NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
This summary of accounting policies for Buckeye Oil & Gas, Inc. (an exploration stage company) is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial statements. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in U.S. dollars and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States on a going concern basis. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Buckeye Oil & Gas (Canada), Inc..
Organization
Buckeye Oil & Gas, Inc. (an exploration stage company) (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Florida on May 11, 2010 under the name Benefit Solutions Outsourcing Corp.
On May 19, 2011 the Board of Directors and majority shareholder of the Company approved a change to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation which affected a 17 for one forward stock split of our issued and outstanding common stock, changed the name of the company to “Buckeye Oil & Gas, Inc.”, and changed the business of the Company to oil and gas exploration. The changes became effective at the close of business on June 1, 2011. The forward stock split was distributed to all shareholders of record on March 31, 2011. No cash was paid or distributed as a result of the forward stock split and no fractional shares were issued. All fractional shares which would otherwise be required to
be issued as a result of the stock split were rounded up to the nearest whole share. There was no change in the par value of our common stock.
On June 2, 2011, Jamie Mills, the principal shareholder of the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement which provided for the sale of his 38,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Shares”) to Ravi Dhaddey (who purchased 32,900,000 of the Shares) and Pol Brisset (who purchased 5,100,000 of the Shares). Combined, the Shares acquired by Messrs. Dhaddey and Brisset represented, at that time, 65.07% of the issued and outstanding share capital of the Company on a fully-diluted basis. In connection with such purchase, Mr. Mills cancelled the other 115,000,000 shares in the Company which he had owned.
Effective as of June 2, 2011, in connection with the acquisition of the Shares, Pol Brisset was appointed a director of the Company upon the resignation of Jamie Mills from his positions as the sole officer and director of the Company. The Board of Directors of the Company elected Pol Brisset as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and Manny Dhinsa as Secretary and Director.
On June 23, 2011 the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of a private Canadian business owned by the Company’s principal executive officer called Buckeye Oil & Gas (Canada) Inc. (“Buckeye Canada”), a company incorporated in Alberta, Canada. The purchase price paid for the shares of Buckeye Canada was $400,000, which was paid by the issuance to Pol Brisset, the Company's principal officer and a director, of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company. As a result of the acquisition, Buckeye Canada became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
Nature of Operations
The Company has no products or services as of August 31, 2011. We are engaged in the acquisition, exploration and if warranted and feasible, the development of exploration of oil and gas properties. On June 23, 2011, the Company acquired an interest in its first oil and gas property (notes 2 and 3).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Interim Reporting
The unaudited financial information furnished herein reflects all adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to fairly state the financial position of Buckeye Oil & Gas, Inc. and the results of its operations for the periods presented. This report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read or have access to the audited financial statements for the preceding fiscal year and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair
presentation may be determined in that context. Accordingly, footnote disclosure, which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011 has been omitted. The results of operations for the three-month period ended August 31, 2011 are not necessary indicative of results for the entire year ending May 31, 2012.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in US dollars and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company only recently commenced its oil and gas exploration activities. The Company has not realized any revenue from its present operations. During the three-months ended August 31, 2011, the Company incurred a net loss of $11,646. Since inception on May 11, 2010 the Company has an accumulated deficit of $33,256 to August 31, 2011. These
conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to develop its oil and gas properties and ultimately achieve profitable operations and to generate sufficient cash flow from financing and operations to meet its obligations as they become payable. The Company expects that it will need approximately $877,000 to fund its operations during the next twelve months which will include drilling expenses, well completion costs, and the costs associated with maintaining an office. Current cash on hand is not sufficient to fund operations for the next twelve months. Management has plans to seek additional capital through private placements and public offering of its
common stock in the future. Although there are no assurances that management’s plans will be realized, management believes that the Company will be able to continue operations in the future. Accordingly, no adjustment relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and the classification of liabilities has been made to the accompanying financial statements in anticipation of the Company not being able to continue as a going concern.
