Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Cause No. 08-04-07047-CV; Oz Gas Corporation v. Remuda Operating Company, et al. v. Victory Energy Corporation.; In the 112th District Court of Crockett County, Texas.
Plaintiff Oz Gas Corporation sued Victory Energy Corporation and other parties for bad faith trespass, among other claims, regarding the drilling of two wells on lands that Oz (“OZ”) claims title to Victory Energy Corporation has a 50% interest in one of the named wells involved in this lawsuit (that being well 155-2 on the Adams Baggett Ranch in Crockett County, Texas). The lawsuit was originally filed against other parties in April 2008, and Victory intervened in the case on November 18, 2009 to protect its interest in the 155-2 well.
The case was tried in February 2012. The Court found in favor of Oz and rendered verdict against Victory and the other defendants for the sum of $137,000. Victory Energy Corporation has appealed this decision to the 8th Court of Appeals in El Paso, Texas, and the case has been fully briefed and submitted.
Cause No. CV-47,230; James Capital Energy, LLC and Victory Energy Corporation v. Jim Dial, et al.; In the 142nd District Court of Midland County, Texas.
This lawsuit was filed in the 142nd District Court of Midland County, Texas on January 19, 2010 by James Capital Energy, LLC and Victory Energy Corporation against numerous parties for fraud, fraudulent inducement, and negligent misrepresentation, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, trespass, conversion and a few other related causes of action. This lawsuit stems from an investment made by Victory for the purchase of six wells on the Adams Baggett Ranch.
On December 9, 2010, Victory was granted an interlocutory Default Judgment against Defendants Jim Dial, 1st Texas Natural Gas Company, Inc., Universal Energy Resources, Inc., Grifco International, Inc., and Precision Drilling & Exploration, Inc. The total judgment amounted to approximately $17.2 million. Recently Victory has added additional parties to this lawsuit. Discovery is ongoing in this case and no trial date has been set at this time.
Victory believes that it will be victorious against all the remaining Defendants in this case.
On October 20, 2011 Defendant Remuda filed a Motion to Consolidate and a Counterclaim against Victory. Remuda is seeking to consolidate this case with two other cases in which Remuda is the named Defendant. An objection to this motion was filed and the cases have not been consolidated. Additionally, we do not believe that the counterclaim made by Remuda has any legal merit.
Cause No. 10-09-07213; Perry Howell, et al. v. Charles Gary Garlitz, et al.; In the 112th District Court of Crockett County, Texas.
The above referenced lawsuit was filed in the 112th District Court of Crockett County, Texas on September 6, 2010. This lawsuit alleges that Cambrian Management, Ltd. and Victory Energy Corporation trespassed on lands owned by the Plaintiffs in the drilling of the Adams-Baggett 115-8 well in Crockett County, Texas.
Discovery is ongoing in this case and the case is set for trial in July 2014. Victory Energy Corporation believes that the claims have no merit and that it will prevail.
Cause No. D-1-GN-13-00044; Aurora Energy Partners and Victory Energy Corporation v. Crooked Oaks; In the 261st District Court of Travis County, Texas.
The Company has yet to collect an installment balance of $200,000 for the sale of its Jones County, Texas oil and gas interests in May of 2012. The Company believes it will ultimately recover this receivable, but has provided for it as an allowance for doubtful accounts, and has not included it in the net accounts receivable balance of the Company’s 2012 consolidated financial statements.

Item 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act, and as such, are not required to provide the information required under this Item.
Item 7. MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion is intended to assist you in understanding our business and results of operations together with our present financial condition. This section should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included elsewhere in this report. Statements in our discussion may be forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. We caution that a number of factors could cause future production, revenues and expenses to differ materially from our expectations.
The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors that have affected certain aspects of our financial position and results of operations during the periods included in the accompanying audited consolidated financial statements.
Forward Looking Statements
This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements concerning our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates, intentions, operations, future results and prospects, including statements that include the words “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “believe,” “expect,” “will,” “shall,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are based upon current expectations and are subject to risk, uncertainties and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, expected, projected, intended, committed or believed. We provide the following cautionary statement identifying important factors (some of which are beyond our control) which could cause the actual results or events to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by the forward-looking statements and related assumptions.
General Overview
The Company is an independent, growth oriented oil and natural gas company engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and production of oil and natural gas properties, through its partnership with Navitus in Aurora. The Company’s objective is to create long-term shareholder value by increasing oil and natural gas reserves, improving financial returns (higher production volumes and lower costs), and managing the capital on its balance sheets.
We are geographically focused onshore, with a primary focus in the Permian Basin of Texas and southeast New Mexico. The Company leverages both internal capabilities and strategic industry relationships to acquire working interest positions in low-to-moderate risk oil and natural gas prospects. Our focus is on oil or liquid-rich gas projects with longer-life reserves that offer competitive finding and development (F&D) costs.
At the end of 2012, the Company held a working interest in 21 wells located in Texas and New Mexico, predominantly in the Permian Basin of West Texas.
Our primary company business objective is to grow proved reserves through new drilling and grow the value of those reserves by focusing on oil. For 2012, we achieved both a shift toward oil and increase in proved reserves through successful drilling. We also added properties large enough to offer new multi-well drilling opportunities in the future. These efforts created a year to year increase of 12% in proved reserves for 2012.
Our revenue, profitability, cash flow, oil and natural gas reserves value, future growth, and ability to borrow funds or obtain additional capital, as well as the carrying value of our properties, are substantially dependent on prevailing prices oil and natural gas. Historically, the markets for oil and natural gas have been volatile, and those markets are likely to continue to be volatile in the future. It is impossible to predict with certainty future prices for oil and natural gas, as such prices are subject to wide fluctuations in response to relatively minor changes in the supply of and demand for oil and natural gas, market uncertainty, and a variety of additional factors beyond our control.
Going Concern
As presented in the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of $6.7 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, and losses are expected to continue in the near term. The accumulated deficit at December 31, 2012 was $35.2 million. The Company has been funding its operations through the sale of senior convertible 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and from contributions made by its partners. Management anticipates that significant additional capital expenditures will be necessary to develop the Company’s oil and natural gas properties, which consist of proved and unproved reserves, some of which may be non-producing, before significant positive operating cash flows will be achieved.
Management is pursuing business partnering arrangements for the acquisition and development of its properties as well as debt and equity funding through private placements. Without outside investment from the sale of equity securities, debt financing or partnering with other oil and natural gas companies, operating activities and overhead expenses will be reduced to a pace that will match available operating cash flows.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not contain adjustments, including adjustments to recorded assets and liabilities, which might be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.
Results of Operations
Comparison of Year Ended December 31, 2012 to Year Ended December 31, 2011
Revenues: All of our revenue was derived from the sale of oil and natural gas. Revenues consist of the proceeds of sales, net of royalty, and gas transportation deductions. Our net revenue increased $21,204 or 7% to $326,384 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 from $305,180 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011. The increase reflects primarily the increase in oil production revenues which increased $82,428 to $139,320 for the 12 months ended December 31, 2012, from $56,892 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011.
Lease Operating Expenses: Lease operating expenses which includes the operating expenses of obtaining the oil and natural gas increased $4,551 or 4% to $126,131 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 from $121,580 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011. The increase in lease operating expenses reflects an increase in the number of operating properties for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Dry Hole Costs: Dry Hole costs increased $54,678 or 100% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 from $0 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011. The Company incurred dry holes costs in connection with the drilling of the Saddle Butte Prospect in Pecos County, Texas in 2012.
Production Taxes: Production taxes are charged at the well head for the production of gas and oil. Production taxes decreased $14,507 or 37% to $24,649 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 from $39,156 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011. Although our revenues increased for 2012, our productions taxes were down because a larger percentage of our 2012 revenue came from oil sales which carry a lower tax of 4.6% versus 7.5% for natural gas.
Gain on Settlement with Former Officer: Gain on settlement with former officer decreased 100% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 from $404,624 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011.
Exploration Expense: Exploration expenses decreased $293,009 or 52% to $266,514 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 from $559,523 for the twelve months ending December 31, 2011. The change is not considered meaningful and simply reflects the timing of expenses for exploration activities.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses increased $729,171 or 35% to $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $2.1 million for the year ending December 31, 2011. The Cash G&A burn rate was higher for 2012 primarily due to additional headcount in Austin and non-recurring costs associated with the transfer of accounting services from California to Texas.
Depletion, Depreciation, and Accretion: Depletion and accretion expenses decreased $31,501 or 38% to $51,172 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 from $82,673 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011. The decrease was due to the reduction in the amount of assets subject to depletion as a result of the sale of the Jones County/Atwood properties in May, 2012 and property impairments.
Impairment of Oil and Natural Gas Properties: Impairment of oil and natural gas properties increased $241,774 or 236% to $344,353 from $102,579 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012. This is primarily due to our Uno Mas well which was deemed not commercial and a charge associated with the write-off of other undeveloped land costs in New Mexico.
Gain on Sale of Oil and Natural Gas Properties: Gain on sale of oil and natural gas properties increased $275,489 or 100% for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012. This is due to the sale of our Jones County property.
Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $2,194,941 or 121% to $4,009,979 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 from $1,815,038 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011. Virtually all of the interest expense was associated with the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures which were converted to common stock on February 29, 2012.
Income Taxes: There is no provision for income tax expenses recorded for either the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 or ended December 31, 2011 due to the expected net operating losses (NOL) of both years. The previously reported twelve months ended December 31, 2011 was restated to eliminate a tax benefit provision which was determined to not be realizable when applying ASC 740, based upon net realizable value evaluation. We had available Federal income tax net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of 13,807,335 at December 31, 2012. Our NOL generally begins to expire in 2027.
The realization of future tax benefits is dependent on our ability to generate taxable income within the carry forward period. Given the Company’s history of net operating losses, management has determined that it is more-likely-than-not the Company will not be able to realize the tax benefit of the carry forwards. Current standards require that a valuation allowance thus be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
All tax benefits recognized in 2011 and 2012 due to the temporary difference in tax effect between the accounting and tax basis of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures were eliminated when the Debenture were converted to common stock on February 29, 2012.
Net Loss: Net losses increased 82% or $3,033,676 to $6,739,678 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 from a net loss of $3,706,002 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011. This net loss should be viewed in light of the cash flow from operations discussed below.
During the year ended December 31, 2012, as with the year ended December 31, 2011, after adjusting for one-time gains, we did not generate positive cash flow from on-going operations. As a result, we funded our operations through the private sale of equity and debt securities, the issuance of our securities in exchange for services, and loans.

At December 31, 2012, we had a working capital surplus of $111,130 compared to a working capital deficit of $105,020 at December 31, 2011. Current liabilities decreased to $273,209 at December 31, 2012 from $689,383 at December 31, 2011 primarily due to a decrease of $322,634 in accounts payable, a decrease in accrued interest of $124,628, a decrease in the liability for unauthorized preferred stock of $22,881, and an increase of $53,969 in accrued liabilities.
The Company had a $6.7 million net loss, of which $5 million was in non-cash, resulting in $2.6 million net cash used by operating activities. This compares to cash used by operating activities for the twelve months ended December 31, 2011 of $2.0 million after the net loss for the period of $3.7 million was decreased by $2.2 million in non-cash charges and increased by $272,277 in changes to the working capital accounts.
Net cash used in investing activities, excluding exploration-related charges taken directly to income and prepaid receivables for drilling cost, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 was $516,533. This includes $8,925 for the drilling and completion of wells, $675,058 for the acquisition of land, $200,000 of proceeds from the sale of oil and natural gas properties, and $32,550 for the purchase of furniture and fixtures. This compares to $597,724 of net cash used by investing activities for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2011 which included $219,700 for the acquisition of producing wells, $369,695 for the drilling and completion of wells and $8,329 for the purchase of furniture and fixtures.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 was $2.8 million. Of this amount, $1.8 million came from the sale of 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and $1.1 million came from contributions from Navitus. This compares to the $3.0 million in cash provided by financing activities during the twelve months ended December 31, 2011, of which $3.1 million came from the sale of 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010
Revenues: All of our revenue was derived from the sale of natural gas. Our revenues decreased $63,585 or 43% to $85,786 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $149,371 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease reflects both a decline in volume of gas sold to 11,675 MCF in the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to 21,406 MCF for the three months ended March 31, 2010 and the decrease in the average natural gas price received of $7.35 per MCF for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $6.98 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decline in gas production is attributable to the normal productivity decline that occurs with these types of wells over time.
Costs of Production: Our cost of production, including lease operating costs and production taxes increased $34,744 or 293% to $46,626 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $11,882 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This increase is due to additional operating expenses and other one-time charges associated with on-going well production.
Exploration Expense: Exploration expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2011 was $73,132. This compares to no exploration expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2010. This increase in exploration expense reflects a higher level of exploration activities.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses increased $456,868 or 288% to $615,296 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $158,428 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase reflects a number of one-time charges including accounting, auditing, and legal expenses to bring the Company current on its SEC filings, the final settlement with the former officer of the Company, and the increase in salaries and expenses associated with the startup of the Austin office.
Depletion and Accretion: Depletion, accretion, and depreciation declined $12,781 or 51% to $12,202 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $24,983 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease was due to the lower amount of asset cost basis available to deplete following the impairment adjustment of 2010.
Gain on Settlement: On March 24, 2011, we entered into a comprehensive Settlement Agreement with Jon Fullenkamp in which Fullenkamp gave up his claim to several amounts reported by us as owing to him. The elimination of the claims were made to the consolidated financial statements in 2010 and reported in the both the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the 2010 Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q which had not been filed at the time of the settlement.
Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $204,860 or 2,483% to $213,112 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 from $8,252 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Of this amount, $170,086 represents the amortization of the non-cash debt discount associated with the sale of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and $43,026 represents the actual interest expense due on the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures.
Income Taxes: There is no provision for income tax recorded for either the three months ended March 31, 2011 or for the three months ended March 31, 2010 due to the expected operating losses of both years. The original provision of an income tax benefit of $58,105 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 has been eliminated in restatement due to applying a net realizable value evaluation. We had available Federal income tax net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of approximately $5.5 million at December 31, 2010. Our NOL generally begins to expire in 2027.
Net Income (Loss): We had a net loss of $363,567 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, due primarily to the one-time gain of $404,624 on the settlement with our former executive officer. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we had a net loss of $76,934. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, as with the three months ended March 31, 2010, we did not generate positive cash flow from normal operations. As a result, we funded our operations through the private sale of equity and debt securities, the issuance of our securities in exchange for services, and loans.

