The U.S. dollar is the Company’s functional currency; however some transactions involved the Canadian dollar. All references to “dollars” or “$” are to United States dollars and all references to $ CDN are to Canadian dollars.

U.S. Geothermal Inc. (the “Company,” “HTM” or “we” or “us” or words of similar import) is in the renewable “green” energy business. Through its subsidiary, U.S. Geothermal Inc., an Idaho corporation (“Geo-Idaho,” although our references to the Company include and refer to our operations through Geo-Idaho), we are engaged in the acquisition, development and utilization of geothermal resources in the Western Region of the United States of America. Geothermal energy is the natural heat energy stored within the earth’s crust. In some areas of the earth, economic concentrations of heat energy result from a combination of geological conditions that allow water to penetrate into hot rocks at depth, become heated, and then circulate to a near surface environment. In these settings, commercially viable extraction of the geothermal energy and its conversion to electricity become possible and a “geothermal resource” is present.

Development of Business

History

Geo-Idaho was formed as an Idaho corporation in February 2002 to conduct geothermal resource development. On March 5, 2002 Geo-Idaho entered into a letter agreement with the previous owner, pursuant to which Geo-Idaho agreed to acquire all of the real property, personal property and permits that comprised the owner’s interest in the Raft River project located in southeastern Idaho.

-6-

The Company and Geo-Idaho entered into a merger agreement on February 28, 2002, which was amended and restated on November 30, 2003, and closed on December 19, 2003. In accordance with the merger agreement, HTM acquired Geo-Idaho through the merger of Geo-Idaho with a subsidiary, EverGreen Power Inc., an Idaho corporation formed for that purpose. Geo-Idaho is the surviving corporation and the subsidiary through which HTM conducts operations. As part of this acquisition, we changed our name to U.S. Geothermal Inc. Because the former Geo-Idaho shareholders became the majority holders of HTM, the transaction is treated as a “reverse takeover” for accounting purposes.

We currently operate two power plants that include, Raft River Unit I in Idaho (through our joint venture with Raft River I Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of Goldman Sachs) and a plant located in the San Emidio Desert in Nevada. We also have several other properties under development or exploration. Raft River Unit I (“RREI”) commenced commercial operations on January 3, 2008. Raft River Unit I is currently selling an annual average of 8.8 megawatts (“MWs”) of power to Idaho Power Company under a net 13 MW power purchase agreement (“PPA”) which expires in 2032. Management is currently evaluating alternatives to bring the RREI plant operations to its nameplate capacity of 13 MW.

In May 2008, we acquired the geothermal assets, including a 3.6 net MW nameplate generating capacity power plant, from Empire Geothermal Power LLC and Michael B. Stewart, located in Washoe County, Nevada for approximately $16.6 million which includes the Granite Creek geothermal and water rights. The plant currently generates an approximate average net output of 2.5 MWs, which is sold to Sierra Pacific Power Corporation. With the recent downturn in the economy we have been focusing our efforts on maximizing the available leverage to our existing equity investments and pursuing a development plan with lower risks by avoidance of exploration drilling of production wells. As a result we are planning a 35 MW development in two phases with the first phase a “repower” facility at San Emidio which will use the existing geothermal fluid feeding the existing plant to feed a new plant. The plant size is estimated to be 8.2 net MWs and currently is expected to be on line in late 2011. The second phase is anticipated to add 26 MW of power supplied from new production wells to be drilled but requires a significant transmission line upgrade. The second phase is expected to be on line late 2012.

On September 5, 2006, the Company announced the acquisition of property for a geothermal project at Neal Hot Springs, Oregon located in eastern Oregon near the Idaho boarder. The property is 8.5 square miles of geothermal energy and surface water rights. On May 5, 2008, the Company announced that drilling had begun on the first full size production well (“NHS-1”) which was completed on May 23^rd. In February 2009, the Company submitted an application for the project to the U.S. Department of Energy’s (“DOE”) Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy and Advanced Transmission and Distribution Solicitation loan guarantee program under Title XVII of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. On May 26, 2009, the Company announced that it had been selected by DOE to enter into due diligence review on a project loan. Upon meeting requirements, the loan is expected to provide up to 75% of the total estimated construction costs. Construction on the first drill pad was completed in August 2009. In September 2009, the Company began drilling production well number 5 (“NHS-5”), which was substantially completed on October 15, 2009. Also, in September 2009, the Company began a temperature gradient well program to expand the knowledge of the entire geothermal resource. On December 14, the Company announced that it’s wholly owned subsidiary USG Oregon LLC has signed a 25-year power purchase agreement with Idaho Power Company that provides for the sale of up to 25 MWs. The PPA was approved by the Idaho PUC in May of 2010.

Plan of Operations

Our management examines different factors when assessing potential acquisitions or projects at different stages of development, such as the internal rate of return of the investment, technical and geological matters and other relevant business considerations. We evaluate our operating projects based on revenues and expenses, and our projects under development, based on costs attributable to each project.

We have exploration and development properties located in:

- Raft River, Idaho;

- Neal Hot Springs, Oregon;

- San Emidio, Nevada;

- Gerlach, Nevada;

- Granite Creak, Nevada; and,

- Republic of Guatemala.

Our business strategy is to identify, evaluate, acquire, develop and operate geothermal assets and resources economically, safely and efficiently. We intend to execute this strategy in several steps outlined below:

• Leverage Management Team Capabilities and Experience – Our strategy is focused on the identification and acquisition of resources that can be developed in a cost-effective manner to produce attractive returns. In particular, we seek to acquire projects that have already undergone geothermal resource discovery. In addition, we intend to operate and manage construction of the projects, while using internal personnel and third-party contractors to efficiently and cost-effectively develop those resources. We believe that we have the strategic personnel in place to determine which resources provide the greatest opportunity for efficient development and operation. We have developed relationships and employed personnel that will allow us to develop and utilize geothermal resources as efficiently as possible.

• Develop Our Pipeline of Quality Projects – Our project pipeline currently consists of several projects that we believe are aligned with our growth strategy. These projects have consulting reports from various industry experts supporting our belief in those projects’ potential, and we have started PPA negotiations for power off-take with counterparties for some of these growth opportunities. If realized, our identified project pipeline will greatly expand our renewable power generation capacity.

• Utilize Production Tax Credits, Investment Tax Credits and Other Incentives – Although geothermal power production can be cost competitive with fossil fuel power generating facilities without government subsidies in some cases, production tax credits (“PTC”) and Investment Tax Credits (“ITC”) available to geothermal power producers enhance the project economics and attract capital investment. For the Raft River Unit I project, we partnered with Goldman Sachs in order to fully utilize production tax credits available to the joint venture. Our strategy going forward is to structure project ownership to be the primary beneficiary of project economics. Recent legislation enacted as part of the stimulus funding has provided an election to take 30% ITC in lieu of the PTC for certain qualified investments being initiated before the end of 2010 and being placed in service before the end of 2013. This ITC election may be available to us at our San Emidio and Neal Hot Springs projects.

-8-

• Pursue Acquisition Strategy – The geothermal market, particularly in the United States, is fragmented and characterized by a few large players and a number of smaller ones. Geothermal exploration and development is costly, technically challenging and requires long lead times before a project will produce revenue. We believe that geothermal technical and managerial talent is limited in the industry and that access to capital to develop projects will not be equally available to all participants. As a result, we believe that there will be opportunities in the future to pursue acquisitions of geothermal projects and/or geothermal development companies with attractive project pipelines.

• Evaluate Other Potential Revenue Streams from Geothermal Resources – In addition to electricity generation, we will evaluate additional applications for our geothermal resources including industrial, agriculture, and aquaculture purposes. These uses generally constitute lower temperature applications where, after driving a turbine generator, residual hot water can be cycled for secondary processes before being returned to the geothermal reservoir by injection wells, which can provide incremental revenue streams. We will evaluate the optimal use for each geothermal resource and determine whether selling heat for industrial purposes or generating and subsequently selling power to a grid will generate the highest return on the asset.

Cash Requirements

We believe our cash and liquid investments at March 31, 2010 are adequate to fund our general operating activities through March 31, 2011 including limited drilling at Neal Hot Springs and general development support activities at San Emidio. Additional funding will be needed to finance the expansion of production volumes at Raft River and the development of the San Emidio, Nevada and Neal Hot Springs, Oregon projects. In addition to government loans and grants discussed below, we anticipate that the additional funding may be raised through the issuance of equity and/or through the sale of ownership interest in tax credits and benefits.

The current financial credit crisis is not anticipated to impact the ability of our customers, Idaho Power Company and Sierra Pacific Power, to pay for their power. This power is sold under long-term contracts at fixed prices to large utilities. Projections for 2010 indicate that both projects, Raft River and San Emidio, will generate positive cash flows to the Company. However, the current status of the credit and equity markets could delay our project development activities while the Company seeks to obtain economic credit terms or a favorable equity market price to further the drilling and construction activities. The Company continues discussions with potential investors to evaluate alternatives for funding at the corporate and project levels. We are also pursuing available DOE loans and guarantees in order to reduce interest costs for any debt instruments the Company may require. At the current market price for the Company’s stock, we do not anticipate that additional funding will result from the exercise of current stock options or warrants in the near future. In these difficult financial times, the Company has also implemented procedures to conserve cash, reduce costs and maximize revenue. At the corporate level, we have cancelled non-essential consulting contracts and are reducing all non-critical expenditures. At the project level, Raft River and San Emidio are increasing efforts to reduce operating costs and look for additional cost savings.

On March 16, 2010, the Company closed a private placement of securities issued pursuant to a securities purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") entered into with several institutional investors, pursuant to which the Company issued 8,209,519 shares of common stock at a price of $1.05 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $8.6 million (the "Private Placement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Private Placement, each investor was also issued a common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant") exercisable for 50% of the number of shares of common stock purchased by the investor. The Company paid commissions to agents in connection with the Private Placement in the amount of approximately $516,000 and issued warrants to purchase up to 246,285 shares of common stock. The net proceeds of the offering (approximately $8.0 million) will be used by the Company to further develop its Neal Hot Springs geothermal project and for general working capital purposes.

On October 30, 2009, the Company was awarded $3.77 million in Recovery Act funding for the exploration and development of its San Emidio geothermal power project using advanced geophysical exploration techniques. This award was categorized under the “Innovative Exploration and Drilling Projects” section of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The project at San Emidio will apply innovative, seismic and satellite imagery techniques along with state-of-the-art structural modeling, to locate large aperture fractures that represent high-productivity geothermal drilling targets.

On August 17, 2009, the Company completed a private placement of 8,100,000 Subscription Receipts (“Receipt”) at $1.35 CDN per Receipt for aggregate gross proceeds of CDN $10,935,000. Each Receipt was exchanged on December 17, 2009 for one share of common stock of the Company and one half of one common stock purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one additional share of common stock of the Company for $1.75 for 24 months from closing. The placement agents have been paid an aggregate cash fee of CDN $656,100, representing 6% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the offering, and have been issued compensation options, exercisable for 24 months, entitling the placement agents to purchase up to 243,000 shares of common stock of the Company at US$1.22. The proceeds were used to drill up to three production size wells at Neal Hot Springs to increase production capacity to 22 MW and allow a 30-day flow test to verify the well reservoir capacity. Completion of drilling is a condition precedent to the funding from the DOE loan program, if our application is approved.

-10-

On February 26, 2009 U.S. Geothermal submitted an application for the Neal Hot Springs project to the DOE’s Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy and Advanced Transmission and Distribution Solicitation loan guarantee program under Title XVII of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. The Company was notified that its project application is complete, the power plant technology choice qualifies as new or improved under the program, and the project has been selected to proceed in the project loan process. Although we have not yet received approval, the DOE guaranteed loan is expected to provide up to 75% of the $119 million estimated capital cost of Stage I up to a maximum loan amount of $102.2 million. The capital cost has increased to $119 million from prior estimates of $106 million due to costs of labor, updated vendor pricing and construction materials, project loan costs and contingencies. Detailed design of a binary cycle power plant utilizing significantly improved technology is currently in progress with construction expected to begin in mid 2010. The new plant, designed to deliver approximately 22 MW of power net to the grid is scheduled to begin commercial operations in early 2012. The DOE guaranteed loan is anticipated to be a combined construction and term loan and provide the project with a low cost annual interest rate. We expect that we will be required to drill up to 8 additional wells as a condition precedent to drawing on the DOE guaranteed loan, if it is approved.

Material Acquisitions/Development

Raft River, Idaho

Raft River Energy Unit I is located in Idaho and has a 13 net MW capacity geothermal power plant in operation.

In early January 2009, production well RRG-7 underwent a temperature decline that has reduced the inlet fluid temperature to the power plant over the past year by approximately 10 degrees Fahrenheit. At the same time of the temperature change, fluid flow increased. Power generation has been reduced by an estimated 1 MW due to the lower temperature fluid. It was determined that the cement in a lap joint had failed so a mechanical packer was installed to reduce the cold water inflow, but was unsuccessful. A remediation program is planned that will “squeeze” cement into the lap joint and plug off the cold water flow to return the well temperature and increase power plant generation.

Raft River Unit I operated through the year at 95.2 percent availability which includes a scheduled maintenance outage of 12 days in April that was extended to replace a turbine damaged during construction. Raft River generated in a range of 7.7 to 10.1 net MWs during the twelve month period ended March 31, 2010 averaging 8.8 MWs. The reduction in output for the period compared to the planned generation was due to the loss of temperature from production well RRG-7.

The joint venture partners are evaluating a recovery plan that includes repairing the lap joint RRG-7, drilling a new production leg on one or two existing production wells and drilling a new injection well. We anticipate completing the repair of well RRG-7 in the first half of the year before a decision is made on the remainder of the recovery plan.

As shown in the table below, Raft River Unit II is estimated to cost approximately $134 million and Raft River Unit III is anticipated to cost approximately $166 million, 75% of which we believe may be funded by loans, with the remainder funded through equity financing. Provided equity funding is available to the project, Raft River Unit II is anticipated to begin construction in the fourth calendar quarter of 2010 with commercial operations commencing in the fourth calendar quarter of 2013. Raft River Unit III is anticipated to begin construction in the first calendar quarter of 2014 with commercial operations commencing in the second calendar quarter of 2015.

San Emidio, Nevada

The San Emidio geothermal power plant has been producing power since 1987 and sells electricity to Sierra Pacific Power Corporation under an existing power purchase agreement that extends through 2017. Deeper wells with higher temperatures were drilled in 1994 to supply the plant after output declined due to cooling of the original, shallow production wells. The current configuration of the plant consists of four 1.2 gross MW Ormat Energy Converters (“OEC”), five production wells (two wells in use and three on stand by), and four injection wells (three wells in use and one on standby). A cooling tower was added in 1998 to improve summer peak power generation. Power sales from the San Emidio plant for the last fiscal year averaged 2.2 MWs.

