NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2012
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The interim financial statements of Homeland Resources Ltd. (“we,” “us,” “our,” “Homeland” or the “Company”) are unaudited and contain all adjustments (consisting primarily of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year or for previously reported periods due in part, but not limited to, interest rates, drilling risks, geological risks, the timing of acquisitions, and our ability to obtain additional capital. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in Homeland’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 29, 2012. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
NOTE 2–GOING CONCERN
As of October 31, 2012, our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $930,601 and for the three months ended October 31, 2012, our net loss was $68,707. Our results of operations have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $328,436 and a total stockholders’ deficit of $213,266 as of October 31, 2012. We have participated in the drilling of test wells on undeveloped properties. We plan further participation in drilling and seismic operations for the remainder of calendar 2012 and during the remainder of the fiscal year. It is difficult to anticipate our capital requirements for the remainder of the fiscal year as we participate in a seismic program wherein significant drilling activities may commence in the near future. We will need to raise equity or borrow additional capital to fund our continued participation in planned activities. If additional financing is not available, we may be compelled to reduce the scope of our business activities. If we are unable to fund our operating cash flow needs and planned capital investments, it may be necessary to sell all or a portion of our interests in our oil and gas properties.
NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Accounts Receivable – Accounts receivable consists of amounts receivable from oil and gas sold from our well interests. As of October 31, 2012, our accounts receivable amounted to $7,000, all of which is due from one party, the operator of our oil and gas properties. Management believes this amount to be fully collectible; we will continue to monitor amounts receivable for collectability on a periodic basis.
Asset Retirement Obligation– Asset retirement obligations associated with tangible long-lived assets are accounted for in accordance with ASC 410, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.” The estimated fair value of the future costs associated with dismantlement, abandonment and restoration of oil and gas properties is recorded generally upon the completion of a well. The net estimated costs are discounted to present values using a risk adjusted rate over the estimated economic life of the oil and gas properties. Such costs are capitalized as part of the related asset. The asset is depleted on the units-of-production method on a field-by-field basis. The liability is periodically adjusted to reflect: (1) new liabilities incurred; (2) liabilities settled during the period; (3) accretion expense; and (4) revisions to estimated future cash flow requirements. The accretion expense is recorded as a component of depreciation, depletion, accretion and amortization expense in the accompanying statements of operations.
Revenue Recognition– The Company recognizes oil and gas revenue when production is sold at a fixed or determinable price, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred and title has transferred, and collectability is reasonably assured.

HOMELAND RESOURCES, LTD.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2012
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 under different assumptions or conditions.
NOTE 4 – RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Accounting standards-setting organizations frequently issue new or revised accounting rules. We regularly review all new pronouncements that have been issued to determine their impact, if any, on our financial statements.
There were various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 5 – (LOSS) PER SHARE
We do not report fully diluted loss per common share as the effect would be anti-dilutive.

Washita Bend 3D Exploration Project
In April 2010, we acquired a 5% working interest in the Washita Bend 3D Exploration Project for a total buy-in cost of $46,250. The project provides for the acquisition of approximately 135 miles of 3D seismic data to identify drillable prospects in a study area comprising 119,680 acres in Oklahoma. The Washita prospect area is located in Cleveland, Garvin, McCain and Pottawatomie Counties, Oklahoma. As of October 31, 2012, the shooting of seismic data and interpretation had been completed. As of October 31, 2012, the operator has indicated that additional prospect areas may be included in the program. Drilling will commence when all prospects have been identified. Drilling is anticipated to start in early calendar 2013 and the project is anticipated to include a minimum of ten prospect wells. The Company will be carried by the seller, in a 10% working interest to casing point in the first eight wells in the Washita Bend prospect area.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2012
2010–1 Drilling Program
In April 2010, we acquired a 5% working interest in a drilling program located in Garvin County, Oklahoma for a total buy-in cost of $39,163. The Company agreed to participate in the drilling operations to casing point in the initial test well of each prospect. The before casing point interest shall be 6.25% and the after casing point interest shall be 5.00%.
As of October 31, 2012, we have participated in the drilling of four test wells. Of the four wells, one was abandoned in October 2010 and three have been placed into production.
