INFINITY ENERGY RESOURCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
     Effective September 9, 2005, Infinity, Inc. merged with and into its wholly-owned subsidiary Infinity Energy Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation, for the purpose of changing its domicile from Colorado to Delaware. As a result of the merger, the legal domicile of Infinity, Inc. was changed to Delaware and its name was changed to Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. At the effective time of the merger, shares of Infinity, Inc. were converted into an equal number of shares of common stock of Infinity Energy Resources, Inc.
     Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Infinity” or the “Company”) are engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of natural gas and crude oil in the United States and the acquisition and exploration of oil and gas properties in Nicaragua. In addition, the Company provides oilfield services in the Mid-Continent region and in northeast Wyoming.
Basis of Presentation
     The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including Consolidated Oil Well Services, Inc. (“Consolidated”), Infinity Oil & Gas of Wyoming, Inc., Infinity Oil and Gas of Texas, Inc., Infinity Oil & Gas of Kansas, Inc. and CIS — Oklahoma, Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
     The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period presentation to conform to the classifications used in the current period. These reclassifications did not have an impact on previously reported results of operations. The consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with Infinity’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005.
     The preparation of unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States 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 unaudited consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates with regard to the unaudited consolidated financial statements include the estimated carrying value of unproved properties, the estimate of proved oil and gas reserve volumes and the related present value of estimated future net cash flows and the ceiling test applied to capitalized oil and gas properties, the estimated cost and timing related to asset retirement obligations, the estimated fair value of derivative liabilities and the realizability of deferred tax assets.
Oil and Gas Properties
     The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties. Accordingly, all costs associated with property acquisition, exploration, and development of properties (including costs of surrendered and abandoned leaseholds, delay lease rentals and dry holes) and the fair value of estimated future costs of site restoration, dismantlement, and abandonment activities are capitalized. Overhead related to exploration and development activities is also capitalized. The Company capitalized $252,000 and $220,000 of internal costs during the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Costs associated with production and general corporate activities are expensed in the period incurred.
     Pursuant to full cost accounting rules, the Company performs a ceiling test each quarter. The ceiling test provides that capitalized costs less related accumulated depletion and deferred income taxes may not exceed the sum of (1) the present value of future net revenue from estimated production of proved oil and gas reserves using current prices, including the effects of derivative instruments

Table of Contents

designated as cash flow hedges but excluding the future cash outflows associated with settling asset retirement obligations that have been accrued on the balance sheet, using a discount factor of 10%; plus (2) the cost of properties not being amortized, if any; plus (3) the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties, if any; less (4) related income tax effects related to differences in the book and tax basis of oil and gas properties. If capitalized costs exceed the ceiling, the excess must be charged to expense and may not be reversed in future periods.
     At March 31, 2006, the carrying value of the Company’s oil and gas properties exceeded the full cost ceiling limitation by approximately $9,100,000, based upon a natural gas price of approximately $6.62 per Mcf and an oil price of approximately $66.11 per barrel in effect at that date. A decline in prices received for oil and gas sales or an increase in operating costs subsequent to the measurement date or reductions in estimated economically recoverable quantities could result in the recognition of an additional ceiling write-down of oil and gas properties in a future period.
     Aggregate capitalized costs relating to the Company’s oil and gas producing activities, and related accumulated depreciation, depletion, amortization and ceiling write-downs are as follows:
                 
    As of  
    March 31,     December 31,  
    2006     2005  
    (in thousands)  
Proved oil and gas properties
  $ 86,076     $ 75,484  
Unproved oil and gas properties
    24,279       22,849  
 
           
Total
    110,355       98,333  
Less accumulated depreciation, depletion, amortization and ceiling write-downs
    (42,115 )     (31,785 )
 
           
Net capitalized costs
  $ 68,240     $ 66,548  
 
           
     Depletion of proved oil and gas properties is computed on the units-of-production method, whereby capitalized costs, as adjusted for future development costs and asset retirement obligations, are amortized over total estimated proved reserves. The costs of wells in progress and unevaluated properties, including any related capitalized interest, are not amortized.
     Investments in unproved properties are not depleted pending determination of the existence of proved reserves. Unproved properties are assessed periodically to determine whether impairment has occurred. Unproved properties whose costs are individually significant are assessed individually by considering the primary lease terms of the properties, the holding periods of the properties, and geographic and geologic data obtained relating to the properties. Where it is not practicable to assess individually the amount of impairment of properties for which costs are not individually significant, such properties are grouped for purposes of assessing impairment. The amount of impairment assessed is added to the costs to be amortized.
     Proceeds from the sales of oil and gas properties are accounted for as adjustments to 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 income. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to production expense in the period incurred.
Derivative Instruments
     The Company accounts for derivative instruments or hedging activities under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 133 requires the Company to record derivative instruments at their fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portions of changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and are recognized in the statement of operations when the hedged item affects earnings. Ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges, if any, are recognized in earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not qualify for hedge treatment are recognized in earnings.
     The Company periodically hedges a portion of its oil and gas production through swap and collar agreements. The purpose of the hedges is to provide a measure of stability to the Company’s cash flows in an environment of volatile oil and gas prices and to manage the exposure to commodity price risk.
     The Company’s senior secured notes (see Note 4) include certain terms, conditions and features that are separately accounted for as embedded derivatives at estimated fair value. In addition, the related warrants issued with the senior secured notes and non-employee options and warrants are also separately accounted for as freestanding derivatives at estimated fair value. The determination

