Freestone Resources, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Activities, History and Organization:
Freestone Resources, Inc. (“Freestone” or the “Company”) is an oil and gas technology development company. The Company is located in Dallas, Texas and is incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada.
The Company’s primary business is the development of new technologies that allow for the utilization of oil and gas resources in an environmentally responsible and cost effective way, as well as the development of technologies that can be used in the environmental cleanup of oil-based contaminant byproducts.
The Company acquired one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding stock of Earth Oil Services, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“EOS”), in a non-cash transaction on September 24, 2009. The Company issued 31,603,734 shares of restricted common stock of the Company in consideration for this transaction. EOS owns
certain exclusive, territorial, license agreements to a proprietary technology that is a chemical solvent that can separate, extract and recycle hydrocarbon contaminants from ground soils, tar sands, vessels and other materials. This technology is marketed under the name EncapSol (“EncapSol”). EOS has engaged a fabricator to build a prototype machine (the “Prototype”) designed to be used in conjunction with EncapSol. EOS is indebted to the fabricator
for its development of the Prototype. EOS is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Freestone and all intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
Unaudited Interim Financial Statements:
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include
all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the balance sheet, statement of operations, statement of stockholders’ equity and statement of cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. It is presumed that users of this interim financial information have read or have access to the audited financial statements and footnote disclosure for the preceding fiscal year contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2009 and three months ended September 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year or any other interim period. The
information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Management's Discussion and Analysis and Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s June 30, 2009 Form 10-K.
Significant Accounting Policies:
The Company’s management selects accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and adopts methods for their application. The application of accounting principles requires the estimating, matching and timing of revenue and expense. It is also necessary for management to determine,
measure and allocate resources and obligations within the financial process according to those principles. The accounting policies used conform to generally accepted accounting principles which have been consistently applied in the preparation of these financial statements.
The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and
preventing and detecting fraud. The Company's system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that 1) recorded transactions are valid; 2) valid transactions are recorded; and 3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results
of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being presented.
Basis of Presentation
The Company prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. Investments in subsidiaries, where the Company has a controlling interest, are reported using the equity method. For those businesses that the Company does not have
a controlling interest, they are accounted through the Minority Interest method. Management believes that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 have been made.
The Company consolidates its subsidiaries in accordance with ASC 810, Business Combinations, (formally SFAS 141R) and specifically ASC 810-10-15-8 which states, "The usual condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest, and, therefore, as a general rule ownership by one reporting entity, directly
or indirectly, or over 50% of the outstanding voting shares of another entity is a condition pointing toward consolidation."
|
· |
The Company owns 100% of EOS and has applied ASC 810 in consolidating the subsidiary. |
|
· |
EOS owns 50% of BRC, as does an unrelated third party, Hidden Peak Group. Although each party owns 50%, Hidden Peak Group maintains control of the three person management board with three representatives, and therefore, applying the requirements for consolidations under ASC 810, EOS has not consolidated BRC but shows its impact through the Minority Interest method. |
FASB Accounting Standards Codification:
In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance concerning the organization of authoritative guidance under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). This new guidance created the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”). The
Codification has become the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative U.S. GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification became effective for the Company in its quarter ended September 30, 2009. As the Codification is not intended to change or alter existing U.S. GAAP, it did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements. On its effective date, the Codification superseded all then-existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other nongrandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become nonauthoritative.
Reclassification:
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified in the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows to conform to current period presentation. These reclassifications were not material to the consolidated financial statements and had no effect on net earnings
reported for any period.
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in banks with original maturities of three months or less and are stated at cost which approximates market value, which in the opinion of management, are subject to an insignificant risk of loss in value.
Revenue Recognition:
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" ("SAB 104"). Revenue will be recognized only when all of the following criteria
have been met.
1. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists;
2. Ownership and all risks of loss have been transferred to buyer, which is generally upon shipment;
3. The price is fixed and determinable; and
4. Collectability is reasonably assured.
Revenue is recorded net any of sales taxes charged to customers.
Income Taxes:
The Company has adopted , ASC 740-10 “Income Taxes” (formerly SFAS No. 109), which requires the use of the liability method in the computation of income tax expense and the current and deferred income taxes payable.
Property and Equipment:
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Major renewals and improvements are capitalized; minor replacements, maintenance and repairs are charged to current operations. Depreciation is computed by applying the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives which are generally five to
seven years.
