PEGASI ENERGY RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2014 AND 2013

1.   NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
Pegasi Energy Resources Corporation (“PERC” or the “Company”) is an independent energy company engaged in the exploration for, and production of, crude oil and natural gas.  The Company’s focus is on the development of a repeatable, low-geological risk, high-potential project in the active East Texas oil and gas region.  The Company’s business strategy in what it has designated the “Cornerstone Project”, is to identify and exploit resources in and adjacent to existing or indicated producing areas within the mature Rodessa field. The Company believes that it is uniquely familiar with the history and geology of the Cornerstone Project area based on its collective experience in the region as well as through its development and ownership of a large proprietary database, which details the drilling history of the Cornerstone Project area since 1980.  In 2012, the Company drilled the Morse #1-H well targeting the Bossier formation and completed it using hydraulic fracture stimulation techniques.  The Morse #1-H is the first such horizontal well completed in the Rodessa field and the Company believes that implementing the latest proven drilling and completion techniques to exploit its geological insight in the Cornerstone Project area will enable it to find significant oil and gas reserves.

PERC conducts its main exploration and production operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Pegasi Operating, Inc. ("POI").  It conducts additional operations through another wholly-owned subsidiary, TR Rodessa, Inc. ("TR Rodessa").  

TR Rodessa owns an 80% undivided interest in and operates a 40-mile natural gas pipeline and gathering system which is currently being used by PERC to transport its hydrocarbons to market.  Excess capacity on this system is used to transport third-party hydrocarbons.  
  
2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)  Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with PERC’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, and notes thereto, which are included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 24, 2014.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein.  The consolidated results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.  The notes to consolidated financial statements, which would substantially duplicate the disclosures required in the Company’s 2013 annual consolidated financial statements, have been omitted.

b)  Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PERC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.  In preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and disclosures.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 c)  Stock-based Compensation

The Company has accounted for stock-based compensation under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation.  The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements for equity-classified employee stock-based compensation awards based on the grant date fair value of the awards.  During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, the Company recognized $131,036 and $131,036, respectively, of stock-based compensation. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, the Company recognized $3,222,307 and $393,108, respectively, of stock-based compensation, which has been recorded as a general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Non-employee share-based awards are accounted for based upon FASB ASC Topic 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees.  
 
 
PEGASI ENERGY RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2014 AND 2013

d)  Net Loss per Common Share

Basic net loss per common share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  The Company uses the treasury stock method of calculating fully diluted per share amounts whereby any proceeds from the exercise of stock options or other dilutive instruments are assumed to be used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. The dilutive effect of convertible securities is reflected in diluted loss per share by application of the if-converted method. Under this method, conversion shall not be assumed for the purposes of computing diluted loss per share if the effect would be anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company had potentially dilutive shares of 50,534,233 and 39,319,541, respectively, that were excluded from the earnings per share calculation because their impact would be anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, as the effect of common stock equivalents is anti-dilutive.

e) Notes Payable, Related Parties

Notes payable, related parties totaling $8,160,646 consisted of the “Teton Renewal Note” in the amount of $6,987,646 dated June 23, 2011, including interest at 8%, with all principal due on the maturity date of June 1, 2015, secured by a stock pledge and security agreement and the “Teton Promissory Note” in the amount of $1,173,000 dated October 14, 2009, including interest of 6.25%, with all interest and principal due on the maturity date of June 1, 2015, unsecured. On June 24, 2014, amendments on both the Teton Renewal Note and the Teton Promissory Note were executed to extend the maturity date of the notes from June 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015, at which time all outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the notes will be due. The event of default section remains the same as in the prior amendments.

f) Certificates of Deposit

Certificates of deposit have been posted as collateral supporting a reclamation bond guaranteeing remediation of our oil and gas properties in Texas.  As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the balance of the certificates of deposit totaled $78,613 and $78,560, respectively.

g) New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing GAAP.

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). Management is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and has not yet determined the method the Company will adopt by which it will implement the standard.

3.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, requires certain disclosures regarding the fair value of financial instruments.  Fair value of financial instruments is made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information about financial markets and specific financial instruments.  As these estimates are subjective in nature, involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect estimated fair values.
 
FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.
 
