuations of companies in our industry;

· changes in expectations of future financial performance;

· fluctuations in stock market prices and volumes;

· issuances of dilutive common stock or other securities in the future;

· the addition or departure of key personnel;

· announcements by us or our competitors of acquisitions, investments or strategic alliances; and

· the increase or decline in the price of oil and natural gas.


It is possible that the proceeds from sales of our common stock may not equal or exceed the prices you paid for the shares plus the costs and fees of making the sales.




20





Substantial sales of our common stock, or the perception that such sales might occur, could depress the market price of our common stock.


We cannot predict whether future issuances of our common stock or resale in the open market will decrease the market price of our common stock. The consequence of any such issuances or resale of our common stock on our market price may be increased as a result of the fact that our common stock is thinly, or infrequently, traded. The exercise of any options, or the vesting of any restricted stock that we may grant to directors, executive officers and other employees in the future, the issuance of common stock in connection with acquisitions and other issuances of our common stock may decrease the market price of our common stock.


Certain shares of our common stock are restricted from immediate resale.  The lapse of those restrictions, coupled with the sale of the related shares in the market, or the market’s expectation of such sales, could result in an immediate and substantial decline in the market price of our common stock.


Newly issued shares of common stock are restricted from immediate resale in the public market.  The restricted shares are restricted in accordance with Rule 144, which states that if unregistered, restricted securities are to be sold, a minimum of six months must elapse between the later of the date of acquisition of the securities from the issuer or from an affiliate of the issuer, and any resale of those securities in reliance on Rule 144. The Rule 144 restrictive legend remains on the stock until the holder of the stock (unless an affiliate) holds the stock for longer than one year and meets the other requirements of Rule 144 to have the restriction removed.  The sale or resale of those shares in the public market, or the market’s expectation of such sales, may result in an immediate and substantial decline in the market price of our shares.  Such a decline will adversely affect our investors, and make it more difficult for us to raise additional funds through equity offerings in the future.


Holders of our common stock have a risk of potential dilution if we issue additional shares of common stock in the future.


Although our Board of Directors intends to utilize its reasonable business judgment to fulfill its fiduciary obligations to our then existing stockholders in connection with any future issuance of our common stock, the future issuance of additional shares of our common stock would cause immediate, and potentially substantial, dilution to the net tangible book value of those shares of common stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to such transaction.  Any future decrease in the net tangible book value of our issued and outstanding shares could have a material effect on the market value of the shares.


We do not intend to pay cash dividends to our stockholders, so you will not receive any return on your investment in our Company prior to selling your interest in the Company.


The Company has never paid any cash dividends to our stockholders. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for funding growth and, therefore, do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.  As a result, you will not receive any return on your investment prior to selling your shares in our Company and, for the other reasons discussed in this “Risk Factors” section, you may not receive any return on your investment even when you sell your shares in our Company.


Because our directors and officers are among our largest stockholders, they can exert significant control over our business and affairs and have actual or potential interests that may depart from those of our other stockholders.




21





Our directors and officers and/or their affiliates beneficially own or control approximately 30% of the issued and outstanding common stock.  In addition, the holdings of our directors and executive officers may increase in the future upon vesting or other maturation of exercise rights under any of the options or warrants they may hold or in the future be granted or if they otherwise acquire additional shares of our common stock. As a result, in addition to their board seats and offices, such persons will have significant influence over and control all corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, irrespective of how the Companys other stockholders, may vote, including the following actions:


· to elect or defeat the election of our directors;

· to amend or prevent amendment of our Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws;

· to effect or prevent a merger, sale of substantially all assets or other corporate transaction; and

· to control the outcome of any other matter submitted to our stockholders for vote.


In addition, these persons stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our stockholders from realizing a premium over our stock price.


Our management has discretion as to how to use any proceeds from the sale of securities.   


We reserve the right to use any funds obtained from any sale of our securities in any manner which our management deems to be in the best interests of the company and our shareholders in order to address changed circumstances or opportunities.  As a result of the foregoing, our success will be substantially dependent upon the discretion and judgment of management with respect to application and allocation of the net proceeds from any offering of our securities.  Investors for the common stock offered will be entrusting their funds to our management, upon whose judgment and discretion the investors must depend.


