capital. Forward-looking statements, which involve assumptions and
describe our future plans, strategies, and expectations, are generally
identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “might,”
“expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” or “project” or the
negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable
terminology. This information may involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance,
or achievements to be materially different from the future results, performance,
or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking
statements. These statements may be found under “Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations,” “Business,” “Properties,” as well as in this report
generally.
The safe
harbor provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, apply to
forward-looking statements made by the Company. The reader is cautioned that no
statements contained in this Form 10-K should be construed as a guarantee or
assurance of future performance or results. Actual events or results may differ
materially from those discussed in forward-looking statements as a result of
various factors, including, without limitation, the risks described in this
report and matters described in this report generally. In light of
these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the
forward-looking statements contained in this filing will in fact
occur. These forward-looking statements are based on current
expectations, and the Company assumes no obligation to update this information.
Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made
by the Company in this Form 10-K and in the Company's other reports filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission that attempt to advise interested parties
of the risks and factors that may affect the Company's business.
The
Company
Incorporated
under the laws of the State of Nevada, Entheos Technologies, Inc. (“the Company”
“we” “us” and “our”) has an authorized capital of 200,000,000 shares of $0.00001
par value common stock, of which 63,075,122 shares are outstanding and
10,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value preferred stock, of which none are
outstanding.
From 2002
until September 2008, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Email Solutions, Inc.,
the Company served as an Application Service Provider (“ASP”) providing
reliable, real time, high volume outsourced email and search engine optimization
services. Due to the limited success of the ASP business, management decided
that it was in the best interest to abandon the Application Service Provider
business and focus on identifying undervalued oil and gas opportunities for
acquisition, development and exploration. The assets and liabilities, the
results of operations and cash flows related to the ASP business were not
classified as discontinued operations as the amounts were not
significant.
Our
principal executive offices are located at 888-3rd Street
SW, Suite 1000, Calgary Alberta, Canada T2P 5C5. Our telephone number
is (403) 444-6418.
As we are
a smaller reporting company, certain disclosures otherwise required to be made
in a Form 10-K are not required to be made by the Company.
Description
of Business
We are a
small independent diversified energy company engaged in the acquisition and
development of crude oil and natural gas interests in the United States.
We pursue oil and gas prospects in partnership with oil and gas companies with
exploration, development and production expertise. We currently have
a non-operating, minority working interest in five properties. Our
prospect areas consist of land in La Salle County, Lee County, Fayette County
and Frio County, Texas. Currently
four of the five wells in which we have a minority working interest are
producing. We currently do not operate any of the wells in which we
have an interest.
Strategy
Subject
to economic conditions affecting the oil and gas industry, our strategy is to
identify and acquire (i) low risk in-field oil and gas rights that are primarily
developmental in nature that offset existing production and (ii) energy services
companies that when combined with our management expertise in that area will
display strong top line growth and cash flows. Although to date we have
acquired minority working interests we will, if the appropriate properties are
available to us on terms acceptable to us, acquire controlling interests as
well.
Acquisition
of Oil & Gas Properties
In
September 2008, the Company acquired a 21.75% working interest (16.3125% net
revenue interest) in the Cooke #6 well located at the Cooke Ranch field in La
Salle County, Texas which has been producing oil and gas from the Escondido
formation since 2007. In September 2008, the Company acquired a
20.00% working interest (15.00% net revenue interest) in Onnie Ray #1 Well in
Lee County, Texas and the Stahl #1 Well in Fayette County, Texas which were
subsequently re-entered and are producing oil and gas from the Austin Chalk
formation and a 20.00% working interest (15.00% net revenue interest) in the
Haile #1 Well in Frio County, Texas which is currently scheduled for re-entry
operations. On October 31, 2008 we acquired a 20.00% working interest
(15.00% net revenue interest) in Pearce #1 Well in Frio County, Texas which is
currently producing oil from the Austin Chalk formation.

Geologic
Background
Escondido
Formation
The
Escondido formation, where Cooke #6 is located, is a regional producer spanning
several counties in South Texas. There are many Escondido oil and gas
fields which have produced anywhere from 600,000 to 3,100,000 barrels of oil and
the gas fields have produced up to 18 BCF of gas.
Austin Chalk
Formation
Giddings
is a main producing field of the Austin Chalk formation consisting of fractured
carbonate, which is where our Onnie Ray #1 and Stahl #1 wells are
located. This formation covers central Texas, parts of Mexico and
even into northwest Louisiana. The Austin Chalk in central Texas has
been and continues to be explored and developed for its oil and gas potential by
companies such as Anadarko Petroleum Corporation, Chesapeake Energy Corporation,
and Exxon Mobil Corporation.
Haile #1
and Pearce #1 wells are located within the Pearsall Austin Chalk field which is
south west of the Giddings field and is also a significant historic
producer. The Pearsall field has been and continues to be explored
and developed much like the Giddings fields to the North.