At March 31, 2011, we had a working capital deficit of $397,099 compared to a working capital deficit of $712,165 at March 31, 2010. Current liabilities decreased to $677,905 at March 31, 2011 from $894,949 at March 31, 2010 primarily due to the conversion of short term notes payable and accrued interest due a related party to a 10% Senior Debenture.
Net cash used by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 totaled $505,505 after the cash used in the net loss of $363,567 was decreased by $201,248 in non-cash charges and increased by $109,724 in net increases in the working capital accounts.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2010
Revenues: All of our revenue was derived from the sale of oil and natural gas. Our revenues decreased $37,055 or 31% to $81,873 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $118,928 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease reflects a decline in volume of gas sold to 10,931 MCF in the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 21,032 MCF for the three months ended June 30, 2010 offset by an in increase in the average natural gas price received of $7.49 per MCF for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $5.65 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The decline in gas production is attributable to the normal productivity decline that occurs with these types of wells over time.
Costs of Production: Our cost of production, including lease operating costs and production taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2011 were $39,074 and were flat when compared to our production costs for the three month period ended June 30, 2010.
Exploration Expense: Exploration expense for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 was $58,451. This compares to no exploration expense for the three month period ended June 30, 2010. This increase in exploration expense reflects a higher level of exploration activity during the second quarter of 2011.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses increased $228,468 or 122% to $415,242 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $186,774 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The increase reflects a number of one-time charges including accounting, auditing, and legal expenses to bring the Company current on its SEC filings, and the increase in salaries and expenses associated with the opening of the Austin office in January 2011.
Depletion and Accretion: Depletion, accretion, and depreciation declined $6,581 or 26% to $18,402 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $24,983 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease was due to the lower amount of asset cost basis available to deplete following the impairment adjustment of 2010.
Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $954,434 to $965,303 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $10,869 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Of this amount, $904,340 represents the amortization of the non-cash debt discount associated with the sale and conversion of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and $60,963 represents the actual interest expense due on the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and the bank line of credit.
Income Taxes: There is no provision for income tax recorded for either the three months ended June 30, 2011 or for the three months ended June 30, 2010 due to the expected operating losses of both years. The original provision of an income tax benefit of $331,927 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 has been eliminated in restatement due to applying a net realizable value evaluation. We had available Federal income tax net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of approximately $5.5 million at December 31, 2010. Our NOL generally begins to expire in 2027.
Net Loss: We had a net loss of $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to a net loss of $127,347 for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Of this loss, approximately $316,563 represents a net decrease in operating income and $954,434 represents increases in cash and non-cash financing interest costs. This net loss should be viewed in light of the cash flow from operations discussed below.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2010
Revenues: All of our revenue was derived from the sale of oil and natural gas. Our revenues decreased $100,620 or 38% to $167,679 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $268,299 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease reflects a decline in volume of gas sold to 22,606 MCF in the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 42,438 MCF for the six months ended June 30, 2010 offset by the increase in the average natural gas price received of $7.41 per MCF for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $6.32 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decline in gas production is attributable to the normal productivity decline that occurs with these types of wells over time.
Costs of Production: Our cost of production, including lease operating costs and production taxes increased $33,914 or 65% to $85,700 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $51,786 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. This increase is due to additional operating expenses and other one-time charges associated with on-going well production.
Exploration Expense: Exploration expense for the six month period ended June 30, 2011 was $117,923. This compares to no exploration expense for the same six month period of 2010. This increase in exploration expense reflects a higher level of exploration activity during the first six months of 2011.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses increased $698,996 or 202% to $1,044,198 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $345,202 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase reflects a number of one-time charges including accounting, auditing, and legal expenses to bring the Company current on its SEC filings, the legal cost related to the final settlement with the former officer of the Company, and the increase in salaries and expenses associated with the operations of the Austin office.
Depletion and Accretion: Depletion, accretion, and depreciation declined $19,362 or 39% to $30,604 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $49,966 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease was due to the lower amount of asset cost basis available to deplete following the impairment adjustment of 2010.
Gain on Settlement: On March 24, 2011, we entered into a comprehensive Settlement Agreement with Jon Fullenkamp in which Fullenkamp gave up his claim to several amounts reported by us as owing to him. The elimination of the claims were made to the consolidated financial statements in 2010 and reported in the both the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the 2010 Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q which had not been filed at the time of the settlement.
Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $1.2 million to $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $19,121 for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Of this amount, $1.1 million represents the amortization of the non-cash debt discount associated with the sale and conversion of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and $103,989 represents the actual interest expense due on the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures.
Income Taxes: There is no provision for income tax recorded for either the six months ended June 30, 2011 or for the six months ended June 30, 2010 due to the expected operating losses of both years. The original provision of an income tax benefit of $390,032 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 has been eliminated in restatement due to applying a net realizable value evaluation. We had available Federal income tax net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of approximately $5.5 million at December 31, 2010. Our NOL generally begins to expire in 2025.
Net Income (Loss): We had a net loss of $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Of this amount, there was a one-time gain of $404,624 on the settlement with our former executive officer.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, we had a net loss of $191,271. This net loss should be viewed in light of the cash flow from operations discussed below.
During the six months ended June 30, 2011, as with the six months ended June 30, 2010, we did not generate positive cash flow from normal operations. As a result, we funded our operations through the private sale of equity and debt securities, the issuance of our securities in exchange for services, and loans.

At June 30, 2011, we had a working capital deficit of $1,413 compared to a working capital deficit of $827,454 at June 30, 2010. Current liabilities decreased to $554,779 at June 30, 2011 from $999,770 at June 30, 2010 primarily due to the conversion of short term notes payable and accrued interest due a related party to a 10% Senior Secured Debenture.
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 totaled $.9 million after the cash used in the net loss of $1.7 million was decreased by $750,198 in non-cash charges and increased by $85,267 in net increases in the working capital accounts. This compares to cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010 of $66,533 after the net income for the period of $191,271 was reduced by $348,627 in non- cash charges and offset by $75,247 in changes to the working capital accounts.
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $316,496 of which $308,167 was used for drilling costs related to the new working interest acquired during the period and $8,329 was used in the purchase of furniture and equipment for the Austin office.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $1.7 million. Of this amount, $1.8 million came from the sale of 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures offset by $56,180 in payments on loans.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2010
Revenues: All of our revenue was derived from the sale of oil and natural gas. Our revenues decreased $18,560 or 17% to $90,570 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $109,130 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease reflects the sale of 111 barrels of oil at a weighted average price of $87.75 per barrel. There were no sales of oil in the three months ended September 30, 2010. Before offsets for minority ownership, the decrease also reflects the sale of 16,688 MCF of natural gas at a weighted average price of $4.84 per MCF in the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to 18,256 MCF of natural gas sold in the three months ending September 30, 2010 at an average price of $5.91 per MCF. The decline in physical gas production is attributable to the normal productivity decline that occurs with these types of wells over time.
Costs of Production: Our cost of production, including lease operating costs and production taxes decreased $7,605 or 20% to $31,213 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $38,818 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. This decrease is due to one-time charges associated with on-going well production that are included in our cost of production for the second quarter 2010.
Exploration Expense: Exploration expense for the three month period ended September 30, 2011 was $113,301. This compares to no exploration expense for the same three month period of 2010. This increase in exploration expense reflects a higher level of exploration activity during the third quarter of 2011.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses increased $222,149 or 100% to $445,091 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $222,942 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. For the most part, the increase reflects two additional officers hired in 2011 including the associated payroll taxes and benefits, the fair value of options granted the new officers in the current period, the operations of the Austin office opened in 2011, the services of an investor relations firm, and the fair value of the non-cash director’s compensation earned in the period.
Depletion and Accretion: Depletion, accretion, and depreciation declined $14,817 or 59% to $10,166 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $24,983 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease was due to the lower amount of asset cost basis available to deplete following the impairment adjustment of 2010.
Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $321,628 to $332,604 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 from $10,976 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. For the three months ended September 30, 2011, $297,418 represents the amortization of the non-cash debt discount associated with the sale of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and $35,186 represents the actual interest expense accrued on the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures outstanding.
Income Taxes: There is no provision for income tax recorded for either the three months ended September 30, 2011 or for the three months ended September 30, 2010 due to the expected operating losses of both years. The original provision of an income tax benefit of $76,671 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 has been eliminated in restatement due to applying a net realizable value evaluation. We had available Federal income tax net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of approximately $5.5 million at December 31, 2010. Our NOL generally begins to expire in 2027.
Net Loss: We had a net loss of $820,048 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 compared to a net loss of $175,403 for the three months ended September 30, 2010. This net loss should be viewed in light of the cash flow from operations discussed below.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
Revenues: All of our revenue was derived from the sale of oil and natural gas. Our revenues decreased $123,635 or 33% to $253,794 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $377,429 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Oil revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 reflect the sale of 168 barrels of oil at a weighted average price of $90.31 per barrel. There were no sales of oil in the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Before offsets minority ownership, gas revenues reflect the sale of 50,762 MCF of gas at a weighted average price of $4.70 per MCF for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 compared to the sale of 60,695 MCF of natural gas sold at $6.22 per MCF for the nine month period ended September 30, 2010. The decline in gas production is attributable to the normal productivity decline that occurs with these types of wells over time.
Costs of Production: Our cost of production, including lease operating costs and production taxes increased $21,874 or 24% to $112,478 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $90,604 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. This increase is due to additional operating expenses and other one-time charges associated with on-going well production.
Exploration Expense: Exploration expense for the nine month period ended September 30, 2011 was $175,574. This compares to no exploration expense for the same nine month period of 2010. This increase in exploration expense reflects a higher level of exploration activity during the first nine months of 2011.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses increased $1,152,237 or 202% to $1,544,897 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $568,144 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The increase reflects a number of one-time charges including accounting, auditing, and legal expenses to bring the Company current on its SEC filings, the legal cost related to the final settlement with the former officer of the Company, as well as the two additional officers hired in 2011 including the associated payroll taxes and benefits, the fair value of options granted the new officers in the current period, the operations of the Austin office opened in 2011, the services of an investor relations firm, and the fair value of the non-cash director’s compensation earned in the period.
Depletion and Accretion: Depletion, accretion, and depreciation declined $34,179 or 46% to $40,770 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $74,949 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The decrease was due to the lower amount of asset cost basis available to deplete following the impairment adjustment of 2010.
Gain on Settlement: On March 24, 2011, we entered into a comprehensive Settlement Agreement with Jon Fullenkamp in which Fullenkamp gave up his claim to several amounts reported by us as owing to him. The elimination of the claims were made to the consolidated financial statements in 2010 and reported in both the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K and the 2010 Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q which had not been filed at the time of the settlement.
Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $1.5 million to $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 from $30,097 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Of this amount, $1.4 million represents the amortization of the non-cash debt discount associated with the sale and conversion of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and $139,175 represents the actual interest expense due on the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures.
Income Taxes: There is no provision for income tax recorded for either the nine months ended September 30, 2011 or for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 due to the expected operating losses of both years. The original provision of an income tax benefit of $466,703 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 has been eliminated in restatement due to applying a net realizable value evaluation. We had available Federal income tax net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of approximately $5.5 million at December 31, 2010. Our NOL generally begins to expire in 2025.
Net Income (Loss): We had a net loss of $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This net loss should be viewed in light of the cash flow from operations discussed below, which included a one-time gain of $404,624 on the settlement with our former executive officer.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we had a net loss of $379,684. This net income should be viewed in light of the cash flow from operations discussed below.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, as with the nine months ended September 30, 2010, we did not generate positive cash flow from normal operations. As a result, we funded our operations through the private sale of equity and debt securities, the issuance of our securities in exchange for services, and loans.

At September 30, 2011, we had working capital of $15,263 compared to a working capital deficit of $988,450 at September 30, 2010. Current liabilities decreased to $330,192 at September 30, 2011 from $1,140,286 at September 30, 2010 primarily due to the payoff of the amount due the bank, the amount due a related party, and the conversion of preferred stock to common stock.
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 totaled $1.4 million after the net loss of $2.6 million was decreased by $1.2 million in non-cash charges offset by $113,398 in changes to the working capital accounts. This compares to cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 of $96,733 after the net loss for the period of $379,684 was decreased by $321,034 in non-cash charges and offset by $206,043 in changes to the working capital accounts.
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $425,896 of which $417,567 was used for drilling costs related to the new working interest acquired during the period and $8,329 was used in the purchase of furniture and equipment for the Austin office.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 was $2.1 million. Of this amount, $2.3 million came from the sale of 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures offset by $68,667 to retire the bank loan and the $50,000 payoff of amounts due related parties. This compares to $143,695 in cash was provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 of which $162,000 came from a related party loan and $18,305 was used to pay down the bank loan.
Three Months Ended March 31, 2012 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2011
Revenues: All of our revenue was derived from the sale of oil and natural gas. Our revenues decreased $21,821 or 25% to $63,965 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $85,786 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease reflects a decline in the amount of natural gas sold to 10,386 Mcf at $4.52 per Mcf for the three months ending March 31, 2012 from 11,675 Mcf sold at $6.49 per Mcf in the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decline in physical gas production is attributable to the normal productivity decline that occurs with these types of wells over time. During the three months ended March 31, 2012, we also sold 184 barrels of oil at $92.24 per barrel. There were no sales of oil in the three months ended March 31, 2011.
Lease Operating Expenses: Our cost of production includes a one-time credit of $35,157 received from an Operator that had received the credit from one of its vendors. Had this credit not been recognized in the period, our cost of production would have been approximately $21,002 for the three months ending March 31, 2012 which would have represented a decrease of $20,496 or 49% from $41,499 for the three months ended March 31, 2011.
Production Taxes: Production taxes increased $1,352 or 26% to $6,479 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $5,127 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The change is not considered meaningful and reflects the timing of the calculation and payment of production taxes.
Exploration Expense: Exploration expense increased $23,735 or 32.5% to $96,867 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $73,132 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. This increase reflects the higher tempo of exploration activities as the Company had only just hired a full time exploration officer employee in the three months ended March 31, 2011.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses increased $49,538 or 8.3% to $645,875 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $596,337 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. For the most part, the increase reflects the addition of a new chief financial officer, ongoing investor relations activities, and outside management consulting services which were not part of general and administrative expense in the three months ended March 31, 2011.
General and Administrative Expense – non cash: General and administrative non-cash expenses increased $316,890 to $335,850 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $18,960 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase reflects the non-cash charges related to the issuance of warrants to board members for their service as members of the board, additional warrants to a related party to serve as general counsel of the Company, warrants to a management consultant for services in that capacity, employee stock options to the new Chief Financial Officer, and the amortization of employee stock options as such options vest. Such non-cash compensation totaled $18,960 in the three months ended March 31, 2011 in warrants to the board members for their service as members of the board.
Depletion and Accretion: Depletion, accretion, and depreciation increased $6,607 or 54% to $18,809 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $12,202 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The increase is due to the additional depletion of the operating oil wells in 2012 which the company did not have in the three months ending March 31, 2011.
Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $3.8 million to $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 from $213,112 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2012, $265,460 represents the amortization of the non-cash debt discount associated with the sale of the outstanding 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures from January 1, 2012 up to the point where the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures were converted to common stock on February 29, 2012, $3.7 million represents the recognition of the remaining non-cash debt discount associated with the conversion of all the outstanding 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures to common stock on February 29, 2012, and $56,782, for the most part, represents the actual interest expense accrued on the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures outstanding until their conversion on February 29, 2012.
Income Taxes: There is no provision for income tax recorded for either the three months ended March 31, 2012 or for the three months ended March 31, 2011 due to the expected operating losses of both years. The original provision of an income tax benefit of $58,105 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 has been eliminated in restatement due to applying a net realizable value evaluation. We had available Federal income tax net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of approximately $12,960,120 at December 31, 2011. Our NOL generally begins to expire in 2027.
Net Loss: We had a net loss of $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to a net loss of $363,567 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2012 approximately $4.3 million of this loss was related to the non-cash charges related to the debt discount on the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures which were converted to common stock on February 29, 2012 and to non-cash compensation awards to individuals for board service, employee stock options, and other management and consulting services. This net loss should be viewed in light of the cash flow from operations discussed below.