Two System Feasibility Studies were initiated in July 2008 with Sierra Pacific Power Corporation to begin the FERC mandated transmission study process for the development of the San Emidio resource. The studies are examining two levels of power generation, 15 MWs and 45 MWs, several transmission routes and the costs associated with each level of generation. The System Impact Study for the 15 MW Phase I repower, the second phase of interconnection study process, was completed in July and confirmed that the existing transmission system was able to handle up to 15 MWs. The third phase study, the Interconnection Facilities Study for the 15 MW option, was completed in October. A draft interconnection agreement is expected from Sierra Pacific Power before the end of the second calendar quarter of 2010.

Subsequent to the end of the fiscal year, the System Impact Study for the 45 MW option was received in April. The third phase study for the 45 MW option, the Interconnection Facilities Study, will be contracted during the second calendar quarter and is expected to be completed before year end.

On October 30, 2009, the Company was awarded $3.77 million in Recovery Act funding for the exploration and development of its San Emidio geothermal power project using advanced geophysical exploration techniques. This award was categorized under the “Innovative Exploration and Drilling Projects” section of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The project at San Emidio will apply innovative, seismic and satellite imagery techniques along with state-of-the-art structural modeling, to locate large aperture factures that represent high-productivity geothermal drilling targets. Initial geologic mapping under the program has been initiated and the seismic team has been contracted.

The San Emidio expansion will take place in two phases. Phase I will be a repower and Phase II will be the expansion. Phase I will utilize the existing production and injection wells with a new, more efficient power plant. As shown in the table below, the repower is anticipated to cost approximately $30 million and the expansion is anticipated to cost $127 million, 75% of which we believe may be funded by a Department of Energy loan guarantee, with the remainder funded through equity financing. The Phase I repower is anticipated to begin construction in the third calendar quarter of 2010 with commercial operations commencing in the fourth calendar quarter of 2011 or first calendar quarter of 2012. The Phase II expansion is anticipated to begin construction in the second calendar quarter of 2010 with commercial operations commencing in the third calendar quarter of 2012. The Company hopes to utilize Investment Tax Credits in connection with both the repower and the expansion. Both phases will require an amendment to the Sierra Pacific Power Purchase Agreement.

Neal Hot Springs, Oregon

Neal Hot Springs is a promising geothermal resource located in Eastern Oregon.

On February 26, 2009 U.S. Geothermal submitted an application for the Neal Hot Springs project to the DOE’s Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy and Advanced Transmission and Distribution Solicitation loan guarantee program under Title XVII of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. The Company was notified that its project application is complete, the power plant technology choice qualifies as new or improved under the program, and the project has been selected to proceed in the project loan process.

Although we have not yet received approval, the DOE guaranteed loan is expected to provide up to 75% of the $119 million estimated capital cost of Stage I up to a maximum loan amount of $102.2 million. The capital cost has increased to $119 million from prior estimates of $106 million due to costs of labor, updated vendor pricing and construction materials, loan costs and contingencies. Detailed design of a binary cycle power plant utilizing significantly improved technology is currently in progress with construction expected to begin in mid 2010. The new plant, designed to deliver approximately 22 MWs of power net to the grid is scheduled to begin commercial operations in early 2012. The DOE guaranteed loan is anticipated to be a combined construction and term loan and provide the project with a low cost annual interest rate. We expect that we will be required to drill up to 8 additional wells as a condition precedent to drawing on the DOE guaranteed loan.

At our Neal Hot Springs project, an infill geophysical program was carried out to increase the density of data to highlight suspected geologic targets and structures. Applications for four additional exploration wells to further delineate the geothermal resource with production and injection targets were approved by the state of Oregon on September 11, 2009 and drilling of the second production well, NHS-5, began on September 18, 2009. October 15, 2009, the Company successfully completed well NHS-5, the second full size production well at the Neal Hot Springs project located in eastern Oregon. NHS-5 encountered several lost circulation zones within the targeted horizon and intercepted a large aperture fracture at 2,796 feet resulting in a total loss of circulation. The well was completed to a depth of 2,896 feet. An initial 16 hour flow test completed using air lift produced fluid at a rate of 1,500 gallons per minute and resulted in a down hole flowing temperature of 286º F (141º C).

The reservoir-hosting fracture zone intersected in NHS-5 is 509 feet deeper in the geologic system than the large producing fracture intersected by NHS-1 which is located approximately 600 feet to the southeast. Both wells were instrumented with pressure and temperature equipment during the flow test. Geologic information and flow data from the drilling and flow test has been incorporated into the ongoing development of a reservoir model of the Neal Hot Springs geothermal system.

In addition to the drilling program for production-sized wells, the company has continued a temperature gradient (“TG”) drilling program utilizing a small diameter drill hole. Eleven TG holes ranging in depth from 500 to 1,060 feet have been completed, and are providing valuable temperature gradient data for the overall area that hosts the Neal Hot Springs reservoir. Currently, several TG holes are being deepened and another three to five new TG holes will be drilled with a number of the holes planned to reach a depth of 2,000 feet as the size of the geothermal anomaly is defined.

The Company received the Conditional Use Permit from the Malheur County Planning Commission for construction of its proposed 22 net MW power plant at Neal Hot Springs in eastern Oregon. The Conditional Use Permit received unanimous approval at a September 24, 2009 Planning Commission meeting and was issued on October 28, 2009. All of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) mandated transmission studies have been completed by Idaho Power Company. An interconnection agreement was signed with the Idaho Power Company in February 2009. Private right-of-ways for the transmission line have been acquired, the line route is surveyed and the final engineering design has reached approximately 99% completion.

The power purchase agreement (“PPA”) for the project was signed on December 11, 2009 with the Idaho Power Company. The PPA has a 25 year term with a starting price of $96 per MW-hour and escalates at a set percentage annually. Idaho Power Company submitted the PPA to the Idaho Public Utilities Commission on December 28, 2009. IPUC authorized a Modified Procedure for review of the PPA on March 17, 2010 which calls for a 45 day public comment period and 10 day reply period. Subsequent to the end of the year, approval of the PPA by the IPUC was received on May 20, 2010.

The total development cost of Neal Hot Springs Stage II is anticipated to be $154 million. Construction is anticipated to begin in the third quarter of 2011 with commercial operations commencing in the third quarter of 2013.

Gerlach, Nevada

An EA has been completed and a drill site has been permitted on one of the BLM leases. Planning is underway to drill a 2,000 foot temperature gradient well and a shallow, 300-700 foot deep exploration/production well in 2010. Past drilling has indicated the presence of a shallow 260 to 265° F resource on the property in addition to a possible higher temperature, deep resource.

Granite Creek, Nevada

The Granite Creek assets are comprised of three BLM geothermal leases totaling approximately 5,414 acres (8.5 square miles) located about 6 miles north of Gerlach, Nevada along a geologic structure known to host geothermal features including the Great Boiling Spring and the Fly Ranch Geyser. A first stage gravity geophysical program was completed in the third quarter of 2008 and will be used to evaluate the resource potential, and help determine where to drill temperature-gradient exploration wells.

Republic of Guatemala

Subsequent to the end of the year, the Company announced on April 15 that it was successful in acquiring a geothermal concession in the Republic of Guatemala. The concession consists of 24,710 acres (100 square kilometers) and is located 14 miles southwest of Guatemala City, the capital. Nine wells with depths ranging from 560 to 2,000 feet (170 to 610 meters) were drilled in the El Ceibillo resource area within the concession area during the l990s. Six of the wells have measured reservoir temperatures in the range of 365 to 400°F (185 to 204°C). Fluid sample analysis and the mineralogy associated with drill cuttings suggest the existence of a deeper, higher permeability reservoir with temperature potential of 410 to 446°F (210 to 230°C).

Preliminary reservoir, transmission and environmental studies have been completed for the project. Four additional prospects containing fumaroles and hot springs are located within the concession area. Planning is underway for deepening and detailed testing of the El Ceibillo wells to quantify their electrical generating capacity and to explore the other prospective areas.

Employees

At March 31, 2010, the Company had 33 full-time and one part time employee (12 administrative and project development, and 22 field and plant operations). The Company continuously considers acquisition opportunities, and if the Company is successful in making acquisitions, additional management and administrative staff may be added.

The Company did not experience any labor disputes or labor stoppages during the current fiscal year.

Principal Products

The principal product is based upon activities related to the production of electrical power from the utilization of the Company’s geothermal resources. The primary product will be the direct sale of power generated by our interests in our geothermal power plants. Currently our principal revenues consist of energy sales, consulting and management fees, and lease income. All power plants currently under exploration or development are sites located in the Western Region of the United States of America. The Company was granted a geothermal energy rights concession in the Republic of Guatemala located in Central America in April of 2010. Development options are currently being explored to determine how to maximize this opportunity.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

-16-

Geothermal energy is natural heat energy stored within the Earth’s crust at economically accessible depth. In some areas of the Earth, economic concentrations of heat energy result from a combination of geological conditions that allow water to penetrate into hot rocks at depth, become heated, and then circulate to a near surface environment. In these settings, commercially viable extraction of the geothermal energy and its conversion to electricity become possible and a “geothermal resource” is present.

There are four major components (or factors) to a geothermal resource:

1.	Heat source and temperature – The economic viability of a geothermal resource is related to the amount of heat generated. The higher the temperature, the more valuable the geothermal resource.
2.	Fluid – A geothermal resource is commercially viable only when the system contains water and/or steam as a medium to transfer the heat energy to the surface.
3.	Permeability – The fluid present underground must be able to move. In general, significant porosity and permeability within the rock formation are needed to create a viable reservoir.
4.	Depth – The cost of development increases with depth, as do resource temperatures. The proximity of the reservoir to the surface is therefore a key factor in the economic valuation of a geothermal resource.

Electrical power is directly produced through the utilization of geothermal resources; however, these resources are not a direct component of the final product.

Raft River Energy Unit I, located in Raft River, Idaho is a proven geothermal resource, and has a 13 net MW capacity geothermal power plant in operation. San Emidio, Nevada is a proven geothermal resource, and has a 3.6 net MW capacity geothermal plant in operation. Unless major geological changes occur that impact the geothermal reservoirs, the condition of the existing resources is expected to remain consistent over time. Each power plant constructed will have an impact on the temperature and pressure of the tapped reservoir. The extent of this impact and the results of future drilling exploration to determine the actual extent of the reservoir will be a limiting factor on the number of plants that can be constructed at a particular reservoir.

Significant Patents, Licenses, Permits, Etc.

Raft River. Five significant permits are in place for the Raft River project and are necessary for continued operations:

1.	Geothermal well permits for production and injection wells issued by the Idaho Department of Water Resources.
2.	A Conditional Use Permit for the first two power plants was issued by the Cassia County Planning and Zoning Commission on April 21, 2005.
3.	The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality issued the Air Quality Permit to Construct on May 26, 2006.

-17-

4. A Wastewater Reuse Permit issued by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality on February 23, 2007.

San Emidio. The San Emidio project has five significant permits in place necessary for continued operations:

1.	Geothermal well permits for production and injection wells issued by the Nevada Division of Minerals.
2.	A Special Use Permit issued by the Washoe County Board of Commissioners on July 1, 1987.
3.	An Air Quality Permit to Operate from Washoe County renewed on January 1, 2008.
4.	A Surface Discharge Permit from Nevada Division of Environmental Protection issued on June 11, 2001.
5.	An Underground Injection Permit from Nevada Division of Environmental Protection issued on August 18, 2000.

Seasonality of Business

The Company and its major subsidiary (RREI) have been producing energy revenues under the terms of two PPAs. These contracts specify favorable rate periods and levels of production. The San Emidio Nevada plant’s contractual terms provide for premium rates in the months from September to April. The RREI contract pays favorable rates in the months of July/August and November/December. Energy production can be influenced by the seasonal temperatures. Generally, the Company’s binary geothermal plants can operate more efficiently in cooler temperatures. Cooler temperatures facilitate the cooling process of the secondary fluid that is used to power the turbines. Drilling and other construction activities could be negatively impacted by inclement weather that can occur, primarily, during the winter months.

Industry Practices/Needs for Working Capital

The Company is heavily involved in development operations; therefore high levels of working capital are committed, either directly or indirectly to the construction efforts. After a plant becomes commercially operational, the needs of working capital are expected to be low. This assumption is primarily based upon the projected revenues and operational expenses, as well as the actual operating results of the Raft River Energy I, LLC that became operational January 3, 2008. The Company is expecting to be significantly involved in development activities for the next 5 to 10 years.

Dependence on Few a Customers

Ultimately, the market for electrical power is vast; however, the numbers of entities that can physically, logistically and economically purchase the commodity in large quantities in our area of operations are limited. The Company currently collects revenues from two major sources that include the Idaho Power Company (through the Company’s major subsidiary Raft River Energy Unit I) and Sierra Pacific Power Company. Even at planned levels of operation, it is expected that the Company and its interests will have a small number of direct customers that may amount to less than 4 or 5.

Competitive Conditions

Although the market for different forms of energy is large and dominated by very powerful players, we perceive our industrial competition to be independent power producers and in particular those producers who provide “green” renewable power. Our definition of green power is electricity derived from a source that does not pollute the air, water or earth. Sources of green power, in addition to geothermal, include wind, solar, biomass and run-of-the river hydroelectric. A number of states have instituted renewable portfolio standards (“RPS”) that require utilities to purchase a minimum percentage of their power from renewable sources. For example, RPS statutes in California and Nevada require 20% renewable. On November 17, 2008, the Governor of California signed executive order which mandated a RPS of 33% by 2020 which sits in addition to the 20% order. According to the Department of Energy’s Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy department, utilities in 34 states nationwide are providing their customers with the opportunity to purchase green, renewable power through premium pricing programs. As a result, we believe green power is an important sub-market in the broader electric market, in which many power purchasers are increasing or committing to increase their investments. Accordingly, the conventional energy producers do not provide direct competition.

In the Pacific Northwest there is currently only one geothermal facility (Raft River Energy Unit I). There are a number of wind farms, as well as biomass and run-of-the river hydroelectric facilities. However, the Company believes that the combination of greater reliability and baseload generation from geothermal, access to infrastructure for deliverability, and a low "full life" cost will allow it to successfully compete for long term power purchase agreements.

Factors that can influence the overall market for our product include some of the following:

• number of market participants buying and selling electricity;
• availability and cost of transmission;
• amount of electricity normally available in the market;
• fluctuations in electricity supply due to planned and unplanned outages of competitors’ generators;
• fluctuations in electricity demand due to weather and other factors;
• cost of fuel used by generators, which could be impacted by efficiency of generation technology and fluctuations in fuel supply;
• environmental regulations that impact us and our competitors;
• availability of production tax credits and other benefits allowed by tax law;
• relative ease or difficulty of developing and constructing new facilities; and

-19-

• credit worthiness and risk associated with buyers.

