REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of U.S. Geothermal, Inc. as of March 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity, operations, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended March 31, 2012. U.S. Geothermal, Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 audit 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 also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of .S. Geothermal, Inc. as of March 31, 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended March 31, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

U.S. GEOTHERMAL INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2012
(Stated in U.S. Dollars)

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

When U.S. Cobalt Inc. (“GTH” or the “Company”) completed a reverse take-over on December 19, 2003, the former stockholders of U.S. Geothermal Inc. (“GEO – Idaho”) a company incorporated on February 26, 2002 in the State of Idaho, U.S.A. acquired control of GTH. In connection with the transaction, U.S. Cobalt Inc. changed its name to U.S. Geothermal Inc. and consolidated its common stock on a one new to five old basis. All references to common shares in these financial statements have been restated to reflect the rollback of common stock. The Company constructs and manages power plants that utilize geothermal resources to produce energy. The Company’s operations have been, primarily, focused in the Western United States of America.

All references to “dollars” or “$” are to United States dollars and all references to $ CDN are to Canadian dollars.

Basis of Presentation

The Company consolidates subsidiaries that it controls (more-than-50% owned) and entities over which control is achieved through means other than voting rights. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, as well as one controlling interest. The accounts of the following companies are consolidated in these financial statements:

  i)

U.S. Geothermal Inc. (incorporated in the State of Delaware);

  ii)

U.S. Geothermal Inc. (incorporated in the State of Idaho);

  iii)

Gerlach Geothermal LLC (organized in the State of Delaware);

  iv)

U.S. Geothermal Services, LLC (organized in the State of Delaware);

  v)

USG Nevada LLC (organized in the State of Delaware);

  vi)

Raft River Energy I LLC (organized in the State of Delaware);

  vii)

USG Gerlach LLC (organized in the State of Delaware);

  viii)

USG Oregon LLC (organized in the State of Delaware)

  ix)

Oregon USG Holdings, LLC (organized in the State of Delaware);

  x)

Nevada USG Holdings, LLC (organized in the State of Delaware);

  xi)

Nevada North USG Holdings, LLC (organized in the State of Delaware)

  xii)

USG Nevada North, LLC (organized in the State of Delaware); and

  xiii)

U.S. Geothermal Guatemala, S.A.

All intercompany transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

Raft River Energy I LLC (“RREI”), previously a 100% owned subsidiary, was recorded from July 1, 2006 through March 31, 2011 under the equity method after the addition of a controlling partner for additional project financing. The Company as determined that effective April 1, 2011, RREI was fully consolidated and recognizes a non-controlling interest. The change was warranted due to circumstances and conditions that affected the control of the entity (See Notes 17 and 18 for details).

In cases where the Company owns a majority interest in an entity but does not own 100% of the interest in the entity it recognizes a non-controlling interest. The Company will recognize 100% of the assets and liabilities of the entity, and disclose the non-controlling interest. The statements of operations will consolidate the subsidiary’s full operations, and will separately disclose the elimination of the non-controlling interest’s allocation of profits and losses.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following are summarized accounting policies considered to be significant by the Company’s management:

Accounting Method

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions and could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company’s consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all unrestricted cash, short-term deposits, and other investments with original maturities of no more than ninety days when acquired to be cash and cash equivalents for the purposes of the statement of cash flows. Discussion regarding restricted cash is included in Note 3.

Trade Accounts Receivable Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Management estimates the amount of trade accounts receivable that may not be collectible and records an allowance for doubtful accounts, accordingly. The allowance is an estimate based upon aging of receivable balances, historical collection experience, and the periodic credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition. Receivable balances are written off when we determine that the balance is uncollectible. As of March 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no balances that were over 90 days past due and no balance in allowance for doubtful accounts was recognized.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, consisted of commercial bank deposits, money market accounts, and petty cash. Cash deposits are held in commercial banks in Boise, Idaho and Portland, Oregon. Deposits are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per legal entity through December 31, 2013. At March 31, 2012, the Company’s total cash balance, excluding money market funds, was $5,978,022, and bank deposits amounted to $6,000,241. The difference was due to outstanding checks and deposits. Of the bank deposits, $4,841,083 was not covered by or was in excess of FDIC insurance guaranteed limits. At fiscal year end, the Company’s money market funds invested in government backed securities totaled $1,372,829 and were not subject to deposit insurance.