At March 31, 2012, we had working capital of $611,158 compared to a working capital deficit of $397,099 at March 31, 2011. Current liabilities decreased to $423,312 at March 31, 2012 from $677,905 at March 31, 2011 primarily due to the payoff of the amount due the bank, the amount due a related party, the conversion of unauthorized preferred stock to common stock, and the conversion of accrued interest to common stock.
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 totaled $830,461 after the net loss of $5.0 million was decreased by $4.3 million in non-cash charges and offset by $112,703 in changes to the working capital accounts. This compares to cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011 of $563,610 after the net loss for the period of $816,477 was decreased by $201,248 in non-cash charges and $109,724 in changes to the working capital accounts.
Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $587,795 of which $82,795 was for drilling and related costs for exploration efforts and $505,000 was used to acquire land for drilling. This compares to $205,539 in drilling costs and $8,329 in purchases of furniture and fixtures for the then new Austin, Texas office during the three months ended March 31, 2011.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $1.8 million of which $1.7 million came from the sale of the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures. This compares to $853,400 provided by financing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2011 of which $910,000 came from the sale of the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures, $6,600 was used to pay down the bank line of credit and $50,000 was used to pay off a note due a related party.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2011
Revenues: All of our revenue was derived from the sale of oil and natural gas. Our revenues decreased $13,722 or 16.8% to $68,151 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $81,873 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease primarily reflects a decline in the price and volume of natural gas sold to $3.51 per Mcf for the 10,549 Mcf of gas sold for the three months ending June 30, 2012 from $6.51 per Mcf for the 10,931 Mcf of gas sold in the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decline in physical gas production is attributable to the normal productivity decline that occurs with these types of wells over time. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we also sold 289 barrels of oil at $90.90 per barrel. There were no sales of oil in the three months ended June 30, 2011.
Lease Operating Expenses: Our cost of production increased $27,063 or 89% to $57,565 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $30,502 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in lease operating expenses reflects an increase in the number of operating properties in the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.
Production Taxes: Production taxes decreased $2,901 or 33.8% to $5,671 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $8,572 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The change is not considered meaningful and reflects the timing of the calculation and payment of production taxes.
Exploration Expense: Exploration expense increased $1,753 or 3.0% to $60,204 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $58,451 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The change is not considered meaningful and simply reflects the timing of expenses for exploration activities.
Exploration Expense – non cash: Exploration non-cash expense increased $10,125 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This increase reflects the vesting of exploration-dedicated employee stock options during the three months ended June 30, 2012. There were no stock options outstanding during the three months ending June 30, 2011.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses decreased $71,212 or 17.8% to $327,790 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $399,002 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. For the most part, the decrease reflects the reduction in professional and consulting fees with the consolidation of the Company’s operations in Austin, Texas.
General and Administrative Expense – non cash: General and administrative non-cash expenses increased $241,870 to $258,110 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $16,240 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase reflects the non-cash charges related to the grant of employee stock options and the amortization of previous of stock options as they vest over time and the cost of warrants granted to one affiliate and two non-affiliates of the Company for special consulting assistance in certain undertakings of the Company. Such non-cash compensation totaled $18,960 in the three months ended June 30, 2011 for warrants to the board members for their service as members of the board.
Depletion and Accretion: Depletion, accretion, and depreciation decreased $5,130 or 27.9% to $13,272 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $18,402 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease is due to the reduction in amount of assets subject to depletion as a result of the sale of the Jones County/Atwood properties in May, 2012.
Gain on Sale of Assets: On May 10, 2012, the Company sold its interests in the Jones County Oil Play and the Atwood Secondary Oil Recovery project for $400,000 in cash payable in two even installments in May and July, 2012. The sale resulted in a one-time pre-tax gain of $268,169.
Interest Expense: Interest expense decreased $964,985 to $318 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $965,303 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was due to the conversion of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures to the Company’s common stock on February 29, 2012 which eliminated the source of the interest expense. The $318 in interest expense results from the financing associated with one of the Company’s insurance policies.
Income Taxes: There is no provision for income tax recorded for either the three months ended June 30, 2012 or for the three months ended June 30, 2011 due to the expected operating losses of both years. The original provision of an income tax benefit of $396,735 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 has been eliminated in restatement due to applying a net realizable value evaluation. We had available Federal income tax net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of 12,960,120 at December 31, 2011. Our NOL generally begin to expire in 2027.
Net Loss: We had a net loss of $497,678 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to a net loss of $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2012 should be viewed in light of the cash flow from operations discussed below.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2011
Revenues: All of our revenue was derived from the sale of oil and natural gas. Our revenues decreased $35,541 or 21.2% to $132,118 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $167,659 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease reflects a decline in the price and volume of natural gas sold to $4.14 per Mcf for the 20,892 Mcf of gas sold for the six months ending June 30, 2012 from $6.70 per Mcf for the 22,606 Mcf of gas sold in the six months ended June 30, 2011. The decline in physical gas production is attributable to the normal productivity decline that occurs with these types of wells over time. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we also sold 492 barrels of oil at $92.88 per barrel. There were no sales of oil in the six months ended June 30, 2011.
Lease Operating Expenses: Our cost of production decreased $28,590 or 39.7% to $43,411 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $72,001 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease in lease operating expenses resulted from a large one-time credit from a 2011 sub-contractor billing error in favor of one of our field operators during the three months ended March 31, 2012. Had this credit not been received, our cost of production for the six months ended June 30, 2012 would have been $61,055. This would have been a decrease of $10,946 from $72,001 for the six month period ended June 30, 2011. This decrease is not meaningful and reflects the timing of operator activities on the properties. There was an increase in the number of oil and natural gas properties during the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012, notwithstanding our sale of the Jones County Oil Play and the Atwood Secondary Oil Recovery project in May, 2012.
Production Taxes: Production taxes decreased $1,549 or 11.3% to $12,150 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $13,699 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The change is not considered meaningful and reflects the timing of the calculation and payment of production taxes.
Exploration Expense: Exploration expense increased $29,023 or 24.6% to $146,946 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $117,923 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase reflects the higher overall level of exploration activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2011.
Exploration Expense – non cash: Exploration non-cash expense increased $20,250 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This increase reflects the vesting of exploration-dedicated employee stock options during the six months ended June 30, 2012. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, there were no option grants outstanding.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses decreased $35,333 or 3.5% to $973,665 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $1,008,998 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. For the most part, the decrease reflects the net effect of the addition of a new chief financial officer, ongoing investor relations activities, and outside management consulting services which were not part of general and administrative expense in the six months ended June 30, 2011 offset by lower audit, accounting, and legal fees associated with the extensive restatement and catch up effort to bring the Company current on its SEC filings undertaken as well as the legal settlement with a former officer of the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2011.
General and Administrative Expense – non cash: General and administrative non-cash expenses increased $558,760 to $593,960 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $35,200 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase reflects the non-cash charges related to grants of non-qualified stock options to employees and offices of the Company and the amortization of previous of stock option as they vest over time, the cost of warrants granted to affiliates and non-affiliates is of the Company for special consulting assistance in certain undertakings of the Company, and warrants granted to a related party to serve as general counsel of the Company. Such non-cash compensation totaled $35,200 in the six months ended June 30, 2011 for warrants to the board members for their service as members of the board.
Depletion and Accretion: Depletion, accretion, and depreciation increased $1,477 or 4.8% to $32,081 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $30,604 for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase is not considered meaningful and due to the additional depletion of the operating oil wells in early 2012 which the Company did not have in the six months ending June 30, 2011 which was somewhat offset by the reduction in amount of assets subject to depletion as a result of the sale of the Jones County/Atwood properties in May, 2012.
Gain on Sale of Assets: On May 10, 2012, the Company sold its interests in the Jones County Oil Play and the Atwood Secondary Oil Recovery project for $400,000 in cash payable in two even installments in May and July, 2012. The sale resulted in a one-time gain of $268,169.
Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $2.8 million to $4.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, $265,460 represents the amortization of the non-cash debt discount associated with the sale of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures from January 1, 2012 up to the point where the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures were converted to common stock on February 29, 2012, $3.7 million represents the recognition of the remaining non-cash debt discount associated with the conversion of all the outstanding 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures to common stock on February 29, 2012, and $56,782, for the most part, represents the actual interest expense accrued on the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures outstanding until the conversion of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures on February 29, 2012.
Income Taxes: There is no provision for income tax recorded for either the six months ended June 30, 2012 or for the six months ended June 30, 2011 due to the expected operating losses of both years. The original provision of an income tax benefit of $390,032 for the six months ended June 30, 2011 has been eliminated in restatement due to applying a net realizable value evaluation. We had available NOL carry forwards of 12,960,120 at December 31, 2011. Our NOL generally begins to expire in 2027.
Net Loss: We had a net loss of $5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to a net loss of $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. The net loss was reduced by the gain on the sale of assets of $268,169. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 approximately $4.5 million of this loss was related to the non-cash charges related to the debt discount on the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures which were converted to common stock on February 29, 2012 and to non-cash compensation awards to individuals for board service, employee stock options, and other management and consulting services. This net loss should be viewed in light of the cash flow from operations discussed below.

At June 30, 2012, we had working capital of $374,386 compared to a working capital deficit of $1,413 at June 30, 2011. Current liabilities decreased to $215,872 at June 30, 2012 from $554,779 at June 30, 2011 primarily due to the payoff of the amount due a bank, the amount due a related party, the conversion of unauthorized preferred stock to common stock, and the conversion of accrued interest to common stock.
Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 $1.5 million after the net loss of $5.4 million was decreased by $4.3 million in non-cash charges and offset by $197,857 in changes to the working capital accounts. This compares to cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 of $1.0 million after the net loss for the period of $1.7 million was decreased by $750,198 in non-cash charges and $85,267 in changes to the working capital accounts.
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $875,946 of which $159,494 was for drilling and related costs for exploration efforts, $706,093 was used to acquire land and rights to land for drilling, and $10,359 was used to purchase furniture and fixtures for the Austin, Texas office. This compares to $308,167 in drilling costs and $8,329 in purchases of furniture and fixtures for the then new Austin, Texas office during the six months ended June 30, 2011. $200,000 came from the sale of the Company’s investment in the Jones County/Atwood properties.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $2.2 million of which $1.8 million came from the sale of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and $4,350 came from the exercise of warrants. This compares to $1.7 million provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2011 of which $1.8 million came from the sale of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures while $6,180 was used to pay down a bank line of credit and $50,000 was used to pay off a note due a related party.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2012 compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2011
Revenues: All of our revenue was derived from the sale of oil and natural gas. Our revenues decreased $13,535 or 14.9% to $77,035 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $90,570 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The decrease reflects a decline in sale of natural gas during the three months ending September 30, 2012 from the three months ended September 30, 2011. The decline in gas production is attributable to the normal productivity decline that occurs with these types of wells over time.
Lease Operating Expenses: Our cost of production increased $2,901 or 15.8% to $21,285 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $18,384 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in lease operating expenses reflects an increase in the number of operating properties in the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011.
Production Taxes: Production taxes decreased $9,199 or 71.7% to $3,630 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $12,829 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. This results primarily from the decline in revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011.
Exploration Expense: Exploration expense decreased $50,886 or 45% to $62,415 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $113,301 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The change is not considered meaningful and simply reflects the timing of expenses for exploration activities.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses increased $231,285 or 52% to $676,376 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $445,091 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The G&A burn rate was higher for this this period in 2012 partially due to additional headcount in Austin, a chief financial officer and an accounting manager, and non-recurring costs associated with the transfer of accounting services from California to Texas. This increase reflects the bad debt expense of $200,000 recorded in the third quarter of 2012 associated with the sale of oil and natural gas assets to CO Energy in May 2012, warrants issued for Board service, all net of a negative adjustment for warrants authorized in a prior period of this year.
Depletion and Accretion: Depletion, accretion, and depreciation increased $5,513 or 54% to $15,679 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from $10,166 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase reflects the increase in the amount of producing wells in the during the respective time periods.
Impairment of Assets: During the three months ended September 30, 2012, the Company recorded $162,703 in asset impairment charges for our Uno Mas well which was deemed not commercial and a charge associated with the write-off of other undeveloped land costs in New Mexico. There were no impairment charges for the three months ending September 30, 2011.
Interest Expense: Interest expense was $3,040 for the three months ending September 30, 2012. This represents the 10% preferred return which Navitus receives under the Second Amended Partnership Agreement for capital contributions to Aurora arranged by Navitus. During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company incurred $332,604 in interest expense virtually all of which was associated with the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures which were converted to common stock on February 29, 2012.
Income Taxes: There is no provision for income tax recorded for either the three months ended September 30, 2012 or for the three months ended September 30, 2011 due to the expected operating losses of both years. The original provision of an income tax benefit of $76,671 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 has been eliminated in restatement due to applying a net realizable value evaluation. We had available Federal income tax net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards of 12,960,120 at December 31, 2011. Our NOL generally begins to expire in 2027.
Net Loss: We had a net loss of $644,131 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to a net loss of $820,048 for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2012 included $200,000 in bad debt allowance recognized for the final payment due in July, 2012, on the sale of the Jones County Oil Play and the Atwood Secondary Oil Recovery recorded May 10, 2012. The net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2012 should be viewed in light of the cash flow from operations discussed below.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2011
Revenues: All of our revenue was derived from the sale of oil and natural gas. Our revenues decreased $44,643 or 17.6% to $209,151 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from $253,794 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The decrease reflects a decline in both the price and volume of natural gas sold for the nine months ending September 30, 2012 from the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The decline in physical gas production is attributable to the normal productivity decline that occurs with these types of wells over time.
Lease Operating Expenses: Our cost of production decreased $25,690 or 28% to $64,695 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from $90,385 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The decrease is primarily due to a credit received from a drilling services company in early 2012 for an over-charge paid in 2011.
Production Taxes: Production taxes decreased $6,313 or 28.6% to $15,780 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from $22,093 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The decrease is primarily due to the effect of lower gas volumes and sales prices in 2012 compared to 2011.
Exploration Expense: Exploration expense increased $54,037 or 30.7% to $229,611 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from $175,574 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase reflects the higher overall level of exploration activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 2011.
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses increased $523,530 or 46% to $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. For the most part, the increase reflects the increase in non-recurring accounting service expenses associated with the transfer of the accounting function from Irvine, CA, to Austin, TX during the three month period ending September 30, 2012 and the compensation expense associated with the addition of one officer and one employee compared to no such costs for the same three months ending September 30, 2011. The increase reflects charges in 2012 related to a bad debt expense associated with the sale of oil and natural gas assets in May 2012, grants related to non-qualified stock options to employees and officers of the Company, the amortization of previous of stock option as they vest over time, the cost of warrants granted to affiliates and non-affiliates is of the Company for special consulting assistance in certain undertakings of the Company, and warrants granted to a related party to serve as general counsel of the Company all net of a negative adjustment for warrants authorized in a prior period of this year.
Depletion and Accretion: Depletion, accretion, and depreciation increased $6,990 or 17.1% to $47,760 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from $40,770 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The increase is due to the additional depletion of the operating oil wells in early 2012 which the Company did not have in the nine months ending September 30, 2011 notwithstanding the reduction in amount of assets subject to depletion as a result of the sale of the Jones County/Atwood properties in May, 2012.
Gain on Sale of Assets: On May 10, 2012, the Company sold its interests in the Jones County Oil Play and the Atwood Secondary Oil Recovery project for $400,000 in cash payable in two even installments in May and July, 2012. The sale resulted in a one-time gain of $268,169. The Company has recognized a bad debt allowance of $200,000 against the second installment which was due in July, 2012.
Impairment of Assets: During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, the Company recorded $162,703 in asset impairment charges for our Uno Mas well which was deemed not commercial and a charge associated with the write-off of other undeveloped land costs in New Mexico. There were no impairment charges for the nine months ending September 30, 2011.
Interest Expense: Interest expense increased $2.5 million to $4.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 from $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, $265,460 represents the amortization of the non-cash debt discount associated with the sale of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures from January 1, 2012 up to the point where the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures were converted to common stock on February 29, 2012, $3.7 million represents the recognition of the remaining non-cash debt discount associated with the conversion of all the outstanding 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures to common stock on February 29, 2012, and $57,100, for the most part, represents the actual interest expense accrued on the10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures outstanding until the conversion of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures on February 29, 2012, and $3,040 represents the 10% return paid to Navitus for arranging for additional contributions to Aurora.
Income Taxes: There is no provision for income tax recorded for either the nine months ended September 30, 2012 or for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 due to the expected operating losses of both years. The original provision of an income tax benefit of $466,703 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 has been eliminated in restatement due to applying a net realizable value evaluation. We had available NOL carry forwards of 12,960,120 at December 31, 2011. Our NOL generally begins to expire in 2027.
Net Loss: We had a net loss of $6.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 compared to a net loss of $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This net loss should be viewed in light of the cash flow from operations discussed below.