Table of Contents

of fair value includes significant estimates by management including the remaining contractual term of the instruments, volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock, interest rates and the probability of conversion, redemption or exercise, among other items. The fluctuations in estimated fair value may be significant from period to period, which, in turn, may have a significant impact on the Company’s reported financial condition and results of operations. See Note 5.
Income Taxes
     The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. This method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between financial accounting bases and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The tax benefits of tax loss carryforwards and other deferred taxes are recorded as an asset to the extent that management assesses the utilization of such assets to be more likely than not. When the future utilization of some portion of the deferred tax asset is determined not to be more likely than not, a valuation allowance is provided to reduce the recorded deferred tax asset. As of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company had recorded a full valuation allowance for its net deferred tax asset.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
     Comprehensive income (loss) is composed of net income (loss) and all changes to stockholders’ equity, except those due to investments by stockholders, changes in additional paid-in capital and distributions to stockholders. There were no components of comprehensive income (loss) during the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005.
Note 3 — Stock Options
     Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which requires companies to recognize compensation expense for share-based payments based on the estimated fair value of the awards. SFAS No. 123(R) also requires tax benefits relating to the deductibility of increases in the value of equity instruments issued under share-based compensation arrangements that are not included in costs applicable to sales (“excess tax benefits”) to be presented as financing cash inflows in the Statement of Cash Flows. Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for share-based payments under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations, as permitted by SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. In accordance with APB No. 25, no compensation cost was required to be recognized for options granted that had an exercise price equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.
     The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method. Under this method, compensation cost recognized subsequent to December 31, 2005 will be based on the grant-date fair value for all share-based payments granted subsequent to December 31, 2005, estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R). All share-based awards outstanding as of the January 1, 2006 adoption date were fully vested. There were no stock-based awards granted during the three months ended March 31, 2006. The results for prior periods have not been restated.
Options Under Equity Incentive Plans
     In 2005, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”), under which both incentive and non-statutory stock options may be granted to employees, officers, non-employee directors and consultants. An aggregate of 475,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are reserved for issuance under the 2005 Plan. Options granted under the 2005 Plan allow for the purchase of common stock at prices not less than the fair market value of such stock at the date of grant, become exercisable immediately or as directed by the Company’s Board of Directors and generally expire ten years after the date of grant. The Company also has other equity incentive plans with terms similar to the 2005 Plan. As of March 31, 2006, 140,881 shares were available for future grants under the plans, including 140,000 available under the 2005 Plan.
     The value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected term of the option award, and stock price volatility. These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment.
     The following table summarizes stock option activity as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2006:
                 
            Weighted Average
            Exercise
    Number of Shares   Price Per Share
Outstanding, January 1, 2006

     There were no stock-based awards granted during the three months ended March 31, 2006. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2005 was $6.64 per share. Because all options granted under the Company’s stock option plans have been equal to or greater than the market value on the date of grant, no compensation cost was recognized in the statements of operations in any period.