Environmental Compliance

The Raft River project is in compliance with all environmental permits and water quality monitoring requirements. The most significant investment in environmental compliance in terms of time and cost was associated with water quality monitoring which had been required on a weekly basis. The Company’s second petition to the Idaho Department of Water Resources (IDWR) to reduce the monitoring obligations was accepted. IDWR has concurred that there is no impact from the Company’s operations on adjacent aquifers.

Since operations have been initiated, key environmental reports include:

1)	Monthly production and injection reports which are filed with the IDWR;
2)	Quarterly ground water monitoring reports which are filed with IDWR;
3)	Annual land application and blowdown water quality reports filed with the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality.
4)	Annual Tier II reporting filed with the Idaho Bureau of Homeland Security, Local Emergency Planning Committee, and the local fire department.

The Raft River project is ideally suited in a rural agricultural area. The nearest full time resident is located over one mile south of the plant. The nearest part time resident is located approximately one half mile north of the plant. Additionally, there are no unique plant or animal communities in the area and no unique cultural or environmental constraints.

Financial Information about Geographic Areas

As described in detail in the Property section, the Company’s interest in the Raft River Unit I power plant, located in the southeastern part of the State of Idaho, became operational on January 3, 2008. Similar plants are in the planning stages at the same location as well as locations in Nevada and Oregon. The Company acquired a 3.6 MW geothermal plant and geothermal rights in San Emidio, Nevada. Land acquisitions and rights have been obtained to explore the development and construction of power plants in the southeastern part of the State of Oregon. Substantial drilling and testing activities have occurred during the last fiscal year. In April of 2010, the Company was granted a geothermal energy rights concession in the Republic of Guatemala located in Central America. Significant project strategies have just begun.

The Company’s revenues for the three most recent fiscal years ended March 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 were $2,579,152, $2,336,202, and $190,721; respectively. All of these revenues were attributable to customers in the Northwest of the United States.

Governmental Approvals and Regulation

U.S. Geothermal Inc. is subject to federal and state regulation in respect of the production, sale and distribution of electricity. Federal legislation includes the Energy Policy Act of 2005, the Federal Power Act, and the Energy Policy Act of 1992. HTM is defined as an independent power producer under the rules and regulations of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”). As an independent power producer, HTM’s operations are supported by the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act (“PURPA”) which encourages alternative energy sources such as geothermal, wind, biomass, solar and cogeneration. The State of Idaho also regulates electricity through the Idaho Public Utility Commission (“IPUC”). Regulated utilities have the exclusive right to distribute and sell electricity within their service area. They may purchase electricity in the wholesale market from independent producers like HTM. The IPUC, has the authority to establish rules and regulations governing the sale of electricity generated from alternative energy sources. Regulated utilities are required to purchase electricity on an avoided cost basis from renewable energy facilities, or they may acquire purchased power through bids or negotiated procedures.

On May 8, 2006, HTM submitted proposals to Idaho Power in response to their “Request for Proposal for Geothermal Power.” HTM was the preferred respondent and entered power purchase contract negotiations with Idaho Power. The Raft River Unit I Geothermal Power Plant started up under a contract based on avoided costs which limited the output of the plant to 10 average MWs per month. Through subsequent contract negotiations, HTM reduced the long-term price of power to Idaho Power, and is now allowed to deliver as much power in any month as the plant is capable of producing, up to a maximum hourly output of approximately 16 MWs. The annual average output capacity is on the order of 13 MWs.

Because carbon regulation is anticipated to increase the cost of power sourced from coal and because there are limited opportunities to purchase baseload geothermal power, HTM has found that utilities across the Western United States are eager to discuss PPAs with HTM.

On February 28, 2008, U.S. Geothermal Inc. and Eugene Water and Electric Board (“EWEB”), from Eugene, Oregon signed a power purchase agreement (“PPA”) for the planned Unit II power plant at Raft River. The PPA allows for variable electrical output up to a maximum of 16 MW with a term of 25 years. The PPA is subject to successful drilling and resource development at Raft River. The power will be delivered to the Bonneville Power Agency (“BPA”) customer load in Idaho.

The combined sales from the Idaho Power Raft River Unit I contract and the EWEB Unit II contract is anticipated to be 26 MW from two plants. Before the burgeoning interest in geothermal power, the Company had originally planned 30 MWs from three plants. The construction of only two larger plants will result in substantial capital and operating cost savings through improved economy of scale.

-21-

In addition to the EWEB agreement, the strong regional interest in geothermal power has resulted in numerous utilities inquiring with HTM to purchase the electrical power output of Unit III at Raft River, for the output of the Neal Hot Springs power plants, and for any expanded output at the company’s San Emidio, NV project. We anticipate that future plants will be developed under PPAs that do not restrict the output of the project.

The most recent such contract was a 25 MW (maximum) contract signed with Idaho Power on December 11, 2009 for the full output of the Neal Hot Springs development in Oregon. The contract has received approval from the Idaho PUC. The levelized cost of power for the project is $117.55/MWh for 25 years after the plant startup.

HTM will be required to obtain various federal, state and county approvals for construction of future geothermal facilities. These approvals are issued by entities such as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, State (NV, OR, ID) Departments of Environmental Quality, Water Resources, State Historic Preservation Offices, the applicable land management agency, and County Commissioners.

For project development in Idaho and Oregon, David Evans & Associates of Boise, Idaho has provided consulting and engineering services for transmission and interconnection issues. Centra Consulting, Inc. of Boise, Idaho has been retained to assist with State of Idaho air quality and cooling water reuse permitting, and we have retained various environmental engineering firms and regulatory consultants to advise and assist HTM with regard to siting, design and regulatory compliance.

For project development in Nevada, U.S. Geothermal is retaining similar consulting firms to supplement in-house staff.

Environmental Credits

In the past several years, there has been increased demand for energy generated from geothermal resources in the United States as production costs for electricity generated from geothermal resources have become competitive relative to fossil fuel generation. This is partly due to newly enacted legislative and regulatory incentives, such as production tax credits and state renewable portfolio standards. State renewable portfolio standards laws require that an increasing percentage of the electricity supplied by electric utility companies operating in states with such standards will be derived from renewable energy resources until certain pre-established goals are met. We expect increasing demand for energy generated from geothermal and other renewable resources in the United States as additional states adopt or extend renewable portfolio standards.

As a “green” power producer, environmental-related credits, such as renewable energy credits or carbon credits, are also available for sale to power companies (to allow them to meet their “green” power requirements) or to businesses which produce carbon based pollution. In all of U.S. Geothermal Inc.’s project, these credits have been sold separately, or bundled with the electricity to provide an additional source of revenue.

We expect the following key incentives to influence our results of operation:

-22-

Production Tax Credits and Investment Tax Credits. Production tax credits provide project owners with a federal tax credit for the first ten years of plant operation. At present, unless extended, facilities constructed after December 31, 2014 will not be eligible to use this production tax credit. The federal production tax credit available for geothermal energy in 2009 was 2.1 cents per kilowatt-hour. For projects under construction before the end of 2010 and online before the end of 2013, a project can elect to take a 30% investment tax credit in lieu of the PTC. The ITC may be converted into a cash grant within the first 60 days of operation of the plant.

Renewable Energy Credits. Renewable Energy Certificates, or RECs, are tradable environmental commodities that represent proof that 1 MW-hour of electricity was generated from an eligible renewable energy resource. A renewable energy provider is credited with one REC for every 1,000 kilowatt-hours or 1 MW-hour of electricity it produces. The electrical energy is fed into the electrical grid and the accompanying REC can either be delivered to the purchaser of the power (“bundled”) or can be sold on the open market providing the renewable energy producer with an additional source of income.

On July 29, 2006, U.S. Geothermal, Inc. signed a $4.6 million renewable energy credits purchase and sales agreement with Holy Cross Energy, a Colorado cooperative electric association. The agreement is capped at 87,600 RECs (10 MWs average over the year). Holy Cross Energy began purchasing the renewable energy credits associated with the Raft River Unit I power production on October 2007, and is expected to continue purchasing through 2017. Under the revised RRU1 agreement with Idaho Power, keeps all RECs above 87,600 RECs per year. In addition, we retain 49% of the renewable energy credits associated with power production from Raft River Unit I after 2017 and Idaho Power retains the other 51%. We expect to receive a majority of the annual revenue from the ten-year renewable energy credits sales arrangement with Holy Cross Energy.

The power purchase agreements for the existing San Emidio power plant, the planned Raft River Unit II facility, and the planned Neal Hot Springs facility are all for bundled power and RECs. Therefore, under these contracts all RECs are delivered with the net power delivered to the utility.

Regulatory Update

In January 2009, Congress extended the federal PTC for renewable energy power plants for all projects initiating commercial production prior to December 31, 2013. The PTC enhances the annual revenues of the projects by about 25 percent per year for the first 10 years. Additionally, Congress provided that for power plants that begin construction before the end of 2010, the Company may elect to use the 30% ITC in lieu of the PTC. Application for the cash ITC payment may be made 60 days after the start of commercial generation and would be paid directly from the Department of Treasury.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

General Business Risks

Our future performance depends on our ability to establish that the geothermal resource is economically sustainable. Geothermal resource exploration and development involves a high degree of risk. The recovery of the amounts shown for geothermal properties and related deferred costs on our financial statements, as well as the execution of our business plan generally, is dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable and sustainable reserves. Expansion of the production of power from our interests is not certain and depends on successful drilling and discovery of additional geothermal hydrothermal resources in quantities and containing sufficient heat necessary to economically fuel future plants.

We have a need for substantial additional financing and will have to significantly delay, curtail or cease operations if we are unable to secure such financing. The Company requires substantial additional financing to fund the cost of continued development of the Neal Hot Springs (Oregon), San Emidio, Gerlach, Guatemala and Granite Creek Ranch (Nevada) projects. Also, the Company requires funds for other operating activities, and to finance the growth of our business, including the construction and commissioning of power generation facilities. We may not be able to obtain the needed funds on terms acceptable to us or at all. Further, if additional funds are raised by issuing equity securities, significant dilution to our current shareholders may occur and new investors may get rights that are preferential to current shareholders. Alternatively, we may have to bring in joint venture partners to fund further development work, which would result in reducing our interests in the projects.

We may be unable to obtain the financing we need to pursue our growth strategy in the geothermal power production segment, which may adversely affect our ability to expand our operations. When we identify a geothermal property that we may seek to acquire or to develop, a substantial capital investment will be required. Our continued access to capital, through project financing or through a partnership or other arrangements with acceptable terms is necessary for the success of our growth strategy. Our attempts to secure the necessary capital may not be successful on favorable terms, or at all.

Market conditions and other factors may not permit future project and acquisition financings on terms favorable to us. Our ability to arrange for financing on favorable terms, and the costs of such financing, are dependent on numerous factors, including general economic and capital market conditions, investor confidence, the continued success of current projects, the credit quality of the projects being financed, the political situation in the state in which the project is located and the continued existence of tax laws which are conducive to raising capital. If we are unable to secure capital through partnership or other arrangements, we may have to finance the projects using equity financing which will have a dilutive effect on our common stock. Also, in the absence of favorable financing or other capital options, we may decide not to build new plants or acquire facilities from third parties. Any of these alternatives could have a material adverse effect on our growth prospects and financial condition.

-24-

It is very costly to place geothermal resources into commercial production. Before the sale of any power can occur, it will be necessary to construct a gathering and disposal system, a power plant, and a transmission line, and considerable administrative costs would be incurred, together with the drilling of additional wells. For Raft River Energy Unit I, capital contributions of approximately $52 million were needed. Future expansion of power production at Raft River, Idaho and San Emidio, Nevada and development of new power production capability at Neal Hot Springs may result in significantly increased capital costs related to increased production and injection well drilling and higher costs for labor and materials. To fund expenditures of this magnitude, we may have to find a joint venture participant with substantial financial resources. There can be no assurance that a participant can be found and, if found, it would result in us having to substantially reduce our interest in the project.

We may be unable to realize our strategy of utilizing the tax and other incentives available for developing geothermal power projects to attract strategic alliance partners, which may adversely affect our ability to complete these projects. Part of our business strategy is to utilize the tax and other incentives available to developers of geothermal power generating plants to attract strategic alliance partners with the capital sufficient to complete these projects. Many of the incentives available for these projects are new and highly complex. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in structuring agreements that are attractive to potential strategic alliance partners. If we are unable to do so, we may be unable to complete the development of our geothermal power projects and our business could be harmed.

Our participation in the joint venture is subject to risks relating to working with a co-venturer. Raft River Energy I LLC is the Unit I project joint venture company with Raft River I Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of The Goldman Sachs Group Inc. Raft River I Holdings, LLC has contributed a total of $34.2 million in cash and we have contributed over $16.4 million in cash and approximately $1.5 million in production and injection wells and geothermal leases to Raft River Energy I LLC. We are subject to risks in working with a co-venturer that could adversely impact Unit I of the Raft River project as well as anticipated development of Raft River Unit II. It’s possible that the Raft River Unit II power plant may utilize the geothermal resource within the Raft River Unit I joint venture boundaries. Further, our contribution to the joint venture may exceed returns from the joint venture, if any. Additional capital is needed to repair the existing wells to deliver the full capacity of the resource available to the project. There is a risk that the partner may not agree to the capital needs which could reduce the plant’s performance and profitability.

We are a holding company and our revenues depend substantially on the performance of our subsidiaries and the projects they operate. We are a holding company whose primary assets are our ownership of the equity interests in our subsidiaries. We conduct no other business and, as a result, we depend entirely upon our subsidiaries’ earnings and cash flow. Our subsidiaries and projects may be restricted in their ability to pay dividends, make distributions or otherwise transfer funds to us prior to the satisfaction of other obligations, including the payment of operating expenses or debt service.

We may not be able to manage our growth due to the commencement of operations of the Raft River and San Emidio power plants and exploration activities in Neal Hot Springs which could negatively impact our operations and financial condition. Significant growth in our operations will place demands on our operational, administrative and financial resources, and the increased scope of our operations will present challenges to us due to increased management time and resources required and our existing limited staff. Our future performance and profitability will depend in part on our ability to successfully integrate the operational, financial and administrative functions of Raft River and San Emidio and other acquired properties into our operations, to hire additional personnel and to implement necessary enhancements to our management systems to respond to changes in our business. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in these efforts. Our inability to manage the increased scope of operations, to integrate acquired properties, to hire additional personnel or to enhance our management systems could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

If we incur material debt to fund our business, we could face significant risks associated with such debt levels. We will need to procure significant additional financing to construct, commission and operate our power plants in order to generate and sell electricity. If this financing includes the issuance of material amounts of debt, this would expose the Company to risks including, among others, the following:

• a portion of our cash flow from operations would be used for the payment of principal and interest on such indebtedness and would not be available for financing capital expenditures or other purposes;

• a significant level of indebtedness and the covenants governing such indebtedness could limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business because certain activities or financing options may be limited or prohibited under the terms of agreements relating to such indebtedness;

• a significant level of indebtedness may make us more vulnerable to defaults by the purchasers of electricity or in the event of a downturn in our business because of fixed debt service obligations; and

• the terms of agreements may require us to make interest and principal payments and to remain in compliance with stated financial covenants and ratios. If the requirements of such agreements were not satisfied, the lenders could be entitled to accelerate the payment of all outstanding indebtedness and foreclose on the collateral securing payment of that indebtedness, which would likely include our interest in the project.

