Business
 
General
 
We were incorporated on May 14, 2004 in Nevada. Between May 2004 and May 2007 we were relatively inactive. We originally intended to pursue promotional merchandising, but were unable to identify a sufficient number of suitable products for redistribution. In May 2007, we redirected our focus to the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas properties. Accordingly, during July 2007, we changed our name from Dujour Products, Inc. to Endeavor Energy Corporation. On September 25, 2007 we changed our name to Holloman Energy Corporation.
 
All of our exploration and development efforts are concentrated in Australia. We hold working interests in exploration licenses covering 4,554 square kilometers (1.125 million gross acres) located on the western flank of Australia’s Cooper Basin.
 
We are currently controlled by Holloman Corporation, a Texas corporation involved in the engineering and construction of pipelines and mid-stream gas processing facilities.
 
We are an exploration stage company and did not participate in drilling any wells during the year ended December 31, 2010.
 
As of March 10, 2011 we did not have any proven oil or gas reserves and we did not have any revenue.
 
The acquisition and disposal of Endeavor Canada
 
On August 3, 2007 we acquired Endeavor Canada Corporation (“Endeavor Canada”), an Alberta corporation involved in the exploration and development of oil and gas, for 9,000 shares of our Series A Preferred stock and 9,000,000 shares of the Class A preferred stock of our wholly owned subsidiary, First Endeavor Holdings. Each Series A Preferred share was convertible into one share of our common stock and was entitled to 1,000 votes on any matter submitted to our shareholders for approval. The Class A preferred shares of First Endeavor Holdings were, at the option of the holder of the shares, convertible into 9,000,000 shares of our common stock. Cameron King, one of our former officers and directors, owned a controlling interest in Endeavor Canada at the time of this transaction and received 6,500 Series A Preferred shares and 6,500,000 First Endeavor Holdings Class A preferred shares in exchange for his shares in Endeavor Canada.
 
During January 2008, we determined that the oil and gas assets held by Endeavor Canada did not warrant further investment. On February 15, 2008 we disposed of our interest in Endeavor Canada. As part of this process, we transferred all outstanding shares of Endeavor Canada to Cameron King. As part of the consideration for the purchase, the 6,500 shares of our Series A Preferred stock and the 6,500,000 Class A Preferred shares of First Endeavor Holdings previously issued to Mr. King were returned to us and cancelled. The remaining 2,500 shares of our Series A Preferred stock and 2,500,000 preferred shares of First Endeavor holdings were converted into an equivalent number of shares of our common stock during June 2008.
 
As of February 15, 2008 Endeavor Canada had a 100% working interest in one well, a 50% working interest in four wells, a 40% working interest in seven wells and working interests of 25% or less in two wells. Six of these wells were producing a total of approximately 2,540 mcf of gas per month (1,140 mcf of gas net to Endeavor Canada’s working interest in these wells) and the remaining eight wells were shut in due to required maintenance or the price of natural gas.

Our Australian assets
 
In May 2007 we acquired a 62.5% working interest in an offshore Australian oil and gas exploration permit area known as Victoria Permit 60 (“Vic P60”). We paid $639,487 in cash plus a 4.00% overriding royalty participation for this interest.
 
On November 21, 2007 we acquired Holloman Petroleum Pty. Ltd. (“Holloman Petroleum”) for 18,600,000 shares of our common stock. Holloman Petroleum’s assets consisted of working interests, varying between 37.5% and 100%, in seven oil and gas permits awarded by the Australian government. These permits, one of which included the remaining 37.5% working interest in Vic P60, had remaining terms expiring between October 2010 and June 2013, and covered 8,087 square kilometers (1,998,348 acres) of land in the Cooper/Eromanga Basin and 2,589 square kilometers (639,755 acres) offshore in the Gippsland Basin and the Barrow Sub-Basin. We have subsequently consolidated or relinquished a number of these working interests.
 
Onshore licenses – Cooper Basin
 
We currently hold working interests of 66.67% in two onshore Petroleum Exploration Licenses (PELs) in Australia. PEL 112 is comprised of 2,196 square kilometers (542,643 gross acres). PEL 444, which resulted from the consolidation of the PEL 108 and PEL 109 permits, is comprised of 2,358 square kilometers (582,674 gross acres). Both licenses are located on the southwestern flank of the Cooper Basin in the State of South Australia. We are obligated to pay 4.46% in royalties on our revenues generated by operations on these licenses.
 
The Department of Primary Industries and Resources of South Australia reports that the Cooper Basin has sourced over 4 billion barrels of oil and 5 trillion cubic feet of recoverable gas. It has in excess of 120,000 kilometers of 2-D seismic data and more than 1,200 wells in 65 oil and 20 gas fields. Our management believes that Australia provides a stable regulatory, tax and business environment in the oil and gas sector.
 
We are a party to a contingent agreement with Holloman Oil & Gas Pty Limited (“HOG”), an Australian corporation, which potentially grants HOG our working interest in PEL 112. The assignment of that working interest is expressly conditioned upon our negotiation and execution of a definitive farmin agreement with HOG. If the agreement is pursued, HOG agrees to:
 
 
·
Fund the costs required to drill, and if warranted, complete three wells on the PEL 112 within the timeframes required by the permit work programs; and
 
 
·
Pay us a 1.33% overriding royalty on gross revenues generated from the sale of any oil or gas produced from wells drilled on the PEL 112.
 
Under the contingent agreement, we have the right to earn up to a 33.33% working interest in the PEL 112 license by paying, prior to the time any well has reached 50% of the expected total depth, our  proportionate share of the cost of drilling any of the wells involved in the initial three-well drilling program. We also have the right to earn up to a one-third working interest in any future wells drilled on the PEL 112 by paying our proportionate share of the cost of drilling. Two of our officers/directors are officers of our controlling shareholder, Holloman Corporation, which holds a 100% interest in HOG.

In March 2008 HOG drilled an exploratory well on PEL 112. The well was drilled to approximately 6,000 feet and was a dry hole.
 
In June 2008 the Australian government extended the lease term and associated work programs for PEL 444 and PEL 112 by five years. Under Australian Law, at the end of each five year term, one third of the area covered by a petroleum exploration license must be relinquished. During June 2008, we identified and relinquished one-third of the acreage covered by PEL 112 and PEL 444 to the Australian government.
 
Heavy rains beginning in February 2010 created wide scale flooding in the Cooper Basin. The inaccessibility of roads and facilities partially curtailed Cooper Basin oil production and resulted in a general contraction of exploration activity. As a result, we applied for, and were granted an extension to our license terms on PEL 112 and PEL 444. We continue the necessary steps to obtain “Work Area Clearances” and plan to acquire additional targeted 3D and 2D seismic data on our licenses as soon as practicable.
 
