Note about Forward-Looking Statements
This Form 10-K contains
forward-looking statements, such as statements relating to our financial
condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and
business operations. These statements relate to expectations concerning matters
that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements reflect our
current views and expectations based largely upon the information currently
available to us and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainties. Although
we believe our expectations are based on reasonable assumptions, they are not
guarantees of future performance and there are a number of important factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or
implied by such forward-looking statements. By making these forward-looking
statements, we do not undertake to update them in any manner except as may be
required by our disclosure obligations in filings we make with the Securities
and Exchange Commission under the Federal securities laws. Our actual results
may differ materially from our forward-looking statements.
PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
The following is a
summary of some of the information contained in this document. Unless the
context requires otherwise, references in this document to "T-Rex" or the
"Company" are to T-Rex Oil, Inc.
BUSINESS STRUCTURE
T-Rex Oil, Inc. was organized
under the laws of the State of Nevada as Rancher Energy Corp. ("Rancher.")
On October 8, 2014, as approved
by our board of directors and a written consent of our majority shareholder, an
amendment to the Articles of Incorporation was filed in order to authorize a
reverse split of the common stock, issued and outstanding, on a one (1) new
share for three hundred fifty (350) old shares basis. At the same time, the
Articles of Incorporation were amended change our authorized capital to
275,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock and 50,000,000 shares of
$0.01 par value preferred stock. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA")
approved the amendment, effective October 29, 2014.
On October 17, 2014, we merged
into our wholly owned subsidiary, T-Rex Oil, Inc., a Colorado corporation and
as a result were re-domiciled in the state of Colorado.
Prior to August 2014, we had
minimal operations that were focused mainly on administrative activities, the
identification of potential oil and gas prospects, and one prospect
participation in Colorado that was rescinded in June 2014, as discussed below.
We
are an energy company, focused on the acquisition, exploration, development and
production of oil and natural gas. We have acquired oil and natural gas
properties located in the western United States, mainly in the Rocky Mountain
region. Our goal is to drill and produce oil and gas cost effectively, by
concentrating our efforts in proven oil rich areas where we have in-house
geologic and operating experience.
CORPORATE ACTIVITIES
PetroShare
Participation Agreement
In
September and October 2013, the Company (then Rancher) negotiated and became
party to a Participation Agreement for the drilling of two wells in the
Niobrara formation in Moffat County in northwestern Colorado with PetroShare
Corp. ("PetroShare"), an unaffiliated entity, was the operator of the prospect.
Rancher and PetroShare had previously entered into a non-binding letter of
intent by which the two parties were negotiating and pursuing a business
combination (the "LOI"). Rancher contributed its share to the drilling and
completion of the two wells of approximately $1,200,000. Disputes then
developed between Rancher
-4-
and PetroShare with respect to the wells and the
contemplated business combination. On March 27, 2014, the Board of Rancher
approved an arrangement to settle with PetroShare and on May 5, 2014, the
parties entered into an agreement to settle their claims which required, among
other things, payment of $1,142,237, (such funds were received in full in June
2014), as well as mutual releases that become effective in June 2014. The
settlement agreement acknowledges that neither Rancher nor PetroShare admits any
liability to the other.
Rancher
did not convey any properties or assets to PetroShare, but (upon receipt of the
final payment from PetroShare) Rancher acknowledged that the Participation
Agreement and Rancher's rights under the related joint operating agreement had
been terminated. Inasmuch as Rancher had never received an assignment of any
interest in the oil and gas leases, it had not obligation or right to assign
any interests to PetroShare or to any other person.
Terex Energy Corp Securities
Purchase Agreement
On August 19, 2014, Terex Energy
Corp ("Terex") entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement to purchase 371,003
shares (adjusted for reverse split) of our restricted common stock from us. After
such purchase, Terex held approximately 52% of the issued and outstanding
common stock of the Company, at that time. As part of the Exchange Agreement,
discussed below, with the Terex shareholders, these shares were returned to the
Company and cancelled.
Terex Exchange Agreements
On December 22, 2014, we entered
into the Exchange Agreements with the Terex shareholders for 100% of the shares
of Terex. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, we agreed to issue 7,385,700
shares of our restricted common stock for 100% of the issued and outstanding
common stock of Terex. The shares are to be exchanged on a one for one basis. As
a result, Terex became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
In addition, 800,000 in warrants
and 900,000 in options issued and outstanding at Terex were exchanged for an
equal number of warrants and options in T-Rex.
The effective date of the
acquisition was December 22, 2014, with T-Rex being the legal acquirer.
However, since T-Rex is a public company, which had nominal activity, the
acquisition was treated as a recapitalization of Terex. Though T-Rex was the
legal acquirer in the acquisition, Terex was the accounting acquirer since its
shareholders gained control of T-Rex. Therefore at the date of the acquisition
the historical financial statements of Terex became those of T-Rex. As a
result, the historical financial statements of Terex supersede any prior
financial statements of T-Rex.
Western Interior Oil & Gas Corporation
Acquisition
On February 24, 2015, we entered into a Share
Exchange Agreement with Western Interior Oil & Gas Corporation ("Western
Interior") and the shareholders of Western Interior. Under the Share Exchange
Agreement we exchanged shares of our common stock for 83% of the issued and
outstanding common stock of Western Interior. The acquisition was closed on March
27, 2014 and effective March 31, 2015. At the time of closing, we issued 7,465,168
shares of our restricted common stock in exchange for shares of Western
Interior. In addition, we have agreed to appoint two nominees of Western
Interior to our Board of Directors at a future date.
On March 31, 2015, we entered
into an amendment to the Share Exchange Agreement whereby we assumed certain
repurchase agreements between Western Interior and its dissident shareholders
and as a result acquired the remaining 17% of Western Interior. As part of
these agreements, we assumed certain promissory notes issued to the dissenting
shareholders in the total amount of $1,770,047 that are secured by Western
Interior's
assets. As a result, Western Interior has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company.

