ROCKDALE RESOURCES CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2015
 (Unaudited)

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Rockdale Resources Corporation (“we”, “us”, the “Company”) was formed for the purpose of oil and gas exploration, development, and production.  The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s latest Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of operations for a full year. Notes to the consolidated financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year, 2014, as reported in Form 10-K, have been omitted.
 
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows.
 
Management EstimatesThe preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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.
 
Property and Equipment

Full Cost Ceiling Test – Principally due to the decrease in oil prices, for the three months ended June 30, 2015, we reported a non-cash impairment write-down of $668,073 on our oil & gas properties.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
The Company has evaluated all the recent accounting pronouncements through the filing date and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the Company.
 
NOTE 3. GOING CONCERN
 
The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company plans to generate profits by reworking its existing oil or gas wells and drilling additional wells, as needed.  The Company will need to raise funds through either the sale of its securities, issuance of corporate bonds, joint venture agreements and/or bank financing to accomplish its goals.   The Company does not have any commitments or arrangements from any person to provide the Company with any additional capital, at this time.  If additional financing is not available when needed, the Company may need to cease operations.   The Company may not be successful in raising the capital needed to drill and/or rework existing oil wells.  Any additional wells that the Company may drill may be non-productive.  Management believes that actions presently being taken to secure additional funding for the reworking of its existing infrastructure will provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.  Since the Company has an oil producing asset, its goal is to increase the production rate by optimizing its current infrastructure.  The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern; no adjustments to the financial statements have been made to account for this uncertainty.

NOTE 4. EQUITY

Preferred Stock – 1,000,000 shares authorized, none issued or outstanding.
 
Common Stock – During the six month period ending June 30, 2015, the Company sold 1,400,000 shares to private investors as part of a private placement offering.  The shares were sold at a price of $0.10 cents per share and one warrant was also granted to purchase an additional 100,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.12 cents per share at any time prior to August 5, 2018.  

Stock based compensation of $33,778 shares was recorded related to shares issued to David N. Baker, former CEO and Director of the Company, during the three months ended March 31, 2015.

The Company received 400,000 shares from David N. Baker upon his resignation and cancelled the certificates with its transfer agent.

On May 12, 2015 Mr. Leo Womack the Chairman of the Board filed a Form 4 disclosing that an affiliated Family Trust had purchased 1,630,000 shares of common stock from Mr. David Baker in a private transaction at a cash price of $0.08 cents per share. Combined with prior ownership Mr. Womack now controls approximately 10% of the total outstanding common stock of the Company.

On May 1, 2015, the Company commenced a private offering of its securities under Regulation D to accredited investors.  Each unit is comprised of 100,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.10 cents per share and one warrant to purchase an additional 100,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.12 cents per share at any time prior to August 5, 2018.  As of June 30, 2015 fourteen (14) units had been subscribed for and 1,400,000 shares of common stock had been purchased and six (6) units were subscribed for and 600,000 shares were issued for conversion of debt.  Mr. Leo Womack, Chairman of Rockdale Resources, purchased 300,000 shares through the Leo B. Womack Family Trust.  Mr. Lee Lytton, a Director of the Company, purchased 300,000 shares, Mr. Joel Oppenheim, a Director, purchased 300,000 shares and Jovian Petroleum Corporation, a contract operator for the Company, purchased 100,000 shares.  A total of $60,000 in advances from affiliates that was disclosed as a liability in the financial statements as of March 31, 2015 were converted to equity in this offering. The conversion resulted in a $69,107 loss on the conversion.

NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
The Company, as a lessee of oil and gas properties, is subject to various federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to discharge of materials into, and protection of, the environment. These laws and regulations may, among other things, impose liability on the Company for the cost of pollution clean-up resulting from operations and subject the Company to liability for pollution damages. In some instances, the Company may be directed to suspend or cease operations in the affected area.  The Company is not aware of any environmental claims existing as of June 30, 2015, which have not been provided for, or covered by insurance or which may have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. There can be no assurance, however, that current regulatory requirements will not change, or past noncompliance with environmental laws will not be discovered on the Company’s properties.