Senior Secured Notes Facility
     The Company has a senior secured notes facility (the “Senior Secured Notes Facility”) with a group of lenders led by Promethean Asset Management, LLC (collectively, the “Buyers”). Pursuant to the terms of the Senior Secured Notes Facility, on January 13, 2005, September 7, 2005 and December 9, 2005, the Company sold, and the Buyers purchased, $30.0 million, $9.5 million and $5.5 million, respectively, principal amount of senior secured notes (the “Series A Notes,” “Series B Notes” and “Series C Notes,” respectively), and five-year warrants to purchase 924,194 shares, 732,046 shares, 283,051 shares, 224,202 shares, 191,882 shares and 151,988 shares of the Company’s common stock at exercise prices of $9.09 per share, $11.06 per share, $9.40 per share, $11.44 per share, $8.03 per share and $9.77 per share, respectively (the “Series A Warrants,” “Series B Warrants” and “Series C Warrants,” respectively). The Series A Notes have an initial maturity of 48 months subject to extension for an additional twelve months upon the mutual agreement of Infinity and the Buyers. The Series B and Series C Notes have initial maturities of 42 months (54 months if the maturity of the Series A Notes is extended).
     Pursuant to a waiver of certain terms of the Senior Secured Notes Facility, on March 17, 2006, the Company sold, and the Buyers purchased, $8.0 million of additional principal amount of senior secured notes (the “Series D Notes” and collectively with the Series A, Series B and Series C Notes, the “Notes”), and five-year warrants to purchase 258,960 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $8.65 per share and 205,128 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $10.53 per share (collectively, the “Series D Warrants” and together with the Series A, Series B and Series C Warrants, the “Warrants”). The Series D Notes have an initial maturity of 18 months, which will be extended to 42 months (54 months if the maturity of the Series A Notes is extended) if the principal amount of any series of Notes is, in one or a series of transactions, reduced (either through repayment or conversion) by at least $5 million during the period beginning on March 18, 2006 and ending on September 17, 2006.
     The Notes bear interest at the 3-month LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) plus 675 basis points, adjusted the first business day of each calendar quarter (11.36% at March 31, 2006). The Notes are secured by essentially all of the assets of Infinity and its subsidiaries and are guaranteed by each of Infinity’s active subsidiaries. Under certain circumstances at quarterly intervals and over a three year period, Infinity has the option to sell additional Notes, along with additional Warrants, in amounts up to $15 million in any rolling twelve-month period, up to an additional $25 million. Any additional Notes would have an initial maturity of 42 months (54 months if the maturity of the Series A Notes is extended). The issuance of additional Notes is subject to Infinity’s satisfaction of various closing conditions. The ability to issue additional Notes or the requirement to prepay Notes prior to maturity will depend upon a maximum Notes balance calculated quarterly based generally upon a combination of financial performance of Consolidated and the SEC after-tax PV-10% value of the Company’s proved reserves. The maximum Notes balance at March 31, 2006 exceeded the Notes outstanding on that date. The Notes include terms and covenants that place limitations on certain types of activities, including restrictions or requirements with respect to additional debt, liens, asset sales, hedging activities, investments, dividends, mergers, and acquisitions.
     The Notes are redeemable by Infinity for cash at any time during the first year at 105% of par value, declining by 1% per year thereafter (101% during any extended maturity period), together with any accrued and unpaid interest. Under certain circumstances, Infinity has the option to repay the Notes with direct issuances of shares of registered common stock in lieu of cash at a conversion rate equal to 95% of the weighted average trading price of shares of the Company’s common stock on the trading day preceding the conversion (the “Conversion Option”). In addition, the Company may elect to settle accrued interest due under the Notes with direct issuances of shares of registered common stock in lieu of cash at a conversion rate equal to 95% of the weighted average trading price of shares of the Company’s common stock on the trading day preceding the conversion. In accordance with terms of the Senior Secured Notes Facility, in January 2006, the Company elected to settle approximately $861,000 of interest accrued at December 31, 2005 (due January 3, 2006) through the issuance of 126,083 shares of common stock (see Note 8). In addition, also in accordance with terms of the Senior Secured Notes Facility, in the first quarter of 2006, the Company converted $3 million principal amount of Series B Notes, along with accrued interest of $37,000, into 382,062 shares of common stock. In connection with the conversion, the Company reclassified unamortized discount (see discussion below under Debt Discount) of $549,000 related to the converted Notes to additional paid-in-capital, reclassified Conversion Option derivative liability of $80,000 (see Note 5) to additional paid-in-capital and wrote off deferred financing costs of $122,000.
Debt Discount
     Under the provisions of SFAS No. 133 and EITF 00-19, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock, the Conversion Option and the Warrants issued in connection with the Notes qualify as derivatives. As a result, upon the issuance of each series of Notes, the Company bifurcated the Conversion Option from the Notes and accounted for it and the related Warrants as derivatives (see Note 5). The initial fair values of the Conversion Option and Warrants, which aggregated $461,000 and $10,108,000, respectively, for all four series of Notes issued to date, were recorded as debt discount. The debt discount is being amortized over the initial maturities of the Notes utilizing the effective interest method.

Table of Contents

     The Company capitalizes amortization of debt discount to oil and gas properties on expenditures made in connection with exploration and development projects that are not subject to current depletion. Amortization of debt discount is capitalized only for the period that activities are in progress to bring these projects to their intended use. Total debt discount amortized during the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 was $588,000 and $273,000, respectively, of which $255,000 and $175,000, respectively, was capitalized to oil and gas properties.
Capitalized Interest
     The Company capitalizes interest costs to oil and gas properties on expenditures made in connection with exploration and development projects that are not subject to current depletion. Interest is capitalized only for the period that activities are in progress to bring these projects to their intended use. Interest costs (including amortization of deferred financing costs) capitalized in the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 were $552,000 and $380,000, respectively.
Promissory Note to Seller
     In connection with the 2003 acquisition of a 50% interest in an aircraft, the Company entered into a promissory note in favor of the seller. The note and accrued interest were settled in full in February 2006 in connection with the sale of the aircraft.
Note 5 — Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
     The Company accounts for derivative instruments or hedging activities under the provisions of SFAS No. 133, which requires the Company to record derivative instruments at their fair value. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) and are recognized in the statement of operations when the hedged item affects earnings. Ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges, if any, are recognized in earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not qualify for hedge treatment are recognized in earnings.
Commodity Derivatives
     The Company periodically hedges a portion of its oil and gas production through fixed-price physical contracts and commodity derivative contracts. The purpose of the hedges is to provide a measure of stability to the Company’s cash flows in an environment of volatile oil and gas prices and to manage the exposure to commodity price risk. As of March 31, 2006 the Company had the following oil collar derivative arrangements outstanding:
                         
Term of Arrangements   Bbls per Day   Floor Price   Ceiling Price
January 1, 2006 – June 30, 2006
    50     $ 50.00     $ 64.40  
October 1, 2005 – December 31, 2006
    50     $ 52.50     $ 74.00  
July 1, 2006 – March 31, 2007
    50     $ 55.00     $ 77.00  
January 1, 2007 – June 30, 2007
    50     $ 57.50     $ 77.50  
     All of the collar arrangements above have been designated as cash flow hedges. As of March 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company had derivative liabilities of approximately $85,000 and $28,000, respectively, which are included in accrued liabilities on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, the Company recognized ineffectiveness of approximately $57,000 under its collar arrangements, which is reflected in Other expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company had no collars in place during the three months ended March 31, 2005. The Company paid approximately $1,800 under its collar arrangements during the three months ended March 31, 2006.
     Subsequent to March 31, 2006, the Company entered into the following natural gas collar:
                         