 
PEGASI ENERGY RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2014 AND 2013
 
FASB ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. FASB ASC Topic 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
 
Level 1 - Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2 - Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
 
Level 3 - Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The following table sets forth our estimate of fair value of our financial instruments that are liabilities as of June 30, 2014:
 
   
Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)

In accordance with the reporting requirements of FASB ASC Topic No. 825, the Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments under this statement and includes this additional information in the notes to consolidated financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of these financial instruments.  The estimated fair values of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.  The carrying value of long-term debt approximates market value due to the use of market interest rates.

Based on the Company's stock price of $0.60 at June 30, 2014, the options outstanding had an intrinsic value of $496,567.  

Total options exercisable at June 30, 2014 amounted to 15,750,000 shares and had a weighted average exercise price of $0.66.  Upon exercise, the Company issues the full amount of shares exercisable per the term of the options from new shares.  The Company has no plans to repurchase those shares in the future.  

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing valuation model, consistent with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 505 and FASB ASC Topic 718.  Key inputs and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options include the grant price of the award, the expected option term, volatility of the Company’s stock, the risk-free rate and the Company’s dividend yield.  Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by grantees, and subsequent events are not indicative of the reasonableness of the original estimates of fair value made by the Company.  The Company uses the simplified method to determine the expected term on options issued.

6.  WARRANTS OUTSTANDING

Warrants Modified

During the first quarter of 2014, the Company offered holders of certain warrants an option to consider modification of the warrants.  The terms of the offer would (1) extend the exercise term of the warrants by three years, and (2) increase the exercise price of the warrants, which would be exercisable on a cash-only basis. The deadline for accepting this offer was March 31, 2014.

Pursuant to the 2014 modification agreement, the Company changed the terms of warrants to purchase an aggregate of 14,880,762 shares to increase their exercise price and to extend the exercise term by three years.  See the table below for a summary of the modifications for the various outstanding warrants.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Contingent Liabilities

In preparing financial statements at any point in time, management is periodically faced with uncertainties, the outcomes of which are not within its control and will not be known for prolonged periods of time. The Company is involved in actions from time to time, which if determined adversely, could have a material negative impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Management, with the assistance of counsel makes estimates, if determinable, of the Company’s probable liabilities and records such amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Such estimates may be the minimum amount of a range of probable loss when no single best estimate is determinable. Disclosure is made, when determinable, of any additional possible amount of loss on these claims, or if such estimate cannot be made, that fact is disclosed.

Along with the Company's counsel, management monitors developments related to legal matters and, when appropriate, makes adjustments to record liabilities to reflect current facts and circumstances.  Management has recorded a liability related to its registration rights agreement with investors that provides for the filing of a registration statement for the registration of the shares issued in the offering in December 2007, as well as the shares issuable upon exercise of related warrants.  The Company failed to meet the deadline for the effectiveness of the registration statement and therefore was required to pay liquidated damages of approximately $100,000 on the first day of effectiveness failure, or July 18, 2008.  An additional $100,000 penalty was required to be paid by the Company every thirty days thereafter, prorated for periods totaling less than thirty days, until the effectiveness failure was cured, up to a maximum of 18% of the aggregate purchase price, or approximately $1,800,000.  The Company’s registration became effective on August 21, 2008. 
 
At June 30, 2014, management reevaluated the status of the registration statement and determined an accrual of $44,675 was sufficient to cover any potential payments for liquidated damages and the related accrued interest.  The damages are reflected as liquidated damages payable of $44,675 and $40,892 in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.   The difference of $3,783 was recorded as expense in the Other Income (Expense) section of the consolidated statements of operations.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On July 25, 2014, the Company issued 7,970 shares of common stock for $4,782 to an investor upon exercise of 7,970 2011 Warrants.

On August 7, 2014, the Company concluded a participation agreement with Pacific World Energy Limited (“PWE”) for the drilling of up to 10 wells on its leased acreage in Marion County, Texas.  Under the terms of the agreement, PWE finances the full cost of drilling and completing each well in return for an initial working interest of 80% in each well, which working interest decreases to 63.3% following PWE’s recovery of 125% of each well’s costs.


ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Forward Looking Statements

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include a number of forward-looking statements that reflect management's current views with respect to future events and financial performance. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate” and “continue,” or similar words.  Those statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of us and the management team as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risk and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements.

Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Important factors currently known to Management could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes in the future operating results over time. We believe that our assumptions are based upon reasonable data derived from and known about our business and operations. No assurances are made that actual results of operations or the results of our future activities will not differ materially from our assumptions. Factors that could cause differences include, but are not limited to, expected market demand for our products, fluctuations in pricing for materials, and competition.

Company Overview

We are an independent energy company engaged in the exploration for, and production of, crude oil and natural gas.  Our focus is on the development of a repeatable, low-geological risk, high-potential project in the active East Texas oil and gas region.  We currently hold interests in properties located in Cass and Marion Counties, Texas, home to the Rodessa oil field.  This field has historically been the domain of small independent operators and is not a legacy field for any major oil company.

Our business strategy in what we have designated the “Cornerstone Project”, is to identify and exploit resources in and adjacent to existing or indicated producing areas within the mature Rodessa field. We believe that we are uniquely familiar with the history and geology of the Cornerstone Project area based on our collective experience in the region as well as through our development and ownership of a large proprietary database which details the drilling history of the Cornerstone Project area since 1980.  We plan to develop and produce reserves at low cost and will take an aggressive approach to exploiting our contiguous acreage position through utilization of the latest “best in class” drilling and completion techniques.  In 2012, we drilled the Morse #1-H well targeting the Bossier formation and completed it using hydraulic fracture stimulation techniques.  The Morse #1-H is the first such horizontal well completed in the Rodessa field and we believe that implementing the latest proven drilling and completion techniques to exploit our geological insight in the Cornerstone Project area will enable us to find significant oil and gas reserves.

Plan of Operations

Our corporate strategy can be thought of in terms of the acquisition of leases and the development of resources on leased acreage.

Acquisition of Leases in the Cornerstone Project area
 
As of July 31, 2014, our leasehold position was approximately 26,752 gross acres and 16,518 net acres, of which our working interest is approximately 10,081 net acres.

·  
Supporting Our Drilling Program.  Our priority is now drilling, and consequently, our leasing program’s primary objective is to support our planned drilling program by securing holdout leases in those units where we plan to drill over the next twelve months and renewing leases that are due to expire in those units where we plan to drill.

·  
Acquiring Additional Drilling Locations.  We have an extensive proprietary database that we use to identify additional drilling locations and target acreage for acquisition in the Cornerstone Project area.  Most properties in the project area are held by smaller independent companies that lack the resources and expertise to develop them fully.  We intend to pursue these opportunities to selectively expand our portfolio of properties.  Acreage additions will complement our existing substantial acreage position in the area and provide us with additional drilling opportunities.
 
 
Development of Resources in the Cornerstone Project area
 
Our acreage is located in a region that has historically proven highly productive. There are multiple target formations available for development on our leased acreage. These include the gas and condensate bearing Travis Peak, the oil and gas bearing upper Cotton Valley sands, the oil bearing Bossier sands and the oil bearing Cotton Valley Limestone. Approximately three quarters of our net leased acreage is currently undeveloped (approximately 7,689 undeveloped net acres of a total of 10,081 net acres as of July 31, 2014). The primary focus of our drilling program is to develop the resources of these undeveloped acres and subsequently hold this acreage with production rather than to develop our existing reserves on developed acreage.
 
