NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:

Organization

Originally incorporated as Daybreak Uranium, Inc., (“Daybreak Uranium”) under the laws of the State of Washington on March 11, 1955, Daybreak Uranium was organized to explore for, acquire, and develop mineral properties in the Western United States.  During 2005, management of the Company decided to enter the oil and natural gas exploration and production industry.  On October 25, 2005, the Company shareholders approved a name change from Daybreak Mines, Inc. to Daybreak Oil and Gas, Inc. (referred to herein as “Daybreak” or the “Company”) to better reflect the business of the Company.

All of the Company’s oil and gas production is sold under contracts which are market-sensitive. Accordingly, the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and capital resources are highly dependent upon prevailing market prices of, and demand for, oil and natural gas.  These commodity prices are subject to wide fluctuations and market uncertainties due to a variety of factors that are beyond the control of the Company.  These factors include the level of global demand for petroleum products, foreign supply of oil and natural gas, the establishment of and compliance with production quotas by oil-exporting countries, the relative strength of the U.S. dollar, weather conditions, the price and availability of alternative fuels, and overall economic conditions, both foreign and domestic.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements and notes for the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q for quarterly reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”).  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included and such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  Operating results for the six months ended August 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending February 29, 2016.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2015.

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions.  These estimates and assumptions may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The accounting policies most affected by management’s estimates and assumptions are as follows:

·

The reliance on estimates of proved reserves to compute the provision for depreciation, depletion and amortization and to determine the amount of any impairment of proved properties;

·

The valuation of unproved acreage and proved oil and gas properties to determine the amount of any impairment of oil and natural gas properties;

·

Judgment regarding the productive status of in-progress exploratory wells to determine the amount of any provision for abandonment; and

·

Estimates regarding abandonment obligations.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period’s financial information to the current period’s presentation.  These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net loss or accumulated deficit.

NOTE 2 — GOING CONCERN:

Financial Condition

The Company’s financial statements for the six months ended August 31, 2015 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company has incurred net losses since entering the oil and natural gas exploration industry and as of August 31, 2015 has an accumulated deficit of $29,258,170 and a working capital deficit of $5,405,641 which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management Plans to Continue as a Going Concern

The Company continues to implement plans to enhance its ability to continue as a going concern.  Daybreak currently has a net revenue interest in 20 producing oil wells in its East Slopes Project located in Kern County, California (the “East Slopes Project”).  The revenue from these wells has created a steady and reliable source of revenue.  The Company’s average working interest in these wells is 36.6% and the average net revenue interest (“NRI”) is 28.4% for these same wells.

Additionally, the Company has become involved in a shallow oil development project in an existing natural gas field in Lawrence County, Kentucky, through its acquisition of an average 25% working interest in approximately 7,300 acres in two large contiguous blocks in the Twin Bottoms Field in Lawrence County, Kentucky.  Daybreak currently has 13 producing horizontal oil wells in the Twin Bottoms Field with some supplementary natural gas production.  The Company’s average working interest in these 13 horizontal oil wells is 22.4% and the average NRI is 19.6% in these same wells.

The Company anticipates revenues will continue to increase as it participates in the drilling of more wells in California and Kentucky.  Daybreak plans to continue its development drilling programs in both Kentucky and California at a rate that is compatible with its cash flow; funding opportunities and hydrocarbon prices.

The Company’s sources of funds in the past have included the debt or equity markets and, while the Company has experienced revenue growth that has resulted in positive cash flow from its oil and natural gas properties, it has not yet established consistent positive cash flow on a company-wide basis primarily due to lower oil prices.  It will be necessary for the Company to obtain additional financing from the private or public debt or equity markets in the future.  However, the Company cannot offer any assurance that it will be successful in executing the aforementioned plan to continue as a going concern.

Daybreak’s financial statements as of August 31, 2015 do not include any adjustments that might result from the inability to implement or execute Daybreak’s plans to improve our ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 — RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:

There are no new accounting pronouncements issued or effective that have had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 4 — CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK:

Substantially all of the Company’s trade accounts receivable result from crude oil and natural gas sales or joint interest billings to its working interest partners.  This concentration of customers and joint interest owners may impact the Company’s overall credit risk as these entities could be affected by similar changes in economic conditions including lower oil prices as well as other related factors.  Trade accounts receivable are generally not collateralized.  There were no allowances for doubtful accounts for the Company’s trade accounts receivable at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015, as all joint interest owners have a history of paying their obligations.

At the Company’s East Slopes project in California, there is only one buyer available for the purchase of all oil production.  At the Company’s Twin Bottoms Field project located in Lawrence County, Kentucky, there is only one buyer available for the purchase of its oil production and only one buyer available for the purchase of its natural gas production.  At August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 these three individual customers represented 100.0% of crude oil and natural gas revenue accounts receivable.  If these buyers are unable to resell their products or if they lose a significant sales contract then the Company may incur difficulties in selling its oil and natural gas production.

7

The Company’s accounts receivable from Kentucky and California oil and natural gas sales at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 are set forth in the table below.

Other receivables balances primarily include amounts advanced to certain minority working interest partners in Kentucky and monthly principal and interest receivable on the loan to App Energy, LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (“App Energy”). For additional information on the App Energy loan refer to the discussion in Note 8 – Note Receivable.

NOTE 5 — OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES:

Oil and gas property balances at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 are set forth in the table below.

NOTE 6 — PRODUCTION REVENUE RECEIVABLE:

Production revenue receivable balances of $95,000 in aggregate represent amounts due the Company from a portion of the sale price of a 25% working interest in East Slopes Project in Kern County, California that was acquired through the default of certain original working interest partners in the project.  Production revenue receivable balances at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 are set forth in the table below:

NOTE 7 — DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS:

Deferred financing costs at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 relate to the original and the amended credit facility with Maximilian Resources LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and successor by assignment to Maximilian Investors LLC (either party, as appropriate, is referred to in these notes to the financial statements as “Maximilian”), are set forth in the table below:

The Company recognized amortization expense of $212,564 for the six months ended August 31, 2015.

8

NOTE 8 — NOTE RECEIVABLE:

At August 31, 2015, the Company had advanced approximately $8.3 million to App Energy through its credit facility.  Note receivable balances at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 are set forth in the table below:

NOTE 9 — ACCOUNTS PAYABLE:

On March 1, 2009, the Company became the operator for its East Slopes Project.  Additionally, the Company at that time assumed certain original partners’ default liability of approximately $1.5 million representing a 25% working interest in the drilling and completion costs associated with the East Slopes Project four earning well program.  The Company subsequently sold the same 25% working interest on June 11, 2009.  Of the $1.5 million default, $246,349 remains unpaid and is included in the August 31, 2015 accounts payable balance.

NOTE 10 — ACCOUNTS PAYABLE- RELATED PARTIES:

The August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 accounts payable – related parties balances were comprised primarily of salaries of the Company’s Executive Officers and certain employees; directors’ fees; expense reimbursements; and interest to the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer on the 12% Subordinated Notes further described in Note 11 – Short-Term and Long-Term Borrowings below.  Payment of these items has been deferred until the Company’s cash flow situation improves.

NOTE 11 — SHORT-TERM AND LONG-TERM BORROWINGS:

Note Payable – Related Party

As of August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer had loaned the Company $250,100 in aggregate that was used for a variety of corporate purposes including an escrow requirement on a loan commitment; extension fees on third party loans; and a reduction of principal on the Company’s credit line with UBS Bank.  These loans are non-interest bearing loans and repayment will be made upon a mutually agreeable date in the future.

Line of Credit

The Company has an existing $890,000 line of credit for working capital purposes with UBS Bank USA (“UBS”), established pursuant to a Credit Line Agreement dated October 24, 2011 that is secured by the personal guarantee of our President and Chief Executive Officer.  Interest is payable monthly at a stated reference rate of 0.249% + 337.5 basis points and totaled $15,468 for the six months ended August 31, 2015.  The reference rate is based on the 30 day LIBOR (“London Interbank Offered Rate”) and is subject to change from UBS.  At August 31, 2015 the Line of credit had an outstanding balance of $855,333.