Impairment
Under the full cost method, the Company is subject to a ceiling test. This ceiling test determines whether there is any impairment to the proved properties. The impairment amount represents the excess of capitalized costs over the present value, discounted at 10%, of the estimated future net cash flows from the proven oil and gas reserves plus the cost, or estimated fair market value. There was no impairment cost for the three-month periods ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Depletion
Under the full cost method, depletion is computed on the units of production method based on proved reserves, or upon reasonable estimates where proved reserves have not yet been established due to the recent commencement of production. Depletion expense recognized was $1,867 and $7,566 for the three-month periods ended October 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
NOTE 7 – NOTES PAYABLE
The Company has recorded the following notes payable:

OCTOBER 31, 2012
NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Although not completely estimable as of October 31, 2012, based on the terms of the Company’s original agreements with the operator, the Company anticipates additional expenditures related to its share of the drilling program during the remainder of the fiscal year, and that additional expenditures related to its seismic program may be significant during the remainder of the fiscal year as drilling may commence on the prospect area. In addition, should the Company choose to terminate its involvement in the seismic program, the Company may incur significant additional liabilities per the terms of its initial agreement with the operator.
NOTE 10 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
As of October 31, 2012, the Company owed $176,354 to a related party. During the three months ended October 31, 2012, the Company incurred $10,500 in consulting expense with the related party. The Company made no cash payments to related parties during the three months ended October 31, 2012.
The Company has evaluated all transactions through the date of issuance of these financial statements and noted there are no subsequent events that would require disclosure.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
General
Our original business plan was to proceed with the exploration of the Home Ranch Prospect to determine whether there were commercially exploitable reserves of minerals located on the property comprising such mineral claims. In fiscal 2010, we determined that our ability to explore for minerals on these claims had become economically non-feasible and we therefore suspended our activities on the Home Ranch Prospect indefinitely in order to focus on our oil and gas interests. We did not conduct any operations or exploration activities on the Home Ranch Prospect during the three-month period ended October 31, 2012. At the time of this report, we do not know when or if we will proceed with the Home Ranch Prospect.
In April 2010, we acquired working interests in a seismic exploration program as well as a drilling program in oil and gas properties located in Oklahoma, as further described below. Our present plan of operation is to continue to invest in oil and gas properties.
Oil and Gas Properties
“Bbl” is defined herein to mean one stock tank barrel, or 42 U.S. gallons liquid volume, used in reference to oil or other liquid hydrocarbons.
“Mcf” is defined herein to mean one thousand cubic feet of natural gas at standard atmospheric conditions.
Washita Bend 3D Exploration Project
In April 2010, we acquired a 5% working interest in the Washita Bend 3D Exploration Project for a total buy-in cost of $46,250. The project provides for the acquisition of approximately 135 miles of 3D seismic data to identify drillable prospects in a study area comprising 119,680 acres in Oklahoma. The Washita prospect area is located in Cleveland, Garvin, McCain and Pottawatomie Counties, Oklahoma. As of October 31, 2012, the shooting of seismic data and interpretation had been completed. As of October 31, 2012, the operator has indicated that additional prospect areas may be included in the program. Drilling will commence when all prospects have been identified. Drilling is anticipated to start in early calendar 2013 and the project is anticipated to include a minimum of ten prospect wells. The Company will be carried by the seller, in a 10% working interest to casing point in the first eight wells in the Washita Bend prospect area.
2010–1 Drilling Program
In April 2010, we acquired a 5% working interest in a Drilling Program located in Garvin County, Oklahoma. We have participated in the drilling of four exploratory wells on the prospect acreage. Of the four wells in which we had participated, as of October 31, 2012, three were in production and one was abandoned
Loans
We had no borrowings during the three months ended October 31, 2012.
Results of Operations
Three months ended October 31, 2012 compared to the three months ended October 31, 2011.
Revenues - We recognized $10,983 in revenues during the three months ended October 31, 2012, compared with $60,522 for the three months ended October 31, 2011. The decrease results primarily from temporary decreases in production resulting from production limitations imposed by the State of Oklahoma. During October 2012, these production limits began to expire and we noted an increase in our production for that month. Permanent decreases in production levels were noted resulting from normal decline curves in the wells.