Term of Arrangement   MMBtu per Day   Floor Price   Ceiling Price
May 1, 2006 – July 31, 2006
    1,000     $ 4.50     $ 8.00  
Other Derivatives
     As more fully discussed in Note 4 above, in January 2005, the Company issued Notes and Warrants. Under the provisions of SFAS No. 133 and EITF 00-19 the Company bifurcated the Conversion Option associated with the Notes and accounted for it and the Warrants as derivatives. The initial fair values of the Conversion Option and the Warrants, which totaled $461,000 and $10,108,000, respectively, were recorded as debt discount. Subsequent changes in the fair value of those derivatives have been recorded as Change in derivative fair value in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2006

12


Table of Contents

and 2005, the Company recognized charges of $2,414,000 and $3,921,000, respectively, related to the change in fair value of the Conversion Option and Warrants. The charge recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2006, includes $56,500 related to the Conversion Option on the Notes converted during the period.
     In addition, as a result of the issuance of the Notes in January 2005, under the provisions of EITF 00-19, the Company was no longer able to conclude that it has sufficient authorized and unissued shares available to settle its previously issued non-employee options and warrants (the “Non-employee Options and Warrants”) after considering the commitment to potentially issue common stock under terms of the Notes if ever there is an event of default. As such, effective with the issuance of the Notes on January 13, 2005, the Company reclassified the fair value of the Non-employee Options and Warrants out of stockholders’ equity on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet and recognized them as a derivative liability of $6,090,000. Changes in the fair value of the Non-employee Options and Warrants are recorded as Change in derivative fair value in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations so long as they continue to not qualify for equity classification. Non-employee Options and Warrants that are ultimately settled in common stock will be remeasured prior to settlement and then reclassified back to stockholders’ equity; however, any gains or losses previously recognized on those instruments will remain in earnings. During February and March 2005, in connection with the exercise of 538,850 Non-employee Options and Warrants, the Company reclassified $2,174,000 back to stockholders’ equity. During the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company recognized charges of $1,046,000 and $3,992,000, respectively, related to the change in the fair value of Non-employee Options and Warrants outstanding during those periods.
Note 6 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments
     The carrying value of the Company’s cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities represents the fair value of the accounts. Long-term debt at March 31, 2006, with a carrying value of approximately $42.2 million is estimated to have a fair value between $44 million and $45 million. See Note 4 for the terms of the long-term debt obligations.
     The fair value of the Company’s non-current derivative liabilities, all of which relate to the Conversion Option, Warrants and Non-employee Options and Warrants, is estimated using various models and assumptions related to the estimated term of the instruments, volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock, interest rates and the probability of conversion, redemption or exercise, among other items.
Note 7 — Earnings Per Share
     Basic income (loss) per common share is computed as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per common share is computed as net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares, using the treasury stock method, outstanding during the period.
     For the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the Company’s common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive; therefore the impact of 5,960,747 and 5,256,000, respectively, of common stock equivalents were not included because their effect was anti-dilutive. The number of common stock equivalents excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation does not include any shares that may be issued in the future should the Company elect to repay Notes outstanding under the Senior Secured Notes Facility with direct issuances of shares of registered common stock in lieu of cash at a conversion rate equal to 95% of the weighted average trading price of shares of the Company’s common stock on the trading day preceding conversion.
Note 8 — Subsequent Event
     In accordance with terms of the Senior Secured Notes Facility, in April 2006, the Company elected to settle approximately $1,170,000 of interest accrued at March 31, 2006 (due April 3, 2006) through the issuance of 177,212 shares of common stock. Since the interest was settled with other than current assets, the accrued interest at March 31, 2006 has been classified as long-term.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
     Effective September 9, 2005, Infinity, Inc. merged with and into its wholly-owned subsidiary Infinity Energy Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation, for the purpose of changing its domicile from Colorado to Delaware. As a result of the merger, the legal domicile of Infinity, Inc. was changed to Delaware and its name was changed to Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. At the effective time of the merger, shares of Infinity, Inc. were converted into an equal number of shares of common stock of Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. The reincorporation did not result in any change in headquarters, business, jobs, location of any facilities, number of employees, assets, liabilities, or net worth. Management, including all directors and officers, remain the same as prior to the reincorporation.
     The following information should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes presented elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Infinity follows the full-cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties. See “Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation,” included in Note 1 to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. Infinity and its operating subsidiaries (Infinity Oil and Gas of Texas, Inc. (“Infinity-Texas”), Infinity Oil & Gas of Wyoming, Inc. (“Infinity-Wyoming”), and Consolidated Oil Well Services, Inc. (“Consolidated”)) are engaged in identifying and acquiring oil and gas acreage, exploring and developing acquired acreage, oil and gas production, and providing oilfield services. Infinity’s primary focuses are on: (i) the acquisition, exploration and development of and production from its properties in the Fort Worth Basin of north central Texas and the Greater Green River, Sand Wash and Piceance Basins of southwest Wyoming and northwest Colorado; and (ii) providing oilfield services in the Mid-Continent region and the Powder River Basin of northeast Wyoming. Infinity has also been awarded a 1.4 million acre concession offshore Nicaragua in the Caribbean Sea which it intends to explore over the next few years subject to the long-term development and production contract governing such activity.

