FREEDOM PETROLEUM, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
APRIL 30, 2015
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – GENERAL ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS
Freedom Petroleum, Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, U.S. on June 13, 2012. The Company originally intended to engage in the exploration and development of oil and gas properties. In April 2015, after reviewing the markets with investor appetite and management's duties to its shareholders, the Company determined to discontinue its oil and gas operation. Currently, the Company is exploring opportunities in the computer gaming and application industry. The Company’s fiscal year end is July 31.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRACTICES
Basis of Presentation
The interim financial information referred to above has been prepared and presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States applicable to interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. The interim financial information has been prepared on a basis consistent with prior interim periods and years and includes all disclosures that are necessary and required by applicable laws and regulations. This report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2014.
The unaudited financial statement and notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). These interim financial statements include all adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The results of operations are not necessarily indicative of the results of the entire year.
Discontinued Operations
Operations of oil and gas are excluded from the Company’s Statements of Operations to present this business in discontinued operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. The more significant areas requiring the use of estimates include asset impairment, stock-based compensation, and future income tax amounts. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on other assumptions considered to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results may differ from the estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company had $35,414 and $76,108 of cash at April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and amounts due to related parties. The fair value of these financial instruments approximate carrying amounts due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.
7
Revenue Recognition
The Company has yet to realize revenues from operations. The Company will recognize revenue when delivery of goods or completion of services has occurred provided there is persuasive evidence of an agreement, acceptance has been approved by its customers, the fee is fixed or determinable based on the completion of stated terms and conditions, and collection of any related receivable is reasonably assured.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with the guidance of FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and credited to additional paid-in capital over the period during which services are rendered. Stock-based expenses totaled $0 and $175,000, for the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014.
The Company follows ASC Topic 505-50, formerly EITF 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods and Services,” for stock options and warrants issued to consultants and other non-employees. In accordance with ASC Topic 505-50, these stock options and warrants issued as compensation for services provided to the Company are accounted for based upon the fair value of the services provided or the estimated fair market value of the option or warrant, whichever can be more clearly determined. There has been no stock-based compensation issued to non-employees.
Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes using an asset and liability approach. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect currently. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. No provision for income taxes is included in the statement due to its immaterial amount, net of the allowance account, based on the likelihood of the Company to utilize the loss carry-forward.
Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common stock equivalents outstanding as at April 30, 2015 and 2014.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-15 Preparation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. Under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), continuation of a reporting entity as a going concern is presumed as the basis for preparing financial statements unless and until the entity's liquidation becomes imminent. Preparation of financial statements under this presumption is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting. If and when an entity's liquidation becomes imminent, financial statements should be prepared under the liquidation basis of accounting in accordance with Subtopic 205-30, Presentation of Financial Statements—Liquidation Basis of Accounting. Even when an entity's liquidation is not imminent, there may be conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. In those situations, financial statements should continue to be prepared under the going concern basis of accounting, but the amendments in this Update should be followed to determine whether to disclose information about the relevant conditions and events. The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company will evaluate the going concern considerations in this ASU, however, at the current period, management does not believe that it has met conditions which would subject these financial statements for additional disclosure.
8
In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, which eliminated certain financial reporting requirements of companies previously identified as "Development Stage Entities" (Topic 915). The amendments in this ASU simplify accounting guidance by removing all incremental financial reporting requirements for development stage entities. The amendments also reduce data maintenance and, for those entities subject to audit, audit costs by eliminating the requirement for development stage entities to present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity. Early application of each of the amendments is permitted for any annual reporting period or interim period for which the entity's financial statements have not yet been issued (public business entities) or made available for issuance (other entities). Upon adoption, entities will no longer present or disclose any information required by Topic 915. The Company has adopted this standard.
Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued. The Company's management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
NOTE 3 – OIL AND NATURAL GAS PROPERTIES
On October 10, 2014, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Shalex Corporation (“Shalex”) (the “Agreement”) whereby the Company purchased a one hundred percent (100%) undivided working interest and shall receive 87% Net Revenue Interest (NRI) in certain oil and gas interests (Crown Land) and properties arising from the oil and gas leases (the “Leases”), which together comprise a parcel of 2,304 hectares in the Bentley area of Alberta, Canada (the “Property”) and the Pre-Existing Well (the "Well").
During the nine months ended April 30, 2015, the Company capitalized $50,000 acquisition costs and $11,299 maintenance costs for this oil and gas properties. In April 2015, after reviewing the markets with investor appetite and management's duties to its shareholders, the Company determined that it is not the best time to move ahead with the type of oil exploration venture contemplated by the Agreement. Accordingly, on April 28, 2015, Shalex and the Company signed a letter agreeing to mutually terminate the Agreement. As a result, the Company wrote off the $61,299 oil and gas properties previously capitalized.