Long-term Borrowings

12% Subordinated Notes

The Company’s 12% Subordinated Notes (“the Notes”) issued pursuant to a March 2010 private placement (of which $250,000 was from a related party) accrue interest at 12% per annum, payable semi-annually on January 29th and July 29th.  On January 29, 2015, the Company and 12 of the 13 note holders agreed to extend the maturity date of the Notes from January 29, 2015 for an additional two years.  The note principal is payable in full at the amended maturity date of the Notes, which is January 29, 2017.  The outstanding balance of the 12% Notes was $565,000 at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015.  Should the Board of Directors, on the amended maturity date, decide that the payment of the principal and any unpaid interest would impair the financial condition or operations of the Company, the Company may then elect a mandatory conversion of the unpaid principal and interest into the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate equal to 75% of the average closing price of the Company’s common stock over the 20 consecutive trading days preceding December 31, 2016.

Maximilian Credit Facility

On October 31, 2012, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Maximilian, which provided for a revolving credit facility of up to $20 million, maturing on October 31, 2016, with a minimum commitment of $2.5 million.  The loan had annual interest of 18% and a monthly commitment fee of 0.5%.  The Company also granted Maximilian a 10% working interest in its share of the oil and gas leases in Kern County, California.  The relative fair value of this 10% working interest amounting to $515,638 was recognized as a discount to debt and is being amortized over the original term of the loan.  Amortization expense was $68,196 for the six months ended August 31, 2015.  Unamortized debt discount was $135,869 at August 31, 2015.

In 2012, the Company also issued 2,435,517 warrants to third parties who assisted in the closing of the loan.  The warrants have an exercise price of $0.044; contain a cashless exercise provision; have piggyback registration rights; and are exercisable for a period of five years expiring on October 31, 2017.  The fair value of the warrants, as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model, was $98,084 and included the following assumptions: a risk free interest rate of 0.72%; stock price of $0.04, volatility of 153.44%; and a dividend yield of 0.0%.  The fair value of the warrants was recognized as a financing cost and is being amortized as a part of deferred financing cost over the term of the loan.  As of August 31, 2015, 316,617 of these warrants remain unexercised and outstanding.

Maximilian Credit Facility - Amended and Restated Loan Agreement

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of a working interest from App Energy in the Twin Bottoms Field in Lawrence County, Kentucky, the Company amended its loan agreement with Maximilian on August 28, 2013.  The amended loan agreement provided for an increase in the revolving credit facility from $20 million to $90 million and a reduction in the annual interest rate from 18% to 12%.  The monthly commitment fee of 0.5% per month on the outstanding principal balance remained unchanged.  Advances under the amended loan agreement will mature on August 28, 2017.  The obligations under the amended loan agreement continue to be secured by a perfected first priority security interest in substantially all of the personal property of the Company, and a mortgage on the Company’s leases in Kern County, California.  The amended loan agreement also provided for the revolving credit facility to be divided into two borrowing sublimits.  The first borrowing sublimit is $50 million and is for borrowing by the Company, primarily for its ongoing oil and gas exploration and development activities.  The second borrowing sublimit, of $40 million, is for loans to be extended by the Company, as lender, to App Energy, as borrower pursuant to a Loan and Security Agreement entered into between the Company and App Energy on August 28, 2013 (See Note 8 – Note Receivable).

The amended loan agreement contains customary covenants for loans of such type, including among other things, covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to make capital expenditures, incur indebtedness, incur liens and dispose of property.  The amended loan agreement also contains various events of default, including failure to pay principal and interest when due, breach of covenants, materially incorrect representations and bankruptcy or insolvency.  If an event of default occurs, all of the Company’s obligations under the amended loan agreement could be accelerated by Maximilian, causing all loans outstanding (including accrued interest and fees payable thereunder) to be declared immediately due and payable.

As consideration for Maximilian facilitating the Company’s transactions with App Energy and entering into the amended loan agreement, the Company (a) issued to Maximilian approximately 6.1 million common shares, representing 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock on a fully-diluted basis at the time of grant, and (b) issued approximately 6.1 million warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock representing the right to purchase up to an additional 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock on a fully-diluted basis, calculated as of the date of grant.  The warrants have an exercise price of $0.10; contain a cash exercise provision and are exercisable for a period of three years expiring on August 28, 2016; and contain an exercise blocker provision that prevents any exercise of the warrants if such exercise and related issuance of common stock would increase the Maximilian holdings of the Company’s common stock to more than 9.99% of the Company’s currently issued and outstanding shares at the time of the exercise.  The Company also granted to Maximilian a 50% net profits interest in the Company’s approximate 25% working interest, after the Company recovers it’s investment in the Kentucky acreage, pursuant to an Assignment of Net Profits Interest entered into as of August 28, 2013 by and between the Company and Maximilian.

On May 28, 2014 at Maximilian’s request, the Company finalized a share-for-warrant exchange agreement in which Maximilian returned to the Company 427,729 common shares and was in turn issued the same number of warrants containing the same provisions as the originally issued warrants.  This share-for-warrant exchange occurred so that Maximilian would hold no more than 9.99% of the Company’s common shares, issued and outstanding.  The Company determined that the share-for-warrant exchange did not result in any incremental fair value.

10

On August 21, 2014, the Company entered into a First Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement and Share Repurchase Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Maximilian under its Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of August 28, 2013.  The Amendment secured for the Company an additional advance of $2,200,000 under its credit facility with Maximilian since the advances made by Maximilian had already exceeded its minimum funding commitment.  Additionally, Maximilian agreed to temporarily reduce the required monthly payment made by the Company until it has paid $1,000,000 less than principal payments required by the previous agreement.  Furthermore, Maximilian agreed to reduce the regular interest rate applicable to the loan from 12% per annum to 9% per annum and the default interest rate by 3%.

The additional advance, the reduction in the required monthly payment and the reduction in the interest rate were facilitated through the Company’s acquisition of 5,694,823 shares of its common stock held by Maximilian.  The repurchased shares were cancelled and restored to the status of authorized, but unissued stock.  The Company paid for the share repurchase transaction through an advance of $1,708,447 under the existing loan agreement with Maximilian.

On May 20, 2015, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the”2^nd Amendment”) with Maximilian under its Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of August 28, 2013.  The 2^nd Amendment modified the calculation of the required monthly payment for a three-month period ending June 30, 2015.  As consideration for entering into the loan modification, the Company agreed to modify the exercise price of the warrants Maximilian currently holds from $0.10 to $0.04.  No other terms of the warrant agreement were changed.  The Company determined that the modification of the warrant exercise price did not result in any incremental fair value.

With the assistance of Maximilian, the Company is currently working with an investment banking firm to assist in securing refinancing of its debt with Maximilian, since the long-term commitment needed to develop the Kentucky and California projects no longer fits the Maximilian business model.  Maximilian is continuing to work with the Company in modifying the credit facility terms during this period of lower hydrocarbon prices.

Current debt balances at August 31, 2015, and February 28, 2015 are set forth in the table below:

Non-current debt balances at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 are set forth in the table below:

NOTE 12 — STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT:

Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

The Company has designated 2,400,000 shares of the 10,000,000 preferred shares as Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”), with a $0.001 par value.  At August 31, 2015, there were 724,565 shares issued and outstanding, that had not been converted into our common stock.  As of August 31, 2015, there are 43 accredited investors who have converted 675,200 Series A Preferred shares into 2,025,600 shares of Daybreak common stock.  The conversions of Series A Preferred that have occurred since the Series A Preferred was first issued in July 2006 is set forth in the table below.

Holders of Series A Preferred shall be paid dividends, in the amount of 6% of the original purchase price per annum. Dividends are cumulative from the date of the final closing of the private placement, whether or not in any dividend period or periods we have assets legally available for the payment of such dividends.  As of August 31, 2015, no dividends have been paid.  Dividends earned since issuance for each fiscal year and the six months ended August 31, 2015 are set forth in the table below:

Common Stock

The Company is authorized to issue up to 200,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock of which 51,487,373 shares were issued and outstanding as of August 31, 2015.  In comparison, at February 28, 2015, a total of 51,457,373 shares were issued and outstanding.  The increase of 30,000 shares was attributable as shown below:

12

NOTE 13 — WARRANTS:

Warrants outstanding and exercisable as of August 31, 2015 are set forth in the table below:

There were 150,000 warrants issued in 2010 for services that expired during the six months ended August 31, 2015.  During the six months ended August 31, 2015 there were no warrants issued or exercised.  The remaining outstanding warrants as of August 31, 2015, have a weighted average exercise price of $0.06, a weighted average remaining life of 1.17 years, and an intrinsic value of -$0-.

