NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

March 31, 2012

 

(UNAUDITED)

 

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Empire Petroleum Corporation ("Empire" or the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company's financial position, the results of operations, and the cash flows for the interim period are included. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Operating results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012.

 

The information contained in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2011 which are contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 21, 2012.

 

The Company has incurred significant losses in recent years. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to attain future profitable operations and/or additional debt or equity financing until profitable operations are achieved. These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of United States generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a company with continuing operations, which assume that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its obligations in the normal course of operations. Management believes the going concern assumption to be appropriate for these financial statements. If the going concern assumption were not appropriate for these financial statements, then adjustments might be necessary to adjust the carrying value of assets and liabilities and reported expenses.

 

The Company continues to explore and develop its oil and gas interests. The ultimate recoverability of the Company's investment in its oil and gas interests is dependent upon the existence and discovery of economically recoverable oil and gas reserves, confirmation of the Company's interest in the oil and gas interests, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to further develop the interests, and the ability of the Company to attain future profitable production.

 

As of March 31, 2012, the Company had $6,073 of cash on hand. In order to sustain the Company's operations on a long-term basis, the Company continues to look for merger opportunities and consider public or private financings.

 

Compensation of Officers and Employees

 

The Company's only executive officer serves without pay or other compensation. The fair value of these services is estimated by management and is recognized as a capital contribution. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company recorded $12,500 as a capital contribution by its executive officer.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") fair value measurement standards define fair value, establish a consistent framework for measuring fair value and establish a fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs used to measure fair value. The Company's primary marketable asset is cash, and it owns no marketable securities.

 

2. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT:

 

GABBS VALLEY PROSPECT

As of March 31, 2012, the Company's leasehold acreage in the Gabbs Valley Prospect consisted of 34,186 gross acres and the Company’s ownership in such leasehold acreage is 50%.

 

As of December 31, 2005, there had been no wells drilled on the Gabbs Valley Prospect. However, in November 2005, the Company received the results of a 19-mile 2-D swath seismograph survey conducted on the prospect and, based on the results of the survey, the Company and its partners determined that a test well should be drilled on the prospect.

 

The Company drilled its first test well on this prospect in 2006. After reaching 5,195 feet in connection with drilling this well (the Empire Cobble Cuesta 1-12), the Company and its partners elected to suspend operations on the well, and released the drilling rig and associated equipment. Company personnel and consultants then evaluated the drilling and logging data and after the study was completed, Empire and its partners decided to conduct a thorough testing program on the well. The Company re-entered the well on April 17, 2007 and conducted a series of drill stem tests and recovered only drilling mud. It was then determined after considerable study that the formation is likely very sensitive to mud and water used in drilling which may have caused clays in the formation to swell preventing any oil that might be present to flow into the well bore.

 

In 2008, the Company and its partners engaged W. L. Gore and Associates to carry out an Amplified Geochemical Imaging Survey which covered approximately sixteen square miles. The survey was concentrated along the apex of the large Cobble Cuesta structure which included the areas around the Empire Cobble Cuesta 1-12 exploratory test and the other test well drilled in the immediate area. Both of these tests encountered oil shows and the geochemical survey indicated potential hydrocarbons beyond the two well bores. Thereafter, a new Federal drilling unit was formed and approved by the Bureau of Land Management. This unit was known as the Paradise Drilling Unit.

 

In July 2010, the Company entered into a farm-in agreement with its joint lease holders holding a 41% working interest in the 40,073 acre Paradise Unit. On July 19, 2010, the Company commenced drilling a test well in the Paradise Unit on the Gabbs Valley Prospect in Nevada. The Company drilled the Paradise Unit 2-12 test well to a depth of 4,250 feet before drilling problems caused the Company to cease drilling. The Company tested the well between 3,700 feet and 3,782 feet where oil shows were found. The Company recovered small amounts of oil containing paraffin, which may have been restricting the oil flow. However, swab tests failed to increase the oil flow and the Company has suspended operations on the well and assigned the lease and the 1-12 and 2-12 wells to the other leasehold owners from which the

Company had taken a farmout. The new owners are performing further testing on the 2-12 well and assumed liabilities associated with the lease and both the 1-12 and 2-12 wells. The Company has utilized the results to date of the testing and other factors to determine its next action with respect to the Gabbs Valley leasehold. The Company is now looking for an industry partner to take a farmout on approximately 25,000 acres with the obligation to drill a Triassic test well or to a depth of 7,000 feet, whichever first occurs.