As at April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the Company had oil and gas property costs of $0 and $0, respectively.

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act, net operating loss carry-forwards of $730,613 for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carry-forwards may be limited as to use in future years.
NOTE 8 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
There were no commitments or contingencies as of January 31, 2015.
NOTE 9 – GOING CONCERN
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has a capital deficiency of $39,815 and has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $730,613 as at April 30, 2015. Further losses are anticipated in the development of the business, raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
11
The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with loans from directors and/or private placement of common stock.
NOTE 10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On May 27, 2015, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to its CEO as per the terms of his employment agreement.
During the three months ended April 30, 2015, $185,000 was received and reported as common stock subscriptions. On May 20, 2015, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with each of two non-US investors, pursuant to Regulation S, as promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended regarding such subscriptions. Pursuant to the purchase agreements, the investors purchased an aggregate of 984,375 shares of the Company's common stock for $315,000 (the "Purchase Price"), at a value of $0.32 per share. $70,000 of these subscriptions however was received in May 2015.
On April 8, 2015, the Company signed a non-binding letter of intent with Steampunk Wizards Ltd. (“Steampunk”) to acquire 100% interest of Steampunk. In May 2015, $84,861(Euro 75,000) was paid by the Company to Steampunk as deposit for the acquisition; however, a number of material conditions to close, including an audit of Steampunk and drafting and negotiating definitive acquisition agreements, must be satisfied and therefore the acquisition may never occur.
In May 2015, the Company's Board of Directors adopted and approved, and the holders of the majority of the common stock voting power adopted and approved by written consent, an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to Steampunk Wizards, Inc. to expand the range of business operations that can be associated with our corporate name (the “Name Change") and to effect a 1:2.5 reverse stock split (the “Stock Split,” together with the Name Change, the “Corporate Actions”). Following the proper notice provisions, the Corporate Actions are expected to take place on or about July 2, 2015. Following such date, the Company’s common stock will trade under the symbol SPWZ.

All references in this Form 10-Q to the “Company,” “Freedom Petroleum,” “we,” “us,” or “our” are to Freedom Petroleum, Inc.
Our unaudited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
Overview
Freedom Petroleum, Inc. (the “Company”), an exploration stage company, was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 13, 2012. We originally intended to engage in the exploration and development of oil and gas properties. In April 2015, after reviewing the markets with investor appetite and management's duties to its shareholders, the Company determined to discontinue its oil and gas operation. Currently, the Company is exploring opportunities in the computer gaming and application industry.
In January 2014, we were a party to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Agreement") by and among ourselves, certain of our shareholders (the "Selling Shareholders") owning an aggregate of 27,000,000 shares (approximately 51.7%) of our common stock (the "Sold Stock") and Anton Lin ("Lin"). Pursuant to the Agreement, Lin purchased the Sold Stock for $27,000 (the "Purchase Price") from the Selling Shareholders in a private sale transaction (the "Private Sale"). The Selling Shareholders were our former sole officer and director: Thomas Hynes ("Hynes") and corporate secretary: Nina Bijedic ("Bijedic"). Pursuant to the Agreement, Hynes and Bijedic submitted their resignations from all positions held with us; prior to the closing of the Private Sale, our Board of Directors appointed Lin as our sole director and Chief Executive Officer, which appointment took effect immediately following the close of the Private Sale. Following the Private Sale, a change in control occurred since Mr. Lin gained ownership of almost 52% of our outstanding common stock.
We have had limited operations and have been issued a "going concern" opinion by our auditor, based upon our reliance on the sale of our common stock as the sole source of funds for our future operations.
Plan of Operation
We are a start-up, development-stage company and have not yet generated or realized any revenues from our business operations.
13
During the last period, the Company has been assessing the impact of the fall in oil prices on the sector, and considering the outlook for the sector. On April 28, 2015, the Company and Shalex Corporation terminated their Purchase and Sale Agreement. Additionally, because of the downturn in the oil industry, the Company has been considering changing its business operations away from oil and gas. As part of this process, the Company is exploring opportunities in the computer gaming and application industry, although no definitive agreements have been signed and the Company may not pursue or complete any such opportunities.
On April 8, 2015, the Company signed a letter of intent with Steampunk Wizards Ltd. (“Steampunk”) to acquire 100% interest of Steampunk. In May 2015, $84,861(Euro 75,000) was paid by the Company to Steampunk as deposit was paid by the Company to Steampunk as deposit for the acquisition; however, a number of material conditions to close, including an audit of Steampunk and drafting and negotiating definitive acquisition agreements, must be satisfied and therefore the acquisition may never occur.
Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion on our audited financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2014. This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated until we begin removing and selling minerals. There is no assurance we will ever reach this point. Accordingly, we must raise cash from other sources. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments by others. We must raise cash to implement our project and stay in business. As of April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the Company had $35,414 and $76,108 in cash on hand, respectively.
Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital
There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We have not generated any revenues from operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in the exploration of our properties, and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services. We do not believe we have sufficient funds to operate our business for the next 12 months.
We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations. Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.
If we are unable to raise additional capital to maintain our operations in the future, we may be unable to carry out our full business plan or we may be forced to cease operations.
We are currently dependent on our sole officer and director for providing the necessary capital to operate. For the period ended April 30, 2015, our officer has advanced a total of $61,067, for operating expenses.
Results of Operations
The following summary of our results of operations, for the three months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2014, as included in our Form 10-K filed on October 29, 2014.
Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation. We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to achieve same.

For the Three Months Ended April 30, 2015 Compared to the Three Months Ended April 30, 2014
During the nine months ended April 30, 2015, after reviewing the markets with investor appetite and management's duties to its shareholders, the Company determined that it is not the best time to move ahead with the type of oil exploration venture contemplated by the Agreement. Accordingly, on April 28, 2015, Shalex and the Company signed a letter agreeing to mutually terminate the Agreement. As a result, the Company wrote off the $61,299 oil and gas properties previously capitalized.
Our operating expenses for discontinued operations of oil and gas, for the three months ended April 30, 2015 decreased $120,413 or 50% as compared to the same period in 2014. During the three month period ended April 30, 2015, we recorded a $30,000 consulting fee to the sole officer and director, who is also our majority shareholder pursuant to his employment contract, compared to no expenses for the same period in 2014. During the three month period ended April 30, 2014, we recorded $175,000 for stock-based compensation, for 500,000 shares issued to the sole officer and director, who is also our majority shareholder pursuant to his employment contract. Expenses, from professional, general and administrative fees, were $26,800 for the three months ended April 30, 2015 as compared to $63,512 for the same period in 2014. This decrease was largely due to decreased general and administrative fees and professional fees during the three month period ended April 30, 2015 of $31,228 and $5,484, respectively.
For the Nine Months Ended April 30, 2015 Compared to the Nine Months Ended April 30, 2014
During the nine months ended April 30, 2015, after reviewing the markets with investor appetite and management's duties to its shareholders, the Company determined that it is not the best time to move ahead with the type of oil exploration venture contemplated by the Agreement. Accordingly, on April 28, 2015, Shalex and the Company signed a letter agreeing to mutually terminate the Agreement. As a result, the Company wrote off the $61,299 oil and gas properties previously capitalized.
Our operating expenses for discontinued operations of oil and gas, for the nine months ended April 30, 2015 increased $8,485 or 3% as compared to the same period in 2014. During the nine month period ended April 30, 2015, we recorded $22,688 for website development costs and a $90,000 consulting fee to the sole officer and director, who is also our majority shareholder pursuant to his employment contract, compared to no expenses for these items for the same period in 2014. Stock-based compensation was $0 for 2015 as compared to $175,000 for 2014. Expenses, from professional, general and administrative fees, were $122,680 for the nine months ended April 30, 2015 as compared to $113,182 for the same period in 2014. This increase was due to increased professional fees during the nine month period ended April 30, 2015 of $32,433, which were offset by a decrease in general and administrative expenses of $22,935.
The nine month period ending April 30, 2014 was principally the start-up period for the Company. Costs were lower due to less activities and cash flow was realized through the issuance of shares to fund the Company’s initial operations. During the nine month period ended April 30, 2015, we sought to increase the focus of the Company's activity and operations. We spent significant resources on development of a new website, and incurred increased professional and administrative expenses, thus increasing operating expenditures. We expect operating expenses to continue to increase over the next 12 months as we expand our operations.

Critical Accounting Policy and Estimates
We prepare our financial statements in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions and apply judgments. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be important at the time the financial statements are prepared and actual results could differ from our estimates and such differences could be material. Due to the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain, materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. On a regular basis, we review our critical accounting policies and how they are applied in the preparation our financial statements. Please refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 2014, for disclosures regarding the Company's critical accounting policies and estimates, as well as any updates further disclosed in our interim financial statements as described in this Form 10-Q.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that is material to investors.
Item 4. Control and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of July 31, 2014 and April 30, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules, regulations and forms, and (ii) that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