NOTE 14 — INCOME TAXES:

Reconciliation between actual tax expense (benefit) and income taxes computed by applying the U.S. federal income tax rate and state income tax rates to income from continuing operations before income taxes is set forth in the table below:

Tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred liabilities are set forth in the table below:

At August 31, 2015, Daybreak had estimated net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards for federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $23,987,913 which will begin to expire, if unused, beginning in 2024.  The valuation allowance increased $362,322 for the six months ended August 31, 2015 and increased by $150,251 for the year ended February 28, 2015. Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code places annual limitations on the Company’s NOL carryforward.

The above estimates are based on management’s decisions concerning elections which could change the relationship between net income and taxable income.  Management decisions are made annually and could cause estimates to vary significantly.

NOTE 15 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

Various lawsuits, claims and other contingencies arise in the ordinary course of the Company’s business activities.  While the ultimate outcome of any future contingency is not determinable at this time, management believes that any liability or loss resulting therefrom will not materially affect the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

13

The Company, as an owner or lessee and operator of oil and gas properties, is subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to discharge of materials into, and protection of, the environment.  These laws and regulations may, among other things, impose liability on the lessee under an oil and gas lease for the cost of pollution clean-up resulting from operations and subject the lessee to liability for pollution damages.  In some instances, the Company may be directed to suspend or cease operations in the affected area.  The Company maintains insurance coverage that is customary in the industry, although the Company is not fully insured against all environmental risks.

The Company is not aware of any environmental claims existing as of August 31, 2015.  There can be no assurance, however, that current regulatory requirements will not change or that past non-compliance with environmental issues will not be discovered on the Company’s oil and gas properties.

NOTE 16 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS:

On October 14, 2015, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement and Second Warrant Amendment with Maximilian, which amended the Company’s loan agreement with Maximilian (the “Maximilian Amendment”).  Pursuant to the Maximilian Amendment, Maximilian agreed to a reduction in the Company’s monthly payments under the loan agreement to $50,000 per month for a period of six months ending on February 29, 2016.  The reduction in monthly payments allows for additional funds to be used by the Company in drilling and completing additional wells in Kentucky.  As consideration for the reduction in the monthly payment amount, the Company agreed that twenty percent of the amount by which the monthly payment was reduced would be added to the loan balance, and the portion of the monthly payment savings that constitutes savings in interest or commitment fees would be treated as an additional advance of principal under the loan agreement (the “Deemed Advances”).  The Company also agreed to grant to Maximilian an overriding royalty interest in four wells it drills of 1.5% of its working interest in such wells, subject to reduction connected to the Company’s ongoing efforts to refinance its loan agreement.  As part of the Maximilian Amendment, the Company also agreed to extend the expiration date of the warrants held by Maximilian to purchase up to 6,550,281 shares of common stock of the Company to August 28, 2018.

In connection with entering into the Maximilian Amendment, the Company concurrently entered into a Second Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement with App Energy (the “App Amendment”), which amended the Company’s loan agreement with App Energy in which the Company, as lender, lends to App Energy, as borrower, a portion of the advances it receives pursuant to its loan agreement with Maximilian.  The App Amendment provides for a reduction in interest rate and a reduction in monthly payments to be made by App Energy to the Company for the same payment cycles as the reduced payment to be made by the Company under the Maximilian Amendment.  The reduction in monthly payments by App Energy will allow App Energy to fund its share of drilling and completing additional wells in Kentucky with the Company.  As consideration for the reduction in the monthly payment amount, App Energy agreed that a percentage of the Deemed Advances will be treated as additional advances under the App Energy loan agreement, and that it would fund a portion of the Company’s drilling and development expenses with respect to two wells, subject to a partial refund connected to the Company’s ongoing efforts to refinance its loan agreement.  App Energy also agreed to grant to Maximilian an overriding royalty interest on the same terms as the overriding royalty interest agreed to by the Company.  Finally, App Energy granted to the Company a time-limited option to purchase additional working interest in its Kentucky operations connected to the Company’s ongoing efforts to refinance its loan agreement.

Introduction and Overview

We are an independent oil and natural gas exploration, development and production company.  Our basic business model is to increase shareholder value by finding and developing oil and natural gas reserves through exploration and development activities, and selling the production from those reserves at a profit.  To be successful, we must, over time, be able to find oil and natural gas reserves and then sell the resulting production at a price that is sufficient to cover our finding costs, operating expenses, administrative costs and interest expense, plus offer us a return on our capital investment.  A secondary means of generating returns can include the sale of either producing or non-producing lease properties.

Our longer-term success depends on, among many other factors, the acquisition and drilling of commercial grade oil and natural gas properties and on the prevailing sales prices for oil and natural gas along with associated operating expenses.  The volatile nature of the energy markets makes it difficult to estimate future prices of oil and natural gas; however, any prolonged period of depressed prices, such as we are now experiencing, would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Our operations are focused on identifying and evaluating prospective oil and natural gas properties and funding projects that we believe have the potential to produce oil or natural gas in commercial quantities.  We conduct all of our drilling, exploration and production activities in the United States, and all of our revenues are derived from sales to customers within the United States.  Currently, we are in the process of developing two multi-well oilfield projects; one in Lawrence County, Kentucky and the other in Kern County, California.

In the current fiscal year, we will continue to seek additional financing for our planned exploration and development activities in both Kentucky and California.  The Company has engaged an investment banking firm to assist in securing refinancing of its debt under more favorable terms and implement its development plans in California and Kentucky.  We plan to obtain financing through various methods, including issuing debt securities, equity securities, or bank debt, or combinations of these instruments, which could result in dilution to existing security holders and increased debt and leverage.  No assurance can be given that we will be able to obtain funding under any loan commitments or any additional financing on favorable terms, if at all.  Sales of interests in our assets may be another source of cash flow.

Our management cannot provide any assurances that Daybreak will ever operate profitably.  We have not been able to generate sustained positive earnings on a Company-wide basis.  As a small company, we are more susceptible to the numerous business, investment and industry risks that have been described in Item 1A. Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2015 and in Part III, Item 1A. Risk Factors of this 10-Q Report.  Throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, oil is shown in barrels (“Bbls”); natural gas is shown in thousands of cubic feet (“Mcf”) unless otherwise specified, and hydrocarbon totals are expressed in barrels of oil equivalent (“BOE”).

Below is summary of our oil and natural gas projects in Kentucky and California.

Lawrence County, Kentucky (Twin Bottoms Field)

The Twin Bottoms Field, comprising approximately 7,300 acres in two large contiguous blocks, is located in the Appalachian Basin of eastern Kentucky.  Log data from existing vertical gas wells in the field indicate the existence of proved oil reserves in the Berea sandstone, located at approximately 2,000 feet.  The lateral leg of each well is between 2,000 feet and 4,500 feet in length.  We have an approximate 25% working interest and an approximate net revenue interest (“NRI”) of 21.9% in all horizontal oil wells in this project.  The oil produced from our acreage in Kentucky is light crude oil measuring between 42° and 44° API gravity.  We are not the Operator of the Twin Bottoms Field project; instead we rely on the experience of the current Operator and its knowledge of this Field.  

At August 31, 2015, we had 13 producing horizontal oil wells in the Twin Bottoms Field.  Our first well, the Grove H-1 was put on production in October 2013.  During the year ended February 28, 2014, three additional oil wells, the Grove #H-3, Grove #H-4 and Grove #H-5, were put on production.  Nine additional horizontal oil wells, the Dillon #H-6, Grove #H-7, Grove #H-8, Grove #H-9, Grove #H-10, Jackson #H-20, Lyons #H-23, Lyons #H-24 and the Dillon #H-22, were put on production during the year ended February 28, 2015.  Our average working interest and NRI in these 13 producing horizontal oil wells is 22.4% and 19.6%, respectively.

In August 2015, we drilled the vertical leg portion of the Murray #H-34 well.  The well was logged and data was collected for use in the drilling of the App Energy #H-33 well.  The App Energy #H-33 well was drilled to a measured depth of 5,251 feet and encountered 3,913 feet of oil pay in the Berea Sandstone.  The App Energy #H-33 well will be hydraulically fractured in late October to early November 2015.  The horizontal portion of the Murray #H-34 well will be drilled at a later date.

Kentucky Drilling Plans

Selected wells may be drilled from time to time to maintain production and leases, however; implementation of our full development plan will not begin until there is a sustained improvement in crude oil prices and additional financing is put in place.  We plan to spend approximately $250,000 in capital investments in the Twin Bottoms Field project area during the remainder of the 2015-2016 fiscal year.