ORGANIZATIONAL
STRUCTURE
Part of our strategy includes the use of
partnerships to not only own individual projects, but to handle the drilling,
completion, operation and raising of capital for the funding of such
prospects. The Company or one of its subsidiaries will then handle the
operation and management of the partnership. T-Rex Oil LLC #1 is one such
partnership that is managed by T-Rex.
Terex Energy Corp
Terex was incorporated in the State of Colorado in February
2014. Terex has interests in oil and gas properties. Prior to the share
exchange with T-Rex, Terex had acquired interests in oil and gas prospects and
properties discussed herein. Terex is an operator of oil and gas
properties owned by the Company and its subsidiaries.
T-Rex Oil LLC, #1
T-Rex Oil LLC, #1 ("T-Rex #1") is a Colorado limited
liability company organized in December 2014. T-Rex is the manager of
T-Rex #1 and manages the Sioux County, Nebraska project. The Company
doesn't have an equity interest in T-Rex #1.
Western Interior Oil & Gas Corporation
Western Interior was incorporate in the State of Wyoming
in August 2005. Western Interior has producing and developmental oil and gas
properties in southwest central Wyoming. Upon the acquisition of Western
Interior, Mr. Jon Nicolaysen, an officer and director of T-Rex was appointed
the Chief Executive Officer of Western Interior.
CORPORATE STRATEGY
Our approach is to acquire Proven Developed
Producing properties that are also de-risk. The ideal candidate will also
include Proven Undeveloped well sites, which should supply upside development
potential, ("running room.") Specifically, properties that have the advantage
of having established producing oil and/or natural gas wells that have
drillable offset locations and have wells that may be shut-in but are
candidates for re-working or re-completion, are high priority acquisition
targets.
Our acquisition strategy also takes older wells
that are shut in or have lower production results and applies new and existing
technologies to work-over and/or recomplete so as to increase production and
ultimate recovery. Technologies to be deployed include 3-D seismic imaging
to target undeveloped areas of the
-6-
reservoir that contain remaining primary reserves;
horizontal drilling to increase recoveries; as well as secondary and tertiary
recovery methods to increase ultimate produced reserves.
We intend to achieve success through the following:
Build
a Portfolio of Low-Risk, High-Return O&G Assets in the Rocky Mountain
Region
Acquire,
Explore & Develop Assets to Reach an Annual Production Rate of 500 to 1,000
BBls per Day in 2015
Utilize
Scalable Financial Model to Drive Top- And Bottom-Line Results
Leverage
Expertise of the Leadership Team to Build a Strong Track Record
OIL AND GAS PROJECTS
During
the fiscal years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we focused efforts on the
acquisition of properties that met certain criteria for both exploration and
development and work-over projects. With an initial focus on the Rocky
Mountain Region, our current projects are found primarily in Wyoming and
Nebraska. Additional information as to our oil and gas projects can be found
in Item 2 of this Filing.
Wyoming
As part of the acquisition of
Western Interior, we acquired approximately 15,896 gross acres
spread across the Big Horn Basin, the Wind River Basin and south central
Wyoming.
-7-
Properties held by Western Interior include:
Big Horn Basin
Prospect
The Big Horn Basin,
located in north-central Wyoming is a geological structural basin of
sedimentary rocks dating from the Cambrian to Miocene. The principal
productive reservoir of oil in the Big Horn Basin to date has been the
Pennsylvanian Tensleep Formation. Other producing horizons include the
Mississippian Madison Limestone, Permian Phosphoria and the Cretaceous Frontier
Sandstone.
Our Big Horn Basin
projects currently produce from the Triassic Crow Mountain, Permian Phosphoria,
and the Frontier formations. They provide us with both development and
exploration opportunities.
The Big Horn Basin Prospect
contains 5 Properties, which have a combination of development and exploration
projects. We expect to drill, subject to reasonable financing, between 16 and
36 wells on the properties over the next two years.
Rawhide
- This is an opportunity for development of existing production and exploration
for deeper reserves. Cumulative historical production to date is approximately
147.0 MBO.
Meeteetse "Deep"
- This is an opportunity to develop a large Phosphoria-Tensleep oil field.
This is the largest project in the Western portfolio. In mid-2008, the Carter
1 discovery well was re-entered and recompleted in the Phosphoria formation to
restore production. Extensive testing and analysis have established Phosphoria
2P reserves on the 240 acre lease block.
Baird Peak - Baird
Peak is a well-defined structure with 200' of closure, with multiple pay
objectives. Historically, it has produced 128,000 BO.
Adam - Adam consists of two adjacent tilted fault blocks along
the Southeast plunge of the Enos Creek Anticline.
Wind River Basin
Located just to the
south of the Big Horn Basin, the Wind River Basin is an asymmetric sedimentary
basin bounded by the Owl Creek Mountains on the North, Casper Arch on the East
and Sweetwater Uplift on the South. The most prolific oil producing horizons
in the Wind River Basin have been the Tensleep, Phosphoria, and Frontier
Formations.
The Wind River Basin
includes production from the Cretaceous Frontier Formation at shallow depths of
3,800 to 4,500 feet. This area produces a light-oil - 42 to 45 API gravity.
The Wind River Basin
contains 2 projects, a combination of existing development and new exploration
targets. The initial plan for these projects is development drilling, where
warranted.
South Central Wyoming
The Rattlesnake Creek
and Overland Trail prospects are the result of thrust-fault controlled
structures. Overland Trail is situated upon a shallow pop-up structure lying
along the Arlington Fault zone with possible recovery from 3 distinct
formations: the Cretaceous Muddy Sandstone, the Jurassic Sundance and the
Permian Casper, with depths ranging from 1,600 to 3,900 feet.
-8-
The Rattlesnake Creek
prospect, sits over a Late-Laramide thrust-fault detachment structure. The
resulting linear anticlinal structure has significant opportunity for
hydrocarbon entrapment in several intervals.
Management is
evaluating existing seismic data, integrating those data into the overall
geologic models and developing an appropriate drilling plan for the
properties. At this time, emphasis is on development and new drilling among
the most promising high-production, low risk properties in this portfolio.
Our other properties in
Wyoming include:
Cole Creek Oil Field,
Wyoming
Located is the
southwest margin of the Powder River Basin in Natrona and Converse Counties.
The Shannon Sand Formation historically is the main oil producing formation in
the field. The Shannon Sand Formation is found at a depth of 4,500 - 5,500 ft.
The Cole Creek Lease
covers approximately 7,000 acres and is located 20 miles to the northeast of Casper,
Wyoming. The lease includes 7 well bores. Currently, these are not
producing and can not be worked on. We intend to drill 3 development wells in late 2016 or early 2017,
depending upon the availability of financing. Contingent on the results of
those 3 wells, additional wells may also be drilled.
The land is under a
Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Held by Production (HBP) lease. Permits will
take up to 1 year for approval, although re-entries and extension permits may
take as little as 30 days.
We intend to focus on
the re-development of the Shannon formation using new technology and 3-D
seismic re-work methods. We intend to drill edge and infill wells initially,
then develop the property for tertiary recovery, using polymer floods,
surfactants and possibly CO2 injection.
Burke Ranch Project,
Natrona County, Wyoming
The Burke Ranch Field of
Wyoming, consists of approximately 4,500 acres located in the southwest corner
of the Powder River Basin. The project has a potential for 40+ development and
exploratory wells. Historically, the Dakota Formation has been the primary
objective. The Burke Ranch Unit was originally developed on 80 acre spacing.
Downsizing the spacing to 40 acres and drilling infill and edge wells offers
low risk and high potential production.
There are 5
additional formations, which appear to be productive at Burke Ranch. There are
good drilling opportunities in the first bench of the Frontier (Wall Creek),
Second Frontier, Niobrara, Mowry, and Tensleep Formations.
The Powder River
Basin was originally known for its coal deposits. The Powder River Basin
contains the well-known Salt Creek Oil Field. Oil and Gas are produced from
rocks ranging from Pennsylvanian to Tertiary. While most of the oil produced
in the Powder River Basin comes from the sandstones in thick sections of
Cretaceous rocks, shale formations have recently become primary targets
locally. This recent upsurge in production in the Wyoming portion of the basin
is largely due to recent technological advancements in horizontal drilling and
hydraulic fracturing techniques.
The project has the
potential to produce, with conventional drilling, from three formations: the
Tensleep, Dakota and the Frontier formations.
-9-
Burke Ranch Field
offers a variety of drilling and development opportunities
Tensleep Formation - new drilling on seismic anomaly
Dakota Formation - additional development of the Dakota Formation
to re-work the field to increase existing production
Frontier Formation - to recomplete the existing wells to access
existing reserves behind pipe.
Most of the Burke
Ranch leasehold is BLM and therefore is subject to Federal regulations. It is
expected that it will take up to 12 months for Drilling Permit approvals to be
obtained. Some wells in the Dakota formation will be recompletions. As such it
is expected that their approval will be obtained in a shorter time frame.
Nebraska
Sioux and Kimball County,
Nebraska
The Sioux County
Project has potential revenue from two sources. The first is through
production from existing wells, the second is from the water injection/disposal
project.
We have development of
the project through the T-Rex #1.
Oil Well
Development
We have a 100% WI and a 75% NRI in the well and key acreage of
240 acres.
We have sufficient acreage to drill two new wells in an up-dip direction
structurally.
The original operator drilled and tested 24-30 BOPH from two
different horizons; initial drilling damaged the formation, so production is
only a fraction of what it tested at.
The well currently produces intermittently and a work over plan
is being developed.
Water Injection -
Disposal Project
Company has a 31.25% WI until payout, at which time the Company
would get an additional 25% working interest for a total of 56.25%.
Water injection well application for permit was submitted and in
early April 2015 it was approved for injection rates of 5,000 barrels of water
per day, pending appeal.
Water injection well has been drilled and cased with 7 inch pipe.
Management believes the well is capable of disposing of up to
11,000 barrels of water per day.
We intend to continue
to develop plans for the water disposal facility
-10-
Utah
Located
adjacent to the Covenant Field in Sevier County, Utah, we have ownership in oil
and gas leases which make up the Covenant Mondo Prospect, subject to a
participating on a well by well basis.
We
have a participation agreement in 3,995 gross acres located along the Central
Utah overthrust belt, specifically the Jurassic Navajo Sandstone reservoir.
The Navajo Sandstone is 740 to 1700 feet thick and is overlaid by the Jurassic
Twin Creek Limestone and underlaid by the Jurassic Kayenta Formation.
During
the latter part of 2014, we drilled the first of two wells that resulted in a
dry hole. During the first part of 2015, we drilled a second well which was
also a dry hole.
Further
plans for the acreage are under review.
COMPETITION,
MARKETS, REGULATION AND TAXATION
Competition
There are a large number of companies and
individuals engaged in the exploration for oil and gas; accordingly, there is a
high degree of competition for desirable properties. However, the staff at
T-Rex is experienced and knowledgeable in the Rocky Mountains and can evaluate
potential acquisitions and opportunities with greater efficiency.
Markets
The availability of a ready market for newly
discovered oil and gas reserves will depend on numerous factors beyond our
control, including the proximity and capacity of refineries, pipelines, and the
effect of state regulation of production and of federal regulations of products
sold in interstate commerce, and recent intrastate sales. The market price of
oil and gas is volatile and beyond our control.
Global
Oil Supply
Currently,
the produced global oil supply is outpacing oil demand which in part, has resulted
in the steeply declining oil prices in late 2014 and early 2015. These price
trends are expected to continue in the near term as foreign producers, continue
to increase production in response to declining prices.
Despite
this, the industry continues to work on a production decline curve, and the
industry continues to focus on trying to replace depleting reserves with more
conventional and cost effective production techniques.
Effect
of Changing Industry Conditions on Drilling Activity
Lower
oil and gas prices have caused a decline in drilling activity in the U.S.
recently. However, such reduced activity will normally result in a decline in
drilling, lease acquisition and equipment costs, and an improvement in the
terms under which drilling prospects are generally available. We cannot predict
what oil and gas prices will be in the future and what effect those prices may
have on drilling activity in general, or on our ability to generate economic
drilling prospects nor to raise the necessary funds with which to drill them.
Effect
of Technology
Evolving
scientific and technological developments in the last five years have not only
provided access to previously unreachable and large reserves, but in many cases
has made the production of such reserves highly profitable. In addition these
developments have taken previously shut in fields/wells and made them once
again economically viable and in some cases, greatly so.
-11-
Government Regulations
Governmental Regulation and
Environmental Consideration.
Oil and Gas: The oil and gas
business in the United States is subject to regulation by both federal and
state authorities, particularly with respect to pricing, allowable rates of
production, marketing and environmental matters.
The production of crude oil and
gas has, in recent years, been the subject of increasing state and federal
controls. No assurance can be given that newly imposed or changed federal laws
will not adversely affect the economic viability of any oil and gas properties
we may acquire in the future. Federal income and "windfall profit" taxes have
in the past affected the economic viability of such properties.
The above paragraphs only give a
brief overview of potential state and federal regulations. Because we have
only acquired specific properties, and because of the wide range of activities
in which we may participate, it is impossible to set forth in detail the
potential impact federal and state regulations may have on us.
The Department of Energy
The Department of Energy Organization Act (Pub. L.
No. 95-91) became effective October 1, 1977. Under this Act various agencies,
including the Federal Energy Administration (FEA) and the Federal Power
Commission (FPC), have been consolidated to constitute the cabinet-level
Department of Energy (DOE). The Economic Regulatory Administration (ERA), a
semi-independent administration within the DOE, now administers most of the
regulatory programs formerly managed by the FEA, including oil pricing and
allocation. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), an independent
agency within the DOE, has assumed the FPC's responsibility for natural gas
regulation.
Crude Oil and Natural Gas Liquids Price and Allocation Regulation
Pursuant to Executive Order Number 12287, issued
January 28, 1981, President Reagan lifted all existing federal price and
allocation controls over the sale and distribution of crude oil and natural gas
liquids. Executive Order Number 12287 was made effective as of January 28,
1981, and consequently, sales of crude oil and natural gas liquids after
January 27, 1981 are free from federal regulation. The price for such sales
and the supplier-purchaser relationship will be determined by private contract
and prevailing market conditions. As a result of this action, oil which may be
sold by us will be sold at deregulated or free market prices. At various
times, certain groups have advocated the reestablishment of regulations and
control on the sale of domestic oil and gas.
State Regulations
Our production of oil and gas, if any, will be
subject to regulation by state regulatory authorities in the states in which we
may produce oil and gas. In general, these regulatory authorities are
empowered to make and enforce regulations to prevent waste of oil and gas and
to protect correlative rights and opportunities to produce oil and gas as
between owners of a common reservoir. Some regulatory authorities may also
regulate the amount of oil and gas produced by assigning allowable rates of
production.
Environmental Laws.
Oil and gas exploration and development are
specifically subject to existing federal and state laws and regulations
governing environmental quality and pollution control. Such laws and
regulations may substantially increase the costs of exploring for, developing,
or producing oil and gas and may prevent or delay the commencement or
continuation of a given operation.
-12-
All of our operations involving the exploration for
or the production of any minerals are subject to existing laws and regulations
relating to exploration procedures, safety precautions, employee health and
safety, air quality standards, pollution of stream and fresh water sources,
odor, noise, dust, and other environmental protection controls adopted by
federal, state and local governmental authorities as well as the right of
adjoining property owners. We may be required to prepare and present to
federal, state or local authorities data pertaining to the effect or impact
that any proposed exploration for or production of minerals may have upon the environment.
All requirements imposed by any such authorities may be costly, time consuming,
and may delay commencement or continuation of exploration or production
operations.
It may be anticipated that future legislation will
significantly emphasize the protection of the environment, and that, as a
consequence, our activities may be more closely regulated to further the cause
of environmental protection. Such legislation, as well as future
interpretation of existing laws, may require substantial increases in equipment
and operating costs to us and delays, interruptions, or a termination of
operations, the extent to which cannot now be predicted.
Title to Properties.
We are not the record owner of our interest in our
properties and rely instead on contracts with the owner or operator of the
property, pursuant to which, among other things, we have the right to have our
interest placed of record. As is customary in the oil and gas industry, a
preliminary title examination will be conducted at the time unproved properties
or interests are acquired by us. Prior to commencement of drilling operations
on such acreage and prior to the acquisition of proved properties, we will
conduct a title examination and attempt extremely significant defects before
proceeding with operations or the acquisition of proved properties, as we may
deem appropriate.
Our properties are subject to royalty, overriding
royalty and other interests customary in the industry, liens incident to
agreements, current taxes and other burdens, minor encumbrances, easements and
restrictions. Although we are not aware of any material title defects or
disputes with respect to its undeveloped acreage, to the extent such defects or
disputes exist, we would suffer title failures.

We currently have no orders for
sales at this time.