We are currently investigating the acquisition of additional Australian-based assets to diversify our onshore exploration efforts and moderate the land-access risks, such as the flooding, we have faced in the past.
 
To maintain our exploration rights in the Cooper/Eromanga Basin, the Australian Government requires that we fulfill the following minimum work commitments:

Description of Minimum Work Obligation
 
Date of Required Completion
PEL 112
 
Acquisition of new seismic data: 2D (100km)
 
January 10, 2012

Drill one well
 
January 10, 2014
 
The farmin agreement through which we hold our working interests in PEL 112 and PEL 444 also obligates us to fulfill the drilling commitment set forth by the Australian Government. Based on technical recommendations, we intend to pursue the acquisition of a combination of 3-D and 2-D seismic data on our licenses. Our current exploration plan also calls for the drilling of five to six wells on our concessions. Early estimates indicate the costs to perform the work outlined in our Cooper Basin exploration plan would range from $27 million to $30 million.

During 2010, we completed processing more than 666 km (414 miles) of 2D seismic data. This reprocessing fulfilled our June 11, 2010 work program requirements and covered a significant portion of PEL 112 and PEL 444. Our 2D seismic reprocessing was performed by Dayboro Geophysical Pty Ltd (“Dayboro”) under the supervision of Isis Petroleum Consultants Pty Ltd (“Isis”). Both Isis and Dayboro are independent engineers with lengthy geological and geophysical work experience in the Cooper Basin. The processing sequence targeted lines which complimented our technical assessment of likely drilling prospects and future seismic acquisition.
 
We have also completed a broad range of technical studies relating to PEL 112 and PEL 444. The studies were performed by Isis and included; a) a review of Cooper Basin exploration acreage (including an analysis of the chronostratigraphy, an assessment of neighboring exploration results, an analysis of petroleum systems and a probabilistic volumetric assessment of leads), b) oil migration studies, c) adjacent oil pools studies, and d) economic feasibility studies. In the opinion of management, these studies have increased the value of both licenses.
 
During the 2010 license year, we retained Macquarie Tristone (“Tristone”) to assist in finding a joint venture partner to share all, or part, of the costs of exploring and developing our Cooper Basin concessions. We received multiple offers from potential joint venture partners as a result of this process. We believe, however, the results and timing of our negotiations were negatively affected by the Cooper Basin flooding. We did not accept any offers arising from the Tristone negotiations.
 
We are currently pursuing discussions with a number of joint venture candidates whose interest has arisen outside the Tristone process.
 
During 2010, we have actively sought joint venture partners for our oil and gas concessions and pursued financing to support seismic acquisition in the Cooper/Eromanga Basin. During 2011, we anticipate the establishment of one or more joint ventures, obtaining additional capital, and the pursuit of our Cooper Basin exploration plan.
 
Offshore permits – Gippsland Basin and Barrow Sub-Basin
 
In May 2007 we acquired a 62.5% working interest in an offshore Australian oil and gas exploration permit area known as the Vic P60. In connection with our acquisition of Holloman Petroleum we acquired the remaining 37.5% working interest in that permit. The Barrow Sub-Basin permits were also acquired through our acquisition of Holloman Petroleum.
 
The Vic P60 permit obligated us to drill a deep-sea exploration well by October 28, 2010. The Barrow Sub-Basin permits (WA-372P, WA-373P and WA-395P) required us to drill 12 offshore exploration wells between June 2010 and June 2013. Both the Barrow and Vic P60 permits also required the acquisition of significant amounts of 3D seismic data. Early estimates indicate the costs to perform the required work on the Barrow and Vic P60 permits would be in excess of $220,500,000.
 
Despite our best efforts, we were unable to identify a joint venture partner willing to undertake the obligations associated with our offshore permits, and felt it unlikely that we could do so in the current economic climate. Our work requirements to hold the permits had fallen behind schedule. Further, we recognized that continued pursuit of these permits would detract from our ability to maximize the value of our Cooper/Eromanga Basin holdings. As a result, we determined that it was in our best interest to relinquish our exploration rights in the Gippsland Basin and Barrow Sub-Basin.

On June 18, 2009 we requested procedural advice from the Australian government concerning relinquishment of our Barrow Sub-Basin permits and recognized an impairment of those permits. On August 5, 2009 the government returned a Notice of Intent to Cancel those permits. On October 16, 2009 the permits were cancelled.
 
On December 28, 2009 we requested procedural advice from the Australian government concerning relinquishment of the Vic P60 permit and recognized an impairment of that permit. On April 16, 2010 the government returned its final Notice of Intent to Cancel that permit. The Vic P60 permit was subsequently cancelled.
 
Competition
 
The petroleum and natural gas industry is highly competitive. Numerous independent oil and gas companies, oil and gas syndicates and major oil and gas companies actively seek out and bid for oil and gas properties as well as for the services of third party providers, such as drilling companies, upon which we rely. In the Cooper Basin, seismic and drilling contractors are limited. In large part, their schedules are controlled by demand from Santos Petroleum and other larger explorers in the area. Certain of our competitors control roads, bridges and other infrastructure we require to access our properties. Our reliance upon their infrastructure may create a competitive disadvantage for us. A substantial number of our competitors have longer operating histories and substantially greater financial and personnel resources than we do, and have demonstrated the ability to operate through industry cycles.
 
Some of our competitors not only explore for, produce and market petroleum and natural gas, but also carry out refining operations and market the resultant products on a worldwide basis which may provide them with additional sources of capital. Larger and better capitalized competitors may be in a position to outbid us for particular prospect rights. These competitors may also be better able to withstand sustained periods of unsuccessful drilling. Larger competitors may be able to absorb the burden of any changes in laws and regulations more easily than we can, which would adversely affect our competitive position.
 
Petroleum and natural gas producers also compete with other suppliers of energy and fuel to industrial, commercial and individual customers. Competitive conditions may be substantially affected by various forms of energy legislation and/or regulation considered from time to time by the governments and/or their agencies and other factors which are out of our control including, international political conditions, terrorism, overall levels of supply and demand for oil and gas, and the markets for synthetic fuels and alternative energy sources.
 
Regulation
 
The exploration, production and sale of oil and gas are extensively regulated by governmental authorities. Applicable legislation is under constant review for amendment or expansion. These efforts frequently result in an increase in the regulatory burden on companies in our industry and consequently an increase in the cost of doing business and decrease in profitability. Numerous governmental departments and agencies are authorized to, and have, issued rules and regulations imposing additional burdens on the oil and gas industry that often are costly to comply with and carry substantial penalties for non-compliance. Production operations are affected by changing tax and other laws relating to the petroleum industry, constantly changing administrative regulations and possible interruptions or termination by government authorities.
 
