ITEM 2.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other
parts of this quarterly report contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
Forward-looking statements can also be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “believes,”
“plans,” “predicts,” and similar terms. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future
performance and our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-
looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include but are not limited to those
discussed in the subsection entitled Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Future
Results and Financial Condition below. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our
financial statements and notes thereto included in this report. Our fiscal year end is December 31. All
information presented herein is based on the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 and
September 30, 2014.
Allied is an independent oil and natural gas producer involved in the exploration, development,
production and sale of oil and gas derived from properties located in Calhoun and Ritchie Counties, West
Virginia, and Goliad, Edwards and Jackson Counties, Texas.
Discussion and Analysis
General
Allied intends to utilize available cash to acquire additional oil and gas producing properties and to
implement improved production practices on existing wells to increase production and expand reserves
where practicable. Allied believes that it can achieve production growth while expanding reserves through
improved exploitation of its existing inventory of wells by disposing of non-productive wells and
enhancing producing wells. Allied also intends to continue to expand non-operated and explore
opportunities for operated acquisitions of additional oil or gas producing properties.
Recovery from producing wells is consistently evaluated to consider cost-efficient work-over methods
designed to improve the performance of the wells. When considering the drilling of new wells, we
conduct a geological review of the prospective area, in cooperation with our independent operator, to
determine the potential for oil and gas. Our own consultants then review available geophysical data
(generally seismic and gravity data) opine as to the prospect for success. In the event that our evaluation
of available geophysical data indicates that the target has significant accumulations of oil and gas, we
then consider the economic feasibility of drilling. The presence of oil and gas for any specific target
cannot guarantee economic recovery. Production depends on many factors including drilling and
completion costs, the distance to pipelines and pipeline pressure, current energy prices, accessibility to the
site, and whether the project is developmental or solely a wildcat prospect.
Allied’s business development strategy is prone to significant risks and uncertainties certain of which can
have an immediate impact on its efforts to realize positive net cash flow and deter future prospects of
production growth. Historically, Allied has not been able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations
to sustain operations and fund exploration or development costs. Therefore, there can be no assurance that
the wells currently producing revenue will provide sufficient cash flows to sustain operations. Should
Allied be unable to generate sufficient cash flow from existing properties, it may have to sell certain
properties or interests in such properties or seek financing through alternative sources such as the sale of
its common stock.

West Virginia Well Information
Allied owns varying interests in a total of 145 wells in West Virginia on several leases held by an
independent operator. Some leases contain multiple wells. All the wells in which we have an interest are
situated on developed acreage spread over 3,400 acres in Ritchie and Calhoun Counties. Depth of the
producing intervals varies from 1,730 ft to 5,472 ft. Many of our wells are situated on the same leases and
as such share production equipment in order to minimize lease operating costs.
Our working interest is defined as interest in oil and gas that includes responsibility for all drilling,
developing, and operating costs varying from 18.75% to 75%. Our net revenue interest is defined as that
portion of oil and gas production revenue after deduction of royalties, varying from 15.00% to 65.625%.
Texas Well Information
Allied owns varying interests in a total of 10 wells in Texas on four leases held by independent operators.
All the wells in which we have an interest are situated on developed acreage spread over 2,510 acres in
Goliad, Edwards and Jackson Counties. Depth of the producing intervals varies from 7,600 ft to 9,600 ft.
Our working interest is defined as interest in oil and gas that includes responsibility for all drilling,
developing, and operating costs varying from 3.73% to 21%. Our net revenue interest is defined as that
portion of oil and gas production revenue after deduction of royalties, varying from 3.9388% to 12.75%.
Exploration, Development and Operations
The dramatic decline in oil prices over the last twelve months has negatively affected Allied’s business
and continues to do as current oil and natural gas prices remain stagnant or in decline. Nevertheless, Allied
will continue to pursue its business model which includes identifying non-operated oil and gas producing
properties for purchase, seeking to acquire oil and gas leases that it can operate and implementing
improved production efficiencies on existing wells. Our criteria for purchasing oil and gas producing
properties is defined by short term returns on investment, long term growth in revenue, and development
potential, while our criteria for acquiring oil and gas leases is predicated on a proven record of historical
production and our own capacity to operate any given field. The decrease in prices for oil and the
continuation of low natural gas prices is yet to increase the number of opportunities available to us due to
our relatively limited cash position and the general belief among those in the energy business that prices
will rebound in the near term stabilizing at $50-60 per barrel within the next 24 months.