FORWARD LOOKING
STATEMENTS
This document includes
forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, statements relating
to T-Rex's plans, strategies, objectives, expectations, intentions and adequacy
of resources. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown
risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause the Company's actual
results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the
forward-looking statements. These factors include, among others, the
following: our ability of to implement our business strategy; ability to obtain
additional financing; T-Rex limited operating history; unknown liabilities
associated with future acquisitions; ability to manage growth; significant
competition; ability to attract and retain talented employees; and future
government regulations; and other factors described in this filing or in other
of T-Rex's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. T-Rex is under
no obligation, to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements,
whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
RISK
FACTORS RELATED TO OUR COMPANY
Our business has an operating history of only two
years after Bankruptcy emergence and is unproven and therefore risky.
We have only recently begun
operations under the business plan discussed herein. Potential investors should
be made aware of the risk and difficulties encountered by a new enterprise in
the oil and gas industry, especially in view of the intense competition from
existing businesses in the industry.
We
have a lack of revenue history and have a short history of operations.
We have only recently begun
operations in the oil and gas industry. During the year ended March 31, 2015,
we recognized a net loss of $11,043,541 compared to $13,431 during the year
ended March 31, 2014. Though with our acquisition of Western Interior, during
the first quarter of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016, we have started to
recognize revenues from operations, though these are not enough to support
operations.
We are not profitable and the
business effort is considered to be in an early stage of operations. We must
be regarded as a new or development venture with all of the unforeseen costs,
expenses, problems, risks and difficulties to which such ventures are subject.
We are not diversified and
we will be dependent on only one business.
Because of the limited financial
resources that we have, it is unlikely that we will be able to diversify our
operations. Our probable inability to diversify our activities into more than
one area will subject us to economic fluctuations within the energy industry
and therefore increase the risks associated with our operations due to lack of
diversification.
We can give no assurance of
success or profitability to our investors.
There is no assurance that we
will ever operate profitably. There is no assurance that we will generate
revenues or profits, or that the market price of our common stock will be
increased thereby.
We may have a shortage of
working capital in the future which could jeopardize our ability to carry out
our business plan.
Our capital needs consist
primarily of expenses related to geological evaluation, general and
administrative and potential exploration participation and could exceed $10,000,000
in the next twelve months. Such funds are not currently committed.
-14-
If we find oil and gas reserves
to exist on a prospect we will need substantial additional financing to fund
the necessary exploration and development work. Furthermore, if the results of
that exploration and development work are successful, we will need substantial
additional funds for continued development. We will not receive proceeds from
this offering to conduct such work and, therefore, we will need to obtain the
necessary funds either through debt or equity financing, some form of
cost-sharing arrangement with others, or the sale of all or part of the
property. There is no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining any
financing. These various financing alternatives may dilute the interest of our
shareholders and/or reduce our interest in the properties.
We will need additional
financing for which we have no commitments, and this may jeopardize execution
of our business plan.
We have limited funds, and such
funds may not be adequate to carry out the business plan in the oil and gas
industry. Our ultimate success depends upon our ability to raise additional
capital. We have not investigated the availability, source, or terms that
might govern the acquisition of additional capital and will not do so until it
determines a need for additional financing. If we need additional capital, we
have no assurance that funds will be available from any source or, if
available, that they can be obtained on terms acceptable to us. If not
available, our operations will be limited to those that can be financed with
our modest capital.
We may in the future issue
more shares which could cause a loss of control by our present management and
current stockholders.
We may issue further shares as
consideration for the cash or assets or services out of our authorized but
unissued common stock that would, upon issuance, represent a majority of the
voting power and equity of our Company. The result of such an issuance would
be those new stockholders and management would control our Company, and persons
unknown could replace our management at this time. Such an occurrence would
result in a greatly reduced percentage of ownership of our Company by our
current shareholders, which could present significant risks to investors.
We have warrants and
options issued and outstanding which are convertible into our common stock. A
conversion of such equity instruments could have a dilutive effect to existing
shareholders.
At March 31, 2015, we have
warrants issued and outstanding exercisable into 942,858 shares of our common
stock at ranges from $0.10 to $3.50 per share and options issued and
outstanding exercisable into 935,000 shares of common stock at $0.10 per share.
They are exercisable in whole or in part. The exercise of the warrants and/or
options into shares of our common stock could have a dilutive effect to the
holdings of our existing shareholders.
We will depend upon
management but we may at times have limited participation of management.
Our directors are also acting as
our officers. We will be heavily dependent upon their skills, talents, and
abilities, as well as several consultants to us, to implement our business
plan, and may, from time to time, find that the inability of the officers, directors
and consultants to devote their full-time attention to our business results in
a delay in progress toward implementing our business plan. Consultants may be
employed on a part-time basis under a contract to be determined.
Our directors and officers are,
or may become, in their individual capacities, officers, directors, controlling
shareholder and/or partners of other entities engaged in a variety of
businesses. Thus, our officers and directors may have potential conflicts
including their time and efforts involved in participation with other business
entities. Each officer and director of our business may be engaged in
business activities outside of our business, and the amount of time they devote
as Officers and Directors to our business will be up to 40 hours per
week.
Because investors will not be able to manage our business, they should
critically assess all of the information concerning our officers and directors.
-15-
We do not know of any reason
other than outside business interests that would prevent them from devoting
full-time to our Company, when the business may demand such full-time
participation.
Our officers and directors
may have conflicts of interests as to corporate opportunities which we may not
be able or allowed to participate in.
Presently there is no requirement
contained in our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws, or minutes which requires
officers and directors of our business to disclose to us business opportunities
which come to their attention. Our officers and directors do, however, have a
fiduciary duty of loyalty to us to disclose to us any business opportunities which
come to their attention, in their capacity as an officer and/or director or
otherwise. Excluded from this duty would be opportunities which the person
learns about through his involvement as an officer and director of another
company.
We have agreed to
indemnification of officers and directors as is provided by Colorado Statute.
Colorado Revised Statutes provide
for the indemnification of our directors, officers, employees, and agents,
under certain circumstances, against attorney's fees and other expenses
incurred by them in any litigation to which they become a party arising from
their association with or activities our behalf. We will also bear the
expenses of such litigation for any of our directors, officers, employees, or
agents, upon such person's promise to repay us therefore if it is ultimately
determined that any such person shall not have been entitled to
indemnification. This indemnification policy could result in substantial
expenditures by us that we will be unable to recoup.
Our directors' liability to
us and shareholders is limited
Colorado Revised Statutes exclude
personal liability of our directors and our stockholders for monetary damages
for breach of fiduciary duty except in certain specified circumstances.
Accordingly, we will have a much more limited right of action against our
directors than otherwise would be the case. This provision does not affect the
liability of any director under federal or applicable state securities laws.
RISK FACTORS
RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS
Our
business, the oil and gas business has numerous risks which could render us
unsuccessful.
The
search for new oil and gas reserves frequently results in unprofitable efforts,
not only from dry holes, but also from wells which, though productive, will not
produce oil or gas in sufficient quantities to return a profit on the costs
incurred. There is no assurance we will find or produce oil or gas from any of
the wells we have acquired or which may be acquired by us, nor are there any
assurances that if we ever obtain any production it will be profitable.
We have substantial
competitors who have an advantage over us in resources and management.
We are and will continue to be an
insignificant participant in the oil and gas business. Most of our competitors
have significantly greater financial resources, technical expertise and
managerial capabilities than us and, consequently, we will be at a competitive
disadvantage in identifying and developing or exploring suitable prospects.
Competitor's resources could overwhelm our restricted efforts to acquire and
explore oil and gas prospects and cause failure of our business plan.
We will be subject to all
of the market forces in the energy business, many of which could pose a
significant risk to our operations.
The marketing of natural gas and
oil which may be produced by our prospects will be affected by a number of
factors beyond our control. These factors include the extent of the supply
of oil or gas in the market, the availability of competitive fuels, crude oil
imports, the world-wide political situation, price regulation, and other
-16-
factors. Current economic
and market conditions have created dramatic fluctuations in oil prices.
Any significant decrease in the market prices of oil and gas could materially
affect our profitability of oil and gas activities.
There generally are only a
limited number of gas transmission companies with existing pipelines in the
vicinity of a gas well or wells. In the event that producing gas properties
are not subject to purchase contracts or that any such contracts terminate and
other parties do not purchase our gas production, there is assurance that we
will be able to enter into purchase contracts with any transmission companies
or other purchasers of natural gas and there can be no assurance regarding the
price which such purchasers would be willing to pay for such gas. There may,
on occasion, be an oversupply of gas in the marketplace or in pipelines; the
extent and duration may affect prices adversely. Such oversupply may result in
reductions of purchases and prices paid to producers by principal gas pipeline
purchasers. (See "Our Business and Competition, Markets, Regulation and
Taxation.")
We believe investors should
consider certain negative aspects of our operations.
Dry Holes:
We may expend substantial funds acquiring and potentially participating in
exploring properties which we later determine not to be productive. All funds
so expended will be a total loss to us.
Technical
Assistance: We will find it necessary to employ technical assistance
in the operation of our business. As of the date of this Prospectus, we have
not contracted for any technical assistance. When we need it such assistance
is likely to be available at compensation levels we would be able to pay.
Uncertainty
of Title: We will attempt to acquire leases or interests in leases by
option, lease, farmout or by purchase. The validity of title to oil and gas
property depends upon numerous circumstances and factual matters (many of which
are not discoverable of record or by other readily available means) and is
subject to many uncertainties of existing law and our application.
Government
Regulations: The area of exploration of natural resources has become
significantly regulated by state and federal governmental agencies, and such
regulation could have an adverse effect on our operations. Compliance with
statutes and regulations governing the oil and gas industry could significantly
increase the capital expenditures necessary to develop our prospects.
Nature of
our Business: Our business is highly speculative, involves the
commitment of high-risk capital, and exposes us to potentially substantial
losses. In addition, we will be in direct competition with other organizations
which are significantly better financed and staffed than we are.
General
Economic and Other Conditions: Our business may be adversely affected
from time to time by such matters as changes in general economic, industrial
and international conditions; changes in taxes; oil and gas prices and costs;
excess supplies and other factors of a general nature.
Our business is subject to
significant weather interruptions.
Our activities may be subject to
periodic interruptions due to weather conditions. Weather-imposed restrictions
during certain times of the year on roads accessing properties could adversely
affect our ability to benefit from production on such properties or could
increase the costs of drilling new wells because of delays.
-17-
Reserve estimates depend on many assumptions that may turn
out to be inaccurate. Any material inaccuracies in these reserve estimates or
underlying assumptions will materially affect the quantities and present value
of our reserves. The Company's current estimates of reserves could change, potentially
in material amounts, in the future, in particular due to the recent significant
decline in commodity prices.
The process of estimating crude oil and
natural gas reserves is complex and inherently imprecise. It requires
interpretation of available technical data and many assumptions, including
assumptions relating to current and future economic conditions, production
rates, drilling and operating expenses, and commodity prices. Any significant
inaccuracy in these interpretations or assumptions could materially affect our
estimated quantities and present value of our reserves. See Part I,
Item 2 for information about our estimated crude oil and natural gas
reserves, PV-10, and Standardized Measure of discounted future net cash flows
as of May 31, 2015.
In order to prepare reserve estimates,
we must project production rates and the amount and timing of development
expenditures. Our booked proved undeveloped reserves must be developed within
five years from the date of initial booking under SEC reserve rules. Changes in
the timing of development plans that impact our ability to develop such
reserves in the required time frame could result in fluctuations in reserves
between periods as reserves booked in one period may need to be removed in a
subsequent period.
We must also analyze available
geological, geophysical, production and engineering data in preparing reserve
estimates. The extent, quality and reliability of this data can vary with the
uncertainty of decline curves and the ability to model heterogeneity of the
porosity, permeability and pressure relationships in unconventional resources.
The process also requires economic assumptions, based on historical data but
projected into the future, about matters such as crude oil and natural gas prices,
drilling and operating expenses, capital expenditures, taxes and availability
of funds.
The prices used in calculating our
estimated proved reserves are, in accordance with SEC requirements, calculated
by determining the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month
commodity prices for the preceding 12 months. Commodity prices declined
significantly in the fourth quarter of calendar year 2014 and the first quarter
of calendar year 2015 and if such prices do not increase significantly, our
future calculations of estimated proved reserves will be based on lower
commodity prices which could result in our having to remove non-economic
reserves from our proved reserves in future periods.
Actual future production, crude oil and
natural gas prices, revenues, taxes, development expenditures, operating
expenses and quantities of recoverable crude oil and natural gas reserves will
vary and could vary significantly from our estimates. Any significant variance
could materially affect the estimated quantities and present value of our
reserves, which in turn could have an adverse effect on the value of our
assets. In addition, we may adjust estimates of proved reserves, potentially in
material amounts, to reflect production history, results of exploration and
development, prevailing crude oil and natural gas prices and other factors,
many of which are beyond our control.
The
present value of future net revenues from our proved reserves will not
necessarily be the same as the current market value of our estimated crude oil
and natural gas reserves and, in particular, may be reduced due to the recent
significant decline in commodity prices.
You should not assume the present value
of future net revenues from our proved reserves is the current market value of
our estimated crude oil and natural gas reserves. In accordance with SEC rules,
we base the estimated discounted future net revenues from proved reserves on
the 12-month unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month
commodity prices for the preceding twelve months. Actual future prices may be
materially higher or lower than the SEC pricing used in the calculations.
Actual future net revenues from crude oil and natural gas properties will be
affected by factors such as:
-18-
-
the actual prices we
receive for sales of crude oil and natural gas;
-
the actual cost
and timing of development and production expenditures;
-
the timing and
amount of actual production; and
-
changes in
governmental regulations or taxation.
The timing of both our production and
our incurrence of expenses in connection with the development and production of
crude oil and natural gas properties will affect the timing and amount of
actual future net revenues from proved reserves, and thus their actual present
value. In addition, the 10% discount factor we use when calculating discounted
future net revenues may not be the most appropriate discount factor based on
interest rates in effect from time to time and risks associated with our
reserves or the crude oil and natural gas industry in general.
We may be required to write down the carrying values of
our crude oil and natural gas properties if crude oil prices remain at their
current levels or decline further.
Accounting rules require that we
periodically review the carrying values of our crude oil and natural gas
properties for possible impairment. Based on specific market factors, prices,
and circumstances at the time of prospective impairment reviews, and the
continuing evaluation of development plans, production data, economics and
other factors, we may be required to write down the carrying values of our
crude oil and natural gas properties. A write-down results in a non-cash charge
to earnings. We have incurred impairment charges in the past and may incur
additional impairment charges in the future, particularly if crude oil prices
remain at their currently low levels or decline further, which could have a
material adverse effect on our results of operations for the periods in which
such charges are taken
We are subject to significant
operating hazards and uninsured risk in the energy industry.
Our proposed operations will be
subject to all of the operating hazards and risks normally incident to
exploring, drilling for and producing oil and gas, such as encountering unusual
or unexpected formations and pressures, blowouts, environmental pollution and
personal injury. We will maintain general liability insurance but we have not
obtained insurance against such things as blowouts and pollution risks because
of the prohibitive expense. Should we sustain an uninsured loss or liability,
or a loss in excess of policy limits, our ability to operate may be materially
adversely affected.
We are subject to Federal
Income Tax laws and changes therein which could adversely impact us.
Federal income tax laws are of
particular significance to the oil and gas industry in which we engage.
Legislation has eroded various benefits of oil and gas producers and subsequent
legislation could continue this trend. Congress is continually considering
proposals with respect to Federal income taxation which could have a material
adverse effect on our future operations and on our ability to obtain risk
capital which our industry has traditionally attracted from taxpayers in high
tax brackets.
We are subject to
substantial government regulation in the energy industry which could adversely
impact us.
The production and sale of oil
and gas are subject to regulation by state and federal authorities, the spacing
of wells and the prevention of waste. There are both federal and state laws
regarding environmental controls which may necessitate significant capital
outlays, resulting in extended delays, materially affect our earnings potential
and cause material changes in the in our proposed business. We cannot predict
what legislation, if any, may be passed by Congress or state legislatures in
the future, or the effect of such legislation, if any, on us. Such regulations
may have a significant affect on our operating results.
-19-
RISK FACTORS
RELATED TO OUR STOCK
The regulation of penny
stocks by SEC and FINRA may discourage the tradability of our securities.
We are a "penny stock" company.
Our securities are subject to a Securities and Exchange Commission rule that
imposes special sales practice requirements upon broker-dealers who sell such
securities to persons other than established customers or accredited
investors. For purposes of the rule, the phrase "accredited investors" means,
in general terms, institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000, or
individuals having a net worth in excess of $1,000,000, excluding the primary
residence, or having an annual income that exceeds $200,000 (or that, when
combined with a spouse's income, exceeds $300,000). For transactions covered
by the rule, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination
for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the
transaction prior to the sale. Effectively, this discourages broker-dealers
from executing trades in penny stocks. Consequently, the rule will affect the
ability of purchasers in this offering to sell their securities in any market
that might develop therefore because it imposes additional regulatory burdens
on penny stock transactions.
In addition, the Securities and
Exchange Commission has adopted a number of rules to regulate "penny
stocks". Such rules include Rules 3a51-1, 15g-1, 15g-2, 15g-3, 15g-4,
15g-5, 15g-6, 15g-7, and 15g-9 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended. Because our securities constitute "penny stocks" within the
meaning of the rules, the rules would apply to us and to our securities. The
rules will further affect the ability of owners of shares to sell our
securities in any market that might develop for them because it imposes additional
regulatory burdens on penny stock transactions.
Shareholders
should be aware that, according to Securities and Exchange Commission, the
market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and
abuse. Such patterns include (i) control of the market for the security by one
or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (ii)
manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and
false and misleading press releases; (iii) "boiler room" practices involving
high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced
sales persons; (iv) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differentials and markups
by selling broker-dealers; and (v) the wholesale dumping of the same securities
by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired
consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have
occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to
be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who
participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of
practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established
with respect to our securities.
We will pay no foreseeable
dividends in the future.
We have not paid dividends on our
common stock and do not ever anticipate paying such dividends in the
foreseeable future.
Our investors may suffer
future dilution due to issuances of shares for various considerations in the
future.
There may be substantial dilution
to our shareholders purchasing in this Offering as a result of future decisions
of the Board to issue shares without shareholder approval for cash, services,
or acquisitions.
At March 31, 2015, we have
warrants issued and outstanding exercisable into 942,858 shares of our common
stock at ranges from $0.10 to $3.50 per share. In addition, we have options
exercisable into 935,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.10 per
share. The warrants and options are exercisable in whole or in part. The
exercise of the warrants and/or options into shares of our common stock could
have a dilutive effect to the holdings of our existing shareholders.
Rule 144 sales in the
future may have a depressive effect on our stock price.
All of the outstanding shares of
common stock held by our present officers, directors, and affiliate
stockholders are "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As restricted Shares, these shares may
be resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or under
-20-
the
requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemptions from registration under
the Act and as required under applicable state securities laws. Rule 144
provides in essence that a person who has held restricted securities for six
months, under certain conditions, sell every three months, in brokerage
transactions, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1.0% of a
company's outstanding common stock or the average weekly trading volume during
the four calendar weeks prior to the sale. There is no limit on the amount of
restricted securities that may be sold by a nonaffiliate after the owner has
held the restricted securities for a period of six month. A sale under Rule
144 or under any other exemption from the Act, if available, or pursuant to
subsequent registration of shares of common stock of present stockholders, may
have a depressive effect upon the price of the common stock in any market that
may develop.
Our common stock may be
volatile, which substantially increases the risk that you may not be able to
sell your shares at or above the price that you may pay for the shares.
Because of the limited trading
market for our common stock and because of the possible price volatility, you
may not be able to sell your shares of common stock when you desire to do so.
The inability to sell your shares in a rapidly declining market may
substantially increase your risk of loss because of such illiquidity and
because the price for our Securities may suffer greater declines because of our
price volatility.
The price of our common stock
that will prevail in the market after this offering may be higher or lower than
the price you may pay. Certain factors, some of which are beyond our control,
that may cause our share price to fluctuate significantly include, but are not
limited to the following:
- Variations in our quarterly
operating results;
- Loss of a key relationship or
failure to complete significant transactions;
- Additions or departures of key
personnel; and
- Fluctuations in stock market
price and volume.
Additionally, in recent years the
stock market in general, and the over-the-counter markets in particular, have
experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. In some cases, these
fluctuations are unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of
the underlying company. These market and industry factors may materially and
adversely affect our stock price, regardless of our operating performance. In
the past, class action litigation often has been brought against companies
following periods of volatility in the market price of those companies common
stock. If we become involved in this type of litigation in the future, it could
result in substantial costs and diversion of management attention and
resources, which could have a further negative effect on your investment in our
stock.
Any new
potential investors will suffer a disproportionate risk and there will be
immediate dilution of existing investor's investments.
Our present
shareholders have acquired their securities at a cost significantly less than
that which the investors purchasing pursuant to shares will pay for their stock
holdings or at which future purchasers in the market may pay. Therefore, any
new potential investors will bear most of the risk of loss.
Our
business is highly speculative and the investment is therefore risky.
Due to
the speculative nature of our business, it is probable that the investment in
shares offered hereby will result in a total loss to the investor. Investors
should be able to financially bear the loss of their entire investment.
Investment should, therefore, be limited to that portion of discretionary funds
not needed for normal living purposes or for reserves for disability and
retirement.