Management’s Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these financial statements and notes. Significant areas requiring the use of estimates relate to accrued liabilities, asset retirement obligation, and the impairment of long-lived assets. Management believes the estimates utilized in preparing these financial statements are reasonable and prudent and are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Foreign Currency
The Company has oil and gas property interests in Canada and as a result incurs transactions in Canadian dollars. The Company translates its Canadian dollar balances to US dollars in the following manner: assets and liabilities have been translated using the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. The Company’s results of operations have been translated using average rates.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company has no off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. The Company maintains the majority of its cash balances with one financial institution in the form of a demand deposit.
Loss per Share
Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The Company did not have any dilutive instruments outstanding at August 31, 2011.
Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income (loss) is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners.
Income Taxes
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The book values of cash, prepaid expenses, and accounts payable approximate their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value hierarchy under GAAP distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three levels:
•
|
Level one — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
|
•
|
Level two — Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
|
•
|
Level three — Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.
|
Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. We evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Oil and Gas Property Payments and Exploration Costs
The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for natural gas and oil operations. Under the full cost method all costs incurred in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural gas and oil reserves are initially capitalized into cost centers on a country-by-country basis. The Company’s current cost center is located in Canada. Such costs include land acquisition costs, geological and geophysical expenditures, carrying charges on non-producing properties, costs of drilling and overhead charges directly related to acquisition, exploration and development activities.
Costs capitalized, together with the costs of production equipment, are depleted and amortized on the unit-of-production method based on the estimated net proved reserves, as determined by independent petroleum engineers. The Company has adopted revised oil and gas reserve estimation and disclosure requirements. The primary impact of the new disclosures is to conform the definition of proved reserves with the SEC Modernization of Oil and Gas Reporting rules, which were issued by the SEC at the end of 2008. The accounting standards update revised the definition of proved oil and gas reserves to require that the average, first-day-of-the-month price during the 12-month period before the end of the year
rather than the year-end price, must be used when estimating whether reserve quantities are economical to produce. This same 12-month average price is also used in calculating the aggregate amount of (and changes in) future cash inflows related to the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows. The percentage of total reserve volumes produced during the year is multiplied by the net capitalized investment plus future estimated development costs in those reserves. Costs of acquiring and evaluating unproved properties are initially excluded from depletion calculations. These unevaluated properties are assessed periodically to ascertain whether impairment has occurred. When proved reserves are assigned or the property is considered to be impaired, the cost of the property or the amount of the impairment is added to costs subject to depletion
calculations.
Under full cost accounting rules, capitalized costs, less accumulated amortization and related deferred income taxes, shall not exceed an amount (the ceiling) equal to the sum of: (i) the after tax present value of estimated future net revenues computed by applying current prices of oil and gas reserves to estimated future production of proved oil and gas reserves as of the date of the latest balance sheet presented, less estimated future expenditures (based on currents costs) to be incurred in developing and producing the proved reserves computed using a discount factor of ten percent and assuming continuation of existing economic conditions; (ii) the cost of properties not being amortized; and (iii)
the lower of cost or estimated fair value of unproven properties included in the costs being amortized. If unamortized costs capitalized within a cost center, less related deferred income taxes, exceed the ceiling, the excess shall be charged to expense and separately disclosed during the period in which the excess occurs. Amounts thus required to be written off shall not be reinstated for any subsequent increase in the cost center ceiling.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, long lived assets such as equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the
asset. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount of fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposed group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.