We are further considering future prospects for the development of the virtually untapped Marcellus and
Utica shale formations that appear to underlie Allied’s oil and gas interests in West Virginia, particularly
in Ritchie County. The Marcellus and Utica shale structures that have formed under much of
Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, West Virginia and adjacent states have become a major reservoir for
hydrocarbon recovery. Drilling by other companies in Ritchie County has indicated successful rates of
recovery and our own open hole well logs indicate the presence of potentially productive Marcellus shale
at a depth of 6,000 feet varying in thickness from 50 – 60 feet. We have been approached by active
operators in the area to conduct potential joint development of this potential resource with the expectation
that hydrocarbon reserves meet the probable reserves criteria. However, since exploration of the
Marcellus and Utica shale in Ritchie County is still in the early stages of development no oil or natural
gas reserves underlying our interests have yet been determined and no joint development agreement has
been reached. We intend to conduct a probable reserve evaluation this year to value probable reserves.
Nevertheless, our future plans to develop these shale formations has been significantly tempered by the
high risk/reward ratio of exploratory drilling and the drastic decline in oil prices combined with sustained
lower prices for natural gas.

Results of Operations
During the period from January 1, 2015 through September 30, 2015, Allied was engaged in evaluating
acquisition opportunities, examining the operating efficiencies of existing wells, and overseeing the
operation of its oil and gas assets by independent operators. The operation and maintenance of Allied’s oil
and gas operations is wholly dependent on the services provided by five different independent operators.
While the services provided by these operators have proven adequate, the fact that Allied is dependent on
the operations of third parties to maintain its operations and produce revenue does impact its own ability
to realize a net profit.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, Allied realized a net loss due primarily to the decline in
energy prices over the comparable nine month period. Allied believes that the immediate key to its ability
to return to profitability is energy prices. Unless oil and gas prices rise, and expenses remain relatively
consistent, Allied will continue to realize net losses in future periods.

Revenue
Revenue for the three month period ended September 30, 2015, decreased to $89,892 from $158,417 for
the comparable period ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of 43%. Revenue for the nine month period
ended September 30, 2015, decreased to $254,183 from $424,862 for the comparable period ended
September 30, 2014, a decrease of 40%. The decrease in revenue over the comparable three and nine
month periods can be attributed to the drastic decrease in oil prices and sustained lower natural gas prices
despite the increase in oil production in the current period.
Allied believes that revenue will increase in future periods based on current assets only if energy prices
increase and production levels remain relatively consistent.
10
Net Losses/Income
Net losses for the three month period ended September 30, 2015, were $42,850 as compared to net
income of $7,444 for the three month period ended September 30, 2014. Net losses for the nine month
period ended September 30, 2015, increased to $177,411 as compared to net losses of $45,161 for the
nine month period ended September 30, 2014, an increase of 293%. The transition to net losses over the
comparable three month periods and the increase in net losses over the comparable nine month periods
can be attributed to the fall in revenue associated with the significant decrease in energy prices over the
current periods.
Allied does not expect to return to net income in future periods based on current assets unless revenues
increase and current productivity in the field remains consistent.
Operating Expenses
General and administrative expenses for the three month period ended September 30, 2015, decreased to
$40,731 from $49,690 for the comparable three month period ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of
2%. General and administrative expenses for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015, decreased
to $162,874 from $164,882, a decrease of 1%. General and administrative expenses remained relatively
consistent over the comparable three and nine month periods.
Allied expects that general and administrative expenses will remain relatively consistent in future periods.
Depletion expenses for the three month periods ended September 30, 2015, and September 30, 2014, were
$11,333 and $12,514 respectively, a decrease of 9%. Depletion expenses for the nine month periods
ended September 30, 2015, and September 30, 2014, were $33,819 and $36,985 respectively, a decrease
of 9%.
Depletion expenses are expected to remain relatively consistent in relation to the value attributed to aging
oil and gas assets.