OIL AND GAS PROPERTIES.
Our oil and
natural gas properties are located in the states of Wyoming, Nebraska and Utah.
Title to Properties
As is customary in the oil and natural gas industry, we generally
conduct a preliminary title examination prior to the acquisition of properties
or leasehold interests. Prior to commencement of operations on such acreage, a
thorough title examination will usually be conducted and any significant
defects will be remedied before proceeding with operations. We believe the
title to our leasehold properties is good, defensible and customary with
practices in the oil and natural gas industry, subject to such exceptions that
we believe do not materially detract from the use of such properties. With
respect to our properties of which we are not the record owner, we rely instead
on contracts with the owner or operator of the property or assignment of
leases, pursuant to which, among other things, we generally have the right to
have our interest placed on record.
Our properties
are generally subject to royalty, overriding royalty and other interests
customary in the industry, liens incident to agreements, current taxes and
other burdens, minor encumbrances, easements and restrictions. We do not
believe any of these burdens will materially interfere with our use of these
properties.
Summary of Oil and Natural Gas
Reserves
The following
disclosures for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 includes only those
reserves attributable to those located in Fremont, Hot Springs and Park
Counties in Wyoming, which are part of the Western Interior acquisition.
Any reserves
attributable to our Nebraska, Burke Ranch, Wyoming, Cole Creek, Wyoming and certain
undeveloped properties at Western Interior and the Mondo, Utah project were not
considered in the reserve report, as all properties are undeveloped at this
time.

Reserves
The following table sets forth
our estimated net proved reserves as of March 31, 2015, based on the Reserve
Report dated June 3, 2015. All such reserves are attributable
to those located in Fremont, Hot Springs and Park Counties in Wyoming, which
are part of the Western Interior acquisition, these include the Baird,
Meeteetse, Rawhide and Kirby Draw Southfield projects.