In such event, we cannot assure you that we would have sufficient funds available or could obtain the financing required to meet our obligations, including the repayment of outstanding principal and interest on such indebtedness.

We may not be able to successfully integrate companies that we may acquire in the future, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, future results and cash flow. Our strategy is to continue to expand in the future, including through acquisitions. Integrating acquisitions is often costly, and we may not be able to successfully integrate our acquired companies with our existing operations without substantial costs, delays or other adverse operational or financial consequences. Integrating our acquired companies involves a number of risks that could materially and adversely affect our business, including:

• failure of the acquired companies to achieve the results we expect;
• inability to retain key personnel of the acquired companies;
• risks associated with unanticipated events or liabilities; and

-26-

• the difficulty of establishing and maintaining uniform standards, controls, procedures and policies, including accounting controls and procedures.

If any of our acquired companies suffers performance problems, the same could adversely affect the reputation of our group of companies and could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, future results and cash flow.

The success of our business relies on retaining our key personnel. We are dependent upon the services of our President and Chief Executive Officer, Daniel J. Kunz, our Chief Financial Officer, Kerry D. Hawkley, our Vice President of Finance, Jonathan Zurkoff, our Chief Operating Officer, Douglas J. Glaspey, and Kevin R. Kitz, our Vice President – Project Development. The loss of any of their services could have a material adverse effect upon us. As of the date of this report, the Company has executed employment agreements with these persons, but does not have key-man insurance on any of them.

Our development activities are inherently very risky. The high risks involved in the development of a geothermal resource cannot be over-stated. The development of geothermal resources at our Raft River, Idaho; San Emidio, Nevada and Neal Hot Springs, Oregon projects are such that there cannot be any assurance of success. Exploration costs are high and are not fixed. The geothermal resource cannot be relied upon until substantial development, including drilling, has taken place. The costs of development drilling are subject to numerous variables such as unforeseen geologic conditions underground which could result in substantial cost overruns. Drilling for geothermal resource at Raft River is relatively deep with the average depth of wells some 6,000 feet. Drilling at Neal Hot Springs, Raft River and San Emidio may involve unprofitable efforts, not only from dry wells, but from wells that are productive but do not produce sufficient net revenues to return a profit after drilling, operating and other costs.

Our drilling operations may be curtailed, delayed or cancelled as a result of numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including economic conditions, mechanical problems, title problems, weather conditions, compliance with governmental requirements and shortages or delays of equipment and services. If our drilling activities are not successful, we could experience a material adverse effect on our future results of operations and financial condition.

In addition to the substantial risk that wells drilled will not be productive, or may decline in productivity after commencement of production, hazards such as unusual or unexpected geologic formations, pressures, downhole conditions, mechanical failures, blowouts, cratering, explosions, uncontrollable flows of well fluids, pollution and other physical and environmental risks are inherent in geothermal exploration and production. These hazards could result in substantial losses to us due to injury and loss of life, severe damage to and destruction of property and equipment, pollution and other environmental damage and suspension of operations.

-27-

The impact of governmental regulation could adversely affect our business by increasing costs for financing or development of power plants. Our business is subject to certain federal, state and local laws and regulations, including laws and regulations on taxation, the exploration for and development, production and distribution of electricity, and environmental and safety matters. On a Federal level, the most important tax rule that affects our business is the PTC, which was extended to December 31, 2014. Recent legislation enacted as part of the stimulus funding has also provided an election to take 30% ITC in lieu of the PTC and convertible into a cash grant for certain qualified investments being initiated before the end of 2010 and being placed in service before the end of 2013. The loss of the PTC or ITC is a risk that could result in making future expansions at Raft River, San Emidio and at Neal Hot Springs uneconomic. New rules recently adopted by the Bureau of Land Management, as directed by the Energy Policy Act of 2005, require competitive auction of all geothermal leases on Federal lands. Competitive leasing is significantly increasing the cost of obtaining leases on Federal land, is adding to the capital costs needed to develop geothermal projects, is increasing the total electrical power prices needed to make a geothermal project viable and is making it more difficult to acquire additional adjacent lands for reservoir protection and exploration.

If Federal lands or any Federal involvement are included in any geothermal development, requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act ("NEPA") will be triggered. Most of the geothermal resource in the United States is located in the western states, where the Federal Government often is the largest landowner. If a NEPA action is triggered, such as an Environmental Impact Statement or Environmental Assessment, a project delay of one to two years and a cost of $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 or more may be incurred while the environmental permitting process is completed. NEPA not only can impact the property where the geothermal resource is located, but includes the siting and construction of transmission lines. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner that means stricter standards, and enforcement, fines and penalties for non-compliance are more stringent. Environmental assessments of proposed projects carry a heightened degree of responsibility for companies and directors, officers and employees. The cost of compliance with changes in governmental regulations has a potential to reduce the profitability of operations.

In the states of Idaho, Nevada and Oregon, drilling for geothermal resources is governed by specific rules. In Nevada drilling operations are governed by the Division of Minerals (Nevada Administrative Code Chapter 534A); in Idaho by the Idaho Department of Water Resources (IDAPA 37 Title 03 Chapter 04); and in Oregon by the Division of Oil, Gas and Mineral Industries (Division 20 Geothermal Regulation). These rules require drilling permits and govern the spacing of wells, rates of production, prevention of waste and other matters, and, may not allow or may restrict drilling activity, or may require that a geothermal resource be unitized (shared) with adjoining land owners. Such laws and regulations may increase the costs of planning, designing, drilling, installing, operating and abandoning our geothermal wells, the power plant and other facilities. State environmental requirements and permits, such as the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality, Air Quality Permit to Construct, include public disclosure and comment. It is possible that a legal protest could be triggered through one of the permitting processes that would delay construction and increase cost for one of our projects. The state of Oregon has an Energy Facility Siting Council that must issue a site certificate for any geothermal energy facilities of 35 MWs or higher which could affect the Neal Hot Spring project by adding additional cost and delay construction.

Because of these state and federal regulations, we could incur liability to governments or third parties for any unlawful discharge of pollutants into the air, soil or water, including responsibility for remediation costs. We could potentially discharge such materials into the environment:

• from a well or drilling equipment at a drill site;

-28-

• leakage of fluids or airborne pollutants from gathering systems, pipelines, power plant and storage tanks;
• damage to geothermal wells resulting from accidents during normal operations; and
• blowouts, cratering and explosions.

Because the requirements imposed by such laws and regulations are frequently changed, we cannot assure you that laws and regulations enacted in the future, including changes to existing laws and regulations, will not adversely affect our business by increasing cost and the time required to explore and develop geothermal projects. In addition, because the Vulcan Property at Raft River was previously operated by others, we may be liable for environmental damage caused by such former operators.

Industry competition may impede our growth and ability to enter into power purchase agreements on terms favorable to us, or at all, which would negatively impact our revenue. The electrical power generation industry, of which geothermal power is a sub-component, is highly competitive and we may not be able to compete successfully or grow our business. We compete in areas of pricing, grid access and markets. The industry in the Western United States, in which the Raft River and San Emidio projects are located, is complex as it is composed of public utility districts, cooperatives and investor-owned power companies. Many of the participants produce and distribute electricity. Their willingness to purchase electricity from an independent producer may be based on a number of factors and not solely on pricing and surety of supply. If we cannot enter into power purchase agreements on terms favorable to us, or at all, it would negatively impact our revenue and our decisions regarding development of additional properties.

Some of our leases will terminate if we do not achieve commercial production during the primary term of the lease, thus requiring us to enter into new leases or secure rights to alternate geothermal resources, none of which may be available on terms as favorable to us as any such terminated lease, if at all. Most of our geothermal resource leases are for a fixed primary term, and then continue for so long as we achieve commercial production or pursuant to other terms of extension. The land covered by some of our leases is undeveloped and has not yet achieved commercial production of the geothermal resources. Leases that cover land which remains undeveloped and does not achieve commercial production and leases that we allow to expire, will terminate. In the event that a lease is terminated and we determine that we will need that lease once the applicable project is operating, we would need to enter into one or more new leases with the owner(s) of the premises that are the subject of the terminated lease(s) in order to develop geothermal resources from, or inject geothermal resources into, such premises or secure rights to alternate geothermal resources or lands suitable for injection, all of which may not be possible or could result in increased cost to us, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, future results and cash flow.

Claims have been made that some geothermal plants cause seismic activity and related property damage. There are approximately two-dozen steam geothermal plants operating within a fifty-square-mile region in the area of Anderson Springs, in Northern California, and there is general agreement that the operation of these plants causes a generally low level of seismic activity. Some residents in the Anderson Springs area have asserted property damage claims against those plant operators. There are significant issues whether the plant operators are liable, and to date no court has found in favor of such claimants. While we do not believe the areas of the Raft River, Idaho, San Emidio, Nevada and Neal Hot Springs, Oregon binary cycle power plant projects will present the same geological or seismic risks, there can be no assurance that we would not be subject to similar claims and litigation, which may adversely impact our operations and financial condition.

-29-

Actual costs of construction or operation of a power plant may exceed estimates used in negotiation of power purchase and power financing agreements. The Company’s initial power purchase contract is under rates established by the Idaho Public Utility Commission, using an “avoided-cost” model for cost of construction and operating costs of power plants. If the actual costs of construction or operations exceed the model costs, the Company may not be able to build the contemplated power plants, or if constructed, may not be able to operate profitably. The Company’s financing agreements provide for a priority payback to our partner. If the actual costs of construction or operations exceed the model costs, we may not be able to operate profitably or receive the planned share of cash flow and proceeds from the project. The actual costs of operating the Raft River power project are higher than the original estimate due to several factors including the need to filter the ground water for cooling to remove harmful and unanticipated chloride levels in the water, the need to purchase production pump power from a third party to provide maximum plant output, and increased general costs related to labor and management.

Payments under our Raft River Unit I power purchase agreement may be reduced if we are unable to forecast our production adequately. Under the terms of our power purchase agreement for Raft River Unit I, and starting with the third year of operation (2010), if we do not deliver electricity output within 90% to 110% of our forecasted amount, which requires us to submit a forecast every three months, payments for the amount delivered will be reduced, possibly significantly. For example if the plant produces more than 110% of the power as forecasted then we would not receive any revenue for the amount over the forecast figure. If the plant produces less than 90% of the forecast amount for unexcused reasons, such as normal plant breakdowns and maintenance, then we may be subject to a reduced power price, depending on the prevailing power market conditions. The agreement moves the power price to the market price instead of contracted price. We currently expect to forecast 9 MWs of delivery on a 10-MW plant and the damages would then result if the actual delivery was only 8.1 MWs or less. All 8.1 MWs would be subject to a reduced price that is not possible to predict at this time. The total average revenue per MW hour is approximately $62.40 and the reduction in revenue could be perhaps 30 percent of that amount. As a risk mitigation element, we are not subject to this adjustment until year three of the contract and then we are able to submit a new forecast every three months thereby limiting this exposure.

There are some risks for which we do not or cannot carry insurance. Because our current operations are limited in scope, the Company carries property, public liability insurance and directors’ and officers’ liability coverage, but does not currently insure against any other risks. As its operations progress, the Company will acquire additional coverage consistent with its operational needs, but the Company may become subject to liability for pollution or other hazards against which it cannot insure or cannot insure at sufficient levels or against which it may elect not to insure because of high premium costs or other reasons. In particular, coverage is not available for environmental liability or earthquake damage.

-30-

Our officers and directors may have conflicts of interests arising out of their relationships with other companies. Several of our directors and officers serve (or may agree to serve) as directors or officers of other companies or have significant shareholdings in other companies. To the extent that such other companies may participate in ventures in which the Company may participate, the directors may have a conflict of interest in negotiating and concluding terms respecting the extent of such participation. From time to time several companies may participate in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties thereby allowing for their participation in larger programs, permitting involvement in a greater number of programs and reducing financial exposure in respect of any one program. It may also occur that a particular company will assign all or a portion of its interest in a particular program to another of these companies due to the financial position of the company making the assignment.

Failure to comply with regulatory requirements may adversely affect our stock price and business. As a public company, we are subject to numerous governmental and stock exchange requirements, with which we believe we are in compliance. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) have requirements that we may fail to meet by the required deadlines or we may fall out of compliance with, such as the internal controls assessment, reporting and auditor attestation required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Company has documented and tested its internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”). SOX requires an annual assessment by management of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and an attestation report by the Company’s independent auditors on internal controls over financial reporting. We may incur additional costs in order to comply with Section 404. In addition, if we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Moreover, effective internal controls are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to help prevent financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our stock could drop significantly. Our failure to meet regulatory requirements and exchange listing standards may result in actions such as the delisting of our stock impacting our stock’s liquidity; SEC enforcement actions; and securities claims and litigation.

Risks Relating To the Market for Our Securities

A significant number of shares of our common stock are eligible for public resale. If a significant number of shares are resold on the public market, the share price could be reduced and could adversely affect our ability to raise needed capital. The market price for our common stock could decrease significantly and our ability to raise capital through the issuance of additional equity could be adversely affected by the availability and resale of such a large number of shares in a short period of time. If we cannot raise additional capital on terms favorable to us, or at all, it may delay our exploration or development of existing properties or limit our ability to acquire new properties, which would be detrimental to our business.

-31-

Because the public market for shares of our common stock is limited, investors may be unable to resell their shares of common stock. There is currently only a limited public market for our common stock on the Toronto Stock Exchange in Canada and on the NYSE Amex in the United States, and investors may be unable to resell their shares of common stock. The development of an active public trading market depends upon the existence of willing buyers and sellers that are able to sell their shares and market makers that are willing to make a market in the shares. Under these circumstances, the market bid and ask prices for the shares may be significantly influenced by the decisions of the market makers to buy or sell the shares for their own account, which may be critical for the establishment and maintenance of a liquid public market in our common stock. We cannot give you any assurance that an active public trading market for the shares will develop or be sustained.

The price of our common stock is volatile, which may cause investment losses for our shareholders. The market for our common stock is highly volatile, having ranged in the last fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, from a low of $0.46 CDN to a high of $3.02 CDN on the TSX Exchanges and from a low of $0.39 to a high of $2.95 on the NYSE Amex. The trading price of our common stock on the TSX Exchange and on the NYSE Amex is subject to wide fluctuations in response to, among other things, quarterly variations in operating and financial results, and general economic and market conditions. In addition, statements or changes in opinions, ratings, or earnings estimates made by brokerage firms or industry analysts relating to our market or relating to our company could result in an immediate and adverse effect on the market price of our common stock. The highly volatile nature of our stock price may cause investment losses for our shareholders.