The
four reservoirs classified as proven developed properties is based
on Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation S-X Rule 4-10
“reservoirs are considered proved if economic producibility is supported by
either actual production or a conclusive formation test.” These wells
are supported by actual production. The Company has not yet obtained
reserve studies providing proved reserve quantities due to the recentness of the
acquisition of these properties and due to the wells still being in their
initial testing phase. Management is assessing and compiling
production data to determine the need for reserves studies going
forward.
The
unproven property, Haile, is also classified according to guidelines set forth
by SEC Regulation S-X Rule 4-10. The well is not currently supported
by actual production nor are there defined engineering reserve studies for this
well. An exploratory drilling program was started in early 2009 to complete a
new unproven upper zone of this well.
Research
and Development Expenditures
Since
inception, we have not incurred any expenditures in research or
development.
Marketing
of Production
Sale
of Crude Oil and Natural Gas
Our
production consists of natural gas and crude that is marketed by the well site
Operators. We sell our crude oil and condensate production at or near
the well-site, although in some cases it is gathered by us or others and
delivered to a central point of sale. Our crude oil and condensate production is
transported by truck or by pipeline and is typically committed to arrangements
having a term of one year or less. We have not engaged in crude oil hedging or
trading activities. We have not engaged in natural gas hedging or futures
trading, nor do we have any long term contracts to sell our
production.
Sales of
crude oil totaled $8,199 (114.9 bbl) for fiscal 2008 which represented
60% of our total oil and gas revenues for the year ended December 31,
2008. Sales of natural gas totaled $5,571 for 2008 (746.6
mcf).
Price
Considerations
Crude oil
prices are established in a highly liquid, international market, with average
crude oil prices that we receive generally fluctuating with changes in the
futures price established on the NYMEX for West Texas Intermediate Crude Oil
(“NYMEX-WTI”). The average crude oil price per Bbl received by us in fiscal 2008
was $71.35.
Natural
gas and natural gas liquids prices in the geographical areas in which we operate
are closely tied to established price indices which are heavily influenced by
national and regional supply and demand factors and the futures price per MMBtu
for natural gas delivered at Henry Hub, Louisiana established on the NYMEX
(“NYMEX-Henry Hub”). At times, these indices correlate closely with the
NYMEX-Henry Hub price, but often there are significant variances between the
NYMEX-Henry Hub price and the indices used to price our natural
gas. Average natural gas prices received by us in each of our operating
areas generally fluctuate with changes in these established indices. The average
natural gas price per Mcf received by us in fiscal 2008 was $7.46.
Governmental
Regulations
Our
operations are affected from time to time in varying degrees by political
developments and U.S. federal, state, and local laws and regulations. In
particular, natural gas and crude oil production and related operations are, or
have been, subject to price controls, taxes and other laws and regulations
relating to the industry. Failure to comply with such laws and regulations
can result in substantial penalties. The regulatory burden on the industry
increases our cost of doing business and affects our profitability. Although we
believe we are in substantial compliance with all applicable laws and
regulations, such laws and regulations are frequently amended or reinterpreted
so we are unable to predict the future cost or impact of complying with such
laws and regulations.
Environmental
Matters
Our
natural gas and crude oil exploration, development and production operations are
subject to stringent U.S. federal, state and local laws governing the discharge
of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to environmental
protection. Numerous governmental agencies, such as the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (“EPA”), issue regulations to implement and enforce such laws,
and compliance is often difficult and costly. Failure to comply may result
in substantial costs and expenses, including possible civil and criminal
penalties. These laws and regulations may:
|
·
|
require
the acquisition of a permit before drilling
commences;
|
|
·
|
restrict
the types, quantities and concentrations of various substances that can be
released into the environment in connection with drilling, production and
processing activities;
|
|
·
|
limit
or prohibit drilling activities on certain lands lying within wilderness,
wetlands, frontier and other protected
areas;
|
|
·
|
require
remedial action to prevent pollution from former operations such as
plugging abandoned wells; and
|
|
·
|
impose
substantial liabilities for pollution resulting from
operations.
|
In
addition, these laws, rules and regulations may restrict the rate of natural gas
and crude oil production below the rate that would otherwise exist. The
regulatory burden on the industry increases the cost of doing business and
consequently affects our profitability. Changes in environmental laws and
regulations occur frequently, and any changes that result in more stringent and
costly waste handling, disposal or clean-up requirements could adversely affect
our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. While we
believe that we are in substantial compliance with current applicable
environmental laws and regulations, and we have not experienced any materially
adverse effect from compliance with these environmental requirements, we cannot
assure you that this will continue in the future.
The U.S.
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”),
also known as the “Superfund” law, imposes liability, without regard to fault or
the legality of the original conduct, on certain classes of persons who are
considered to be responsible for the release of a “hazardous substance” into the
environment. These persons include the present or past owners or operators
of the disposal site or sites where the release occurred and the companies that
transported or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substances at the site
where the release occurred. Under CERCLA, such persons may be subject to
joint and several liability for the costs of cleaning up the hazardous
substances that have been released into the environment, for damages to natural
resources and for the costs of certain health studies. It is not uncommon
for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal
injury and property damages allegedly caused by the release of hazardous
substances or other pollutants into the environment. Furthermore,
although petroleum, including natural gas and crude oil, is exempt from CERCLA,
at least two courts have ruled that certain wastes associated with the
production of crude oil may be classified as “hazardous substances” under CERCLA
and thus such wastes may become subject to liability and regulation under
CERCLA. State initiatives to further regulate the disposal of crude oil and
natural gas wastes are also pending in certain states, and these various
initiatives could have adverse impacts on us.
Stricter
standards in environmental legislation may be imposed on the industry in the
future. For instance, legislation has been proposed in the U.S. Congress
from time to time that would reclassify certain exploration and production
wastes as “hazardous wastes” and make the reclassified wastes subject to more
stringent handling, disposal and clean-up restrictions. Compliance with
environmental requirements generally could have a materially adverse effect upon
our financial position, results of operations and cash
flows. Although we have not experienced any materially adverse effect
from compliance with environmental requirements, we cannot assure you that this
will continue in the future.
The U.S.
Federal Water Pollution Control Act (“FWPCA”) imposes restrictions and strict
controls regarding the discharge of produced waters and other petroleum wastes
into navigable waters. Permits must be obtained to discharge pollutants
into state and federal waters. The FWPCA and analogous state laws provide
for civil, criminal and administrative penalties for any unauthorized discharges
of crude oil and other hazardous substances in reportable quantities and may
impose substantial potential liability for the costs of removal, remediation and
damages. Federal effluent limitations guidelines prohibit the discharge of
produced water and sand, and some other substances related to the natural gas
and crude oil industry, into coastal waters. Although the costs to comply
with zero discharge mandated under federal or state law may be significant, the
entire industry will experience similar costs and we believe that these costs
will not have a materially adverse impact on our financial condition and results
of operations. Some oil and gas exploration and production facilities are
required to obtain permits for their storm water discharges. Costs may be