Our common stock is subject to restrictions on sales by broker-dealers and penny stock rules, which may be detrimental to investors.

 

Our common stock is subject to Rules 15g-1 through 15g-9 under the Exchange Act, which imposes certain sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell our common stock to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act). For transactions covered by this rule, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale. This rule adversely affects the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and purchasers of our common stock to sell their Shares of our common stock.

 

Additionally, our common stock is subject to SEC regulations applicable to “penny stocks.” Penny stocks include any non-exchange listed equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. The regulations require that prior to any non-exempt buy/sell transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule proscribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market must be delivered by a broker-dealer to the purchaser of such penny stock. This disclosure must include the amount of commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current price quotations for our common stock. The regulations also require that monthly statements be sent to holders of a penny stock that disclose recent price information for the penny stock and information of the limited market for penny stocks. These requirements adversely affect the market liquidity of our common stock.




22





Anti-Takeover, Limited Liability and Indemnification Provisions


Certificate of Incorporation and By-laws.


Under our certificate of incorporation, our Board of Directors may issue additional shares of common or preferred stock. Any additional issuance of common or preferred stock could have the effect of impeding or discouraging the acquisition of control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, including a transaction in which our stockholders would receive a premium over the market price for their shares, and thereby protects the continuity of our management. Specifically, if in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, the Board of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal was not in our best interest, shares could be issued by our Board of Directors without stockholder approval in one or more transactions that might prevent or render more difficult or costly the completion of the takeover by:


· diluting the voting or other rights of the proposed acquirer or insurgent stockholder group,

· putting a substantial voting bloc in institutional or other hands that might undertake to support the incumbent Board of Directors, or

· effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover.


Our certificate of incorporation also allows our Board of Directors to fix the number of directors in the bylaws. Cumulative voting in the election of directors is specifically denied in our certificate of incorporation. The effect of these provisions may be to delay or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder may determine to be in his or its best interest, including attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares held by the stockholders.


Our certificate of incorporation allows for our board of directors to create series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders, which could act as an anti-takeover device.


Our board of directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock without stockholder approval.  Our Board of directors also has the authority to issue up to 20 million shares of preferred stock without further stockholder approval.  As a result, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock.  In addition, our board of directors could authorize the issuance of series of preferred stock that have greater voting power than our common stock or that are convertible into our common stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders.  Unless the nature of a particular transaction and applicable statute require such approval, the Board of Directors has the authority to issue these shares without stockholder approval subject to approval of the holders of our preferred stock.  The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without any further action by the stockholders.

Delaware Anti-Takeover Law.


We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law concerning corporate takeovers. This section prevents many Delaware corporations from engaging in a business combination with any interested stockholder, under specified circumstances. For these purposes, a business combination includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of our assets, and an interested stockholder includes a stockholder who owns 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock, as well as affiliates and associates of these persons. Under these provisions, this type of business combination is prohibited for three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder unless:


· the transaction in which the stockholder became an interested stockholder is approved by the Board of directors prior to the date the interested stockholder attained that status;

· on consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholders becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction was commenced, excluding those shares owned by persons who are directors and also officers; or

· on or subsequent to that date, the business combination is approved by the Board of Directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.


This statute could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire us.



Limited Liability and Indemnification.


Our certificate of incorporation eliminates the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages arising from a breach of their fiduciary duty as directors to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. This limitation does not affect the availability of equitable remedies, such as injunctive relief or rescission. Our certificate of incorporation requires us to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under Delaware law.


Under Delaware law, we may indemnify our directors or officers or other persons who were, are or are threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent in a proceeding because the person is or was our director, officer, employee or agent, if we determine that the person:


· conducted himself or herself in good faith, reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity as our director or officer, that his or her conduct was in our best interests, and, in all other cases, that his or her conduct was at least not opposed to our best interests; and

· in the case of any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.






24






These persons may be indemnified against expenses, including attorney fees, judgments, fines, including excise taxes, and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred, by the person in connection with the proceeding. If the person is found liable to the corporation, no indemnification will be made unless the court in which the action was brought determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity in an amount that the court will establish. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us under the above provisions, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.