Equity Securities

The Company determines the appropriate classification of marketable securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates this designation as of each balance sheet date. The Company classifies these securities as either held-to-maturity, trading, or available-for-sale. All marketable securities and restricted investments were classified as available-for-sale securities. The Company classifies its investments as “available for sale” because it does not intend to actively buy and sell for short-term profits. The Company's investments are subject to market risk, primarily interest rate and credit risk. The fair value of investments is determined using observable or quoted market prices for those securities.

-7-


Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses, declines in value judged to be other than temporary and interest on available-for-sale securities are included in net income. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment, including assets under capital lease, are recorded at historical cost. Costs of acquisition of geothermal properties are capitalized in the period of acquisition. Major improvements that significantly increase the useful lives and/or capabilities of the assets are capitalized. A primary factor in determining whether to capitalize construction type costs is the stage of the potential project’s development. Once a project is determined to be commercially viable, all costs directly associated with the development and construction of the project are capitalized. Until that time, all development costs are expensed. A commercially viable project will have, among other factors, a reservoir discovery well or other significant geothermal surface anomaly, a power transmission path that is identified and available, and an electricity off-taker identified. A valid reservoir discovery is generally defined when a test well has been substantially completed that that indicates the presence of a geothermal reservoir that has a high probability of possessing the necessary temperatures, volumes, and flow rates. After a valid discovery has been made, the project enters the development stage. Generally, all costs incurred during the development stage are capitalized and tracked on an individual project basis. If a geothermal project is abandoned, the associated costs that have been capitalized are charged to income in the year of abandonment. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Interest costs incurred during the construction period of defined major projects from debt that is specifically incurred for those projects are capitalized.

Direct labor costs, incurred for specific major projects expected to have long-term benefits will be capitalized. Direct labor costs subject to capitalization include employee salaries, as well as, related payroll taxes and benefits. With respect to the allocation of salaries to projects, salaries are allocated based on the percentage of hours that our key managers, engineers and scientists work on each project and are invoiced to the project each month. These individuals track their time worked at each project. Major projects are, generally, defined as projects expecting to exceed $100,000. Direct labor includes all of the time incurred by employees directly involved with construction and development activities. General and/or indirect management time and time spent evaluating the feasibility of potential projects are expensed when incurred. Employee training time is expensed when incurred.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset. Where appropriate, terms of property rights and revenue contracts can influence the determination of estimated useful lives. Estimated useful lives by major asset categories are summarized as follows:

    Estimated Useful
Asset Categories   Lives in Years
     
Furniture, vehicle and other equipment   3 to 5
Power plant, buildings and improvements   3 to 30
Wells   30
Well pumps and components   5 to 15
Pipelines   30
Transmission lines   30

Intangible Assets

All costs directly associated with the acquisition of geothermal and surface water rights are capitalized as intangible assets. These costs are amortized over their estimated utilization period. There are several factors that influence the estimated utilization periods as well as underlying fair value that include, but are not limited to, the following:

  - contractual expiration terms of the right,
  - contractual terms of an associated revenue contract (i.e., PPA’s),
  - compliance with utilization and other requirements, and
  - hierarchy of other right holders who share the same resource.