Production costs for the three month periods ended September 30, 2015, and September 30, 2014, were
$81,408 and $89,340 respectively, a decrease of 9%. Production costs for the nine month periods ended
September 30, 2015, and September 30, 2014, were $237,608 and $269,809 respectively, a decrease of
12%. The decrease in production costs over the three and nine month comparable periods can be
attributed to a decrease in work over costs.
Allied expects that production costs will increase over future periods as existing wells age and require
more vigorous maintenance.
Income Tax Expense
As of December 31, 2014, Allied has net operating loss (NOL) carry forwards of approximately
$2,143,000. Should substantial changes in our ownership occur there would be an annual limitation of the
amount of NOL carry forward which could be utilized. The ultimate realization of these carry forwards is
due, in part, on the tax law in effect at the time and future events, which cannot be determined. During the
year ended December 31, 2014, a valuation allowance was recorded against this net operating loss carried
forward.
11
Capital Expenditures
Allied made no capital expenditures on property or equipment for the nine months ended September 30,
2015 or 2014.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Allied had a working capital surplus of $1,323,260 as of September 30, 2015, and has funded its cash
needs since inception with revenues generated from operations, debt instruments and private equity
placements. Existing working capital and anticipated cash flow are expected to be sufficient to fund
operations over the next twelve months.
Total current assets as of September 30, 2015, were $1,336,969 which consisted of $1,305,951 in cash
and $31,018 in accounts receivable. Total assets were $2,622,887 which consisted of current assets,
proven oil and gas properties of $581,217 and deposits of $704,701.
Total current liabilities as of September 30, 2015, were $13,709 which consisted of accounts payable.
Total liabilities were $245,553 which consisted of current liabilities and an asset retirement obligation of
$231,844.
Stockholders’ equity as of September 30, 2015, was $2,377,334.
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine month period ended September 30, 2015 was $106,210
as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $32,128 for the nine month period ended
September 30, 2014. Net cash used in operating activities in the current period can be attributed primarily
to a number of items that are book expense items which do not affect the total amount relative to actual
cash used including depletion and amortization, and accretion expense. Balance sheet accounts that
actually affect cash, but are not income statement related items that are added or deducted to arrive at net
cash used in operating activities, include accounts receivable and accounts payable.
Allied expects to continue to rely on net cash flow used in operating activities until net losses decrease or
are eliminated as the result of any increase in energy prices.
Net cash flow used in investing activities for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, and
September 30, 2014, was nil.
Allied expects to use cash flow in investing activities over future periods as it continues to evaluate
existing wells, identify exploration opportunities and considers additional acquisitions which activities
will require investment.
Net cash flow from financing activities for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2015, and
September 30, 2014, was nil.
Allied does not expect to realize cash flow from financing activities in the near term.
Allied has adopted a stock option plan pursuant to which it can grant up to 750,000 options to purchase
shares of its common stock to employees, directors, officers, consultants or advisors on the terms and
conditions set forth therein. As of September 30, 2015, 600,000 options with an exercise price of $0.35
had been granted, all of which have vested.
Allied has no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements in place.
12
Allied had no commitments for future capital expenditures that were material at September 30, 2015.
Allied has no defined benefit plan or contractual commitment with any of its officers or directors except
each member’s participation in our stock option plan and an executive agreement with its chief executive
officer that provides for a monthly fee and participation in our stock option plan.
Allied has no current plans for the purchase or sale of any plant or equipment.
Allied has no current plans to make any changes in the number of employees.
Allied does not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2015, Allied has no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are
reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial
condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources
that are material to stockholders.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Accounting for Oil and Gas Property Costs. Allied (i) follows the successful efforts method of accounting
for the costs of its oil and gas properties, (ii) amortizes such costs using the units of production method
and (iii) evaluates its proven properties for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. Adverse changes in conditions (primarily gas
price declines) could result in permanent write-downs in the carrying value of oil and gas properties as
well as non-cash charges to operations that would not affect cash flows.
Estimates of Proved Oil and Gas Reserves. An independent petroleum engineer annually estimates
Allied’s proven reserves. Reserve engineering is a subjective process that is dependent upon the quality of
available data and the interpretation thereof. In addition, subsequent physical and economic factors such
as the results of drilling, testing, production and product prices may justify revision of such estimates.
Therefore, actual quantities, production timing, and the value of reserves may differ substantially from
estimates. A reduction in proved reserves would result in an increase in depreciation, depletion and
amortization expense.
