Freestone Resources, Inc.

(A Development Stage Company)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2014

(Unaudited)

 

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of Activities, History and Organization:

 

Freestone Resources, Inc. (the “Company” or “Freestone”) is an oil and gas technology development company that is actively developing and marketing technologies and solvents designed to benefit various sectors in the oil and gas industry. The Company has re-launched its Petrozene™ solvent after months of working with manufactures to develop a new and improved formula. Petrozene™ is predominantly used for paraffin buildup. Petrozene™ can be used for pipelines, oil storage tanks, oil sludge build up, de-emulsification, well treatment, as a corrosion inhibitor and as a catalyst in opening up formations thereby aiding in oil production. More information about Petrozene™ can be found at: http://www.petrozene.com.

 

On November 16, 2012 the Company entered into a Company Agreement of Aqueous Services, LLC (“Aqueous”), a Texas limited liability company, with International Aqueous Investments, LLC and Pajarito W&M, LP. Aqueous is a joint venture between the Company and the two aforementioned parties, whereas the Company owns a 33.33% interest in Aqueous. Aqueous is a full water management company with access to a fresh water well that has been permitted to up to one thousand five hundred acre-feet of water per annum. A facility has been constructed that is owned and operated by Aqueous for the purpose of providing water for oil and gas activities in the Eagle Ford. This site includes a designated location for the recycling frac water and produced water. More information about Aqueous Services can be found at: http://www.aqueousservices.com.

 

Development Stage Company

 

The Company is a development-stage company as defined in FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 915 “Development Stage Enterprises”.  As of July 1, 2010 the Company reentered the development stage entity because it is devoting substantially all of its efforts to raising capital and establishing its business and principal operations, and no sales have been derived to date from its principal operations.  The Company reentered the development stage due to management's decision to cease any operations of the oil separation technology licensed by Earth Oil Services, Inc.  Instead, the Company began development of its own oil separation technology.  The development of the aforesaid technology resulted in the need to raise additional capital for the construction and development of a prototype Oil Recovery Unit.

  

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 nine months ended March 31, 2014 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, 2013 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 Noncontrolling Interest method.  Management believes that all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of thenine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 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." 

 

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 ASC 605-15 “Revenue Recognition”, (formerly 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. 

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, as there was a net loss from operations, any potentially dilutive securities would be considered anti-dilutive and have been excluded from the fully diluted shares outstanding. Therefore, primary earnings per share equals fully diluted.

 

Fair Value Measurements:

 

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements.  In general, fair value of financial instruments are based upon quoted market prices, where available.  If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market based parameters.  Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value.  These adjustments may include amounts to reflect counterparty credit quality and the Corporation’s credit worthiness, among other things, as well as unobservable parameters.  Any such valuation adjustments are applied consistently over time.

  

 

 

Accounts Receivable:

 

Accounts Receivable are carried at their face amount, less an allowance for doubtful accounts.  On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates accounts receivable and establishes the allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of specific customer circumstances and credit conditions, based on a history of write offs and collections.  The Company’s policy is generally not to charge interest on trade receivables after the invoice becomes past due.  A receivable is considered past due if payments have not been received within agreed upon invoice terms.   Write offs are recorded at a time when a customer receivable is deemed uncollectible.  The Company had no bad debt accruals at March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013.

 

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 its oil enhancement technologies.  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.

 

Equipment:

 

Equipment is carried at the cost of acquisition or construction and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Costs associated with repair and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Costs associated with improvements which extend the life, increase the capacity or improve the efficiency of our property and equipment are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining life of the related asset. Gains and losses on dispositions of equipment are reflected in operations. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are 3 to 30 years.  Oil and gas properties were purchased primarily for product testing and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives of 3 years but not reduced below estimated salvage value.

 

Impairment of Long Lived Assets:

 

The Company evaluates, on a periodic 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”. 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. 

 

Asset Retirement Obligation:

 

The Company records the fair value of a liability for asset retirement obligations (“ARO”) in the period in which an obligation is incurred and records a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. For Freestone Resources, asset retirement obligations primarily relate to the abandonment of oil and gas properties. The present value of the estimated asset retirement cost is capitalized as part of the carrying amount of oil and gas properties. The settlement date fair value is discounted at Freestone Resource’s credit adjusted risk-free rate in determining the abandonment liability. The abandonment liability is accreted with the passage of time to its expected settlement fair value. Revisions to such estimates are recorded as adjustments to ARO and capitalized asset retirement costs and are charged to operations in the period in which they become known. At the time the abandonment cost is incurred, Freestone Resources is required to recognize a gain or loss if the actual costs do not equal the estimated costs included in ARO.