 
7

 
 
Oil and gas mineral rights may be held by individuals, corporations or governments having jurisdiction over the area in which such mineral rights are located. As a general rule, parties holding such mineral rights grant licenses or leases to third parties to facilitate the exploration and development of these mineral rights. The terms of the leases and licenses are generally established to require timely development. Notwithstanding the ownership of mineral rights, the government of the jurisdiction in which mineral rights are located generally retains authority over the drilling and operation of oil and gas wells.
 
Environmental considerations
 
Our operations are also subject to a variety of constantly changing laws and regulations governing the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to environmental protection. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations can result in the imposition of substantial fines and penalties as well as potential orders suspending or terminating our rights to operate. Some environmental laws to which we are subject provide for strict liability for pollution damage, rendering a person liable for environmental damage without regard to negligence or fault on the part of such person. In addition, we may be subject to claims alleging personal injury or property damage as a result of alleged exposure to hazardous substances, such as oil and gas related products or for other reasons.
 
Some environmental protection laws and regulations may expose us to liability arising out of the conduct of operations or conditions caused by others, or for acts which were in compliance with all applicable laws at the time the acts were performed. Changes in environmental laws and regulations, or claims for damages to persons, property, natural resources or the environment, could result in substantial costs and liabilities to us. These laws and regulations may substantially increase the cost of exploring, developing, producing or processing oil and gas and may prevent or delay the commencement or continuation of a given project and thus generally could have a material adverse effect upon our capital expenditures, earnings, or competitive position. We believe that we are in substantial compliance with current applicable environmental laws and regulations. Nevertheless, changes in existing environmental laws and regulations or in the interpretations thereof could have a significant impact on us and the oil and gas industry in general.
 
Risks
 
Our failure to obtain capital may significantly restrict our proposed operations
 
We need additional capital to fund operating losses and to explore for oil and gas. We do not know what the terms by which we may obtain any future capital, but any future sale of our equity securities would dilute the ownership of existing stockholders and could be at prices substantially below the market price of our common stock. We may not be able to obtain the capital we need.
 
We have never earned a profit
 
We expect to incur losses during the foreseeable future and we may never be profitable. To enable us to continue in business we will eventually need to earn a profit or obtain additional financing until we are able to earn a profit.

Oil and gas exploration is not an exact science, and involves a high degree of risk
 
Our primary exploration risk lies in the drilling of dry holes or drilling and completing wells which, though productive, do not produce gas and/or oil in sufficient amounts to return the amounts expended and produce a profit. Hazards, such as unusual or unexpected formation pressures, downhole fires, blowouts, loss of circulation of drilling fluids and other conditions are involved in drilling and completing oil and gas wells and, if such hazards are encountered, completion of any well may be substantially delayed or prevented. In addition, adverse weather conditions can hinder or delay operations, as can shortages of equipment and materials or unavailability of drilling, completion, and/or work-over rigs. Even though a well is completed and is found to be productive, water and/or other substances may be encountered in the well, which may impair or prevent production or marketing of oil or gas from the well. Exploratory drilling involves substantially greater economic risks than development drilling because the percentage of wells completed as producing wells is usually less than in development drilling. Exploratory drilling itself can be of varying degrees of risk and can generally be divided into higher risk attempts to discover a reservoir in a completely unproven area or relatively lower risk efforts in areas not too distant from existing reservoirs. While exploration adjacent to or near existing reservoirs may be more likely to result in the discovery of oil and gas than in completely unproven areas, exploratory efforts are nevertheless high risk activities.
 
Although the completion of oil and gas wells is, to a certain extent, less risky than drilling for oil and gas, the process of completing an oil or gas well is nevertheless associated with considerable risk. In addition, even if a well is completed as a producer, the well for a variety of reasons may not produce sufficient oil or gas in order to repay our investment in the well.
 
The acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas properties and the production and sale of oil and gas are subject to many factors which are outside our control
 
These factors include, among others, general economic conditions, proximity to pipelines, oil import quotas, supply, demand, and price of other fuels and the regulation of production, refining, transportation, pricing, marketing and taxation by federal, state, and local governmental authorities.
 
Due to the distances and infrastructure limitations involved in Cooper Basin exploration, we are subject to the impact of rains and flooding. Our Cooper Basin properties are situated largely on desert terrain. Though flooding is rare, we have experienced significant delays resulting from land access restrictions due to high standing water. Flooding in the past has resulted in increased investment in roads, bridges and infrastructure targeted at minimizing the effect of future heavy rains.
 
The drilling of oil and gas wells involves hazards such as blowouts, unusual or unexpected formations, pressures or other conditions which could result in substantial losses or liabilities to third parties
 
Although we believe the coverage and types of insurance we maintain are currently adequate, we may not be insured against all losses because insurance may not be available, premium costs may be deemed unduly high, or for other reasons. Accordingly, uninsured liabilities could result in significant losses and have a material adverse effect on our operations.

There is currently only a limited market for our common stock. A limited market is characterized by a relatively limited number of shares in the public float, relatively low trading volume and the small number of brokerage firms acting as market makers. The market for low priced securities is generally less liquid and more volatile than securities traded on national stock markets. Fluctuations in market prices are not uncommon. No assurance can be given that the market for our common stock will continue or that the stock price will be maintained.
 
As of March 10, 2011 we had 47 record holders of our common stock.
 
We have not declared any dividends and we do not plan to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future. We plan to retain earnings to finance the expansion of our operations.
 
On December 31, 2010, we issued 69,445 shares of our common stock, at an average price of $0.216 per share, in connection with the conversion of $15,000 in administrative service fees payable to a wholly owned subsidiary of our controlling shareholder, Holloman Corporation.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
 
General
 
Between May 2004 and May 2007 we were relatively inactive.
 
On August 3, 2007 we acquired Endeavor Canada. For accounting purposes, our acquisition of Endeavor Canada constituted a recapitalization and the acquisition was accounted for similar to a reverse merger whereby Endeavor Canada was deemed to have acquired us. As a result, our financial statements reflect the historical operations of Endeavor Canada prior to the merger, and our joint operations for the period from August 3, 2007, the merger date, through February 15, 2008, the date on which we divested of our interest in Endeavor Canada. At the time we divested, the assets of Endeavor Canada included all of our Canadian oil and gas properties.
 
During 2007 we also acquired working interests in certain onshore and offshore oil and gas permits awarded by the Australian government. During 2009, we relinquished the offshore portion of those working interests. Our current holdings include a 66.67% interest in PEL 112 and PEL 444 on the western flank of Australia’s Cooper Basin.
 