Estimates of Asset Retirement Obligations. In accordance with ASC 410, Allied makes estimates of
future costs and the timing thereof in connection with recording its future obligations to plug and abandon
wells. Estimated abandonment dates will be revised in the future based on changes to related economic
lives, which vary with product prices and production costs. Estimated plugging costs may also be adjusted
to reflect changing industry experience. Increases in operating costs and decreases in product prices
would increase the estimated amount of the obligation and increase depreciation, depletion and
amortization expense. Cash flows would not be affected until costs to plug and abandon were actually
incurred.
Critical Accounting Policies
In Note 1 to the audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, included
in our Form 10-K, Allied discusses those accounting policies that are considered to be significant in
determining the results of operations and its financial position. Allied believes that the accounting
principles utilized by it conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The preparation of financial statements requires Allied’s management to make significant estimates and
judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. By their nature,
these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. On an on-going basis, Allied evaluates
estimates. Allied bases its estimates on historical experience and other facts and circumstances that are
believed to be reasonable, and the results form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of
assets and liabilities. The actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Updates
(ASU) 2014-15 requiring an entity’s management to evaluate whether there are conditions or events,
considered in aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern
within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or within one year after the date that
the financial statements are available to be issued when applicable). The amendments to (ASU) 2014-15
are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim
periods thereafter. Early application is permitted.
14
In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Updates
(ASU) 2015-03 which requires that debt issuance costs be reported in the balance sheet as a direct
deduction from the face amount of the related liability, consistent with the presentation of debt discounts.
Prior to the amendments, debt issuance costs were presented as a deferred charge (i.e., an asset) on the
balance sheet. The ASU provides examples illustrating the balance sheet presentation of notes net of their
related discounts and debt issuance costs. Further, the amendments require the amortization of debt
issuance costs to be reported as interest expense. Similarly, debt issuance costs and any discount or
premium are considered in the aggregate when determining the effective interest rate on the debt. The
amendments to (ASU) 2015-03 are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2015, and
for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. The amendments must be applied retrospectively. Early
application is permitted.
Other pronouncements issued by the FASB or other authoritative accounting standards groups with future
effective dates are either not applicable or are not expected to be significant to the financial statements of
Allied.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of this report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by Allied’s
management, with the participation of the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the
effectiveness of Allied’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is
recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s
rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including
the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosures.
Based on that evaluation, Allied’s management concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this
report, that Allied’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in recording, processing,
summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods specified in the
Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information was accumulated and communicated to
management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of
the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2015, that materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, Allied’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A.
RISK FACTORS
Our future operating results are highly uncertain. Before deciding to invest in us or to maintain or increase
your investment, you should carefully consider the risks described below, in addition to the other
information contained in this quarterly report. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial
condition or results of operations could be seriously harmed. In that event, the market price for our
common stock could decline and you might lose all or part of your investment.
Risks Related to Allied’s Business
We have a history of significant operating losses, which losses may reoccur in the future.
Since our inception in 1979, our expenses have often exceeded our income, resulting in losses and an
accumulated deficit of $7,367,366 at December 31, 2014, which had increased to $7,544,777 at
September 30, 2015. We recorded a net loss of $177,411 for the nine month period ended September 30,
2015 and may continue to realize net losses if revenues do not increase. Any expectation of future
profitability depends on higher energy prices and consistent production . Allied’s success in this
continued endeavor can in no way be assured.
Oil and natural gas prices are volatile. Any substantial decrease in prices would adversely affect our
financial results.
Allied’s future financial condition, results of operations and the carrying value of our oil and natural gas
properties depend primarily upon the prices we receive for oil and natural gas production. Oil and natural
gas prices historically have been volatile and are likely to continue to be volatile in the future. Allied’s
cash flow from operations is highly dependent on the prices we receive for oil and natural gas. This price
volatility also affects the amount of Allied’s cash flow available for capital expenditures and our ability to
borrow money or raise additional capital. The prices for oil and natural gas are subject to a variety of
additional factors that are beyond our control. These factors include:
§ the level of consumer demand for oil and natural gas;
§ the domestic and foreign supply of oil and natural gas;
§ the ability of the members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries to agree to and
maintain oil price and production controls;
§ the price of foreign oil and natural gas;
§ domestic governmental regulations and taxes;
§ the price and availability of alternative fuel sources;
§ weather conditions;
§ market uncertainty;
§ political conditions or hostilities in energy producing regions, including the Middle East; and
§ worldwide economic conditions.
