HOMELAND RESOURCES, LTD.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2013
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, 2013, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on October 29, 2013. 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, 2013, our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $1,387,144 and for the three months ended October 31, 2013, our net loss was $72,269. Our results of operations have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $666,023 and a total stockholders’ deficit of $455,853 as of October 31, 2013. We have participated in the drilling of test wells on undeveloped properties. We plan further participation in a drilling program for the remainder of calendar 2013 and during the remainder of the fiscal year. It is difficult to anticipate our capital requirements for the remainder of the fiscal year as significant drilling activities will continue. 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, 2013, our accounts receivable amounted to $20,000, 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.
Concentrations - The Company received 100% of its revenues from the operator of its oil and gas properties during the fiscal quarters ended October 31, 2013 and 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.

HOMELAND RESOURCES, LTD.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
OCTOBER 31, 2013
Fair Value - The carrying amount reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and accounts payable – related party approximates fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets - The Company has adopted FASB ASC 360, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” which requires that long-lived assets to be held be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. ASC 360 establishes a single auditing model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale.
Income Taxes - The Company records income taxes under the asset and liability method prescribed by FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the financial statement amounts and the tax basis of certain assets and liabilities by applying statutory rates in effect when the temporary differences are expected to reverse. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Based upon the level of historical losses and the level of uncertainty with respect to future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, a full valuation allowance has been provided.
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.
NOTE 4 – RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. This ASU requires the Company to disclose both net and gross information about assets and liabilities that have been offset. The disclosures under this new guidance are required to be provided retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Company was required to implement this guidance effective for the first quarter of fiscal 2014. The adoption of ASU 2011-11 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In July 2013, the FASB issued, ASU No. 2013-11 "Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists" (“ASU 2013-11”). ASU 2013-11 addresses the diversity in practice that exists for the balance sheet presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. ASU 2013-11 requires that an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be presented in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. ASU No. 2013-11 is effective for the Company’s fiscal quarter ending October 31, 2014. ASU 2013-11 impacts balance sheet presentation only. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new rule but believes the balance sheet impact will not be material.
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 provided 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. On May 14, 2013, drilling commenced on the first of an anticipated 8-well Phase-I exploration program. Of the first five wells drilled in connection with this Phase-I exploration program four have been deemed to be non-economic. As per the terms of the initial purchase agreement, we will participate in all eight wells to be drilled in the Phase-I exploration program.
As a component of the initial Washita Bend purchase agreement, we acquired from the seller a 5% carried working interest to casing point in the first eight wells drilled on this prospect area. We have committed to participate in the drilling of the initial eight wells in the Phase-1 exploration program. Should we fail to participate in the drilling of any of the Phase-1 wells, we are subject to forfeit our right to our share of seismic data gathered.
2010–1 Drilling Program
In April 2010, we acquired a 5% working interest in the 2010-1 Drilling Program located in Garvin County, Oklahoma for total buy-in costs of $39,163. The drilling program prospect area is located in Garvin County, Oklahoma. Of the four wells in which we participated related to this program three remain in production. Subsequent to October 31, 2013 we conveyed our interests in one of the producing wells to the operator of the project. (Note 11)
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, 2013 and 2012, 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 $18,098 and $1,867 for the three-month periods ended October 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