SHOULD ONE OR MORE OF THE FOREGOING RISKS OR UNCERTAINTIES MATERIALIZE, OR SHOULD THE UNDERLYING ASSUMPTIONS PROVE INCORRECT, ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED, BELIEVED, ESTIMATED, EXPECTED, INTENDED OR PLANNED.

General

 

The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 26, 2007. Until January 1, 2010, the Company’s sole sources of revenues were from its coal-mining and timber harvesting operations on approximately 12,000 contiguous acres in Tennessee. It also held the mineral rights for oil and gas on those properties. The Company discontinued its coal mining and timber harvesting operations on January 1, 2010 via a spin off while maintaining its oil and gas assets in the Company (“Legacy Properties”). On April 1, 2010, the Company executed an acquisition of producing oil and gas properties in Kentucky and Tennessee. The Company’s current operations consist primarily of the maintenance and production of those oil and gas mineral reserves. It has not begun exploration or production of its oil and gas rights on its Legacy Properties


Plan of Operations


Hydrocarbons Holdings


On February 21, 2013, the Company entered into a Bill of Sale and Assignment, Release and Assumption Agreement with Hydrocarbons Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“HH”), whereby substantially all of the Company’s oil and gas assets and liabilities were transferred to HH effective February 28, 2013.

 

On April 1, 2010, the Company entered into 12 substantially identical asset purchase agreements with various unrelated partnerships, which were held by a total of 657 individual sellers and it completed the purchase of interests in oil and gas wells located in Kentucky and Tennessee. The Company acquired interests in 39 oil wells and 19 gas wells, a total of 58 wells, and the related support equipment, located on approximately 1,500 leased acres in Kentucky and Tennessee. Under the agreements, the Company acquired all rights, titles and interests to the sellers’ oil and gas wells and support equipment free and clear of all liabilities, liens and encumbrances. The effective date of the purchase and sale was April 1, 2010. As part of the acquisition, 657 sellers received in aggregate 5,696,718 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

Mongolia Equipment Rental Corporation

 

On March 21, 2013, Consolidation Services, Inc. (the “Company”) through its wholly owned subsidiary, Mongolia Equipment Rental Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Franchisee”) entered into an International Franchise Agreement (the “Franchise Agreement”) with Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation and Hertz Equipment Rental System (collectively “Franchisor”).

 

Under the Franchise Agreement the Franchisee will operate a business of renting,  selling and maintaining equipment primarily for use in construction, materials handling and commercial and industrial activities (“Equipment Rental Business”) under the unique plan or system of the Franchisor (the “Hertz System”) in the country of Mongolia.

 

The license granted to Franchisee under the Franchise Agreement shall commence on July 1, 2013 and continue for a period of ten (10) years, unless renewed or sooner terminated.  The Franchisee shall have the option to renew the license for two (2) successive five (5) year terms, subject to the terms of the then current Hertz Equipment Rental System International Franchise Agreement, and provided such terms shall preserve Franchisee’s right to renew for an additional two successive five year periods and will not require the payment of an initial fee by Franchisee and the Franchisee is not in default of the Franchise Agreement.



29





The Franchise Agreement provides that so long as the Franchise Agreement remains in place and for one-year after the expiration or termination of the Franchise Agreement: (i) Franchisor will not establish or license another to establish an Equipment Rental Business in the country of Mongolia; and (ii) Franchisor will not establish or license another to establish a truck rental business under the System (“Truck Rental Business”) in the country of Mongolia without first having afforded Franchisee a non-transferrable right of first refusal to establish a Truck Rental Business in the country of Mongolia. Franchisee shall have a right of first opportunity (prior to Franchisor entering into any substantive discussions or negotiations with any other party) to acquire the franchise for any Equipment Rental Business in the country of Burma (a/k/a Myanmar).