·  
Horizontal Wells Targeting the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone.  Our priority is to drill horizontal wells targeting the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone.  The low permeability oil bearing Bossier and Cotton Valley Limestone formations are amenable to development using the latest horizontal drilling and dynamic multi-stage fracking techniques that have proven successful in the Bakken Shale in North Dakota and elsewhere.  Our first horizontal well, the Morse #1-H, was drilled with a 2,000 foot horizontal section. This well was completed with a fivestage frack and recorded an average production rate of 281 Bbl/day of high quality crude oil in its first five days of production. The production rate subsequently declined and we recorded an average production rate of 21 Bbl/day of crude oil in April 2014.  This decline has been irregular and we have observed unexpected surges in production.  During a three day period in November 2013, production surged to a peak of 83 Bbl/day from the previous average of approximately 30 Bbl/day. In early February 2014, production surged to a peak rate of 74 Bbl/day of oil over a three day period and later surged to a peak rate of 72 Bbl/day of oil over an eight day period. Average production in June 2014 amounted to over 28 Bbl/day of oil.  These surges in production lead us to believe that the reservoir is capable of greater production, and that the Morse #1-H well’s production rate has been compromised by the gas lift system and/or by an obstruction in the well bore. We are actively researching an intervention and intend to perform a workover of the well, which may involve the installation of a mechanical pump to replace the gas lift system; however, no date has yet been set for such work.  We expect that it would take approximately 30 days to install such a mechanical pump system. We believe that the successful production of oil from the Morse #1-H supports our development strategy. We have learned much from the drilling, completion and production of the Morse #1-H that will enable us to improve the design and execution of our next planned horizontal well targeting the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone. Having proven our development model, we now plan to drill wells with longer laterals involving 15 frack stages to improve the well economics. We estimate that the drilling and completion costs of such wells will be approximately $7-$9 million. We are not currently capitalized to drill a program of such wells to develop the Bossier/Cotton Valley Limestone and are actively engaged in securing the finance to fund such a drilling program. We have a 56% working interest in the Morse #1-H well.

·  
Vertical Wells. Our secondary priority is to drill vertical wells to offset the Norbord #1 discovery of 2010 in the Travis Peak, such as the Haggard A & B wells, which were completed in 2013 and 2012, respectively, and have proven highly productive of gas and condensate. We recently concluded a participation agreement for the drilling of up to 10 wells on our leased acreage in Marion County. The initial wells in this drilling program will be vertical wells targeting the Travis Peak and upper Cotton Valley Sands and will employ a multi-zone production technique to enhance their profitability. We expect to complete the first well in this program within the next ninety days.

Revenue:  Total revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 totaled $570,016, compared to $510,259 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.  Oil revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 was $213,813, compared to $302,117 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. The $88,304 decrease in oil revenue represented a 29% decline, which was primarily driven by the Morse #1-H.  The production rate of the Morse #1-H declined significantly from 2013 to 2014, resulting in a decrease of $80,723 in oil sales revenue.
 
 
Gas revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 was $283,878, compared to $146,840 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. There was an increase in gas production revenue of $87,169 on the Haggard B during the quarter ended June 30, 2014, which was due to the buyout in May 2014 of one investor’s working interest in this well.  Also, there was an increase of $45,131 on the Haggard A well due to an increase in our interest from the completion of title work. Gas production revenue from all the other wells increased by $4,738 during the quarter ended June 30, 2014, as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Transportation and gathering revenue increased to $72,325 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 from $51,173 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, due to an increase in the volume of transported gas.    

Expenses:  Total operating expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 were $1,272,398, compared to $1,113,357 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, resulting in an increase of $159,041.  This change was primarily a result of an increase in general and administrative expenses and secondarily from an increase in depletion and depreciation expense.
 
·  
General and Administrative Expense:  There was a $97,217 increase in general and administrative expense to $780,264 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, from $683,047 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. The primary reason for the increase was investor relations consulting fees of $86,250 incurred in the quarter ended June 30, 2014, resulting from an investor relations agreement entered into in late March 2014.  There was no such expense in the same period in 2013.  In addition, advertising and marketing expenses increased $10,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 from the same period in 2013, which resulted from engaging a marketing firm in 2014, whereas there was no corresponding expense in 2013.

·  
Depletion and Depreciation Expense:  Total depletion and depreciation expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 was $161,875, compared to $130,460 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.  The increase in expense was primarily a consequence of increased gross production which was compounded by an increase in Pegasi’s share of production due to the completion of title work on the Haggard A well and the May 2014 buyout agreement of an investor’s working interest in the Haggard B well. See Note 7 for additional details on the buyout agreement.

Other Income (Expenses):  Total other expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2014 were $160,382, compared to $160,349 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Income Tax Expense:  No income tax expense was incurred for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, whereas we recognized a net income tax expense of $3,515 for state franchise taxes for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Net Loss:  As a result of the above described revenue and expenses, we incurred a net loss of $862,764 for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, as compared to a net loss of $766,962 for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Revenue:  Total revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $1,134,944, compared to $891,275 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  Oil revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $459,038, compared to $525,590 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  This decrease of $66,552 represented a 13% decrease during the first six months of 2014 from the same period in 2013. The Morse #1-H had a decrease of $120,742 in period to period revenue, which is attributed to the overall decline in its production rates.   This decline was offset by increased production revenue of $54,191 from several other wells, including the Wyatt King #2 ($16,319), Haggard A ($16,860) and the Haggard B ($12,819), amongst others.  