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, 2013. 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 provided 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. On May 14, 2013, drilling commenced on the first of an anticipated 8-well Phase-I exploration program. Of the first five wells drilled in connection with this Phase-I exploration program four have been deemed to be non-economic. As per the terms of the initial purchase agreement, we will participate in all eight wells to be drilled in the Phase-I exploration program.
As a component of the initial Washita Bend purchase agreement, we acquired from the seller a 5% carried working interest to casing point in the first eight wells drilled on this prospect area. We have committed to participate in the drilling of the initial eight wells in the Phase-1, exploration program. Should we fail to participate in the drilling of any of the Phase-1 wells, we are subject to forfeit our right to our share of seismic data gathered.
2010–1 Drilling Program
In April 2010, we acquired a 5% working interest in the 2010-1 Drilling Program located in Garvin County, Oklahoma for total buy-in costs of $39,163. The drilling program prospect area is located in Garvin County, Oklahoma. As of October 31, 2013, the Miss Jenny #1-8, the Jack #1-13 and the Gehrke #1-24 had been placed into and remained in production. Subsequent to October 31, 2013, we conveyed our interest in the Miss Jenny #1-8 to the operator of the project.
Loans
On August 12, 2013 and September 6, 2013, we borrowed $45,000 and $30,000, respectively, from Radium Ventures Corp. The borrowings are two year demand notes and accrue interest at 6.5% annually.
On October 11, 2013 and October 21, 2013, we borrowed $7,500 and $7,500, respectively, from two lenders - $7,500 from our Chief Financial Officer, Paul D. Maniscalco, and $7,500 from an individual shareholder, in order to pay expenditures relating to our share of the drilling programs. The short term notes bear interest at 15%, and principal and interest are due and payable in six equal installments commencing on February 1, 2014. The notes are convertible into shares of our common stock at $.02 per share (a) at the election of the noteholders, (b) at any time
11
after maturity, or (c) upon the event of default. In connection with this embedded conversion feature we have recorded a charge of $15,000 to interest expense during the quarter ended October 31, 2013.
Results of Operations
Three months ended October 31, 2013 compared to the three months ended October 31, 2012.
Revenues - We recognized $31,258 in revenues during the three months ended October 31, 2013, compared with $10,983 for the three months ended October 31, 2012. The increase results primarily from temporary decreases in 2012 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, 2013, we incurred operating expenses of $73,182 as compared to $62,249 during the three months ended October 31, 2012, resulting in an increase of $10,933. The increase in direct costs is primarily attributable to the following:
·
|
increases in depreciation, depletion and accretion to $18,170 as compared to $1,933 in the corresponding prior period.
|
These increases were partially offset by:
·
|
decreases in general and administrative expenses to $42,395 as compared to $45,799 in the corresponding prior period, which related primarily to decreases in legal expense; and
|
·
|
decreases in lease operating expenses to $2,117 from $4,017 in the corresponding prior period.
|
Other expenses – We incurred $30,345 in other expenses during the three months ended October 31, 2013 as compared to $17,441 during the three months ended October 31, 2012 resulting in an increase of $12,904. The increase in other expenses is attributable to interest expense on additional demand loan borrowings, including a $15,000 charge related to the embedded beneficial conversion feature, partially offset by decreased amortization of deferred financing costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of October 31, 2013, we had cash of $4,336, compared to cash of $5,989 as of July 31, 2013. Our working capital deficit at October 31, 2013 was $1,387,144, compared to $1,220,532 as of July 31, 2013. The increase in our working capital deficit relates primarily to decreased cash balances resulting from losses incurred through operations. The statement of cash flows reflects cash of $69,017 used for the purchase of oil and gas properties, and a total of $90,000 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 fiscal year 2014. As of October 31, 2013, our cash balance was $4,336, and such cash will not be sufficient to meet our requirements under our existing agreements. The ability to draw on our loan facility with Radium expired on December 31, 2011. Two of our notes payable in the amounts of $55,000 and $50,000 have matured and are due to Radium and $540,000 of the total amount drawn on our credit facility which were due 36 months from initial funding are past due. Although we are in negotiations with Radium to extend our credit instruments and despite the fact that the lender has advanced us additional funds, there is no assurance that we will reach such an agreement before we are required to make any expenditures 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 potential drilling program costs, we will be in default of our agreements with the operator of our properties. In such event of default, we may incur significant liabilities, and potentially forfeit our rights to our acquired interests. The conveyance of the interests in one of our producing wells subsequent to October 31, 2013 may place additional constraints on our cash.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of October 31, 2013.

Going Concern
In its report prepared in connection with our fiscal year 2013 financial statements, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph stating that, because we had an accumulated deficit of $593,754, a working capital deficit of $1,220,532 and a stockholders’ deficit of $398,584 at July 31, 2013, there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. At October 31, 2013, our accumulated deficit was $666,023 and our stockholder’s deficit amounted to $455,853. 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 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.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), are our controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our Management including our President and our Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act requires us to carry out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of October 31, 2013, being the date of our most recently completed fiscal year end. This evaluation was conducted by President and Chief Financial Officer. Based on this evaluation we have concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective since the following significant deficiency:
·
|
There is an inherent lack of segregation of duties with respect to certain transactions involving cash and accounts payable.
|
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.
13
Our President and Chief Financial Officer have assessed the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting as of October 31, 2013. In making this assessment, the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In conducting the evaluation, Our President and Chief Financial Officer considered advice from our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, StarkSchenkein, LLP (“StarkSchenkein”). StarkSchenkein indicates that there may be significant deficiencies in our internal controls over financial reporting. Specifically, the following potential deficiency has been noted:
·
|
We do not have proper segregation of duties with respect to certain transactions involving cash and accounts payable.
|
As a result of this deficiency in our internal controls, Our President and Chief Financial 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 Executive Officers also considered various mitigating factors in making this determination. Officers 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, 2014, we will attempt to implement appropriate changes as they are identified, including changes to remediate the significant deficiencies in our internal controls. There can be no guarantee that we will be successful in making these changes as they may be considered cost prohibitive.
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, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