incurred in connection with treatment of wastewater or developing storm water
pollution prevention plans.
The U.S.
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”), generally does not regulate
most wastes generated by the exploration and production of natural gas and crude
oil. RCRA specifically excludes from the definition of hazardous waste
“drilling fluids, produced waters, and other wastes associated with the
exploration, development, or production of crude oil, natural gas or geothermal
energy.” However, these wastes may be regulated by the EPA or state
agencies as solid waste. Moreover, ordinary industrial wastes, such as
paint wastes, waste solvents, laboratory wastes and waste compressor oils, are
regulated as hazardous wastes. Although the costs of managing solid
hazardous waste may be significant, we do not expect to experience more
burdensome costs than would be borne by similarly situated companies in the
industry.
In
addition, the U.S. Oil Pollution Act (“OPA”) requires owners and operators of
facilities that could be the source of an oil spill into “waters of the United
States,” a term defined to include rivers, creeks, wetlands and coastal waters,
to adopt and implement plans and procedures to prevent any spill of oil into any
waters of the United States. OPA also requires affected facility owners and
operators to demonstrate that they have at least $35 million in financial
resources to pay for the costs of cleaning up an oil spill and compensating any
parties damaged by an oil spill. Substantial civil and criminal fines and
penalties can be imposed for violations of OPA and other environmental
statutes.
Competition
The oil
and gas industry is highly competitive. We compete with major oil
companies, large and small independents, and individuals for the acquisition of
leases and properties. Most competitors have financial and other resources
which substantially exceed ours. Resources of our competitors may
allow them to pay more for desirable leases and to evaluate, bid for and
purchase a greater number of properties or prospects than us. Our ability
to replace and expand our reserves is dependent on our ability to select and
acquire producing properties and prospects for future drilling.
Operations
Oil and
gas properties are customarily operated under the terms of a joint operating
agreement, which provides for reimbursement of the operator’s direct expenses
and monthly per well supervision fees. Per well supervision fees vary widely
depending on the geographic location and producing formation of the well,
whether the well produces oil or gas and other factors. We are not the operator
of our wells, which are operated by Bayshore Exploration Inc, and Leexus Oil
LLC. The operators charge the Company, without mark-up, for the
Company’s working interest portion of the direct operating costs and overhead
costs (which are comprised of administrative, supervision, office services and
warehousing costs) that the operators incur with respect to our
wells.
Employees
We
currently have no full-time employees. All of our activities are conducted
through contracting geologists, engineers, operators and other oil and gas
professionals.
GLOSSARY
OF CERTAIN OIL AND GAS TERMS
The
following is a description of the meanings of some of the natural gas
and oil industry terms used in this filing:
“Bbl” means a barrel or
barrels of oil.
“Btu” means British thermal
unit, which means the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of one
pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit.
“Completion” means the
installation of permanent equipment for the production of natural
gas or oil.
“Condensate” means hydrocarbons
naturally occurring in the gaseous phase in a reservoir that condense to become
a liquid at the surface due to the change in pressure and
temperature.
“Crude” means unrefined liquid
petroleum.
“Gross acres” or “gross wells” refer to the
total acres or wells, as the case may be, in which a working interest is
owned.
“Mcf” means thousand cubic feet
of natural gas.
“MMBtu” means one million
Btus.
“Operator” refers to the
individual or company responsible for the exploration, development and
production of an oil or gas well or lease.
“Proved developed oil and gas reserves” refers
to reserves that can be expected to be recovered through
existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods.
Additional oil and gas expected to be obtained through the application of fluid
injection or other improved recovery techniques for supplementing the natural
forces and mechanisms of primary recovery should be included as “proved
developed reserves” only after testing by a pilot project or after the operation
of an installed program has confirmed through production responses that
increased recovery will be achieved.
“Proved oil and gas
reserves” means the estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas
and natural gas liquids which geological and engineering data demonstrate
with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known
reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions, i.e., prices
and costs as of the date the estimate is made. Reservoirs are considered
proved if economic producibility is supported by either actual production or
conclusive formation test. The area of a reservoir considered proved
includes (a) that portion delineated by drilling and defined by gas-oil and/or
oil-water contacts, if any, and (b) the immediately adjoining portions not yet
drilled, but which can be reasonably judged as economically productive on the
basis of available geological and engineering data. In the absence of
information on fluid contacts, the lowest known structural occurrence of
hydrocarbons controls the lower proved limit of the reservoir. Reserves
which can be produced economically through application of improved recovery
techniques (such as fluid injection) are included in the “proved” classification
when successful testing by a pilot project, or the operation of an installed
program in the reservoir, provides support for the engineering analysis on
which the project or program was based. Estimates of proved
reserves do not include the following: (a) oil that may become
available from known reservoirs but is classified separately as “indicated
additional reserves” (b) crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids,
the recovery of which is subject to reasonable doubt because of
uncertainty as to geology, reservoir characteristics or economic factors;
(c) crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids that may occur in
undrilled prospects; and (d) crude oil, natural gas and natural gas
liquids that may be recovered from oil shales, coal, gilsonite and other
such sources.
“Proven properties” refers
to properties containing proved reserves.
“Proved undeveloped
reserves” refers to reserves that are expected to be recovered from
new wells on undrilled acreage or from existing wells where a relatively major
expenditure is required for recompletion. Reserves on undrilled acreage
are limited to those drilling units offsetting productive units that are
reasonably certain of production when drilled. Proved reserves for other
undrilled units can be claimed only where it can be demonstrated with certainty
that there is continuity of production from the existing productive
formation. Proved undeveloped reserves may not include estimates
attributable to any acreage for which an application of fluid injection or other
improved recovery technique is contemplated, unless such techniques have been
proved effective by actual tests in the area and in the same
reservoir.
“Recompletion” means the
completion for production of an existing well bore in another formation from
that in which the well has been previously completed.
“Unproven properties” refers to
properties containing no proved reserves.
“Working interest” refers to
the operating interest that gives the owner the right to drill, produce and
conduct operating activities on the property and receive a share of
production.
“Workover” means operations on
a producing well to restore or increase production.
We do not
own any properties other than oil and gas properties acquired during
2008. On September 10, 2008 we entered into a one year operating
lease agreement with a non-affiliate for our corporate office, located at 888
3rd Street SW, Suite 1000, Calgary, AB Canada T2P 5C5. The
monthly rent is $315 CDN.
We are
currently not a party to any material pending legal proceedings or government
actions, including any bankruptcy, receivership, or similar proceedings. In
addition, management is not aware of any known litigation or liabilities
involving the operators of our properties that could affect our operations.
Should any liabilities incur in the future, they will be accrued based on
management’s best estimate of the potential loss. As such, there is no adverse
effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flow at this
time. Furthermore, we do not believe that there are any proceedings to which any
of our directors, officers, or affiliates, any owner of record of the
beneficially or more than five percent of our common stock, or any associate of
any such director, officer, affiliate, or security holder is a party adverse or
has a material interest adverse to us.