     Forward-looking statements inherently involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to the following (and the risks described under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K):
    fluctuations in oil and natural gas prices and production;
 
    availability of drilling rigs, completion services and other support equipment;
 
    incorrect estimations of required capital expenditures;
 
    uncertainties inherent in estimating quantities of oil and gas reserves and projecting future rates of production and timing thereof;
 
    delays or difficulties in exploration, exploitation and development activities;
 
    increases in the cost of oil and gas drilling, completion and production and in materials, fuel and labor costs;
 
    the availability, conditions and timing of required government approvals and third party financing, including failure to satisfy the maximum notes balance requirements under the senior secured notes facility;
 
    a decline in demand for Infinity’s oil and gas production or oilfield services;
 
    delays in environmental and permitting factors; and
 
    changes in general economic conditions.
Overview of Exploration and Production Activity
     Infinity, through Infinity-Texas, continued to expand its exploration and production operations in the Fort Worth Basin of Texas. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, Infinity-Texas:
    Drilled five horizontal wells and one vertical well targeting the Barnett Shale formation;
 
    Increased production from the Fort Worth Basin in north central Texas by approximately 80% as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2005;
 
    Made capital additions of approximately $11 million, including costs for leasehold additions, seismic acquisition and interpretation, and the drilling, completing and equipping of wells;
     Infinity plans to continue to explore, exploit and develop its Fort Worth Basin acreage and its Rocky Mountain projects and prospects. Infinity expects its Rocky Mountain projects to proceed more slowly, due in part to governmental and environmental restrictions and regulations. Infinity raised incremental debt and equity capital to fund its exploration and production operations from the net proceeds of the Senior Secured Notes Facility and from the proceeds of option and warrant exercises during the first three months of 2006. In addition to expected increases in cash flows from operating activities, Infinity will require external financing during 2006 and beyond to fund its exploration and production operations, although the type, timing, cost and amounts of such financing, if any, will depend upon general energy and capital markets conditions and the success of Infinity’s operations.
     The following table provides statistical information for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005:

     Under full cost accounting rules, Infinity reviews, on a quarterly basis, the carrying value of its oil and gas properties. Under these rules, capitalized costs of proved oil and gas properties may not exceed the present value of estimated future revenue at the prices in effect as of the end of each fiscal quarter, and a write-down for accounting purposes is required if the ceiling is exceeded. At March 31, 2006, the carrying value of the Company’s oil and gas properties exceeded the full cost ceiling limitation by approximately $9,100,000 based upon a natural gas price of approximately $6.62 per Mcf and an oil price of approximately $66.11 per barrel in effect at that date. Had subsequent commodity prices, which peaked on April 21, 2006, been utilized in the Company’s ceiling test, no write down would have been required. A decline in prices received for oil and gas sales or an increase in operating costs subsequent to the measurement date or reductions in estimated economically recoverable quantities could result in the recognition of an additional ceiling write-down of oil and gas properties in a future period.
Overview of Oilfield Service Operations
     Consolidated continued to develop its business as the largest oilfield service provider in eastern Kansas and northeast Oklahoma. The continued strong price of natural gas and crude oil and the focus on development of the coal bed methane potential of the Cherokee basin in eastern Kansas and northeast Oklahoma and the Powder River Basin in northeastern Wyoming contributed to an overall increase in activity for Consolidated. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, Consolidated achieved several operational milestones:
    record quarterly revenue of $8.5 million;
 
    subsidiary level gross profit of approximately $4.6 million;
 
    provided services to more than 270 customers; and
 
    subsidiary level income before taxes of approximately $3.4 million.
     Consolidated has expanded its pressure pumping fleet through the fabrication and construction of additional equipment. Consolidated is also seeking opportunities, through acquisitions or mergers, to expand its service area or enhance the services it provides to its customers.

2006 Operational and Financial Objectives
Exploration and Production
     Infinity-Texas plans to focus on increasing its production and acreage position in the Fort Worth Basin of northcentral Texas. Infinity-Texas anticipates its remaining 2006 capital expenditures will be approximately $29 million to drill between 16 and 18 wells, complete one well in progress at March 31, 2006, conduct additional geological and geophysical analysis on its acreage and acquire additional acreage. Since March 31, 2006 and through May 8, 2006, Infinity-Texas has vertically drilled three wells in Comanche County, and horizontally drilled two wells in Erath County. Through such date two horizontal wells have been completed as producers and one horizontal well and the three vertical wells are waiting completion operations. Infinity-Texas may increase its capital expenditures and drilling activity through the contracting of an additional drilling rig.
     The Company’s ability to complete these activities is dependent on a number of factors including, but not limited to:
    The availability of the capital resources required to fund the activity;
 
    The availability of third party contractors for drilling rigs and completion services (although the Company has one rig under contract and operating in Erath County, Texas); and
 
    The approval by regulatory agencies of applications for permits to drill in a timely manner.
     Infinity-Wyoming plans to focus on increasing production through development of acreage. Infinity-Wyoming anticipates remaining 2006 capital expenditures will be less than $1 million to complete one well in progress at December 31, 2005, conduct additional geological and geophysical analysis, and increase its acreage position in the Sand Wash Basin of northwestern Colorado.
Oilfield Services
     Consolidated plans to increase its oilfield service revenue during 2006 as a result of the expansion of its fleet during 2005 and 2006 and due to the expected increase in the number of wells to be drilled and completed by property owners in its service areas. Strategic acquisitions, if any, made in the future would be made in order to:
    expand the services that are provided;
 
    expand the area that is serviced; and
 
    gain market share by providing complementary services to Consolidated’s existing services.
     Management believes that if it is able to identify strategic acquisitions during 2006, it would expect to fund any such acquisitions, which could individually cost up to $20 million, through external financings, which may include the issuance of subordinated debt or equity securities. Excluding acquisitions and related capital expenditures, Consolidated expects capital expenditures to approximate $3 million for the remainder of 2006 related to equipment and facilities. Management expects these capital expenditures to be financed through Consolidated’s cash flow from operations and cash on hand.

