Notes
to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE
1:
|
ORGANIZATION
AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
|
Organization
The
financial statements include the accounts of North American Energy Resources,
Inc. (formerly Mar Ked Mineral Exploration, Inc.) (“NAER”) and its wholly owned
subsidiary, North American Exploration, Inc. (“NAE”) (formerly Signature Energy,
Inc.) (collectively the “Company”).
NAER was
incorporated in Nevada on August 22, 2006 as Mar Ked Mineral Exploration, Inc.
and changed its name to North American Energy Resources, Inc. on August 11,
2008. NAE was incorporated in Nevada on August 18, 2006 as Signature
Energy, Inc. and changed its name to North American Exploration, Inc. on June 2,
2008.
The
condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report have been
prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission for interim reporting and include all adjustments
(consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of
management, necessary for a fair presentation. These condensed
consolidated financial statements have not been audited.
Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations for interim reporting. The Company believes that the
disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading. However, these consolidated financial statements should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended April 30,
2009, which is included in the Company’s Form 10-K dated April 30,
2009. The financial data for the interim periods presented may not
necessarily reflect the results to be anticipated for the complete
year.
In
preparing the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements, the Company has reviewed, as determined necessary by the Company's
management, events that have occurred after January 31, 2010, up until the
issuance of the financial statements, which occurred on March 15,
2010.
Acquisition
On July
28, 2008, the shareholders of NAE entered into a stock purchase agreement with
NAER. NAER issued 420,000 restricted shares of its common stock to
the shareholders of NAE in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding stock
of NAE. Completion of the stock purchase agreement resulted in the
shareholders of NAE having control of NAER. Accordingly, the
transaction was recorded for accounting purposes as the acquisition of NAE by
NAER with NAE as the acquirer (reverse acquisition). The financial
statements of the Company prior to July 28, 2008 are those of
NAE. Formerly, NAER used a November 30 year-end. As a
result of the reverse acquisition, the Company now utilizes the April 30
year-end of NAE.
8
Business
NAE is an
independent oil and natural gas company engaged in the acquisition, exploration
and development of oil and natural gas properties and the production of oil and
natural gas. The Company operates in the upstream segment of the oil
and gas industry with activities, including the drilling, completion and
operation of oil and gas wells in Oklahoma. The Company also has an
interest in a pipeline in its area of operations which is used for gathering its
gas and the gas production of other producers.
Exploration
stage
The
Company is in the exploration stage and has realized only nominal revenue to
date. The decline in gas prices has placed the Company's original gas
development plans in Washington County, Oklahoma on
hold. The Company has plans to raise funds in order to develop
additional oil leases. Accordingly, the operation of the Company is
presented as those of a development stage enterprise, from its inception (August
18, 2006).
Going
concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will
continue as a going concern. The Company commenced operations in
September 2006.
At
January 31, 2010 and April 30, 2009 the Company had a working capital deficit of
$107,040 and working capital of $73,006, respectively. The Company
has an accumulated deficit of $1,775,347 which includes a loss of $647,695
during the nine months ended January 31, 2010.
The
Company had relied on receiving an additional $1,300,000 from the prior
shareholders to fund its planned drilling and development program. As
discussed in Note 3, the prior shareholders decided to default on their
agreement. Accordingly, the Company will plan to meet its capital
requirements for the next year with private placements of its common stock or
advances from related parties.
In
addition, the Company expects to sell the majority of its interest in its
existing developmental drilling prospects on a 1/3 for 1/4 basis and be carried
to the tanks, thus having limited additional up-front capital costs on existing
properties. This method of operation allows the company to
participate in a larger number of prospects with a relatively low capital
outlay.
These
conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a
going concern. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that may result from the outcome of these
uncertainties.
9
Prior
operations
Prior to
the acquisition of NAE, NAER was an exploration stage company engaged in the
acquisition, exploration and development of resource properties, principally
gold, in the Province of British Columbia, Canada. Since the
acquisition of NAE, NAER has abandoned its plans to develop gold leases and will
concentrate future resources in acquiring, exploring and developing oil and
natural gas properties.
Fiscal
year