Dividend
Policy
We have
not paid any dividends on our common stock and our board of directors presently
intends to continue a policy of retaining earnings, if any, for use in our
operations. The declaration and payment of dividends in the future, of which
there can be no assurance, will be determined by the board of directors in light
of conditions then existing, including earnings, financial condition, capital
requirements and other factors. The Nevada Revised Statutes prohibit us from
declaring dividends where, if after giving effect to the distribution of the
dividend:
|
·
|
We
would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course
of business; or
|
|
·
|
Our
total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the
amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of stockholders who have
preferential rights superior to those receiving the
distribution.
|
Except as
set forth above, there are no restrictions that currently materially limit our
ability to pay dividends or which we reasonably believe are likely to limit
materially the future payment of dividends on common stock.

Discussion
and Analysis
The
following discussion and analysis is based upon our consolidated
financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States, and should be read in
conjunction with our financial statements and related notes. The preparation of
these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses,
and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases
its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are
believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the
basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities
that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from
these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. In addition, the
following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that
involve risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those
discussed in “Forward
Looking Statements,” and elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
Overview
Entheos
Technologies, Inc. (“the Company”) is a small independent diversified energy
company engaged in the acquisition and development of crude oil and natural gas
interests in the United States. The Company pursues oil and gas
prospects in partnership with oil and gas companies with exploration,
development and production expertise. The Company participates
with a non-operating, minority working interest. The Company’s
prospect areas consist of land in La Salle County, Lee County, Fayette County
and Frio County, Texas.
Incorporated
under the laws of the State of Nevada, the Company has an authorized capital of
200,000,000 shares of $0.00001 par value common stock, of which 63,075,122
shares are outstanding and 10,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value preferred
stock, of which none are outstanding.
From 2002
until September 2008, through our wholly-owned subsidiary Email Solutions, Inc.,
the Company served as an Application Service Provider (“ASP”) providing
reliable, real time, high volume outsourced email and search engine optimization
services. Due to the limited success of the ASP business, management decided
that it was in the best interest to abandon the Application Service Provider
business and focus on identifying undervalued oil and gas opportunities for
acquisition, development and exploration. The assets and liabilities, the
results of operations and cash flows related to the ASP business were not
classified as discontinued operations as the amounts were not
significant.

We plan
to grow our business by acquiring (i) low risk in-field oil and gas rights that
are primarily developmental in nature that offset existing production and (ii)
energy services companies that when combined with our management expertise in
that area will display strong top line growth and cash flows. To date we
have acquired only minority working interests. We do not operate the wells
in which we have an interest.
Since
inception, we have funded our operations primarily from private placements of
our common stock and debt issuances. The Company has recently incurred net
operating losses and operating cash flow deficits. It may continue to
incur losses from operations and operating cash flow deficits in the
future. However, the Company believes its cash and cash equivalent
balances, anticipated cash flows from operations and other external sources of
credit will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements through March
2010. The future of the Company after March 2010 will depend in large
part on its ability to successfully generate cash flows from operations and
raise capital from external sources to fund operations.
As of
December 31, 2008, we generated revenues of $13,770 from operations of our
new core business. From inception to December 31, 2008 we have accumulated
losses of approximately $4,083,000. The Company completed a private
placement for gross proceeds of $3,225,000 on July 28, 2008. Management believes
that its current and future plans will enable it to continue operations through
March 31, 2010.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Accounting
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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Management’s judgments and estimates in these areas
are based on information available from both internal and external sources,
including engineers, geologists, consultants and historical experience in
similar matters. The more significant reporting areas impacted by
management’s judgments and estimates are accruals related to oil and gas sales
and expenses; estimates of future oil and gas reserves; estimates used in
the impairment of oil and gas properties; and the estimated future timing and
cost of asset retirement obligations.
Actual
results could differ from the estimates as additional information becomes known.
The carrying values of oil and gas properties are particularly susceptible to
change in the near term. Changes in the future estimated oil and gas
reserves or the estimated future cash flows attributable to the reserves that
are utilized for impairment analysis could have a significant impact on the
future results of operations.
Full
Cost Method of Accounting for Oil and Gas Properties
The
Company has elected to utilize the full cost method of accounting for its oil
and gas activities. In accordance with the full cost method of accounting, all
costs associated with acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas
reserves, including directly related overhead costs and related asset retirement
costs, are capitalized.
All
capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, including the estimated future
costs to develop proved reserves, are amortized on the unit-of-production method
using estimates of proved reserves once proved reserves are determined to
exist. The Company has not yet obtained reserve reports because of its
recent acquisition of its oil and gas properties and because these properties
recently began producing. Management is assessing geographic and
production data to determine the need for reserves studies. At
December 31, 2008, there were no capitalized costs subject to
amortization.
Oil and
gas properties without estimated proved reserves are not amortized until
proved reserves associated with the properties can be determined or until
impairment occurs. The cost of these properties is assessed quarterly, on a
property-by-property basis, to determine whether the properties are recorded at
the lower of cost or fair market value. In determining whether such
costs should be impaired, the Company evaluates historical experience, current
drilling results, lease expiration dates, current oil and gas industry
conditions, international economic conditions, capital availability, and
available geological and geophysical information. As a result of this
analysis, the Company recorded an impairment of $93,444. This
impairment is similar to amortization and therefore is not added to the cost of
properties being amortized.
Sales of
oil and gas properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs
with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly
alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and
gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in income. The
Company did not sell any properties during 2008 or 2007.
Full
Cost Ceiling Test
At the
end of each quarterly reporting period, the unamortized costs of oil and gas
properties are subject to a “ceiling test” which basically limits
capitalized costs to the sum of the estimated future net revenues from proved
reserves, discounted at 10% per annum to present value, based on current
economic and operating conditions, adjusted for related income tax
effects.
Oil
and Gas Revenues
The
Company recognizes oil and gas revenues when oil and gas production is sold to a
purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, when delivery has occurred and title
has transferred, and if collectability of the revenue is probable. Delivery
occurs and title is transferred when production has been delivered to a
purchaser’s pipeline or truck. As a result of the numerous requirements
necessary to gather information from purchasers or various measurement
locations, calculate volumes produced, perform field and wellhead allocations
and distribute and disburse funds to various working interest partners and
royalty owners, the collection of revenues from oil and gas production may take
up to 45 days following the month of production. Therefore, the Company may
make accruals for revenues and accounts receivable based on estimates of its
share of production. Since the settlement process may take 30 to 60 days
following the month of actual production, its financial results may include
estimates of production and revenues for the related time period. The Company
will record any differences between the actual amounts ultimately received and
the original estimates in the period they become finalized. As of
December 31, 2008, all revenue and expense information had been received from
the operators so there was no estimated revenue or expense.
Asset
Retirement Obligation
The
Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations.” SFAS 143 amended SFAS 19, “Financial Accounting and Reporting
by Oil and Gas Producing Companies,” and, among other matters, addresses
financial accounting and reporting for legal obligations associated with the
retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement
costs. SFAS No. 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for an
asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which it is incurred,
with the associated asset retirement cost capitalized as part of the related
asset and allocated to expense over the asset’s useful life.
In
March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 47 (“FIN
No. 47”), Accounting for
Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations. FIN No. 47 clarifies that a
conditional asset retirement obligation, as used in SFAS 143, refers to a legal
obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing or method
of the settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be
within the control of the entity. Accordingly, an entity is required to
recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement
obligation if the fair value can be reasonably estimated.
The
Company does not have material asset retirement obligations as of December 31,
2008 or 2007.
Variables
and Trends
We have
very limited history with respect to our acquisition and development of oil and
gas properties. In the event we are able to obtain the necessary
financing to move forward with our business plan, we expect our expenses to
increase significantly as we grow our business. Accordingly, the
comparison of the financial data for the periods presented may not be a
meaningful indicator of our future performance and must be considered in light
of these circumstances.