At September 30, 2012, we had a working capital deficit of $65,636 compared to a working capital surplus of $15,263 at September 30, 2011. Current liabilities decreased to $229,882 at September 30, 2012 from $330,192 at September 30, 2011 primarily due to the pay down of accounts payable offset somewhat by an increase in accrued royalties and the conversion of accrued interest to common stock.
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $1.6 million after the net loss of $6.1 million was decreased by $4.7 million in non-cash charges and offset by $178,487 in changes to the working capital accounts. This compares to cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 of $1.6 million after the net loss for that period of $2.6 million was decreased by $1.2 million in non-cash charges offset by $113,398 in changes to the working capital accounts.
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $936,292 of which $263,650 was for drilling and related costs for exploration efforts, $661,983 was used to acquire land and rights to land for drilling, and $10,359 was used to purchase furniture and fixtures for the Austin, Texas office. This compares to $417,567 in drilling costs and $8,329 in purchases of furniture and fixtures for the then new Austin, Texas office during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. $200,000 came from the sale of the Company’s investment in the Jones County/Atwood properties.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $2.3 million of which $1.8 million came from the sale of the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures, $349,900 came from contributions from Navitus, and $4,874 came from the exercise of warrants. In the meantime, $61,472 in distributions were made to Navitus in accordance with the Second Amended Aurora Partnership Agreement. This compares to $2.2 million provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2011 of which $2.3 million came from the sale of the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures while $68,667 was used to pay down a bank line of credit and $50,000 was used to pay off a note due a related party.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
During the period ended December 31, 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2013-07, "Presentation of Consolidated financial statements (Topic 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting." The ASU requires organization to prepare its consolidated financial statements using the liquidation basis of accounting when liquidation is "imminent." Liquidation is considered imminent when the likelihood is remote that the organization will return from liquidation and either: (a) a plan for liquidation is approved by the person or persons with the authority to make such a plan effective and the likelihood is remote that the execution of the plan will be blocked by other parties; or (b) a plan for liquidation is being imposed by other forces (e.g., involuntary bankruptcy). In cases where a plan for liquidation was specified in the organization's governing documents at inception (e.g., limited-life entities), the organization should apply the liquidation basis of accounting only if the approved plan for liquidation differs from the plan for liquidation that was specified in the organization's governing documents. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have an impact on the Company's (consolidated) financial position and results of operations.
During the period ended December 31, 2012, the FASB has issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2013-04, Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date. ASU 2013-04 provides guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this ASU is fixed at the reporting date, except for obligations addressed within existing guidance in U.S. GAAP. The guidance requires an entity to measure those obligations as the sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2014, and interim periods and annual periods thereafter. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's (consolidated) financial position and results of operations.
In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-08, Intangible – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Testing Goodwill for Impairment. Under the amendments of this ASU, an entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform the first step of the two-step impairment test by calculating the fair value of the reporting unit and comparing the fair value with the carrying amount of the reporting unit, as described in paragraph 350-20-35-4. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the entity is required to perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any, as described in paragraph 350-20-35-9. Under the amendments in this Update, an entity has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test. An entity may resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. This ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), and Presentation of Comprehensive Income. Under the amendments of this ASU, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. In a single continuous statement, the entity is required to present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with the total of comprehensive income in that statement. In the two-statement approach, an entity is required to present components of net income and total net income in the statement of net income. The statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and include the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with a total for comprehensive income. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Summary of Critical Accounting Policies
Consolidation Policy
The Company’s management, in considering accounting policies pertaining to consolidation, has reviewed the relevant authoritative guidance. The Company follows this authoritative, in assessing whether the rights of the non-controlling interests should overcome the presumption of consolidation when a majority voting, or controlling interest in its investee “is a matter of judgment that depends on facts and circumstances.” In applying the circumstances and contractual provisions of the Partnership Agreement, management determines that the non-controlling rights do not, individually or in the aggregate, provide for the non-controlling interest to “effectively participate in significant decisions that would be expected to be made in the ordinary course of business.” The rights of the non-controlling interest are protective in nature. The Company has corrected, pursuant to the Securities Exchange Commission directives, the audited consolidated financial statements for 2010 and 2011, as well as the unaudited quarterly statements for 2011 and 2012, to report the net income or loss and equity attributable to non-controlling interests (NCI), in accordance with ASC 810.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Significant estimates include volumes of oil and natural gas reserves used in calculating depletion of proved oil and natural gas properties, future net revenues and abandonment obligations, impairment of proved and unproved properties, future income taxes and related assets and liabilities, the fair value of various common stock, warrants and option transactions, and contingencies. Oil and natural gas reserve estimates, which are the basis for unit-of-production depletion and the calculation of impairment, have numerous inherent uncertainties. The accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the quality of available data, the 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, reserve estimates are often different from the quantities of oil and natural gas that are ultimately recovered. In addition, reserve estimates are vulnerable to changes in wellhead prices of crude oil and natural gas. Such prices have been volatile in the past and can be expected to be volatile in the future.
These significant estimates are based on current assumptions that may be materially affected by changes to future economic conditions such as the market prices received for sales of volumes of oil and natural gas, interest rates, the fair value of the Company’s common stock and corresponding volatility, and the Company’s ability to generate future taxable income. Future changes to these assumptions may affect these significant estimates materially in the near term.
Oil and Natural Gas Properties
We account for investments in oil and natural gas properties using the successful efforts method of accounting. Under this method of accounting, only successful exploration drilling costs that directly result in the discovery of proved reserves are capitalized. Unsuccessful exploration drilling costs that do not result in an asset with future economic benefit are expensed. All development costs are capitalized because the purpose of development activities is considered to be building a producing system of wells, and related equipment facilities, rather than searching for oil and natural gas. Items charged to expense generally include geological and geophysical costs. Capitalized costs for producing wells and associated land and other assets are depleted using a Units of Production methodology based on the proved, developed and calculated by well basis by an independent petroleum engineer in accordance with SEC rules.
The net capitalized costs of proved oil and natural gas properties are subject to an impairment test which compares the net book value of assets, based on historical cost, to the discounted future cash flow of remaining oil and natural gas reserves based on current economic and operating conditions. Impairment of an individual producing oil and natural gas field is first determined by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows associated with the proved property to the carrying value of the underlying property. If the cost of the underlying property is in excess of the undiscounted future net cash flows the carrying cost of the impaired property is compared to the estimated fair value and the difference is recorded as an impairment loss. Management’s estimate of fair value takes into account many factors such as the present value discount rate, pricing, and when appropriate, possible and probable reserves when activities justified by economic conditions and actual or planned drilling or other development. For the year 2010, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board investigated and found that the Company made an error in its accounting for impairment charges by improperly using discounted cash flows rather than the undiscounted future net cash flows, resulting in an impairment error of $114,778, which has been corrected and which impact is restated in these consolidated financial statements.
Under the successful efforts method of accounting, the depletion rate is the current period production as a percentage of the total proved producing reserves. The depletion rate is applied to the net book value of property costs to calculate the depletion expense. Proved reserves materially impact depletion expense. If the proved reserves decline, then the depletion rate (the rate at which we record depletion expense) increases, reducing net income.
We depreciate other property and equipment using the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives ranging from five to 10 years.
Long-lived Assets and Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for intangible assets in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Accounting Standards Code (“ASC”) standard. Intangible assets that have defined lives are subject to amortization over the useful life of the assets. Intangible assets held having no contractual factors or other factors limiting the useful life of the asset are not subject to amortization but are reviewed at least annually for impairment or when indicators suggest that impairment may be needed. Intangible assets are subject to impairment review at least annually or when there is an indication that an asset has been impaired.
For unproved property costs, management reviews these investments for impairment on a property-by-property basis if a triggering event should occur that may suggest that impairment may be required.
The Company reviews its long-lived assets and proved oil and natural gas properties for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable in accordance with the applicable ASC standard. Proved oil and natural gas assets are evaluated for impairment at least annually. If the carrying amount of the asset, including any intangible assets associated with that asset, exceeds its estimated future undiscounted net cash flows, the Company will recognize an impairment loss equal to the difference between its carrying amount and its estimated fair value. The fair value used to calculate the impairment for producing oil and natural gas field that produces from a common reservoir is first determined by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows associated with total proved properties to the carrying value of the underlying evaluated property. If the cost of the underlying evaluated property is in excess of the undiscounted future net cash flows, the future net cash flows discounted at 10%, which the Company believes approximates fair value, to determine the amount of impairment.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company adopted the ASC standard related to stock compensation to account for its warrants and options issued to key partners, directors and officers. The fair value of common warrants granted is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model by using the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The calculation also takes into account the common stock fair market value at the grant date, the exercise price, the expected life of the common stock option or warrant, the dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate.
The Company from time to time may issue warrants and restricted stock to acquire goods or services from third parties. Restricted stock, options or warrants issued are recorded on the basis of their fair value, which is measured as of the date issued. In accordance with the standard, the options or warrants are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model on the basis of the market price of the underlying equity instrument on the “valuation date,” which for warrants related to contracts that have substantial disincentives to non-performance, is the date of the contract, and for all other contracts is the vesting date. Expense related to the options and warrants is recognized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the period over which services are to be received or the vesting period.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilutive effects of common stock equivalents such as options, warrants and convertible securities. Due to the Company incurring a net loss from continuing operations, basic and diluted loss per share are the same for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 as all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents become anti-dilutive in nature.
Income Taxes
Under the applicable ASC standard, deferred income taxes are recognized at each year end for the future tax consequences of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. We routinely assess the reliability of our deferred tax assets. We consider future taxable income in making such assessments. If we conclude that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized under accounting standards, it is reduced by a valuation allowance. However, despite our attempt to make an accurate estimate, the ultimate utilization of our deferred tax assets is highly dependent upon our actual production and the realization of taxable income in future periods. The Company has corrected and restated for the year 2010 and 2011, the previously reported tax benefit provision by applying net realizable valuation principles in accordance with FASB 109, FIN 48, and ASC 740-10.
Contingencies
Liabilities and other contingencies are recognized upon determination of an exposure, which when analyzed indicates that it is both probable that an asset has been impaired or that a liability has been incurred and that the amount of such loss is reasonably estimable.
Volatility of Oil and Natural Gas Prices
Our revenues, future rate of growth, results of operations, financial condition and ability to borrow funds or obtain additional capital, as well as the carrying value of our properties, are substantially dependent upon prevailing prices of oil and natural gas.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that were 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 deemed by our management to be material to investors.

Item 8. Consolidated financial statements and Supplementary Data
The information required by this Item 8 is incorporated by reference to the Index to Consolidated Financial Statements beginning at page F-1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
See 8K filing on August 9, 2012, item 4.01 Changes to registrant’s certifying accountant and item 9.01 Exhibits.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) (the Company's principal executive officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2012. Based upon that evaluation, our management concluded that our control over financial reporting and related disclosure controls and procedures reflect a material weakness due to the size and nature of our Company.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. Based on this assessment, management identified the following material weaknesses that have caused management to conclude that, as of December 31, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures, and our internal control over financial reporting, were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:
1.
|
We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
|
2.
|
To address this material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the consolidated financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, we believe that the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

During February 2011, we engaged a corporate accountant as CFO (Robert Miranda of Miranda and Associates) who had significant SEC financial reporting and accounting experience. This individual prepared the accounting update for the years ending December 31, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010, including preparation of the delinquent quarterly Forms 10Q. This individual also assisted in the preparation of the 2011 quarterly reports for the periods ended March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011, and September 30, 2011, respectively as well as the Form 10K for that period. Mr. Miranda has served as audit committee chairman since April of 2009. The auditor during these reporting periods was Wilson Morgan.

|
During prior reporting years of 2010 and 2011, the Company, due to its small staff size lacked some of the expertise needed for proper SEC reporting, which led to the need for restatement for years 2010 and 2011. The Company has sought to address these deficiencies with the hiring of a full-time Controller with oil and gas and SEC experience effective June 1, 2013, and plans to seek additional public reporting assistance on and as needed basis.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only our management’s report in this Annual Report.
Changes in Internal Controls
Management has taken steps to remediate the material weakness over our control over financial reporting and related disclosure controls and procedures by implementing the following controls:

While the Company is still small, we now have a full-time employee serving as the Chief Executive Officer. Moreover, the Board of Directors continues to be proactively involved in the management of the business. Thus, risks associated with adequate segregation of duties have been addressed. Also, the skills and capabilities of the team, as well as ongoing advice and expertise provided by outside advisors gives assurance that our financial reporting is accurate and timely. We have disclosure processes in place to identify transactions and events to be reported, as applicable. Additional internal control enhancements are always taken into consideration and implemented as needed.