Corporate Activities
     Infinity has completed negotiations of the final development and production agreement with the Instituto Nicaraguense de Energia for the Perlas and Tyra blocks offshore Nicaragua and will be required to post a performance bond of less than $1 million for the initial work on the leases which will include an environmental study and the development of geological information from reprocessing and additional evaluation of existing 2-D seismic data to be acquired.
Results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2005
Net Loss
     Infinity reported net loss after taxes of $11.3 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, in the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to net loss after taxes of $9.5 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, in the prior year period. The change between periods was the result of the items discussed below.
Revenue
     Infinity achieved total revenue of $10.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to $5.5 million in the prior year period. The $5.3 million, or 96%, increase in revenue consisted of a $4.4 million increase in oilfield service revenue and a $0.9 million increase in oil and gas revenue. The increase in oilfield service revenue was attributable to a 59% increase in the number of jobs completed in the 2006 period compared to the 2005 period and a 31% increase in the average revenue per job in the 2006 period compared to the 2005 period. The increase in oil and gas revenue was the result of improved price realizations for both oil and gas combined with higher oil sales volumes, partially offset by lower gas sales volumes. The increase in oil sales volumes was due primarily to successful developmental drilling in the Sand Wash Basin in northwest Colorado. Declines in gas sales volumes from the Company’s Pipeline field were partially offset by new production from exploratory drilling results in the Fort Worth Basin. The 60% decline in gas production from the Company’s Pipeline field in southern Wyoming was largely attributable to production shut-ins that resulted from third-party gathering and compression equipment freeze-ups during January 2006 compounded by the lack of availability of third-party workover rigs and pulling units needed to fully restore production.
Cost of Revenue
     Infinity’s cost of revenue increased to $5.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, from $2.6 million in the prior year period. Oilfield service costs increased to $3.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2006, from $2.0 million in the prior year period. The increase was principally attributable to increased materials, maintenance, fuel and labor costs resulting largely from the increase in the number of jobs performed in the 2006 period compared to the 2005 period. Oil and gas production expenses increased to $1.1 million, or $3.58 per Mcfe, during the three months ended March 31, 2006, from $0.4 million, or $1.65 per Mcfe, in the prior year period. The increase in production expenses was attributable to costs incurred at the Company’s Sand Wash Basin property, which began producing in March 2005, and Fort Worth Basin properties, which began producing in the second quarter of 2005, as well as higher workover costs at the Company’s Pipeline field resulting from the extended production shut-in which occurred during the quarter. Oil and gas production taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 remained relatively constant at $0.2 million.
Gross Profit
     Infinity earned a gross profit of $5.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2006, a $2.7 million or 93% increase from $2.9 million gross profit in the prior year period. Gross profit from oilfield services was $4.6 million, or 54% of revenue, during the three months ended March 31, 2006, compared to $2.1 million, or 51% of revenue, in the prior year period. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of oilfield service revenue was due principally to an increase in higher margin frac jobs and lower than average down days as a result of better than average weather during the 2006 quarter. Gross profit from oil and gas operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 increased to $1.0 million from $0.8 million primarily as a result of increased revenue as discussed above.
General and Administrative Expenses
     General and administrative expenses increased to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2006, from $1.3 million in the prior year period. The increase was largely due to an increase in personnel and personnel related costs, costs associated with the Company’s Sarbanes-Oxley compliance efforts, and increased cost of being incorporated in Delaware.