Revenues
Oil and
gas sales were $13,770 in fiscal 2008 compared to $0 in fiscal 2007 due to the
acquisition of minority working interest in oil and gas properties in September
and October 2008.
Costs
and Expenses
Oil and
gas production expense were $9,080 in fiscal year 2008 compared to $0 in fiscal
year 2007 as the company entered into the oil & gas industry in September
2008.
General
and administrative expenses (“G&A”) were $190,693 in fiscal year 2008 and
$27,610 in fiscal year 2007 for an increase of $163,083. The change
is primarily comprised of a $57,325 increase in legal and filing fees primarily
due to the private placement in July 2008; an increase of $19,360 in stock
option compensation expense as the Company issued its first stock option in
several years, $14,520 of this total related to options granted to directors; an
increase of $33,000 in fees paid to directors from $1,500 in fiscal year 2007 to
$35,500 in fiscal year 2008 due to a change in director fee policy; an increase
of $16,143 in contract accounting expense due to closing the Canadian office and
an increase of $16,381 in audit fees.
Impairment
of oil and gas properties was $93,444 in fiscal year 2008 and $0 in fiscal year
2007. The impairment is a result of management’s review of
capitalized costs compared to estimated fair market value.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As of
December 31, 2008, the Company had a cash balance of $2,734,591. The Company has
financed its operations primarily from cash on hand and proceeds from the July
28, 2008 private placement.
Net cash
flows used in operating activities was ($69,687) for the year ended December 31,
2008, compared to net cash provided of $46,128 for 2007 due to more activity in
the business as they changed from an application service provider to an oil and
gas company.
On July
28, 2008, the Company completed a $3,200,000 self-directed private
placement. The Private Placement consisted of the sale of 6,450,000
units at a price of $0.50 per Unit or $3,225,000 in the aggregate. The Units
were offered and sold to a total of 6 investors, all of whom were accredited
investors. Each unit consisted of one share of the Company’s common stock, one
Series A Warrant to purchase a share of common stock at $0.60 per share for a
period of 18 months from the date of issuance and one Series B Warrant to
purchase a share of common stock at $0.75 per share for a period of 24 months
from the date of issuance. In addition, 50,000 units were issued in payment of
legal fees in the amount of $25,000.
Due to
the "start up" nature of the Company's businesses, the Company expects to incur
losses as it expands. The Company expects to raise additional funds through
private or public equity investment in order to expand the range and scope of
its business operations. The Company will seek access to private or public
equity but there is no assurance that such additional funds will be available
for the Company to finance its operations on acceptable terms, if at
all.

Calgary,
Alberta
We have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Entheos Technologies,
Inc. ("the Company") as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for
the years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The
Company has determined that it is not required to have, nor were we engaged to
perform, an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our
opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Entheos Technologies, Inc.
as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States.