Proved
developed oil reserves are reserves that can be recovered through existing
wells with existing equipment and operating methods. Proved undeveloped oil
reserves are reserves on undrilled acreage are limited to those directly
offsetting development spacing and in areas that are reasonably certainty of
economic productivity at greater distances.
Probable oil
reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered
than proved reserves but which, together with proved reserves are likely as not
to be recovered.
Possible oil
reserves are those additional reserves that are less certain to be recovered
that probable reserves.
Estimates of
proved developed and undeveloped reserves are inherently imprecise and are
continually subject to revision based on production history, results of
additional exploration and development, price and production cost changes and
other factors. See "- Qualifications of Technical Persons and Internal Controls
Over Reserves Estimation Process."
Qualifications of Technical
Persons and Internal Controls Over Reserves Estimation Process
The reserves estimates shown herein have been independently
evaluated by Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc. (NSAI), a worldwide
leader of petroleum property analysis for industry and financial organizations
and government agencies. NSAI was founded in 1961 and performs consulting
petroleum engineering services under Texas Board of Professional Engineers
Registration No. F-2699. Within NSAI, the technical persons primarily
responsible for preparing the estimates set forth in the NSAI reserves report
incorporated herein are Mr. Steven M. Jenkins and Mr. Shane M. Howell.
Mr. Jenkins, a Licensed Professional Engineer in the State of Texas (No.
118072), has been practicing consulting petroleum engineering at NSAI since
2013 and has over 16 years of prior industry experience. He
graduated from Montana Tech of the University of Montana in 1996 with a
Bachelor of Science Degree in Geophysical Engineering and from The Pennsylvania
State University in 2003 with a Master of Science Degree in Community and
Economic Development. Mr. Howell, a Licensed Professional Geoscientist in
the State of Texas, Geology (No. 11276), has been practicing consulting
petroleum geoscience at NSAI since 2005 and has over 7 years of prior
industry experience. He graduated from San Diego State University in 1997
with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Geological Sciences and in 1998 with a
Master of Science Degree in Geological Sciences. Both technical
principals meet
-23-
or exceed the education, training, and experience requirements
set forth in the Standards Pertaining to the Estimating and Auditing of Oil and
Gas Reserves Information promulgated by the Society of Petroleum Engineers;
both are proficient in judiciously applying industry standard practices to
engineering and geoscience evaluations as well as applying SEC and other
industry reserves definitions and guidelines.
Mr. Martin Gottlob, the Company's
Vice President of Geology, is primarily responsible for the determination of
and the presentation of the reserves presented by the Company.
The technical
persons responsible for preparing the reserves estimates presented herein meet
the requirements regarding qualifications, independence, objectivity and
confidentiality set forth in the Standards Pertaining to the Estimating and
Auditing of Oil and Natural Gas Reserves Information promulgated by the Society
of Petroleum Engineers.
Our internal staff of geoscience
professionals who work closely with our independent petroleum engineer to
ensure the integrity, accuracy and timeliness of data furnished to them in
their reserves estimation process. We review with them our properties and
discuss methods and assumptions used in their preparation of our fiscal
year-end reserves estimates. While we have no formal committee specifically
designated to review reserves reporting and the reserves estimation process, a
copy of each of the NSAI reserve report is reviewed with representatives of NSAI
and our internal technical staff before we disseminate any of the information.
Additionally, our senior management reviews and approves the final reserve
report and any significant internally estimated changes to our proved reserves
on an annual basis.
Estimates of oil and natural gas
reserves are projections based on a process involving an independent third
party engineering firm's collection of all required geologic, geophysical,
engineering and economic data, and such firm's complete external preparation of
all required estimates and are forward-looking in nature. These reports rely
upon various assumptions, including assumptions required by the SEC, such as
constant oil and natural gas prices, operating expenses and future capital
costs. The process also requires assumptions relating to availability of funds
and timing of capital expenditures for development of our proved undeveloped
reserves. These reports should not be construed as the current market value of
our reserves. The process of estimating oil and natural gas reserves is also
dependent on geological, engineering and economic data for each reservoir.
Because of the uncertainties inherent in the interpretation of this data, we
cannot be certain that the reserves will ultimately be realized. Our actual
results could differ materially. See "Note 13 - Supplemental Information Relating
to Oil and Natural Gas Producing Activities (Unaudited)" to our audited
consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our oil
and natural gas reserves.
Under SEC rules, proved reserves
are those quantities of oil and natural gas, which, by analysis of geoscience
and engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be
economically producible from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and
under existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government
regulations. The term "reasonable certainty" implies a high degree of
confidence that the quantities of oil and/or natural gas actually recovered
will equal or exceed the estimate. To achieve reasonable certainty, NSAI employs
technologies consistent with the standards established by the Society of
Petroleum Engineers. The technologies and economic data used in the estimation
of our proved reserves include, but are not limited to, well logs, geologic
maps and available downhole and production data, seismic data and well test
data.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
Not applicable.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited
financial statements and notes thereto included herein. In connection with, and
because we desire to take advantage of, the "safe harbor" provisions of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we caution readers regarding
certain forward looking statements in the following discussion and elsewhere in
this report and in any other statement made by, or on our behalf, whether or not
in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical information
and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other
developments. Forward looking statements are
-28-
necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are
inherently subject to significant business, economic and
competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are
beyond our control and many of which, with respect to future
business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and
contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by, or on
our behalf. We disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking
statements.
The independent registered public accounting firm's report on the Company's financial statements as of March 31, 2015, and for each of the years in the two-year period then ended, includes a "going concern" explanatory paragraph, that describes substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS
We
are an energy company, focused on the acquisition, exploration, development and
production of oil and natural gas. We have acquired oil and natural gas properties
located in the western United States, mainly in the Rocky Mountain region. Our
goal is to drill and produce oil and gas cost effectively, by concentrating our
efforts in proven oil rich areas where we have in-house geologic and operating
experience.
Prior to August 2014, we had
minimal operations that were focused mainly on administrative activities, the
identification of potential oil and gas prospects, and one prospect
participation in Colorado that was rescinded in June 2014.
Our approach is to acquire Proven Developed
Producing properties that are also de-risk. The ideal candidate will also
include Proven Undeveloped well sites, which should supply upside development
potential, ("running room.") Specifically, properties that have the advantage
of having established producing oil and/or natural gas wells that have
drillable offset locations and have wells that may be shut-in but are
candidates for re-working or re-completion, are high priority acquisition
targets.
Our acquisition strategy also takes older wells
that are shut in or have lower production results and applies new and existing
technologies to work-over and/or recomplete so as to increase production and
ultimate recovery. Technologies to be deployed include 3-D seismic imaging to
target undeveloped areas of the reservoir that contain remaining primary
reserves; horizontal drilling to increase recoveries; as well as secondary and
tertiary recovery methods to increase ultimate produced reserves.
On December 22, 2014, we entered
into the Exchange Agreements with the Terex shareholders for 100% of the shares
of Terex. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreements, we agreed to issue 7,385,700
shares of our restricted common stock for 100% of the issued and outstanding
common stock of Terex. The shares are to be exchanged on a one for one basis. As
a result, Terex became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, as previously
discussed in Item 1 of this Filing. As a result of our acquisition of Terex,
we acquired oil and gas properties and projects in Wyoming, Nebraska and Utah.
In line with that strategy on March 28, 2015 we
closed on the acquisition of Western Interior, as our wholly-owned subsidiary.
Western Interior has producing and developmental oil and gas properties in
southwest central Wyoming.
During the remainder of 2015, management intends to
focus efforts on not only the exploration of existing properties, but also
additional acquisitions to grow production.
Financing Efforts
On April 26, 2015, we entered into a Subscription Agreement for the purchase of shares of its restricted common stock pursuant to Regulation S. As of June 30, 2015, we have received $800,000 in funds and are obligated to issue 372,094 shares of its restricted common stock. The Company intends to use such funds to support ongoing operations.
-29-
We will require substantial additional capital to
support our existing and proposed future operations. We have only during
the second calendar quarter of 2015, started realizing reoccurring and
consistent revenue, although insufficient to fully support current operations.
We have no committed source for any additional funds as of the date hereof. No
representation is made that any funds will be available when needed. In the
event funds cannot be raised when needed, we may not be able to carry out our
business plan, may never achieve sales or royalty income, and could fail in
business as a result of these uncertainties.
Decisions regarding future prospect acquisitions or
other participation activities will be made on a case-by-case basis. We
may, in any particular case, decide to participate or decline participation. If
participating, we may pay our proportionate share of costs to maintain our
proportionate interest through cash flow or debt or equity financing. If participation
is declined, we may elect to farmout, non-consent, sell or otherwise negotiate
a method of cost sharing in order to maintain some continuing interest in the
prospect.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the Year Ended March 31,
2015 Compared to the Year Ended March 31, 2014
During the years ended March 31,
2015 and 2014, the Company did not recognize any revenues from its oil and gas
operations. The Company as a result of the Western Interior acquisition, has
begun to recognize revenues during the first quarter of the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2016 and intends to grow revenue through its acquisition strategy.
During the year ended March 31,
2015, the Company recognized total operating expenses of $11,043,602 compared
to $13,431 during the year ended March 31, 2014. The increase of $11,030,171
was primarily a result of increased operational activity resulting from our
acquisition of Terex in December 2014. The primary component of operating
expenses was the $7,814,365 asset impairment which included the impairment
of goodwill in the amount of $7,780,336 as part
of the Western Interior acquisition. This is a one time charge. In addition,
we incurred exploration expense of $1,444,742 that included the costs
in the amount of $1,360,119 for the drilling of two dry wells in Utah. During the year ended March
31, 2015, we incurred general and administrative expenses of $1,744,263,
consisting of $969,707 in equity based compensation.
During the years ended March 31,
2015 and 2014, we recognized net losses of $11,043,541 and $13,431,
respectively. The increase of $11,030,110 was a result of the increases in
operational expenses discussed above.
LIQUIDITY
At March 31, 2015, we had total
current assets of $769,140, consisting of $636,542 in cash and cash
equivalents, $35,660 in accounts receivable, a $50,000 loan to an affiliate and
$46,938 in prepaid expenses. At March 31, 2015, we had total current
liabilities of $2,759,243, consisting of $660,901 in accounts payable and
accrued liabilities, $163,389 in current asset retirement obligations and
$1,934,953 in notes payables. At March 31, 2015, we had a working capital
deficit of $1,990,103.
During the year ended March 31,
2015, we used $884,951 in operations. During the year ended March 31, 2015,
we incurred a
net loss of $11,043,541 that was reconciled for non-cash items consisting of $10,143
in depreciation and amortization, a $1,360,119 dry hole expenses and a
$7,814,365 impairment charge and equity based compensation of $969,707.
During the year ended March 31,
2015, we used $9,590 in operations. During the year ended March 31, 2014, we
recognized a net loss of $13,431, which was reconciled for non-cash items
consisting of $3,710 in equity
based compensation.
During the year ended March 31,
2015, we used $851,825 in investing activities compared to nil during the year
ended March 31, 2014. During the year ended March 31, 2015, we expended
$1,817,527 in additions to oil and gas properties and $42,510 in additions to
non-oil and gas properties. As part of the acquisitions of Terex and Western
Interior, we received cash of $966,027 and $103,771, respectively. We used
$11,586 to make additions to other assets.
-30-
During the year ended March 31,
2015, we received $2,207,603 from our financing activities compared to $175,305
during the year ended March 31, 2014.
At March 31, 2015, in connection
with the Western Interior acquisition we assumed five promissory notes in the
amount of $1,770,047 as part of agreements relative to the repurchase of 33,085
shares of Western Interior common stock owned by dissident shareholders and
these notes are collateralized by certain oil and properties of Western Interior.
The Company has a line-of-credit
with a bank in the amount of $350,000 collateralized by certain oil and gas
properties of the Company. The line-of-credit was to mature in May 2015, but
has been extended. Annual interest is at prime plus 2.50% with a floor of 7%).
The Company owes $144,275 at March 31, 2015.
Installment Notes
The Company in November 2014, borrowed
$17,228 from unrelated parties to finance their insurance policies. The
unsecured notes are repaid at $2,797 per month including interest at the rate
of 5.81% per annum. The Company owes $20,630 at March 31, 2015.
During the year ended March 31, 2015, we sold 20,000 shares
of its restricted common stock as part of a private placement for $50,000 in
cash or $2.50 per share.
During the year ended March 31,
2015, prior to our acquisition of Terex, shareholders of Terex as part of a
private placement contributed cash in the amount of $2,195,700 in exchange for
2,195,700 shares of Terex common stock valued at $1.00 per share. In addition,
shareholders of Terex contributed services that were expensed at $950,000 in
exchange for 950,000 shares of Terex.
Short Term.
On a short-term basis, we have not
generated revenues sufficient to cover operations. Based on prior history, we
will continue to have insufficient revenue to satisfy current and recurring
liabilities as the Company continues exploration activities.
Capital Resources
The Company has only common stock
as its capital resource.
We have no material commitments
for capital expenditures within the next year, however if operations are
commenced, substantial capital will be needed to pay for participation,
investigation, exploration, acquisition and working capital.
Need for Additional Financing
We do not have capital sufficient
to meet its cash needs. The Company will have to seek loans or equity
placements to cover such cash needs. Once exploration commences, its needs for
additional financing is likely to increase substantially.
No commitments to provide
additional funds have been made by the Company's management or other
stockholders. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that any additional funds
will be available to us to allow us to cover the Company's expenses as they may
be incurred.
The Company will need substantial additional
capital to support its proposed future energy operations. We have insufficient
revenues to cover our corporate costs. The Company has no committed
source for any funds as of the date hereof. No representation is made that any
funds will be available when needed. In the event funds cannot be raised when
needed, we may not be able to carry out our business plan, may never achieve sufficient
sales or royalty income, and could fail in business as a result of these
uncertainties.
-31-
Decisions regarding future participation in
exploration wells or geophysical studies or other activities will be made on a
case-by-case basis. The Company may, in any particular case, decide to
participate or decline participation. If participating, we may pay the proportionate
share of costs to maintain the Company's proportionate interest through cash
flow or debt or equity financing. If participation is declined, the Company
may elect to farmout, non-consent, sell or otherwise negotiate a method of cost
sharing in order to maintain some continuing interest in the prospect.
Critical Accounting Policies
Oil and Gas Producing
Activities
The Company uses the successful
efforts method of accounting for oil and gas activities. Under this method,
the costs of productive exploratory wells, all development wells, related asset
retirement obligation assets, and productive leases are capitalized and
amortized, principally by field, on a units-of-production basis over the life
of the remaining proved reserves. Exploration costs, including personnel
costs, geological and geophysical expenses, and delay rentals for oil and gas
leases are charged to expense as incurred. Exploratory drilling costs are
initially capitalized, but charged to expense if and when the well is
determined not to have found reserves in commercial quantities. The sale of a
partial interest in a proved property is accounted for as a cost recovery, and
no gain or loss is recognized as long as this treatment does not significantly
affect the units-of-production amortization rate. A gain or loss is recognized
for all other sales of producing properties. There were capitalized costs of
$10,003,625 and $0 at March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Unproved oil and gas properties
are assessed annually to determine whether they have been impaired by the
drilling of dry holes on or near the related acreage or other circumstances,
which may indicate a decline in value. When impairment occurs, a loss is
recognized. When leases for unproved properties expire, the costs thereof, net
of any related allowance for impairment, is removed from the accounts and
charged to expense. During the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, there was
no impairment to unproved properties. The sale of a partial interest in an
unproved property is accounted for as a recovery of cost when substantial
uncertainty exists as to the ultimate recovery of the cost applicable to the
interest retained. A gain on the sale is recognized to the extent that the sales
price exceeds the carrying amount of the unproved property. A gain or loss is
recognized for all other sales of unproved properties. There were capitalized
costs of $8,187,991 and $19,564 at March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Costs associated with development
wells that are unevaluated or are waiting on access to transportation or
processing facilities are reclassified into developmental wells-in-progress
("WIP"). These costs are not put into a depletable field basis until
the wells are fully evaluated or access is gained to transportation and
processing facilities. Costs associated with WIP are included in the cash
flows from investing as part of investment in oil and gas properties. At March
31, 2015 and 2014, no capitalized developmental costs were included in WIP.
Depreciation, depletion and
amortization of proved oil and gas properties is calculated using the
units-of-production method based on proved reserves and estimated salvage
values. For the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded no
depreciation, depletion and amortization expense on oil and gas properties.
The Company
reviews its proved oil and natural gas properties for impairment whenever
events and circumstances indicate that a decline in the recoverability of its carrying
value may have occurred. It estimates the undiscounted future net cash flows of
its oil and natural gas properties and compares such undiscounted future cash
flows to the carrying amount of the oil and natural gas properties to determine
if the carrying amount is recoverable. If the carrying amount exceeds the
estimated undiscounted future cash flows, the Company will adjust the carrying
amount of the oil and natural gas properties to fair value. There was no
impairment to proved properties for the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
-32-
Impairment of Long-Lived
AssetsIn accordance with authoritative
guidance on accounting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets, as
set forth in Topic 360 of the ASC, the Company assesses the recoverability of
the carrying value of its non-oil and gas long-lived assets when events occur
that indicate an impairment in value may exist. An impairment loss is indicated
if the sum of the expected undiscounted future net cash flows is less than the
carrying amount of the assets. If this occurs, an impairment loss is recognized
for the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated
fair value of the assets.
Revenue Recognition
The Company had no revenue from
operations during the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Business Combination
The Company accounts for
acquisitions in accordance with guidance found in ASC 805, Business
Combinations. The guidance requires consideration given, including contingent
consideration, assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be valued at their
fair values at the date of acquisition. The guidance further provides that
acquisition costs will generally be expenses as incurred and changes in
deferred tax asset valuations and income tax uncertainties after the
acquisition date generally will affect income tax expense.
ASC 805 requires that any excess
of purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired, including
identifiable intangibles and liabilities assumed be recognized as goodwill and
any excess of fair value of acquired net assets, including identifiable
intangible assets over the acquisition consideration results in a gain from
bargain purchase. Prior to recording a gain, the acquiring entity must reassess
whether ass acquired assets and assumed liabilities have been identified and
recognized and perform re-measurements to verify that the consideration paid,
assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been properly valued.
Goodwill
In accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, goodwill cannot be amortized, however, it must
be tested annually for impairment. This impairment test is calculated at the
reporting unit level. The goodwill impairment test has two steps. The first
identifies potential impairments by comparing the fair value of a reporting
unit with its book value, including goodwill. If the fair value of the
reporting unit exceeds the carrying amount, goodwill is not impaired and the
second step is not necessary. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value,
the second step calculates the possible impairment loss by comparing the
implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount. If the implied
goodwill is less than the carrying amount, a write-down is recorded.
Management tests goodwill each year for impairment, or when facts or
circumstances indicate impairment has occurred. See Note 3 - Fair Value
Measurement.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND
QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our operations do not employ
financial instruments or derivatives which are market sensitive. Short term
funds are held in non-interest bearing accounts and funds held for longer
periods are placed in interest bearing accounts. Large amounts of funds, if
available, will be distributed among multiple financial institutions to reduce
risk of loss. The Company's cash holdings do not generate interest income.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
None.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company maintains a system of
disclosure controls and procedures that are designed for the purposes of
ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the Company's SEC reports
is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods
specified in the SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated
and communicated to the Company's management as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management, consisting of the
Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (the same
individual) after evaluating the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure
controls and procedures as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-14(c) as of March
31, 2015 (the "Evaluation Date") concluded that as of the Evaluation
Date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to
ensure that material information relating to the Company would be made known to
them by individuals within those entities, particularly during the period in
which this annual report was being prepared and that information required to be
disclosed in the Company's SEC reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and
reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, as
discussed further below.
T-Rex's management is responsible
for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial
reporting for the company in accordance with as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and
15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company's internal control over
financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements
for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes
those policies and procedures that:
(1) pertain to
the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly
reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company's assets;
(2) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and that the Company's receipts and expenditures are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of T-Rex's management and
directors; and
(3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a
material effect on T-Rex's financial statements.
We have identified certain
material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting relating to a
shortage of accounting and reporting personnel due to limited financial
resources and the size of our Company, as detailed below:
(1)
The Company currently
does not have, but is in the process of developing formally documented
accounting policies and procedures, which includes establishing a well-defined
process for financial reporting.
(2)
Due to the limited
size of our accounting department, we currently lack the resources to handle
complex accounting transaction. We believe this deficiency could lead to
errors in the presentation and disclosure of financial information in our
annual, quarterly, and other filings.
-34-
(3)
As is the case with
many companies of similar size, we currently a lack of segregation of duties in
the accounting department. Until our operations expand and additional cash
flow is generated from operations, a complete segregation of duties within our
accounting function will not be possible.
Considering the nature and extent
of our current operations and any risks or errors in financial reporting under
current operations and the fact that we have been a small business with limited
employees, such items caused a weakness in internal controls involving the
areas disclosed above.
We have concluded that our
internal controls over financial reporting were ineffective as of March 31,
2015, due to the existence of the material weaknesses noted above that we have
yet to fully remediate.
This annual report does not
include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting
firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report
was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting
firm pursuant to permanent rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that
permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report. There
was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred
during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015, that has materially affected, or
is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting.