Currently, amortization expense is being calculated on a straight-line basis over an estimated utilization period of 30 years for assets placed in service. If an intangible water or geothermal right is forfeited or otherwise lost, the remaining unamortized costs are expensed in the period of forfeiture. An impaired right is reduced to its estimated fair market value in the year the impairment is realized. Costs incurred that extend the term of an intangible right are capitalized and amortized over the new estimated period of utilization.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates its long-term assets annually for impairment and when circumstances/events occur that may impact the fair value of the assets. An impairment loss would be recognized if the carrying amount of a capitalized asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. The most recent assessment was performed based upon financial conditions and assumptions as of March 31, 2012. Management believes that there have not been any circumstances that have warranted the recognition of losses due to the impairment of long-lived assets.

Stock Options Granted to Employees and Non-employees

The Company follows financial accounting standards that require the measurement of the value of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instrument based on the grant-date fair value of the award. For employees, directors and officers, the fair value of the awards are expensed over the vesting period. The current vesting period for all options is eighteen months.

Non-employee stock-based compensation is granted at the Board of Director’s discretion to reward select consultants for exceptional performance. Prior to issuance of the awards, the Company was not under any obligation to issue the stock options. Subsequent to the award, the recipient was not obligated to perform any services. Therefore, the fair value of these options was expensed on the grant date, which was also the measurement date.

Under the fair value recognition provisions, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized as expense over the vesting period. Determining the fair value of share-based awards at the grant date requires judgment. In addition, judgment is also required in estimating the amount of share-based awards that are expected to be forfeited. If actual results differ significantly from these estimates, stock-based compensation expense and our results of operations could be materially impacted.

The Company has adopted a standard that states that if certain conditions are present surrounding the issuance of equity instruments as share based compensation, then circumstances may warrant the recognition of a liability for financial reporting purposes. One such condition is present when the Company issued stock options denominated in a foreign currency (Canadian dollars) to employees. Authors of the standard have reasoned that when a condition is present that creates a financial risk to the recipient in addition to normal market risks (i.e., foreign currency translation risk), then the instrument takes on the characteristics of a liability, rather than an equity item. As the underlying stock options are exercised or are forfeited, then the stock based compensation liability will be reduced. The Company’s financial statements reflect these changes in the consolidated balance sheet. As the value of the options change over the vesting periods, these changes will ultimately be reflected in the amount of expense charged to operations.

-9-


Stock Based Compensation Granted to Employees

The Company recognizes the value of common stock granted to employees and directors over the periods in which the services are received. The value of those services is based upon the estimated fair value of the common stock to be awarded. Estimated fair value is adjusted each reporting period. At the end of each vesting period, estimated fair value is adjusted to fair market value. The adjustment is reflected in the reporting period in which the vesting occurs.

Earnings Per Share

The Company follows financial accounting standards, which provides for calculation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. Although there were common stock equivalents outstanding at March 31, 2012 and 2011, they were not included in the calculation of earnings per share because their inclusion would have been considered anti-dilutive. Total common stock equivalents at March 31, 2012 and 2011 were 97,906,612 and 102,665,193; respectively.

Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade account and other receivables, refundable tax credits, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values, unless otherwise noted.

Refundable tax credit is comprised of Goods and Services Tax/Harmonized Sales Tax (“GST/HST”) which is refundable from the Government of Canada and is included in other current assets.

The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Monetary items are converted into U.S. dollars at the rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Resulting gains and losses are generally included in determining net income for the period in which exchange rates change.

Revenue

Revenue Recognition

Energy Sales
The energy sales revenue is recognized when the power is produced and delivered to the customer under the terms defined in the Power Purchase Agreements.

Renewable Energy Credits (“RECs”)
Revenues from RECs sales are recognized when the Company has met the terms of certain energy sales agreements with a financially capable buyer and has met the applicable governing regulations. The Company earns one REC for each megawatt hour produced from the geothermal power plant.

-10-


At Raft River Energy I LLC, each REC is certified by Western Electric Coordinating Council and sold under a REC Purchase and Sales Agreement to Holy Cross Energy. At San Emidio, the majority of the RECs are owned by our customer and are bundled with energy sales. The remaining minor RECs from the San Emidio plant associated with internal station usage only are certified by the State of Nevada Public Utilities Commission and sold to Barrick Goldstrike Mines Inc. under a stand-alone purchase order.

