Rangeford Resources, Inc.

(A Development Stage Enterprise)

Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 and the

Period of December 4, 2007 (Inception) to June 30, 2013


NOTE 1 – CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the US (US GAAP) for interim financial information, with the instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements.  The accompanying financial statements at June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013 and for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 contain all normally recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, cash flows and shareholders’ equity for such periods.  Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2014.


NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN


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


In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.


The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and 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.


NOTE 3 – AGREEMENTS TO PURCHASE OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES


Great Northern Energy, Inc.


On November 15, 2012, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Great Northern Energy, Inc. (“GNE”), which was later modified through an addendum dated January 25, 2013,  to acquire a substantial non-operating working interest in oil assets in East Texas in consideration for a purchase price that includes (a) a cash payment of $3,900,000 in the form of (i) a deposit of $100,000; (ii) a promissory note in the amount of $1,100,000; and (iii) a promissory note in the amount of $2,700,000 and (b) 7,400,000 shares of its restricted common stock.



8



As of June 30, 2013, the Company had transferred a total of $700,000 and issued 7,400,000 shares of common stock to GNE towards the purchase of the oil and gas properties, but the agreement has not been consummated. The $700,000 payment was initially recorded as a long-term deposit on the balance sheet and, subsequently, has been charged to impairment of deposit on the income statement for the year ended March 31, 2013.


GNE has returned the stock certificate for 7,400,000 shares, however, GNE did not submit an executed stock power which is required to cancel the GNE shares.  The 7,400,000 shares are considered issued and outstanding at June 30, 2013.  The deposit of $36,557 recorded on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2013, which is related to the issuance of the 7,400,000 shares of common stock, will be reversed in the period the shares are properly cancelled.


On May 20, 2014, we sent a letter to GNE informing them of this determination and seeking to mutually terminate the Agreement.  Given the amount of time that has passed since we first entered into negotiations with GNE and the lack of any tangible results as contemplated in the Agreement, in addition to GNE'S failure to uphold certain of its obligations under the Agreement, we determined it would be in our best interest to terminate the Agreement  In that letter, we requested that GNE comply with the termination provisions of the Agreement and provide the stock power necessary to cancel the shares and return the $700,000 advanced to them under the terms of the Agreement.  Accordingly, once GNE returns the $700,000 and submits the outstanding stock power, we shall immediately consent to and permit the mutual termination of the Agreement.


NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS


Harry McMillan is trustee of the C.E. McMillan Family Trust, which Trust serves as the managing member of Fidare Consulting Group, LLC (“Fidare”) and Cicerone Corporate Development, LLC (“Cicerone”). Mr. McMillan is the Trustee for the benefit of his wife, Christy McMillan and their children, and is also a member of each of Fidare and Cicerone.  Each of these entities, as well as certain beneficiaries of the Trust, own shares of our common stock and therefore, Mr. McMillan and the Trust may be deemed to beneficially own such shares. Each disclaims beneficial ownership of such shares.

In September 2012, the Company entered into a professional services contract with Fidare to provide consulting services relating to corporate governance, accounting procedures and controls and strategic planning.  In accordance with the terms of the original contract, Fidare received monthly compensation of 20,000 common shares per month and warrants to purchase 20,000 common shares with an exercise price equal to the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance, plus reasonable and necessary expenses.  The warrants are exercisable at any time for two years from the date of issuance and may be settled on a net basis.  In December 2012, the contract was amended to provide for monthly compensation of $20,000 per month plus warrants to purchase 20,000 common shares on the same terms described above.


The Consulting Agreement with Fidare was terminated on February 28, 2013 with an effective date of April 4, 2013.