Asset Retirement Obligations
In accordance with ASC 410, Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations the fair value of an asset retirement cost, and corresponding liability, should be recorded as part of the cost of the related long-lived asset and subsequently allocated to expense using a systematic and rational method. The Company provides for future asset retirement obligations on its oil and natural gas properties based on estimates established by current legislation. The asset retirement obligation is initially measured at fair value and capitalized to capital assets as an asset retirement cost. The asset retirement obligation accretes until the time the asset retirement obligation is expected to settle while the asset
retirement cost is amortized over the useful life of the underlying capital assets. The amortization of the asset retirement cost and the accretion of the asset retirement obligation are included in depletion and accretion expense. Actual asset retirement costs are recorded against the obligation when incurred. Any difference between the recorded asset retirement obligations and the actual retirement costs incurred is recorded as a gain or loss in the period of settlement.
Revenue recognition
Revenue from the production of crude oil and natural gas is recognized when title passes to the customer and when collection of the revenue is reasonably assured. The Company does not operate the well and is reliant on the well’s operator to market and sell its proportion of oil and gas produced from the well. The customers take title when the crude oil is transferred to their pipeline or collection facility.
The Company has not recognized any in revenue from its oil and gas exploration activities as of August 31, 2011 but did begin earning revenue from its 28% working interest it has in its Valhalla Property in Alberta, Canada commencing in September, 2011.
NOTE 2 – BUSINESS COMBINATION
On June 23, 2011 the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of a private Canadian business owned by the Company’s principal executive officer called Buckeye Oil & Gas (Canada) Inc. (“Buckeye Canada”), a company incorporated in Alberta, Canada. The purchase price paid for the shares of Buckeye Canada was $400,000, which was paid by the issuance to Pol Brisset, the Company's principal officer and a director, of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
As a result of the acquisition, Buckeye Canada became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

Farmout and Participation Agreement with Luxor
Buckeye Canada’s sole asset is rights granted pursuant to a May 12, 2011 Farmout and Participation Agreement with Luxor Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Luxor”). Under this agreement Buckeye Canada has agreed to incur 80% of the cost of drilling a well on one of Luxor’s properties in exchange for a 56% working interest in said well. In a separate agreement, on May 16, 2011 Buckeye Canada entered into a Participation Agreement whereby the Company agreed to share its obligations and rights under the agreement with Luxor with a partner on a 50% basis. The partner is a privately-owned company called Pioneer Marketing Group, Ltd. (“Pioneer”). The Participation Agreement
requires Buckeye Canada and Pioneer to equally fund Buckeye Canada’s obligations under the Luxor agreement and to participate equally in the interest in the well. Accordingly, Buckeye Canada and Pioneer will each pay a net 40% of the initial capital costs and earn a 28% interest in any wells drilled by Luxor, as long as Pioneer continues to fund its half of the required amount of expenses.
At the time of the acquisition of Buckeye Canada, Buckeye Canada had paid Luxor an aggregate CDN $152,876 (USD $159,839) in connection with the drilling of the well. The well, located in the Valhalla area of Alberta (“Valhalla Well”), Canada was drilled in July 2011. In August 2011, Buckeye Canada paid an additional aggregate CDN $175,527 (USD $185,762) to Luxor for the costs to complete the well and acquire surface infrastructure for oil collection. The well was completed in August, 2011 and initial production began in September 2011. Buckeye Canada has now earned its 28% interest in the Valhalla Well.
Buckeye Canada also has the right of first refusal to participate on two additional properties if Luxor determines that it desires to pursue drilling on those properties. If Buckeye Canada exercises this right, it will need to pay 80% of such expenses in exchange for 56% of the revenues. On July 26, 2011 Buckeye Canada exercised its rights to participate in a second well drilled by Luxor. The second property is called Spirit Rycroft and the well on this property was drilled in August 2011. The Company paid Luxor an aggregate CDN $202,706 (USD $206,422) for the drilling of the well. The well was completed in September 2011. It has not yet been determined when
production, if any, will commence on the Spirit Rycroft well.
The agreement with Luxor provides for Buckeye Canada to earn its working interest on the entire property and not just on the respective well. As a result, now that Buckeye Canada has earned-in on the Valhalla property, Buckeye Canada will pay 28% of the capital costs on any new wells drilled on the Valhalla property and earn a 28% working interest. In other words, on the potentially three properties that are part of the Luxor agreement, Buckeye Canada pays 40% of the capital costs to earn a 28% working interest on the first well but pays 28% of the capital costs to earn a 28% working interest on all subsequent wells drilled on the respective property.