We do not intend to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We intend to reinvest any earnings in the development of our projects. Payments of future dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including our business, operating results and financial condition, current and anticipated cash needs, plans for expansion and any legal or contractual limitations on our ability to pay dividends.

Provisions in our bylaws and under Delaware law could discourage a takeover that stockholders may consider favorable. Our bylaws contain provisions that could depress the trading price of our common stock by acting to discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our company or changes in our management that the stockholders of our company may deem advantageous. These provisions prohibit stockholders from calling special meetings, which may deter a takeover attempt. Additionally, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which generally prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any of a broad range of business combinations with any holder of 15% or more of our capital stock for a period of three years following the date on which the stockholder acquired such ownership percentage, unless, among other things, our Board of Directors has approved the transaction. This statute likewise may discourage, delay or prevent a change of control.

The properties in northwestern Nevada include San Emidio, Gerlach and Granite Creek. The Company currently has two commercially operational power plants. Unit I at Raft River became commercially operational on January 3, 2008. The San Emidio plant was acquired in the Empire Acquisition in May 2008.

REGIONAL LOCATION MAP

-33-

Raft River, Idaho

The Raft River project, where the company’s geothermal operations are located, is in southeastern Idaho, approximately 55 miles southeast of Burley, the county seat of Cassia County. Burley, population 8,300, is the local agricultural and manufacturing center for the area, providing a full range of light to heavy industrial services.

A commercial airport is located 90 miles to the northeast in Pocatello, Idaho. Pocatello, population 53,000, is a regional center for agriculture, heavy industry (mining, phosphate refining), technology and education with Idaho State University. Malta, a town with a population of approximately 180, is 12 miles north of the project site where basic services, fuel, and groceries are available. Year-round access to the project from Burley is via Interstate Highway 84 south to State Highway 81 south, then east on the Narrows Canyon Road, an improved county road.

The Raft River project currently consists of ten parcels (generally referred to as the U.S. Geothermal Property, the Crank Lease, the Newbold Lease, the Jensen Investments Leases, the Stewart Lease, the Bighorn Mortgage Lease, the Doman Lease, the Griffin Lease, and the Glover Lease) comprising 783.93 acres of fee land and 4,736.79 acres of contiguous leased geothermal rights located on private property in Cassia County, Idaho. All parcels are defined by legal subdivision or by metes and bounds survey description. The ten parcels are as follows:

The U.S. Geothermal Property - Idaho. The U.S. Geothermal Property is comprised of four separate properties that total 1,723.93 acres: the Vulcan, Elena Corporation, Dewsnup and the Wilcox Ranch Properties. The Vulcan Property includes both surface and geothermal rights and consists of two parcels. The first parcel has a total area of approximately 240 acres and three geothermal wells (RRGE-1, RRGP-4 and RRGP-5) are located on this parcel. The second parcel has a total area of approximately 320 acres, and three additional geothermal wells (RRGE-3, RRGI-6 and RRGI-7) are located on this parcel. A fourth well, RRGE-2, although located on the property covered by the Crank lease, was acquired by the company from a local rancher. The Wilcox Ranch includes 940 acres of agricultural and range lands adjacent to Raft River that provides cooling water.

The Elena Property is comprised of surface and geothermal rights to approximately 100 acres of property, excluding the oil and gas rights to the property. The property is contiguous to other properties owned or leased by the company.

The Dewsnup Property is comprised of the surface and geothermal rights to approximately 123.93 acres of property, excluding the oil and gas rights to the property, but including all surface water rights. The property is contiguous to other properties owned or leased by the company.

The Crank Lease. The Crank lease covers approximately 160 acres of mineral and geothermal rights, with right of ingress and egress.

The Newbold Lease. The Newbold lease covers approximately 20 acres of both surface and geothermal rights.

-34-

The Jensen Investments Leases. The first Jensen Investments lease covers approximately 2,954.75 acres of geothermal rights only. It is contiguous with the Vulcan Property and property covered by the Crank and Stewart leases. The second Jensen Investments lease covers approximately 44.5 acres of surface and geothermal rights, and is contiguous with property covered by the first Jensen lease.

The Stewart Lease. The Stewart Lease covers approximately 317.54 acres on two adjoining parcels. Parcel 1 contains approximately 159.04 acres and includes surface and geothermal rights. Parcel 2 contains approximately 158.50 acres and only covers surface rights. The underlying geothermal rights for Parcel 2 are subject to the first Jensen Investments Lease.

The Bighorn Mortgage Lease. The Bighorn Mortgage lease covers approximately 280 acres of surface and geothermal rights.

The Doman Lease. The Doman lease covers approximately 640 acres of surface and geothermal rights, excluding oil and gas rights.

The Griffin Lease. The Griffin lease contains approximately 160 acres of geothermal rights.

The Glover Lease. The Glover lease contains approximately 160 acres of geothermal rights.

BLM Lease. The geothermal resources lease agreement with the United States Department of Interior Bureau of Land Management (BLM) was entered into on August 1, 2007. The lease is for approximately 1,685 acres of land located contiguous to the Raft River Property in southeastern Idaho.

-35-

Raft River Energy Unit I

Unit I at Raft River became commercially operational on January 3, 2008. As a result of the project financing for Unit I of the Raft River project, the Company has contributed over $17.9 million in cash and property to Raft River Energy I LLC, the Unit I project joint venture company. Raft River Holdings, an affiliate of Goldman Sachs Group, has contributed approximately $34 million to the project. Property assigned to Raft River Energy by the Company includes seven production and injection wells, seven monitoring wells, the Stewart lease, the Crank lease, the Newbold lease, the Doman lease, and the Glover lease. All appropriate permits and contracts have also been assigned to Raft River Energy for Unit I.

Although significant detail has been provided about each specific lease area, the economics of the project is based on the total resource. The reservoir supporting the project encompasses the entire Known Geothermal Resource Area (“KGRA”), which includes all the property owned or leased by the company at Raft River. All discussions of the economics of the project, including future phases, will be based at the project level rather than at the lease level.

Lease/Royalty Terms

The Crank lease, the Newbold lease, the Jensen Investments leases, the Bighorn Mortgage lease, the Doman lease, the Griffin lease and the Glover lease have royalties payable under the following terms:

(a)	Energy produced, saved and used for the generation of electric power, which is then sold by lessee, has a royalty of ten percent (10%) of the net proceeds to RREI.
(b)	Energy produced, saved and sold by lessee, then used by the purchaser for generation of electric power, has a royalty of ten percent (10%) of the market value.
(c)	Energy produced, which is used for any purpose other than the generation of electricity has a royalty of five percent (5%) of the gross proceeds.

The Stewart lease has production royalties payable under the following terms:

(a)	Energy produced, saved and sold by the Lessee, then used by the purchaser for generation of electric power, has a royalty of ten percent (10%) of the market value of the electric power.
(b)	Energy produced, saved and used for the generation of electric power, which is then sold by Lessee, has a royalty of three percent (3%) of the market value of the electric power.
(c)	Energy produced, which is used for any purpose other than the generation of electricity has a royalty of five percent (5%) of the gross proceeds.

No production royalties have been paid to date under any of the leases. All of the leases may be extended indefinitely if production is achieved during the primary term, so long as production is maintained. For each lease other than the Crank Lease (see below), once production is achieved the amounts due annually will be the greater of the production royalty and the minimum payment for the last year of the primary term. All payments under the leases are made annually in advance on the anniversary date of the particular lease. In addition, the following lease and other royalty terms apply to the individual leases:

The Crank Lease. The lease agreement with Janice Crank was originally entered into June 28, 2002, and had a primary term of 5 years. After U.S. Geothermal Inc. provided evidence to the lessor that the well (RRGE-2) located on lessor’s property was not owned by the lessor (but instead was included in the Vulcan Property), a new lease was entered into on June 28, 2003, which excluded the ownership of RRGE-2, with a four-year initial term.

Payments for years 2002 through 2006 have been recorded as lease expense. After commercial production was attained, these lease payments have been deducted from future production royalties. For later years, during commercial production, there is a minimum annual production royalty of $18,000. The minimum amount that will be payable over the course of the leases is $45,000. Maximum amounts payable will depend on production from the property.

The Newbold Lease. The company leases this property pursuant to a lease agreement with Jay Newbold dated March 1, 2004. The Newbold lease has a primary term of 10 years (through February 28, 2014) and is extended indefinitely so long as production from the geothermal field is maintained. Minimum lease payments are as follows:

• Years 1-5: $10.00 per acre or $200 per year
• Years 6-10: $15.00 per acre or $300 per year

-37-

The minimum amount that will be payable over the course of the lease is $2,500. Maximum amounts payable will depend on royalties on production from the property.

The Jensen Investments Leases. The first Jensen Investments lease was originally with Sergene Jensen, as lessor, is dated July 11, 2002, and has a primary term of 10 years. In September 2005, the property subject to the lease was conveyed and the lease was assumed by Jensen Investments, Inc. Minimum lease payments (on a July to July basis) are as follows:

• Years 1-5: $2.50 per acre or $7,386.88 per year
• Years 6-10: $3.00 per acre or $8,864.25 per year

The minimum amount that will be payable over the course of the lease is $81,256. Maximum amounts payable will depend on production from the property.

• Years 1-5: $2.50 per acre or $111.25 per year
• Years 6-10: $3.00 per acre or $133.50 per year

The minimum amount that will be payable over the course of the lease is $1,224. Maximum amounts payable will depend on royalties on production from the property.

The Stewart Lease. The Stewart lease, with Reid and Ruth Stewart, is dated December 1, 2004, and has a primary term of 30 years. Minimum lease payments are as follows:

• Year 1: $8,000
• Year 2: $5,000
• Year 3-30: $5,000 plus an annual increase of 5% per year.

The minimum amount that will be payable over the course of the lease is $319,614. Maximum amounts payable will depend upon royalties on production from the property.

The Bighorn Mortgage Lease. The Bighorn Mortgage lease, with Conrad Irrevocable Trust, is dated July 5, 2005, and has a primary term of 10 years. Minimum lease payments are as follows:

• Year 1-5: $1,400
• Year 6-10: $2,100

The minimum amount that will be payable over the course of the lease is $17,500. Maximum amounts payable will depend upon royalties on production from the property.

The Doman Lease. The Doman lease, with Dale and Ronda Doman, is dated June 23, 2005, and has a primary term of 10 years. Minimum lease payments are as follows:

• Year 1-5: $1,600
• Year 6-10: $3,200

The minimum amount that will be payable over the course of the lease is $24,000. Maximum amounts payable will depend upon royalties on production from the property.

Neal Hot Springs, Oregon

Neal Hot Springs is a geothermal resource located in Eastern Oregon. The Company acquired the Neal Hot Springs geothermal energy and surface rights in September 2006. It is currently under development.

The first production well was completed in June 2008. A step-rate flow test, with pressure buildup, was conducted for 12 hours on July 12, 2008 and resulted in a flowing production temperature of 286.5º F (141º C). The well flowed under artesian pressure at a peak rate of 2,055 gallons per minute (“gpm”) at artesian pressure and then was stepped down to a lower flow rate of 1,210 gpm before it was shut in and the pressure buildup monitored. Richard Holt of Geothermal Science, Inc., an independent geothermal reservoir engineering firm, calculated a well productivity index of 450 gpm/psi, which is considered to be very high in the geothermal industry. The Company proceeded with permitting up to a 22 MW power plant. USG has acquired all state and federal permits necessary for project construction. A Conditional Use Permit has been issued by Malheur County. The only remaining permits required prior to construction are the septic approval for the office facility and the local building permit. The transmission line right-of-ways have been acquired, and a power purchase agreement (with Idaho Power) has been approved by the IPUC.

San Emidio, Nevada

Effective May 1, 2008, the Company acquired a 3.6 MW operating geothermal power plant and approximately 30,734.21 acres (48.0 square miles) of geothermal energy leases and certain ground water rights all located north of Reno, Nevada. The total purchase price was $16.6 million. The assets are comprised of two locations: the San Emidio assets and the Gerlach/Granite Creek assets. The San Emidio assets are located in the San Emidio Desert, Washoe County, Nevada and include the geothermal power project, approximately 22,944 acres (35.9 square miles) of geothermal leases, and ground water rights used for cooling water. The Gerlach assets are comprised of approximately 3,415 acres (5.3 square miles) of BLM geothermal leases located about 1 mile north of Gerlach, Nevada. The Granite Creek assets are comprised of approximately 5,414 acres (8.5 square miles) of BLM geothermal leases located about 7 miles north of Gerlach, Nevada. The Gerlach and Granite Creek assets are along a geologic structure known to host geothermal features including the Great Boiling Spring and the Fly Ranch Geyser.

The 3.6 -MW geothermal power plant has been producing power since 1987 and sells electricity to Sierra Pacific Power Corporation under an existing power purchase agreement that extends through 2017. A March 2008 resource assessment of the San Emidio geothermal leases by independent experts Susan Petty of Black Mountain Technology and Geologist, Dennis Trexler, estimated a total resource potential of 44 MWs with a 90% probability factor.

The power plant was constructed in 1986 with commercial power generation beginning in 1987. Deeper wells with higher temperatures were drilled in 1994 to supply the plant after output declined due to cooling of the original, shallow production wells. The current configuration of the plant consists of four 1.2 MW Ormat Energy Converters, three injection wells and two production wells. A three cell cooling tower was added in 1998 to improve summer power generation. The plant is connected to the transmission grid via a 60 kilovolt intertie.

San Emidio is our second operating geothermal power plant and is owned by a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (USG Nevada LLC). The project is a small-scale geothermal power plant selling approximately 2.5 MWs. The plant is approximately 22 years old and employs four binary cycle units. We have conducted a review of the information regarding the project, and we believe that the existing production wells can provide 4,000 to 5,000 gallons per minute of 280 to 300 °F fluid to the current power plant.

The BLM lease contracts require royalty payments for the use of geothermal resources. The rate is based upon 10% of the value of the resource at the well head. The amounts are calculated according to a formula established by MMS.

Kosmos Lease. This is a geothermal resource lease agreement for 1,040 acres with The Kosmos Company (“Kosmos”). The lease has been in effect since October l987 and continues so long as the lessee is drilling for, producing geothermal power, or conducting remedial operations. Under the terms of the first amendment to the lease which became effective upon our acquisition of the San Emidio Geothermal assets, Kosmos will be paid the greater of $8,000 per month or 3.5% of the gross sales price of electric power from fluids produced and injected until the proposed new power plant achieves commercial operation. When a new power plant is installed and producing commercial power, the royalty will change to 1.75% of the gross sales price of electric power sold by the lessee for 120 months and 3.5% thereafter.