Depreciation, Depletion, Amortization and Accretion
     Depreciation, depletion, amortization and accretion (“DD&A”) expense recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, was $1.6 million. Increased DD&A in the 2006 period resulting from an increase in Consolidated’s fleet and an increase in the Company’s oil and gas properties subject to depletion as of March 31, 2006 was offset by decreased depletion resulting from an increase in proved oil and gas reserve volumes associated with the Company’s exploration and development program.
Ceiling Write-Down
     At March 31, 2006, the carrying value of the Company’s oil and gas properties exceeded the full cost ceiling limitation by approximately $9,100,000, based upon a natural gas price of approximately $6.62 per Mcf and an oil price of approximately $66.11 per barrel in effect at that date. A decline in prices received for oil and gas sales or an increase in operating costs subsequent to the measurement date or reductions in estimated economically recoverable quantities could result in the recognition of an additional ceiling write-down of oil and gas properties in a future period.
Other Income (Expense)
     Other income and expense was a net expense of $4.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2006 compared to a net expense of $9.5 million in the prior year period. The change of $5.0 million was principally due to (i) a $4.5 million decrease in the charge recognized in the 2006 period compared to the 2005 period for the change in derivative fair value, (ii) an $0.8 million decrease in early extinguishment of debt expense, and (iii) a $0.3 million gain on the sale of an aircraft in February 2006, offset partially by a $0.3 million increase in interest expense due to an increase in average debt outstanding and higher average interest rates during the 2006 period and a $0.2 million increase in amortization costs resulting from increased loan costs incurred in connection with the Company’s senior secured notes facility.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
     Infinity’s primary sources of liquidity are cash provided by operations and debt and equity financing. Infinity’s primary needs for cash are for the operation, development, production, exploration and acquisition of oil and gas properties, for fulfillment of working capital obligations, and for the operation and development of the oilfield service business. As of March 31, 2006, the Company had working capital of $0.1 million, compared to working capital of $1.6 million at December 31, 2005.
     During the three months ended March 31, 2006, cash provided by operating activities was $3.6 million, compared to $1.9 million in the prior year period. The increase in cash provided by operating activities of $1.7 million was primarily due to improved gross profit, partially offset by increased interest expense and general and administrative expenses.
     During the three months ended March 31, 2006, Infinity used $13.0 million in investing activities, compared to $15.0 million used in the prior year period. The decrease in cash used in investing activities of $2.0 million was primarily attributable to a $2.9 million decrease in exploration and production capital expenditures partially offset by a $0.7 million increase in oilfield services capital expenditures.
     During the three months ended March 31, 2006, cash provided by financing activities was $7.5 million, compared to $22.5 million provided by financing activities during the prior year period. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities of $15.0 million was principally due to a $20.2 million decrease in net cash proceeds provided by the sale of Senior Secured Notes and a $4.0 million decrease in net proceeds from issuance of common stock, partially offset by a $9.2 million decrease in repayment of long-term debt.
Senior Secured Notes Facility
     As of March 31, 2006, the Company had issued an aggregate of $50.0 million principal amount of senior secured notes (the “Notes”) under its senior secured notes facility (the “Senior Secured Notes Facility”). The Notes were issued in four separate transactions in January, September and December 2005 and March 2006. The Notes bear interest at 3-month LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) plus 675 basis points, adjusted the first business day of each calendar quarter (11.36% at March 31, 2006), and are secured by essentially all of the assets of Infinity and its subsidiaries and are guaranteed by each of Infinity’s active subsidiaries. The Notes issued in January 2005 have an initial maturity of 48 months subject to extension for an additional twelve months upon the mutual agreement of the Company and holders of the Notes. The Notes issued in September and December 2005 have initial maturities of 42 months (54 months if the maturity of the January 2005 Notes is extended). The Notes issued in March 2006 have an initial maturity of 18 months, which will be extended to 42 months (54 months if the maturity of the January 2005 Notes is extended) if the principal amount of any series of Notes is, in one or a series of transactions, reduced (either through repayment or conversion) by at least $5 million during the period beginning on March 18, 2006 and ending on September 17, 2006.
     The Notes are redeemable by Infinity for cash at any time during the first year at 105% of par value, declining by 1% per year thereafter (101% during any extended maturity period), together with any accrued and unpaid interest. Under certain circumstances, Infinity has the option to repay the Notes with direct issuances of shares of registered common stock in lieu of cash at a conversion rate equal to 95% of the weighted average trading price of shares of the Company’s common stock on the trading day preceding the conversion (the “Conversion Option”). In addition, the Company may elect to settle accrued interest due under the Notes with direct issuances of shares of registered common stock in lieu of cash at a conversion rate equal to 95% of the weighted average trading price of shares of the Company’s common stock on the trading day preceding the conversion. In accordance with terms of the Senior Secured Notes Facility, in January and April 2006, the Company elected to settle approximately $861,000 and $1,170,000, respectively, of interest accrued at December 31, 2005 (due January 3, 2006) and March 31, 2006 (due April 3, 2006), respectively,