On June 26, 2013, the Company entered into a new Consulting Agreement with Fidare to provide consulting services relating to corporate governance, accounting procedures and control and strategic planning  In accordance with the terms of the Consulting Agreement, Fidare receives monthly compensation of shares of common stock valued at $20,000 based on the price at the close on the last trading day of each month and 20,000 warrants to purchase common stock, with each warrant having an exercise price equal to the closing sale price of the Common Stock on the date of issue and providing for a cashless or net issue exercise.  No shares or warrants were issued to Fidare during the quarter ended June 30, 3013 as a result of the termination which was effective April 4, 2013.  As of June 30, 2013, 100,000 shares of common stock and 140,000 warrants had been issued to Fidare. As of May 27, 2014, 148,959 shares of common stock and 340,000 warrants have been issued to Fidare, pursuant to the terms of the contract.  The managing member of Fidare is the C.E. McMillan Family Trust.  Harry McMillan is trustee of the C.E. McMillan Family Trust.


The fair value of each warrant granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation.  Expected volatilities are based on volatilities from the historical trading ranges of the Company’s stock.  The expected term of options granted is estimated at the contractual term as noted in the individual option agreements and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for the periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury bill rate in effect at the time of grant for bonds with maturity dates at the estimated term of the options.  The key assumptions used in evaluating the warrants and the estimated fair value are as follows:

(“IntreOrg”) to provide third party data aggregation and surveillance of share ownership, purchases, sales and custody by individuals, institutions, broker-dealers, clearing agents, and custodians for a period of one year commencing on December 31, 2012.  The annual subscription service is $30,000 plus a one-time set-up fee of $2,500.  The agreement renews automatically and remains “evergreen” for succeeding one year terms, unless terminated according to the termination provisions contained in the agreement. The former principle owner and CEO/President/Director of IntreOrg was the President and a major stockholder of the Company as of June 30, 2013.


NOTE 5 – RELATED PARTY NOTES PAYABLE AND ADVANCES


On November 1, 2012, the Company entered into a note agreement with a shareholder/director of the Company, pursuant to which the Company borrowed $100,000 from the shareholder which was payable in 60 days with interest at 6% per annum (the “Hadley Note”).  Proceeds from the Hadley Note were paid directly to GNE as a deposit to purchase certain oil and gas assets (see Note 3).  The Hadley Note was payable in 60 days with interest at 6% per annum.  In accordance with the terms of the note, the Company agreed to issue 250,000 shares of unregistered common stock to the shareholder.  The shares of unregistered common stock had a relative fair value of approximately $71,631 as of November 1, 2012, which was recorded as additional interest expense over the 60 day term of the note. As of June 30, 2013, all 250,000 shares were issued to Hadley. The note had not been repaid as of June 30, 2013. The accrued interest due on the note as of June 30, 2013 was $2,493. (See Note 7 – Subsequent Events)


On November 28, 2012, the C. E. McMillan Family Trust advanced the Company $100 to facilitate the opening of a new bank account.  The trustee of the C.E. McMillan Family Trust is also the managing member of Fidare Consulting Group, LLC ("Fidare") and Cicerone Corporate Development, LLC ("Cicerone").  The advance had not been repaid as of June 30, 2013.


At various times, Cicerone has advanced funds to the Company for operating expenses.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, Cicerone advanced a total of $85,118.  The principal balance owed to Cicerone was $122,033 with accrued interest of $682 as of June 30, 2013. The managing member of Cicerone is the C. E. McMillan Family Trust.  Harry McMillan is trustee of the C.E. McMillan Family Trust.


We received loans from two of our shareholders totaling $21,055 from inception to June 30, 2012 for the purposes of funding startup operations.  These loans were non-interest bearing and due on demand. On June 30, 2012 these loans totaling $21,055 were forgiven by the shareholders and credited to our additional paid in capital account.