Gas revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $523,434, compared to $244,654 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  This 114% increase in gas revenue was primarily a result of an 81% increase in production volumes, as well as a 19% increase in average gas sales price. There was an increase in gas production revenue of $177,833 on the Haggard A well during the six months ended June 30, 2014 due to the buyout in May 2014 of one of our investor’s working interest in the this well.  In addition, there was a period to period increase of $94,032 in gas production revenue on the Haggard B well due to an increase in our interest from the completion of title work during the second quarter of 2014.  We received a realized sales price of $4.55 per MCF for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $3.81 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  With greater production volumes, our transportation and gathering revenue increased to $143,283 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 from $89,697 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  
 
 
Condensate and skim oil sales amounted to $9,189 and $31,334 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. Condensate and skim oil are by-products from drilling and are only sold when a sufficient amount has been collected, resulting in fluctuations from period to period.
 
Expenses:  Total operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were $5,528,591, compared to $2,389,221 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  This increase of $3,139,370 was primarily due to increased general and administrative expenses resulting from non-cash stock-based compensation expenses incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

·  
General and Administrative Expenses:  There was a $3,000,667 increase in general and administrative expenses, to $4,637,432 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $1,636,765 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  The primary reason for the increase was stock-based compensation of $3,222,307 incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to only $393,108 stock-based compensation incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2013, an increase of $2,829,199. The compensation expense resulted from the issuance of stock options to selected employees, executives, and directors, as well as a term modification of certain previously issued stock options.

In addition, investor relations consulting fees of $198,250 were incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014, whereas no such fees were incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2013.  We engaged an investor relations firm to assist us with the implementation and maintenance of ongoing programs to increase the investment community’s awareness of our activities and to stimulate their interest in our company. 

·  
Pipeline Operating Expense:  Total pipeline operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were $156,666 compared to $104,736 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase of $51,930 was primarily the result of increased production volumes, which required an additional compressor.

·  
Depletion and Depreciation Expense:  Total depletion and depreciation for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $294,087, compared to $233,920 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  The increase in expense was primarily a consequence of increased gross production which was compounded by an increase in Pegasi’s share of production due to the completion of title work on the Haggard A well and the May 2014 buyout agreement of an investor’s working interest in the Haggard B well. See Note 7 for additional details on the buyout agreement.

Other Income (Expenses):  Total other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were $2,963,147, compared to $319,479 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, resulting in an increase of $2,643,668.   The primary reason for the increase was a warrant modification expense of $2,642,266 incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014, whereas no such expense was incurred during the same period in 2013.  This expense was incurred in connection with a warrant modification offer to investors that closed on March 31, 2014.  Certain investors agreed to modify the terms of their warrants, whereby the expiration date was extended for three years in exchange for agreeing to increase the exercise price.   

Income Tax Expense:  No income tax expense was incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014, whereas we recognized a net income tax expense of $3,515 for state franchise taxes during the six months ended June 30, 2013.  

Net Loss:  As a result of the above described revenue and expenses, we incurred a net loss of $7,356,794 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to a net loss of $1,820,940 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We held $1,238,901 in cash at June 30, 2014 made up of a majority of our cash accounts. However, a cash account had an overdraft that totaled $36, resulting in net cash of $1,238,865. We held $2,467,761 in cash at December 31, 2013, made up of a majority of our cash accounts. However, at that date, several cash accounts had an overdraft that totaled $255,628, resulting in net cash of $2,212,133. The overall decrease in cash was due to cash used in investing activities, including purchases of oil and gas mineral leases and cash used in operating activities, which exceeded funds received from sales of our common stock.

Cash provided by (used in) Operating Activities:  For the six months ended June 30, 2014, cash used by operating activities was $934,068, compared to $863,574 provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013, resulting in an decrease in cash provided by operating activities of $1,797,642. 

The net loss of $7,356,794 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 represented an increase of $5,535,854 from the net loss of $1,820,940 for the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Non-cash income and expense items for the six months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $6,344,204, an increase of $5,700,118 from $644,086 in non-cash income and expense items for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  This increase is for the reasons set forth below.
 