 

 

 

 

  

The amounts recognized for ARO are based upon numerous estimates and assumptions, including future abandonment costs, future recoverable quantities of oil and gas, future inflation rates, and the credit adjusted risk free interest rate.

  

NOTE 2 – FIXED ASSETS

 

Fixed assets at March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013 are as follows:

		March 31, 2014				June 30, 2013

NOTE 3 – NOTES PAYABLE - RELATED PARTIES

 

The Company had a related party receivable of $15,000 from Freestone Water Solutions, (“FWS”) a joint venture between MEA Solutions, LLC and Freestone Resources, Inc., which was created in September of 2011. Freestone did not have a controlling equity position in FWS nor did Freestone control the board or management of FWS. FWS was in the business of recycling flow back water and produced water for subsequent reuse in the fracking process. MEA and Freestone advanced FWS certain short-term, start-up cash. Profits and losses from FWS will be accounted for under the equity method and reflected as an Investment in Freestone Water Solutions on the balance sheet. As discussed in Note 14 of our June 30, 2012, 10-K, on September 4, 2012, FWS was dissolved. The receivable was written off to bad debt expense in fiscal year 2012, as it was uncollectible. On August 13, 2012 the Company advanced FWS an additional $12,000. This was written off as of September 4, 2012. As of June 30, 2012 the Company had a liability of $11,978 related to its negative equity investment in FWS. On September 4, 2012 the Company wrote-off this liability against the $12,000 advance resulting in a net $22,000 of write-offs.

  

NOTE 4 – INCOME TAXES

 

The Company has adopted ASC 740-10, “Income Taxes”, 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 nine months ended March 31, 2014 the Company had a net loss of $464,700, increasing the deferred tax asset approximately $157,998 at the statutory tax rate of 34%.  Deferred tax assets at March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013 consisted of the following:

 

Deferred tax asset related to:

 

		March 31,				June 30,
		2014				2013
Prior Year		$	1,694,684			$	1,308,755
Tax Benefit (Expense) for Current Period			157,998				385,929
Net Operating Loss Carry-forward		$	1,852,682			$	1,694,684
Less: Valuation Allowance			(1,852,682	)			(1,694,684	)
Net Deferred Tax Asset		$	0			$	0

 

 

The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved and will expire in the years 2020 through 2031. The realization of deferred tax benefits is contingent upon future earnings and is fully reserved at March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013.

 

 

NOTE 5 – ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

 

The Company’s asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) primarily represents the estimated present value of the amount Freestone Resources will incur to plug, abandon and remediate sites producing properties at the end of their productive lives, in accordance with applicable state laws. Freestone Resources determines the ARO on its oil and gas properties by calculating the present value of estimated cash flows related to the liability. At March 31, 2014, the liability for ARO was 14,470 all of which is considered long term. The asset retirement obligations are recorded as current or non-current liabilities based on the estimated timing of the anticipated cash flows. During 2014, the Company sold the Carroll lease resulting in a reduction in the ARO obligation of $26,027. Otherwise the Company has not recognized accretion expense, as the oil and gas properties are recorded at salvage value.

 

 

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Company leases office space under a non-cancelable operating lease that expires in July 2014.  The lease requires fixed escalations and payment of electricity costs.  Rent expense, included in general and administrative expenses, totaled approximately 19,476 and $21,363 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 respectively.

  

   

NOTE 7 – EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

 

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 common shares at a par value of $0.001 per share. These shares have full voting rights.  At March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, there were 71,543,177 and 68,318,177 respectively, common shares outstanding.

 

During the nine months ended March 31, 2014 the Company sold 625,000 shares. 

 

On February 18, 2014 the Company issued shares of the Company’s common stock to certain directors, officers and consultants for services rendered to the Company.

 

 

Clayton Carter, the Company’s Director and Chief Executive Officer, received 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, G. Don Edwards, the Company’s Director and Chief Investment Officer, received 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and James Carroll, the Company’s Director and Chief Financial Officer received 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

The Company also issued 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to consultants as consideration for services rendered to the Company.

 

In each case, the certificates representing the shares carry a legend that the shares may not be transferred without compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 or in reliance upon an exemption therefrom.   For each of these transactions, the Company relied upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 as an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act.

