NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
In the opinion of management the accompanying unaudited financial statements
contain all adjustments, all of which were of a normal recurring nature,
necessary to summarize fairly the Registrant's financial position and results
of operations. The results of operations for the three months ended March
31, 2000 may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ending December 31, 2000. These statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Registrant's Form 10-KSB for its fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Mining and oil and gas properties - The Company uses the successful efforts
method of accounting for its mining and oil and gas activities. Costs
incurred are deferred until exploration and completion results are evaluated.
At such time, costs of activities with economically recoverable reserves
are capitalized as proven properties, and costs of unsuccessful or
uneconomical development work are expensed.
Cash and cash equivalents - The Company defines cash and cash equivalents
to be cash on hand, cash in checking accounts, certificates of deposit,
cash in money market accounts and certain investments with maturities of
three months or less from the date of purchase.
3. INCOME TAXES:
As of December 31, 1999, the Company has tax net operating loss carryforwards
totaling approximately $694,000. If not used, these carryforwards will
expire in the years 2000 to 2018.
Item 2. PLAN OF OPERATION
All statements other than statements of historical fact contained herein
are forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements were prepared
on the basis of certain assumptions which relate, among other things, to costs
expected to be incurred in the acquisition, exploration and development of
the Company's properties. Even if the assumptions on which the projections
are based prove accurate and appropriate, the actual results of the Company's
operations in the future may vary widely from the financial projections due
to unforeseen engineering, mechanical or technological difficulties in
drilling wells, general economic conditions, increased competition, changes
in government regulation or intervention in the oil and gas or mining
industries, and other risks described in the Company's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the actual results of
the Company's operations in the future may vary widely from the forward-
looking statements included herein.
As of May 1, 2000, the Registrant had approximately $196,766 cash on
hand, which amount includes the proceeds of a $200,000 private placement of
its common stock which was effected on April 4, 2000. The Registrant expects
that its cash on hand will be sufficient to fund its operations for 12 months.
The Registrant's material commitments consist of annual lease payments on the
Cheyenne River Prospect of approximately $138,000, of which $104,000 were
paid in March 2000 with the proceeds of a loan described below. Additional
commitments consist of office lease payments of $3,400 per month. In January
2000 the Registrant sublet a portion of its office space at $1,000.00 per
month. Mr. Whitehead serves as an executive officer of the Registrant without
compensation. Pending receipt of additional capital by the Registrant, Mr.
Bradley suspended his salary during 1999 and, effective January 1, 2000,
agreed to serve as an executive officer without compensation. The Registrant
has a recorded an accrued liability of $55,395.00 as of December 31, 1999
which represents the amount of Mr. Bradley's suspended salary payments
during 1999.
The Registrant has funded its operations in 1999 from the proceeds of a
$100,000 private placement of shares of its common stock to one accredited
investor and by borrowing from the Albert E. Whitehead Living Trust (the
"AEW Trust"). In March 1999, the Registrant borrowed $105,000 from Albert
E. Whitehead Living Trust pursuant to a promissory note due March 15, 2000
which bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum (the "AEW Note"). The
proceeds of this loan were used to pay lease rentals on the Cheyenne River
Prospect. The AEW Trust also paid the Registrant's day-to-day operating
expenses from April through September 1999 including, without limitation,
the monthly office lease payments and the salary of the Registrant's
secretary. Amounts paid by Mr. Whitehead were added to the
principal of the AEW Note which was $172,754.00 as of December 31, 1999 and
$185,508 as of March 15, 2000. On March 15, 2000, the Registrant issued a
convertible promissory note due March 15, 2001 in the principal amount of
$295,508 to the AEW Trust, which note bears interest at the rate of 10% per
annum and is convertible into shares of the Registrant's common stock at the
price of $0.4370 per share, which represented the market price of the
Registrant's common stock on such date. The convertible note was issued
to the AEW Trust in consideration of the surrender of the original AEW Note
and the advancement of an additional $110,000 to the Registrant by the AEW
Trust. The proceeds of this additional loan were used to pay lease rentals
on the Cheyenne River Prospect.
On April 4, 2000, the Registrant sold 666,666 shares of its Common Stock
at a purchase price of $200,000 to one accredited investor in a private
placement under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The Registrant intends
to use the proceeds of this offering for working capital purposes. The
Registrant has been actively engaged in discussions with numerous sources
of additional financing for the Registrant and parties which may be
interested in acquiring an interest in the Registrant's properties. In
March 1999, the Registrant engaged Oak Creek Capital, Inc., on a non-
exclusive basis, for 120 days, to assist the Registrant in locating an
industry partner to participate in the Cheyenne River Prospect. This
engagement expired and was renewed for an additional 120 day period in
January 2000. This renewed engagement expired on May 10, 2000. There can
be no assurance that the Registrant will be successful in locating industry
partners to pay the costs of exploring its properties or in raising the
additional capital required to continue its operations.
If the Registrant is not successful in raising additional capital, the
Registrant's continued operations would depend on the continued
cooperation and support of Messrs. Whitehead and Bradley and its
ability to raise additional capital or locate an industry partner to
pay the annual lease rentals on, and the costs of exploring its Cheyenne
River Prospect. Under the terms of the agreement governing the Cheyenne
River Prospect, as amended, if the Registrant is unable to finance the cost
of the first well on the Cheyenne River Prospect by August 15, 2000, the
Registrant will be required to obtain an additional extension of this date
or seek a buyer for the prospect. In such event, assuming the parties are
successful in locating a buyer for the prospect, the Registrant would
recover its costs in acquiring the prospect and would receive 50% of
any profits from the sale of the prospect in excess of such costs.
Given the present environment for selling oil and gas prospects, there
can be no assurance that a sale could be effected on advantageous terms.
In July the Registrant notified the lessors of 94 of the claims in its
Jessup gold exploration property in Nevada, that it was canceling its lease
agreement with them. In August 1999, the Registrant transferred its interest
in the Verlee and Pancake Summit properties in Nevada to third parties by
quitclaim deed in exchange for a 1% net smelter interest in those properties.
In August the Registrant relinquished the remainder of its gold exploration
properties to concentrate its activities on its Cheyenne River Prospect.
As a result of the cancellation of the leases on the Registrant's gold
exploration property located in Churchill County, Nevada (the "Jessup
Property"), the transfer of its interests in the Verlee and Pancake Summit
Prospects and the decision to relinquish its other gold exploration
properties, the Registrant wrote off $793,266.37 of its assets as of
September 30, 1999.
Exploration for oil and gas, is highly speculative and involves greater
risks than many other businesses. Oil and gas drilling and development is
frequently marked by by unprofitable efforts, not only from unproductive
prospects, but also from producing prospects which do not produce
sufficient amounts to return a profit on the amount expended. Accordingly,
there can be no assurance that the Registrant will be able to discover,
develop or produce sufficient reserves to recover the expenses incurred in
connection with the exploration of its properties, to fund additional
exploration or to achieve profitability.
The Registrant does not expect any significant change in the number of
its employees during 2000. If the Registrant is successful in raising
additional capital, it will employ part-time or temporary persons and
consultants in situations where special expertise is required.