Earnings per Share:
Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share include the effects of any outstanding options, warrants and other potentially dilutive securities. For the periods presented,
there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
In accordance with the reporting requirements of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” (formerly SFAS No. 157, “Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments”) the Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities
which qualify as financial instruments under this statement and includes this additional information in the notes to the financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of those financial instruments. The estimated fair value of the note payable approximate its carrying amounts due to the short maturity of this
instrument.
Oil and Gas Properties:
Freestone is actively purchasing marginal oil and gas properties and leasing properties that will be used in the further research and development of EncapSol. This research focuses on the types of formations that will benefit the most from the use of the solvent, as well as the various applications from production and storage
to end cycle refinement.
The Company evaluates, on a quarterly basis, long-lived assets to be held and used for impairment in accordance with the reporting requirements of ASC 360-10, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, (formerly “SFAS” No. 144, Accounting for
the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets). The evaluation is based on certain impairment indicators, such as the nature of the assets, the future economic benefit of the assets, any historical or future profitability measurements, as well as other external market conditions or factors that may be present. If these impairment indicators are present or other factors exist that indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable, then an estimate of the discounted value of expected
future operating cash flows is used to determine whether the asset is recoverable and the amount of any impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its estimated fair value. The fair value is estimated using valuation techniques such as market prices for similar assets or discounted future operating cash flows.

Note 3 – Note Payable
On October 27, 2008, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Freestone Technologies, LLC, was issued an equipment loan by Third Coast Bank in the amount of $37,352. The terms of the loan include a minimum interest rate of two points over the current bank index (prime rate) or 7.0%, a maturity date of October 27, 2009, and
twelve monthly payments of $3,234. The collateral for the loan includes the equipment purchased from the proceeds of the loan. On October 27, 2009 this loan was paid-in-full.
On April 4, 2009, the Company was issued a Line of Credit from Third Coast Bank in the amount of $18,000. The terms of this note include a market-rate interest rate (4.0% at June 30, 2009), a maturity date of October 4, 2009 and monthly installment payments of no less than sixty-five dollars per month. On October
27, 2009, this note was renewed. The terms of this note include a market-rate interest rate (4.0%), a maturity date of April 28, 2010 and monthly installment payments of no less than sixty-five dollars per month.
Note 4 – Note Payable (Related Party)
During the year ended June 30, 2008, the Company assumed certain debt in conjunction with the issuance of the 30,000,000 shares of common stock to various individuals affiliated to a now former CEO, Lloyd Lane (Lane), including a mortgage note for approximately $54,000 secured by the building the Company received as part of the same transaction.
The building had a cost basis of $62,500. During the year ended June 30, 2009, Lane advanced $110,771 to the Company on a non-interest bearing unsecured basis. Also, later during the year ended June 30, 2009, the building and the related note payable and Petrozene inventory was transferred back to Lane in exchange for the cancellation of 27,865,000 shares of common stock previously issued to him.
On December 11, 2008, the Company received a loan advanced from Donna Doran in the amount of $50,000. The advance was non-interest bearing, unsecured and payable in thirty-six installments beginning January 1, 2009. On April 21, 2009, the advance was converted to 2,000,000 restricted shares of common stock and the
Company recognized a $20,000 loss on the extinguishment of debt.
On May 26, 2009 the Company received a loan from Mike Doran (Doran), CEO, in the amount of $25,000. A note payable was formally prepared by the Company but never executed by Doran. The terms of the loan included an interest rate of three and a half percent, and the payment of twelve monthly installments beginning
on October 31, 2009. On July 8, 2009, an amended and restated promissory note with similar terms was executed to replace the original note payable. During the year ended June 30, 2009, the Company received an advance from Mr. Doran of $20,000 which was repaid during the year.
Note 5 – Income Taxes
The Company has adopted ASC 740-10 (formerly SFAS No. 109), which requires the use of the liability method in the computation of income tax expense and the current and deferred income taxes payable (deferred tax liability) or benefit (deferred tax asset). Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred
tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
During the three months ended September 30, 2009 the Company had a net loss of $15,172, increasing the deferred tax $5,158 asset at the statutory tax rate of 34%. Deferred tax assets at September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009 consisted of the following:

The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carryforward has been fully reserved. The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is approximately $537,181 at September 30, 2009 and $522,009 at June 30, 2009, and will expire in the years 2019 through 2029.