T-REX OIL, INC.
CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED MARCH 31, 2015 AND 2014
-50-
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC
ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
the Board of Directors and Stockholders of T-Rex Oil, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of T-Rex
Oil, Inc. ("the Company") as of March 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related
statement of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flow for the
years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014. 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 audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with 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. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to
above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of T-Rex
Oil, Inc., as of March 31, 2015 and 2014 and the results of its operations and
its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States of America.
The Company is not required to have, nor were we
engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting. Our audit 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 Company's internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As
discussed in Note 3 to the financial
statements, the Company's significant operating losses raise substantial doubt
about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial
statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of
this uncertainty.

T-REX OIL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Formerly Rancher
Energy Corp)
Notes To The
Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2015 And
2014
Note
1 - Organization and History
T-Rex Oil, Inc. (the
"Company") was incorporated in Colorado on September 2, 2014. Rancher Energy
Corp was incorporated in Nevada on February 2, 2004. Effective October 20,
2014, T-Rex Oil, Inc. and Rancher Energy Corp were merged under the laws of the
State of Colorado and T-Rex Oil, Inc. became the surviving entity. Effective
October 29, 2014, the Company authorized 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock
in addition to its common stock and completed a reverse split of its common
stock, issued and outstanding, on a one (1) new share for three hundred fifty
(350) old shares basis.
The Company is currently
engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and if warranted, development of oil
and gas prospects in the Rocky Mountain and Mid Continent regions. Prior to
August 2014, the Company had minimal operations that were focused mainly on
administrative activities, the identification of potential oil and gas
prospects and one prospect participation in Colorado that was rescinded in June
2014.
On December 22, 2014, the
Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Terex
Energy Corporation ("Terex") pursuant to Exchange Agreements with the
shareholders of Terex. Terex was incorporated in the State of Colorado in
February 2014 and is headquartered in Broomfield, Colorado. Pursuant to the
Exchange Agreements, the Company issued 7,385,700 shares of its restricted
common stock for 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Terex. The
shares were exchanged on a one for one basis. As a result, Terex has become a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. T-Rex Oil, Inc. is the legal acquirer
and Terex is the legal acquiree. However under accounting rules, since the
Company is a public company, which had nominal activity, the acquisition is
treated as a recapitalization of Terex. Therefore, Terex is the accounting
acquirer in the transaction since Terex's shareholders and management gained
control of T-Rex Oil, Inc. and T-Rex Oil, Inc. is the accounting acquiree. On
August 19, 2014, prior to entering into the Exchange Agreements, Terex had
purchased 371,004 shares from the Company. After such purchase, Terex owned
approximately 52% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company. As
part of the December 22, 2014 transaction, Terex surrendered its ownership of
the 371,004 shares of T-Rex Oil, Inc. common stock and as a result such shares
have been canceled.
On
February 24, 2015, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with
Western Interior Oil & Gas Corporation, a Wyoming private oil and natural
gas company ("WIOG") and the shareholders of WIOG. Under the Share Exchange
Agreement the Company exchanged 7,465,168 shares of its restricted common stock
for 170,878 shares of the issued and outstanding common stock of WIOG thereby
owning 83% of WIOG. The acquisition was closed on March 27, 2014 and became
effective March 31, 2015. In addition, the Company agreed to appoint two
nominees of WIOG to the Company's Board of Directors at a future date. On March
31, 2015, the Company entered into an amendment to the Share Exchange Agreement
whereby the Company assumed certain repurchase agreements between WIOG and its
dissident shareholders and as a result acquired the remaining 17% of WIOG. As
part of these agreements, the Company assumed certain promissory notes issued
to the dissenting shareholders in the total amount of $1,770,047 that are
secured by WIOG assets. As a result, WIOG has become a wholly-owned subsidiary
of the Company. See Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
- Principles of Consolidation.
As a result of these
acquisitions, the Company has interests in oil and gas properties that are
discussed hereafter and intends to strive to be a low cost and effective
producer of hydrocarbons and to develop the business model and corporate
strategy as discussed herein. The Company is focused on the acquisition,
exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas. Through
acquisition the Company has acquired oil and natural gas properties located in
the central and western United States, mainly the Rocky Mountain region.
Our goal is to drill and produce oil and gas cost effectively, by concentrating
our efforts in proven oil rich areas where we have in-house geologic and
operating experience. The industry is going through major changes due to
the drop in the global price of oil over the past 18 months. Due the size
and scope of expenditures of many exploration and production companies, it is no
longer feasible for them to operate and they are no longer