In consideration for the license provided under the Franchise Agreement, Franchisee will pay Franchisor: (i) an initial fee of $45,000; (ii) a continuing monthly license fee equal to 6% of Franchisee’s gross revenue, but not less than $135,000 per annum; and (iii) an amount equal to 1% of all sums received by Franchisee related to (a) the sale, trade-in or other disposal of used equipment, and (b) the sale of any new equipment or product lines that have been previously approved by Franchisor.

Results of Operations

 

We use the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas operations.  Presently we are producing oil from our Kentucky properties.  


Our revenues for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $124,509 and $149,994, respectively.  Our revenues are from the sale of our oil and gas production.  During the year ended December 31, 2013, we produced approximately 1,254 barrels and received an average price per barrel of $99.28. During the year ended December 31, 2012 we produced 1,640 barrels and received an average price per barrel of $91.47.




30





Our operating expenses for production activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 were $141,262 (comprised of $131,349 of lease operating expenses and $9,913 of depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion) as compared to $186,159 (comprised of $165,827 of lease operating expenses and $20,332 of depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion) for the year ended December 31, 2012.  Our sole operation is the drilling and production of our oil and gas properties. The wells in Kentucky are shallow wells (approximately 1,300 feet) and require minimal maintenance. During the years ended December 31 2013 and 2012, the Company impaired its oil and gas properties and support equipment by $0 and $1,373,595, respectively. The impairment recorded during 2012 was due to reductions in the future estimated recoverable reserves as a result of sporadic production.   


We sold equipment with $0 basis for $15,000 during the year ended December 31, 2013 and had no sales of equipment during the year ended December 31, 2012.


Our general and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $1,048,775 and $690,392, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to higher stock compensation. We have paid our employees and consultants in common shares to preserve our limited available cash.

 

We incurred net losses of $1,091,086 and $2,117,966 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, due to the factors discussed above.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


Our cash used in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $265,598 and $328,769, respectively.  The decrease in cash used in operating activities in 2013 was due to the Company incurring less operating costs.


Our cash used in investing activities for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $45,000 and $0, respectively.  The increase in investing activities was due to the purchase of the Hertz licensing agreement during 2013.


Our cash provided by financing activities for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $418,000 and $340,698, respectively.  During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company entered into notes payable with a stockholder in exchange for cash proceeds of $268,000 and $340,698, respectively.   During 2013, the Company also entered into convertible debt agreements with third parties for proceeds of $150,000 which included 300,000 warrants with a relative fair value of $49,917, which was treated as a debt discount.


The Company’s plan of operations is uncertain and is dependent on its ability to identify additional acquisition candidates and to effectively maintain, explore and drill oil and gas wells on existing properties. These activities would require the Company to raise sufficient capital, if available. There’s no assurance of the ability of the Company to access investment capital, secure additional acquisitions or drill economically producing wells. The process/practice of drilling oil and gas wells is cost intensive. It is critical for the Company to source sufficient capital to implement the Company’s business plan.  







31





The Company will rely on public and private equity and debt financings to fund its liquidity requirements over the next twelve months. The Company may be unable to obtain any additional financings on favorable terms, or obtain additional funding at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, and if cash and cash equivalents together with any income generated from operations fall short of the Company’s liquidity requirements, the Company may be unable to sustain operations. Continued negative cash flows could create substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to fully implement its business plan and could render the Company unable to expand operations, respond to competitive pressures, or take advantage of acquisition opportunities, any of which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. If the Company raises additional funds through the issuance of equity securities, stockholders may experience dilution of their ownership interest in the Company, and the newly issued securities may have rights superior to those of existing common stock of the Company. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing debt, the Company may be subject to limitations on operations, including limitations on the payments of dividends.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. As discussed in the notes to the accompanying audited consolidated financial statements, the Company sustained losses from operations.  The Company incurred net losses of $1,091,086 and $2,117,966 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and an accumulated deficit of $11,492,445 at December 31, 2013.  Further, the Company has inadequate working capital to maintain or develop its assets, and is dependent upon funds from lenders, investors and the support of certain stockholders.  


These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements herein do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.  In this regard, Company management is pursuing necessary additional funds through loans and additional sales of its common stock.