Revenue Source
All of the Company’s operating revenues (energy sales and energy credit sales) originate from energy production from its interests in geothermal power plants located in the states of Idaho and Nevada.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements. The following pronouncement was deemed applicable to our financial statements.

Presentation of Comprehensive Income
In June 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“Update 2011-05”). Update 2011-05 improves the comparability and consistency of financial reporting of items reported in other comprehensive income between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. Update 2011-05 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011, and should be applied retrospectively. In December 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, (“Update 2011-12”). Update 2011-12 defers the effective date of certain reclassification adjustments out of accumulated other comprehensive income required by Update 2011-05. Update 2011-12 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. Management is still evaluating the impact of these updates, and expects that they may impact the presentation of the statements of financial position, statements of operations, and statements of changes in shareholders equity.

NOTE 3 – RESTRICTED CASH

The Company maintains cash balances that are restricted under Letter of Credit covenants for State and Federal well bonding requirements. These bonds renew on an annual basis. Restricted cash balances and explanations of the nature of the restrictions are summarized as follows:

      March 31,  
State Agency     2012     2011  
Idaho Department of Water Resources, Geothermal Well Bond   $  260,000   $  260,000  
Bureau of Land Management, Geothermal Lease Bond – Gerlach Geothermal     10,000     10,000  
State of Nevada Division of Minerals, Statewide Drilling Bond     50,000     50,000  
Bureau of Land Management, Geothermal Lease Bonds     150,000     150,000  
Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries, Mineral Land and Reclamation Program     325,000     175,000  
U.S. Department of Energy – Construction Loan Bond     2,125,000     -  
               
    $  2,920,000   $  645,000  

-11-


The well bonding requirements ensure that the Company has sufficient financial resources to construct, operate and maintain geothermal wells while safeguarding subsurface, surface and atmospheric resources from unreasonable degradation, and to protect ground water aquifers and surface water sources from contamination. Other future costs of environmental remediation cannot be reasonably estimated and have not been recorded. The construction bond is required by the Loan Guarantee Agreement with the Department of Energy at Neal Hot Springs and will convert to a plant reserve fund upon completion of the plant facility.

NOTE 4 – INVESTMENT IN EQUITY SECURITIES

Investments in equity securities (150,000 shares of a publicly traded geothermal corporation) activities consisted of the following:

    Amount  
Available-for-sale equity securities:      
         Cost basis $  88,515  
                 Net unrealized gains   108,990

NOTE 5 - PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

During the year ended March 31, 2012, the Company continued the development of the Neal Hot Springs, Oregon and San Emidio, Nevada projects. At Neal Hot Springs, construction of the power plant, other facility buildings, cooling towers and transmission lines amounted to approximately $61 million during the current fiscal year. The power plant, cooling towers and other buildings are substantially complete. Current fiscal period well drilling activities at Neal Hot Springs amounted to over $22.5 million. Drilling of wells NHS #4, #9, #11, #12 and #13 were substantially completed as initially planned. Additional drilling is planned that includes, but is not limited to, reentering some of these existing wells. During the current fiscal year at San Emidio, construction costs were incurred that amounted to over $20.4 million for construction of the new power plant and transmission line. The plant and related components have been completed at fiscal year end. The plant is currently being commissioned and has not reached commercial operations. Well construction activities for future power generating facilities at San Emidio amounted to approximately $3 million for the current fiscal year. Effective April 1, 2011, the Company changed consolidation methods for its major subsidiary Raft River Energy I LLC (“RREI”). As a result of the change, the Company now reports all RREI property and equipment on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and reflect a non-controlling interest. As of April 1, 2011, RREI’s property and equipment, net of accumulated deprecation amounted to $45,435,397 ($51,939,812 total cost, less $6,504,415 accumulated depreciation).