General
We are engaged in the acquisition and exploration of oil and gas properties.
On June 23, 2011 the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of a private Canadian business owned by the Company’s principal executive officer called Buckeye Oil & Gas (Canada) Inc. (“Buckeye Canada”), a company incorporated in Alberta, Canada. The purchase price paid for the shares of Buckeye Canada was $400,000, which was paid by the issuance to Pol Brisset, the Company's principal officer and a director, of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
As a result of the acquisition, Buckeye Canada became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
Buckeye Canada’s sole asset is rights granted pursuant to a May 12, 2011 Farmout and Participation Agreement with Luxor Oil & Gas, Inc. (“Luxor”). Under this agreement Buckeye Canada has agreed to incur 80% of the cost of drilling a well on one of Luxor’s properties in exchange for a 56% working interest in said well. In a separate agreement, on May 16, 2011 Buckeye Canada entered into a Participation Agreement whereby the Company agreed to share its obligations and rights under the agreement with Luxor with a partner on a 50% basis. The partner is a privately-owned company called Pioneer Marketing Group, Ltd. (“Pioneer”). The Participation Agreement
requires Buckeye Canada and Pioneer to equally fund Buckeye Canada’s obligations under the Luxor agreement and to participate equally in the interest in the well. Accordingly, Buckeye Canada and Pioneer will each pay a net 40% of the initial capital costs and earn a 28% interest in any wells drilled by Luxor, as long as Pioneer continues to fund its half of the required amount of expenses.
At the time of the acquisition of Buckeye Canada, Buckeye Canada had paid Luxor an aggregate CDN $152,876 (USD $159,839) in connection with the drilling of the well. The well, located in the Valhalla area of Alberta (“Valhalla Well”), Canada was drilled in July 2011. In August 2011, Buckeye Canada paid an additional aggregate CDN $175,527 (USD $185,762) to Luxor for the costs to complete the well and acquire surface infrastructure for oil collection. The well was completed in August, 2011 and initial production began in September 2011. Buckeye Canada has now earned its 28% interest in the Valhalla Well.
Buckeye Canada also has the right of first refusal to participate on two additional properties if Luxor determines that it desires to pursue drilling on those properties. If Buckeye Canada exercises this right, it will need to pay 80% of such expenses in exchange for 56% of the revenues. On July 26, 2011 Buckeye Canada exercised its rights to participate in a second well drilled by Luxor. The second property is called Spirit Rycroft and the well on this property was drilled in August 2011. The Company paid Luxor an aggregate CDN $202,706 (USD $206,422) for the drilling of the well. The well was completed in September 2011. It has not yet been determined when
production, if any, will commence on the Spirit Rycroft well.
14
The agreement with Luxor provides for Buckeye Canada to earn its working interest on the entire property and not just on the respective well. As a result, now that Buckeye Canada has earned-in on the Valhalla property, Buckeye Canada will pay 28% of the capital costs on any new wells drilled on the Valhalla property and earn a 28% working interest. In other words, on the potentially three properties that are part of the Luxor agreement, Buckeye Canada pays 40% of the capital costs to earn a 28% working interest on the first well but pays 28% of the capital costs to earn a 28% working interest on all subsequent wells drilled on the respective property.
Plan of Operations
During the next twelve months, our objective is to continue to fund our agreement with Luxor with the intention of drilling additional wells on the Valhalla or Spirit Rycroft Property or commencing drilling on the third property under our agreement with Luxor. We are meeting with Luxor on a regular basis to determine the next step in the exploration and development of our properties but it has not yet been determined which property will be drilled next.