Kern County, California (East Slopes Project)

The East Slopes Project is located in the southeastern part of the San Joaquin Basin near Bakersfield, California.  Drilling targets are porous and permeable sandstone reservoirs which exist at depths of 1,200 feet to 4,500 feet.  Since January 2009, we have participated in the drilling of 25 wells in this project.  We have been the Operator at the East Slopes Project since March 2009.

Our 20 oil wells in the East Slopes Project produce from five reservoirs at our Sunday, Bear, Black, Ball and Dyer Creek locations.  The Sunday property has six producing wells, while the Bear property has nine producing wells.  The Black property is the smallest of all currently producing reservoirs, and currently has two producing wells at this property.  The Ball property also has two producing wells while the Dyer Creek property has one producing well.  Our average working interest and NRI in these 20 producing oil wells is 36.6% and 28.5%, respectively.  There are several other similar prospects on trend with the Bear, Black and Dyer Creek reservoirs exhibiting the same seismic characteristics.  Some of these prospects, if successful, would utilize the Company’s existing production facilities.  In addition to the current field development, there are several other exploratory prospects that have been identified from the seismic data, which we plan to drill in the future.

Sunday Central Processing and Storage Facility

The oil produced from our acreage in California is considered heavy oil.  The oil ranges from 14° to 16° API (American Petroleum Institute) gravity.  All of the oil from our five producing properties is processed, stored and sold from the Sunday central processing and storage facility.  The oil must be heated to separate and remove water to prepare it to be sold.  We constructed these facilities during the summer and fall of 2009 and at the same time established electrical service for our field by constructing three miles of power lines.  In 2013, we completed an upgrade to this facility including the addition of a second oil storage tank to handle the additional oil production from the wells drilled in 2013.

By utilizing the Sunday centralized production facility our average operating costs have been reduced from over $40 per barrel in 2009 to a monthly average of approximately $12 per barrel of oil for the six months ended August 31, 2015.  With this centralized facility and having permanent electrical power available, we are ensuring that our operating expenses are kept to a minimum.

Exploration Properties

Bull Run Prospect

This prospect is located in the southern portion of our acreage position.  The drilling targets are the Etchegoin and Santa Margarita sands located between 800 and 1,200 feet deep.  Utilizing the data received from a previously drilled well that was not commercially successful, we expect to drill another exploratory well on this prospect during 2015.  Future Bull Run wells will require a pilot steam flood and additional production facilities.  We estimate that the Bull Run prospect is 70 acres in size.  We have a 37.5% working interest in this prospect.

Sherman Prospect

This prospect is also located in the southern portion of our acreage position.  The drilling targets are the Olcese and Etchegoin sands between 1,000 and 2,000 feet deep.  We estimate that the Sherman Prospect is 100 acres in size.  We have a 37.5% working interest in this prospect.

Tobias Prospect

This prospect is also located in the central portion of our acreage position.  The drilling targets are the Vedder and Eocene sands between 2,000 and 4,500 feet deep.  We estimate that the Tobias prospect is 60 acres in size.  We have a 37.5% working interest in this prospect.

17

California Drilling Plans

Future drilling plans include a combination of both exploratory drilling and development well drilling.  Planned drilling activity and implementation of our full development plan will not begin until there is a sustained improvement in crude oil prices and additional financing is put in place.  We do not plan to make any capital investments in the East Slopes Project during the rest of the 2015-2016 fiscal year.

Encumbrances

The Company’s debt obligations, pursuant to a loan agreement entered into by and between Maximilian Resources LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as lender, and the Company are secured by a perfected first priority security interest in substantially all of the personal property of the Company, and a mortgage on our leases in Kern County, California encompassing the Sunday, Bear, Black, Ball and Dyer Creek properties.  For further information on the loan agreement refer to the discussion under the caption “Non-current Borrowings” in this MD&A.

Results of Operations – Six Months Ended August 31, 2015 compared to the Six Months Ended August 31, 2014

Hydrocarbon Prices

The price we receive for oil sales in both Kentucky and California is based on prices quoted on the New York Mercantile Exchange (“NYMEX”) for spot West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) Cushing, Oklahoma delivery contracts, less deductions that vary by grade of crude oil sold and transportation costs.  The price we receive for natural gas sales in Kentucky per Mcf is based on the Columbia Gas Transmission Corp. Appalachia Index (“TCO Appalachia”) whereby we will receive 76% of the TCO Appalachia price per dekatherm (DTH) less $0.25 compression cost for each Mcf of gas delivered.  We do not have any natural gas revenues in California.

Since June 2014, there has been a significant decline in the WTI price of crude oil and subsequently in the realized price we receive from oil sales.  This decline in the price of crude oil has had a substantial negative impact on our cash flow from both our Kentucky and California properties as shown in the table below.

Kentucky Oil Prices

For the six months ended August 31, 2015, our average realized oil sale price was $51.36 in comparison to the average WTI price of $52.57 representing a discount of $1.21 per barrel or 2.3% lower than the average WTI price.  In comparison, for the six months ended August 31, 2014, the average WTI price was $101.83 and our average realized sale price was $99.90 representing a discount of $1.93 per barrel or 1.9% lower than the average WTI price.

Kentucky Natural Gas Prices

For the six months ended August 31, 2015, our average realized natural gas sale price was $1.75 per Mcf (thousand cubic feet) in comparison to the average Henry Hub price of $2.78 per million BTU representing a discount of $1.03 per Mcf or 37.0% lower than the average Henry Hub price.  In comparison, for the six months ended August 31, 2014, the average realized sale price was $2.74 per Mcf in comparison to the average Henry Hub price of $4.45 per million BTU representing a discount of $1.71 or 38.3% lower than the average Henry Hub price.

California Oil Prices

For the six months ended August 31, 2015, the average WTI price was $52.57 and our average realized oil sale price was $44.95, representing a discount of $7.62 per barrel or 14.5% lower than the average WTI price.  In comparison, for the six months ended August 31, 2014, the average WTI prices was $101.83 and our average realized sale price was $95.46 representing a discount of $6.37 per barrel or 6.3% lower than the average WTI price.  Historically, the sale price we receive for California heavy oil has been less than the quoted WTI price because of the lower API gravity of our California oil in comparison to WTI oil API gravity.

18

Combined Revenue and Production

Our revenues are derived entirely from the sale of our share of oil production in Kentucky and California and natural gas sales in Kentucky. Oil and natural gas revenues for the six months ended August 31, 2015 in aggregate decreased $1,043,607 or 56.3%, to $811,118 in comparison to revenues of $1,854,725 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  Oil and natural gas sales volume decreased 1,248 BOE (barrels of oil equivalent) or 6.3% to 18,637 (BOE) in comparison to 19,885 (BOE) for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  The decrease in volume was due to the natural decline in oil producing reservoir pressure.  Our average realized sale price on a BOE basis for the six months ended August 31, 2015 was $43.52 in comparison to $93.32 for the six months ended August 31, 2014, representing a decline of $49.80 or 53.4% per barrel.

Kentucky Oil Revenue and Production

Production in Kentucky is from horizontal oil wells in consolidated shale sands that are characterized by large initial production volumes that decline quite rapidly to a much lower and more stable long-term production volume.  Fluctuations in revenue are closely linked to both production volumes and crude oil prices.  Our first oil sales in Kentucky occurred in October 2013.  Oil revenue in Kentucky for the six months ended August 31, 2015 decreased $557,586 or 54.6% to $464,438 in comparison to revenue of $1,022,024 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  The average realized sale price of a barrel of oil for the six months ended August 31, 2015 was $51.36 in comparison to $99.90 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  The decrease of $48.54 or 48.62% in the average sale price of a barrel of oil was responsible for 89.1% of the decline in Kentucky oil revenue for the six months ended August 31, 2015.

Our net sales volume for the six months ended August 31, 2015 was 9,043 barrels of oil in comparison to 10,230 barrels sold for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  This decrease in oil sales volume of 1,187 barrels or 11.6% was responsible for 10.9% of the decline in Kentucky oil revenue for the six months ended August 31, 2015.

The API gravity of our produced oil in Kentucky ranges between 42° API and 44° API.  Production for the six months ended August 31, 2015 was from 13 wells resulting in 2,188 well days of production in comparison to 1,176 well days for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  We had production from nine producing horizontal oil wells for the six months ended August 31, 2014.