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, the Company was engaged on the development of the Neal Hot Springs and San Emidio projects. At Neal Hot Springs, drilling and testing costs for wells #2, #8, #10 and #13 amounted to approximately $7.6 million during the fiscal year. Over $3.5 million in legal, design, permitting and initial construction costs were incurred for the Neal Hot Springs plant site and pipelines. Power plant construction costs, at San Emidio amounted to approximately $12.1 million during the fiscal year.

The old power production plant in San Emidio, Nevada was decommissioned December 12, 2011, to facilitate the change to the newly constructed power plant. The old power plant is considered to be an inactive asset; however, remains as a recognized asset since it has not been disassembled and could be restarted if the new plant is not successful. At March 31, 2012, the net book value of the inactive power plant was $429,746 ($2,275,474 cost, less $1,845,728 accumulated depreciation).

For the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company capitalized interest costs as a component of the Neal Hot Springs and San Emidio projects as follows:

NOTE 6 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In February 2012, water rights on 2,917 acres of leased property in the Granite Creek area located in the State of Nevada were relinquished and removed from intangible assets at their carrying amounts that totaled $548,701. The relinquishment was considered to be a loss that was recognized in the current year ended March 31, 2012.

In April 2010, the Company incurred consulting fees of $600,000 necessary to acquire the geothermal energy rights concession in Guatemala. The concession area is located 14 miles southwest of Guatemala City. The concession contains 24,710 acres (38.6 square miles) of energy rights located in the center of the Aqua and Pacaya twin volcano complex. During the year ended March 31, 2012, $25,000 in fees related to the acquisition of the concession were capitalized.

NOTE 7 – BRIDGE LOAN NOTE PAYABLE

On November 9, 2011, USG Nevada LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, signed a bridge loan agreement with Ares Capital Corporation. The bridge loan provides for the funding necessary for the retirement of the San Emidio plant construction loan held by Benham Constructors LLC. The loan principal cannot exceed $9 million. Interest rate is equal to the LIBOR rate for three month interest periods plus applicable margin. The loan has monetized the Section 1603 ITC cash grant associated with planned commercial operation of the San Emidio power plant. Once the placed in service date has been achieved, an application will be submitted to the United States Department of Treasury for an estimated $10 million ITC cash grant. The cash grant proceeds will be used to repay the bridge loan. At March 31, 2012, the loan balance totaled $7,500,000, and the entire balance was considered to be short term.

NOTE 8 – PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard imposed by accounting standards to allow recognition of such an asset.

At March 31, 2012, the Company had net deferred tax assets calculated at an expected rate, noted in the table below, of approximately $9,498,000 (March 31, 2011 - $6,743,000). As management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset, a valuation allowance equal to the net deferred tax asset was recorded at March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011.

The significant components of the net deferred tax asset calculated with the estimated effective income tax rate at March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011 were as follows:

      March 31,  
      2012     2011  
  Deferred tax assets*:            
         Net operating loss carry forward $  8,728,000   $  6,379,000  
         Stock based compensation   1,302,000     806,000  
               
  Deferred tax liabilities*:            
           Depreciation and amortization   (532,000 )   (442,000 )
  Net deferred income tax asset   9,498,000     6,743,000  
  Deferred tax asset valuation allowance   (9,498,000 )   (6,743,000 )
               
  Net deferred tax asset $  -   $  -  

* - significant components of deferred assets and liabilities are considered to be long-term.

-16-


The Company’s estimated effective income tax rate is summarized as follows:

    For the Years Ended March 31,  
    2012     2011  
U.S. Federal statutory rate   34.0%     34.0%  
Average State income tax, net of federal tax effect   4.2     4.2  
Production tax credits   (2.0 )   (2.0 )
         Net effective tax rate   36.2%     36.2%  

At March 31, 2012, the Company had net income tax operating loss carry forwards of approximately $26,236,000 ($18,628,000 in March 31, 2011), which expire in the years 2023 through 2032. The change in the allowance account from March 31, 2011 to March 31, 2012 was $2,755,000.