Gerlach, Nevada

In May 2008, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Gerlach Green Energy LLC of Nevada to form a limited liability company named Gerlach Geothermal LLC. The joint venture owns geothermal rights for 3,615 acres (5.6 square miles) located in northwestern Nevada near the town of Gerlach. The target of the joint venture is the exploration of the regional Gerlach geothermal system. The joint venture is located near the Company’s Granite Creek leases that were recently acquired as part of the San Emidio geothermal power plant acquisition.

Lease/Royalty Terms

BLM Leases. The Gerlach Geothermal LLC assets are comprised two BLM geothermal leases and one private lease totaling 3,615 acres. Both BLM leases have a royalty rate is based upon 10% of the value of the resource at the wellhead. The amounts are calculated according to a formula established by MMS. 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.

-43-

Granite Creek, Nevada

The Granite Creek assets are comprised of approximately 5,414 acres (8.5 square miles) of BLM geothermal leases located about 6 miles north of Gerlach, Nevada along a geologic structure known to host geothermal features including the Great Boiling Spring and the Fly Ranch Geyser.

Lease/Royalty Terms

BLM Leases. The Company has three geothermal lease contracts with the BLM. The lease contracts are for approximately 5,414 acres of land and geothermal water rights located in the northwestern Nevada. The lease contracts have primary terms of 10 years. Per federal regulations applicable for the contracts, the lessee has the option to extend the primary lease term another 40 years if the BLM does not need the land for any other purpose and the lessee is maintaining production at commercial quantities. The leases state annual lease payments of $5,414, not including processing fees, and expire October 31, 2012.

Republic of Guatemala

Subsequent to the end of the year, the Company announced on April 15 that it was successful in acquiring a geothermal concession in the Republic of Guatemala. The concession consists of 24,710 acres (100 square kilometers) and is located 14 miles southwest of Guatemala City, the capital. Nine wells with depths ranging from 560 to 2,000 feet (170 to 610 meters) were drilled in the El Ceibillo resource area within the concession area during the l990s. Six of the wells have measured reservoir temperatures in the range of 365 to 400°F (185 to 204°C). Fluid sample analysis and the mineralogy associated with drill cuttings suggest the existence of a deeper, higher permeability reservoir with temperature potential of 410 to 446°F (210 to 230°C).

Boise Administration Office, Idaho

The Company entered into a 3 year lease contract effective January 1, 2008 through January 31, 2011, for general office space for an executive office located in Boise, Idaho. The lease payments are due in monthly installments that start at $5,637 per month and increase annually to $5,981 per month.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following is a list of projects that are in operation, under development or under exploration. Projects in operation have producing geothermal power plants. Projects under development have at least a geothermal resource discovery or may have wells in place, but require the drilling of new or additional production and injection wells in order to supply enough geothermal fluid sufficient to operate a commercial power plant. Projects under exploration do not have a geothermal resource discovery occurrence yet, but have significant thermal and other physical evidence that warrants the expenditure of capital in search of the discovery of a geothermal resource. Due to inflation and marketplace increases in the costs of labor and construction materials, previous estimates of property development costs may be low.

For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, the Company was focused on:

1)	optimizing the operation of the well field at the Raft River, Idaho geothermal project (“Raft River Unit I”);
2)	continuing due diligence for the Department of Energy Section 1703 loan guarantee program for the Neal Hot Springs Project;
3)	planning and permitting drilling and field development activities at Neal Hot Springs in Oregon and continuing the temperature gradient drilling program;
4)	negotiating a PPA for the San Emidio Phase I repower and Phase II expansion project;
5)	optimizing the operation of the San Emidio power plant in Nevada, and planning for the Phase I repower of the existing well field;
6)	planning and permitting for drilling at the Gerlach Joint Venture, and
7)	the evaluation of potential new geothermal project acquisitions.

Raft River, Idaho

Raft River Energy Unit I is located in Idaho and has a 13 MW capacity geothermal power plant in operation.

In early January 2009, production well RRG-7 underwent a temperature decline that has reduced the inlet fluid temperature to the power plant over the year by approximately 10 degrees Fahrenheit. At the same time of the temperature change, fluid flow increased. Power generation has been reduced by an estimated 1MW due to the lower temperature fluid. It was determined that the cement in a lap joint had failed and a mechanical packer was installed to reduce the cold water inflow, but was unsuccessful. A remediation program is planned that will “squeeze” cement into the lap joint and plug off the cold water flow to return the well temperature and increase power plant generation.

The joint venture partners are evaluating a recovery plan that includes repairing the lap joint RRG-7, drilling a new production leg on one or two existing production wells and drilling a new injection well. We anticipate completing the repair of well RRG-7, with a repair cost estimated at $813,300, in the first half of the fiscal year before a decision is made on the remainder of the recovery plan.

-50-

Raft River Unit II is anticipated to cost approximately $134 million and Raft River Unit III is anticipated to cost approximately $166 million, up to 75% of which we believe may be funded by loans, with the remainder funded through equity financing. Provided funding is available, Raft River Unit II is anticipated to begin construction in the fourth calendar quarter of 2010 with commercial operations commencing in the fourth calendar quarter of 2013 or the first calendar quarter of 2014. Raft River Unit III is anticipated to begin construction in the first calendar quarter of 2014 with commercial operations commencing in the second calendar quarter of 2015.

Neal Hot Springs, Oregon

Neal Hot Springs is a promising geothermal resource located in Eastern Oregon.

On February 26, 2009 U.S. Geothermal submitted an application for the Neal Hot Springs project to the DOE’s Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy and Advanced Transmission and Distribution Solicitation loan guarantee program under Title XVII of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. The Company was notified that its project application is complete, the power plant technology choice qualifies as new or improved under the program, and the project has been selected to proceed in the project loan process.

Conditional approval of the DOE loan was received in May 2010, and it is expected to provide up to 75% of the $136 million estimated capital cost of Stage I up to a maximum loan amount of $102.2 million. The capital cost has increased to $136 million from prior estimates of $106 million due to costs of labor, updated vendor pricing and construction materials, loan costs and contingencies. Detailed design of a binary cycle power plant utilizing significantly improved technology is currently in progress with construction expected to begin in mid to late 2010. The new plant, designed to deliver approximately 22 MWs of power net to the grid is scheduled to begin commercial operations in early 2012. The DOE loan is anticipated to be a combined construction and term loan and provide the project with a low cost annual interest rate. We expect that we will be required to drill up to 8 wells as a condition precedent to drawing on the DOE loan, if it is approved.

At our Neal Hot Springs project, an infill geophysical program was carried out to increase the density of data to highlight suspected geologic targets and structures. Applications for four additional exploration wells to further delineate the geothermal resource with production and injection targets were approved by the state of Oregon on September 11, 2009 and drilling of the second production well, NHS-5, began on September 18, 2009. October 15, 2009, the Company successfully completed well NHS-5, the second full size production well at the Neal Hot Springs project located in eastern Oregon. NHS-5 encountered several lost circulation zones within the targeted horizon and intercepted a large aperture fracture at 2,796 feet resulting in a total loss of circulation. The well was completed to a depth of 2,896 feet. An initial 16 hour flow test completed using air lift produced fluid at a rate of 1,500 gallons per minute and resulted in a down hole flowing temperature of 286º F (141º C).

The reservoir-hosting fracture zone intersected in NHS-5 is 509 feet deeper in the geologic system than the large producing fracture intersected by NHS-1 which is located approximately 600 feet to the southeast. Both wells were instrumented with pressure and temperature equipment during the flow test. Geologic information and flow data from the drilling and flow test has been incorporated into the ongoing development of a reservoir model of the Neal Hot Springs geothermal system.

-51-

In addition to the drilling program for production-sized wells, the company has continued a temperature gradient (“TG”) drilling program utilizing a small diameter drill hole. Eleven TG holes ranging in depth from 500 to 1,060 feet have been completed, and are providing valuable temperature gradient data for the overall area that hosts the Neal Hot Springs reservoir. Currently, several TG holes are being deepened and another three to five new TG holes will be drilled with a number of the holes planned to reach a depth of 2,000 feet as the size of the geothermal anomaly is defined.

The Company received the Conditional Use Permit from the Malheur County Planning Commission for construction of its proposed 22 net MW power plant at Neal Hot Springs in eastern Oregon. The Conditional Use Permit received unanimous approval at a September 24, 2009 Planning Commission meeting and was issued on October 28, 2009. All of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) mandated transmission studies have been completed by Idaho Power Company. An interconnection agreement was signed with the Idaho Power Company in February 2009. Private right-of-ways for the transmission line have been acquired, the line route is surveyed and the final engineering design has reached approximately 99% completion.

The PPA for the project was signed on December 11, 2009 with the Idaho Power Company. The PPA has a 25 year term with a starting price of $96 per MW-hour and escalates at a variable percentage annually. Idaho Power Company submitted the PPA to the Idaho Public Utilities Commission on December 28, 2009. IPUC authorized a Modified Procedure for review of the PPA on March 17, 2010 which calls for a 45 day public comment period and 10 day reply period. Subsequent to the end of the year, approval of the PPA by the IPUC was received on May 20, 2010.

The total development cost of Neal Hot Springs Stage II is estimated to be $154 million. Construction is anticipated to begin in the third quarter of 2011 with commercial operations commencing in the third quarter of 2013.

San Emidio, Nevada

The San Emidio geothermal power plant has been producing power since 1987 and sells electricity to Sierra Pacific Power Corporation under an existing power purchase agreement that extends through 2017. Deeper wells with higher temperatures were drilled in 1994 to supply the plant after output declined due to cooling of the original, shallow production wells. The current configuration of the plant consists of four 1.2 gross MW Ormat Energy Converters (“OEC”), five production wells (two wells in use and three on stand by), and four injection wells (three wells in use and one on standby). A cooling tower was added in 1998 to improve summer peak power generation. Power sales from the San Emidio plant for the last fiscal year averaged 2.2 MWs.

Two System Feasibility Studies were initiated in July 2008 with Sierra Pacific Power Corporation to begin the FERC mandated transmission study process for the development of the San Emidio resource. The studies are examining two levels of power generation, 15 MWs and 45 MWs, several transmission routes and the costs associated with each level of generation. The System Impact Study for the 15 MW Phase I repower, the second phase of interconnection study process, was completed in July and confirmed that the existing transmission system was able to handle up to 15 MWs. The third phase study, the Interconnection Facilities Study for the 15 MW option, was completed in October. A draft interconnection agreement is expected from Sierra Pacific Power before the end of the second calendar quarter of 2010.

Subsequent to the end of the year, the System Impact Study for the 45 MW option was received in April. The third phase study for the 45 MW option, the Interconnection Facilities Study, will be contracted during the second calendar quarter and is expected to be completed before year end.

On October 30, 2009, the Company was awarded $3.77 million in Recovery Act funding for the exploration and development of its San Emidio geothermal power project using advanced geophysical exploration techniques. This award was categorized under the “Innovative Exploration and Drilling Projects” section of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The project at San Emidio will apply innovative, seismic and satellite imagery techniques along with state-of-the-art structural modeling, to locate large aperture factures that represent high-productivity geothermal drilling targets. Initial geologic mapping under the program has been initiated and the seismic team has been contracted.

The San Emidio 35 MW development in planned for execution in two phases. Phase I will be a repower and Phase II will be an expansion. Phase I will utilize the existing production and injection wells with a new, more efficient power plant. As shown in the table above, the repower is anticipated to cost approximately $30 million and the expansion is anticipated to cost $127 million, 75% of which we believe may be funded by a Department of Energy loan, with the remainder funded through equity financing. The Phase I repower is anticipated to begin construction in the third calendar quarter of 2010 with commercial operations commencing in the fourth calendar quarter of 2011 or first calendar quarter of 2012. The Phase II expansion is anticipated to begin construction in the second calendar quarter of 2010 with commercial operations commencing in the third calendar quarter of 2012. The Company expects to be granted about $40 million in ITC cash grant in connection with the $157 million 35 MW development. The 35 MW development will require an amendment to the existing Sierra Pacific Power Purchase Agreement.

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

Although other factors may impact our operations and financial condition, including many that we do not or cannot foresee, we believe that our results of operations and financial condition for the foreseeable future will be affected by the following factors.

Raft River Energy I LLC

In early January 2009, production well RRG-7 underwent a temperature decline that has reduced the inlet fluid temperature to the power plant over the year by approximately 10 degrees Fahrenheit. At the same time of the temperature change, fluid flow increased. Power generation has been reduced by an estimated 1MW due to the lower temperature fluid. It was determined that the cement in a lap joint had failed so a mechanical packer was installed to reduce the cold water inflow, but was unsuccessful. A remediation program is planned that will “squeeze” cement into the lap joint and plug off the cold water flow to return the well temperature and increase power plant generation.

-53-

Raft River Unit I operated through the year at 95.2 percent availability which includes a scheduled maintenance outage of 12 days in April 2009 that was extended to replace a turbine damaged during construction. Raft River generated in a range of 7.7 to 10.1 net MWs during the twelve month period averaging 8.8 MWs. The reduction in output for the period compared to the planned generation was primarily due to the loss of temperature from production well RRG-7.

The joint venture partners are evaluating a recovery plan that includes repairing the lap joint RRG-7, drilling a new production leg on one or two existing production wells and drilling a new injection well. We anticipate completing the repair of well RRG-7 in the first half of the year before a decision is made on the remainder of the recovery plan.

Raft River Operating Agreement

We hold a 50% interest in Raft River Energy I LLC, which owns Raft River Unit I (“Unit I”). Construction of Unit I required substantial capital, and partnering with a co-venturer allowed us to share the risks of ownership. The joint venture has also allowed the project to take advantage of production tax credits which would not otherwise have been available to us. When Unit I operates at full capacity of 13 MWs, we estimate we will receive cash payments totaling approximately $1.6 million for the first four years of its operations. While Unit I generates at less than full capacity, our annual cash payments from the Raft River I project will be lower. See Note 5 “Investment in Subsidiary” in the financial statements for detail of cash payments from RREI.

The Company’s interests in the RREI as defined in the partnership agreements are summarized as follows:

		Years 1 - 4	Years 5 - 10	Years 11 - 20	Years 20 - 25
Cash Flow	RECs	70% (1)
	GAAP Income	1% (2)		49%	80%
	Lease Payments, O&M Services & Royalties	100%
	Distributions	Guaranteed min. payment	1% (3)	49%	80%
Tax Benefits		1% (2)		49%	80%

(1)	U.S. Geothermal allocates 70% of income and receives 70% of available cash from RECs sold to third- parties. After year 10, REC income is shared with Idaho Power Co. For additional details, see U.S. Geothermal’s Form 10-Q filed on August 10, 2009 (Exhibit 10.36).
(2)	Flip to next tier occurs after the later of 10 years or Raft River I Holdings’ target IRR is achieved.
(3)	Flip to next tier occurs after Raft River I Holdings’ target IRR is achieved.