Reclassification

reclassifications have been made in the financial statements at January 31, 2009
and for the periods then ended to conform to the January 31, 2010
presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on net
loss.
Recent
accounting pronouncements
Below is
a listing of the most recent accounting standards and their effect on the
Company.
In
February 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting
Standards Update 2010-08 (ASU 2010-08), Technical Corrections to Various
Topics. This amendment eliminated inconsistencies and outdated
provisions and provided the needed clarifications to various topics within Topic
815. The amendments are effective for the first reporting period
(including interim periods) beginning after issuance (February 2, 2010), except
for certain amendments. The amendments to the guidance on accounting
for income taxes in a reorganization (Subtopic 852-740) should be applied to
reorganizations for which the date of the reorganization is on or after the
beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December
15, 2008. For those reorganizations reflected in interim financial
statements issued before the amendments in this Update are effective,
retrospective application is required. The clarifications of the
guidance on the embedded derivates and hedging (Subtopic 815-15) are effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009, and should be applied to
existing contracts (hybrid instruments) containing embedded derivative features
at the date of adoption. The Company does not expect the provisions
of ASU 2010-08 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company.
In
January 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting
Standards Update 2010-07 (ASU 2010-07), Not-for-Profit Entities (Topic 958):
Not-for-Profit Entities: Mergers and Acquisitions. This amendment to
Topic 958 has occurred as a result of the issuance of FAS 164. The
Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-07 to have a material effect
on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the
Company.
10
In
January 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting
Standards Update 2010-06 (ASU 2010-06), Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
(Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value
Measurements. This amendment to Topic 820 has improved disclosures
about fair value measurements on the basis of input received from the users of
financial statements. This is effective for interim and annual
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures
about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of
activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim
periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is
permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-06
to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or
cash flows of the Company.
In
January 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting
Standards Update 2010-05 (ASU 2010-05), Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic
718). This standard codifies EITF Topic D-110 Escrowed Share
Arrangements and the Presumption of Compensation.
In
January 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting
Standards Update 2010-04 (ASU 2010-04), Accounting for Various Topics—Technical
Corrections to SEC Paragraphs.
In
January 2010, the FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board) issued Accounting
Standards Update 2010-03 (ASU 2010-03), Extractive Activities—Oil and Gas (Topic
932): Oil and Gas Reserve Estimation and Disclosures. This amendment
to Topic 932 has improved the reserve estimation and disclosure requirements by
(1) updating the reserve estimation requirements for changes in practice and
technology that have occurred over the last several decades and (2) expanding
the disclosure requirements for equity method investments. This is
effective for annual reporting periods ending on or after December 31,
2009. However, an entity that becomes subject to the disclosures
because of the change to the definition oil- and gas- producing activities may
elect to provide those disclosures in annual periods beginning after December
31, 2009. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company
does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-03 to have a material effect on the
financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the
Company.
In
January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02, Consolidation
(Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a
Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not
change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in
ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict
between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss
recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will
be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first
adopts FAS 160 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities
that have already adopted FAS 160, the amendments are effective at the beginning
of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15,
2009. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to the first period that
an entity adopted FAS 160. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU
2010-02 on January 31, 2010, with no effect on the financial position, results
of operations or cash flows of the Company.
11
In
January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic
505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and
Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). This
amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to
shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a limit on
the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes
of applying Topics 505 and 260. Effective for interim and annual periods ending
on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective
basis. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2010-01 on January
31, 2010 with no effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash
flows of the Company.
In
December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-17,
Consolidations (Topic 810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises
Involved with Variable Interest Entities. This Accounting Standards
Update amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for Statement
167. In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167 (ASC Topic 810),
“Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS 167”). SFAS
167 amends the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities.
The provisions of SFAS 167 significantly affect the overall consolidation
analysis under FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). SFAS 167 is effective
as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after November 15,
2009. SFAS 167 will be effective for the Company on May 1, 2010. The Company
does not expect the provisions of SFAS 167 to have a material effect on the
financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the
Company.
In
December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-16, Transfers