 

SOUTH OKIE PROSPECT

 

In 2009, the Company purchased 2,630 net acres of oil and gas leases known as the South Okie Prospect in Natrona County, Wyoming. The Tensleep Sand at depths from 3,300 feet to 4,500 feet is the primary target. As of December 31, 2009, the Company acquired 11 miles of seismic data and studies of this data were completed in early January 2010. An additional geological study was also completed in early January 2010. Subject to securing additional financing and/or engaging an industry partner, the Company plans to drill or cause to be drilled another test well.

 

3. NOTE PAYABLE - RELATED PARTY

 

On February 1, 2011, The Albert E. Whitehead Living Trust, under the terms of a convertible note, advanced $100,000 to the Company. The note has a term of one (1) year and accrues interest at the rate of four (4) percent per annum. No principal or interest has been paid on the note. At March 31, 2012, $4,250 of interest had accrued. The principal and interest owed under the note may be converted by the holder into common stock at the conversion price of $0.10 per share. The maturity date of the note has been extended to August 1, 2012. In January 2012, The Albert E. Whitehead Living Trust advanced an additional $33,603 to the Company.

 

In April 2012, the Company executed another convertible note in favor of The Albert E. Whitehead Living Trust for the January 2012 advance of $33,603 and an additional $100,000 of proceeds. The note is due in April 2013 and accrues interest at the rate of four (4) percent per annum. The principal and interest owed under the note may be converted by the holder into common stock at the conversion price of $0.05 per share. (See Note 5)

 

4. EQUITY

 

On February 28, 2011, Kevin R. Seth, the newest member of the Company's Board of Directors, was issued options to purchase 150,000 shares of the Company's common stock under the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan at a strike price of $0.10

per share. The options immediately vested and expire after ten years. The Company recorded an expense of $11,295 for the options. Fair values were estimated at the date of grant of the options, using the Black-Scholes Option Valuation Model with the following weighted average assumptions: risk free interest rate of 3.42%, volatility factor of the expected market price of the Company's common stock of 172%, no dividend yield, and a weighted average expected life of the options of 5 years. For the purpose of determining the expected life of the options, the Company utilizes the Simplified Method as defined in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 issued by the SEC.

 

Diluted EPS (Earnings per Share) gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on losses. As a result, if there is a loss from continuing operations, Diluted EPS is computed in the same manner as Basic EPS. At March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had 1,245,000 options outstanding, that were not included in the calculation of earnings per share for the periods then ended. Such financial instruments may become dilutive and would then need to be included in future calculations of Diluted EPS. At March 31, 2012 and 2011, the outstanding options were considered anti-dilutive since the strike prices were above the market price and since the Company has incurred losses year to date.

 

On August 24, 2011, Albert E. Whitehead, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, was issued 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for a purchase price of $.05 per share for a total investment of $100,000.

 

5. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

 

On April 16, 2012, The Albert E. Whitehead Living Trust advanced $100,000 to the Company under the terms of a convertible note from the Company (See Note 3).

 

Item 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

GENERAL TO ALL PERIODS

 

The Company's primary business is the exploration and development of oil and gas interests. The Company has incurred significant losses from operations, and there is no assurance that it will achieve profitability or obtain the funds necessary to finance its operations. For all periods presented, the Company's effective tax rate is 0%. The Company has generated net operating losses since inception, which would normally reflect a tax benefit in the statement of operations and a deferred asset on the balance sheet. However, because of the current uncertainty as to the Company's ability to achieve profitability, a valuation reserve has been established that offsets the amount of any tax benefit available for each period presented in the statements of operations.

 

THREE MONTH PERIOD ENDED MARCH 31, 2012, COMPARED TO THREE MONTH PERIOD

ENDED MARCH 31, 2011.