During February 2011, we engaged a corporate accountant, to serve as CFO (Robert Miranda of Miranda and Associates) who had significant SEC financial reporting and accounting experience. This individual assisted with the accounting update for the years ending December 31, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010, including preparation of the delinquent quarterly Forms 10Q. This individual also assisted in the preparation of the 2011 quarterly reports for the periods ended March 31, 2011, June 30, 2011, and September 30, 2011, respectively as well as this Form 10K. Mr. Miranda also was responsible for the selection of Wilson Morgan as auditor.

In January of 2012 the Company also hired a full-time CFO (Mr. Mark Biggers), separating that job from the Audit Committee Chair (Robert Miranda). Mr. Biggers, however, left the Company before year end 2012 and in turn leaving the Company without an experienced full-time CFO. Effective January 1, 2013, the Company installed a new accounting system designed for the oil and gas industry, which includes more stringent controls and safeguards of internal data and provide audit trails for transactional research and review.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters
We have no outstanding equity compensation plans under which our securities are authorized for issuance.
Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners
Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC, and generally includes voting power and/or investment power with respect to the securities held. Shares of common stock subject to options or warrants currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of December 31, 2012 and 2011, are deemed outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding such options or warrants for purposes of computing the number of shares and percentage beneficially owned by such person, but are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage beneficially owned by any other person. Except as indicated in the footnotes to these tables, and subject to applicable community property laws, the persons or entities named have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of our common stock shown as beneficially owned by them.
The following table sets forth, as of December 31, 2012, certain information with respect to the Company’s equity securities owned or record or beneficially by (i) each officer and director of the Company; (ii) each person who owns beneficially more than 5% of each class of the Company’s outstanding equity securities; and (iii) all directors and executive officer as a group:

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence
Related Party Transactions
During the year ended December 31, 2012, we incurred a total of $153,355 of accounting services with Miranda & Associates, a Professional Accountancy Corporation (“Miranda”). As of December 31, 2012, Miranda was owed $825 for these professional services. One of our directors, Robert J. Miranda, is the managing director of Miranda.
During the year ended December 31, 2012 we incurred a total of $198,009 in legal fees with The McCall Firm. David McCall, our general counsel and a director, is a partner in The McCall Firm. The fees are attributable to litigation involving the Company’s oil and natural gas operations in Texas. As of December 31, 2012, the Company owed The McCall Firm approximately $16,679 for these professional services.
Director Independence
Our Board has determined that each of our directors qualifies as an independent director under applicable rules promulgated by the SEC and the NASDAQ Stock Market listing standards, although our common stock is not listed on NASDAQ, and has concluded that none of these directors has a material relationship with the Company that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
Item 14. Principal Accounting Fees and Services
Audit Fees
We did not file when due our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007, (restated), 2008, 2009, and 2010, or Quarterly Reports on Forms 10-Q for the respective interim 2008 (restated), 2009 and 2010 periods until March and May, 2011, respectively. Accordingly, the aggregate fees billed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements and review of the consolidated financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for that fiscal year were higher than would otherwise be expected for a normal year. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 respectively, we paid $88,257 and $135,465, respectively, in fees to our principal accountants.
Tax Fees
For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, our principal accountants did not render any services for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning work.
All Other Fees
None.
All fees described above for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, were approved by the entire board of directors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Victory Energy Corporation
Austin, Texas
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Victory Energy Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (restated), and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (restated), and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (restated), in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has experienced recurring losses since its inception and has an accumulated deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Victory Energy Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:
Victory Energy Corporation (Victory) is an independent, growth oriented oil and natural gas company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and production of oil and natural gas properties, through its partnership with Aurora Energy Partners. The Company is engaged in the exploration, acquisition, development, and production of domestic oil and natural gas properties. Current operations are primarily located onshore in Texas and New Mexico. The Company was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 7, 1982. The Company is authorized to issue 47,500,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock, and has 27,563,619 shares of common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2012. On January 12, 2012 the Company implemented a 50:1 reverse stock split. All information is this form 10K reflects the recent stock split. Our corporate headquarters are located at 3355 Bee Caves Rd. Ste. 608, Austin, TX 78746.
A summary of significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements is set forth below.
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation, Including Restatement:
Victory is the managing partner of Aurora Energy Partners, a Texas General Partnership (“Aurora”), and holds a 50% partnership interest in Aurora. Aurora is consolidated with Victory for financial statement purposes, as the terms of the partnership agreement gives Victory effective control of the partnership. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Victory and the accounts of Aurora. The Company’s management, in considering accounting policies pertaining to consolidation, has reviewed the relevant accounting literature. The Company follows that literature, in assessing whether the rights of the non-controlling interests should overcome the presumption of consolidation when a majority voting, or controlling interest in its investee “is a matter of judgment that depends on facts and circumstances.” In applying the circumstances and contractual provisions of the partnership agreement, management determined that the non-controlling rights do not, individually or in the aggregate, provide for the non-controlling interest to “effectively participate in significant decisions that would be expected to be made in the ordinary course of business.” The rights of the non-controlling interest are protective in nature. All intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The 2011 and 2010 consolidated financial statements have been restated to present the non-controlling interest (NCI) in Aurora owned by others in the consolidated financial statements.
Non-controlling Interests:
The Navitus Energy Group is a partner with Victory in Aurora. The two partners each own a 50% interest in Aurora. Victory is the Managing Partner and has contractual authority to manage the business affairs of Aurora. The Navitus Energy Group currently has four partners. They are James Capital Consulting, LLC ("JCC"), James Capital Energy, LLC ("JCE"), Rodinia Partners, LLC and Navitus Partners, LLC. Although this partnership has been in place since January 2008, its members and other elements have changed since that time.
The non-controlling interest in Aurora is held by Navitus Energy Group, a Texas general partnership. As of December 31, 2012, $2,409,497 was recorded as the equity of the non-controlling interest in our consolidated balance sheet representing the third-party investment in Aurora, with losses attributable to non-controlling interests of $359,864 for the year ended December 31, 2012. As of December 31, 2011, $1,740,933 was recorded as the equity of the non-controlling interest in our consolidated balance sheet representing the third-party investment in Aurora, with losses attributable to the non-controlling interests of $399,511 for the year ended December 31, 2011.
Restatements and Reclassifications:
Certain prior year and quarterly amounts have been restated; to correctly present the non-controlling interest representing the third-party investment in Aurora in our consolidated financial statements; certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year to correct an oil and gas impairment loss error; to correct the reporting of a separation agreement with a former CEO (John Fullenkamp) in March 2011; and to correct the income tax provisions for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation, which did not materially impact the restated financial statements.
Background and Restatement Adjustments
In August of 2012, the staff of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) made inquiry to the Company regarding consolidated financial statements disclosure concerning the presentation of non-controlling interest (related to Aurora Energy Partners) on its consolidated financial statements.
Although this consolidated presentation was disclosed in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements, as was the 50% non-controlling interest of Navitus in Aurora, the amount of non-controlling interest of Navitus in Aurora was not presented on the face of the consolidated financial statements.
After discussions with the SEC the Company determined that the amount of non-controlling interest of Navitus should also be separately stated on the face of the Company’s consolidated financial statements, in addition to being discussed in footnote disclosure. Total consolidated assets, liabilities, and stockholders equity did not change; however the non-controlling interest in Aurora is separately identified in the stockholders equity section of the consolidated financial statements. The Company net loss per share improved by the effect of the non-controlling interest in the loss of Aurora.
Resulting Restatement Adjustments:
As a result of the issues identified in the Audit Committee Review and the confirmation letter from the SEC, the consolidated financial statements were restated to present the shares of equity and shares of income and loss attributable to the Non-Controlling Interests (“NCI”) in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Beginning with cumulative equity affected as of December 31, 2010, the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been restated, as have the six unaudited quarterly consolidated interim reports for the calendar years 2011 and 2012. The Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 2012 and 2011 (restated), reported in this filing, present the NCI.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the 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 period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used primarily when accounting for depreciation, depletion, and amortization (“DD&A”) expense, property costs, estimated future net cash flows from proved reserves, cost to abandon oil and natural gas properties, taxes, accruals of capitalized costs, operating costs and production revenue, capitalized general and administrative costs and interest, insurance recoveries, effectiveness and estimated fair value of derivative positions, the purchase price allocation on properties acquired, various common stock, warrants and option transactions, and contingencies.
Oil and Natural Gas Properties:
We follow the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and natural gas properties. Under this method, all costs associated with property acquisitions, successful exploratory wells, all development wells, including dry hole development wells, and asset retirement obligation assets are capitalized. Additionally, interest is capitalized while wells are being drilled and the underlying property is in development. Costs of exploratory wells are capitalized pending determination of whether each well has resulted in the discovery of proved reserves. Oil and natural gas mineral leasehold costs are capitalized as incurred. Items charged to expense generally include geological and geophysical costs, costs of unsuccessful exploratory wells, and oil and natural gas production costs. Capitalized costs of proved properties including associated salvage are depleted on a well-by-well or field-by-field (common reservoir) basis using the units-of-production method based upon proved producing oil and natural gas reserves. The depletion rate is the current period production as a percentage of the total proved producing reserves. The depletion rate is applied to the net book value of property costs to calculate the depletion expense. Proved reserves materially impact depletion expense. If the proved reserves decline, then the depletion rate (the rate at which we record depletion expense) increases, reducing net income. Dispositions of oil and natural gas properties are accounted for as adjustments to capitalized costs with gain or loss recognized upon sale. A gain (loss) is recognized to the extent the sales price exceeds or is less than original cost or the carrying value, net of impairment. Oil and natural gas properties are also reviewed for impairment at the end of each reporting period. Unproved property costs are excluded from depleatable costs until the related properties are developed. See impairment discussed in “Long-lived assets and intangible assets” below.
We depreciate other property and equipment using the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives ranging from five to 10 years.
The Company recorded impairment expense of $344,353 and $102,579 for 2012 and 2011 respectively, upon determining that the oil and natural gas properties were impaired.
Long-lived Assets and Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for intangible assets in accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”. Intangible assets that have defined lives are subject to amortization over the useful life of the assets. Intangible assets held having no contractual factors or other factors limiting the useful life of the asset are not subject to amortization but are reviewed at least annually for impairment or when indicators suggest that impairment may be needed. Intangible assets are subject to impairment review at least annually or when there is an indication that an asset has been impaired.
For unproved property costs, management reviews these investments for impairment on a property-by-property basis if a triggering event should occur that may suggest that impairment may be required.
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount of the asset, including any intangible assets associated with that asset, exceeds its estimated future undiscounted net cash flows, the Company will recognize an impairment loss equal to the difference between its carrying amount and its estimated fair value. The fair value used to calculate the impairment for producing oil and natural gas field that produces from a common reservoir is first determined by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows associated with total proved properties to the carrying value of the underlying evaluated property. If the cost of the underlying evaluated property is in excess of the undiscounted future net cash flows, the future net cash flows are discounted at 10%, which the Company believes approximates fair value, to determine the amount of impairment.
Asset Retirement Obligations:
U.S. GAAP requires us to record our estimate of the fair value of liabilities related to future asset retirement obligations in the period the obligation is incurred. Asset retirement obligations relate to the removal of facilities and tangible equipment at the end of an oil and natural gas property’s useful life. The application of this rule requires the use of management’s estimates with respect to future abandonment costs, inflation, market risk premiums, useful life and cost of capital. U.S. GAAP requires that our estimate of our asset retirement obligations does not give consideration to the value the related assets could have to other parties.