These factors and the volatility of the energy markets generally make it extremely difficult to predict
future oil and natural gas price movements with any certainty. Declines in oil and natural gas prices
16
would not only reduce revenue, but could reduce the amount of oil and natural gas that Allied can
produce economically and, as a result, could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition,
results of operations and reserves. Should the oil and natural gas industry experience significant price
declines, Allied may, among other things, be unable to meet our financial obligations or make planned
expenditures.
Allied’s future performance depends on its ability to find or acquire additional oil or natural gas
reserves.
Unless Allied successfully replaces the reserves that it produces, defined reserves will decline, resulting in
a decrease in oil and natural gas production, that will produce lower revenues, in turn decreasing cash
flows from operations. Allied has historically obtained the majority of its reserves through acquisition.
The business of exploring for, developing or acquiring reserves is capital intensive. Allied may not be
able to obtain the necessary capital to acquire additional oil or natural gas reserves if cash flows from
operations are reduced, and access to external sources of capital is unavailable. Should Allied not make
significant capital expenditures to increase reserves it will not be able to maintain current production rates
and expenses will continue to exceed revenue.
The results of our operations are wholly dependent on the production and maintenance efforts of
independent operators.
The operation and maintenance of our oil and natural gas operations is wholly dependent on independent
local operators. While the services provided by operators of our properties in the past have proven
adequate for the successful operation of our oil and natural gas wells, the fact that we are dependent on
operations of third parties to produce revenue from our assets could restrict our ability to generate a net
profit on operations.
Risks Related to the Company’s Stock
The market for our stock is limited and our stock price may be volatile.
The market for our common stock is limited due to low trading volumes and the small number of
brokerage firms acting as market makers. The average daily trading volume for our stock has varied
significantly from week to week and from month to month, and the trading volume often varies widely
from day to day. Due to these limitations there is volatility in the market price and tradability of our stock,
which may cause our shareholders difficulty in selling their shares in the market place.
Allied has not paid dividends to the shareholders of its common stock.
Allied has not paid any dividends to the shareholders of its common stock and has no intention of paying
dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future dividends would be at the discretion of our board of
directors and would depend on, among other things, future earnings, our operating and financial
condition, our capital requirements, and general business conditions.
17
Allied may require additional capital funding.
Allied may require additional funds, either through additional equity offerings or debt placements, in
order to expand our operations. Such additional capital may result in dilution to our current shareholders.
Further, our ability to meet short-term and long-term financial commitments will depend on future cash.
There can be no assurance that future income will generate sufficient funds to enable us to meet our
financial commitments.
If the market price of our common stock declines as our security holders sell their stock, selling
security holders or others may be encouraged to engage in short selling, depressing the market price.
The significant downward pressure on the price of the common stock as security holders sell material
amounts of common stock could encourage short sales by the selling security holders or others. Short
selling is the selling of a security that the seller does not own, or any sale that is completed by the delivery
of a security borrowed by the seller. Short sellers assume that they will be able to buy the stock at a lower
amount than the price at which they sold it short. Significant short selling of Allied’s stock would create
an incentive for market participants to reduce the value of our common stock. If a significant market for
short selling in our common stock develops, the market price for our common stock could be significantly
depressed.
Allied’s common stock is currently deemed to be “penny stock”, which makes it more difficult for
investors to sell their shares.
Allied’s common stock is and will be subject to the “penny stock” rules adopted under section 15(g) of
the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules apply to companies whose common stock is not listed on the
NASDAQ Stock Market or other national securities exchange and trades at less than $5.00 per share or
that have tangible net worth of less than $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has been operating for
three or more years). These rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade penny stock to
persons other than “established customers” complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of
investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a
risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided
not to trade penny stocks because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the number
of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. If Allied remains subject to
the penny stock rules for any significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market, if any, for
Allied’s securities. If Allied’s securities are subject to the penny stock rules, investors will find it more
difficult to dispose of Allied’s securities.