 

 

NOTE 8 – FREESTONE TECHNOLOGIES, LLC

 

On October 24, 2008.  Freestone established 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 research and development for subsequent technologies.  The assets and liabilities of the Subsidiary are included in the consolidated financial statements of Freestone.

 

 

NOTE 9 – INVESTMENT IN AQUESOUS SERVICES, LLC.

 

On November 16, 2012 the Company formed Aqueous Services, LLC (“Aqueous”), a Texas limited liability company, with International Aqueous Investments, LLC and Pajarito W&M, LP. The Company made an initial capital contribution of $100,000 in exchange for a 33.33% interest in the joint venture. Aqueous is a full water management company with access to a fresh water well that has been permitted to extract up to one thousand five hundred acre-feet (approximately 500 million gallons) of water per annum. Aqueous constructed and operates a facility to provide fresh water for oil and gas activities in the Eagle Ford. This site also includes a designated location for the recycling frac and production water.

 

 

The joint venture is accounted for under the equity method as follows:

 

			March 31, 2014				June 30, 2013
Beginning Balance		$	109,673			$	0
Capital Contributions			0				115,000
Equity in Loss of JV			(23,076	)			(5,327	)
Period End Balance		$	86,597			$	109,673

 

 

NOTE 10 – GOING CONCERN

 

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, Freestone incurred operating losses, and has a negative working capital position as of March 31, 2014.  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 11 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

Cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued expenses and other current assets and liabilities are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair values because of the relatively short maturity of those instruments.

 

Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (formally SFAS No. 157), establishes a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described as follows:

  

Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.

 

	Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include:
	• quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
	• quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;
	• inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;
	• inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

  

	If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
	Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

    

The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

 

Asset retirement obligations are recorded based on the present value of the estimated cost to retire the oil and gas properties and are depleted over the useful life of the asset. The settlement date fair value is discounted at the Company’s credit adjusted risk-free rate in determining the abandonment liability.

 

The preceding method described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Company believes its valuation method is appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. The Company’s liabilities all valued at Level 3, at fair value as of March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013 were $299,991 and $320,572, respectively.

  

 

 

NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On April 16, 2014 the Company sold 2,000,000 shares of common stock for $120,000 in working capital to private investors.

NOTE 13 - SUPPLEMENTAL OIL AND GAS DATA (UNAUDITED)

 

The following tables set forth supplementary disclosures for oil and gas producing activities in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 932, Extractive Activities - Oil and Gas (“ASC 932”). The Company generates revenue from the disposal of oil that is extracted during their research and development activities. Currently, as the Company is in the development stage, 100% of their revenue is generated from the revenue associated with the disposal. The properties were purchased as test properties for the various technologies the Company is developing or would analyze for potential development. In order to get the most accurate data of the testing, the Company was required to purchase and own the wells so the data could be verified as accurate by the Company without the fear of third-party variables. The wells are marginally producing wells and it is not economically feasible to perform the work necessary to bring them up to the condition in order for them to effectively produce at this time. As the wells are not currently economically feasible to operate in a capacity other than research and development, and the Company has no intentions to develop the wells at this time, no proved reserves have been estimated. As the wells are not currently economically feasible, there is no value assigned to the oil and gas leaseholds and the equipment is recorded at salvage value.

Reserve Quantity Information

 

The following table presents the Company’s estimate of its proved oil and gas reserves all of which are located in the United States. The Company emphasizes that reserve estimates are inherently imprecise and that estimates of reserves related to new discoveries are more imprecise than those for producing oil and gas properties. Accordingly, the estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available. Oil reserves, which include condensate and natural gas liquids, are stated in barrels and gas reserves are stated in thousands of cubic feet.

 

		Oil (Bbls)				Gas (mcf)
Proved developed and undeveloped reserves:
Balance at June 30, 2013			0				0
Production			0				0
Revisions of previous estimates			0				0

Revenue increased in the second quarter due to minimal Petrozene activity and no activity in the in-field research wells in fiscal 2013. Revenue increased in the nine months ended March 31, 2013, due to Petrozene™revenues of $11,390. Fiscal 2013 revenues are oil and gas based as there was more in-field research and development activity versus fiscal year 2014.

 

Cost of Revenues – Cost of sales (Petrozene™) for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $0 and $0, respectively. Cost of sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were $5,511 and $0, respectively. The cost is related to purchasing and transporting the product.

 

Lease Operating Expense - Lease operating expense for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $2,919 compared to $6,731 for the same period in 2013 and $25,306 for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $15,690 for the same period in 2013.