and Servicing (Topic 860): Accounting for Transfers of Financial
Assets. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB Accounting
Standards Codification for Statement 166. In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No.
166, (ASC Topic 860) “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment
of FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS 166”). The provisions of SFAS 166, in part,
amend the derecognition guidance in FASB Statement No. 140, eliminate the
exemption from consolidation for qualifying special-purpose entities and require
additional disclosures. SFAS 166 is effective for financial asset transfers
occurring after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after
November 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the provisions of SFAS 166 to
have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash
flows of the Company.
12
In
October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-15, Accounting
for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance
or Other Financing. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB
Accounting Standard Codification for EITF 09-1. In July 2009, the
FASB ratified the consensus reached by EITF (Emerging Issues Task Force) issued
EITF No. 09-1, (ASC Topic 470) “Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in
Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance” (“EITF 09-1”). The
provisions of EITF 09-1, clarifies the accounting treatment and disclosure of
share-lending arrangements that are classified as equity in the financial
statements of the share lender. An example of a share-lending
arrangement is an agreement between the Company (share lender) and an investment
bank (share borrower) which allows the investment bank to use the loaned shares
to enter into equity derivative contracts with investors. EITF 09-1
is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2009 and
requires retrospective application for all arrangements outstanding as of the
beginning of fiscal years beginning on or after December 15,
2009. Share-lending arrangements that have been terminated as a
result of counterparty default prior to December 15, 2009, but for which the
entity has not reached a final settlement as of December 15, 2009 are within the
scope. Effective for share-lending arrangements entered into on or
after the beginning of the first reporting period that begins on or after June
15, 2009. The Company does not expect the provisions of EITF 09-1 to
have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash
flows of the Company.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-14, Software
(Topic 985): Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software
Elements. This update changed the accounting model for revenue
arrangements that include both tangible products and software
elements. Effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered
into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15,
2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not
expect the provisions of ASU 2009-14 to have a material effect on the financial
position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, Revenue
Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue
Arrangements. This update addressed the accounting for
multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or
services (deliverables) separately rather than a combined unit and will be
separated in more circumstances than under existing US GAAP. This
amendment has eliminated the residual method of allocation. Effective
prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in
fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is
permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-13 to have a
material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows
of the Company.
In
September 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-12, Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Investments in Certain Entities That
Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). This update
provides amendments to Topic 820 for the fair value measurement of investments
in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (or its
equivalent). It is effective for interim and annual periods ending
after December 15, 2009. Early application is permitted in financial
statements for earlier interim and annual periods that have not been issued. The
Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2009-12 on January 31, 2010, with no
effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the
Company.
13
In June
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168 (ASC Topic 105), “The FASB Accounting
Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles – a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162” (“SFAS No. 168”). Under
SFAS No. 168 the “FASB Accounting Standards Codification” (“Codification”) will
become the source of authoritative US GAAP to be applied by nongovernmental
entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also
sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. SFAS No. 168 is effective for
financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after
September 15, 2009. On the effective date, the Codification will
supersede all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All
other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the
Codification will become non-authoritative. SFAS No. 168 was effective for the
Company’s interim quarterly period beginning August 1, 2009. The adoption of
SFAS No. 168 did not have an impact on the financial position, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company.
In April
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 164, (ASC Topic 810) “Not-for-Profit Entities:
Mergers and Acquisitions – including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 142”
(“SFAS 164”). The provisions of SFAS 164 provide guidance on accounting for a
combination of not-for-profit entities either via merger or
acquisition. SFAS 164 is effective for mergers occurring on or after
the beginning of an initial reporting period beginning on or after December 15,
2009 and acquisitions occurring on or after the beginning of the first annual
reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2009. The Company does not
expect the provisions of SFAS 164 to have a material effect on the financial
position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In
September 2008, the FASB issued exposure drafts that eliminate qualifying
special purpose entities from the guidance of SFAS No. 140 (ASC Topic 860),
“Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and
Extinguishments of Liabilities,” and FASB Interpretation 46 (ASC
Topic 810) (revised December 2003), “Consolidation of Variable
Interest Entities − an interpretation of ARB No. 51 (ASC Topic 810),”
as well as other modifications. While the proposed revised
pronouncements have not been finalized and the proposals are subject to further
public comment, the Company anticipates the changes will not have a significant
impact on the Company’s financial statements. The changes would be
effective May 1, 2010, on a prospective basis.