 
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
This report contains statements which, to the extent that they do not recite historical fact, constitute forward-looking statements. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and may include the words ‘‘may,’’ ‘‘will,’’ ‘‘could,’’ ‘‘should,’’ ‘‘would,’’ ‘‘believe,’’ ‘‘expect,’’ ‘‘anticipate,’’ ‘‘estimate,’’ ‘‘intend,’’ ‘‘plan’’ or other words or expressions of similar meaning. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations about future events. The forward-looking statements include statements that reflect management’s beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations and intentions with respect to our financial condition, results of operations, future performance and business, including statements relating to our business strategy and our current and future development plans.

The potential risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual financial condition, results of operations and future performance to differ materially from those expressed or implied in this report include:

 The sale prices of crude oil;

 The amount of production from oil wells in which we have an interest;

 Lease operating expenses;

 International conflict or acts of terrorism;

 General economic conditions; and

 Other factors disclosed in this report.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, level of activity, performance or achievements. Many factors discussed in this report, some of which are beyond our control, will be important in determining our future performance. Consequently, actual results may differ materially from those that might be anticipated from the forward-looking statements. In light of these and other uncertainties, you should not regard the inclusion of a forward-looking statement in this report as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved, and you should not place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Background

We were incorporated in Colorado on January 16, 2002.

We planned to sell custom framed artwork, art accessories, and interior design consulting. However, we generated only limited revenue since inception and have been inactive since 2008.

In February 2012 we decided it would be in the best interests of our shareholders to no longer pursue our original business plan and, in April 2012 we became active in the exploration and development of oil and gas properties.

On May 4, 2012 we amended our articles of incorporation and changed our name to Rockdale Resources Corporation.

On June 11, 2015, the board of directors increased the size of the board of directors from two to three members by adding Joel Oppenheim to the board of directors to fill the newly created vacancy. Joel Oppenheim has owned and operated the Oppenheim Group since 1991. The Oppenheim Group is a real estate consulting firm that has represented multiple Fortune 10 and Fortune 100 Companies on their commercial real estate needs throughout the United States.
 
 
Plan of Operation

We evaluate undeveloped and/or underdeveloped oil and gas prospects and participate in drilling activities on those prospects, which, in the opinion of management, are favorable for the production of oil or gas.  If, through our review, a geographical area indicates geological and economic potential, we will attempt to acquire leases or other interests in the area.  We may then attempt to sell portions of our leasehold interests in a prospect to third parties, thus sharing the risks and rewards of the exploration and development of the prospect with the other owners.  One or more wells may be drilled on a prospect, and if the results indicate the presence of sufficient oil and gas reserves, additional wells may be drilled on the prospect.

Our strategy is to acquire other similar prospects in or adjacent to existing fields with further development potential and minimum risk in the same area.

We may also acquire a working interest in one or more prospects from others and participate with the other working interest owners in drilling, and if warranted, completing oil or gas wells on a prospect.

Our activities will primarily be dependent upon available financing.

Oil and gas leases are considered real property.  Title to properties which we may acquire will be subject to landowner’s royalties, overriding royalties, carried working and other similar interests and contractual arrangements customary in the oil and gas industry, to liens for current taxes not yet due, liens for amounts owing to persons operating wells, and to other encumbrances.  As is customary in the industry, in the case of undeveloped properties little investigation of record title will be made at the time of acquisition (other than a preliminary review of local records).  However, drilling title opinions may be obtained before commencement of drilling operations.

Minerva-Rockdale Field

The Minerva-Rockdale Field, which is located approximately 30 miles Northeast of Austin, was first discovered in 1921 and is approximately 50 square miles in size. The main producing formation for this field is the Upper Cretaceous Navarro Group of sands and shale. The Navarro is typically subdivided into several producing zones from the uppermost “A” and “B” sands to the lower “C” and “D” sands. The “B” sand is the primary producing zone. These sands are commonly fine grained and poorly sorted and were deposited close to a shoreline during a cycle of marine regression.

In April 2013, the Company entered into a lease pertaining to a 423 acre tract in Milam County, Texas, which is adjacent to the Company’s original 200 acre lease.  The Company issued 500,000 shares of its common stock as consideration for a 100% working interest (75% net revenue interest) in such lease.
 