NOTES
TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR
ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008
(Expressed
in U.S. Dollars)
Note
1. Organization and Nature of Operations
Entheos
Technologies, Inc. (“the Company”) is a small independent diversified energy
company engaged in the acquisition and development of crude oil and natural gas
interests in the United States. The Company pursues oil and gas
prospects in partnership with oil and gas companies with exploration,
development and production expertise. The Company has a
non-operating, minority working interest in five properties. The
Company’s prospect areas consist of land in La Salle County, Lee County, Fayette
County and Frio County, Texas. Currently four of the five wells in which
we have a minority interest are producing. We currently do not operate any
of the wells in which we have an interest.
Incorporated
under the laws of the State of Nevada, the Company has an authorized capital of
200,000,000 shares of $0.00001 par value common stock, of which 63,075,122
shares are outstanding and 10,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value preferred
stock, of which none are outstanding.
From 2002
until September 2008, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Email Solutions, Inc.,
the Company served as an Application Service Provider (“ASP”) providing
reliable, real time, high volume outsourced email and search engine optimization
services. Due to the limited success of the ASP business, management decided
that it was in the best interest to abandon the Application Service Provider
business and focus on identifying undervalued oil and gas opportunities for
acquisition, development and exploration. The assets and liabilities, the
results of operations and cash flows related to the ASP business were not
classified as discontinued operations as the amounts were not
significant.
The
Company has recently incurred net operating losses and operating cash flow
deficits. It may continue to incur losses from operations and
operating cash flow deficits in the future. However, management
believes the Company’s cash and cash equivalent balances, anticipated cash
flows from operations and other external sources of credit will be sufficient to
meet its cash requirements through March 2010. The future of the
Company after March 2010 will depend in large part on its ability to
successfully generate cash flows from operations and raise capital from external
sources to fund operations.
Note
2. Accounting Policies
Principles
of Accounting
These
financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Entheos Technologies,
Inc. (a Nevada corporation) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Email Solutions,
Inc. (a Nevada corporation). There are no assets and liabilities in the wholly
owned subsidiary. The Company accounts for its undivided interest in oil
and gas properties using the proportionate consolidation method, whereby its
share of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses are included in its
consolidated financial statements.
Accounting
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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Management’s judgments and estimates in these areas
are based on information available from both internal and external sources,
including engineers, geologists, consultants and historical experience in
similar matters. The more significant reporting areas impacted by
management’s judgments and estimates are accruals related to oil and gas sales
and expenses; estimates of future oil and gas reserves; estimates used in
the impairment of oil and gas properties; and the estimated future timing and
cost of asset retirement obligations.
Actual
results could differ from the estimates as additional information becomes known.
The carrying values of oil and gas properties are particularly susceptible to
change in the near term. Changes in the future estimated oil and gas
reserves or the estimated future cash flows attributable to the reserves that
are utilized for impairment analysis could have a significant impact on the
future results of operations.
Full
Cost Method of Accounting for Oil and Gas Properties
The
Company has elected to utilize the full cost method of accounting for its oil
and gas activities. In accordance with the full cost method of accounting, all
costs associated with acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas
reserves, including directly related overhead costs and related asset retirement
costs, are capitalized.
All
capitalized costs of oil and gas properties, including the estimated future
costs to develop proved reserves, are amortized on the unit-of-production method
using estimates of proved reserves once proved reserves are determined to
exist. The Company has not yet obtained reserve reports because of its
recent acquisition of its oil and gas properties and because these properties
recently began producing. Management is assessing geographic and
production data to determine the need for reserves studies. At
December 31, 2008, there were no capitalized costs subject to
amortization.
Oil and
gas properties without estimated proved reserves are not amortized until
proved reserves associated with the properties can be determined or until
impairment occurs. The cost of these properties is assessed quarterly, on a
property-by-property basis, to determine whether the properties are recorded at
the lower of cost or fair market value. In determining whether such
costs should be impaired, the Company evaluates historical experience, current
drilling results, lease expiration dates, current oil and gas industry
conditions, international economic conditions, capital availability, and
available geological and geophysical information. As a result of this
analysis, the Company recorded an impairment of $93,444 for
2008. This impairment is similar to amortization and therefore is not
added to the cost of properties being amortized.
Sales of
oil and gas properties are accounted for as adjustments of capitalized costs
with no gain or loss recognized, unless such adjustments would significantly
alter the relationship between capitalized costs and proved reserves of oil and
gas, in which case the gain or loss is recognized in income. The
Company did not sell any properties during 2008 or 2007.
Full
Cost Ceiling Test
At the
end of each quarterly reporting period, the unamortized costs of oil and gas
properties are subject to a “ceiling test” which basically limits
capitalized costs to the sum of the estimated future net revenues from proved
reserves, discounted at 10% per annum to present value, based on current
economic and operating conditions, adjusted for related income tax
effects.
Oil
and Gas Revenues
The
Company recognizes oil and gas revenues when oil and gas production is sold to a
purchaser at a fixed or determinable price, when delivery has occurred and title
has transferred, and if collectability of the revenue is probable. Delivery
occurs and title is transferred when production has been delivered to a
purchaser’s pipeline or truck. As a result of the numerous requirements
necessary to gather information from purchasers or various measurement
locations, calculate volumes produced, perform field and wellhead allocations
and distribute and disburse funds to various working interest partners and
royalty owners, the collection of revenues from oil and gas production may take
up to 45 days following the month of production. Therefore, the Company may
make accruals for revenues and accounts receivable based on estimates of its
share of production. Since the settlement process may take 30 to 60 days
following the month of actual production, its financial results may include
estimates of production and revenues for the related time period. The Company
will record any differences between the actual amounts ultimately received and
the original estimates in the period they become finalized. As of
December 31, 2008, all revenue and expense information had been received from
the operators so there was no estimated revenue or expense.
Asset
Retirement Obligation
The
Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement
Obligations.” SFAS 143
amended SFAS 19, “Financial Accounting and
Reporting by Oil and
Gas Producing Companies,” and, among other matters,
addresses financial accounting and reporting for legal obligations associated
with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset
retirement costs. SFAS No. 143 requires that the fair value of a
liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in
which it is incurred, with the associated asset retirement cost capitalized as
part of the related asset and allocated to expense over the asset’s useful
life.
In
March 2005, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 47 (“FIN
No. 47”), Accounting for
Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations. FIN No. 47 clarifies that a
conditional asset retirement obligation, as used in SFAS 143, refers to a legal
obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing or method
of the settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be
within the control of the entity. Accordingly, an entity is required to
recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement
obligation if the fair value can be reasonably estimated.
The
Company does not have material asset retirement obligations as of December 31,
2008 or 2007.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company did
not have any cash equivalents at December 31, 2008 and 2007. The Company
occasionally has cash deposits in excess of insured limits.
Income
Taxes
The
Company adopted SFAS 109,
“Accounting for Income
Taxes.” Under SFAS
109, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are computed for differences
between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities that
will result in taxable or deductible amounts in the future, based on enacted tax
laws and rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected
to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary,
to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount expected to be
realized.
In June
2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes, an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income
Taxes”, effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2007. FIN 48
clarifies the recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before
being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on
disclosure and other matters. The adoption of FIN 48 had no impact on the
Company’s financial position.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company accounts for stock-based compensation under SFAS 123(R) “Share-Based Payment” which requires measurement
of compensation cost for all stock-based awards at fair value on the date of