Non-cash expense for stock-based compensation increased by $2,829,199, to $3,222,307 during the six months ended June 30, 2014, from $393,108 incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2013.  This compensation expense resulted from the issuance of stock options to selected employees, executives, and directors as incentive for continuing our development, as well as a modification of the expiration term on certain options.  There was a warrant modification expense of $2,642,266 for the extension of select warrant terms during the six months ended June 30, 2014, whereas no such expense was incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2013. We also incurred $168,250 in non-cash expense for stock issued to consultants for the six months ended June 30, 2014, whereas no such expense was incurred in the six months ended in 2013.  Depletion and depreciation expense increased $60,167 to $294,087 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $233,920 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, primarily as a consequence of increased production.
 
Operating assets increased by $170,707 in the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to a decrease of $958,975 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, resulting in a change of $1,129,682. Approximately $860,451 of this change is the result of a decrease of $8,344 in related party receivables for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to a decrease of $868,795 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Joint interest billings receivable decreased $12,204 in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and decreased $122,290 in the six months ended June 30, 2013, resulting in a change of approximately $110,086. The decrease in both the related party receivables and joint interest billings receivable was due to payments received from working interest owners during the six months ended June 30, 2013. Trade account receivables increased by $213,265 in 2014, whereas they only increased $54,583 in 2013, adversely impacting the six month to six month cash flow comparison by $158,682. The increase during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was due to our higher working interest from the completion of title work and the buyout agreement previously mentioned.  The remaining changes in operating assets of approximately $164 consisted of changes in other assets.

Operating liabilities increased by $249,229 during the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to an increase of $1,081,453 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, resulting in a change in cash flow of $832,224. Accounts payable decreased $20,284 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, a change in cash flow of $251,508, compared to the $231,224 increase in the six months ended June 30, 2013. Accounts payable to related parties increased by $256,529 during the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to an increase of $212,872 for the same period in 2013, resulting in a change in cash flow of $43,657. Revenue payable decreased $298,529 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to an increase of $276,657 during the six months ended June 30, 2013, resulting in a change in cash flow of $575,186.  Revenue payable decreased following the completion of title opinion and the distribution to royalty owners of revenue previously held in a suspense account. The remaining changes in other operating liabilities resulted in an increase of cash flow by approximately $49,187 in the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Cash used in Investing Activities:  For the six months ended June 30, 2014, cash used in investing activities was $729,845, compared to $1,242,461 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, resulting in a change in cash flow of $512,616. We spent $692,727 on the purchases of mineral leases and additional drilling and completion costs during the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $1,233,808 spent during the six months ended June 30, 2013 on the completion of the Haggard A, the Morse #1-H and the purchase of mineral leases, resulting in a change in cash flow of $541,081. We spent $37,065 on property and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $8,595 for the six months ended June 30, 2013, resulting in a change in cash flow of $28,470.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we received $694,900 in net proceeds from the sale of units of common stock and warrants, whereas no such financing occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2013. We reduced our cash overdraft by $255,592 in the six months ended June 30, 2014, whereas we increased it by $6,102 during the six months ended June 30, 2013, resulting in a change in cash flow of $261,694.
 
 
Sources of Liquidity

Production revenue has not been sufficient to finance our operating expenses; therefore, we have had to raise capital in recent years to fund our activities. Planned lease acquisitions and exploration, development, production and marketing activities, as well as administrative requirements (such as salaries, insurance expenses, general overhead expenses, legal compliance costs and accounting expenses) will require a substantial amount of additional capital and cash flow.

We expect that additional funds raised from future financing activities will be needed to finance our operations for the next twelve months.  The extent of our drilling program in 2014 is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital.  There are no guarantees that we will be able to raise additional funds on terms acceptable to us, if at all.  We will also consider farm-out agreements, whereby we would lease parts of our properties to other operators for drilling purposes and we would receive payment based on the production.  

We are actively pursuing sources of additional capital through various financing transactions or arrangements, including farm-outs, joint venturing of projects, debt financing, equity financing and other means.  