The realization of deferred tax benefits is contingent upon future earnings and is fully reserved at September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2009.
Note 6 – Equity Transactions
On September 24, 2009 Freestone issued 31,603,734 shares of common stock valued at $1,264,149 to Earth Oil Services, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, in consideration for one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding common stock in Earth Oil Services, Inc.

The transaction generated negative goodwill of $180,201and since the Company has not yet completed an audit of EOS, to be conservative, it off-set the negative goodwill against the investment and did not apply ASC 810, Business Combinations (formally SFAS
141R), which states that if the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired is greater than the sum of purchase consideration and the fair values of any non-controlling interests and existing equity interests, the excess must be recorded as a gain in earnings as of the transaction date.
The Company expects to have an audit of EOS as well as a fair market appraisal of assets completed by December 4, 2009.
Note 7 – Freestone Technologies, LLC
On October 24, 2008 Freestone established and incorporated Freestone Technologies, LLC (the “Subsidiary”) in the state of Texas. The Subsidiary is wholly owned by Freestone and has certain assets and liabilities relating to the purchase of oil wells. These wells were purchased as additional test wells
for Petrozene, and will also be used to test Freestone’s new chemical solvent, EncapSol. The assets and liabilities of the Subsidiary are included in the consolidated financial statements of Freestone.
Note 8 – Going Concern
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, Freestone incurred operating losses, and has a negative working capital position as of September 30, 2009. The above factors raise substantial doubt about Freestone's ability to continue as a going concern. Freestone's continued existence is dependent
on its ability to obtain additional equity and/or debt financing to fund its operations. Freestone plans to raise additional financing and to increase sales volume. There is no assurance that Freestone will obtain additional financing or achieve profitable operations or cash inflows. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that
might be necessary as a result of this uncertainty.
Note 9 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In 2009, the FASB issued the following guidance:
FASB ASC 860-10-05: "Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—(Prior authoritative literature: FASB Statement No. 166 -- an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140"), which will be effective for the first annual or quarterly period after November 15, 2009.
FASB ASC 810-10-05: "Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets,(Prior authoritative literature: FASB Statement No. 167 “Amendments to FASB Intrepretation No. 46(R)”). Which is for the first annual or quarterly period after November 15, 2009.
FASB ASC 825: “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments (Prior authoritative literature: FSP No. FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1)
FASB ASC 320-10-65-4: “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments”, (Prior authoritative literature: FSP No. FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2).
FASB ASC 820-10-65-4: “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly”(Prior authoritative
literature FSP No. FAS 157-4).
Management has reviewed these new standards and believes that they will have no material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those set forth on the forward looking statements as a result
of the risks set forth in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, general economic conditions, and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward looking statements.
General
On August 22, 2007, the Company changed its name to Freestone Resources, Inc. in anticipation of going into the oil and gas technology development business. Since that time Freestone began developing and acquiring rights to chemical solvents that can increase the production in oil and gas wells, decrease the viscosity of
heavy oil, and extract hydrocarbons from various forms of matter. The Company is currently developing its keystone product, EncapSol.
Acquisition of Earth Oil Services, Inc.:
The Company acquired one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding stock of Earth Oil Services, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“EOS”), in a non-cash transaction on September 24, 2009. The Company issued 31,603,734 shares of restricted common stock of the Company in consideration for this transaction. EOS owns
certain exclusive, territorial, license agreements to a proprietary technology that is a chemical solvent that can separate, extract and recycle hydrocarbon contaminants from ground soils, tar sands, vessels and other materials. This technology is marketed under the name EncapSol (“EncapSol”). EOS has engaged a fabricator to build a prototype machine (the “Prototype”) designed to be used in conjunction with EncapSol. EOS is indebted to the fabricator
for its development of the Prototype. EOS is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Freestone.
Assets of EOS
EOS holds certain assets that include exclusive territorial license agreements for the use of EncapSol, and 50% ownership of Bleeding Rock, LLC, a Utah corporation (“Bleeding Rock”). Bleeding Rock owns 20,600,000 shares of Green River Resources, Corp., an Alberta Canada corporation. The last Green River Resources, Inc.
(“Green River”) stock transaction was for stock options to employees of Green River (“Green River Options”). The aforesaid Green River Options were optioned for $0.35 per share. Thus, the total ownership of Green River Shares owned by Bleeding Rock is valuated at $ 7,210,000. EOS owns 50% (valued at $3,605,000) of Bleeding Rock, and is entitled to 47% of the profits from EOS’ 50% ownership of Bleeding Rock. The approximate net value of Green River Shares owned by EOS equates to a
book value of $1,694,350.