The Company's ability to meet its obligations and continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing, achievement of profitable operations and/or the discovery, exploration, development and sale of oil and gas reserves. Although the Company is pursuing additional financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure financing when needed or to obtain such financing on terms satisfactory to the Company, if at all.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

 

Critical Accounting Policies


The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Significant accounting policies are as follows.  





32





Use of Estimates and Assumptions


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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’s consolidated financial statements are based on a number of significant estimates including the selection of the useful lives for property and equipment and the oil and gas reserve quantities which are the basis for the calculations of depreciation, depletion, and impairment of property and equipment. The Company’s reserve quantities are determined by an independent petroleum engineering firm. However, management emphasizes that estimated reserve quantities are inherently imprecise and that estimates of more recent discoveries are more imprecise than those for properties with long production histories. Accordingly, the Company’s estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.


Oil and Gas Properties


The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas operations.  Under this method of accounting, costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas properties, to drill and equip development wells, and to drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves are capitalized. Depletion of capitalized costs for producing oil and gas properties is calculated using the unit-of-production method based on estimates of proved oil and gas reserves on a field-by-field basis.  


The costs of unproved leaseholds and mineral interests are capitalized pending the results of exploration efforts.  In addition, unproved leasehold costs are assessed periodically, on a property-by-property basis, and a loss is recognized to the extent, if any, the property has been impaired.  This impairment will generally be based on geophysical or geologic data.  Due to the perpetual nature of the Company’s ownership of the mineral interests, the drilling of a well, whether successful or unsuccessful, may not represent a complete test of all depths of interest.  Therefore, at the time that a well is drilled, only a portion of the costs allocated to the acreage drilled may be expensed.  As unproved leaseholds are determined to be productive, the related costs are transferred to proved leaseholds.  The costs associated with unproved leaseholds and mineral interests that have been allowed to expire are charged to exploration expense.


Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  When it is determined that an asset’s estimated future net cash flows will not be sufficient to recover its carrying amount, an impairment charge must be recorded to reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value.  Fair value is determined by reference to the present value of estimated future cash flows of such properties.  During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 the Company recorded an impairment of long-lived assets in the amount of $0 and $1,373,595, respectively.  


Exploration costs, including exploratory dry holes, annual delay rental and geological and geophysical costs are charged to expense when incurred.






33





Revenue Recognition


Oil and Gas


The Company has royalty and working interests in various oil and gas properties which constitute its sole source of revenue.  The Company recognizes oil and gas revenue from its interest in producing wells as oil and gas is sold from those wells.  


The Company follows the “sales method” of accounting for oil and natural gas revenue, so it recognizes revenue on all natural gas or crude oil sold to purchasers, regardless of whether the sales are proportionate to its ownership in the property.  A receivable or liability is recognized only to the extent that the Company has an imbalance on a specific property greater than its share of the expected remaining proved reserves.  


Equipment Rental


The Company will recognize revenue from its equipment rental business when all of the following have occurred: persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.


Asset Retirement Obligations


The Company recognizes liabilities for statutory, contractual or legal obligations, including those associated with the reclamation of mineral and mining properties and any plant and equipment, when those obligations result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal operation of the assets. Initially, a liability for an asset retirement obligation is recognized at its fair value in the period in which it is incurred. Upon initial recognition of the liability, the corresponding asset retirement cost is added to the carrying amount of the related asset and the cost is amortized as an expense over the economic life of the asset using either the unit-of-production method or the straight-line method, as appropriate. Following the initial recognition of the asset retirement obligation, the carrying amount of the liability is increased for the passage of time and adjusted for changes to the amount or timing of the underlying cash flows needed to settle the obligation.


Share-Based Compensation


For share-based compensation, the measurement of the cost of services received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument is based on the grant-date fair value of the award.  Compensation cost is recognized when the event occurs.  The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of options granted.

(the “Company”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, audits of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Consolidation Services, Inc. as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company sustained recurring losses from operations, has inadequate working capital to maintain or develop its operations, and is dependent upon funds from lenders, investors and the support of certain stockholders. Those conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to those matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

CONSOLIDATION SERVICES, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


Consolidation Services, Inc. (the “Company” or “CNSV”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 26, 2007. The Company is engaged in the exploration and development of oil and gas reserves in Kentucky and Tennessee.