Current cash on hand is insufficient for all of the Company’s commitments for the next 12 months. We anticipate that we will require approximately an additional $877,000 to fund our operations. see note above We anticipate that the additional funding that we require will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. However, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund additional phases of the Exploration program, should we decide to proceed. We believe that debt financing will not be an alternative for funding any further phases in our Exploration program. The
risky nature of this enterprise and lack of tangible assets places debt financing beyond the credit-worthiness required by most banks or typical investors of corporate debt until such time as an economically viable mine can be demonstrated. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing.
Notwithstanding, we cannot be certain that the required additional financing will be available or available on terms favorable to us. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of our equity securities, such as through the issuance and exercise of warrants, then existing stockholders will experience dilution of their ownership interest. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of debt or other equity instruments, we may be subject to certain limitations in our operations, and issuance of such securities may have rights senior to those of the then existing holders of common stock. If adequate funds are not available or not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to fund expansion, develop or
enhance services or respond to competitive pressures.
We continue to rely on Luxor to provide their employees and to source appropriate contractors to undertake the drill programs on the properties subject to our agreement with Luxor. We remain focused on keeping the staff levels, which currently consist of our two directors and one officer, at a minimum to conserve capital. Our staffing level does not currently hinder our operations, as outsourcing of necessary operations continues to be the most cost effective and efficient manner of conducting the business of the Company.
The following is an overview of the project work to date, as well as anticipated work for the next twelve months. Specific dates when work will begin, and how long it will take to complete each step is subject to change due to the variables of weather, availability of work crews for a particular type of work, and the results of work that is planned, the outcome of which will determine what the next step on that project will be.
Oil and Gas Property Interests
Valhalla Property
Under the Farmout Agreement with Luxor the first property drilled was the Valhalla Property located in the Valhalla area of Alberta, Canada. On July 11, 2011 the Company was informed by Luxor that the well had been drilled to 785 metres and a 9 metre core sample was taken from the primary target Doe Creek formation. Subsequently, the well was cased and cemented, and the drilling rig was released the same day. On July 26, 2011 Luxor requested funds to complete the Valhalla Well. The completion costs include readying the well for production, installing a single-well oil battery, supplying and installing the well-site equipment which includes the pump, and expanding and improving the road to
the property. As of August 31, 2011 Buckeye Canada has made total cash payments of $345,601 to Luxor in connection with the drilling and completion of the Valhalla Well.
15
The well was completed in August, 2011 and production began at the end of September 2011. Final geological results are currently being determined. The Valhalla Property does not currently contain any assigned resources or reserves of oil or natural gas. At this time, the possibility of reserves or resources is still being determined.
Spirit Rycroft Property
On July 26, 2011 Buckeye Canada exercised its rights to participate in a second well to be drilled by Luxor. The second well drilled under the Company’s agreement with Luxor is on the Spirit Rycroft Property. The drilling of the second well commenced in August 2011. As of August 31, 2011 Buckeye Canada has made total cash payments of $206,422 to Luxor in connection with the drilling of the Spirit Rycroft Well.
The well was completed in September 2011. It has not yet been determined when production, if any, will commence on the Spirit Rycroft well. The Spirit Rycroft Property does not currently contain any assigned resources or reserves of oil or natural gas.
Related Party Transactions
On June 23, 2011 the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of a private Canadian business owned by the Company’s principal executive officer called Buckeye Oil & Gas (Canada) Inc. (“Buckeye Canada”), a company incorporated in Alberta, Canada. The purchase price paid for the shares of Buckeye Canada was $400,000, which was paid by the issuance to Pol Brisset, the Company's principal officer and a director, of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company.
As a result of the acquisition, Buckeye Canada became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company
Effective July 1, 2011 the Company began paying one of its Directors CDN $500 per month to serve on the Board of Directors. During the three-months ended August 31, 2011 the Company paid $1,022 (CDN $1,000) under this agreement. Effective September 1, 2011 the Company amended this service agreement. Under the amended agreement the Company will still pay CDN $500 per month to serve as a director of the Company but commencing September 1, 2011 will also pay an hourly consulting fee based on actual hours worked on behalf of the Company.