grant and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards
expected to vest. The fair value of stock options is determined using the
Black-Scholes valuation model.
Loss
Per Share
Basic
earnings or loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding. Diluted earnings or loss per share is based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive common stock
equivalents. Basic earnings/loss per share is computed by dividing net income
applicable to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding (denominator) for the period. All earnings or loss per
share amounts in the financial statements are basic earnings or loss per share,
as defined by SFAS 128, “Earnings Per
Share.” Convertible securities that could potentially dilute
basic earnings or loss per share in the future, such as options and warrants,
are not included in the computation of diluted earnings or loss per share
because to do so would be antidilutive.
Comprehensive
Income (Loss)
The
Company has adopted SFAS 130, “Reporting Comprehensive
Income,” which establishes standards for reporting and display of
comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. For
2008 and 2007 the Company did not have any items of comprehensive income, other
than net loss.
Foreign
Currency Translation
The
Company translates foreign assets and liabilities of its subsidiaries, other
than those denominated in United States Dollars, at the rate of exchange at the
balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of
exchange throughout the year. Gains or losses from these translations are
reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss), until all
of the investment in the subsidiaries is sold or liquidated. The translation
adjustments do not recognize the effect of income tax because the Company
expects to reinvest the amounts indefinitely in operations.
Transaction
gains (losses) that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions
denominated in a currency other than the local functional currency are included
in the statements of operations.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
determination of fair value of financial instruments is made at a specific point
in time, based on relevant information about financial markets and specific
financial instruments. As these estimates are subjective in nature,
involving uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, they cannot be
determined with precision. Changes in assumptions can significantly affect
estimated fair values. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents,
accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and accounts payable – related parties
approximates their fair value because of the short-term nature of these
instruments. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial
institutions.
Related
Party Transactions
A related
party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the
Company’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Company’s
management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by
or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can
significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A
transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a
transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. (See Note
5).
Recent
and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157),
which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and
expands disclosures about fair-value measurements required under other
accounting pronouncements. It does not change existing guidance as to whether or
not an instrument is carried at fair value. SFAS 157 was effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and
interim periods within those fiscal years. In February 2008, the FASB issued
FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-1 (FSP FAS 157-1), which excludes SFAS 13,
“Accounting for Leases” and certain other accounting pronouncements that address
fair value measurements under SFAS 13, from the scope of SFAS 157. In February
2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 157-2 (FSP 157-2), which
provides a one-year delayed application of SFAS 157 for nonfinancial assets and
liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in
the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least
annually). Therefore, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 157
with respect to financial assets and liabilities only. The Company is
required to adopt SFAS 157 as amended by FSP FAS 157-1 and FSP FAS 157-2 on
January 1, 2009, the beginning of its fiscal year as related to nonfinancial
assets and liabilities. The Company does not expect the application of the
amended aspects of SFAS No. 157 to have a material effect on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.
In
October 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 157-3, “Determining
the Fair Value of a Financial Asset in a Market That Is Not Active” (FSP 157-3),
which clarifies the application of SFAS 157 when the market for a financial
asset is inactive. Specifically, FSP 157-3 clarifies how (1) management’s
internal assumptions should be considered in measuring fair value when
observable data are not present, (2) observable market information from an
inactive market should be taken into account, and (3) the use of broker quotes
or pricing services should be considered in assessing the relevance of
observable and unobservable data to measure fair value. The guidance in FSP
157-3 is effective immediately and did not have an impact on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities-Including an amendment of FASB Statement No.
115,” which is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15,
2007. The statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial
instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company has not elected
the fair value option under SFAS 159 for any instrument, but may elect to do so
in future periods.
In July
2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) issued EITF 07-3, “Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance
Payments for Goods or Services to be Used in Future Research and Development
Activities” (EITF 07-3). EITF 07-3 clarifies the accounting for
nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used or
rendered for research and development activities. EITF 07-3 states that such
payments should be capitalized and recognized as an expense as the goods are
delivered or the related services are performed. If an entity does not expect
the goods to be delivered or the services rendered, the capitalized advance
payment should be charged to expense. EITF 07-3 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2007. The Company’s adoption of EITF 07-3 did not
have an impact on the Company’s financial position or results of
operations.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements, an Amendment of Accounting Research Bulletin
No 51” (SFAS 160). SFAS 160 establishes accounting and reporting
standards for ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the
parent, changes in a parent’s ownership of a noncontrolling interest,
calculation and disclosure of the consolidated net income attributable to the
parent and the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parent’s ownership interest
while the parent retains its controlling financial interest and fair value
measurement of any retained noncontrolling equity investment. SFAS 160 is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early
adoption is prohibited. The Company must adopt SFAS 160 on January 1, 2009, the
beginning of its fiscal year. The Company does not expect the application
of SFAS No. 160 to have a material effect on the consolidated financial
statements.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS 141R, “Business Combinations” (SFAS
141R), which establishes principles and requirements for the reporting entity in
a business combination, including recognition and measurement in the financial
statements of the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any
noncontrolling interest in the acquiree. SFAS 141R applies prospectively to
business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the
beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after
December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The
Company must adopt SFAS 141R on January 1, 2009, the beginning of its fiscal
year. The Company does not expect the application of SFAS 141R to have a
material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
In
December 2007, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) 110, “Share-Based Payment” (SAB
110) which amends SAB 107, “Share-Based Payment,” to
permit public companies, under certain circumstances, to use the simplified
method in SAB 107 for employee option grants after December 31, 2007. Use of the
simplified method after December 2007 is permitted only for companies whose
historical data about their employees’ exercise behavior does not provide a
reasonable basis for estimating the expected term of the options. The Company
currently uses the simplified method to estimate the expected term for employee
option grants as adequate historical experience is not available to provide a
reasonable estimate. SAB 110 is effective for employee options granted after
December 31, 2007. The Company adopted SAB 110 effective January 1, 2008 and
continues applying the simplified method until enough historical experience is
readily available to provide a reasonable estimate of the expected term for
employee option grants.
In June
2008, the FASB issued Staff Position EITF 03-06-1, “Determining Whether Instruments
Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities”
(FSP EITF 03-06-1). FSP EITF 03-06-1 provides that unvested share-based payment
awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents
(whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in
the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method in SFAS
No. 128, “Earnings per Share” and is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2008. The Company does not believe the implementation of
FSP EITF 03-06-1 will have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.
Note
3. Loss Per Share
Basic
earnings or loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of
shares outstanding during the period of the financial statements. Diluted
earnings or loss per share are based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding and dilutive common stock equivalents. All share and per
share information are adjusted retroactively to reflect stock splits and changes
in par value, when applicable. All loss per share amounts in the financial
statements are basic loss per share because the inclusion of stock options and
warrants outstanding would be antidilutive.