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES


On June 7, 2012, several former shareholders (including the Company’s CEO, Dr. Steven Henson, although not in such capacity) of Sun River Energy, Inc. (“Sun River”) filed a derivative action against Sun River and its management in a case now styled Colin Richardson, et al., derivatively on behalf of Sun River Energy, Inc. v. Sun River Energy, Inc. v. Donald R. Schmidt, Jr., et al., Cause No. DC-12-06318, in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas (the “Derivative Suit”).  On January 24, 2013, the Court found the Plaintiffs in the case had shown a probable right to the relief sought at an evidentiary hearing and a likelihood of success on the claims of breach of fiduciary duty, fraudulent transfer and certain defamation claims, and entered a temporary injunction against Sun River and its management (the “Temporary Injunction”).  The terms of the Temporary Injunction prevent Sun River, and all officers, directors, agents, servants, attorneys, employees, and all those in active concert or participation, from any performance, claims of default, payments, transfer or other actions with respect to certain notes and mortgages; any payments on those notes based on alleged past due compensation without Board Approval and without providing notice to the parties; entry into contracts by Donal R. Schmidt, Jr. to lease, purchase, or sell Sun River’s interest in its hard rock minerals, coal, oil, timber, gas and or other minerals in Colfax County, New Mexico, without Board Approval and without providing notice to the parties, and any and all issuances of stock or any other compensation, payments, bonuses, gifts or other transfers  by Sun River to the Defendants without Board Approval and without providing notice to the parties outside of normal payroll payment activity.  On February 7, 2013, Defendants Schmidt et al. filed an Amended Answer, Special Exception, Counterclaim and Original Third Party Petition asserting claims against certain third parties for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, misappropriation of confidential information, and against the Company (as well as others) for conversion, constructive trust and conspiracy and places some of the blame for these alleged actions on Dr. Steven Henson.  On January 27, 2014, upon motion made by the Company and other third party defendants in their joint motions for severance of third party claims relief was granted by the district court of Dallas County, Texas and a new suit, styled Sun River, et al. v. the Company, et al. (including the other initial third party defendants) was created (the “Third Party Suit”); however, as of March 31, 2014, Sun River has yet to pay the requisite filing fees and the case has yet to be assigned a cause number.  As a result of such severance, the Company is no longer a party to the Derivative Suit.  The Derivative Suit case is set for trial on June 9, 2014.  Subject, it is understood to a Motion for Continuance. There is no current trial set in the Third Party Suit although the parties to the Third Party Suit have circulated an agreed Scheduling Order setting the Third Party Suit for trial in January 2015; no order setting such trial date has been submitted for the Court’s signature as of this date.  In addition, Sun River appealed the decision of temporary injunction in the Derivative Suit and on January 13, 2014, the Appeals Court reversed the temporary injunction in the Derivative Suit on the grounds that the Plaintiffs did not show imminent harm.  Plaintiffs in the Derivative Suit have filed a new request for temporary injunction to the Appeals Court seeking new relief. Dr. Steven Henson believes the claims in the Third Party Suit are completely without merit and the Company will defend their respective positions vigorously.


On January 15, 2013, Gruber Hurst Johansen Hail Shank LLP ("GHJHS") initiated a lawsuit against Steve Henson, M.D., David K. Henson, Colin Richardson, et al, in the 134th District Court of Dallas County, Cause No. DC-13-00553.  GHJHS brought this suit seeking payment for legal representation previously provided to the defendants regarding the Sun River case disclosed above.  This case was later assigned to mediation.

We have recently become aware of a letter dated December 17, 2012 from Dr. Steven Henson to Michael Farmer, who at time was not a director or officer of Rangeford, with regard to our offering of up to $3,000,000 of our preferred stock in connection with our proposed acquisition of certain properties from Great Northern Energy, Inc.  In the letter, Dr. Henson, who at the time was the President and Chairman of the Board of Rangeford, purports to grant a right of rescission to certain investors in the event that we were unable to raise the full amount of funds necessary to acquire the subject properties from Great Northern Energy.  This right of rescission was never approved by our Board of Directors and it is our position that Dr. Henson acted without proper authority in providing the letter to Mr. Farmer, as the representative of certain investors.  At this point no claim has been made by any of the investors, who invested approximately $300,000 in Rangeford and we have no reason to assume that a claim will ultimately be made.


NOTE 7 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS


On July 2, 2013, the Company issued 15,584 shares of common stock to Delaney Equity Group as payment of an outstanding invoice owed to them for fees related to the issuance of the Series A Convertible Preferred stock.