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our consolidated financial condition, revenue, results of operations, liquidity, or capital expenditures.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our critical accounting policies, including the assumptions and judgments underlying them, are disclosed in the notes to consolidated financial statements which accompany the consolidated financial statements.  The notes to consolidated financial statements, which would substantially duplicate the disclosures required in our 2013 annual consolidated financial statements, have been omitted. These policies have been consistently applied in all material respects and address such matters as revenue recognition and depreciation methods.  The preparation of consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements and the recorded amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates. 
 
Accounts Receivable

We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and extend credit to virtually all of our customers.  Collateral is generally not required, nor is interest charged on past due balances.  Credit losses to date have not been significant and have been within management’s expectations.  In the event of complete non-performance by our customers, our maximum exposure is the outstanding accounts receivable balance at the date of non-performance.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from five to thirty-nine years.  Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives are capitalized.  Expenditures for normal maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.  Upon the sale or abandonment, the cost of the equipment and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses thereon are recognized in the operating results of the respective period.

Oil and Gas Properties

We use the full-cost method of accounting for our oil and gas producing activities, which are all located in Texas.  Accordingly, all costs associated with the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas reserves, including directly-related overhead costs, are capitalized.

All capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, including the estimated future costs to develop proved reserves, are amortized on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves.  Investments in unproved properties and major development projects are not amortized until proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs.  If the results of an assessment indicate that the properties are impaired, the amount of the impairment will be added to the capitalized costs to be amortized.
 
In addition, the capitalized costs are subject to a “ceiling test,” which limits such costs to the aggregate of the “estimated present value,” discounted at a ten percent interest rate, of future net revenue from proved reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions, plus the lower of cost or fair market value of unproved properties and less the income tax effects related to the properties. 
 
 
Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in the operating results of the respective period.
  
Fair Value of our Debt and Equity Instruments

Many of our various debt and equity transactions require us to determine the fair value of a debt or equity instrument in order to properly record the transaction in our consolidated financial statements.  Fair value is generally determined by applying widely acceptable valuation models, (e.g. the Black Scholes model) using the trading price of the underlying instrument or by comparison to instruments with comparable maturities and terms.
 
Revenue Recognition

We utilize the accrual method of accounting for crude oil and natural gas revenue, whereby revenue is recognized based on our net revenue interest in the wells.  Crude oil inventories are immaterial and are not recorded.

Gas imbalances are accounted for using the entitlement method.  Under this method, revenue is recognized only to the extent of our proportionate share of the gas sold.  However, we have no history of significant gas imbalances.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are determined using the “liability method” in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 740, Income Taxes.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which such temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the operating results of the period that includes the enactment date.  In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing GAAP.

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). We are currently evaluating the impact of adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method we will adopt by which to implement the standard.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Not required under Regulation S-K for “smaller reporting companies.”
 
ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
 
 
Based on our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as a result of the material weakness described below, as of June 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures are not designed at a reasonable assurance level and are ineffective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  The material weakness, which relates to internal control over financial reporting, that was identified is: 

 
a)  
Due to our small size, we do not have a proper segregation of duties in certain areas of our financial reporting process.  The areas where we have a lack of segregation of duties include cash receipts and disbursements, approval of purchases and approval of accounts payable invoices for payment. This control deficiency, which is pervasive in nature, results in a reasonable possibility that material misstatements of the consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We are committed to improving our financial organization.  We will look to increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function to resolve non-routine or complex accounting matters. In addition, when funds are available, we will take the following action to enhance our internal controls: Hiring additional knowledgeable personnel with technical accounting expertise to further support our current accounting personnel, which management estimates will cost approximately $100,000 per annum.  As our operations are relatively small and we continue to have net cash losses each quarter, we do not anticipate being able to hire additional internal personnel until such time as our operations are profitable on a cash basis or until our operations are large enough to justify the hiring of additional accounting personnel.  We currently engage an outside accounting firm to assist us in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements and anticipate doing so until we have a sufficient number of internal accounting personnel to achieve compliance. As necessary, we will engage consultants in the future in order to ensure proper accounting for our consolidated financial statements.

Due to the fact that our internal accounting staff consists solely of a Chief Financial Officer, additional personnel will also ensure the proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support us if personnel turn over issues within the department occur. We believe this will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues we may encounter in the future.

(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.



PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial condition, or operating results.