The
Company amortizes all capitalized costs of oil and gas properties on the
unit-of-production method using proved reserves. The Company has not
yet obtained reserve studies with estimated proved reserve quantities because of
its recent acquisition of these properties and also because these properties
recently began producing. Management is assessing geographic and
production data to determine the need for reserves studies. Therefore
at December 31, 2008, there were no capitalized costs subject to
amortization.
Unproven
properties costs as of December 31, 2008 are associated with an exploratory oil
well which had not been completed and is not producing. These exploratory
well costs have also been excluded from amortization. Management
expects that the recompletion efforts will be finished during 2009 at which time
the capitalized costs will be added to the amortization base.
Properties
which are not being amortized are assessed quarterly, on a property-by-property
basis, to determine whether they are recorded at the lower of cost or fair
market value. As a result of this analysis, the Company recorded an
impairment of $93,444 for 2008. This impairment is similar to
amortization and therefore is not added to the cost of properties being
amortized.

Company’s Own Stock.” In accordance with the EITF, the fair
value of such warrants is classified as a component of permanent equity within
additional paid-in capital and is calculated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes Option pricing model.
Each of
the Company’s warrants outstanding entitles the holder to purchase one share of
the Company’s common stock for each warrant share held. No warrants were
exercised during the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007. A summary of the

intrinsic value for all “in-the-money” options (i.e. the difference between the
Company’s closing stock price on the last trading day of the year ended December
31, 2008 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of shares) that would
have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their
options on December 31, 2008. This amount is based on the fair market value of
the Company’s stock. Total intrinsic value of options exercised was $nil at

the same exercise price, term and grant date fair value.
During
the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company granted 200,000 and nil
stock options awards. For purposes of determining the stock-based
compensation expense for stock option awards granted, the Black-Scholes Option
Pricing Model was used with the following
assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 195.38%, risk-free
interest rate
of 2.97%, and expected
term of 5 years.
The
weighted average fair value of options granted during the year ended December
31, 2008 was $0.73 per share.
For the
year ended December 31, 2008, stock option compensation expense of
$19,360 was recognized as general and administrative
expenses. There was no stock based compensation expense for the year
ended December 31, 2007. The Company had $125,987 of total
unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options as of December,
31 2008, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of
approximately 4.7 years.
The
Company does not repurchase shares to fulfill the requirements of options that
are exercised. Further, the Company issue new shares when options are
exercised.
8.
Income Taxes
There is
no current or deferred tax expense for 2008 and 2007, due to the Company’s loss
position. The benefits of temporary differences have not been recorded. The
deferred tax consequences of temporary differences in reporting items for
financial statement and income tax purposes are recognized, as appropriate.
Realization of the future tax benefits related to the deferred tax assets is
dependent on many factors, including the Company’s ability to generate taxable
income within the net operating loss carryforward period. Management
has considered these factors in reaching its conclusion as to the valuation
allowance for financial reporting purposes and has recorded a full valuation
allowance against the deferred tax asset. The income tax effect, utilizing a 34%
income tax rate, of temporary differences comprising the deferred tax assets and
deferred tax liabilities is a result of the following at
December 31:

The
Company has available net operating loss carryforwards of approximately
$3,771,000 for tax purposes to offset future taxable income which expires
commencing 2011 through to the year 2028. Pursuant to the Tax Reform Act of
1986, annual utilization of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards may
be limited if a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50% is deemed to
occur within any three-year period. The tax years 2005 through 2007 remain
open to examination by federal agencies and other jurisdictions in which it
operates.

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the

its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted
an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure
controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the
period covered by this annual report. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of December 31,
2008 that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective such
that the information required to be disclosed in the Company’s United States
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) reports is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and

chief executive officer and chief financial officer, has evaluated the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December
31, 2008 based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO). Based on
this evaluation, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2008, our
internal control over financial reporting is effective in providing reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation
of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s
independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over
financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the
Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary
rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in
this annual report.
There
have been no changes in internal controls, or in factors that could materially
affect internal controls, subsequent to the date that management, including the
Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, completed their
evaluation.

Compensation
of Directors
Our Board
of Directors determines the non-employee directors’ compensation for serving on
the Board and its committees. In establishing director compensation, the Board
is guided by the following goals:
|
·
|
Compensation
should consist of a combination of cash and equity awards that are
designed to fairly pay the directors for work required on behalf of a
company of the size and scope of Entheos Technologies,
Inc.;
|
|
·
|
Compensation
should align the directors’ interests with the long-term interests of
stockholders; and
|
|
·
|
Compensation
should assist with attracting and retaining qualified
directors.
|
The
Company does not pay director compensation to directors who are also employees.
Non-employee directors receive between $2,000 and $2,500 per month for their
services as directors; each is entitled to be reimbursed for reasonable and
necessary expenses incurred on our behalf. During the years ended December
31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, $25,000, $1,500 and $31,800 respectively was paid to
directors for services rendered. Stock-based compensation
expense relating to director stock option awards totaled $14,519, $0 and $0
for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 respectively.
Each non
employee director receives an initial stock option entitling him to purchase up
to 50,000 shares of stock at a price per share equal to the closing price of our
common stock, as reported on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board on
the date of the option grant; the options vest at the rate of 20% per annum
in arrears.
We have
no other arrangements pursuant to which any our directors were compensated
during the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 for services as a
director.
In
accordance with applicable SEC rules and regulations, the following table
reports all compensation the Company paid to non-employee directors during the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2008:

(3) On
September 12, 2008 the Company granted a stock option to purchase 50,000 shares
of common stock to each to Mr. Sidhu, Mr. Hudson and Mr. Fabio at an exercise
price of $1.00 per share. Of each 50,000 grant, the first 10,000
stock options vest on September 12, 2009 and then 10,000 stock options will vest
every year thereafter. The fair value of each 50,000 stock option grant was
$29,069, estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the
following weighted average assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, expected
volatility of 195.38%, risk-free interest rates of 2.970%, and expected lives of
5 years.
Directors’
and Officers’ Liability Insurance
We do not
currently maintain directors and officers liability insurance coverage. We are
currently reviewing insurance policies and anticipate obtaining coverage for our
board of directors and officers.
Legal
Proceedings
During
the past five years, except as set forth below, none of our directors, executive
officers, promoters or control persons has been:
|
·
|

subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of
which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the
time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that

CORPORATE
GOVERNANCE
Director
Independence
We are
not listed on a US securities exchange and, therefore, not subject to the
corporate governance requirements of any such exchange, including those related
to the independence of directors. However, at this time, after considering all
of the relevant facts and circumstances our, Board of Directors has determined
that each of Messrs. Sidhu and Hudson are independent from the Company’s
management and qualify as “independent directors” under the standards of
independence under the applicable National Association of Securities Dealers
(“ NASD ”) listing
standards. This means that, in the judgment of the Board of Directors, none
of those directors (1) is an officer or employee of the Company or its