19


Table of Contents

through the issuance of 126,083 shares and 177,212 shares of common stock, respectively. In addition, in the first quarter of 2006, the Company converted $3 million principal amount of Notes, along with accrued interest of $37,000, into 382,062 shares of common stock. Subsequent to March 31, 2006 and through May 8, 2006, the Company had converted an additional $765,000 principal amount of Notes along with accrued interest of $7,400, into 110,908 shares of common stock.
     Under certain circumstances at quarterly intervals and over a three year period, Infinity has the option to sell additional Notes, along with additional Warrants, in amounts up to $15 million in any rolling twelve-month period, up to an additional $25 million. Any additional Notes would have an initial maturity of 42 months (54 months if the maturity of the January 2005 Notes is extended). The issuance of additional Notes is subject to Infinity’s satisfaction of various closing conditions. The ability to issue additional Notes or the requirement to prepay Notes prior to maturity will depend upon a maximum Notes balance calculated quarterly based generally upon a combination of financial performance of Consolidated and the SEC after-tax PV-10% value of the Company’s proved reserves. The maximum Notes balance at March 31, 2006 exceeded the Notes outstanding on that date.
Outlook for 2006
     Depending on the availability of capital resources, the availability of third party contractors for drilling and completion services, and satisfaction of regulatory activities, Infinity could incur capital expenditures of $34 million during the remainder of 2006. Approximate capital expenditures by operating entity would be $29 million by Infinity-Texas; $1 million by Infinity-Wyoming; $3 million by Consolidated and $1 million by Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. The Company could also make capital expenditures for acquisitions in excess of these amounts should appropriate opportunities arise.
     At quarterly intervals and over a three year period, commencing in the third quarter of 2006, Infinity has the option under the Senior Secured Notes Facility to sell additional notes, along with warrants, in amounts up to $15 million in any rolling twelve-month period. The ability to issue additional notes will depend upon a maximum notes balance calculated quarterly based generally upon a combination of financial performance of Consolidated and the SEC after-tax PV-10% value of our proved reserves. The maximum Notes balance or Free Cash Flow Amount as of March 31, 2006 was approximately $65 million.
     Depending on the market price for crude oil and natural gas during 2006, stabilized production levels from wells placed on line during 2006, and continued demand for and acceptance of our oilfield service operations in the geographic areas we serve, Infinity would expect to generate cash flow of between $12 million and $16.5 million from operating activities during the remainder of 2006.
     During 2005, Infinity received approximately $5 million in proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants. Management expects to receive proceeds from additional exercises during 2006, but is unable to predict the amount or timing of such proceeds.
     In summary, Infinity believes that it may have approximately $30 million available to it in the remainder of 2006 from cash at March 31, 2006 (approximately $6 million) external financing, which may include the sale of additional notes under the Senior Secured Notes Facility, cash from operating activities and proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants, to fund its planned capital expenditures of approximately $34 million during the remainder of 2006.
     Should Infinity identify acquisition opportunities, or if it wishes to accelerate the exploration and development of its oil and gas properties beyond that currently anticipated, or if cash flow from operating activities is not at levels anticipated, or if Infinity is unable to sell additional notes and warrants under the Senior Secured Notes Facility, Infinity may seek the forward sale of oil and gas production, partnerships or strategic alliances for the development of its undeveloped acreage, the public or private offering of common or preferred equity or subordinated debt, asset sales, or other joint interest or joint venture opportunities to fund any cash shortfalls, or Infinity would decrease the level of its planned capital expenditures.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
     Infinity’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005, described the accounting policies that we believe are critical to the reporting of our financial position and results of operations and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments. The most significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are:
    Remaining proved oil and gas reserves (reserve estimates),
 
    Timing of our future drilling activities,
 
    Accruals of operating costs, capital expenditures in progress, and revenue,
 
    Estimated useful life of equipment utilized in the oilfield service business,

    Estimated timing and cost related to asset retirement obligations,
 
    Estimated realizability of deferred tax assets,
 
    Estimated fair value of derivative instruments.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
Commodity Risk
     Infinity’s major market risk exposure is in the pricing applicable to its oil and gas production. Realized pricing is primarily driven by the prevailing price for crude oil and spot prices applicable to Infinity’s United States crude oil and natural gas production. Historically, prices received for gas production have been volatile and unpredictable. Pricing volatility is expected to continue. Excluding sales under a fixed price contract of $4.75 per Mcf, gas price realizations ranged from a low of $5.69 to a high of $7.48 per Mcf during the three months ended March 31, 2006. Oil price realizations ranged from a low of $56.44 per barrel to a high of $64.91 per barrel during that period.
     Infinity periodically enters into fixed-price physical contracts and commodity derivative contracts on a portion of its projected natural gas and crude oil production in accordance with its Energy Risk Management Policy. These activities are intended to support cash flow at certain levels by reducing the exposure to oil and gas price fluctuations.
     Sales under fixed price contracts are accounted for as normal sales agreements under the exemption in SFAS No. 133. For the three months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005, the effect of Infinity selling a portion of its gas production under a fixed price contract, compared to if it had sold the gas on the spot market, was a decrease in revenue of approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
     As of March 31, 2006 the Company had the following oil collar derivative arrangements outstanding:
                         
Term of Arrangements   Bbls per Day   Floor Price   Ceiling Price
January 1, 2006 – June 30, 2006
    50     $ 50.00     $ 64.40  
October 1, 2005 – December 31, 2006
    50     $ 52.50     $ 74.00  
July 1, 2006 – March 31, 2007
    50     $ 55.00     $ 77.00  
January 1, 2007 – June 30, 2007
    50     $ 57.50     $ 77.50  
     Subsequent to March 31, 2006, the Company entered into the following natural gas collar:
                         
Term of Arrangement   MMBtu per Day   Floor Price   Ceiling Price
May 1, 2006 – July 31, 2006
    1,000     $ 4.50     $ 8.00  
     The Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of January 13, 2005 by and among Infinity and the buyers of the Notes includes a covenant that at each date that is the end of a quarterly or annual period covered by a quarterly report on Form 10-Q or annual report on Form 10-K (a “Determination Date”), at least 20% of the Company’s estimate of its oil and gas production for the twelve-month period commencing immediately after such Determination Date shall be protected from price fluctuations using derivatives, fixed price agreements and/or volumetric production payments. It is the opinion of management that the Company was in compliance with this hedging requirement at May 8, 2006.
Interest Rate Risk
     Infinity’s exposure to changes in interest rates results from our $50 million in floating rate debt. The result of a 10% fluctuation in the 3 month LIBOR would impact our interest expense, before capitalization, by approximately $0.1 million per year.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
     The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) are communicated, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. At the end of the Company’s first quarter of 2006, as required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and

21

operation of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of that date. No changes in internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with its evaluation (as required by Rules 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act) occurred during the first quarter of 2006 that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
