SIGNATURE EXPLORATION AND PRODUCTION CORP.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
December 31, 2009

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating results for the interim period.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year.  The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the  consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operation, for the year ended March 31, 2009, contained in the Company’s March 31, 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has experienced net losses since April 4, 2001 which losses have caused an accumulated deficit of approximately $5,619,000 as of December 31, 2009. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
Management has been able, thus far, to finance the losses through a public offering, private placements and obtaining operating funds from stockholders. The Company is continuing to seek sources of financing.  There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in achieving its goals.
 
In view of these conditions, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain additional financing or capital sources, to meet its financing requirements, and ultimately to achieve profitable operations. The Company is currently in the process of acquiring and developing crude oil and natural gas leases. Management believes that its current and future plans provide an opportunity to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Reporting Entity. Signature Exploration and Production Corp.  (“Signature” or “the Company”) was incorporated on April 4, 2001 under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is authorized to issue 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.0001. A subsidiary included in prior year’s financial statements was dissolved in 2009.  As of March 1, 2008, the Company became an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and development of crude oil and natural gas leases in the United States. We have reported our Statement of Operations and Statement of Cash Flows from the inception as an exploration stage company to the current reporting period of December 31, 2009. The Company’s office is located in Houston, Texas.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Exploration Stage Company. The Company is considered to be in the exploration stage.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

Revenue Recognition. Revenue associated with the production and sales of crude oil, natural gas, natural gas liquids and other natural resources owned by the Company will be recognized when production is sold to a purchaser at a fixed or determinable price when delivery has occurred and title passes from the Company to its customer, and if the collectability of the revenue is probable.

Use of Estimates.  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Income Taxes.  The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax items are reflected at the enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected reverse. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.    Due to the uncertainty regarding the success of future operations, management has valued the deferred tax asset allowance at 100% of the related deferred tax assets.

Loss per Share. The Company’s basic loss per share has been calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company has 47,091,812 common stock equivalent shares outstanding as of December 31, 2009.  However, such common stock equivalents, were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Oil and gas properties.  In July 2009, the Company changed its method of accounting for its oil and gas exploration and development activities from the full cost method to the successful efforts method. This change did not affect our financial statements as we did not have any activity until the second quarter. Although the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas exploration and development activities continues to be an accepted alternative, the successful efforts method of accounting is the preferred method. The Company believes the successful efforts method provides a more transparent representation of its results of operations and the ability to assess the Company’s investments in oil and gas properties for impairment based on their estimated fair values rather than being required to base valuation on prices and costs as of the balance sheet date.

In accordance with the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and gas properties, costs of productive wells, developmental dry holes and productive leases are capitalized into appropriate groups of properties based on geographical and geological similarities. These capitalized costs are amortized using the unit-of-production method based on estimated proved reserves. Proceeds from sales of properties are credited to property costs, and a gain or loss is recognized when a significant portion of an amortization base is sold or abandoned.

Exploration costs, such as exploratory geological and geophysical costs, delay rentals and exploration overhead, are charged to expense as incurred. Exploratory drilling costs, including the cost of stratigraphic test wells, are initially capitalized but charged to exploration expense if and when the well is determined to be nonproductive. The determination of an exploratory well’s ability to produce must be made within one year from the completion of drilling activities. The acquisition costs of unproved acreage are initially capitalized and are carried at cost, net of accumulated impairment provisions, until such leases are transferred to proved properties or charged to exploration expense as impairments of unproved properties.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In December 2008, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released Final Rule, Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting. The new disclosure requirements include provisions that permit the use of new technologies to determine proved reserves if those technologies have been demonstrated empirically to lead to reliable conclusions about reserves volumes. The new requirements also will allow companies to disclose their probable and possible reserves to investors. In addition, the new disclosure requirements call for companies to: (a) report the independence and qualifications of its reserves preparer or auditor; (b) file reports when a third party is relied upon to prepare reserves estimates or conducts a reserves audit; and (c) report oil and gas reserves using an average price based upon the prior 12-month period rather than year-end prices. The new disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements for fiscal years ending on or after December 31, 2009. The effect of adopting the SEC rule has not been determined, but is not expected to have a significant effect on our current or prior financial position or earnings.
 