Other Property and Equipment:
Our office equipment in Austin, Texas is being depreciated on the straight-line method over their estimated useful life of 5 to 7 years.
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
The Company considers all liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at December 31, 20l2 and December 31, 2011, respectively.
Accounts Receivable:
Our accounts receivable are primarily from purchasers of natural gas and oil and exploration and production companies which own an interest in properties we operate.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:
The Company recognizes an allowance for doubtful accounts to ensure trade receivables are not overstated due to un-collectability. Allowance for doubtful accounts are maintained for all customers based on a variety of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due, macroeconomic conditions, significant one-time events and historical experience. An additional allowance for individual accounts is recorded when they become aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, such as in the case of bankruptcy filings or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position. If circumstances related to customers change, estimates of the recoverability of receivables would be further adjusted. As of December 31, 2012, the Company has deemed $200,000 from the sale of oil and gas properties associated with the Jones County prospect, to be uncollectible and thus, has recorded this amount as an allowance for doubtful accounts.
Asset Impairment:
At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the carrying value of the Company's financial instruments such as prepaid expenses and payables approximated their fair values based on the short-term maturities of these instruments. The carrying value of other long-term liabilities approximated their fair values because the underlying interest rates approximate market rates at the balance sheet dates. Management believes that due to the Company's current credit worthiness, the fair value of long-term debt could be less than the book value; however, due to current market conditions and available information, the fair value of such debt is not readily determinable. Financial Accounting Standard Board ("FASB") ASC Topic 820 established a hierarchical disclosure framework associated with the level of pricing observability utilized in measuring fair value. This framework defined three levels of inputs to the fair value measurement process and requires that each fair value measurement be assigned to a level corresponding to the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The three broad levels of inputs defined by
FASB ASC Topic 820 hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date;
Leve1 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, a Leve1 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
Leve1 3 - unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. These unobservable inputs reflect the entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (which might include the reporting entity's own data).
The initial measurement of asset retirement obligations at fair value is calculated using discounted cash flows techniques and based on internal estimates of future retirement costs associated with proved oil and gas properties. Inputs used in the calculation of asset retirement obligations include plugging costs and reserve lives. A reconciliation of Victory’s asset retirement obligations is presented in Note 1.
During 2012, proved oil and gas properties with a carrying value of $395,463 were written down, based upon engineering estimates, to their fair value of $51,110, resulting in impairment charges of $344,353. During 2011, proved oil and gas properties with a carrying value of $557,034 were written down, based upon Level 3 inputs, to their fair value of $454,455, resulting in impairment charges of $102,579. Significant Level 3 assumptions associated with the calculation of discounted cash flows used in the impairment analysis include Victory’s estimate of future crude oil and natural gas prices, production costs, development expenditures, anticipated production of proved reserves, appropriate risk-adjusted discount rates and other relevant data; primarily derived from a third party independent reserve report.
Revenue Recognition:
The Company uses the sales method of accounting for oil and natural gas revenues. Under this method, revenues are recognized based on actual volumes of gas and oil sold to purchasers. The volumes sold may differ from the volumes to which the Company is entitled based on our interests in the properties. Differences between volumes sold and entitled volumes create oil and natural gas imbalances which are generally reflected as adjustments to reported proved oil and natural gas reserves and future cash flows in their supplemental oil and natural gas disclosures. If their excess takes of natural gas or oil exceed their estimated remaining proved reserves for a property, a natural gas or oil imbalance liability is recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Concentrations:
There is a ready market for the sale of crude oil and natural gas. During 2012 and 2011, our gas field and our producing wells sold their respective gas and oil production to one purchaser for each field or well. However, because alternate purchasers of oil and natural gas are readily available at similar prices, we believe that the loss of any of our purchasers would not have a material adverse effect on our financial results.
Earnings per Share:
Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding at December 31, 2012, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding was 23,292,609. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilutive effects of common stock equivalents such as options, warrants and convertible securities. Given the historical and projected future losses of the Company, all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents are considered anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had 27,563,619 shares of common stock shares outstanding and 2,982,218 of common stock equivalents, comprised of 137,932 unconverted Preferred B shares, 2,624,286 warrants outstanding, and 220,000 stock options outstanding, which were anti-dilutive and not included in the earnings per share calculation. As of December 31, 2011, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding was 5,281,307. As of December 31, 2011, the Company had 7,647,494 shares of common stock outstanding, and 783,145 of common stock equivalents comprised of 603,145 warrants outstanding and 180,000 stock options outstanding, which were anti-dilutive and not included in the earnings per share calculation.
Income Taxes:
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740 “Income Taxes” which requires an asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting of income taxes. Deferred income taxes reflect the impact of temporary differences between the amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and such amounts as measured by tax laws and regulations. Deferred tax assets include tax loss and credit carry forwards and are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Stock Based Compensation:
The Company applies ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation” to account for its issuance of options and warrants to key partners, directors and officers. The standard requires all share-based payments, including employee stock options, warrants and restricted stock, be measured at the fair value of the award and expensed over the requisite service period (generally the vesting period). The fair value of options and warrants granted to key partners, directors and officers is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model by using the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price. The calculation also takes into account the common stock fair market value at the grant date, the exercise price, the expected life of the common stock option or warrant, the dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate.
The Company from time to time may issue stock options, warrants and restricted stock to acquire goods or services from third parties. Restricted stock, options or warrants issued to third parties are recorded on the basis of their fair value, which is measured as of the date issued. The options or warrants are valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model on the basis of the market price of the underlying equity instrument on the “valuation date,” which for options and warrants related to contracts that have substantial disincentives to non-performance, is the date of the contract, and for all other contracts is the vesting date. Expense related to the options and warrants is recognized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the period over which services are to be received or the vesting period.
The Company recognized stock-based directors fee and service incentive fee compensation expense from warrants granted to directors for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 of $40,500 and $312,000, respectively.
The Company recognized stock-based officer compensation expense from stock options granted to officers of the company for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 of $147,093 and $152,700 respectively.
Going Concern:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As presented in the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred a net loss of $6.7 million and $3.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. $4.0 million and $1.8 million, during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, was for non-cash expenses including the amortization of the debt discount and warrants associated with the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures, the unamortized portion of the debt discount recognized on the conversion of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible to common stock on February 29, 2012, depletion, depreciation, impairment, warrants given for services, and stock based compensation.
The cash proceeds from the sale of the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and new contributions to the Aurora partnership by The Navitus Energy Group (“Navitus”) have allowed the Company to continue operations and invest in new oil and natural gas properties. Management anticipates that operating losses will continue in the near term until new wells are drilled, successfully completed and incremental production increases revenue. As of December 31, 2012 on a year to date basis the Company has invested $1,012,899 in the acquisition of land or the drilling of wells.
The Company remains in active discussions with Navitus and others related to longer term financing required for our capital expenditures planned for 2013. Without additional outside investment from the sale of equity securities and/or debt financing, our capital expenditures and overhead expenses must be reduced to a level commensurate with available cash flows.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not contain adjustments, including adjustments to recorded assets and liabilities, which might be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.
Note 2 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-08, “Intangible – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), Testing Goodwill for Impairment”. The ASU provides an option for an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform the first step of the two-step impairment test by calculating the fair value of the reporting unit and comparing the fair value with the carrying amount of the reporting unit, as described in paragraph 350-20-35-4. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the entity is required to perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. Under the ASU, an entity has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test. An entity may resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. This ASU is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, and the adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), and Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. The ASU provides an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. In a single continuous statement, the entity is required to present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with the total of comprehensive income in that statement. In the two-statement approach, an entity is required to present components of net income and total net income in the statement of net income. The statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and include the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with a total for comprehensive income. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, and the adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 4 – Senior Secured Convertible Debentures
All share references have been adjusted to reflect a 50:1 reverse stock split by the Company on January 12, 2012.
During the years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012 the Company raised $4,935,000 from accredited investors via 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures. Specifically the Company raised $3,120,000 in 2011 and $1,815,000 on February 29, 2012. These debentures were converted to 19,505,523 shares of the Company’s common stock in accordance with the terms of the debenture.
Terms of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debenture are as follows:
§
|
The maturity date of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures is September 30, 2013, but may be extended at the sole discretion of the Company to December 31, 2013.
|
§
|
In connection with the Debenture offering, the Company also issued five (5) year warrants to purchase an aggregate of 104,400 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share, subject to customary adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like.
|
§
|
The Company has the right to force conversion of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures under certain terms and conditions.
|
§
|
The 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures are secured under the terms of a Security Agreement by a security interest in all of the Company’s personal property. The relative fair value of the warrants and beneficial conversion features of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures were determined at the time of issuance using the methodology prescribed by current accounting guidance.
|
The Company converted the debentures in two phases as follows:
1.
|
During the year ended December 31, 2011 $1,112,500 of the outstanding 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures were converted to 4,445,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in accordance with their terms.
|
2.
|
In February 2012 the remaining $4,649,775 of the outstanding 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures was converted to 19,505,523 shares of the Company’s common stock in accordance with their terms.
|
Accounting for the Debentures:
·
|
The Company determined the initial fair value of the 10% beneficial conversion feature was approximately $1.7 million.
|
·
|
The initial fair value of the warrants of $61,649 and the beneficial conversion feature of $1,753,351 were recorded by the Company as a discount of $1,815,000, for the year ended December 31, 2012, and which the Company is amortizing to interest expense over the life of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures.
|
·
|
The beneficial conversion feature of $3,120,000 was recorded by the Company as a discount of $3,120,000 for the year ended December 31, 2011, which the Company amortized to interest expense over the life of the 10% Senior Convertible Debentures.

Note 5 – Liability for Unauthorized Preferred Stock Issued
During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company authorized the issuance of 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, convertible at the shareholder’s option to common stock at the rate of 100 shares of common stock for every share of preferred stock. During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company issued 715,517 shares of preferred stock for cash of $246,950. The Company subsequently issued additional preferred stock and had several preferred shareholders convert their shares into common stock during the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007.
The Company’s legal counsel determined that the preferred shares had not been duly authorized by the State of Nevada. Since the Company had issued and received consideration for the preferred stock, notwithstanding that the stock was not legally authorized, the Company has presented the preferred stock as a liability in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company has offered to settle the debt with the remaining holders of the unauthorized preferred stock by honoring the terms of conversion of two shares of preferred stock into 100 shares of common stock. The Company intends to cancel the preferred stock once all remaining preferred stockholders have converted.
There were 68,966 and 238,966 shares of unconverted preferred stock outstanding at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The Company needs approximately 138,000 common shares in order to settle the outstanding debt as stated below.
The remaining liability for the unconverted preferred stock is based on the original cash tendered and consisted of the following as of:

Note 6 – Income Taxes
There was no provision for (benefit of) income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 (restated), after the application of ASC 740 “Income Taxes”.
The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, imposes substantial restrictions on the utilization of net operating losses in the event of an “ownership change” of a corporation. Accordingly, a company’s ability to use net operating losses may be limited as prescribed under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 (“IRC Section 382”). Events which may cause limitations in the amount of the net operating losses that the company may use in any one year include, but are not limited to, a cumulative ownership change of more than 50% over a three-year period. There have been transactions that have changed the Company’s ownership structure since inception that may have resulted in one or more ownership changes as defined by the IRC section 382. The Company’s stock issuance arising from convertible debt in 2012 has resulted in a limitation of net operating loss carry forward for the Company of $13,807,335 over a 20 year period.
At December 31, 2012, the Company had available Federal operating loss carry forwards to reduce future taxable income. The Federal net operating loss carry forwards available were approximately $13,807,335 as of December 31, 2012. The Federal net operating loss carry forward begins to expire in 2027. Capital loss carryovers may only be used to offset capital gains.
Given the Company’s history of net operating losses, management has determined that it is more-likely-than-not the Company will not be able to realize the tax benefit of the net operating loss carry forwards. ASC 740 requires that a valuation allowance be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Accordingly, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Upon the attainment of taxable income by the Company, management will assess the likelihood of realizing the deferred tax benefit associated with the use of the net operating loss carry forwards and will recognize a deferred tax asset at that time.
Significant components of the Company’s deferred income tax assets are as follows:

ASC 740 provides guidance which addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements. Under the current accounting guidelines, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011 the Company does not have a liability for unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company has elected to include interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expenses. To date, no penalties or interest has been accrued.
Tax years 2010 forward are open and subject to examination by the Federal taxing authority. The Company is not currently under examination and it has not been notified of a pending examination.
Note 7 – Stockholders’ Equity
Common stock
The Company estimates the fair value of employee stock options and warrants granted using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. Key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of warrants and stock options include the exercise price of the award, the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, the expected warrant or option term, the risk free interest rate at the date of grant, the expected volatility and the expected annual dividend yield on the Company’s common stock.
During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company granted 2,044,591 warrants for board services and consulting services. The Company has valued the warrants for services using the Black Scholes Option Pricing Model, at $496,979. The warrants issued for board services were 120,000 valued at $73,800, warrants issued for third party services were 1,904,291 with a fair value at $423,179, and warrants exercised for cash were 20,602 valued at $5,075. 3,150 warrants were cancelled during 2012.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company granted 114,000 warrants for board services and 152,400 warrants for consulting services valued with the Black Scholes pricing model at $312,000.

All future changes in the fair value of these warrants will be recognized currently in earnings until such time as the warrants are exercised or expire. These common stock purchase warrants do not trade in an active securities market, and as such, we estimate the fair value of these warrants using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model using the following assumptions:

Expected volatility is based primarily on historical volatility. Historical volatility was computed using daily pricing observations for recent periods that correspond to the remaining life of the warrants. We believe this method produces an estimate that is representative of our expectations of future volatility over the expected term of these warrants. We currently have no reason to believe future volatility over the expected remaining life of these warrants is likely to differ materially from historical volatility. The expected life is based on the remaining term of the warrants. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury securities.
At December 31, 2012 and 2011 the aggregate intrinsic value of the warrants outstanding and exercisable was $43,515 and $417,060, respectively. The intrinsic value of a warrant is the amount by which the market value of the underlying warrant exercise price exceeds the market price of the stock at December 31 of each year.

The intrinsic value of a stock option is the amount by which the market value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of the option at December 31, 2012. If the exercise price exceeds the market value, there is no intrinsic value.
|
The fair value of the stock option grants are amortized over the respective vesting period using the straight-line method and assuming no forfeitures and cancelations. The Company has no historical experience to estimate forfeitures and cancellations.
Compensation expense related to stock options included in Exploration Expense and General and Administrative Expense in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, was $191,719, and $108,000, respectively. The estimated unrecognized compensation cost from unvested options as of December 31, 2012 was approximately $64,156, which is expected to be recognized over a period of 1.2 years.
Stock options are granted at the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Options granted to officers and other employees vest immediately or over 24 months as provided in the option at the date of grant.
The fair value of each option granted in 2012 and 2011 was estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The following assumptions were used to compute the weighted average fair value of options granted during the periods presented.

Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies
Leases
Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 was $23,570 and $17,600, respectively. Future annual minimum payments under non-cancellable operating leases are $30,000 and $12,000 for the years ending December 31, 2013 and 2014, respectively.
Litigation
Cause No. 08-04-07047-CV; Oz Gas Corporation v. Remuda Operating Company, et al. v. Victory Energy Corporation.; In the 112th District Court of Crockett County, Texas.
Plaintiff Oz Gas Corporation sued Victory Energy Corporation and other parties for bad faith trespass, among other claims, regarding the drilling of two wells on lands that Oz Gas Corporation claims title to. Victory Energy Corporation has a 50% interest in one of the named wells involved in this lawsuit (that being well 155-2 on the Adams Baggett Ranch in Crockett County, Texas). The lawsuit was originally filed against other parties in April 2008, and Victory intervened in the case on November 18, 2009 to protect its interest in the 155-2 well.
The case was tried in February 2012. The Court found in favor of Oz and rendered verdict against Victory and the other defendants for the sum of $137,000, which was accrued at December 31, 2012. Victory Energy Corporation has appealed this decision to the 8th Court of Appeals in El Paso, Texas, and the case has been fully briefed and submitted. We believe that the trial verdict will be reversed on appeal and that Victory Energy Corporation’s title to the 155-2 will be affirmed.
Cause No. CV-47,230; James Capital Energy, LLC and Victory Energy Corporation v. Jim Dial, et al.; In the 142nd District Court of Midland County, Texas.
This lawsuit was filed on January 19, 2010 by James Capital Energy, LLC and Victory Energy Corporation against numerous parties for fraud, fraudulent inducement, negligent misrepresentation, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, trespass, conversion and a few other related causes of action. This lawsuit stems from an investment made by Victory for the purchase of six wells on the Adams Baggett Ranch.
On December 9, 2010, Victory was granted an interlocutory Default Judgment against Defendants Jim Dial, 1st Texas Natural Gas Company, Inc., Universal Energy Resources, Inc., Grifco International, Inc., and Precision Drilling & Exploration, Inc. The total judgment amounted to $17.2 million. No amounts have been recorded for this matter as of December 31, 2012.
Recently Victory has added additional parties to this lawsuit. Discovery is ongoing in this case and no trial date has been set at this time.
Victory believes that it will be victorious against all the remaining Defendants in this case.
On October 20, 2011 Defendant Remuda filed a Motion to Consolidate and a Counterclaim against Victory. Remuda is seeking to consolidate this case with two other cases in which Remuda is the named Defendant. An objection to this motion was filed and the cases have not been consolidated. Additionally, we do not believe that the counterclaim made by Remuda has any legal merit.
Cause No. 10-09-07213; Perry Howell, et al. v. Charles Gary Garlitz, et al.; In the 112th District Court of Crockett County, Texas.
The above referenced lawsuit was filed on September 6, 2010. This lawsuit alleges that Cambrian Management, Ltd. and Victory Energy Corporation trespassed on lands owned by the Plaintiffs in the drilling of the Adams-Baggett 115-8 well in Crockett County, Texas.
Discovery is ongoing in this case and the case is set for trial in July 2014. Victory Energy Corporation believes that the claims have no merit and that it will prevail at trial.
Cause No. D-1-GN-13-00044; Aurora Energy Partners and Victory Energy Corporation v. Crooked Oaks; In the 261st District Court of Travis County, Texas.
The Company has yet to collect an installment balance of $200,000 for the sale of its Jones County, Texas oil and gas interests in May of 2012. The Company believes it will ultimately recover this receivable balance, but has provided for it as an allowance for doubtful accounts for the entire $200,000 balance, and has not included it in the net accounts receivable balance of the Company’s 2012 consolidated financial statements.