Heavy rains beginning in February 2010 created wide scale flooding in the Cooper Basin. The inaccessibility of roads and facilities partially curtailed Cooper Basin oil production and resulted in a general contraction of exploration activity. As flood waters began to recede, operators of neighboring licenses have restarted drilling programs and are improving or expanding roads, bridges and infrastructure to better deal with possible future flooding. Exploration within substantial areas of the Cooper Basin, however, remains temporarily impractical. We intend to continue the necessary steps to obtain “Work Area Clearances” and plan to acquire additional targeted 3D and 2D seismic data on our licenses as soon as practicable.
 
During 2010, we have actively sought joint venture partners for our oil and gas concessions and pursued financing to support seismic acquisition on our properties. During 2011, we anticipate the establishment of one or more joint ventures, obtaining additional capital, and the pursuit of our Cooper Basin exploration plan.
 
Results of Operations
 
Our consulting, management and professional fees, decreased by approximately $307,000 (33%) from $933,000 in 2009 to $626,000 in 2010. This decrease relates primarily to a reduction in legal fees and consulting personnel engaged in investor relations and the management of our offshore oil and gas concessions in Australia. The office and travel expenses we incurred during 2010 increased by approximately $81,000 (118%) when compared to 2009. This increase resulted from an expansion in international travel in connection with our negotiation of potential joint opportunities.

The Australian dollar gained strength against the US dollar during 2010 and 2009. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Australian dollar was convertible into 1.02 and .89 US dollars, respectively. As a result, we recognized a foreign exchange loss of $625,731 during 2010. At December 31, 2008, the Australian dollar was convertible into .69 US dollars resulting in a foreign exchange loss for 2009 of $1,355,095. Substantially all of our non-cash foreign exchange loss relates to the measurement of US dollars required to settle deferred taxes payable to the Australian Government.
 
During 2009, we relinquished all of our offshore oil and gas permits in the Gippsland Basin and the Barrow Sub-Basin. Despite our best efforts, we were unable to identify a joint venture partner willing to undertake the obligations associated with those licenses, and felt it unlikely that we could do so in the current economic climate. The value of these unproven properties was impaired to the extent of the carrying value of the underlying permits. Accordingly, during 2009 we recognized a loss on the impairment of oil and gas assets of $7,396,207. That loss was offset by the recognition of a deferred income tax recovery of $2,244,107. Oil and gas properties and deposit on acquisition were reduced by $6,756,720 and $639,487, respectively, to reflect the impairment of the permits.
 
On August 15, 2009, we established a Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan and a Stock Bonus Plan (Note 6 to our financial statements). In connection with the plans we recognized non-cash, stock-based compensation expense of $1,066,126 and $1,255,377 during the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. During 2009, this compensation expense  included non-cash director’s fees of $70,000 and non-cash management fees paid to officers of $42,000.
 
We have recognized an inception to date net loss of approximately $13,279,000. That loss consists of approximately $8,726,000 in non-cash expense including; stock-based fees and compensation expense of $2,726,000, unrealized foreign exchange loss of $848,000, and a net impairment of oil and gas properties of approximately $5,152,000. In addition, we have incurred $1,671,000 related to the discontinued operations of Endeavor Canada, and approximately $2,882,000 in other cash expenses related to exploration stage operations.  
 
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
The oil and gas industry is cyclical in nature and tends to reflect general economic conditions. The US and other world economies are recovering from a recession which continues to inhibit investment liquidity. Though oil prices are trending higher, the pattern of historic price fluctuations has resulted in additional uncertainty in capital markets. Our access to capital, as well as that of our partners and contractors, has been limited due to tightened credit markets. These limitations may inhibit the size and timing of formation of exploration ventures. As a result, the development of our property interests may be delayed due to financial constraints.

Our Cooper Basin exploration plan calls for the expenditure of approximately $10 million prior to March 30, 2012. Based upon technical recommendations, we intend to pursue the acquisition of a combination of 2-D and 3-D seismic data on our licenses. Our current exploration plan also calls for the drilling of five to six wells on our concessions. Early estimates indicate the costs to perform the work outlined in our current Cooper Basin exploration plan would range from $27 million to $30 million.

Our operations to date have been financed from the sale of our securities, loans from unrelated third parties and advances from Holloman Corporation, our current and former officers, directors and their affiliates. We regularly review the market to identify opportunities for capital formation.  We also intend to joint venture our work program obligations with third parties which will pay all, or a significant portion, of the costs required to explore for oil and gas in the area covered by our permits.
 
During 2009 and 2010, Macquarie Tristone (“Tristone”) provided us assistance in finding a joint venture partner to share the costs of our exploration efforts. We paid Tristone consulting fees of $241,615 in connection with their work. We received multiple offers or firm expressions of interest from potential joint venture partners as a result of this process. We believe, however, our negotiations were negatively affected by the Cooper Basin flooding. We did not accept any offers arising from the Tristone negotiations.
 
We are currently in discussions with a number of joint venture candidates whose interest has arisen outside the Tristone process.
 
During March 2011, we sold 1,400,002 shares of common stock in a private placement of investment units to Holloman Corporation, and to certain directors, and officers, and to 1 non-affiliated consultant. The investment units were priced at $0.15 each and consisted of one share of our common stock, and one stock purchase warrant. Each stock warrant entitles the holder to purchase one half share of our common stock at a price of $0.25 per share until February 14, 2012. Proceeds from the private placement totaled $210,000. Of that amount, $180,000 was paid in cash and $30,000 was a conversion of liabilities.
 
Effective October 1, 2010, we executed an administrative services agreement with our controlling shareholder. Under this agreement, fees of $5,000 per month are payable to Holloman Corporation covering; office and meeting space, supplies, utilities, office equipment, network access and other administrative facilities costs. These fees are payable quarterly in shares of our restricted common stock at the closing price of the stock on the last trading-day of the applicable monthly billing period. This administrative services agreement can be terminated by either party with 30-days notice. During 2010, we recorded $15,000 of office expense and issued 69,445 shares of our common stock as a result of this agreement. In December of 2010 proceeds from this administrative service agreement were assigned to a wholly owned subsidiary of Holloman Corporation.
 
During 2010, we substantially completed processing of more than 666 km (414 miles) of 2D seismic data at a cost of approximately $150,000.
 
Other than the obligations associated with our oil and gas concessions in Australia (see Item 1), we had no material future contractual obligations as of December 31, 2010.
 
We believe our plan of operations may require up to $11,000,000 for exploration costs and administrative expenses over the twelve-month period ending March 30, 2012. We are attempting to raise investment capital and enter into joint ventures with third parties who will pay all, or a significant portion of the costs required to explore for oil and gas and otherwise fulfill the obligations required by our Australian licenses.
 
If we are unable to raise the financing we need, our business plan may fail and our stockholders could lose their investment. If we are unable to perform in accordance with the work programs required by our licenses, the Australian government could cancel our exploration rights. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising the capital we require, or that if capital is offered, it will be subject to terms we consider acceptable. Investors should be aware that even in the event we are able to raise the funds we require, there can be no assurance that we will succeed in our drilling or production plans and we may never be profitable.