Kentucky Natural Gas Revenue and Production

Natural gas production is a by-product from our horizontal oil wells and the volume varies on a well-to-well basis.   Our first natural gas sales in Kentucky also occurred in October 2013.  Natural gas revenue for the six months ended August 31, 2015 increased $7,982 to $14,733 in comparison to revenue of $6,751 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  The average realized sale price per Mcf for the six months ended August 31, 2015 was $1.75 in comparison to $2.87 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  Our net sales volume for the six months ended August 31, 2015 was 14,733 Mcf or 2,456 BOE in comparison to 6,751 Mcf or 1,125 BOE for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  The increase of 7,982 MCF or 1,330 BOE representing a 118.2% increase was due to infrastructure improvements that had previously inhibited natural gas production from existing wells.

California Revenue and Production

Production in California is from vertical oil wells that historically produce at relatively stable levels over a long period of time.  Fluctuations in revenue are generally more dependent on the price of crude oil and the timing of oil sales rather than oil production volumes.  Oil revenue in California for the six months ended August 31, 2015 decreased $493,297 or 60.6% to $320,876 in comparison to revenue of $814,172 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  The average realized sale price of a barrel of oil for the six months ended August 31, 2015 was $44.95 in comparison to $95.46 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  The decrease of $50.51 or 52.9% in the average realized sale price of a barrel of oil accounted for 87.3% of the decrease in California oil revenue for the six months ended August 31, 2015.

Our net sales volume for the six months ended August 31, 2015 was 7,138 barrels of oil in comparison to 8,529 barrels sold for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  This decrease in oil sales volume of 1,391 barrels or 16.3% accounted for 12.7% of the decrease in California oil revenue for the six months ended August 31, 2015.  The decrease in volume was due to natural decline in the oil producing reservoirs.

The gravity of our produced oil in California ranges between 14° API and 16° API.  Production for the six months ended August 31, 2015 was from 20 wells resulting in 3,662 well days of production in comparison to 3,666 of production from 20 wells for the six months ended August 31, 2014.

Oil and natural gas revenues for the six months ended August 31, 2015 and 2014 are set forth in the table below:

Operating Expenses.  Total operating expenses for the six months ended August 31, 2015 decreased by $131,807 or 12.1% to $957,905 in comparison to $1,089,712 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.

Operating expenses for the six months ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 are set forth in the table below:

Production expenses include expenses associated with the production of oil and natural gas.  These expenses include pumper salaries, electricity, road maintenance, control of well insurance, property taxes and well workover expenses; and, relate directly to the number of wells that are in production.  For the six months ended August 31, 2015, these expenses decreased by $19,879 or 12.0% to $145,606 in comparison to $165,485 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  For the six months ended August 31, 2015 we had 20 wells on production in California and 13 wells on production in Kentucky in comparison to 20 wells in California and nine wells in Kentucky for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  Production expenses represented 15.2% of total operating expenses.

Production expenses in Kentucky and California for the six months ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 are set forth in the table below:

Production expenses on a BOE basis in Kentucky and California for the six months ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 are set forth in the table below:

Exploration and drilling expenses include geological and geophysical (“G&G”) expenses as well as leasehold maintenance and dry hole expenses.  These expenses increased $7,257 or 56.6% to $20,067 for the six months ended August 31, 2015 in comparison to $12,810 the six months ended August 31, 2014 primarily due to additional G&G work in Kentucky.  Exploration and drilling expenses represented 2.1% of total operating expenses.

20

DD&A expenses relate to equipment, proven reserves and property costs, along with impairment and is another component of operating expenses.  For the six months ended August 31, 2015, DD&A expenses decreased $33,764 or 11.6% to $257,729 in comparison to $291,493 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  The decrease in DD&A is directly related to the level of our hydrocarbon production in both Kentucky and California.  On a BOE basis, DD&A and impairment represented $13.83 and $14.66 per barrel for the six months ended August 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  DD&A expenses represented 26.9% of total operating expenses.

G&A expenses include the salaries of six full-time employees, including management.  Other items included in our G&A expenses are legal and accounting expenses, director fees, stock compensation, investor relations fees, travel expenses, insurance, Sarbanes-Oxley (“SOX”) compliance expenses and other administrative expenses necessary for an operator of oil and gas properties as well as for running a public company.  For the six months ended August 31, 2015, G&A expenses decreased $85,421 or 13.8% to $534,503 in comparison to $619,924 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  Legal, accounting and reserve reporting expenses decreased by $49,400 for the six months ended August 31, 2015.  Travel expenses decreased $10,400 due to reduced drilling activity during the six months ended August 31, 2015 in comparison to the six months ended August 31, 2014.  We received, as Operator in California, administrative overhead reimbursement of $26,644 during the six months ended August 31, 2015 for the East Slopes Project which was used to directly offset certain employee salaries.  We are continuing a program of reducing all of our G&A costs wherever possible.  G&A expenses represented 55.8% of total operating expenses.

Interest income for the six months ended August 31, 2015 decreased $30,242 or 6.6% to $424,604 in comparison to $454,846 for the six months ended August 31, 2014 due to reduced interest rates on the Note receivable from App Energy. For further discussion on the App Energy Note refer to the discussion of the App Loan Agreement under Capital Resources and Liquidity – Cash Flow Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities, Non-current Debt (Long-term Borrowings) in this MD&A.

Interest expense for the six months ended August 31, 2015 decreased $32,533 or 2.4% to $1,330,471 in comparison to $1,363,004 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  The decrease in interest expense is directly related to the modified loan payment terms on our credit facility with Maximilian.  The credit facility activity is discussed further in the discussion of the Maximilian Credit Facility – Amended and Restated Loan Agreement in the  MD&A section of this 10-Q report under Capital Resources and Liquidity – Cash Flow Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities, Non-current Debt (Long-term Borrowings) in this MD&A.

California Revenue and Production

Oil revenue in California for the three months ended August 31, 2015 decreased $221,793 or 57.8% to $162,255 in comparison to revenue of $384,048 for the three months ended August 31, 2014.  The average realized sale price of a barrel of oil for the three months ended August 31, 2015 was $44.55 in comparison to $94.45 for the three months ended August 31, 2014.  The decrease of $49.90 or 52.8% in the average realized sale price of a barrel of oil accounted for 91.5% of the decrease in California oil revenue for the three months ended August 31, 2015.

Our net sales volume for the three months ended August 31, 2015 was 3,642 barrels of oil in comparison to 4,066 barrels sold for the three months ended August 31, 2014.  This decrease in oil sales volume of 424 barrels or 10.4% accounted for 8.5% of the decrease in revenue for the three months ended August 31, 2015.  Production for the three months ended August 31, 2015 was from 20 wells resulting in 1,837 well days of production in comparison to 1,831 of production from 20 wells for the three months ended August 31, 2014.

Oil and natural gas revenues for the three months ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 are set forth in the table below:

Operating Expenses.  Total operating expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2015 decreased by $76,458 or 14.6% to $446,145 in comparison to $522,603 for the three months ended August 31, 2014.

Operating expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 are set forth in the table below:

For the three months ended August 31, 2015, production expenses decreased by $9,954 or 12.5% to $70,001 in comparison to $79,955 for the three months ended August 31, 2014.  This decrease in production expenses is due to lower production expenses in Kentucky for the three months ended August 31, 2015.  For the three months ended August 31, 2014 we had 20 wells on production in California and 13 wells on production in Kentucky in comparison to 20 wells in California and nine wells in Kentucky for the three months ended August 31, 2014.  Production expenses represented 15.7% of total operating expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2015.

Production expenses in Kentucky and California for the three months ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 are set forth in the table below:

Production expenses on a BOE basis in Kentucky and California for the three months ended August 31, 2015 and August 31, 2014 are set forth in the table below:

For the three months ended August 31, 2015, exploration and drilling expenses increased $2,373 or 39.4% to $8,400 in comparison to $6,027 for the three months ended August 31, 2014.  Exploration and drilling expenses represented 1.9% of total operating expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2015.

For the three months ended August 31, 2015, DD&A expenses decreased $52,627 or 30.7% to $118,889 in comparison to $171,516 for the three months ended August 31, 2014.  The decrease in DD&A is directly related to lower hydrocarbon production volumes in both Kentucky and California.  On a BOE basis, DD&A and impairment represented $19.76 and $15.26 per barrel for the three months ended August 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  DD&A expenses represented 26.6% of total operating expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2015.

For the three months ended August 31, 2015, G&A expenses decreased $16,250 or 6.1% to $248,855 in comparison to $265,105 for the three months ended August 31, 2014.  Legal, accounting and reserve reporting expenses decreased by $15,300 for the three months ended August 31, 2015.  We received, as Operator in California, administrative overhead reimbursement of $13,322 during the three months ended August 31, 2015 for the East Slopes Project which was used to directly offset certain employee salaries.  We are continuing a program of reducing all of our G&A costs wherever possible.  G&A expenses represented 55.8% of total operating expenses for the three months ended August 31, 2015.