Oil and natural gas reserves
Proved reserves are estimated quantities of oil and natural gas which geological and engineering data demonstrate with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions. Proved developed reserves are proved reserves that can reasonably be expected to be recovered through existing wells with existing equipment and operating methods.
Proved oil and natural gas reserve quantities at December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the related discounted future net cash flows are based on estimates prepared by independent petroleum engineers. The reserves as of December 31, 2012 were derived from reserve estimates prepared by the independent reserve engineer. Such estimates have been prepared in accordance with guidelines established by the Securities and Exchange Commission. In 2009 the SEC issued guidance requiring oil and natural gas companies to calculate the value of proved reserves using prices that were calculated as the average price of the first day of the twelve months in the year. This guidance differed from the previous standard of valuing prices according to the end of year prices. The guidance does not require that prior year information be revised for the new method. As a result, this change in methods of pricing should be taken into account while reviewing the comparable information for 2012 and 2011 within this disclosure.

Using the SEC adjusted guidelines in place for 2012, the gas and oil prices for this analysis were set at the average price received on the “first-day-of-the-month” for 2012, for appropriate differentials. The “benchmark” prices are $94.71 per barrel and $2.76 per MMBTU. The average quarterly product prices for natural gas revenue for 2011 were $5.73/MCF. The average quarterly product price for oil revenue for 2011 ranged from $87.30 to $95.30 per bbl (barrel).
Future income taxes are based on year-end statutory rates, adjusted for tax basis of oil and natural gas properties and availability of applicable tax assets, such as net operating losses. A discount factor of 10% was used to reflect the timing of future net cash flows.
The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows is not intended to represent the replacement cost or fair market value of the Company’s oil and natural gas properties. An estimate of fair value may also take into account, among other things, the recovery of reserves not presently classified as proved, anticipated future changes in prices and costs, and may require a discount factor more representative of the time value of money and the risks inherent in reserve estimates.
Changes in standardized measure
Included within standardized measure are reserves purchased in place. The purchase of reserves in place includes undeveloped reserves which were acquired at minimal value that have been estimated by independent reserve engineers to be recoverable through existing wells utilizing equipment and operating methods available to the Company and that are expected to be developed in the near term based on an approved plan of development contingent on available capital.

Victory Energy Corporation and Subsidiary
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited and Restated)
Note 1 – Financial Statement Presentation
Basis of Presentation, Including Restatement
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2011, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, have been prepared by management pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial reporting. These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary; to correctly present the non-controlling interest representing the third-party investment in Aurora in our consolidated financial statements, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation to an oil and gas impairment loss error; to correct the reporting of a separation agreement with a former CEO (John Fullenkamp) in March 2011; and to correct the income tax provisions for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of Victory Energy Corporation and subsidiary (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Company") as of and for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011 or for any other interim period during such year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC on May 16, 2011.
The Consolidated Balance Sheet has been restated to present the Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total Equity (Deficit) attributable to the non-controlling interests at March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The originally reported amounts for December 31, 2010 were $31,740,090, ($32,137,592), and ($260,782), respectively. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests and other adjustments of ($9,611,210) for Additional Paid-in-Capital and $7,368,005 for Accumulated Deficit, resulting in a total equity (deficit) attributable to non-controlling interests of $2,191,359, the Company’s Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total equity (deficit) is $22,128,880, ($24,769,587), and ($2,503,987), respectively, as of December 31, 2010. As of the period ended March 31, 2011, the originally reported amounts for additional paid-in-capital, accumulated deficit and total equity (deficit) were $32,359,395, ($32,954,069) and ($457,954), respectively. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests of ($9,243,451), $7,762,811, and ($1,480,640), respectively, the resulting restated balances for the Company are $23,115,944, ($25,191,258) and ($1,938,594), respectively.
The Consolidated Statement of Operations has been restated to present the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests for the three months ended at March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, respectively. The originally reported amounts for the Company were ($816,477) and $350,450, respectively. After restatement for the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests and other adjustments of $452,910 and ($427,384), respectively, the Company’s Net Income (Loss) has been restated as ($363,567) and ($76,934), respectively.
The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flow reflects no restated amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010, as there were no capital contributions or distributions from non-controlling interest during these periods.
Resulting Restatement Adjustments
As a result of the issues identified in the Audit Committee Review and the confirmation letter from the SEC, the consolidated financial statements were restated to present the shares of equity and shares of income and loss attributable to the Non-Controlling Interests in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Beginning with cumulative equity affected as of December 31, 2010, the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been restated, as have the six unaudited quarterly consolidated interim reports for the calendar years 2011 and 2012. The Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 2012, reported in this filing, present the NCI. Adjustments have also been made pursuant to findings by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board for 2010 regarding an error in impairment charges and the timing of reporting a gain from settlement with a former officer. Adjustments have also been made for the 2011 and 2010 interim consolidated statements for corrections to corporate tax provisions.
Organization and nature of operations
Victory Energy Corporation (Pink Sheets symbol VYEY), formerly known as Victory Capital Holdings Corporation (the “Company”) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 7, 1982, under the name All Things, Inc. On March 21, 1985 the Corporation’s name was changed to New Environmental Technologies Corporation and on April 28, 2003 to Victory Capital Holdings Corporation. The name was changed finally to Victory Energy Corporation on May 3, 2006.
The business of the Company is to acquire, develop, produce and exploit oil and natural gas properties. The Company’s major oil and natural gas properties are located in Texas. The Company’s executive offices are located in Austin, Texas and its operations offices are located in Austin, Texas.
The Company’s initial authorized capital consisted of 100,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common voting stock and, as of the date of this filing, has authorized capital of 47,500,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock.
Going Concern
As presented in the consolidated unaudited and restated consolidated financial statements, we had a net loss of $363,567 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. For the most part, this loss is due to the one-time legal, audit, and accountings charges for the preparation and filing of the 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 audited consolidated financial statements with the SEC, the legal costs incurred in the final settlement with the former officer of the Company, as well as the non-cash charges associated with the sale of the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures. Losses are expected to continue in the near term. Current liabilities exceeded current assets by $397,099 and the accumulated deficit is $25,191,258 at March 31, 2011. The Company is currently in default on one of its debt obligations and the Company has no future borrowings or funding sources available under existing financing arrangements. Management anticipates that significant additional capital expenditures will be necessary to develop the Company’s oil and natural gas properties before significant positive operating cash flows will be achieved.
Management plans to alleviate these conditions by pursuing business partnering arrangements for the acquisition and development of its properties as well as debt and equity funding through private placements. Without outside investment from the sale of equity securities, debt financing or partnering with other oil and natural gas companies, operating activities and overhead expenses will be reduced to a pace that available operating cash flows will support.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not contain adjustments, including adjustments to recorded assets and liabilities, which might be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

Victory Energy Corporation and Subsidiary
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited and Restated)
Note 1 – Financial Statement Presentation
Basis of Presentation, including restatement
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2011, for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, have been prepared by management pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial reporting. These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary; to correctly present the non-controlling interest representing the third-party investment in Aurora in our consolidated financial statements, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation to an oil and gas impairment loss error; to correct the reporting of a separation agreement with a former CEO (John Fullenkamp) in March 2011; and to correct the income tax provisions for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of Victory Energy Corporation and subsidiary (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Company") as of and for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011 or for any other interim period during such year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC on May 16, 2011.
The Consolidated Balance Sheet has been restated to present the Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total Equity (Deficit) attributable to the non-controlling interests at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The originally reported amounts for December 31, 2010 were $31,740,090, ($32,137,592), and ($260,782), respectively. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests and other adjustments of ($9,611,210) for Additional Paid-in-Capital and $7,368,005 for Accumulated Deficit, resulting in a total equity(deficit) attributable to non-controlling interests of ($2,243,205), the Company’s Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total equity (deficit) is $22,128,880, ($24,769,587), and ($2,503,987), respectively, as of December 31, 2010. As of the period ended June 30, 2011, the originally reported amounts for additional paid-in-capital, $33,891,976, accumulated deficit ($34,036,740) and total equity (deficit) were $237,544. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests of ($8,977,054), $7,531,455, and ($1,445,599), respectively, the resulted balances for the Company are $24,914,922, ($26,505,285) and ($1,208,055), respectively.
The Consolidated Statement of Operations has been restated to present the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests for the three months ended at June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010, respectively. The originally reported amounts for the Company were ($1,082,672) and ($143,602), respectively. After restatement for the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests and other adjustments of ($289,460) and$16,255, respectively, the Company’s Net Income (Loss) has been restated as ($1,372,132) and $(127,347), respectively.
The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flow reflects no restated amounts for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010, as there were no capital contributions or distributions from non-controlling interest during these periods.
Resulting Restatement Adjustments
As a result of the issues identified in the Audit Committee Review and the confirmation letter from the SEC, the consolidated financial statements were restated to present the shares of equity and shares of income and loss attributable to the Non-Controlling Interests in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Beginning with cumulative equity affected as of December 31, 2010, the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been restated, as have the six unaudited quarterly consolidated interim reports for the calendar years 2011 and 2012. The Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 2012, reported in this filing, present the NCI. Adjustments have also been made pursuant to findings by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board for 2010 regarding an error in impairment charges and the timing of reporting a gain from settlement with a former officer. Adjustments have also been made for the 2011 and 2010 interim statements for corrections to corporate tax provisions.
Organization and nature of operations
Victory Energy Corporation (Pink Sheets symbol VYEY), formerly known as Victory Capital Holdings Corporation (the “Company”) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 7, 1982, under the name All Things, Inc. On March 21, 1985 the Corporation’s name was changed to New Environmental Technologies Corporation and on April 28, 2003 to Victory Capital Holdings Corporation. The name was changed finally to Victory Energy Corporation on May 3, 2006.
The business of the Company is to acquire, develop, produce and exploit oil and natural gas properties. The Company’s major oil and natural gas properties are located in Texas. The Company’s executive offices are located in Austin, Texas and its operations offices are located in Austin, Texas.
The Company’s initial authorized capital consisted of 100,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common voting stock and, as of the date of this filing, has authorized capital of 490,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock.
Going Concern
As presented in the unaudited and restated consolidated financial statements, we had a net loss of $(1,735,679) for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Almost half of the loss results from non-cash accounting charges related to the sale and conversion of the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures have allowed the Company to continue operations and invest in new oil and natural gas properties. The Company also incurred significant accounting, consulting, audit and legal expenses in six month period ended June 30, 2011, associated with bringing the Company current on its Security and Exchange Commission filings. Losses are expected to continue in the near term and, as of June 30, 2011, the Company has a deficit in its working capital of $1,413 and an accumulated deficit is $26,505,285. Management anticipates that significant additional capital expenditures will be necessary to develop the Company’s oil and natural gas properties before significant positive operating cash flows will be achieved.
Management plans to alleviate these conditions by pursuing business partnering arrangements for the acquisition and development of its properties as well as debt and equity funding through private placements. Without outside investment from the sale of equity securities, debt financing or partnering with other oil and natural gas companies, operating activities and overhead expenses will be reduced to a pace that available operating cash flows will support.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not contain adjustments, including adjustments to recorded assets and liabilities, which might be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

Victory Energy Corporation and Subsidiary
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited and Restated)
Note 1 – Financial Statement Presentation
Basis of Presentation, including restatement
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2011, for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, have been prepared by management pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial reporting. These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary; to correctly present the non-controlling interest representing the third-party investment in Aurora in our consolidated financial statements, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation to an oil and gas impairment loss error; to correct the reporting of a separation agreement with a former CEO (John Fullenkamp) in March 2011; and to correct the income tax provisions for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of Victory Energy Corporation and subsidiary (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Company") as of and for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Operating results for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011 or for any other interim period during such year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 filed with the SEC on May 16, 2011.
The Consolidated Balance Sheet has been restated to present the Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total Equity (Deficit) attributable to the non-controlling interests at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. As of the period ended September 30, 2011, the originally reported amounts for additional paid-in-capital, accumulated deficit and total equity (deficit) were $34,414,327, ($34,801,827) and ($5,192), respectively. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests and other adjustments of ($8,788,241), $7,425,627, and ($1,362,614), respectively, the resulting restated balances for the Company are $25,626,086, $(27,376,200) and $(1,367,806), respectively.
The originally reported amounts for December 31, 2010 were $31,740,090, ($32,137,592), and ($260,782), respectively. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests of ($9,611,210) for Additional Paid-in-Capital and $7,368,005 for Accumulated Deficit, resulting in a total equity(deficit) attributable to non-controlling interests of ($2,243,205), the Company’s Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total equity(deficit) is $22,128,880, ($24,769,587), and ($2,503,987), respectively, as of December 31, 2010. The Consolidated Statement of Operations has been restated to present the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests for the three months ended at September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, respectively. The originally reported amounts for the Company were ($765,134) and ($188,589), respectively. After restatement for the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests and other adjustments of ($54,914) and $13,186, respectively, the Company’s Net Income (Loss) has been restated as ($820,048) and ($175,403), respectively.
The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flow reflects no restated amounts for the three months ended September 30, 2011 and September 30, 2010, as there were no capital contributions or distributions from non-controlling interest during these periods.
Resulting Restatement Adjustments
As a result of the issues identified in the Audit Committee Review and the confirmation letter from the SEC, the consolidated financial statements were restated to present the shares of equity and shares of income and loss attributable to the Non-Controlling Interests in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Beginning with cumulative equity affected as of December 31, 2010, the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been restated, as have the six unaudited quarterly consolidated interim reports for the calendar years 2011 and 2012. The Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 2012, reported in this filing, present the NCI. Adjustments have also been made pursuant to findings by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board for 2010 regarding an error in impairment charges and the timing of reporting a gain from settlement with a former officer. Adjustments have also been made for the 2011 and 2010 interim consolidated statements for corrections to corporate tax provisions.
Organization and nature of operations
Victory Energy Corporation (OTCQB symbol VYEY), formerly known as Victory Capital Holdings Corporation (the “Company”) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 7, 1982, under the name All Things, Inc. On March 21, 1985 the Corporation’s name was changed to New Environmental Technologies Corporation and on April 28, 2003 to Victory Capital Holdings Corporation. The name was changed finally to Victory Energy Corporation on May 3, 2006.
The business of the Company is to acquire, develop, produce and exploit oil and natural gas properties. The Company’s major oil and natural gas properties are located in Texas. The Company’s executive offices are located in Austin, Texas.
The Company’s initial authorized capital consisted of 100,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value common voting stock and, as of the date of this filing, has authorized capital of 47,500,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock.
Going Concern
As presented in the unaudited and restated consolidated financial statements, we had a net loss of $2,555,705 for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The cash proceeds from the sale of 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures have allowed the Company to continue operations and invest in new oil and natural gas properties. The Company also incurred significant accounting, consulting, audit and legal expenses in nine month period ended September 30, 2011, associated with bringing the Company current on its Security and Exchange Commission filings. Losses are expected to continue in the near term and, as of September 30, 2011, the Company has working capital of $15,263 and an accumulated deficit is $27,376,200. Management anticipates that significant additional capital expenditures will be necessary to develop the Company’s oil and natural gas properties before significant positive operating cash flows will be achieved.
Management plans to alleviate these conditions by pursuing business partnering arrangements for the acquisition and development of its properties as well as debt and equity funding through private placements. Without outside investment from the sale of equity securities, debt financing or partnering with other oil and natural gas companies, operating activities and overhead expenses will be reduced to a pace that available operating cash flows will support.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not contain adjustments, including adjustments to recorded assets and liabilities, which might be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