Also effective September 1, 2011 the Company entered into a service agreement with Pol Brisset, its principal executive officer. Under the agreement the Company paid Mr. Brisset CDN $10,000 upon signing and will pay Mr. Brisset CDN $2,500 on a monthly basis.
Results of Operations
The three-months Ended August 31, 2011 compared to the three-months ended August 31, 2010
Revenues
We did not earn any revenues during the three-months ended August 31, 2011 or 2010. We do not anticipate earning revenues until such time as we have entered into commercial production of our oil and gas properties. We are presently in the exploration stage of our business and we can provide no assurance that we will discover commercially exploitable levels of natural resources on our properties, or if such resources are discovered, that we will enter into commercial production of our properties.
Operating Expenses
For the three-months ended August 31, 2011 our net loss was $11,646 compared to $1,077 for the three-months ended August 31, 2010. Expenses have increased in the current period due to legal and filing fees related to the Company becoming registered with the SEC, expenses associated with the change in our business, and to an increased level of regulatory compliance. For the three-months ended August 31, 2011, the Company incurred $5,800 in professional fees, $3,924 in office costs, $1,022 in directors’ fees, and $900 in rent. The Company was incorporated on May 11, 2010 and as a result for the three-months ended August 31, 2010 the Company had minimal expenses
16
Liquidity and capital resources
We had a cash balance of $296,003 and working capital of285,301 at August 31, 2011. We anticipate that we will incur the following expenses over the next twelve months:
·
|
$48,000 for operating expenses, including working capital and general, legal, accounting and administrative expenses associated with reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
|
·
|
$633,000 for cash calls related to the funding of drill programs under our agreement with Luxor.
|
·
|
$36,000 for the payment to our officers and directors. Pursuant to the services agreement with Pol Brisset, our principal executive officer and a director, effective September 1, 2011 we are obligated to pay Mr. Brisset CDN $2,500 on a monthly basis. Pursuant to the amended agreement with Mr. Dhinsa, our secretary and a director, we are to pay Mr. Dhinsa CDN $500 per month to serve as a director of the Company.

Net cash used in operating activities during the three-months ended August 31, 2011 was $4,069 compared to $4,077 during the same period in 2010. The increase in the net loss to $11,646 in 2011 from $1,077 in 2010 was largely offset by the impact of changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. For the three-months ended August 31, 2011 there was an inflow from accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $8,782 compared to an outflow of $3,000 in 2010. There was $450,000 received from the sale of common stock in in 2011 while there were no financing activities in 2010. Investing activities for the three-months ended August 31, 2011 consisted of $392,604 used for
the acquisition of oil and gas property interests and $240,161 received upon the acquisition of Buckeye Oil & Gas (Canada), Inc. There were no investing activities in 2010.
On August 26, 2011 the Company closed a private placement of 1,800,000 common shares at $0.25 per share for a total offering price of $450,000. The common shares were offered by the Registrant pursuant to an exemption from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The funds received from this financing will be used to fund the Company’s portion of the Spirit Rycroft well that was drilled in August, 2011. Even with this financing current cash on hand to fund all of the Company’s requirements under the drill programs currently proposed by Luxor is insufficient.
Going Concern Consideration
Current cash on hand is not sufficient to fund our planned operations over the next twelve months. Even if the wells drilled on the Valhalla and Spirit Rycroft Properties commence production in the coming months, cash flow from the wells will not be sufficient to fund our planned operations. We anticipate generating losses and therefore we may be unable to continue operations in the future as a going concern. No adjustment has been made in the accompanying financial statements to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that could result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources.
Accordingly, our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their report on the May 31, 2011 financial statements regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements contain additional note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to this disclosure by our independent auditors.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