In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued an Accounting Standards Update to update the Extractive Industries—Oil and Gas Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The objective of the update is to align the oil and gas reserve estimation and disclosure requirements of the financial accounting standards with the SEC’s final rule discussed above. The proposed amendments would be effective for financial statements for fiscal years ending on or after December 31, 2009. These amendments are not expected to have a significant effect on our current or prior financial position or earnings.

NOTE 4 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company holds certain financial assets which are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with ASC Topic 820-10.   ASC Topic 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).  ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820-10 are described below:

Level 1. Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.  The Company’s Level 1 assets include cash.

Level 2. Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.  The Company’s Level 2 assets and liabilities consist of notes and convertible notes payable. Due to the short term nature of its notes and convertible notes payable, the Company estimates the fair value of these assets and liabilities at their current basis.

Level 3. Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 fair value elections are made on an instrument by instrument basis. The Company’s Level 3 assets or liabilities consist of convertible notes and warrants with imbedded derivatives.  These convertible notes are valued using internally developed valuation models, inputs to which include interest rates, credit risk, stock price, and volatilities. Unobservable inputs used in these models are significant to the fair values of the liabilities.

The liabilities in the preceding tables were measured at fair value due to events or circumstances the Company identified that significantly impacted the fair value of these liabilities during the periods presented. The Company measured the fair value for each liability based on the Black-Scholes option valuation model which is widely used by market participants.  This value was then allocated to the principle amount of the notes based on their percentage of the total value using the Black-Scholes model.

NOTE 5 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES AND WARRANTS

December 2009 Convertible Notes and Warrants

On December 7, 2009, Signature Exploration and Production Corp. (the "Company") entered into two Convertible Note Agreements ("Notes") for a total of $352,942.  The Company received aggregate proceeds of $300,000 reflecting a 15% original issue discount to the Note holders.

The Notes will accrue interest at the rate of 10% per annum and are due on December 7, 2010.  The note holders may convert any portion of the Notes that are outstanding, whether such portion represents principal or interest, into shares of common stock of the Company at a price equal to $0.35. The Notes include an anti-dilution adjustment that may not be adjusted below $0.01.

Simultaneously with the issuance of this Note, the Company issued to each Note holder a 5-year warrant (the "Warrant") to purchase 504,203 shares of common stock of the Company.  The Warrant is exercisable at a price equal to $0.50. The Warrants include an anti-dilution adjustment that may not be adjusted below $0.01.

The note holder will only be allowed to convert shares or exercise warrants or portion thereof to the extent that, at the time of the conversion or exercise, the conversion or exercise will not result in the note holder beneficially owning more than 9.9% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company.

Do to the liquidity of the Company’s and investor ownership restrictions in theses note and warrants, the company chose to value these liabilities at fair market value as discussed in Note 4.  The principle amount due on these notes is $352,942, whereas, the Company’s aggregate fair value of the notes is $174,913 and the remaining $178,030 has been allocated to the derivative liability.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s expectations, beliefs, intentions or future strategies that are signified by the words “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “believes,” or similar language. These forward-looking statements, including those with respect to our operating results for 2008, are based upon current expectations and beliefs of the Company’s management and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause results to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Some, but not all, of the factors, which could cause actual results to differ materially include those set forth in the risks discussed below under the subheading “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report. The Company undertakes no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements, or to explain why actual results differ. Readers should carefully review the risk factors described in this section below and in any reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Overview
 
Our company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on April 4, 2001, under the name of “Flagstick Ventures, Inc.” On March 28, 2008, a majority of our stockholders approved changing our name to Signature Exploration and Production Corp. as our business model had changed to becoming an independent energy company engaged in the exploration, development, exploitation and acquisition of on-shore oil and natural gas properties in conventional producing areas with a focus along the gulf coast of Texas.  As of December 31, 2009, we have not yet generated revenues and have incurred $2,500 of expenses related to the energy operations.

Plan of Operation

Our strategy is to continue making acquisitions of select properties that have been identified as economically attractive, technically and geologically sound and have significant upside potential.
 