23

Interest income for the three months ended August 31, 2015 decreased $88,157 or 30.4% to $201,851 in comparison to $290,008 for the three months ended August 31, 2014 due to reduced interest rates on the Note receivable from App Energy.

Interest expense for the three months ended August 31, 2015 decreased $35,583 or 5.1% to $661,604 in comparison to $697,187 for the three months ended August 31, 2014.  The decrease in interest expense is directly related to the modified loan payment terms on our credit facility with Maximilian.  The credit facility activity is discussed further in the discussion of the Maximilian Credit Facility – Amended and Restated Loan Agreement in the MD&A section of this 10-Q report under Capital Resources and Liquidity – Cash Flow Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities, Non-current Debt (Long-term Borrowings).

Due to the nature of our business, we expect that revenues, as well as all categories of expenses, will continue to fluctuate substantially on a quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year basis.  Revenues are dependent upon both hydrocarbon production levels and the price we receive for hydrocarbon sales.  Since June of 2014, there has been a significant decline in the WTI price of crude oil and subsequently in the realized price we receive from oil sales.  This decline in the price of crude oil has had a substantial negative impact on our cash flow from both our Kentucky and California properties.  Production expenses will fluctuate according to the number and percentage ownership of producing wells that we own.  Exploration and drilling expenses will be dependent upon the amount of capital that we have to invest in future development projects, as well as the success or failure of such projects.  Likewise, the amount of DD&A expense will depend upon the factors cited above including the size of our proven reserves base and the market price of energy products.  G&A expenses will also fluctuate based on our current requirements, but will generally tend to increase as we expand the business operations of the Company.  An ongoing goal of the Company is to improve cash flow to cover the current level of G&A expenses and to fund our development drilling programs in California and Kentucky.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Our primary financial resource is our proven oil reserves base.  Our ability to fund any future capital expenditure programs is dependent upon the prices we receive from oil sales, the success of our exploration and development program in Lawrence County, Kentucky and Kern County, California and the availability of capital resource financing.

The Company has engaged an investment banking firm to assist in securing refinancing of its debt at more favorable terms and implement our development plans in California and Kentucky.

Changes in our capital resources at August 31, 2015 in comparison to February 28, 2015 are set forth in the table below:

Our working capital deficit decreased $351,381 or 6.1% to $5,405,641 at August 31, 2015 in comparison to $5,757,022 at February 28, 2015.  This decrease in the working capital deficit was due to reclassification of part of the current portion of the Maximilian credit facility debt to non-current debt due to a loan modification with Maximilian during the six months ended August 31, 2015.  While we have ongoing positive cash flow from our operations in California and Kentucky we have not yet been able to generate sufficient cash flow to cover all of our G&A and interest expense requirements on a consistent basis.

Our business is capital intensive.  Our ability to grow is dependent upon favorably obtaining outside capital and generating cash flows from operating activities necessary to fund our investment activities.  There is no assurance that we will be able to achieve profitability.  Since our future operations will continue to be dependent on successful exploration and development activities and our ability to seek and secure capital from external sources, should we be unable to achieve sustainable profitability this could cause any equity investment in the Company to become worthless.

Major sources of funds in the past for us have included the debt or equity markets.  While we have achieved positive cash flow from operations in Kentucky and California, we will have to rely on these capital markets to fund future operations and growth.  Our business model is focused on acquiring exploration or development properties as well as existing production.  Our ability to generate future revenues and operating cash flow will depend on successful exploration, and/or acquisition of oil and gas producing properties, and stabilized hydrocarbon prices, which may very likely require us to continue to raise equity or debt capital from outside sources.

24

Daybreak has ongoing capital commitments to develop certain leases pursuant to their underlying terms.  Failure to meet such ongoing commitments may result in the loss of the right to participate in future drilling on certain leases or the loss of the lease itself.  These ongoing capital commitments may also cause us to seek additional capital from sources outside of the Company.  The current uncertainty in the credit and capital markets, and the decline of hydrocarbon prices, may restrict our ability to obtain needed capital.

The Company’s financial statements for the six months ended August 31, 2015 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.  Since entering the oil and gas exploration industry, we have mostly incurred quarterly net losses.  As of August 31, 2015, we have an accumulated deficit of $29,258,170 and a working capital deficit of $5,405,641 which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

In the current fiscal year, we will continue to seek additional financing for our planned exploration and development activities in both Kentucky and California.  The Company has engaged an investment banking firm to assist in securing refinancing of its debt under more favorable terms and implement its development plans in California and Kentucky.  We plan to obtain financing through various methods, including issuing debt securities, equity securities, or bank debt, or combinations of these instruments, which could result in dilution to existing security holders and increased debt and leverage.  No assurance can be given that we will be able to obtain funding under any loan commitments or any additional financing on favorable terms, if at all.  Sales of interests in our assets may be another source of cash flow.

Cash Flows

Changes in the net funds provided by and (used in) our operating, investing and financing activities are set forth in the table below:

Cash Flow Provided by (Used In) Operating Activities

Cash flow from operating activities is derived from the production of our oil and natural gas reserves and changes in the balances of non-cash accounts, receivables, payables or other non-energy property asset account balances.  For the six months ended August 31, 2015, we had cash flow used in operating activities of $263,103 in comparison to cash flow provided by operating activities of $97,529 for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  This decline in operating cash flow of $360,632 or 369.8% is directly related to lower realized hydrocarbon revenues due to a sharp decline of over 60% in crude oil prices since June of 2014.  Non-cash account balances relating to DD&A; amortization of debt discount and deferred financing costs; and stock compensation accounted for a decrease of $49,997 for the six months ended August 31, 2015.  Changes in our receivables, prepaids and payables balances accounted for a net increase of approximately $600,000 in our cash flow, but were offset by the increase in the net loss of approximately $1.1 million for the six months ended August 31, 2015.  Variations in cash flow from operating activities may impact our level of exploration and development expenditures.

Cash Flow Provided by (Used in) Investing Activities

Cash flow from investing activities is derived from changes in oil and gas property balances and our lending activities associated with the App Energy loan. Cash flow provided by investing activities for the six months ended August 31, 2015 was $491,786, a change of $4,521,742 from the $4,029,956 used in investing activities for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  This change of $4,521,742 was due to reduced drilling activity in Kentucky for the six months ended August 31, 2015 resulting in reduced borrowing through our credit facility with Maximilian.  The credit facility and our lending activity to App Energy is discussed further in the MD&A section of this 10-Q report under the caption “Long-Term Borrowings – Maximilian Credit Facility.”

25

Cash Flow Provided by (Used In) Financing Activities

Cash flow from financing activities is derived from changes in long-term liability account balances or in equity account balances, excluding retained earnings.  Cash flow used in our financing activities was $602,963 for the six months ended August 31, 2015 in comparison to cash flow provided by our financing activities of approximately $3.7 million for the six months ended August 31, 2014.  This change of $4,269,256 was due to a reduced amount of drilling activity in Kentucky for the six months ended August 31, 2015 resulting in less borrowing through our credit facility with Maximilian.  The credit facility and our lending activity to App Energy is discussed further in the MD&A section of this 10-Q report discussed further in the discussion of the Maximilian Credit Facility – Amended and Restated Loan Agreement in the MD&A section of this 10-Q report under Capital Resources and Liquidity – Cash Flow Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities, Non-current Debt (Long-term Borrowings) in this MD&A.

The following discussion is a summary of cash flows provided by, and used in, the Company’s financing activities at August 31, 2015.

Current Debt (Short-Term Borrowings)

Related Party

During the years ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2013, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer loaned the Company $250,100 in aggregate that was used for a variety of corporate purposes including an escrow requirement on a loan commitment; extension fees on third party loans; and, a reduction of principal on the Company’s credit line with UBS Bank.  These loans are non-interest bearing loans and repayment will be made upon a mutually agreeable date in the future.

Line of Credit

The Company has an existing $890,000 line of credit for working capital purposes with UBS Bank USA (“UBS”), established pursuant to a Credit Line Agreement dated October 24, 2011 that is secured by the personal guarantee of our President and Chief Executive Officer.  At August 31, 2015, the Line of Credit had an outstanding balance of $855,333.  Interest is payable monthly at a stated reference rate of 0.249% + 337.5 basis points and totaled $15,468 for the six months ended August 31, 2015.  The reference rate is based on the 30 day LIBOR (“London Interbank Offered Rate”) and is subject to change from UBS.