Expenses - During the three months ended October 31, 2012, we incurred operating expenses of $62,249 as compared to $62,126 during the three months ended October 31, 2011, resulting in an increase of $123. The
10
increase in direct costs is primarily attributable to the following:
·
|
increases in general and administrative expenses to $45,799 as compared to $42,253 in the corresponding prior period, which related primarily to increases in accounting and audit fees offset by decreases in legal expense; and
|
·
|
increases in related party consulting expense to $10,500 as compared to $7,500 in the corresponding prior period
|
These increases were partially offset by:
·
|
depreciation, depletion and accretion expense of $1,933 as compared to $7,627 in the corresponding prior period; and
|
·
|
decreased lease operating expenses to $4,017 from $4,746 in the corresponding prior period.
|
Other expenses – We incurred $17,441 in other expenses during the three months ended October 31, 2012 as compared to $18,812 during the three months ended October 31, 2011 resulting in a decrease of $1,371. The decrease in other expenses is attributable to decreased amortization of deferred financing costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of October 31, 2012, we had cash of $89,838, compared to cash of $143,552 as of July 31, 2012. Our working capital deficit at October 31, 2012 was $930,601, compared to $856,831 as of July 31, 2012. The increase in our working capital deficit relates primarily to decreased cash balances resulting from decreases in revenue generated through operations. The statement of cash flows reflects cash of $10,855 used for the purchase of oil and gas properties, and a total of $nil of cash provided by financing transactions.
We anticipate that we may be required to make additional expenditures relating to our share of the drilling programs during the remainder of the fiscal year. While we have approximately $90,000 of cash currently, such cash may not be sufficient to meet our requirements under our existing agreements. Our loan facility with Radium expired on December 31, 2011. Although we are in negotiations with Radium to extend such loan facility, there is no assurance that an agreement can be finalized before we are required to make any expenditure for these drilling programs in excess of what we hold in cash. If we exhaust all our cash, are unable to timely arrange for new financing, and do not pay our share of drilling program costs, we will be in default of our agreements. In such event, we may incur significant liabilities per our initial agreement with the operator, forfeit our rights to our interest and be forced to impair the interest.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of October 31, 2012.
Going Concern
In its report prepared in connection with our fiscal year 2012 financial statements, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph stating that, because we had an accumulated deficit of $259,728 a working capital deficit of $856,831 and a stockholders’ deficit of $144,558 at July 31, 2012, there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. At October 31, 2012, our accumulated deficit was $328,436 and our stockholder’s deficit amounted to $213,266. Our continued existence will depend in large part upon our ability to raise sufficient additional capital adequate to fund our participation in drilling and seismic programs through debt and/or equity offerings. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Forward Looking Statements
Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as statements made by us in periodic press releases and oral statements made by our officials to analysts and shareholders in the course of presentations about the Company, constitute “forward-looking statements.” Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be
11
materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward looking statements. Such factors include, among other things: (1) the prices of oil and gas; (2) general economic and business conditions; (3) interest rate changes; (4) the relative stability of the debt and equity markets; (5) government regulations particularly those related to the natural resources industries; (6) required accounting changes; (7) disputes or claims regarding our property interests; and (8) other factors over which we have little or no control.
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our sole officer has assessed the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of October 31, 2012. In making this assessment, management used the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In conducting his evaluation, our sole officer considered advice from our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, StarkSchenkein, LLP (“StarkSchenkein”), that based on several minor corrections to our financial statements and related disclosures proposed by StarkSchenkein, there may be material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. Specifically, the following deficiencies are noted:
·
|
We do not have an Audit Committee. Although we are not legally required to have one, this means that we do not have entity control over our financial statements.
|
·
|
While our external consultants provide sufficient documentation of our financial statements preparation and review procedures, our sole officer must rely on such documentation.
|
·
|
We do not have proper segregation of duties for the preparation of our financial statements, resulting in journal entries being prepared and approved by the same person and lack of entity control over the preparation of financial statements.
|
As a result of these deficiencies in our internal controls, our sole officer concluded further that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures may not be effective and that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective.
Our sole officer also considered various mitigating factors in making his determination. Our sole officer also noted that we are still evaluating and implementing changes in our internal controls in response to the requirements of Sarbanes Oxley §404. During fiscal year ending July 31, 2013, we will continue to implement appropriate changes as they are identified, including changes to remediate material weaknesses in our internal controls.
Changes In Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
In connection with the evaluation of our internal controls during our last fiscal quarter, our sole officer has concluded that there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