able to service the
debt that was incurred to fund these operations without raising additional
capital or pledging additional assets. This and other related events have
created opportunities to acquire quality production and leases at value pricing
and operate them at a profit within the current pricing environment.
The Company's strategy that
has grown in prominence and application with respect to petroleum is to use a
development program approach. The Company describes its development plan
approach as a set of techniques utilizing the injection of specific fluids such
as: water, steam, natural gas, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and various chemicals
and surfactants intended to increase the amount of oil that can ultimately be
extracted from any oil field. Many oil exploration and production companies are
using development program approaches to maximize the potential of old oil
fields.
The Company's business
operations are in the development and production of oil and gas including
unconventional natural gas, in the Rocky Mountain region of the continental
United States; specifically in the Rocky Mountain areas of Utah, Colorado,
Wyoming and Nebraska.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies
Principles
of Consolidation
The accompanying balance
sheet at March 31, 2014 and the statement of operations and the statement of
cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2014 include only the accounts of Terex
Energy Corporation. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet at March 31,
2015 include the accounts of Terex Energy Corporation, T-Rex Oil, Inc. and
Western Interior Oil and Gas Corporation and the consolidated statement of
operations and the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended
March 31, 2015 include the accounts of Terex Energy Corporation and the
accounts of T-Rex Oil, Inc. for the period December 23, 2014 through March 31,
2015. All intercompany balances have been eliminated during consolidation.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of
Consolidated Financial Statements
The preparation of consolidated financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual
results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the
fair value of assets and liabilities, oil and natural gas reserves, income
taxes and the valuation allowances related to deferred tax assets, asset
retirement obligations and contingencies.
Change in Accounting Principle
The Company disclosed in its unaudited
financial statements for the three and six months ended September 30 2014 as
filed in its Form 10Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November
19, 2014 that it changed its method of accounting from the successful efforts
to the full cost method of accounting for its oil and natural gas operations
and, as such pursuant to ASC Topic 250 and ASC Topic 932 further disclosed
there was no retroactive restatement of financial statements for the relative
periods as there were no oil and natural gas capitalized costs or operations
incurred to date by the Company.
However, as disclosed in the Company's filing of Form 8-K
with the SEC on April 1, 2015, the Company acquired 83% of the outstanding
common stock of Western Interiors Oil and Gas Corporation on March 28, 2015,
effective March 31, 2015, in a stock for stock Exchange Agreement. As such,
WIOG is an oil and gas company that follows the successful efforts method of accounting
for its oil and gas operations.
Therefore, management believes it is in the best interest
of the Company that, as a result of the acquisition of WIOG, the Company changes
the accounting for its oil and gas operations back to the successful efforts
from the full cost method of accounting. As a result of this change in
accounting principle, there was no change
-57-
T-REX OIL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Formerly Rancher
Energy Corp)
Notes To The
Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2015 And
2014
in the carrying amount
of its oil and gas properties on its balance sheet at March 31, 2014 or in its
statement of operations for the year ended March 31, 2014.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments
purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits and money market
funds carried at cost which approximates fair value. The Company maintains its
cash in institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
("FDIC"), although such deposits are in excess of the insurance coverage. At
March 31, 2015, the Company had $100,053 of cash deposits in excess of FDIC
insured limits.
Oil and Gas Producing Activities
The Company uses the successful efforts method of
accounting for oil and gas activities. Under this method, the costs of
productive exploratory wells, all development wells, related asset retirement
obligation assets, and productive leases are capitalized and amortized,
principally by field, on a units-of-production basis over the life of the
remaining proved reserves. Exploration costs, including personnel costs,
geological and geophysical expenses, and delay rentals for oil and gas leases
are charged to expense as incurred. Exploratory drilling costs are initially
capitalized, but charged to expense if and when the well is determined not to
have found reserves in commercial quantities. The sale of a partial interest
in a proved property is accounted for as a cost recovery, and no gain or loss
is recognized as long as this treatment does not significantly affect the
units-of-production amortization rate. A gain or loss is recognized for all
other sales of producing properties. There were capitalized costs of
$10,003,625 and $0 at March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Unproved oil and gas properties are assessed annually to
determine whether they have been impaired by the drilling of dry holes on or
near the related acreage or other circumstances, which may indicate a decline
in value. When impairment occurs, a loss is recognized. When leases for
unproved properties expire, the costs thereof, net of any related allowance for
impairment, is removed from the accounts and charged to expense. During the
years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, there was no impairment to unproved
properties. The sale of a partial interest in an unproved property is accounted
for as a recovery of cost when substantial uncertainty exists as to the
ultimate recovery of the cost applicable to the interest retained. A gain on
the sale is recognized to the extent that the sales price exceeds the carrying
amount of the unproved property. A gain or loss is recognized for all other
sales of unproved properties. There were capitalized costs of $8,087,991 and
$19,564 at March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Costs associated with development wells that are
unevaluated or are waiting on access to transportation or processing facilities
are reclassified into developmental wells-in-progress ("WIP"). These
costs are not put into a depletable field basis until the wells are fully
evaluated or access is gained to transportation and processing facilities.
Costs associated with WIP are included in the cash flows from investing as part
of investment in oil and gas properties. At March 31, 2015 and 2014, no
capitalized developmental costs were included in WIP.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization of proved oil and
gas properties is calculated using the units-of-production method based on
proved reserves and estimated salvage values. For the years ended March 31,
2015 and 2014, the Company recorded no depreciation, depletion and amortization
expense on oil and gas properties.
The
Company reviews its proved oil and natural gas properties for impairment
whenever events and circumstances indicate that a decline in the recoverability
of its carrying value may have occurred. It estimates the undiscounted future
net cash flows of its oil and natural gas properties and compares such
undiscounted future
-58-

(Formerly Rancher
Energy Corp)
Notes To The
Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2015 And
2014
cash
flows to the carrying amount of the oil and natural gas properties to determine
if the carrying amount is recoverable. If the carrying amount exceeds the
estimated undiscounted future cash flows, the Company will adjust the carrying
amount of the oil and natural gas properties to fair value. There was no
impairment to proved properties for the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014.
Other Property and Equipment
Other property and equipment, such as
computer hardware and software, are recorded at cost. Costs of renewals and
improvements that substantially extend the useful lives of the assets are
capitalized. Maintenance and repair costs are expensed when incurred. When
other property and equipment is sold or retired, the capitalized costs and
related accumulated depreciation are removed from their respective accounts.
Depreciation expense of other property and equipment for the years ended March
31, 2015 and 2014 was $10,143 and $0, respectively.
Asset
Retirement Obligations
The Company records estimated future asset retirement
obligations ("ARO") related to its oil and gas properties. The
Company records the estimated fair value of a liability for ARO in the period
in which it is incurred with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of
the related long-lived asset. The increased carrying value is depleted using
the units-of-production method, and the discounted liability is increased
through accretion over the remaining life of the respective oil and gas
properties.
The estimated liability is based on historical industry
experience in abandoning wells, including estimated economic lives, external
estimates as to the cost to abandon the wells in the future, and federal and
state regulatory requirements. The Company's liability is discounted using
management's best estimate of its credit-adjusted, risk-free rate. Revisions
to the liability could occur due to changes in estimated abandonment costs, changes
in well economic lives, or if federal or state regulators enact new
requirements regarding the abandonment of wells.
A reconciliation of the changes in the Company's liability
is as follows:

Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets
In accordance with
authoritative guidance on accounting for the impairment or disposal of
long-lived assets, as set forth in Topic 360 of the ASC, the Company assesses
the recoverability of the carrying value of its non-oil and gas long-lived
assets when events occur that indicate an impairment in value may exist. An
impairment loss is indicated if the sum of the expected undiscounted future net
cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the assets. If this occurs, an
impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of
the assets exceeds the estimated fair value of the assets.
Revenue
Recognition
The Company had no revenue from operations
during the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Notes To The
Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2015 And
2014
Other Comprehensive Loss
The Company has no material
components of other comprehensive loss and accordingly, net loss is equal to
comprehensive loss for the period.
Income Taxes
The Company uses the liability method of
accounting for income taxes under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the
accounting bases and the tax bases of the Company's assets and liabilities. The
deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed using enacted tax rates in effect
for the year in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.
The Company's deferred income taxes include certain future
tax benefits. The Company records a valuation allowance against any portion of
those deferred income tax assets when it believes, based on the weight of
available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the
deferred income tax asset will not be realized.
The Company has adopted ASC
guidance regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. This guidance
clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum
recognition threshold an income tax position is required to meet before being
recognized in the consolidated financial statements and applies to all income
tax positions. Each income tax position is assessed using a two-step process. A
determination is first made as to whether it is more likely than not that the
income tax position will be sustained, based upon technical merits, upon
examination by the taxing authorities. If the income tax position is expected
to meet the more likely than not criteria, the benefit recorded in the
consolidated financial statements equals the largest amount that is greater
than 50% likely to be realized upon its ultimate settlement. At March 31, 2015,
there were no uncertain tax positions that required accrual.
Business Combination
The Company accounts for acquisitions in
accordance with guidance found in ASC 805, Business Combinations. The guidance
requires consideration given, including contingent consideration, assets
acquired and liabilities assumed to be valued at their fair values at the date
of acquisition. The guidance further provides that acquisition costs will
generally be expenses as incurred and changes in deferred tax asset valuations
and income tax uncertainties after the acquisition date generally will affect
income tax expense.
ASC 805 requires that any excess of purchase
price over the fair value of assets acquired, including identifiable
intangibles and liabilities assumed be recognized as goodwill and any excess of
fair value of acquired net assets, including identifiable intangible assets
over the acquisition consideration results in a gain from bargain purchase.
Prior to recording a gain, the acquiring entity must reassess whether ass
acquired assets and assumed liabilities have been identified and recognized and
perform re-measurements to verify that the consideration paid, assets acquired
and liabilities assumed have been properly valued.
Goodwill
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, goodwill
cannot be amortized, however, it must be tested annually for impairment.
This impairment test is calculated at the reporting unit level. The
goodwill impairment test has two steps. The first identifies potential
impairments by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its book value,
including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds the
carrying amount, goodwill is not impaired and the second step is not necessary.
If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, the second step calculates the
possible impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of
-60-
T-REX OIL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Formerly Rancher
Energy Corp)
Notes To The
Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2015 And
2014
goodwill with the carrying amount. If the implied goodwill is
less than the carrying amount, a write-down is recorded. Management tests
goodwill each year for impairment, or when facts or circumstances indicate
impairment has occurred. See Note 3 - Fair Value Measurement.
Net Loss per Share
Basic net loss per common share of stock is
calculated by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period.
Diluted net loss per common share is
calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding, including the effect of other dilutive securities. The Company's
potentially dilutive securities consist of in-the-money outstanding options and
warrants to purchase the Company's common stock. Diluted net loss per common
share does not give effect to dilutive securities as their effect would be
anti-dilutive.
The treasury stock method is used to measure
the dilutive impact of stock options and warrants. The following table details
the weighted-average dilutive and anti-dilutive securities related to stock
options and warrants for the periods presented:

Equity Based Payments
The Company recognizes compensation cost for equity based awards based
on estimated fair value of the award and records capitalized cost or
compensation expense over the requisite service period. See Note 8 - Equity
Based Payments.
Major Customers
The Company has no operations during the
years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 and as a result there are no customers or
billings.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As part of its ongoing business, the Company
has not participated in transactions that generate relationships with
unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often
referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities (SPEs), which
would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet
arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. From its
incorporation on February 11, 2014 through March 31, 201, the Company
has not been involved in any unconsolidated SPE transactions.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2014, the FASB issued
ASU No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic915) - Elimination of
Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable
Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation. This standard
update is to improve financial reporting by reducing the cost and complexity
associated with the incremental reporting requirements for development stage
entities, and as a result removes all incremental financial reporting
requirements. This standard update also eliminates an exception provided to
development stage entities in Topic 810, Consolidation, for determining whether
an entity is a variable interest entity on the basis of the amount of the
investment equity that is at risk. ASU 2014-10 is effective for annual
-61-
T-REX OIL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Formerly Rancher

Notes To The
Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2015 And
2014
reporting periods beginning
after December 15, 2016, and interim reporting periods beginning after December
15, 2017. Entities are allowed to apply the guidance early for any annual
reporting period or interim period for which the entity's financial statements
have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company adopted
these standards and they did not have a material impact on the Company's
consolidated financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued Update No.
2014-15 - Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern that requires management to evaluate whether there are
conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity's ability to
continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the entity's
financial statements are issued, or within one year after the date that the
entity's financial statements are available to be issued, and to provide
disclosures when certain criteria are met. This guidance is effective for the
annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and
interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this
guidance and assessing its impact, but does not currently believe it will have
a material effect on the Company's financial statements or disclosures.
There were other accounting
standards and interpretations issued during the year ended March 31, 2015, none
of which are expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial
position, operations or cash flows.
Subsequent Events
The Company evaluates events and
transactions after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements
are issued.
Note 3 - Going Concern and Managements' Plan
The
Company's consolidated financial statements for the years ended March 31, 2015
and 2014 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the
realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the
normal course of business. The Company reported a net loss of $11,043,541 and
$13,431 for the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and an
accumulated deficit of $11,056,792 as of March 31, 2015. At March 31, 2015,
the Company had a working capital deficit of $(1,990,103).
The future success of the Company is dependent on its
ability to attract additional capital and ultimately, upon its ability to
develop future profitable operations. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be successful in obtaining such financing, or that it will attain
positive cash flow from operations. Management believes that actions presently
being taken to revise the Company's operating and financial requirements
provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.
Note 4 - Fair Value Measurements
The Company applies the authoritative
guidance applicable to all financial assets and liabilities required to be
measured and reported on a fair value basis, as well as to non-financial assets
and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, including
impairments of proved oil and gas properties and other long-lived assets and
AROs initially measured at fair value. The fair value of an asset or liability
is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and
minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Observable
inputs are inputs that market participants would use in valuing the asset or
liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the
Company. Unobservable input are inputs that reflect the Company's assumptions
of what market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability based
on the information available in the circumstances.
-62-
T-REX OIL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Formerly Rancher
Energy Corp)
Notes To The
Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2015 And
2014
Financial and non-financial assets and
liabilities are classified within the valuation hierarchy based upon the lowest
level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company's
policy is to recognize transfers in and out of the fair value hierarchy as of
the end of the reporting period in which the event or change in circumstances
caused the transfer. The Company has consistently applied the valuation
techniques discussed below in all periods presented. The hierarchy is organized
into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities; or
Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for
similar assets and liabilities and inputs, quoted prices for identical or
similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active and model-derived
valuations whose inputs or significant value drivers are observable; or
Level 3: Unobservable pricing inputs in
which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to
develop its own assumptions.
The following table presents the Company's
non-financial assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a
non-recurring basis during the year ended March 31, 2015 by level within the
fair value hierarchy:

Effective March 31, 2015, the Company
acquired Western Interior Oil & Gas Corporation and as a result realized goodwill in
the amount of $7,780,336. Thus, due to the significance of this event, goodwill
was tested under ASC 360 as to its recoverability. Therefore, goodwill is
recorded at fair value if impairment is required under the accounting guidance.
The Company uses Level 2 inputs and the income valuation techniques of
undiscounted oil and gas future net cash flows to measure the fair value of
goodwill and thus the model forecast using standard pricing as defined by the
Securities and Exchange Commission by the independent engineers of Netherland, Sewell &
Associates, Inc. As such, the Company's goodwill was fully impaired during the
year ended March 31, 2015 in the amount of $7,780,336 and reported in the
consolidated statement of operations.
Fair value in the initial recognition of
other equipment is determined based on the quoted fair value of the vehicle
using inputs from valuation techniques used by industry participants.
Accordingly, the fair value is based on observable pricing inputs and is
considered a Level 2 value measurement. Therefore, the Company's other
equipment was written down to its fair value of $22,632 and an impairment
during the year ended March 31, 2015 in the amount of $27,368 was reported in
the consolidated statement of operations.
Note 5 - Significant Acquisition
Effective March 31, 2015, the Company
acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding stock of Western Interior Oil and
Gas Corporation. WIOG is a Wyoming private oil and natural gas company. As a
result of the acquisition, the Company has expanded its oil and natural gas reserves.
The acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method in accordance
with ASC 805.

Notes To The
Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2015 And
2014
For Income tax Return Purposes Only
On August 19, 2014, Terex Energy Corporation
acquired 52% of the outstanding common stock of T-Rex Oil Inc. and thus T-Rex
had a change of control event under IRC section 382, which will limit T-Rex's
ability to utilize its deferred tax assets, including net operating loss
carryforwards, to offset future taxable income. T-Rex has net operating loss
carryforwards of approximately $42,000,000 which will begin to expire in 2024.
Note 9 - Equity Based Payments
The Company accounts for
equity based payment accruals under authoritative guidance as set forth in the
Topics of the ASC. The guidance requires all equity based payments to employees
and non-employees, including grants of employee and non-employee stock options
and warrants, to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements based
at their fair values.
The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is
used to estimate the option and warrant fair values. The option-pricing model
requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are the stock
price at the valuation date that ranged from $0.01 to $3.50 per share as well
as the following assumptions:
Volatility 88.553%
- 123.600%
Expected
Option/Warrant Term 3 years
Risk-free
interest rate .12% - .25%
Expected dividend
yield 0.00%
The expected term of the options and
warrants granted were estimated to be the contractual term. The expected
volatility was based on an average of the volatility disclosed based upon
comparable companies who had similar expected option and warrant terms. The
risk-free rate was based on the one-year U.S. Treasury bond rate.
2014 Stock Incentive Plan
Effective October 1, 2014, the
Company's 2014 Stock Option and Award Plan (the "2014 Stock Incentive Plan")
was approved by its Board of Directors. Under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan,
the Board of Directors may grant options or purchase rights to purchase common
stock to officers, employees, and other persons who provide services to the
Company or any related company. The participants to whom awards are granted,
the type of awards granted, the number of shares covered for each award, and
the purchase price, conditions and other terms of each award are determined by
the Board of Directors, except that the term of the options shall not exceed 10
years. A total of 2 million shares of the Company's common stock are subject to
the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan. The shares issued for the 2014 Stock Incentive
Plan may be either treasury or authorized and unissued shares. During the year
ended March 31, 2015, the Company granted 35,000 options under the 2014 Stock
Incentive Plan and no options expired or were exercised.

Note
13 - Supplemental Oil And Gas Disclosure (Unaudited)
Estimated Net Quantities Of Oil And Gas Reserves
(Unaudited)
There are numerous uncertainties
inherent in estimating quantities of proved crude oil and natural gas reserves.
Crude oil and natural gas reserve engineering is a subjective process of
estimating underground accumulations of crude oil and natural gas that cannot
be precisely measured. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of
the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation
and judgment. Results of drilling, testing and production subsequent to the
date of the estimate may justify revision of such estimate. Accordingly,
reserves estimates are often different from the quantities of crude oil and
natural gas that are ultimately recovered.
Proved oil and gas reserves are
those quantities of oil and gas, which, by analysis of geoscience and
engineering data, can be estimated with reasonable certainty to be economically
producible - from a given date forward, from known reservoirs, and under
existing economic conditions, operating methods, and government regulations -
prior to the time at which contracts providing the right to operate expire,
unless evidence indicates that renewal is reasonably certain, regardless of
whether deterministic or probabilistic methods are used for the estimation. The
project to extract the hydrocarbons must have commenced or the operator must be
reasonably certain that it will commence the project within a reasonable time.

T-REX OIL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(Formerly Rancher

Notes To The
Consolidated Financial Statements
March 31, 2015 And
2014
The area of the reservoir
considered as proved includes all of the following: (a) the area identified by
drilling and limited by fluid contacts, if any, and (b) adjacent undrilled
portions of the reservoir that can, with reasonable certainty, be judged to be
continuous with it and to contain economically producible oil or gas on the basis
of available geoscience and engineering data. In the absence of data on fluid
contacts, proved quantities in a reservoir are limited by the lowest known
hydrocarbons as seen in a well penetration unless geoscience, engineering, or
performance data and reliable technology establish a lower contact with
reasonable certainty.
Reserves that can be produced
economically through application of improved recovery techniques (including but
not limited to, fluid injection) are included in the proved classification when
both of the following occur: (a) successful testing by a pilot project in an
area of the reservoir with properties no more favorable than in the reservoir
as a whole, the operation of an installed program in the reservoir of an
analogous reservoir, or other evidence of reliable technology establishes the
reasonable certainty of the engineering analysis on which the project or
program was based, and (b) the project has been approved for development by all
necessary parties and entities, including governmental entities.
Existing economic conditions
include prices and costs at which economic productivity from a reservoir is to
be determined. The price shall be the average price during the 12-month period
prior to the ending date of the period covered by the report, determined as an
unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each
month within such period, unless prices are defined by contractual
arrangements, excluding escalations based upon future conditions.
Proved developed oil and gas
reserves are proved reserves that can be expected to be recovered: (i) through
existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods or in which the
cost of the required equipment is relatively minor compared to the costs of a
new well; and (ii) through installed extraction equipment and infrastructure
operational at the time of the reserve estimate if the extraction is by means
not involving a well.
Proved undeveloped oil and gas
reserves are proved 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 shall
be limited to those directly offsetting development spacing areas that are
reasonably certain of production when drilled, unless evidence using reliable
technology exists that establishes reasonable certainty of economic
productivity at greater distances. Undrilled locations can be classified as
having undeveloped reserves only if a development plan has been adopted
indicating that they are scheduled to be drilled within five years, unless the
specific circumstances, justify a longer time. Under no circumstances shall
estimates for undeveloped reserves be 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
projects in the same reservoir or an analogous reservoir, or by other evidence
using reliable technology establishing reasonable certainty.
"Prepared" reserves are those
quantities of reserves which were prepared by an independent petroleum
consultant. "Audited" reserves are those quantities of revenues which were
estimated by the Company's employees and audited by an independent petroleum
consultant. An audit is an examination of a company's proved oil and gas
reserves and net cash flow by an independent petroleum consultant that is
conducted for the purpose of expressing an opinion as to whether such estimates,
in aggregate, are reasonable and have been determined using methods and
procedures widely accepted within the industry and in accordance with SEC
rules.
Estimates of the Company's crude
oil and natural gas reserves and present values at May 31, 2015 were prepared
by Netherland, Sewell & Associates, Inc., independent reserve engineers.

[1] No
income tax provision is included in the standardized measure calculation
shown above as the Company does not project to be taxable or pay cash
income taxes based on its available tax assets and tax assets generated in the development of its reserves
because the tax basis of its oil and gas properties and NOL carryforwards exceed the amount of discounted
future net earnings.