A cooling tower was added in 1998 to improve summer peak power generation. Power sales from the San Emidio plant for the year averaged 2.2 MWs.

Power Purchase Agreements

Prior to the construction of a geothermal project, we typically enter into a power purchase agreement with a utility, which fixes the price of energy produced at a project for a 20 to 25 year period. Such PPAs are typically negotiated with the utility company and approved by a state utility commission or similar regulating body.

Power purchase agreements generally provide for the payment of energy payments, capacity payments, or both. Energy payments are calculated based on the amount of electrical energy delivered to the relevant power purchaser at a designated delivery point. The rates applicable to such payments are either fixed, subject to adjustments in certain cases, or are based on the relevant power purchaser’s short-run avoided costs calculated as the incremental costs that the power purchaser avoids by not having to generate such electrical energy itself or purchase it from others. Capacity payments, on the other hand, are generally calculated based on the amount of time that our power plants are available to generate electricity. Some power purchase agreements provide for bonus payments in the event that the producer is able to exceed certain target levels and forfeiture of payments if minimum target levels are not met.

Raft River Energy I LLC currently earns revenue from a full-output PPA with Idaho Power, which is expected to be 13-MWs annual average. The PPA expires in 2032. This PPA was signed as part of ongoing negotiations with Idaho Power for PPAs covering an expected total output of 45.5 MWs and may be used as the template for additional PPAs. The price of energy sold under the Idaho Power PPA is split into three seasons: power produced during the peak periods of July, August, November and December will be purchased at 120% of the set price; power produced in the three month low demand season will be purchased at 73.50% of the set price; and power produced in the remaining five months of the year will be purchased at 100% of the set price. The PPA sets a first year average purchase price of $53.60 per MW hour. The $53.60 purchase price is escalated each year at a compound annual rate of 2.1% until year 15. From years 16 to 25 of the contract the escalation rate will drop to 0.6% per year.

Power generated by San Emidio is sold to Sierra Pacific Power Corp. (NV Energy) pursuant to a 30 year PURPA PPA that terminates in December 2017. The PPA includes energy and capacity payment components, as well as peak and off-peak rates. Contract prices are adjusted annually on March 1 based upon the Handy-Whitman price index, total steam production plant category, as specified by Nevada Public Utility Commission standards for PURPA contracts.

The power purchase agreement (“PPA”) for the project was signed on December 11, 2009 with the Idaho Power Company. The PPA has a 25 year term with a starting price of $96 per MW-hour and escalates at a variable percentage annually. Idaho Power Company submitted the PPA to the Idaho Public Utilities Commission (“IPUC”) on December 28, 2009. Subsequent to the end of the year, the PPA was approved by the IPUC on May 20, 2010.

Effective May 1, 2008, the Company purchased geothermal rights and a geothermal power plant located in the San Emidio Desert of North Western Nevada. The primary objective of the acquisition was to secure water rights for future development. While the plant was expected to produce positive cash flows, the plant was not expected to generate significant operating profits. The plant has produced positive cash flows for four out of the last seven quarters of full operations. Fluctuations in energy revenues are a product of plant efficiency and the terms of the PPA which is based on an energy plus capacity payment. Rates are adjusted annually (September 1 to September 1) with the energy price component based upon the producer price index for coal and the capacity price component based upon the Handy-Whitman Total Steam Production Plant Index. Premium rates are paid during the months June through September. For the 2008-09 rate period, the kilowatt rates for the premium months ranged between $0.0757 and $0.1182, and ranged between $0.0616 and $0.1037 for non-premium months. For the 2009-10 rate period, the kilowatt rates for the premium months range between $0.0963 and $0.1418, and range between $0.0789 and $0.1274 for non-premium months.

For the year ended March 31, 2010, energy sales totaled $1,743,984, an increase of $327,132 (23%) over the prior year. Energy credit sales increased $19,258 (59%) to $51,695 for the same period. Major increases in expenses for the year ended March 31, 2010 when compared to the prior year were Salaries and related costs at $240,173 (41%) and Repairs and maintenance at $396,410 (198%).

Energy sales revenues were higher in the quarter ended September 30, 2008 due to regular plant production and premium contracted rates. The plant was not as productive in the quarters ended December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2009 due to the down time experienced while extensive repairs and maintenance was conducted. As a product of the repair efforts and capital improvements, the plant has been more productive. For the quarters ended March 31, 2010 and December 31, 2009 the plant produced 31.8% and 14.5% more power; respectively, than in the same quarters in the prior fiscal year.

A loss of $589,082 was incurred for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. Repair costs of over $112,000 were incurred to rebuild and reinstall a pump. Costs that amounted to over $59,000 were incurred to retube an OEC condenser and to install a new gear box. Both repairs resulted in loss of productivity due to over two weeks of downtime.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2009, the San Emidio plant reported a loss of $348,073. Energy production and related revenues increased ($146,030, 46.0%) in the quarter ended December 31, 2009 from the same period in 2008. This is primarily due to efficiencies gained from repairs made to the plant since it was purchased in May 2008. In the quarter ended June 30, 2009, repair costs of over $112,000 were incurred to rebuild and reinstall a pump.

During the last fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, the Company spent over $596,000 making various repairs. Notable repairs were made to electrical breakers and system controls, the pentane storage and transfer system, gear box and drive shaft alignments on all OECs and cooling tower fans, fix leaking condenser tubes, replace turbine inlet gaskets, modify the OEC oil cooler water supply pipelines, replacement of leaking brine valves on the OECs, AHD rebuilt production pumps in 75B-16 and 76-16, and replacement of check valve on production pump 76-16.

% - represents percentage of total operating revenues. The Company receives revenues from geothermal and water rights leases and rental income from its major subsidiary RREI. For the year ended March 31, 2010, the Company’s revenues from geothermal and water rights and rental income totaled $209,544, as compared to $97,098 in 2009 and $121,742 in 2008. The primary cause of the increase in 2010 was the receipt of increased rental income for use of buildings and facilities at Raft River owned by US Geothermal. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010, the Company started collecting rental revenues from RREI for the use of 4 buildings located in Raft River, Idaho. The Company began earning $7,504 per month in January 2009. Geothermal and surface water rights lease revenues have been consistent for the three fiscal years. In 2007, an adjustment was made to record two months of revenues earned in the prior period.

Management Fee Income

For the year ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, management fee income increased by $187,500 to $250,000 compared to the same period in 2008. Management fees are earned by the Company from its subsidiary RREI at a rate of $20,833 per month ($250,000 annual). These fees began when the plant became operational in January 2008. In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, the Company earned 3 months of management fees. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 and 2010, the Company earned fees for an entire year.

Gain on Investment in Subsidiary (Raft River Energy I, LLC)

The Company uses the hypothetical liquidation at book value method (“HLBV”) for allocating of RREI’s profits and losses. This method utilizes the specific terms outlined in the RREI’s operating agreement or other authoritative documents. These terms include cash disbursement terms, associated financial instruments, debt arrangements, and rights to specific revenue streams. The primary element of the profit and loss allocation from inception has been the amount of renewable energy credits earned. Summarized unaudited (based on different fiscal year-end than RREI Financial Statements included in Exhibit 13.2) statements of operations for RREI are as follows:

* - began commercial operations January 3, 2008. Includes nine months of test and development; and three months of normal operations.
% - represents the percentage of total operating revenues.

For the year ended March 31, 2010, RREI’s operating revenues decreased from $5,262,700 to $4,864,927 (7.6% decrease). This decrease was primarily due to loss of the geothermal water resource related to a collar failure that occurred at one of the production wells. The Company’s allocation of RREI’s profits and losses is based upon receiving 70% of revenue from renewable energy credits and 1% of all other profits and losses. The Company’s allocation of profits and losses decreased from $539,815 to $323,929 (40.0% decrease) from the fiscal year 2009 to 2010 primarily due to a decrease in energy production which reduced the energy credit sales earned during the fiscal year ended 2010.

RREI’s net operating loss was $1,505,100 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. This was primarily due to both planned and unplanned maintenance and repairs that led to lower revenues and increased costs. The entire plant was shut down for planned maintenance from April 1, 2009 to April 13, 2009 to replace a turbine damaged during startup. The shut down reduced energy production for that time period. Overall, energy revenue was down approximately $279,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 from the same quarter in 2008. In addition to the shut down, production was down due to loss in temperature as a result of a lap joint leaking at one production well and two pump failures. The pump repairs were substantially complete at September 30, 2009. The repairs on the lap joint were not completely successful and that well continues to suffer lower temperatures. The lower temperatures have reduced the productivity of the plant. Prior to the leak, the plant had averaged 7,588,151 kilowatt hours per month. After the leak, the plant has averaged 6,494,834 kilowatt hours per month (14.4% decrease). The severity of the leak continues to increase with time. A plan to repair this condition has been formulated by the Company and will be implemented upon acceptance of RREI’s other partner.

In December 2008, the reverse osmosis system was placed into operations. Prior to its implementation, the average chemical treatment costs per month were approximately $73,000. After the system was operational, the average monthly treatment costs have been approximately $19,000 (monthly savings of $53,000, 72.6%) .

Corporate Administration

Corporate Administrative costs of $803,417 were incurred for the fiscal year ended March 2010 which were largely consistent with the costs incurred in 2009. Corporate Administrative costs of $753,045 were incurred for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, which was an increase of $173,010 (28.9%) from the prior fiscal year. The primary components of the increases in 2009 were the increases in exchange filing fees ($25,400), insurance ($58,000) and administration office rent ($50,500). The Company moved into a new building in January 2008. Therefore, the 2008 fiscal year only included three months of the higher rental costs for the new building.

For the year ended March 31, 2010, the Company incurred professional and management fees of $1,669,227, which is an increase of $671,775 from 2009. Legal fees that exceeded $316,000 were incurred related to equity offerings, contract reviews and responses to SEC comment letters. Legal fees over $233,000 (over $101,000 in 2009) were paid related the equity offerings as well as meeting other filing requirements. Consulting fees of approximately $147,000 were paid for SOX compliance, review of quarterly filings and tax preparation. Consulting fees from the auditing firm directly related to assistance with the SEC comment letters were approximately $31,000. Similar costs of services related to the equity offerings and the SEC comment letters were not incurred in the same period in 2009.

For the year ended March 31, 2009, professional and management costs increased $151,544 (17.9%) compared to the same period in 2008. The increase was primarily due to additional audit fees, compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley Act and contractors involved in plant support. The financial statement audit fees increased approximately $25,000 due to the larger scope of the audit engagement related to the Company’s new entities. To comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, additional audit fees of approximately $35,000 were incurred and additional consulting fees of $61,300 were incurred for a total of $136,000 for the fiscal year. An incremental amount of approximately $83,000 was paid to outside contractors that supported the operations of our primary subsidiary. These contractors were performing water testing and general plant operational support.

Salary and Related Costs

For the year ended March 31, 2010, our salary and related costs decreased from $1,180,647 to $1,171,752. There was a slight increase in staff (2 management and development staff) added in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2010; however, salary expenses were slightly lower ($8,895, 0.75%) than fiscal year ended 2009. The primary reason was that approximately $376,000 in salary and related costs was capitalized related to management and development efforts for the Neal Hot Springs project. For the year ended March 31, 2009, our salary and related costs increased $563,324 (91.2%) as compared to 2008. During that time period, there were no significant changes in the number of management and development employees, pay scales or other benefits. Prior to January 3, 2008, the Company’s primary subsidiary was in a development stage, and directly involved efforts from management and development employees. Accordingly, the salaries and related costs of approximately $455,000 were allocated to the subsidiary in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. After the subsidiary became operational in 2008, the amount of salary costs from management and development employees were significantly reduced at the subsidiary level and were carried at the corporate level.

Travel and Promotion

For the year ended March 31, 2010, travel and promotion costs decreased $203,066 (39.7%) from the same period in 2009. The Company discontinued certain trade show expenditures which amounted to $227,000 in 2009. Travel and promotion costs for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009 were reasonably consistent with the same period in 2008.

Lease and Equipment Repairs

For the year ended March 31, 2010, lease and equipment costs decreased $77,538 (35.8%) from the prior year. The primary reason for the decrease in the 2010 fiscal year ended December 2010, was utility line reservation fees as noted above were not incurred. For the year ended March 31, 2009, the lease and equipment maintenance costs increased $146,986 (211.5%) as compared to 2008. During the 2009 fiscal year, the Company began lease payments for utility line reservation fees of $101,928. Additional lease payments for geothermal water rights were incurred that amounted to over $81,000. Of that amount, $41,000 was for geothermal lease rights for the exploration activities conducted by the new joint venture company Gerlach Geothermal, LLC.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe our cash and liquid investments at March 31, 2010 are adequate to fund our general operating activities through March 31, 2011 including limited drilling at Neal Hot Springs and general development support activities at San Emidio. Additional funding will be needed to finance the expansion of production volumes at Raft River and the development of the San Emidio, Nevada and Neal Hot Springs, Oregon projects. In addition to government loans and grants discussed below, we anticipate that the additional funding may be raised through the issuance of equity and/or through the sale of ownership interest in tax credits and benefits.

The current financial credit crisis is not anticipated to impact the ability of our customers, Idaho Power Company and Sierra Pacific Power, to pay for their power. This power is sold under long-term contracts at fixed prices to large utilities. Projections for 2010 indicate that both projects, Raft River and San Emidio, will generate positive cash flows to the Company. However, the current status of the credit and equity markets could delay our project development activities while the Company seeks to obtain economic credit terms or a favorable equity market price to further the drilling and construction activities. The Company continues discussions with potential investors to evaluate alternatives for funding at the corporate and project levels. We are also pursuing available DOE loans and guarantees in order to reduce interest costs for any debt instruments the Company may require. At the current market price for the Company’s stock, we do not anticipate that additional funding will result from the exercise of current stock options or warrants in the near future. In these difficult financial times, the Company has also implemented procedures to conserve cash, reduce costs and maximize revenue. At the corporate level, we have cancelled non-essential consulting contracts and are reducing all non-critical expenditures. At the project level, Raft River and San Emidio are increasing efforts to reduce operating costs and look for additional cost savings.

On March 16, 2010, the Company closed a private placement of securities issued pursuant to a securities purchase agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") entered into with several institutional investors, pursuant to which the Company issued 8,209,519 shares of common stock at a price of $1.05 per share for gross proceeds of approximately $8.6 million (the "Private Placement"). Pursuant to the terms of the Private Placement, each investor was also issued a common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant") exercisable for 50% of the number of shares of common stock purchased by the investor. The Company paid commissions to agents in connection with the Private Placement in the amount of approximately $516,000 and issued warrants to purchase up to 246,285 shares of common stock. The net proceeds of the offering (approximately $8.0 million) will be used by the Company to further develop its Neal Hot Springs geothermal project and for general working capital purposes.