 

Production and operating expenses increased $23,440 to $12,161 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, from $(11,279) for the same period in 2011. The increase was due to the lease rentals paid for Gabbs Valley leases in 2012 while 2011 included refunds of certain drilling costs which had been expensed in 2010.

 

General and administrative expenses decreased by $13,436 to $67,296 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, from $80,732 for the same period in 2011. The decrease was primarily due to the stock options issued in 2011.

 

Other income decreased by $7 to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, from $7 for the same period in 2011.

 

There was no depreciation expense attributable to the three months ended March 31, 2012 or March 31, 2011 because the depreciable assets were fully depreciated.

 

For the reasons discussed above, net loss increased $(10,761) from $(69,696) for the three months ended March 31, 2011, to $(80,457) for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

 

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) periodically issues new accounting standards in a continuing effort to improve standards of financial accounting and reporting. The Company has reviewed the recently issued pronouncements and no new accounting standards have been adopted since the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 was filed with the SEC.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

GENERAL

 

As of March 31, 2012, the Company had $6,073 of cash on hand. The Company believes that its cash on hand will allow it to finance its operations for the next month. In order to sustain the Company's operations on a long-term basis, the Company intends to continue to look for merger opportunities and consider public or private financings. The Company plans to undertake further exploration of the Gabbs Valley and South Okie Prospects in 2012. The Company will likely look to industry partners to drill the next wells on these prospects.

 

OUTLOOK

 

As stated elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, on May 1, 2007, after further testing of the Company's 1-12 well in the Gabbs Valley Prospect, the Company decided to partially plug and abandon the well since no hydrocarbons were recovered. However, the Company was encouraged by the data it acquired in connection with the drilling, logging and testing of the well. Such data, additional studies of such data, the assistance of geological and engineering consultants and an Advanced Geochemical Imaging Survey conducted in December 2008 led the Company to determine that further drilling was warranted. It is possible that excessive mud exposure in the hole for over five months seriously impeded the process of recovering hydrocarbons. It was determined that a new test well should be drilled using a different method of drilling.

 

The Company drilled the Paradise Unit 2-12 well to a depth of 4,250 feet before drilling problems caused the Company to cease drilling. The Company recovered small amounts of oil containing paraffin, which may have been restricting the oil flow. However, swab tests failed to increase the oil flow and the Company suspended operations on the well and assigned the lease and the 1-12 and 2-12 wells to the other leasehold owners from which the Company had taken a farmout. The new owners are performing further testing on the 2-12 well and assumed the liabilities associated with the lease and both the 1-12 and 2-12 wells. The Company will reassess its plans for the Gabbs Valley leasehold, however, additional studies indicate potential drill sites exist on the remaining acreage and the Company plans to attempt to associate with industry partner(s) to drill another test well this year on this prospect with the timing of such test not predictable at this time.

 

Subject to securing additional financing and/or engaging an industry partner, the Company plans to drill or cause to be drilled a test well on its South Okie Prospect in 2012.

 

MATERIAL RISKS

 

The Company has incurred significant losses from operations and there is no assurance that it will achieve profitability or obtain the funds necessary to finance continued operations. For other material risks, see the Company's Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2011, which was filed on March 21, 2012.

 

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including this section, includes certain statements that may be deemed "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of federal securities laws. All statements, other than statements of historical facts, that address activities, events or developments that the Company expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future, including future sources of financing and other possible business developments, are forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties and could be affected by a number of different factors, including the Company's failure to secure short and long-term financing necessary to sustain and grow its operations, increased competition, changes in the markets in which the Company participates and the technology utilized by the Company and new legislation regarding environmental matters. These risks and other risks that could affect the Company's business are more fully described in reports it files with the SEC, including its Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. Actual results may vary materially from the forward-looking statements.

 

The Company undertakes no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q.

 

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation under the supervision of the Company's Chief Executive Officer (and principal financial officer) of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based on this evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer (and principal financial officer) has concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report are effective. During the period covered by this report, there was no change in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that has materially affected or that is reasonably likely to materially affect the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 5. Other information