The Company is in the process of obtaining a third party appraisal of the License Agreements. The asset appraisal to determine the value to be assigned to the assets included in the transaction is planned to be conducted by the end of the fourth quarter of 2009 and therefore will require amended disclosure pertaining to the assets
of the Company. The transaction, where 31,603,734 shares were exchanged by the Company was valued at $1,264,149 based on the price of the stock on September 24, 2009.
Liabilities of EOS
EOS has certain liabilities that include $150,000 in license fees owed to Environmental Services and Support, Inc., a California corporation (“ESSI”), an invoice in the amount of $250,000 from SRS Engineering Corporation, a California corporation that built the fourth generation EncapSol Recovery Technology. The
Company is responsible for the payment of $250,000 to the manufacturers of the fourth generation EncapSol Recovery Technology and the payment of $150,000 license fee to ESSI, totaling $400,000.
Basis of Presentation
The Company consolidates its subsidiaries in accordance with ASC 810, Business Combinations, (formally SFAS 141R) and specifically ASC 810-10-15-8 which states, "The usual condition for a controlling financial interest is ownership of a majority voting interest, and, therefore, as a general rule ownership by one reporting entity, directly
or indirectly, or over 50% of the outstanding voting shares of another entity is a condition pointing toward consolidation."
|
· |
The Company owns 100% of EOS and has applied ASC 810 in consolidating the subsidiary. |
|
· |
EOS owns 50% of BRC, as does an unrelated third party, Hidden Peak Group. Although each party owns 50%, Hidden Peak Group maintains control of the three person management board with three representatives, and therefore, applying the requirements for consolidations under ASC 810, EOS has not consolidated BRC but shows its impact through the Minority Interest method. |
Results of Operations
Three months Ended September 30, 2009 Compared to three months Ended September 30, 2008
Revenue - Our revenue for the three months September 30, 2009 was $21,492, compared to $36,232 revenue for the same period in 2008. Revenue decreased in the first quarter due to reduced oil and gas sales.
Lease Operating Expense - Lease operating expense for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $2,693 compared to $42,091 for the same period in 2008. Lease operating expense decreased for three months ended due to cost associated with wells acquired on November 1, 2007.
Operating Expense - Total operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2009 were $619 of depreciation and depletion expense and $26,308 of general and administrative expenses respectively,
compared to $6,942 depreciation and depletion expense and $239,162 of general and administrative expenses for the same period in 2008.
Net Income (Loss) - Net income loss for the three months ended September 30, 2009 was $(165,029) compared to net loss of $(259,512)
for the same period in 2008.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have little cash reserves and liquidity to the extent we receive it from operations.
During the three months ended September, 2009, our cash and cash equivalent decreased to $2,112 from $4,815 at June 30, 2009.
Net cash used in operating activities was ($1,207) for the three months ended September 30, 2009 compared to ($3,140) provided by operating activities for the same period in 2008.
Employees
As of September 30, 2009, Freestone only employees are officers of the Company.
Need for Additional Financing
No commitments to provide additional funds have been made by management or other stockholders. Our independent auditors included a going concern qualification in their report included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2009, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue
as a going concern.
ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2009. This evaluation was accomplished under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer /principal
executive officer, and chief financial officer/principal financial officer who concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Based upon an evaluation conducted for the period ended June 30, 2009, our Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer as of June 30, 2009 and as of the date of this Report, has concluded that as of the end of the periods covered by this report, we have identified the following material weakness of our internal controls:
|
· |
Lack of sufficient accounting staff which results in a lack of segregation of duties necessary for a good system of internal control and financial statement presentation. |
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
We have not yet made any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II
Items No. 1, 3, 4 - Not Applicable.

During the three months ended September 30, 2009, Freestone issued 31,603,734 restricted shares of common stock valued at $1,264,149 to Larry Shultz and Environmental Services and Support, Inc. Larry Shultz and Environmental Services and Support, Inc. agreed to acquire the shares for investment purposes only and not for resale. The certificates
representing the shares carry a legend that the shares may not be sold or transferred without compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) or in reliance upon an applicable exemption there from. In connection with the issue of these shares, the Company relied upon the private offering exemption found in section 4(2) of the Act.