At March 31, 2012, Raft River Energy I LLC has a book-to-tax difference of $30.7 million due to the acceleration of intangible drilling costs and depreciation. By contract, 99% percent of this book-to-tax difference has been allocated to the non-controlling interest and would not be available to the consolidated group to offset future tax liabilities

Although Management believes that its estimates are reasonable, no assurance can be given that the final tax outcome of these matters will not be different than that which is reflected in our tax provisions. Ultimately, the actual tax benefits to be realized will be based upon future taxable earnings levels, which are very difficult to predict.

Accounting for Income Tax Uncertainties and Related Matters

The Company may be assessed penalties and interest related to the underpayment of income taxes. Such assessments would be treated as a provision of income tax expense on the financial statements. For the years ended March 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, no income tax expense has been realized as a result of operations and no income tax penalties and interest have been accrued related to uncertain tax positions. The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in the States of Idaho and Oregon. These filings are subject to a three year statute of limitations. The Company’s evaluation of income tax positions included the fiscal years ended March 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, could be subject to agency examinations as of March 31, 2012. No filings are currently under examination. No adjustments have been made to reduce the estimated income tax benefit at fiscal year end. Any valuations relating to these income tax provisions will comply with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

NOTE 9 - CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATION

Effective November 10, 2008, the Company entered into a capital lease obligation for the purchase of a forklift that is payable in monthly payments of $1,193 including interest to Wells Fargo Equipment, Inc. The contract includes a purchase option of $5,345 at the end of the lease term scheduled for November 2012. At March 31, 2012, equipment under capital lease amounted to $53,450 ($32,961 accumulated amortization).

NOTE 10 – CONSTRUCTION NOTES PAYABLE

U.S. Department of Energy
On August 31, 2011, USG Oregon LLC (“USG Oregon”), a subsidiary of the Company, completed the first funding drawdown associated with the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) $96.8 million loan guarantee (the “Loan Guarantee”) to construct its planned 23-megawatt-net power plant at Neal Hot Springs in Eastern Oregon (the “Project”). The U.S. Treasury’s Federal Financing Bank, as lender for the Project, issues payments direct to vendors. Future advances covered by the Loan Guarantee will carry interest at a rate of 0.375% per annum over the U.S. Treasury bill rate of comparable maturities as of the date of each advance. All advances will be made under the Future Advance Promissory Note (“the Note”) dated February 23, 2011. The maximum principal amount of the Note is approximately $93.8 million. No advances may be made under the Note after April 10, 2013. Upon the occurrence and continuation of an event of default under the transaction documents, all amounts payable under the Note may be accelerated. In connection with the Loan Guarantee, the DOE has been granted a security interest in all of the equity interests of USG Oregon, as well as in the assets of USG Oregon, including a mortgage on real property interests relating to the Project site. Loan advances and effective interest rates are details as follows:

      31,630,335        
Accrued interest     327,730        
               
Loan balance at March 31, 2012   $  31,958,065        

The lack of advances from the DOE for the months of February and March of 2012 has resulted in a $28.6 million accounts payable construction balance as of March 31, 2012. The advances resumed in May of 2012.

SAIC Constructors LLC
Effective August 27, 2010, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary (USG Nevada LLC) signed a construction loan agreement with SAIC Constructors LLC (“SAIC”), formerly Benham Constructors LLC. SAIC will be the primary contractor in the relocation and replacement of the existing power plant. The new 8.6 net megawatt power plant is expected to cost approximately $32 million, and is expected to be completed during the 2nd calendar quarter 2012. Upon completion, the USG Nevada LLC will pay the debt in full within 30 days of receipt of the final statement prepared by SAIC. Interest will accrue on outstanding balance at 9.5% per annum. When due, the Company expects to obtain funds to repay the loan balance with a long-term project loan. The loan is non-recourse and is secured by the Project’s assets. Title of all work and materials shall pass to the Company the later of delivery to the Site or upon payment in full. At March 31, 2012, the loan balance totaled $27,037,643, including accrued interest, and the entire balance was considered to be long-term.