Non-current Debt (Long-Term Borrowings)

12% Subordinated Notes

The Company’s 12% Subordinated Notes (“the Notes”) were issued pursuant to a March 2010 private placement (of which $250,000 was issued to a related party) and accrue interest at 12% per annum, payable semi-annually on January 29th and July 29th.  On January 29, 2015, the company and 12 of the 13 holders of the Notes agreed to extend the maturity date of the Notes for an additional two years to January 29, 2017.  The note principal of $565,000 is payable in full at the amended maturity of the Notes.  Should the Board of Directors, on the maturity date, decide that the payment of the principal and any unpaid interest would impair the financial condition or operations of the Company, the Company may then elect a mandatory conversion of the unpaid principal and interest into the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate equal to 75% of the average closing price of the Company’s common stock over the 20 consecutive trading days preceding December 31, 2016.

12% Notes balances at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 are set forth in the table below:

26

In conjunction with the Notes private placement, a total of 1,190,000 common stock purchase warrants were issued at a rate of two warrants for every dollar raised through the private placement.  The warrants have an exercise price of $0.14 and an amended expiration date of January 29, 2017.  The 12% Note warrants that have been exercised are set forth in the table below.

Maximilian Credit Facility

On October 31, 2012, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Maximilian, which provided for a revolving credit facility of up to $20 million, maturing on October 31, 2016, with a minimum commitment of $2.5 million.  The loan had annual interest of 18% and a monthly commitment fee of 0.5%.  The Company also granted Maximilian a 10% working interest in its share of the oil and gas leases in Kern County, California.  The relative fair value of this 10% working interest amounting to $515,638 was recognized as a debt discount and is being amortized over the term of the loan.  Amortization expense was $68,196 for the six months ended August 31, 2015.  Unamortized debt discount amounted to $135,869 at August 31, 2015.

In 2012, the Company also issued 2,435,517 warrants to third parties who assisted in the closing of the loan.  The warrants have an exercise price of $0.044; contain a cashless exercise provision; have piggyback registration rights; and are exercisable for a period of five years expiring on October 31, 2017.  The fair value of the warrants, as determined by the Black-Scholes option pricing model, was $98,084 and included the following assumptions: a risk free interest rate of 0.72%; stock price of $0.04, volatility of 153.44%; and a dividend yield of 0.0%.  The fair value of the warrants was recognized as a financing cost and is being amortized as a part of deferred financing cost over the term of the loan.  As of August 31, 2015, 316,617 of these warrants remain unexercised.

Maximilian Credit Facility - Amended and Restated Loan Agreement

In connection with the Company’s acquisition of a working interest from App in the Twin Bottoms Field in Lawrence County, Kentucky, the Company amended its loan agreement with Maximilian on August 28, 2013.  The amended loan agreement provided for an increase in the revolving credit facility from $20 million to $90 million and a reduction in the annual interest rate from 18% to 12%.  The monthly commitment fee of 0.5% per month on the outstanding principal balance remained unchanged.  Advances under the amended loan agreement will mature on August 28, 2017.  The obligations under the amended loan agreement continue to be secured by a perfected first priority security interest in substantially all of the personal property of the Company, and a mortgage on the Company’s leases in Kern County, California.  The amended loan agreement also provided for the revolving credit facility to be divided into two borrowing sublimits.  The first borrowing sublimit is $50 million and is for borrowing by the Company, primarily for its ongoing oil and gas exploration and development activities.  The second borrowing sublimit, of $40 million, is for loans to be extended by the Company, as lender, to App, as borrower pursuant to a Loan and Security Agreement entered into between the Company and App on August 28, 2013 (See Note 8 – Note Receivable).

The amended loan agreement contains customary covenants for loan of such type, including among other things, covenants that restrict the Company’s ability to make capital expenditures, incur indebtedness, incur liens and dispose of property.  The amended loan agreement also contains various events of default, including failure to pay principal and interest when due, breach of covenants, materially incorrect representations and bankruptcy or insolvency.  If an event of default occurs, all of the Company’s obligations under the amended loan agreement could be accelerated by Maximilian, causing all loans outstanding (including accrued interest and fees payable thereunder) to be declared immediately due and payable.

As consideration for Maximilian facilitating the Company’s transactions with App and entering into the amended loan agreement, the Company (a) issued to Maximilian approximately 6.1 million common shares, representing 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock on a fully-diluted basis at the time of grant, and (b) issued approximately 6.1 million warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock representing the right to purchase up to an additional 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock on a fully-diluted basis, calculated as of the date of grant.  The warrants have an exercise price of $0.10; contain a cash exercise provision and are exercisable for a period of three years expiring on August 28, 2016; and contain an exercise blocker provision that prevents any exercise of the warrants if such exercise and related issuance of common stock would increase the Maximilian holdings of the Company’s common stock to more than 9.99% of the Company’s currently issued and outstanding shares at the time of the exercise.  The Company also granted to Maximilian a 50% net profits interest in the Company’s 25% working interest, after the

27

Company recovers its investment, in the Company’s working interest in its Kentucky acreage, pursuant to an Assignment of Net Profits Interest entered into as of August 28, 2013 by and between the Company and Maximilian.

On May 28, 2014 at Maximilian’s request, the Company finalized a share-for-warrant exchange agreement in which Maximilian returned to the Company 427,729 common shares and was in turn issued the same number of warrants containing the same provisions as the originally issued warrants.  This share-for-warrant exchange occurred so that Maximilian would hold no more than 9.99% of the Company’s common shares issued and outstanding.  The Company determined that the share-for-warrant exchange did not result in any incremental fair value.

On August 21, 2014, the Company entered into a First Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement and Share Repurchase Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Maximilian under its Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of August 28, 2013.  The Amendment secured for the Company an additional advance of $2,200,000 under its credit facility with Maximilian since the advances made by Maximilian had already exceeded its minimum funding commitment. Additionally, Maximilian agreed to temporarily decrease the required monthly payment made by the Company until it has paid $1,000,000 less than the principal payments required by the previous agreement.  Furthermore, Maximilian agreed to reduce the regular interest rate applicable to the loan from 12% per annum to 9% per annum and the default interest rate by 3%.

The additional advance, the reduction in the required monthly payment and the reduction in the interest rate were facilitated through the company’s acquisition of 5,694,823 shares of our common stock held by Maximilian.  The repurchased shares were cancelled and restored to the status of authorized, but unissued stock.  The Company paid for the share repurchase transaction through an advance of $1,708,447 under the existing loan agreement with Maximilian.

On May 20, 2015, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “2^nd Amendment”) with Maximilian under its Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of August 28, 2013.  The 2^nd Amendment modified the calculation of the required monthly payment for a three-month period ending June 30, 2015.  As consideration for entering into the loan modification, the Company agreed to lower the exercise price of the warrants Maximilian currently holds from $0.10 to $0.04.  No other terms of the warrant agreement were changed.

With the assistance of Maximilian, the Company is currently working with an investment banking firm to assist in securing refinancing of its debt with Maximilian, since the long-term commitment needed to develop the Kentucky and California projects no longer fits the Maximilian business model.  Maximilian is continuing to work with the Company in modifying the credit facility terms during this period of lower hydrocarbon prices.

Current debt balances at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 are set forth in the table below:

Non-current debt balances at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 are set forth in the table below:

App Loan Agreement

In connection with amending and restating its loan agreement with Maximilian, on August 28, 2013 the Company extended to App Energy, LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (“App Energy”) a credit facility for the development of a shallow oil project in an existing gas field in Lawrence County, Kentucky pursuant to a Loan and Security Agreement between the Company as lender and App Energy as borrower (the “App Loan Agreement”).

The App Loan Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of up to $40 million, maturing on August 28, 2017, with a minimum commitment of $2.65 million (the “Initial Advance”).  All funds advanced to App Energy, as borrower, by Daybreak, as lender, are to be borrowed by Daybreak under its Amended Loan Agreement with Maximilian.  The Initial Advance bears interest at a rate per annum equal to 16.8%, and subsequent loans under the Loan Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 12%.  The App Loan Agreement also provides for a monthly commitment fee of 0.6% per month of the outstanding principal balance of the loans.  The obligations under the App Loan Agreement are secured by a perfected first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of App Energy, including the App Energy leases in Lawrence County, Kentucky.