As of March 10, 2011 we did not have any off balance sheet arrangements.
 
As of March 10, 2011 we did not have any proven oil or gas reserves and we did not have any revenues.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
 
Measurement Uncertainty
 
The process of preparing financial statements requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, actual results may differ from estimated amounts. Our estimates and assumptions are based on current facts, historical experience and various other factors we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. The most significant estimates with regard to the financial statements included with this report relate to carrying values of oil and gas properties, determination of fair values of stock based transactions, and deferred income tax rates and timing of the reversal of income tax differences.
 
These estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the periods in which they become known.
 
Petroleum and Natural Gas Properties
 
We utilize the full cost method to account for our investment in oil and gas properties. Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves, including such costs as leasehold acquisition costs, capitalized interest costs relating to unproved properties, geological expenditures, tangible and intangible development costs including direct internal costs are capitalized to the full cost pool. When we commence production from established proven oil and gas reserves, capitalized costs, including estimated future costs to develop the reserves and estimated abandonment costs, net of salvage, will be depleted on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Costs of unproved properties are not amortized until the proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If an assessment of such properties indicates that properties are impaired, the amount of impairment is added to the capitalized cost base to be amortized.
 
The capitalized costs included in the full cost pool are subject to a "ceiling test", which limits such costs to the aggregate of the (i) estimated present value, using a ten percent discount rate, of the future net revenues from proved reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions, (ii) the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized, (iii) the cost of properties not being amortized, less (iv) income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of the cost of properties not being amortized and the cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties included in the costs being amortized. At December 31, 2010, all of our oil and gas interests were classified as unproven properties and were not being amortized.
 
 
15

 
 
Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in the statement of operations.
 
Stock Based Compensation
 
We record compensation expense for stock based payments using the fair value method. The fair value of stock based compensation to directors and employees is determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation model at the time of grant. Fair value for common shares issued for goods or services rendered by non-employees is measured based on the fair value of the goods and services received. Share-based compensation is expensed with a corresponding increase to share capital. Upon the exercise of the stock options, the consideration paid is recorded as an increase in share capital.
 
Foreign Currency Translation
 
Our functional and reporting currency, and that of our Australian subsidiary, is the United States dollar. The financial statements of our Canadian subsidiary are translated to United States dollars using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues and expenses. Translation gains (losses) are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency financial statements of our Australian subsidiary use period end rates for monetary assets and liabilities, historical rates for historical cost balances, and average rates for expenses. If material, translation gains and losses are included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian and Australian dollars. As of December 31, 2010, we have not entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
 
Income Taxes
 
We follow the asset and liability method of accounting for future income taxes. Under this method, future income tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on temporary differences between the carrying amount of balance sheet items and their corresponding tax bases. In addition, the future benefits of income tax assets, including unused tax losses, are recognized, subject to a valuation allowance, to the extent that it is more likely than not that such future benefits will ultimately be realized. Future income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates and laws expected to apply when the tax liabilities or assets are to be either settled or realized.
 
Earnings per share
 
We present both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (EPS) on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including convertible debt, stock options, and warrants, using the treasury stock method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. Diluted EPS figures are equal to those of basic EPS for each period since we have no dilutive stock options and warrants.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES.
 
On August 2, 2010, we dismissed Dale Matheson Carr-Hilton Labonte, L.L.P. as our independent registered public accounting firm and engaged Weaver and Tidwell, L.L.P. (“Weaver”) as our independent registered public accounting firm. See our Form 8-K filed with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 5, 2010.
 
ITEM 9A.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 
An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Financial Officer and Principal Executive Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-K. Disclosure controls and procedures are procedures designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and is communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
 
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as required by Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Section 404.A. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and includes those policies and procedures that:
 
 
17

 
 
(1)  Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets;
 
(2)  Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the issuer are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and
 
(3)  Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the issuer's assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. In evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that during the period covered by this report our internal controls and procedures were effective.
 
During 2010, we engaged the services of two independent professional service firms to provide assistance to our management to enhance our internal controls. In conjunction with these engagements we; a) performed a top-down assessment of our business risk environment, b) indentified and tested key financial controls, c) strengthened our control environment with the goal of establishing and implementing the controls deemed necessary to mitigate any control weaknesses identified, e) documented procedures, internal controls and the linkage of those controls to identified risks, and f) implemented a testing program to be used in testing the effectiveness of identified controls.  Other than the foregoing, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2010 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

During 2009, we paid Mr. Wesolek management fees totaling $123,075 and consulting fees totaling $138,375. As of December 31, 2010, Mr. Wesolek had voluntarily deferred $46,524 of the amounts payable to him. During March 2011, he converted $10,000 of those deferred fees into 66,667 shares of our common stock and 33,333 stock purchase warrants with an exercise price of $0.25 (expiring February 14, 2012) in a private placement of investment units at a market price of $0.15 per unit. Mr. Wesolek is compensated in the form of fees for services rendered in the normal course of operations. The amount of the fees was established and approved by our Board of Directors.
 (3)
Stock and option awards are valued at fair market value. The assumptions applied in our calculation of the value of those awards are set forth in Note 6 to our financial statements.
 
On August 15, 2009, we issued our officers and directors fractional participation in a 2% net revenue interest in wells drilled by us on lands in the Cooper Basin. These participation units represent a 0.454% interest in our Cooper Basin revenues, after all royalties, exploration expenses, operating costs and capital investments associated with the Cooper Basin have been recovered. In our opinion no value can be assigned to these revenue interests, as any valuation is non-estimable.
 
We do not have employment agreements with our officers.
 
We do not have any annuity, pension or retirement plans.
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
On August 15, 2009, we established a Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan and a Stock Bonus Plan. The Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the “Option Plan”) authorizes the issuance of up to 7,200,000 shares of our common stock. Under the Stock Bonus Plan up to 300,000 shares (“Bonus Shares”) of our common stock may be issued to employees, directors, officers, consultants and advisors, provided qualifying services are rendered.
 
At the discretion of our Board of Directors, any option may include installment exercise terms such that the option becomes fully exercisable in a series of cumulating portions. Any options granted or shares issued pursuant to the Plans will be forfeited if the "vesting" schedule established at the time of the grant is not met. The Company may at any time, and from time to time, amend, terminate, or suspend one or more of the Plans in any manner they deem appropriate, provided that any amendment, termination or suspension may not adversely affect rights or obligations with respect to options or shares previously granted.
 
The following table shows the options held by our officers and directors as of December 31, 2010. The options in the table were all granted pursuant to our Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of Holloman Energy Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Holloman Energy Corporation (an exploration stage company, the Company) as of December 31, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended and for the 2010 amounts included in the cumulative period from inception (May 5, 2006) to December 31, 2010. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.
 