NOTE 11 – CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE

August 2011 Convertible Note
On August 5, 2011, the Oregon USG Holdings, LLC (“Oregon Holdings”), a subsidiary of the Company, signed a convertible note agreement with the other equity partner (Enbridge Inc.). The principal of the loan totaled $2,125,000, and will accrue interest at a rate of 4.75% per annum. The loan balance plus accrued interest will convert to an equity interest in Oregon Holdings upon the earliest of a conversion event or April 1, 2014. Conversion events include the loss of federal funding to the Project. The converted balance would increase Enbridge Inc.’s ownership at a ratio of 1.5% for each $1 million contributed. At March 31, 2012, the loan balance totaled $2,125,000. The entire balance was considered to be long-term.

-18-


September 2010 Convertible Note
In September 2010, Oregon Holdings entered into a convertible loan agreement with Enbridge Inc. In April 2011, the U.S. Department of Energy guaranteed project loan was closed which triggered the terms of the conversion agreement. The unsecured convertible promissory note in the amount of $5,000,000 was converted to an equity interest in Oregon Holdings. With the note conversion and the additional capital contribution of $13.8 million, Enbridge, Inc. received a 20% ownership interest in Oregon Holdings.

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option volatility within the Black-Scholes model. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, based upon past experience and future estimates and includes data from the Plan. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected term of the option is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company currently does not foresee the payment of dividends in the near term.

The fair value of the stock options granted was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and is amortized over the vesting period of the underlying options. The assumptions used to calculate the fair value are as follows:

-20-


    For the Year Ended March 31,  
    2012     2011  
Dividend yield   0     0  
Expected volatility   87-91%     89-92%  
Risk free interest rate   0.25-1.21%     0.26-0.78%  
Expected life (years)   3.25     3.17  

Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate and, therefore, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable measure of the fair value of the Company’s stock options.

NOTE 14 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

Current U.S. generally accepted accounting principles establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs 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 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurement).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.

Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally unobservable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value. Level 3 instruments include those that may be more structured or otherwise tailored to the Company’s needs.

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

The following table discloses by level within the fair value hierarchy the Company’s assets and liabilities measured and reported on its Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2012 at fair value on a recurring basis:

    Total     Level 1     Level 2     Level 3  
Assets:                        
Money market accounts $  1,372,829   $  1,372,829   $  -   $  -  
Investment in equity securities   92,497     -     92,497     -  
  $  1,465,326   $  1,372,829   $  92,497   $  -  

As allowed by current financial reporting standards, the Company has elected not to implement fair value recognition and reporting for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis, that is, at least annually.

There were no changes in Level 3 assets measured for the years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

NOTE 15 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

At March 31, 2012 and 2011 the amounts of $2,087 and $2,338; respectively, were payable to directors and officers of the Company for routine expense reimbursement. These amounts are unsecured and due on demand.

One of the two BLM leases has a second royalty commitment to a third party of 4% of gross revenue for power generation and 5% for direct use based on BTUs consumed at a set comparable price of $7.00 per million BTU of natural gas. The private lease has a 10 year primary term and would receive a royalty of 3% gross revenue for the first 10 years and 4% thereafter.

Granite Creek
The Company has three geothermal lease contracts with the BLM for the Granite Creek properties. The lease contracts are for approximately 5,414 acres of land and geothermal water rights located in North Western Nevada. The lease contracts have primary terms of 10 years.