On September 4, 2013, we received a $750,000 Revolving Credit Note (the "Cicerone Revolving Note") from Cicerone Corporate Development, LLC ("Cicerone") (a related party).  The Cicerone Revolving Note matures on February 1, 2015 and bears interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 2.75% per annum, which is payable semi-annually on June 30 and December 31 of each year. We may request advances on the Cicerone Revolving Note in increments of $10,000 at any time prior to the maturity date.  If we do not pay the outstanding amount on the maturity date, then the interest rate shall increase to the lesser of 12% or the maximum rate of interest permitted by law. As an inducement to entering into the Cicerone Revolving Note, we issued Cicerone 1,500,000 shares of our common stock (the "Inducement Shares").  The Cicerone Revolving Note contains standard events of default, including nonpayment of the Note or any other liability exceeding $50,000, as well as a change in control or entry into bankruptcy, upon which Cicerone may enforce its rights under the Revolving Note.  At the time of entering into the Cicerone Revolving Note, Cicerone had already loaned us approximately $65,100, which amount is included as amount advanced under the Cicerone Revolving Note that must be paid back.  As of May 27, 2014, we received a total of approximately $368,114, including the $65,100, in advances under the Cicerone Revolving Note.  The managing member of Cicerone is the C.E. McMillan Family Trust.  Harry McMillan is trustee of the C.E. McMillan Family Trust.


On September 23, 2013 the Company issued 20,000 shares of its Series A convertible preferred stock to settle the past due outstanding promissory note payable to Gregory W. Hadley, dated November 1, 2012, in the amount of $100,000.  No gain or loss will be recognized on settlement of the debt because the fair value of the preferred stock issued is equal to the carrying value of the debt.


On September 24, 2013, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares to Cicerone Corporate Development, LLC related to providing at $750,000 line of credit.


On September 30, 2013, we issued Mr. Kevin Carreno, a former Board Member, 21,364 shares of our common stock as payment of outstanding invoices owed to him for his legal services, which is valued at $79,173.


As of March 31, 2014, we have issued Mr. Richardson 26,313 shares of common stock and 120,000 warrants, valued at $120,000, pursuant to his Officer Agreement.

On May 20, 2014, we sent a letter to GNE informing them of this determination and seeking to mutually terminate the Agreement.  Given the amount of time that has passed since we first entered into negotiations with GNE and the lack of any tangible results as contemplated in the Agreement, in addition to GNE'S failure to uphold certain of its obligations under the Agreement, we determined it would be in our best interest to terminate the Agreement  In that letter, we requested that GNE comply with the termination provisions of the Agreement and provide the stock power necessary to cancel the shares and return the $700,000 advanced to them under the terms of the Agreement.  Accordingly, once GNE returns the $700,000 and submits the outstanding stock power, we shall immediately consent to and permit the mutual termination of the Agreement.


Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and notes thereto included herein.

The independent registered public accounting firm’s report on the Company’s financial statements as of March 31, 2013, and for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, includes a “going concern” explanatory paragraph, that describes substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

PLAN OF OPERATIONS


Overview


Rangeford Resources, Inc. (the “Company”) is a development stage company that was incorporated on December 4, 2007, in the state of Nevada. The Company has never declared bankruptcy, it has never been in receivership. Since becoming incorporated, Rangeford Resources has not made any significant purchase or sale of assets, nor has it been involved in any mergers, acquisitions or consolidations and the Company owns no subsidiaries. The fiscal year end is March 31st. The Company has not had revenues from operations since its inception and/or any interim period in the current fiscal year.


Going Concern


We have incurred net losses of approximately $2,752,622 since inception through June 30, 2013.  The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2013 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern based upon our operating losses and need to raise additional capital.  These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  There are no assurances we will be successful in our efforts to increase our revenues and report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern, in which event investors would lose their entire investment in our company.