included workover costs on several gas wells which were shut-in during January
2009.
17
Non-cash
compensation represents the current period charge for stock which has been
issued for consulting contracts. The 2010 expense is primarily the
amortization of contracts with a period ranging from one to three
years. The 2009 expense is primarily from one agreement which was
expensed at inception.
During
the 2009 period, the Company wrote off the remaining balance of a note
receivable as uncollectible.
Other
general and administrative expense was higher in 2009 primarily due to higher
consulting costs, software costs and field supervision costs.

Oil and
natural gas production expenses were $11,105 in 2010 and $32,038 in
2009. The majority of the difference is the expenses associated with
gas wells which were producing in 2009 and shut-in during January 2009
($20,728).
During
2010, the Company impaired its producing reserves by $108,000 based on reserve
estimates updated to October 31, 2009.
Non-cash
compensation represents the current period charge for stock which has been
issued for consulting contracts. The 2010 expense is primarily the
amortization of contracts with a period ranging from one to three
years. The 2009 expense is primarily from one agreement which was

The
Company recorded an allowance for bad debts of $10,000 in 2010 on its joint
interest receivables. During the 2009 period, the Company wrote off

period.
LIQUIDITY,
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS
At
January 31, 2010, we had $493 in cash and a working capital deficit of
$107,040. Comparatively, we had cash of $27,966 and working capital
of $73,006 at April 30, 2009. The principal elements of the change in
working capital were an increase in prepaid consulting contracts of $360,772 and
an increase in current liabilities of $384,428 for the current note payable to a
related party which was included as non-current at April 30, 2009 and the
related accrued interest of $36,190.
On July
28, 2008, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding stock of NAE for 420,000
shares of our common stock pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement
("SPA"). Completion of the SPA resulted in the shareholders of NAE
having control of NAEY.
The SPA
provided that NAEY was to have $1,500,000 in cash and no liabilities at
closing. At July 28, 2008, the closing date, NAEY had $150,000 of the
required cash and on August 28, 2008, the parties to the SPA entered into a
Modification Agreement ("MA") which provided an extension until January 27, 2009
for the additional cash to be contributed to the Company. At January
27, 2009, the Company had received an additional $50,000 and was still short
$1,300,000 of the agreed amount. The MA provided that the Buyer would
make contingent issuances of shares to the Seller equal to 95% of all the
outstanding stock after issuance. Accordingly, effective April 30,
2009, an additional 13,250,381 shares were issued to the Sellers.
We
estimate that our total planned cash expenditures over the next twelve months
will be approximately $120,000 for corporate overhead. We expect to
utilize excess funds, when available, to acquire additional acreage for future
drilling operations and plan to issue our common stock for certain services when
possible.
The
Company had relied on receiving an additional $1,300,000 from the prior
shareholders to fund its planned drilling and development program. As
discussed in Note 3, the prior shareholders decided to default on their
agreement. Accordingly, the Company will plan to meet its capital
requirements for the next year with private placements of its common stock or
advances from related parties.
In
addition, the Company expects to sell the majority of its interest in its
existing developmental drilling prospects on a 1/3 for 1/4 basis and be carried
to the tanks, thus having limited additional up-front capital costs on existing
properties. This method of operation allows the company to
participate in a larger number of prospects with a relatively low capital
outlay.
These
conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a
going concern. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that may result from the outcome of these
uncertainties.

CASH
USED IN OPERATING ACTIVITIES
Cash used
in operating activities was $27,378 for the nine-month period ended January 31,
2010 and cash used in operations was $266,540 for the comparable 2009
period. The majority of the increase is attributed to using the funds
received from joint interest participants to pay drilling and development costs
incurred during the 2009 period. There was only very limited activity
in the 2010 period. The majority of the funds required for drilling
and developing existing acreage will come from prepayments from joint interest
participants. Aside from overhead, we expect to utilize the majority
of our excess capital, if any, to acquire additional leases.
CASH
FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES
We
received $119,830 in cash from the acquisition of NAE by NAEN during the nine
months ended January 31, 2009. In addition, we incurred $95 and
$38,275 in expenditures for oil and gas properties and equipment in 2010 and
2009, respectively. The 2009 amount was primarily for costs for a
salt water disposal well. In 2009, we loaned a shareholder
$8,519.
CASH
FROM FINANCING ACTIVITIES
During
2009 we received $50,000 as the final shareholder contribution, discussed above,
and repaid related party loans in the amount of $36,750.
GOING
CONCERN
We have
not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining a
replacement for the shareholder contributions discussed above to pursue our
business plan. For these reasons, there is doubt we will be able to
continue as a going concern, since we are dependent upon an as yet unknown
source to provide sufficient funds to finance future operations until our
revenues are adequate to fund our cost of operations.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
The
Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reviewed and
evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures
(as defined in Rules 240.13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of January 31, 2010. Based on
that review and evaluation, which included inquiries made to certain other
consultants of the Company, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s current
disclosure controls and procedures, as designed and implemented, are not
effective, due to a lack of segregation of duties, in ensuring that information
relating to the Company required to be disclosed in the reports the Company
files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the
Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including insuring that
such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management,
including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
(b) Changes in
Internal Controls
There
have been no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that
could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the
evaluation described above, including any corrective actions with regard to
significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