NOTE 18 – CHANGE IN METHOD OF CONSOLIDATION OF SUBSIDIARY

Initially, Raft River Energy I LLC (“RREI”) was a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and was recorded as a fully consolidated subsidiary into the Company’s financial statements. In 2006, Raft River I Holdings (“Holdings”), a subsidiary of the Goldman Sachs Group, acquired an equity interest by providing a significant capital investment in RREI under a tax equity structure. Subsequent accounting activity of RREI was reflected under the equity method on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Based on management’s annual review of the conditions and circumstances surrounding the relationship between the Company and Holdings, it was determined that the Company would no longer use the equity method to reflect the Company’s interest in RREI as of April 1, 2011. The Company will now fully consolidate RREI’s assets, liabilities and operations and recognize a non-controlling interest. When making this determination, Management analyzed whether control had shifted to the Company for accounting purposes, and noted that participation by Holdings is passive. The Board of Managers does not hold regular meetings, does not formally approve the annual operating budgets, and Holdings declines to contribute additional funds even when benefits can be shown. The Company has possession of and operates the facility, makes all day-to-day operating decisions, and contributes additional required capital repair funding as needed. Active participation in the operations of RREI is a primary role of the Company’s operating staff. The most critical point that has changed is the economics of the project due to the zero balance in the Raft River Holding’s tax capital account. Tax deductions associated with an additional $12.1 million equity contribution from the Company accelerated the exhaustion of the Holdings tax capital account to zero sooner than originally anticipated. The Company will be allocated 100% of the tax deductions and operating losses for the tax year 2011 and subsequent years. Since the current structure of RREI was established to allocate significant tax benefits to Holdings, the exhaustion of the Holdings tax capital account to zero demonstrates that the majority of the tax benefits have been monetized. Holdings no longer has any tax capital at risk. The Company is the only partner with tax capital at risk, so future operating decisions will primarily impact the Company.

NOTE 19 – CUMULATIVE CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING ESTIMATE CAPITALIZATION POLICY

During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, it was noted by Company management that certain costs related to development activities incurred for USG Oregon LLC had been expensed in the prior period according to the capitalization policies instituted at that time that have been amended to match policies recommended by the external federal agency that is providing assistance for the Neal Hot Springs, Oregon project. The change in estimate adjustment capitalizes $262,305, which was previously reported as corporate administration, professional fees, and lease and equipment repairs that amounted to $2,498, $162,886, and $96,920; respectively.

NOTE 20- SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company has evaluated events and transactions that have occurred after the balance sheet date through July 13, 2012, which is considered to be the issuance date. The following events were identified for disclosure:

On July 5, 2012, the Board of Directors of U.S. Geothermal Inc. (the “Company”) changed the Company’s fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31, beginning December 31, 2012. The report covering the Company’s transition period ended December 31, 2012 will be filed on Form 10-K.

On June 21, 2012, U.S. Geothermal Inc. announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, USG Nevada LLC, has notified its customer NV Energy that Commercial Operation was achieved by the new 11.75 gross (8.6 net) megawatt Unit I power plant. Electrical energy from the new power plant is now being sold for $89.75 per megawatt hour (“MWH”), subject to a 1% annual escalator, under the terms of a 25-year power purchase agreement. The new power plant is projected to generate an average of approximately 71,500 MWHs of electrical power each year. The new power plant replaces an existing facility that, prior to being removed from service, generated approximately 23,000 MWH annually using the same production and injection wells.

-30-


USG Nevada LLC expects to immediately file for the Section 1603 ITC cash grant of approximately $11 million for the project. Proceeds from the ITC grant will be used to repay an existing $7.5 million bridge loan and the balance will be available for general corporate purposes. U.S. Geothermal now intends to arrange long term financing for the project, but there can be no assurance that long-term financing will be available on terms favorable to U.S. Geothermal, or at all. The project engineering, procurement and construction contractor is working to complete a final list of items required to achieve contract completion under a fixed price contract that includes financial guarantees for the original completion date and power output of the plant.