Plan of Operation


We have $574,494 in current liabilities as of June 30, 2013.  From the date of inception (December 4, 2007) to June 30, 2013, the Company has recorded a net loss of $2,752,622 of which were expenses relating to the initial development of the Company, filing its Registration Statement on Form S-1, and expenses relating to maintaining Reporting Company status with the SEC.  In order to survive as a going concern over the Company will require additional capital investments or borrowed funds to meet cash flow projections and carry forward our business objectives. There can be no guarantee or assurance that we can raise adequate capital from outside sources to fund the proposed business. Failure to secure additional financing would result in business failure and a complete loss of any investment made into the Company.


Since August 15, 2008, the Company has sold 181,700 shares of common stock to the public with total proceeds raised of $22,713.  These proceeds have been utilized by the Company to fund its initial development including administrative costs associated with maintaining its status as a Reporting Company as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Exchange Act of 1934 as amended. The Company plans to continue to focus efforts on selling their common shares in order to continue to fund its initial development and fund the expenses associated with maintaining a reporting company status.

Great Northern Energy, Inc.


On November 15, 2012, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Great Northern Energy, Inc. (“GNE”) to acquire a substantial non-operating working interest in oil assets in East Texas in consideration for a purchase price that includes (a) a cash payment of $3,900,000 in the form of (i) a deposit of $100,000; (ii) a promissory note in the amount of $1,100,000; and (iii) a promissory note in the amount of $2,700,000 and (b) 7,400,000 shares of its restricted common stock.



17



As of June 30, 2013, the Company had transferred a total of $700,000 and issued 7,400,000 shares of common stock to GNE towards the purchase of the oil and gas properties, but the agreement has not been consummated. The $700,000 payment was initially recorded as a long-term deposit on the balance sheet and, subsequently, has been charged to impairment of deposit on the income statement for the year ended March 31, 2013.


GNE has returned the stock certificate for 7,400,000 shares, however, GNE did not submit an executed stock power which is required to cancel the GNE shares.  The 7,400,000 shares are considered issued and outstanding at June 30, 2013.  The deposit of $36,557 recorded on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2013, which is related to the issuance of the 7,400,000 shares of common stock, will be reversed in the period the shares are properly cancelled.


On May 20, 2014, we sent a letter to GNE informing them of this determination and seeking to mutually terminate the Agreement.  Given the amount of time that has passed since we first entered into negotiations with GNE and the lack of any tangible results as contemplated in the Agreement, in addition to GNE'S failure to uphold certain of its obligations under the Agreement, we determined it would be in our best interest to terminate the Agreement  In that letter, we requested that GNE comply with the termination provisions of the Agreement and provide the stock power necessary to cancel the shares and return the $700,000 advanced to them under the terms of the Agreement.  Accordingly, once GNE returns the $700,000 and submits the outstanding stock power, we shall immediately consent to and permit the mutual termination of the Agreement.


Drilling and Development


The Company does not anticipate any costs or expenses to be incurred for drilling research and development within the next six months.


Results of Operations


For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2012


During the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not recognize any revenues from it operating activities.  


For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recognized a net loss of $271,367 compared to $1,715 for the year ended June 30, 2012. The increase of $269,652 was a result of the Company’s increase in expenses for legal, accounting, and professional consulting services for corporate strategies and interest expense.



18



Liquidity and Capital Resources


At June 30, 2013, the Company had total current assets of $18,405, including cash of $2,155 and $16,250 in prepaid expenses to a related party.  At June 30, 2013, the Company had total current liabilities of $574,494 which includes, $345,683 in accounts payable, $6,679 in accrued interest, and, $222,133 in notes payable.  At June 30, 2013, the Company had a working capital deficit of $556,089.


During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company used cash of $82,962 in our operations compared to $45 during the year ended June 30, 2012.  No cash was provided by or used in investing activities for the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.  During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, the Company received funds of $85,117 from financing activities and no cash from financing activities for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.


Cicerone Corporate Development, LLC (a related party) advanced $85,117 to the Company for operating expenses during the quarter ended June 30, 2013.


We received loans from two of our shareholders totaling $21,055 from inception to June 30, 2012 for the purposes of funding startup operations.  These loans were non-interest bearing and due on demand.  On June 30, 2012 these loans totaling $21,055 were forgiven by the shareholders and credited to our additional paid in capital account.