28

The proceeds of the initial borrowing by App Energy of $2.65 million under the App Energy facility were primarily used to (a) pay loan fees and closing costs, (b) repay indebtedness and (c) finance the drilling of three wells by App Energy in the Twin Bottoms Field in Lawrence County, Kentucky in which the Company has a 25% working interest.  Future advances under the facility will primarily be used for oil and gas exploration and development activities.

The App Loan Agreement contains customary covenants for loan of such type, including, among other things, covenants that restrict App Energy’s ability to make capital expenditures, incur indebtedness, incur liens and dispose of property.  The App Loan Agreement also contains various events of default, including failure to pay principal and interest when due, breach of covenants, materially incorrect representations and bankruptcy or insolvency.  If an event of default occurs, all of App Energy’s obligations under the App Loan Agreement could be accelerated by the Company, causing all loans outstanding (including accrued interest and fees payable thereunder) to be declared immediately due and payable.

In connection with the App Loan Agreement, App Energy also granted to the Company a 25% working interest in approximately 6,400 acres (currently 7,300 acres) in two large contiguous blocks in the Twin Bottoms Field in Lawrence County, Kentucky and entered into a corresponding promissory note and a Mortgage, Leasehold Mortgage, Assignment of Production, Security Agreement and Financing Statement, both dated as of August 28, 2013.  App Energy’s manager, John A. Piedmonte, Jr., also entered into a limited Indemnity Agreement in connection with the loan.  The loans under the App Loan Agreement are also guaranteed by certain of App Energy’s affiliates.

At August 31, 2015, the Company had advanced $8.3 million to App Energy through its credit facility.  Note receivable balances at August 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015 are set forth in the table below:

Capital Commitments

Daybreak has ongoing capital commitments to develop certain leases pursuant to their underlying terms.  Failure to meet such ongoing commitments may result in the loss of the right to participate in future drilling on certain leases or the loss of the lease itself.  These ongoing capital commitments may also cause us to seek additional capital from sources outside of the Company.  The current uncertainty in the credit and capital markets, and the economic downturn, may restrict our ability to obtain needed capital.

Encumbrances

The Company’s debt obligations, pursuant to the loan agreement with Maximilian, are secured by a perfected first priority security interest in substantially all of the personal property of the Company, and a mortgage on our leases in Kern County, California encompassing the Sunday, Bear, Black, Ball and Dyer Creek properties.  For further information on the loan agreement refer to the discussion of the Maximilian Credit Facility – Amended and Restated Loan Agreement in the  MD&A section of this 10-Q report under Capital Resources and Liquidity – Cash Flow Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities, Non-current Debt (Long-term Borrowings) in this MD&A.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Plan

On April 6, 2009, the Board approved the Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Plan (the “2009 Plan”) allowing the executive officers, directors, consultants and employees of Daybreak and its affiliates to be eligible to receive restricted common stock and restricted common stock unit awards.  Subject to adjustment, the total number of shares of Daybreak common stock that will be available for the grant of awards under the 2009 Plan may not exceed 4,000,000 shares; provided, that, for purposes of this limitation, any stock subject to an award that is forfeited in accordance with the provisions of the 2009 Plan will again become available for issuance under the 2009 Plan.  We believe that awards of this type further align the interests of our employees and our shareholders by providing significant incentives for these employees to achieve and maintain high levels of performance.  Restricted stock and restricted stock units also enhance our ability to attract and retain the services of qualified individuals.

29

At August 31, 2015, a total of 3,000,000 shares of restricted stock had been awarded and remained outstanding under the 2009 Plan, with 2,986,220 shares having fully vested.  A total of 1,013,780 common stock shares remained available at August 31, 2015 for issuance pursuant to the 2009 Plan.  A summary of the 2009 Plan issuances is set forth in the table below:

⁽¹⁾

Does not include shares that were withheld to satisfy such tax liability upon vesting of a restricted award by a Plan Participant, and subsequently returned to the 2009 Plan.

⁽²⁾

Reflects the number of common shares that were withheld pursuant to the settlement of the number of shares with a fair market value equal to such tax withholding liability, to satisfy such tax liability upon vesting of a restricted award by a Plan Participant.

For the six months ended August 31, 2015, the Company did not recognize any stock compensation expense related to the above restricted stock grants since all issuances have been fully amortized.

Management Plans to Continue as a Going Concern

We continue to implement plans to enhance Daybreak’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company currently has a net revenue interest in 20 producing wells in its East Slopes Project located in Kern County, California (the “East Slopes Project”).  The revenue from these wells has created a steady and reliable source of revenue.  The Company’s average working interest in these wells is 36.6% with an average net revenue interest of 28.4% for these same wells.  Additionally, Daybreak currently has a net revenue interest in 13 producing horizontal oil wells in the Twin Bottoms Field in Lawrence County, Kentucky.  Our average working interest in these thirteen wells is 22.4% with an average net revenue interest of 19.6%.

We anticipate revenues will continue to increase as the Company participates in the drilling of more wells in Kentucky and California.  Daybreak plans to continue its development drilling program at a rate that is compatible with its cash flow, funding opportunities and hydrocarbon prices.

The Company’s sources of funds in the past have included the debt or equity markets and, while the Company has experienced revenue growth from its oil properties, it has not yet established a positive cash flow on a company-wide basis.  It will be necessary for the Company to obtain additional funding from the private or public debt or equity markets in the future.  However the Company cannot offer any assurance that the Company will be successful in executing the aforementioned plans to continue as a going concern.

Critical Accounting Policies

Refer to Daybreak’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2015.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of August 31, 2015, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partners that have been, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

As of the end of the reporting period, August 31, 2015, an evaluation was conducted by Daybreak management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer, who is also serving as our interim principal finance and accounting officer, as to the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act.  Such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within required time periods specified by the SEC rules and forms.  Additionally, it is vital that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer, in a manner to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.  Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our disclosure controls were effective as of August 31, 2015.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the six months ended August 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors or all instances of fraud.  A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.  Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls.  The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and any design may not succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.  Because of the inherent limitation of a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q Report, you should carefully consider the various factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2015, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Our Annual Report is available from the SEC at www.sec.gov.  The risks described in this report are not the only risks we face.  Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or future results of operations.

ITEM 5.  OTHER INFORMATION

On October 14, 2015, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement and Second Warrant Amendment with Maximilian, which amended the Company’s loan agreement with Maximilian (the “Maximilian Amendment”).  Pursuant to the Maximilian Amendment, Maximilian agreed to a reduction in the Company’s monthly payments under the loan agreement to $50,000 per month for a period of six months ending on February 29, 2016.  The reduction in monthly payments allows for additional funds to be used by the Company in drilling and completing additional wells in Kentucky.  As consideration for the reduction in the monthly payment amount, the Company agreed that twenty percent of the amount by which the monthly payment was reduced would be added to the loan balance, and the portion of the monthly payment savings that constitutes savings in interest or commitment fees would be treated as an additional advance of principal under the loan agreement (the “Deemed Advances”).  The Company also agreed to grant to Maximilian an overriding royalty interest in four wells it drills of 1.5% of its working interest in such wells, subject to reduction connected to the Company’s ongoing efforts to refinance its loan agreement.  As part of the Maximilian Amendment, the Company also agreed to extend the expiration date of the warrants held by Maximilian to purchase up to 6,550,281 shares of common stock of the Company to August 28, 2018.

In connection with entering into the Maximilian Amendment, the Company concurrently entered into a Second Amendment to Loan and Security Agreement with App Energy (the “App Amendment”), which amended the Company’s loan agreement with App Energy in which the Company, as lender, lends to App Energy, as borrower, a portion of the advances it receives pursuant to its loan agreement with Maximilian.  The App Amendment provides for a reduction in interest rate and a reduction in monthly payments to be made by App Energy to the Company for the same payment cycles as the reduced payment to be made by the Company under the Maximilian Amendment.  The reduction in monthly payments by App Energy will allow App Energy to fund its share of drilling and completing additional wells in Kentucky with the Company.  As consideration for the reduction in the monthly payment amount, App Energy agreed that a percentage of the Deemed Advances will be treated as additional advances under the App Energy loan agreement, and that it would fund a portion of the Company’s drilling and development expenses with respect to two wells, subject to a partial refund connected to the Company’s ongoing efforts to refinance its loan agreement.  App Energy also agreed to grant to Maximilian an overriding royalty interest on the same terms as the overriding royalty interest agreed to by the Company.  Finally, App Energy granted to the Company a time-limited option to purchase additional working interest in its Kentucky operations connected to the Company’s ongoing efforts to refinance its loan agreement.