Victory Energy Corporation and Subsidiary
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited and Restated)
Note 1 – Financial Statement Presentation
Basis of Presentation, including Restatement
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2012, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, have been prepared by management pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim consolidated financial reporting. These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary; to correctly present the non-controlling interest representing the third-party investment in Aurora in our consolidated financial statements, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation to an oil and gas impairment loss error; to correct the reporting of a separation agreement with a former CEO (John Fullenkamp) in March 2011; and to correct the income tax provisions for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of Victory Energy Corporation and subsidiary (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Company") as of and for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012 or for any other interim period during such year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the SEC on March 30, 2012.
The Consolidated Balance Sheet has been restated to present the Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total Equity (Deficit) attributable to the non-controlling interests at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The originally reported amounts for December 31, 2011 were $35,126,462, ($36,091,289), and ($582,519), respectively. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests and other adjustments of ($8,499,240) for Additional Paid-in-Capital and $7,615,700 for Accumulated Deficit, resulting in a total equity(deficit) attributable to non-controlling interests of $1,740,933, the Company’s Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total equity(deficit) is $26,627,222, ($28,475,589), and ($1,466,059), respectively, as of December 31, 2011. As of the period ended March 31, 2012, the originally reported amounts for additional paid-in-capital, accumulated deficit and total equity (deficit) were $42,783,080, ($41,101,072) and $2,083,942, respectively. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests and other adjustments of ($8,499,240), $6,916,671, and ($1,582,569), respectively, the resulting restated balances for the Company are $34,283,840, ($34,184,401) and $501,373, respectively.
The Consolidated Statement of Operations has been restated to present the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests for the three months ended at March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011, respectively. The originally reported amounts for the Company were ($5,009,783) and ($816,477), respectively. After restatement for the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests of $49,734 and $452,910, respectively, the Company’s Net Income (Loss) has been restated as ($4,960,049) and ($363,577), respectively.
The Consolidate Statement of Cash Flow reflects no restated amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011, as there were no capital contributions or distributions from non-controlling interest during these periods.
Resulting Restatement Adjustments
As a result of the issues identified in the Audit Committee Review and the confirmation letter from the SEC, the consolidated financial statements were restated to present the shares of equity and shares of income and loss attributable to the Non-Controlling Interests in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Beginning with cumulative equity affected as of December 31, 2010, the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been restated, as have the six unaudited quarterly interim reports for the calendar years 2011 and 2012. The Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 2012, reported in this filing, present the NCI. Adjustments have also been made pursuant to findings by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board for 2010 regarding an error in impairment charges and the timing of reporting a gain from settlement with a former officer. Adjustments have also been made for the 2011 and 2010 interim consolidated statements for corrections to corporate tax provisions.
Organization and nature of operations
Victory Energy Corporation (OTCQB symbol VYEY) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 7, 1982. Prior to May 3, 2006 the Company operated as Victory Capital Holdings Corporation among other corporate names. The Company is authorized to issue 47,500,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock.
On January 12, 2012 the Company implemented a 1:50 reverse stock split. All information in this Form 10-Q reflects this reverse stock split.
The Company is engaged in the exploration, acquisition, development and exploitation of domestic oil and natural gas properties. Current operations are primarily located onshore in Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma. We are headquartered in Austin, Texas.
Victory may invest in oil and natural gas projects directly, or through its partnership with Aurora Energy Partners, a Texas General Partnership (“Aurora”). Currently all oil and natural gas assets are held through the Aurora partnership. Victory is the managing partner of Aurora. On December 6, 2012, Victory increased its ownership of Aurora from 15% to 50% on the signing of the Second Amended Partnership Agreement with the Navitus Energy Group. Our future capital and exploration expenditures will focus primarily on oil or liquid-rich gas projects. The Company will develop its investment opportunities through both internal capabilities and strategic industry relationships.
Going Concern
As reported in the unaudited and restated consolidated financial statements, we had a net loss of $5,009,783, $4,960,049, restated for a net loss attributable to the NCI of $49,734, for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Of this amount, approximately $4,273,216 (none of this was attributable to the NCI) was for non-cash expenses including the amortization of the debt discount and warrants associated with the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures, the unamortized portion of the debt discount recognized on the conversion of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures to common stock on February 29, 2012, warrants given for services, and stock based compensation.
The cash proceeds from the sale of 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures have allowed the Company to continue operations and invest in new oil and natural gas properties. Management anticipates that operating losses will continue in the near term.
At March 31, 2012, the Company had $611,158 in working capital and was in active discussions with The Navitus Energy Group related to longer term financing required for our capital expenditures planned for 2012 and 2013. We are also discussing capital requirements and funding with other potential investors. Without additional outside investment from the sale of equity securities or debt financing our capital expenditures and overhead expenses must be reduced to a level commensurate with available cash flows.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not contain adjustments, including adjustments to recorded assets and liabilities, which might be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

Victory Energy Corporation and Subsidiary
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited and Restated)
Note 1 – Financial Statement Presentation
Basis of Presentation, including restatement
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2012, for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, have been prepared by management pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial reporting. These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary; to correctly present the non-controlling interest representing the third-party investment in Aurora in our consolidated financial statements, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation to an oil and gas impairment loss error; to correct the reporting of a separation agreement with a former CEO (John Fullenkamp) in March 2011; and to correct the income tax provisions for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, to present fairly the consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of Victory Energy Corporation and subsidiary (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Company," or “we”) as of and for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").
Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012 or for any other interim period during such year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the SEC on March 30, 2012.
The Consolidated Balance Sheet has been restated to present the Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total Equity (Deficit) attributable to the non-controlling interests at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The originally reported amounts for December 31, 2011 were $35,126,462, ($36,091,289), and ($582,519), respectively. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests and other adjustments of ($8,499,240) for Additional Paid-in-Capital and $7,615,700 for Accumulated Deficit, resulting in a total equity(deficit) attributable to non-controlling interests of $1,740,933, the Company’s Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total equity(deficit) is $26,627,222, ($28,475,589), and ($1,466,059), respectively, as of December 31, 2011. As of the period ended June 30, 2012, the originally reported amounts for additional paid-in-capital, accumulated deficit and total equity (deficit) were $43,078,310, ($41,497,806) and $1,982,674, respectively. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests of ($8,499,240), $6,815,728, and ($1,683,512), respectively, the resulting restated balances for the Company are $34,579,070, ($34,682,078) and $299,162, respectively.
The Consolidated Statement of Operations has been restated to present the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests for the three months ended at June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, respectively. The originally reported amounts for the Company were ($396,735) and ($1,082,672), respectively. After restatement for the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests and other adjustments of ($100,943) and ($289,460), respectively, the Company’s Net Income (Loss) has been restated as ($497,678) and ($1,372,132), respectively.
The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flow reflects no restated amounts for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, as there were no capital contributions or distributions from non-controlling interest during these periods.
Resulting Restatement Adjustments
As a result of the issues identified in the Audit Committee Review and the confirmation letter from the SEC, the consolidated financial statements were restated to present the shares of equity and shares of income and loss attributable to the Non-Controlling Interests in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Beginning with cumulative equity affected as of December 31, 2010, the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been restated, as have the six unaudited quarterly interim reports for the calendar years 2011 and 2012. The Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 2012, reported in this filing, present the NCI. Adjustments have also been made pursuant to findings by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board for 2010 regarding an error in impairment charges and the timing of reporting a gain from settlement with a former officer. Adjustments have also been made for the 2011 and 2010 interim statements for corrections to corporate tax provisions.
Organization and nature of operations
Victory Energy Corporation (OTCQB symbol VYEY) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 7, 1982. Prior to May 3, 2006, the Company operated as Victory Capital Holdings Corporation among other corporate names. The Company is authorized to issue 47,500,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock.
On January 12, 2012 the Company implemented a 1:50 reverse stock split. All information in this Form 10-Q reflects this reverse stock split.
The Company is engaged in the exploration, acquisition, development and exploitation of domestic oil and natural gas properties. Current operations are primarily located onshore in Texas and New Mexico. We are headquartered in Austin, Texas.
The Company may invest in oil and natural gas projects directly, or through its 50% partnership with Aurora Energy Partners, a Texas general partnership (“Aurora”). Currently all of the Company’s oil and natural gas assets are held through the Aurora. The Company is the managing partner of Aurora. Our future capital and exploration expenditures will focus primarily on oil or liquid-rich gas projects. The Company will develop its investment opportunities through both internal capabilities and strategic industry relationships.
Going Concern
As reported in the consolidated financial statements, we had a net loss of $5,406,517 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, restated to $5,355,310. Of this amount $4,541,451 was for non-cash expenses including the amortization of the debt discount and warrants associated with the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures, the unamortized portion of the debt discount recognized on the conversion of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures to common stock on February 29, 2012, warrants given for services, and stock based compensation.
The cash proceeds from the sale of 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures have allowed the Company to continue operations and invest in new oil and natural gas properties. Management anticipates that operating losses will continue in the near term until new wells are drilled, successfully completed and incremental production increases revenue. As of June 30, 2012 on a year-to-date basis the Company has invested approximately $865,587 in the acquisition of land or the drilling of wells.
At June 30, 2012, the Company had $374,386 in working capital and was in active discussions with The Navitus Energy Group and others related to longer term financing required for our capital expenditures planned for the remaining part of 2012 and 2013. Without additional outside investment from the sale of equity securities and/or debt financing our capital expenditures and overhead expenses must be reduced to a level commensurate with available cash flows.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not contain adjustments, including adjustments to assets and liabilities, which might be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited and Restated)
Note 1 – Financial Statement Presentation
Basis of Presentation, including restatement
The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2011, which has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2012, for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, have been prepared by management pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial reporting. These interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary; to correctly present the non-controlling interest representing the third-party investment in Aurora in our consolidated financial statements, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation to an oil and gas impairment loss error; to correct the reporting of a separation agreement with a former CEO (John Fullenkamp) in March 2011; and to correct the income tax provisions for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, to present fairly the consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of Victory Energy Corporation and Aurora Energy Partners (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Company," or “we”) as of and for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").
Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2012 or for any other interim period during such year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the SEC on March 30, 2012.
The Consolidated Balance Sheet has been restated to present the Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total Equity (Deficit) attributable to the non-controlling interests at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The originally reported amounts for December 31, 2011 were $35,126,462, ($36,091,289), and ($582,519), respectively. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests and other adjustments of ($8,499,240) for Additional Paid-in-Capital and $7,615,700 for Accumulated Deficit, resulting in a total equity (deficit) attributable to non-controlling interests of $1,740,933, the Company’s Additional Paid-in-Capital, Accumulated Deficit and Total equity(deficit) is $26,627,222, ($28,475,589), and ($1,466,059), respectively, as of December 31, 2011. As of the period ended September 30, 2012, the originally reported amounts for additional paid-in-capital, accumulated deficit and total equity (deficit) were $43,399,217, ($42,365,901) and $1,435,488, respectively. After restatement for the amounts attributable to non-controlling interests of ($8,787,699), $7,039,694, and $1,856,605, respectively, the resulting restated balances for the Company are $34,611,548, ($35,326,207) and ($312,487), respectively.
The Consolidated Statement of Operations has been restated to present the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests for the three months ended at September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, respectively. The originally reported amounts for the Company were ($868,093) and ($765,134), respectively. After restatement for the Net Income (Loss) attributable to the non-controlling interests and other adjustments of $223,962 and ($54,914), respectively, the Company’s Net Income (Loss) has been restated as ($644,131) and ($820,048), respectively.
The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flow reflects no restated amounts for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and September 30, 2011, as there were no capital contributions or distributions from non-controlling interest during these periods.
Resulting Restatement Adjustments
As a result of the issues identified in the Audit Committee Review and the confirmation letter from the SEC, the consolidated financial statements were restated to present the shares of equity and shares of income and loss attributable to the Non-Controlling Interests in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Beginning with cumulative equity affected as of December 31, 2010, the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been restated, as have the six unaudited quarterly interim reports for the calendar years 2011 and 2012. The Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 2012, reported in this filing, present the NCI. Adjustments have also been made pursuant to findings by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board for 2010 regarding an error in impairment charges and the timing of reporting a gain from settlement with a former officer. Adjustments have also been made for the 2011 and 2010 interim statements for corrections to corporate tax provisions.
Organization and nature of operations
Victory Energy Corporation (OTCQB symbol “VYEY”) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 7, 1982. Prior to May 3, 2006, the Company operated as Victory Capital Holdings Corporation among other corporate names. The Company is authorized to issue 47,500,000 shares of $0.001 par value common stock.
On January 12, 2012 the Company implemented a 1:50 reverse stock split. All information in this Form 10-Q reflects this reverse stock split.
The Company is engaged in the exploration, acquisition, development and production of domestic oil and natural gas properties. Current operations are primarily located onshore in Texas and New Mexico. We are headquartered in Austin, Texas.
The Company may invest in oil and natural gas projects directly, or through its 50% partnership in Aurora Energy Partners, a Texas general partnership (“Aurora”, or “AEP”). Currently all of the Company’s oil and natural gas assets are held through Aurora. The Company is the managing partner of AEP. Our future capital and exploration expenditures will focus primarily on oil or liquid-rich gas projects. The Company will develop its investment opportunities through both internal capabilities and strategic industry relationships.
Going Concern
As reported in the consolidated financial statements, we had a net loss of $6,101,859 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Of this amount, $4,704,828 was for non-cash expenses including the amortization of the debt discount and warrants associated with the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures, the unamortized portion of the debt discount recognized on the conversion of the 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures to common stock on February 29, 2012, depletion, depreciation, impairment, warrants given for services, and stock based compensation.
The cash proceeds from the sale of the Company’s 10% Senior Secured Convertible Debentures and new contributions to the Aurora partnership by The Navitus Energy Group (“Navitus”) have allowed the Company to continue operations and invest in new oil and natural gas properties. Management anticipates that operating losses will continue in the near term until new wells are drilled, successfully completed and incremental production increases revenue. As of September 30, 2012 on a year-to-date basis the Company has invested $925,933 in the acquisition of land or the drilling of wells.
At September 30, 2012, the Company had a working capital deficit of $65,636 and was in active discussions with Navitus and others related to longer term financing required for our capital expenditures planned for the remaining part of 2012 and 2013. Without additional outside investment from the sale of equity securities and/or debt financing, our capital expenditures and overhead expenses must be reduced to a level commensurate with available cash flows.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared as if the Company will continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not contain adjustments, including adjustments to assets and liabilities, which might be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.