 

Principles of Consolidation


The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Consolidation Services, Inc. and its subsidiaries, Hydrocarbons Holdings, Inc., Vector Energy Services, Inc. (not an operating company in 2012 or 2013), CSI Energy, Inc. (not an operating company in 2012 or 2013), CSI Resource, Inc. (not an operating company in 2012 or 2013) and Mongolia Equipment Rental Corporation.  


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Use of Estimates and Assumptions


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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’s consolidated financial statements are based on a number of significant estimates including the oil and gas reserve quantities which are the basis for the calculation of depreciation, depletion, and impairment. The Company’s reserve quantities are determined by an independent petroleum engineering firm. However, management emphasizes that estimated reserve quantities are inherently imprecise and that estimates of more recent discoveries are more imprecise than those for properties with long production histories.  Accordingly, the Company’s estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.


Cash and Cash Equivalents

  

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in depository institutions/commercial banks.  


Accounts Receivable


The Company’s accounts receivable consists of accrued revenues from oil and gas production from third party companies in the oil and gas industry.  This concentration of customers may be a consideration of the Companies’ overall credit risk, either positively or negatively, in that these entities may be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions affecting the oil and gas industry.  In determining whether or not to require collateral from a purchaser or joint interest owner, the Company may analyze the entity’s net worth, cash flows, earnings and credit ratings.  Historical credit losses incurred by the Company on receivables have not been significant.




F-6






Oil and Gas Properties


The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas operations.  Under this method of accounting, costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and gas properties, to drill and equip development wells, and to drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves are capitalized.  Depletion of capitalized costs for producing oil and gas properties is calculated using the unit-of-production method based on estimates of proved oil and gas reserves on a field-by-field basis.  


The costs of unproved leaseholds and mineral interests are capitalized pending the results of exploration efforts. In addition, unproved leasehold costs are assessed periodically, on a property-by-property basis, and a loss is recognized to the extent, if any, the property has been impaired.  This impairment will generally be based on geophysical or geologic data.  Due to the perpetual nature of the Company’s ownership of the mineral interests, the drilling of a well, whether successful or unsuccessful, may not represent a complete test of all depths of interest.  Therefore, at the time that a well is drilled, only a portion of the costs allocated to the acreage drilled may be expensed. As unproved leaseholds are determined to be productive, the related costs are transferred to proved leaseholds. The costs associated with unproved leaseholds and mineral interests that have been allowed to expire are charged to exploration expense.


Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  When it is determined that an asset’s estimated future net cash flows will not be sufficient to recover its carrying amount, an impairment charge must be recorded to reduce the carrying amount of the asset to its estimated fair value.  Fair value is determined by reference to the present value of estimated future cash flows of such properties.  


Exploration costs, including exploratory dry holes, annual delay rental and geological and geophysical costs are charged to expense when incurred.


Revenue Recognition


Oil and Gas Revenue


The Company has royalty and working interests in various oil and gas properties which constitute its sole source of revenue.  The Company recognizes oil and gas revenue from its interest in producing wells as oil and gas is sold from those wells.   

 

The Company follows the “sales method” of accounting for oil and natural gas revenue, so it recognizes revenue on all natural gas or crude oil sold to purchasers, regardless of whether the sales are proportionate to its ownership in the property.  A receivable or liability is recognized only to the extent that the Company has an imbalance on a specific property greater than its share of the expected remaining proved reserves.


Equipment Rental Revenue


The Company will recognize revenue from its equipment rental business when all of the following have occurred: persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists; delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and collectability is reasonably assured.




F-7





Loss Per Common Share


Basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period.  Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, warrants, and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company.  Diluted loss per common share is the same as basic loss per share due to the net loss incurred by the Company (attributable to its common shareholders).


For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the following stock options, warrants and convertible debt to purchase shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as the inclusion of such shares would be anti-dilutive:

147,676

-

Stock warrants

300,000

-

Convertible debt

150,000

-

Total

597,676

-


Stock-Based Compensation


The Company measures stock-based compensation at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and recognizes it as expense over the vesting or service period, as applicable, of the stock award using the straight-line method.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties other than in a forced sale or liquidation.