Short Term


On a short-term basis, the Company has not generated any revenue or revenues sufficient to cover operations.  Based on prior history, the Company will continue to have insufficient revenue to satisfy current and recurring liabilities as the Company continues exploration activities.


Capital Resources


The Company will need to raise an additional $3,213,260 in funding to fully comply with the terms of the revised GNE agreement of which is due and payable immediately.


The Company is making every effort to sell at least a sufficient amount of Preferred Stock to meet the capital requirements of the GNE agreement and for general corporate purposes. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in its attempt to sell the preferred shares.


The Company will need to raise an additional $1,005,159 in funding to complete Phase I of the agreement with BGKP.  Phase II of the agreement with BGKP will require the Company to fund $2,500,000 for the drilling, testing, and completion of 20 wells in Bourbon, or Allen County, Kansas.


The Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures within the next year, however if operations are commenced, substantial capital will be needed to pay for participation, investigation, exploration, acquisition and working capital.



19



Need for Additional Financing


The Company does not have capital sufficient to meet its cash needs.  The Company will have to seek loans or equity placements to cover such cash needs.  Once exploration commences, its needs for additional financing is likely to increase substantially.


No commitments to provide additional funds have been made by the Company’s management or other stockholders.  Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional funds will be available to us to allow us to cover the Company’s expenses as they may be incurred.


The Company will need substantial additional capital to support its proposed future petroleum exploration operations.  The Company has no revenues.  The Company has no committed source for any funds as of the date hereof.  No representation is made that any funds will be available when needed.  In the event funds cannot be raised when needed, the Company may not be able to carry out its business plan, may never achieve sales or royalty income, and could fail in business as a result of these uncertainties.


Decisions regarding future participation in exploration wells or geophysical studies or other activities will be made on a case-by-case basis.  The Company may, in any particular case, decide to participate or decline participation.  If participating, the Company may pay its proportionate share of costs to maintain the Company’s proportionate interest through cash flow or debt or equity financing.  If participation is declined, the Company may elect to farm-out, non-consent, sell or otherwise negotiate a method of cost sharing in order to maintain some continuing interest in the prospect.


Going Concern


We have incurred net losses of approximately $2,752,622 since inception through June 30, 2013.  The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2013 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern based upon our operating losses and need to raise additional capital.  These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  There are no assurances we will be successful in our efforts to increase our revenues and report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern, in which event investors would lose their entire investment in our company.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with the Company is a party, under which the Company has (i) any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest; or (ii) a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.


Not Applicable to smaller reporting companies


Item 4. Controls and Procedures.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


The Company failed to timely file its annual report on Form 10K for the year ended March 31, 2013 and the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for that same fiscal year, which demonstrates that its Disclosure Controls and Procedures have been inadequate.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of our last fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 and the quarter ended June 30, 2013, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon those evaluations, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2013 or June 30, 2013, to cause the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods prescribed by SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Going forward from this filing, the Company intends to re-establish and maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to be effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance of achieving the desired objectives. Also, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. The design of any system of controls is based, in part, upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.



21



Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

During the quarter covered by this Report, there were not any changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation management performed at the end of the quarter ending June 30, 2013 or the end of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting.

 

Other than those disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10K for the year ending March 31, 2013, as amended, there have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation management performed at the end of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1. Legal Proceedings.