 
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the 2010 consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Holloman Energy Corporation as of December 31, 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended and for the 2010 amounts included in the cumulative period from inception (May 5, 2006) to December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Holloman Energy Corporation will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, Holloman Energy Corporation has not generated revenues since inception, has incurred losses in developing its business, and further losses are anticipated. Holloman Energy Corporation requires additional funds to meet its obligations and the costs of its operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about Holloman Energy Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in this regard are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Holloman Energy Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Holloman Energy Corporation (a exploration stage company) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related consolidated  statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended and the period from May 5, 2006 (inception) through December 31, 2009.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position Holloman Energy Corporation as at December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended and the period from May 5, 2006 (inception) through December 31, 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

HOLLOMAN ENERGY CORPORATION
(An Exploration Stage Company)
 
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1.  NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
 
Holloman Energy Corporation (the “Company”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 14, 2004. The Company focuses on oil and gas exploration and development in Australia’s Cooper Basin.
 
On August 3, 2007, Holloman acquired Endeavor Canada Corporation (“Endeavor”), an Alberta Canada corporation involved in oil and gas development. The Company acquired Endeavour for 9,000 shares of its Series A preferred stock and 9,000,000 shares of the preferred stock of its wholly owned subsidiary, First Endeavor Holdings (“FEH”). For accounting purposes, the acquisition of Endeavor constituted a re-capitalization whereby Endeavor was deemed to have acquired Holloman. On February 15, 2008, the Company divested its interest in Endeavour (Note 3).
 
On November 21, 2007, the Company acquired Holloman Petroleum Pty. Ltd. (“Holloman Petroleum”) for 18,600,000 shares of its common stock. Holloman Petroleum’s assets consisted of working interests, varying between 37.5% and 100%, in seven oil and gas permits in Australia.
 
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company is in the exploration stage. It has not generated operating revenues, and has accumulated losses of $13,278,913 since inception. Holloman has funded its operations through the issuance of capital stock and debt. Management plans to raise additional funds through; third-party equity or debt financings, joint venturing of its work program obligations with third parties who will pay a significant portion of required program costs, and reliance upon the continued support of its controlling shareholder. There is no certainty that further funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern. Holloman’s ability to continue its operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of its assets, and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon; the continued support of its controlling shareholder, its ability to raise capital sufficient to fund its commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately generating profitable operations.
 
2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Basis of Presentation
 
These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with US GAAP, and are expressed in United States dollars. The Company has not produced revenues from its principal business and is an exploration stage company as defined by “Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 915, Development Stage Entities.” These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries FEH and Holloman Petroleum. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
 
 
F-7

 
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. The most significant estimates with regard to these financial statements relate to carrying values of oil and gas properties, determination of fair values of stock based transactions, and deferred income tax rates.
 
Foreign Currency Translation
 
The Company and its Australian subsidiaries’ functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian dollar. Foreign currency financial statements of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary are translated to United States dollars using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the period for revenues and expenses. Translation gains (losses) are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency financial statements of the Company’s Australian subsidiaries use period end rates for monetary assets and liabilities, historical rates for historical cost balances, and average rates for expenses.  If material, translation gains and losses are included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions of the Company’s subsidiaries are primarily undertaken in Australian and Canadian dollars. The Company has not, to the date of these financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
 
Oil and Gas Properties
 
The Company utilizes the full cost method to account for its investment in oil and gas properties. Accordingly, all costs associated with acquisition, exploration and development of oil and gas reserves, including such costs as leasehold acquisition costs, capitalized interest costs relating to unproved properties, geological expenditures, tangible and intangible development costs including direct internal costs are capitalized to the full cost pool. When the Company commences production from established proven oil and gas reserves, capitalized costs, including estimated future costs to develop the reserves and estimated abandonment costs, net of salvage, will be depleted on the units-of-production method using estimates of proved reserves. Costs of unproved properties are not amortized until the proved reserves associated with the projects can be determined or until impairment occurs. If an assessment of such properties indicates that properties are impaired, the amount of impairment is added to the capitalized cost base to be amortized.
 
The capitalized costs included in the full cost pool are subject to a "ceiling test", which limits such costs to the aggregate of the (i) estimated present value, using a ten percent discount rate, of the future net revenues from proved reserves, based on current economic and operating conditions, (ii) the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized, (iii) the cost of properties not being amortized, less (iv) income tax effects related to differences between the book and tax basis of the cost of properties not being amortized and the cost or estimated fair value of unproved properties included in the costs being amortized. At December 31, 2010, all of the Company’s oil and gas interests were classified as unproven properties and were not being amortized.
 
Sales of proved and unproved properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in the statement of operations.
 
 
F-8

 
 
Asset retirement obligations
 
The Company records the fair value of an asset retirement obligation as a liability in the period in which it incurs an obligation associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of the assets. The estimated fair value of the asset retirement obligation is based on the current cost escalated at an inflation rate and discounted at a credit adjusted risk-free rate. This liability is capitalized as part of the cost of the related asset and amortized over its useful life. The liability accretes until the Company settles the obligation.
 
Environmental
 
Oil and gas activities are subject to extensive federal and provincial environmental laws and regulations. These laws, which are constantly changing, regulate the discharge of materials into the environment and may require the Company to remove or mitigate the environmental effects of the disposal or release of petroleum or chemical substances at various sites.
 
Environmental expenditures are expensed or capitalized depending on their future economic benefit. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and that have no future economic benefits are expensed. Liabilities for expenditures of a non-capital nature are recorded when an environmental assessment and/or remediation is probable, and the costs can be reasonably estimated.
 
Income Taxes
 
Income taxes are determined using the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes that date of enactment. In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
 
The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes by applying a two-step method. First, it evaluates whether a tax position has met a more likely than not recognition threshold, and second, it measures that tax position to determine the amount of benefit, if any, to be recognized in the financial statements. The application of this method did not have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
 
Stock Based Compensation
 
The Company records compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements for share based payments using the fair value method. The fair value of share-based compensation to directors and employees is determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation model at the time of grant. Fair value for common shares issued for goods or services rendered by non-employees are measured based on the fair value of the goods and services received. Share-based compensation is expensed with a corresponding increase to share capital. Upon the exercise of the stock options, the consideration paid is recorded as an increase in share capital.
 
 
F-9

 
 
Long-Lived Assets
 
The carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets is reviewed on a regular basis for the existence of facts or circumstances that may suggest impairment. The Company recognizes impairment when the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated fair value.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The estimated fair value of cash, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates their carrying value due to their short-term nature.
 