The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, advances from related party and convertible debt approximates fair value due to their short-term nature.


Concentrations of Credit Risk


Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash. Interest-bearing accounts are insured up to $250,000. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no cash in accounts over $250,000.


The Company has two customers that purchase and distribute substantially all of its oil and gas production.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements  

 

No other accounting standards or interpretations issued recently are expected to a have a material consequence on the Company’s consolidated financial position, operations or cash flows.


Subsequent Events


The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were available to be issued.



F-8






NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has sustained recurring losses from operations including an accumulated deficit of $11,492,445 and a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2013 of $1,091,086.  Further, the Company has inadequate working capital to maintain or develop its operations, and is dependent upon funds from lenders, investors and the support of certain stockholders.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.  

 

In this regard, the Company is planning to raise additional funds through loans and additional sales of its common stock. The Company's ability to meet its obligations and continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing, achievement of profitable operations and/or the discovery, exploration, development and sale of oil and gas reserves. Although the Company is pursuing additional financing, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to secure financing when needed or to obtain such financing on terms satisfactory to the Company, if at all.


The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plan described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.


NOTE 4 - OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES


During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not purchase or dispose of any oil and gas properties.

Impairment of oil and gas properties


During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company impaired $0 and $416,529, respectively, of its proved oil and gas properties.  The impairment was due to reductions in the future estimated recoverable reserves as a result of sporadic production during 2012.  


For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded an impairment of unproved leaseholds of $0 and $868,828, respectively.


Support facilities and equipment


The Company owns support facilities and equipment which serve its oil and gas production activities.  The equipment is depreciated over the useful life of the underlying oil and gas property.  The following table details the change in supporting facilities and equipment for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012:

NOTE 8 - ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS


The Company records the fair value of a liability for asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) in the period in which it is incurred and a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. The present value of the estimated asset retirement cost is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset and is depreciated over the useful life of the asset. The Company accrues an abandonment liability associated with its oil and gas wells when those assets are placed in service. The ARO is recorded at its estimated fair value and accretion is recognized over time as the discounted liability is accreted to its expected settlement value. Fair value is determined by using the expected future cash outflows discounted at the Company’s credit-adjusted risk-free rate. No market risk premium has been included in the Company’s calculation of the ARO balance.

The Company has a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $6,489,846 available to offset future taxable income through 2030, subject to limitations of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit, because in the opinion of management based upon the earning history of the Company, it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized. The Company anticipates it will continue to record a valuation allowance against the losses of certain jurisdictions, primarily federal and state, until such time as we are able to determine it is “more-likely-than-not” the deferred tax asset will be realized. Such position is dependent on whether there will be sufficient future taxable income to realize such deferred tax assets.  The Company’s effective tax rate may vary from period to period based on changes in estimated taxable income or loss by jurisdiction, changes to the valuation allowance, changes to federal, state or foreign tax laws, future expansion into areas with varying country, state, and local income tax rates, deductibility of certain costs and expenses by jurisdiction.

 

Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the benefits from net operating losses carried forward may be impaired or limited in certain circumstances. Events which may cause limitations in the amount of net operating losses that the Company may utilize in any one year include, but are not limited to, a cumulative ownership change of more than 50% over a three-year period. The effect of any limitations that may be imposed for future issuances of equity securities, including issuances with respect to acquisitions have not been determined.

NOTE 14 - SUPPLEMENTAL OIL AND GAS INFORMATION (Unaudited)


The estimates of proved oil and gas reserves utilized in the preparation of these statements were prepared by American Energy Advisors, Inc. (“American”), independent petroleum engineers using reserve definitions and pricing requirements prescribed by the SEC.  American used a combination of production performance and offset analogies, along with estimated future operating and development costs as provided by the Company and based upon historical costs adjusted for known future changes in operations or developmental plans, to estimate our reserves.