We are building our business through the acquisition of producing oil and natural gas wells, interests and leases. Our strategy is to combine the secure and reliable revenue source of operating and non-operated interests from producing oil wells with the potential of an oil and gas exploration project. We are purchasing operating and non-operating interests, acquiring development stage exploration property and carrying out an exploration program on the acquired property.
 
The Company continues to operate with very limited capital. Since our inception in 2001, we have been unable to locate a consistent source of additional financing for use in our operational or expansion plans. The Company is currently attempting to raise sufficient funds to purchase leases of oil and gas properties.  We can give no assurances that the Company will be able to purchase any leases.  Each oil and gas property in which we obtain an interest in will have an operator who will be responsible for marketing production.

Unproven Properties

Koliba Prospect – Bloomington TX

In October 2009, we acquired a 15% working interest in this well. The Koliba well prospect covers 143 acres over an anticlinal structure (target) located in the North McFaddin Field. The prospect which is both a structural and strategraphic trap that includes a four way closure. This well is considered a low risk/high reward prospect due to its proximity to the previous producing well and the potential for multiple pay sand discoveries in the prolific Frio interval.

Catron Prospect – Carton County, NM

We acquired a lease of 1,320 acres in Catron County, New Mexico.  The lease term is for ten years.   We are evaluating options for the use of this land.

 
14

 

Kenedy Prospect – Kenedy County, TX

In August 2009, we acquired a 10% working interest with an option to acquire 10% on additional wells on a 980 acre prospect located in Kenedy County, Texas. A 3-D seismic has been performed on this property and reviewed by a geophysicist who has advised us of two potential targets for drilling.

Nettie Rhodes Prospect – Young County, Texas

In August 2009, we acquired a five percent turnkey working interest on the Nettie Rhodes Lease.  The Nettie Rhodes Lease is located in the southwest corner of Young County, Texas.  It is approximately six miles north east of the town of Woodson, Texas and consists of approximately 160 acres.  The land is on the west flank of the Bend Arch located in central Texas.  There are currently five wells on properties adjacent to this lease that are producing oil and natural gas.  We are currently evaluating and obtaining cost estimates to perform a 3-D seismic on this lease.

Medicine River Ranch – Barber County, Kansas

In August 2009, we signed an Option Agreement allowing the Company to purchase up to a fifty percent working interest in the oil and gas exploration and development activities on 2,087 acres known as Medicine River Ranch.  This option is valid for one year or until a Definitive Participation Agreement is either entered into or rejected by both parties.

Cash Requirements
 
We estimate that we will require an additional $917,000 to fund our currently anticipated requirements for ongoing operations for our existing business for the next twelve-month period. We expect to pay $35,000 for professional fees and expenses related to being a public company, $50,000 for expenses related to general operations and $19,000 for a rent settlement.  We will also need approximately $865,000 to repay $803,000 of notes payable and the related interest of approximately $62,000. We are also evaluating additional leases and working interests that will require additional capital once the costs associated with these activities are determined.

Based upon our cash position, we will need to raise additional capital prior to the end of the third quarter of 2009 in order to fund current operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  We are pursuing several alternatives to address this situation, including the raising of additional funding through equity or debt financings.  We are in discussions with our existing stockholders to provide additional funding in exchange for notes or equity.   In order to finance existing operations and pay current liabilities over the next twelve months, we will need to raise $917,000 of capital. However, there can be no assurance that the requisite financing will be consummated in the necessary time frame or on terms acceptable to us.  Should we be unable to raise sufficient funds, we may be required to curtail our operating plans or possibly cease operations.  No assurance can be given that we will be able to operate profitably on a consistent basis, or at all, in the future.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008
 
Stock Compensation.  Stock compensation expenses increased by approximately $131,000 in 2009.  This increase can be attributed to employee compensation of $131,000.

General and Administrative.  General and administrative expenses increased by $257,000 in 2009.  This increase can be attributed to an increase in expenses related to investor relations and professional fees.

Other Expenses.  Other expenses increased by $147,000 in 2009 due to a loss on a loan modification of $78,000 and $70,000 of  interest expense on notes payable and interest related to the beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes issued during the three months ended December 31, 2009.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008
 
Stock Compensation.  Stock compensation expenses increased by approximately $2,018,000 in 2009.  This increase can be attributed to professional fees of $985,000, employee compensation of $1,030,500 and $2,500 for an option to participate in an oil and gas lease.