In June 2013 we drilled two wells at approximately $120,000 each.
 
In August 2013, we became an oil and gas operator and took over the operating of 100% of our wells. We will work independently with vendors to drill wells on our lease with the supervision of the Company’s director, Matthew Ferguson.
 
In August 2013 we drilled one well at a cost of approximately $120,000 and converted one existing well to an injection well. 
 
On October 2, 2013, the Company executed a Paid Up Oil and Gas Lease (the “New Lease”) between Noack Farms, LLC (“Noack”), as Lessor, and the Company, as Lessee.  Under the New Lease, Noack leased to the Company 623.29 acres in Milam County, Texas, for the purpose of exploring for, developing, producing, and marketing oil and gas, along with all hydrocarbon and hydrocarbon substances produced in association therewith.  The New Lease provides for royalties of 1/6th of the production from the leased premises to be paid to Noack.
 
The land described in the New Lease was subject to a pre-existing Paid Up Oil and Gas Lease dated June 20, 2011, from Noack, as Lessor, to Ardent 1, LLC, as Lessee (the “Prior Lease”).  The New Lease provided that it was subordinate to the Prior Lease, and that it would not become effective until the termination or release of the Prior Lease.
 
By virtue of a series of assignments, the Prior Lease previously had been assigned to the Company as Lessee effective as of March 20, 2012.  (The assignment to the Company is filed as Exhibit 10.7 to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 14, 2013, and the Prior Lease is filed as Exhibit 10.8 to such Quarterly Report.)  All of the Company’s current wells are drilled on the 623.29 acres that constitute the leased premises under the New Lease and the Prior Lease.
 
 
On October 24, 2013, the Company filed a release of the Prior Lease.
 
In January 2014 the Company drilled one well at a cost of approximately $120,000.
 
In March 2014 the Company drilled three additional wells but did not complete them by March 31, 2014.  Total cost per well is approximately $120,000.
 
The cost to drill and complete any remaining wells on the 623 acre lease will be approximately $120,000 per well.
 
As of March 31, 2015, the Company has sixteen wells drilled and completed, of which thirteen wells are currently online and producing at a rate of approximately 30bbls of oil and 64bbls of water per day.

If, in our sole discretion, the estimated future production from wells drilled on the leases in the Minerva-Rockdale Field does not warrant further drilling, we plan to drill wells in other areas.

On April 24, 2015, the Company executed a letter of intent (“LOI”) with SUDS Properties, LLC, a special purpose company set up under Jovian group of companies.  Two provisions of the LOI are to bring in a new management team as well as expand operations to own and operate wells in Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Texas. The related agreement is pending shareholder approval.
 
The company continues with the rework of the wells at Minerva/Rockdale field and has implemented a paraffin maintenance program.

An agreement is in process to acquire a small working interest and obtain operational control of a key oil lease near Roswell, New Mexico. This lease includes approximately 130 existing wells on 4,000 acres and significant proven reserves.

The Company intends to uplist onto the OTCQX stock exchange upon the successfully completion of the acquisition of working interest in the SUDS oilfield in Oklahoma. The OTXQX is a blue sky exchange that provides enhanced transparency and allows otherwise restricted investors to purchase shares.

Critical Accounting Policies and New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 to the financial statements included as part of our Annual Report  on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 30, 2015 for a description of our critical accounting policies and the potential impact of the adoption of any new accounting pronouncements.
 

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures.

(a)           We maintain a system of controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“1934 Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the 1934 Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive and Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  As of June 30, 2015, our Principal Executive and Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive and Financial Officer concluded that there was a material weakness related to our disclosure controls and procedures were they were not effective at that date. This issue included inadequate month-end closing review to ensure all required analysis and entries have been performed and entered.  Subsequently, management is ensuring these additional procedures are performed.

(b)           Changes in Internal Controls.  There were significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2015 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  These changes included the installation of new accounting software, as well as additional accounting procedures such as a purchase order system, invoice reconciliation on a daily, weekly and monthly basis.  All data is also now being backed up on a daily basis.