 

There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of proved reserves, projecting future rates of production and projecting the timing of development expenditures, including many factors beyond our control.  The reserve data represents only estimates.  Reservoir engineering is a subjective process of estimating underground accumulations of natural gas and oil that cannot be measured in an exact manner.  The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretations and judgment.  All estimates of proved reserves are determined according to the rules prescribed by the SEC.  These rules indicate that the standard of “reasonable certainty” be applied to the proved reserve estimates.  This concept of reasonable certainty implies that as more technical data becomes available, a positive, or upward, revision is more likely than a negative, or downward, revision.  Estimates are subject to revision based upon a number of factors, including reservoir performance, prices, economic conditions and government restrictions.  In addition, results of drilling, testing and production subsequent to the date of an estimate may justify revision of that estimate.  Reserve estimates are often different from the quantities of natural gas and oil that are ultimately recovered.  The meaningfulness of reserve estimates is highly dependent on the accuracy of the assumptions on which they were based.  In general, the volume of production from natural gas and oil properties we own declines as reserves are depleted. Except to the extent we conduct successful development activities or acquire additional properties containing proved reserves, or both, our proved reserves will decline as reserves are produced.    There have been no major discoveries or other events, favorable or adverse, that may be considered to have caused a significant change in the estimated proved reserves since December 31, 2013.  The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise. Accordingly, the estimates are expected to change as more current information becomes available. In addition, a portion of the Company’s proved reserves are proved developed non-producing and proved undeveloped, which increases the imprecision inherent in estimating reserves which may ultimately be produced.


All of the Company’s reserves are located in the United States.

Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows


The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, in management’s opinion, should be examined with caution. The basis for this table is the reserve studies prepared by the Company’s independent petroleum engineering consultants, which contain imprecise estimates of quantities and rates of future production of reserves. Revisions of previous year estimates can have a significant impact on these results. Also, exploration costs in one year may lead to significant discoveries in later years and may significantly change previous estimates of proved reserves and their valuation. Therefore, the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flow is not necessarily indicative of the fair value of the Company’s proved oil and natural gas properties.


Future cash inflows for 2013 were computed by applying the average price for the year to the year-end quantities of proved reserves. The 2013 average price for the year was calculated using the 12-month period prior to the ending date of the period covered by the report, determined as an un-weighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within such period.  Adjustment in this calculation for future price changes is limited to those required by contractual arrangements in existence at the end of each reporting year. Future development, abandonment and production costs were computed by estimating the expenditures to be incurred in developing and producing proved oil and natural gas reserves at the end of the year, based on year-end costs, assuming continuation of year-end economic conditions. Future income tax expense was computed by applying statutory rates, less the effects of tax credits for each period presented, to the difference between pre-tax net cash flows relating to the Company’s proved reserves and the tax basis of proved properties, after consideration of available net operating loss and percentage depletion carryovers. Discounted future net cash flows have been calculated using a ten percent discount factor. Discounting requires a year-by-year estimate of when future expenditures will be incurred and when reserves will be produced.



F-20





The estimated present value of future cash flows relating to proved reserves is extremely sensitive to prices used at any measurement period. The prices used for each commodity for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, as adjusted, were as follows:


As of December 31,

The information provided in the tables set out below does not represent management’s estimate of the Company’s expected future cash flows or of the value of the Company’s proved oil and gas reserves. Estimates of proved reserve quantities are imprecise and change over time as new information becomes available. Moreover, probable and possible reserves, which may become proved in the future, are excluded from the calculations. The arbitrary valuation prescribed under ASC No. 932 requires assumptions as to the timing and amount of future development and production costs. The calculations should not be relied upon as an indication of the Company’s future cash flows or of the value of its oil and gas reserves.

ITEM 9 - CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE  


None


ITEM 9A - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Our management team, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of the last day of the fiscal period covered by this report, December 31, 2013. The  term disclosure controls and procedures means our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of December 31, 2013.  


Our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). Management is required to base its assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting on a suitable, recognized control framework, such as the framework developed by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO). The COSO framework, published in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, is known as the COSO Report. Our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer have chosen the COSO framework on which to base its assessment. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2013 : (1) the Company lacks a functioning audit committee and resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) the Company has inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and (3) the Company has ineffective controls over its period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive Officer in connection with the review of our financial statements as of December 31, 2013.


There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last quarter of 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Our report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.







36





It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