In connection with private placements and compensation arrangements, the Company granted a 2% net revenue interest in wells drilled by the Company, or on its behalf, in the Company’s concessions covering lands in the Cooper Basin of Australia. It is management’s opinion that no value could be assigned to these revenue interests, as the fair value cannot be reasonably determined given the current stage of exploration.
 
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
 
The Company reports and displays comprehensive loss and its components in the consolidated financial statements. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the only components of comprehensive loss were foreign currency translation adjustments.
 
Earnings Per Share
 
The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including convertible debt, stock options, and warrants, using the treasury stock method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. Diluted EPS figures are equal to those of Basic EPS for each period since the Company does not have any dilutive stock options or warrants.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
The Company has reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and plans to adopt those that are applicable to it. It does not expect the adoption of these pronouncements to have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

3.  DIVESTITURE OF ENDEAVOR AND DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
 
Effective August 3, 2007, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Endeavor. The Company’s acquisition of Endeavor was accounted for as a re-capitalization using accounting principles applicable to reverse acquisitions whereby the financial statements subsequent to the date of the transaction are presented as a continuation of Endeavor. Under re-capitalization accounting Endeavor was treated as the Company’s accounting parent (legal subsidiary) and the Company was treated as the accounting subsidiary (legal parent). This means the consolidated results of operations of the Company include those of Endeavor from its inception on May 5, 2006 and those of the Company from the closing date of the re-capitalization on August 3, 2007. Endeavor, the acquired entity, is regarded as the predecessor and continuing entity as of August 3, 2007.
 
On August 3, 2007 the Company acquired Endeavor for 9,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred stock and 9,000,000 preferred shares of FEH. Each Series A Preferred share was convertible into one share of the Company’s common stock and was entitled to 1,000 votes on any matter submitted to the Company’s shareholders for approval. The 9,000,000 preferred shares of FEH were, at the option of the holder of the shares, convertible into 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
 
On February 1, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with its former Chief Executive Officer which provided the Company the option of exchanging all of its interest in Endeavor for the Company’s Series A Preferred shares and the Class A Preferred shares of FEH held by the former CEO.
 
On February 15, 2008, the option was exercised. As a result, the 6,500 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred stock and the 6,500,000 Class A Preferred shares of FEH originally issued to the CEO of Endeavour were returned to the Company and cancelled. In exchange, all outstanding shares of Endeavor were transferred to the former CEO.
 
The Company recognized a gain on its divestiture of Endeavor as follows:

4.  OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES
 
General
 
All of the Company’s oil and gas properties are located in Australia and are unproven. As such, the costs capitalized in connection with those properties are not currently subject to depletion. The Company intends to acquire additional seismic data and begin drilling exploratory wells on its properties within 18 months. It anticipates depletion of these properties will begin during fiscal year 2012. The costs incurred in oil and gas property acquisition and exploration activities are summarized as follows:

In May 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire a 62.5% working interest in an Australian oil and gas exploration permit covering 340,000 acres, more or less, in an area known as Victoria Permit 60 (“Vic P60”).
 
On November 21, 2007, the Company purchased seven Australian oil and gas interests. This purchase was facilitated by the acquisition of Holloman Petroleum Pty. Ltd., a privately held Australian-based company, for 18,600,000 shares of the Company's common stock with a fair market value of $15,903,000. The purchase included a 66.67% working interest in three licenses located in the Cooper Basin, in the State of South Australia, the remaining 37.5% working interest in Vic P60 in the Gippsland Basin, in the State of Victoria, and a 100% working interest in three permits in the Barrow Sub-Basin, in the State of Western Australia.
 
Onshore – The Cooper Basin
 
On June 11, 2008 the Australian government consolidated two of the Company’s oil and gas licenses in the Cooper Basin (PEL 108 and PEL 109) into one license (PEL 444). In connection with that consolidation, the government also extended the license term and associated work programs for PEL 444 and PEL 112 by five years. During August 2010, the Company applied for, and was granted, an additional extension of these licenses.
 
 
F-12

 
 
The Company is currently party to a contingent agreement with Holloman Oil & Gas Limited (“HOG”), an Australian corporation and affiliate of the Company, which potentially grants HOG its working interest in PEL 112. The assignment of the working interest in PEL 112 is expressly conditioned upon the negotiation and execution of a definitive farmin agreement between the Company and HOG. If the agreement is pursued, HOG agrees to:
 
 
·
Fund the costs required to drill, and if warranted, complete three wells on the PEL 112 within the timeframes required by the permit work programs; and
 
 
·
Pay the Company a 1.33% overriding royalty on gross revenues generated from the sale of any oil or gas produced from wells drilled on the PEL 112.
 
Under the contingent agreement, the Company has the right to earn up to a 33.33% working interest in the PEL 112 license by paying, prior to the time any well has reached 50% of the expected total depth, the Company’s proportionate share of the cost of drilling any of the wells involved in the initial three-well drilling program. The Company also has the right to earn up to a one-third working interest in any future wells drilled on the PEL 112 by paying its proportionate share of the cost of drilling. Two of the Company’s officers/directors are officers of its controlling shareholder, Holloman Corporation, which holds a 100% interest in HOG.
 
Offshore – Barrow Sub-Basin and Vic P60
 
During 2009, the Company relinquished all of its offshore oil and gas permits. The Barrow Sub-Basin permits (WA-372P, WA-373P and WA-395P) obligated the Company to drill 12 offshore exploration wells during the period from June 2010 to June 2013. The Vic P60 permit obligated the Company to drill an additional exploration well by October 28, 2010. Both the Barrow and Vic P60 permits also required the acquisition of significant amounts of 3D seismic data. The Company relinquished its Barrow Sub-Basin permits effective June 30, 2009. As a result of the application of a full cost pool "ceiling test", the Company determined that the carrying value of its pool of unproven properties was impaired to the extent of the carrying value of those permits. Accordingly, it recognized a loss on the impairment of oil and gas assets of $2,908,010 during that period. Oil and gas properties as of June 30, 2009, were reduced by the same amount to reflect the impairment of the Barrow permits.
 
The Company relinquished its Vic P60 permit effective December 28, 2009. As a result of the application of a full cost pool "ceiling test", the Company determined that the carrying value of its pool of unproven properties was impaired to the extent of the carrying value of that permit. Accordingly, it recognized a loss on the impairment of oil and gas assets of $2,851,684 during that period. This loss included the write-off of a $639,487 deposit paid in connection with the acquisition of Vic P60. Oil and gas properties and deposit on acquisition as of December 31, 2009, were reduced by the same amounts, respectively, to reflect the impairment of the Vic P60 permit.
 
In connection with the Company’s 2009 offshore relinquishments, the carrying value of oil and gas properties was also reduced by $1,636,508 in deferred tax gross-up relating to the relinquished permits.
 