General and Administrative.  General and administrative expenses decreased by $243,000 in 2009.  This increase can be attributed to an increase in expenses related to investor relations and professional fees.

Other Expenses.  Other expenses increased by $198,000 in 2009 due to a loss on a loan modification of $78,000 and $115,000 of  interest expense on notes payable and interest related to the beneficial conversion feature of convertible notes issued during the nine months ended December 31, 2009.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We had cash balances totaling approximately $33,000 as of December 31, 2009.   Historically, our principal source of funds has been cash generated from financing activities.
 
Cash flow from operations. We have been unable to generate either significant liquidity or cash flow to fund our current operations. We anticipate that cash flows from operations will be insufficient to fund our business operations for the next twelve-month period.

Cash flows from investing activities.  There was $21,000 and $-0- of cash used in investing activities for the purchase of oil and gas leases for the periods ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Cash flows from financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was generated from secured promissory notes that total $377,000 and $93,500 for the nine months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

 Variables and Trends
 
We have no operating history with respect to our acquisition and development of oil and gas properties. In the event we are able to obtain the necessary financing to move forward with our business plan, we expect our expenses to increase significantly as we grow our business. Accordingly, the comparison of the financial data for the periods presented may not be a meaningful indicator of our future performance and must be considered in light these circumstances.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
We prepare our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As such, we are required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are reasonable based upon the information available to us. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented.   

Successful Efforts Method. Generally accepted accounting principles provide for two alternative methods for the oil and gas industry to use in accounting for oil and gas producing activities.  These two methods are generally known in our industry as the full cost method and the successful efforts method.  Both methods are widely used.  The methods are different enough that in many circumstances the same set of facts will provide materially different financial statement results within a given year.  We have chosen the successful efforts method of accounting for our oil and gas producing activities.

 
16

 

Share Based Payments.  We estimate the value of stock option awards on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes pricing model (Black-Scholes model). The determination of the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors, and risk-free interest rate. If factors change and we employ different assumptions in future periods, the expense that we record may differ significantly from what we have recorded in the current period.
 
Fair Value of Certain Liabilities and Derivatives. Certain liabilities and derivatives were measured at fair value due to events or circumstances the Company identified that significantly impacted the fair value of these liabilities during the periods presented. The Company measured the fair value for each liability based on the Black-Scholes option valuation model which is widely used by market participants.  This value was then allocated to the principle amount of the notes based on their percentage of the total value using the Black-Scholes model.

Commitments
 
Except as shown in the following table, as of December 31, 2009, we did not have any material capital commitments, other than funding our operating losses and repaying outstanding debt. It is anticipated that any capital commitments that may occur will be financed principally through borrowings from stockholders (although such additional financing has not been arranged). However, there can be no assurance that additional capital resources and financings will be available to us on a timely basis, or if available, on acceptable terms.

Over the next twelve months the following contractual obligations as of December 31, 2009 are due:

Convertible notes
  $ 803,000  
Accrued interest
    62,000  
Lease settlement liability
    19,000  
         
Total
  $ 884,000  

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer (our principal executive officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 
17

 

As of December 31, 2009, the end of our quarter covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer (our principal executive officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our chief executive officer (our principal executive officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our quarter ended December  31, 2009 that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
 
Management has identified the following material weaknesses as it relates to our Internal Controls over Financial Reporting:
 
Insufficient Resources: We have an inadequate number of personnel with requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting.
 
Inadequate Segregation of Duties: We have an inadequate number of personnel to properly implement control procedures.
 
Management is committed to improving its internal controls and will (1) continue to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist the Company with accounting and finance responsibilities, (2) increase the frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel.
 
Management, including our president and chief executive officer (who is acting as our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (who is acting as our principal financial officer and principle accounting officer), have discussed the material weakness noted above with our independent registered public accounting firm. Due to the nature of this material weakness, there is a more than remote likelihood that misstatements which could be material to the annual or interim financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