On June 7, 2012, several former shareholders (including the Company’s CEO, Dr. Steven Henson, although not in such capacity) of Sun River Energy, Inc. (“Sun River”) filed a derivative action against Sun River and its management in a case now styled Colin Richardson, et al., derivatively on behalf of Sun River Energy, Inc. v. Sun River Energy, Inc. v. Donald R. Schmidt, Jr., et al., Cause No. DC-12-06318, in the District Court of Dallas County, Texas (the “Derivative Suit”).  On January 24, 2013, the Court found the Plaintiffs in the case had shown a probable right to the relief sought at an evidentiary hearing and a likelihood of success on the claims of breach of fiduciary duty, fraudulent transfer and certain defamation claims, and entered a temporary injunction against Sun River and its management (the “Temporary Injunction”).  The terms of the Temporary Injunction prevent Sun River, and all officers, directors, agents, servants, attorneys, employees, and all those in active concert or participation, from any performance, claims of default, payments, transfer or other actions with respect to certain notes and mortgages; any payments on those notes based on alleged past due compensation without Board Approval and without providing notice to the parties; entry into contracts by Donal R. Schmidt, Jr. to lease, purchase, or sell Sun River’s interest in its hard rock minerals, coal, oil, timber, gas and or other minerals in Colfax County, New Mexico, without Board Approval and without providing notice to the parties, and any and all issuances of stock or any other compensation, payments, bonuses, gifts or other transfers  by Sun River to the Defendants without Board Approval and without providing notice to the parties outside of normal payroll payment activity.  On February 7, 2013, Defendants Schmidt et al. filed an Amended Answer, Special Exception, Counterclaim and Original Third Party Petition asserting claims against certain third parties for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, misappropriation of confidential information, and against the Company (as well as others) for conversion, constructive trust and conspiracy and places some of the blame for these alleged actions on Dr. Steven Henson.  On January 27, 2014, upon motion made by the Company and other third party defendants in their joint motions for severance of third party claims relief was granted by the district court of Dallas County, Texas and a new suit, styled Sun River, et al. v. the Company, et al. (including the other initial third party defendants) was created (the “Third Party Suit”); however, as of June 30, 2013, Sun River has yet to pay the requisite filing fees and the case has yet to be assigned a cause number.  As a result of such severance, the Company is no longer a party to the Derivative Suit.  The Derivative Suit case is set for trial on June 9, 2014.  Subject, it is understood to a Motion for Continuance.  There is no current trial set in the Third Party Suit although the parties to the Third Party Suit have circulated an agreed Scheduling Order setting the Third Party Suit for trial in January 2015; no order setting such trial date has been submitted for the Court’s signature as of this date.  In addition, Sun River appealed the decision of temporary injunction in the Derivative Suit and on January 13, 2014, the Appeals Court reversed the temporary injunction in the Derivative Suit on the grounds that the Plaintiffs did not show imminent harm.  Plaintiffs in the Derivative Suit have filed a new request for temporary injunction to the Appeals Court seeking new relief. Dr. Steven Henson believes the claims in the Third Party Suit are completely without merit and the Company will defend their respective positions vigorously.

On January 15, 2013, Gruber Hurst Johansen Hail Shank LLP ("GHJHS") initiated a lawsuit against Steve Henson, M.D., David K. Henson, Colin Richardson, et al, in the 134th District Court of Dallas County, Cause No. DC-13-00553.  GHJHS brought this suit seeking payment for legal representation previously provided to the defendants regarding the Sun River case disclosed above.  This case was later assigned to mediation.  


We have recently become aware of a letter dated December 17, 2012 from Dr. Steven Henson to Michael Farmer, who at time was not a director or officer of Rangeford, with regard to our offering of up to $3,000,000 of our preferred stock in connection with our proposed acquisition of certain properties from Great Northern Energy, Inc.  In the letter, Dr. Henson, who at the time was the President and Chairman of the Board of Rangeford, purports to grant a right of rescission to certain investors in the event that we were unable to raise the full amount of funds necessary to acquire the subject properties from Great Northern Energy.  This right of rescission was never approved by our Board of Directors and it is our position that Dr. Henson acted without proper authority in providing the letter to Mr. Farmer, as the representative of certain investors.  At this point no claim has been made by any of the investors, who invested approximately $300,000 in Rangeford and we have no reason to assume that a claim will ultimately be made.


Other than the above mentioned litigation matters, neither we nor any of our direct or indirect subsidiaries is a party to, nor is any of our property the subject of, any legal proceedings. There are no proceedings pending in which any of our officers, directors or 5% shareholders are adverse to us or any of our subsidiaries or in which they are taking a position or have a material interest that is adverse to us or any of our subsidiaries.