5.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
During 2009, the Company repaid advances from its officers, directors and shareholders totaling $1,572,803. Of that amount, $840,000 was repaid in cash, and $732,803 was converted to shares of the Company’s restricted common stock (Note 8).
 
During 2010, fees totaling $291,750 (2009 - $226,812) were paid to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. The fees were incurred as compensation for services rendered in the normal course of operations and were paid at the amount established and agreed to by the related parties.
 
 
F-13

 
 
Effective October 1, 2010, the Company executed an administrative services agreement with its controlling shareholder. Under this agreement, fees of $5,000 per month are payable to Holloman Corporation covering; office and meeting space, supplies, utilities, office equipment, network access and other administrative facilities costs. These fees are payable quarterly in shares of the Company’s restricted common stock at the closing price of the stock on the last trading-day of the applicable monthly billing period. This administrative services agreement can be terminated by either party with 30-days notice. During 2010, the Company recorded $15,000 of office expense and issued 69,445 shares of its common stock as a result of this agreement (Note 8).
 
6.  STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
On August 15, 2009, the Company established a Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan and a Stock Bonus Plan. The Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the “Option Plan”) authorizes the issuance of up to 7,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Under the Stock Bonus Plan up to 300,000 shares (“Bonus Shares”) of the Company’s common stock may be issued to employees, directors, officers, consultants and advisors, provided qualifying services are rendered.
 
At the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, any option may include installment exercise terms such that the option becomes fully exercisable in a series of cumulating portions. Any options granted or shares issued pursuant to the Plans will be forfeited if the "vesting" schedule established at the time of the grant is not met. The Company may at any time, and from time to time, amend, terminate, or suspend one or more of the Plans in any manner they deem appropriate, provided that any amendment, termination or suspension may not adversely affect rights or obligations with respect to options or shares previously granted.

As of December 31, 2010 there was $197,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation under the Option Plan. All of this amount is expected to be recognized during 2011. A total of $1,066,126 and $1,143,377 in non-cash, stock-based compensation has been recognized in the statement of operations during the years 2010 and 2009, respectively, in connection with the Option Plan.
 
On August 15, 2009, the Company issued 200,000 shares of its common stock to officers and directors pursuant to the Stock Bonus Plan. The fair value for shares of common stock given as compensation is the average market price of the stock for the 10-day period preceding the date of grant. The 200,000 Bonus Shares had a value of $0.56 per share at the date of issuance. The Company recognized non-cash management and director’s fees of $112,000 related to the Bonus Shares in the statements of operations.
 
On August 15, 2009, the Company also issued its officers and directors fractional participation in a 2% net revenue interest in wells to be drilled by the Company on its lands in the Cooper basin. These participation units represent a 0.454% interest in the Company’s Cooper Basin revenues, after all royalties, exploration expenses, operating costs and capital investments associated with the Cooper Basin have been recovered. In management’s opinion no value could be assigned to these revenue interests, as any valuation was non-estimable.

7.  PREFERRED SHARES
 
The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, FEH are each authorized to issue 10,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of $0.001 per share. At December 31, 2010, neither the Company nor FEH had any preferred shares outstanding.
 
On August 3, 2007 the Company acquired Endeavor for 9,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred stock and 9,000,000 preferred shares of FEH. Each Series A Preferred share was convertible into one share of the Company’s common stock and was entitled to 1,000 votes on any matter submitted to the Company’s shareholders for approval. The 9,000,000 preferred shares of FEH were, at the option of the holder of the shares, convertible into 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
 
On February 1, 2008 the Company entered into an agreement with its former Chief Executive Officer which provided the Company with the option of exchanging all of the Company’s interest in Endeavor for the Company’s Series A Preferred shares and the Class A Preferred shares of FEH previously issued in connection with the Company’s original acquisition of Endeavor. On February 15, 2008 the option was exercised. As a result, the 6,500 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred stock and the 6,500,000 Class A Preferred shares of FEH were returned to the Company and cancelled and all outstanding shares of Endeavor were transferred to the former CEO (Note 3).
 
At the option of the remaining preferred stockholders, the residual 2,500 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred stock and 2,500,000 preferred shares of FEH were converted into an equivalent number of shares of the Company’s common stock during June 2008.
 
8.  COMMON SHARES
 
The Company is authorized to issue 150,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.001.
 
On May 29, 2009, the Company issued 9,385,935 restricted shares of its common stock in settlement of $938,593 in loans and advances payable. The parties receiving these shares included; Holloman Corporation, a principal shareholder of the Company (6,045,218 shares for debt of $604,520), Open Bay Holdings Ltd., a Company controlled by the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer (747,287 shares for debt of $74,729) and an unrelated party (2,593,430 shares for debt of $259,344) (Note 5).
 
On August 15, 2009, the Company issued 200,000 shares of its common stock with a fair market value of $112,000 as compensation for services under a Stock Bonus Plan (Note 6).
 
On October 6, 2009, the Company issued 500,000 shares of its common stock, with a fair market value of $204,250, to a third party vendor as compensation for advisory and public relations services.
 
During December 2009, the Company sold 1,992,820 shares of common stock in a private placement of investment units to Holloman Corporation, and to certain directors and officers of the Company, and to 3 non-affiliated parties. The investment units were priced at $0.48 each and consisted of one share of the Company’s common stock, and one stock purchase warrant. Each stock warrant entitles the holder to purchase one half share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.80 per share until December 17, 2012. Proceeds from the private placement totaled $956,554, of which $893,000 was paid in cash and $63,554 was a conversion of indebtedness.
 
During December 2010, the Company issued 69,445 shares of its common stock, at an average price of $0.216 per share in connection with the conversion of $15,000 in administrative service fees payable to a wholly owned subsidiary of its controlling shareholder.
 
At December 31, 2010, a total of 25,125,160 share purchase warrants and stock options are issued and outstanding. During the year ended December 31, 2009, 286,201 warrants with a weighted-average exercise price of $3.00 per share expired. No warrants or stock options expired during 2010 and there have been no warrants or stock options exercised or forfeited since inception. The weighted-average remaining life and exercise price of outstanding stock options and warrants at December 31, 2010 were 13.37 months and $1.25, respectively.
 
The fair value of stock warrants issued to purchasers of investment units is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model at the time the stock warrant is granted.

10.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT
 
During March 2011, the Company sold 1,400,002 shares of common stock in a private placement of investment units to Holloman Corporation, and to certain directors, and officers of the Company, and to 1 non-affiliated consultant. The investment units were priced at $0.15 each and consisted of one share of the Company’s common stock, and one stock purchase warrant. Each stock warrant entitles the holder to purchase one half share of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.25 per share until February 14, 2012. Proceeds from the private placement totaled $210,000. Of that amount, $180,000 was paid in cash and $30,000 was a conversion of liabilities.