On October 30, 2009, the Company was awarded $3.77 million in Recovery Act funding for the exploration and development of its San Emidio geothermal power project using advanced geophysical exploration techniques. This award was categorized under the “Innovative Exploration and Drilling Projects” section of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The project at San Emidio will apply innovative, seismic and satellite imagery techniques along with state-of-the-art structural modeling, to locate large aperture fractures that represent high-productivity geothermal drilling targets.

On August 17, 2009, the Company completed a private placement of 8,100,000 Subscription Receipts (“Receipt”) at $1.35 CDN per Receipt for aggregate gross proceeds of CDN $10,935,000. Each Receipt was exchanged on December 17, 2009 for one share of common stock of the Company and one half of one common stock purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one additional share of common stock of the Company for $1.75 for 24 months from closing. The placement agents have been paid an aggregate cash fee of CDN $656,100, representing 6% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the offering, and have been issued compensation options, exercisable for 24 months, entitling the placement agents to purchase up to 243,000 shares of common stock of the Company at $1.22. The proceeds provided funds to drill production size wells at Neal Hot Springs to increase production capacity to 22 MW and allow a 30-day flow test to verify the well reservoir capacity. Completion of drilling is a condition precedent to the funding from the DOE loan program, if our application is approved.

On February 26, 2009 U.S. Geothermal submitted an application for the Neal Hot Springs project to the DOE’s Energy Efficiency, Renewable Energy and Advanced Transmission and Distribution Solicitation loan guarantee program under Title XVII of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. The Company was notified that its project application is complete, the power plant technology choice qualifies as new or improved under the program, and the project has been selected to proceed in the project loan process. Although we have not yet received approval, the DOE guaranteed loan is expected to provide up to 75% of the $119 million estimated capital cost of Stage I up to a maximum loan amount of $102.2 million. The capital cost has increased to $119 million from prior estimates of $106 million due to costs of labor, updated vendor pricing and construction materials, project loan costs and contingencies. Detailed design of a binary cycle power plant utilizing significantly improved technology is currently in progress with construction expected to begin in mid 2010. The new plant, designed to deliver approximately 22 MW of power net to the grid is scheduled to begin commercial operations in early 2012. The DOE guaranteed loan is anticipated to be a combined construction and term loan and provide the project with a low cost annual interest rate. We expect that we will be required to drill up to 8 additional wells as a condition precedent to drawing on the DOE guaranteed loan, if it is approved.

Potential Acquisitions

The Company intends to continue its growth through the acquisition of ownership or leasehold interests in properties and/or property rights that it believes will add to the value of the Company’s geothermal resources, and through possible mergers with or acquisitions of operating power plants and geothermal or other renewable energy properties.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Certain accounting policies involve judgments and uncertainties to such an extent that there is reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could have been reported under different conditions, or if different assumptions had been made. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for the financial statements.

-63-

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers cash deposits and highly liquid investments to be cash and cash equivalents for financial reporting presentation on the consolidated balance sheet and statement of cash flows. The Company subscribes to the accounting standards that define cash equivalents as highly liquid, short-term instruments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash, which are generally defined investments that have original maturity dates of less than three months. With the large value of funds invested in short-term deposits, small variations in short term interest rates may materially affect the value of cash equivalents. Investments in government obligations accumulate higher interest, but the principal balance is not insured by the FDIC.

Property, Plant and Equipment

During the development stage of operations, the Company has purchased and otherwise acquired geothermal properties for the production of power. The geothermal properties include: drilled wells, power plant components, power plant support components, land, land rights, surface water rights, and geothermal water rights. The Company’s first power plant became operational in January 2008. When the plant became operational, plant property and equipment costs were charged to operations in a systematic manner based upon the estimated useful lives of the individual assets. The factors and assumptions that comprise this allocation process will be based upon the best information available to us, and will be evaluated, at least, annually for viability. If it is determined that our cost allocations have produced results that vary significantly from the conditions surrounding the value of the Company’s geothermal properties, a gain or loss adjustment will be made in the period in which this determination is made. The cost allocation or amortization process is not intended to present the fair market value of our geothermal properties; rather to allocate the actual historical costs of those properties over their service lives.

Income Taxes

According to generally accepted accounting practices, entities must recognize assets and/or liabilities that originate with the differences in revenues and expenses presented for financial reporting purposes and those revenues and expenses that are utilized to comply with federal and state income tax law. Often deductions can be accelerated for income tax purposes, thus creating temporary timing differences. Other items (generally non-allowable expenses) do not reverse over time, and are considered to be permanent differences. These types of costs are, typically, not factored into the deferred income tax asset or liability calculation. The Company’s primary element that impacts the liability or asset calculation relates to the operating losses generated in its early stages of operation that will be allowed to offset future earnings. Stock-based compensation is another significant area that impacts that recognition of deferred income taxes. Compensation that has been provided to employees and contractors based upon the value of the issuance of stock options is reported as an operating cost. However, this compensation is not an allowable deduction for income tax purposes. At the end of the fiscal year, the Company’s significant tax differences would ultimately result in the recognition of an asset; however, due to the uncertainly surrounding future earnings, an allowance has been calculated that effectively removes the asset. The Company continues to track the financial elements that comprise the deferred income tax calculation and will remove or reduce the asset allowance if the Company is determined to be in position where it is likely to produce earnings.

-64-

Stock-Based Compensation

Effective April 1, 2007, the Company 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 was present when the Company originally issued stock options in a foreign currency (Canadian dollars) to employees before the beginning of the fiscal year. 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.

The Company awards stock options for compensation to non-employees for services performed and/or services performed above and beyond expectations. After the services have been completed, the awards are made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The fair value of the options are determined on the date the options are awarded according to several factors that include the exercise price of the option, the current price of the underlying share, the expected life of the options and the expected volatility of the stock. Generally speaking, a longer life and higher expected volatility yields a higher value of the option. In accordance with appropriate accounting guidance, the Company amortizes the value of these options as operating expense during the period in which they vest. Stock options awarded to Company employees are also valued on the date they are awarded. However, the value of these options are capitalized and expensed over the vesting period. The current vesting period for all options is eighteen months. The nature of the services provided determines whether the value will be expensed or added to the value of a Company asset. To date, no services have been provided directly related to the construction of property and equipment, thus, all services have been charged to operations.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Risk on Investments

At March 31, 2010, the Company held investments of $13,025,588 in money market accounts. These are highly liquid investments that are subject to risks associated with changes in interest rates. The money market funds are invested in governmental obligations with minimal fluctuations in interest rates and fixed terms.

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company is subject to limited amount of foreign currency risks associated with cash deposits maintained in Canadian currency. The Company has utilized and it is continuing to utilize the Canadian markets for raising capital. By proper timing of the transactions and then maintenance of adequate operating funds in other financial resources, the Company has been able to mitigate some of the risks surrounding foreign currency exchanges. At fiscal year end, the Company did not hold any deposits in Canadian currency. Also, the Canadian currency exchange rate has been reasonably consistent over the past fiscal year. As a matter of standard operating practice, the Company does not maintain large balances of Canadian currency; and, substantially, all operating transactions are conducted in U.S. dollars.

The strike price for the Company’s stock option plan has been stated in Canadian dollars as the plan has been administered through our Vancouver office and Pacific Corporate Trust Company. This subjects the Company to foreign currency risk in addition to the normal market risks associated with the stock price fluctuations. A long-term liability has been established to reflect the fair value of the stock options payable. The strike price on future option grants will be stated in US dollars.

Commodity Price Risk

The Company is exposed to risks surrounding the volatility of energy prices. These risks are impacted by various circumstances surrounding the energy production from natural gas, nuclear, hydro, solar, coal and oil. The Company has been able to mitigate, to a certain extent, this risk by entering into long-term power purchase contracts for both the Raft River and San Emidio power plants. These types of arrangement will be the model for power purchase contracts planned for future power plants.

Consolidated Financial Statements

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of U.S. Geothermal Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of U.S. Geothermal Inc. as of March 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008. We also have audited U.S. Geothermal Inc.'s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). U.S. Geothermal Inc.'s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and an opinion on the company's internal control over financial reporting 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included 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, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting include obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for out opinions.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

U.S. Geothermal Inc.
Page 2 of 2

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluations of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material aspects, the consolidated financial position of U.S. Geothermal Inc. as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the three years ended March 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, U.S. Geothermal Inc. maintained, in all material aspects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

U.S. GEOTHERMAL INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2010

(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 roll-back 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)	USG Gerlach LLC (organized in the State of Delaware);
vii)	USG Oregon LLC (organized in the State of Delaware)
viii)	Oregon USG Holdings, LLC (organized in the State of Delaware); and
ix)	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 consolidated through July 2006, after which the entity is recorded under the equity method (note 4).

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, 2010 and 2009, 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 a commercial bank in Boise, Idaho. The accounts are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per legal entity through December 31, 2013. At March 31, 2010, the Company held no deposits not subject to FDIC insurance. The money market funds totaled $13,025,588, and are invested in government backed securities and not subject to deposit insurance.

Equity Securities

We determine the appropriate classification of marketable securities at the time of purchase and reevaluate this designation as of each balance sheet date. We classify 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.

Allocation of Profits and Losses from Subsidiaries with Complex Ownership Structures

For subsidiaries that have contractually complex ownership rights, benefits and obligations, the Company utilizes the hypothetical liquidation at book value method (“HLBV”) for allocating profits and losses. This method utilizes the specific terms outlined in the subsidiary’s operating agreement or other authoritative documents. These terms may include cash disbursement terms, associated financial instruments, debt arrangements, and rights to specific revenue streams.

According to the operating agreement, upon liquidation and, after payment of all outstanding debts, any remaining funds would be distributed to the Members in accordance to their positive capital account balance ratio. Certain contract provisions contain allocation of profit and loss items to arrive at the capital account balances. Since the Company is currently the minority member recording their investment in RREI under the equity method, we utilize a hypothetical liquidation at book value at each balance sheet date to value our investment.

For our investment in RREI, the investment will change based upon actual capital contributions, actual cash distributions, 70% of revenue from renewable energy credits, and 1% of all other profit and loss items. See Note 5.

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 on a geothermal reservoir basis. If a geothermal reservoir is abandoned, the associated costs that have been capitalized are charged to income in the year of abandonment. Major improvements that significantly increase the useful lives and/or capabilities of the assets are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as 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	4
Power plant, buildings and improvements	15 to 30
Wells	30
Well pumps and components	5 to 15
Pipelines	30
Transmission lines	30

-8-

Intangible Assets

All costs directly associated with the acquisition of geothermal and 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 underling 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., PPAs), 
     -     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. 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 in 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 or when circumstances or events occur that may impact the fair value of the assets. The fair value of geothermal property is primarily evaluated based upon the present value of expected revenues directly associated with those assets. An impairment loss would be recognized if the carrying amount of a capitalized asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. Management believes that there have not been any circumstances that have warranted the recognition of losses due to the impairment of long-lived assets as of March 31, 2010.

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 an 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 award 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-

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, 2010 and 2009, 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, 2010 and 2009 were 96,404,418 and 69,655,857; 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 (“GST”) 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

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. Revenues from energy credits 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. Management fee income is recognized when the services have been provided. Royalties and Lease revenues are recognized as the resource has been utilized and other contractual obligations have been met.

Revenue Source

All of the Company’s direct and indirect operating revenues originate from energy production from its interests in geothermal power plants located in the states of Idaho and Nevada. All of the management fees and royalty revenues are earned from its subsidiary located in South Eastern Idaho. All of the power sales are earned from a power plant located in North Western Nevada.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Fair Value Measurements

In January 2010, FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Update 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements (“Update 2010-06”). Update 2010-06 is intended to improve disclosures originally defined in accounting standards. Update 2010-06 requires new discloses summarized as follows:

1)	Transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2. A reporting entity should disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and describe the reasons for the transfers.
2)	Activity in level 3 fair value measurements. In the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), a reporting entity should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements.

The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this Update. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a direct quantitative material impact on its financial position or results of operations. Management expects that it will have an impact on the content of future financial statement disclosures.

Subsequent Events

On January 2010, FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Update 2010-09, Subsequent Events (Topic 958): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements (“Update 2010-09”). Update 2010-09 issued to provide clarification of questions that have arisen in practice about Topic 855, Subsequent Events. This Update addresses both the interaction of the requirements of this Topic with the SEC’s reporting requirements and the intended breadth of the reissuance disclosure provision related to subsequent events. Amendments of this Update will be effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The Company has adopted this Update.

Compensation-Stock Compensation

On January 2010, FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Update 2010-13, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Effect of Denominating the Exercise Price of a Share-Based Payment Award in the Currency of the Market in Which the Underlying Equity Security Trades. (“Update 2010-13”). Update 2010-13 provides amendments to Topic 718 to clarify that an employee share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. Amendments of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this Update. The adoption of this Update may have an impact in the statement of financial position.

NOTE 5 – INVESTMENT IN SUBSIDIARIES

Raft River Energy I is a joint venture between the Company and Raft River I Holdings, LLC a subsidiary of Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. An Operating Agreement governs the rights and responsibilities of both parties. RREI is a voting interest entity recorded on the financial records of the Company as an equity investment. For book and income tax purposes, Raft River I Holdings, LLC will receive a greater proportion of the share of losses and other income tax benefits. Additionally, during the initial years of operations Raft River I Holdings, LLC will receive a larger allocation of cash distributions.

RREI resulted from an August 9, 2006 agreement between the Company and Raft River Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of the Goldman Sachs Group, for construction financing of Phase I of the Raft River project. To accommodate the construction financing, the Company sold 50% of its ownership in Raft River Energy to Raft River Holdings, LLC. As a result of the agreements, the Company was required to contribute cash and property sufficient to complete a 10 megawatt power plant, and Raft River Holdings was required to contribute $34,170,100.

-12-

As of March 31, 2010, the Company has contributed $17,953,640 in cash and property to the project, while Raft River Holdings, LLC has contributed $34,170,100.

For periods prior to August 2006, the Company was the 100% owner of RREI and consolidated the loss. For the period August 2006 to September 2009, U.S. Geothermal Inc. recorded RREI under the equity method of accounting for investments in subsidiaries based on the HLBV method.

Effective December 26, 2008, the fiscal year for RREI was changed to a calendar year due to the conversion of Goldman Sachs to a bank holding company. RREI’s latest financial information is summarized as follows:

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, 2010, the Company had net deferred tax assets calculated at an expected rate, noted in the table below, of approximately $4,897,000 (March 31, 2009 - $4,018,000). 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, 2010 and 2009.

-16-

The significant components of the net deferred tax asset calculated with the estimated effective income tax rate at March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009 were as follows:

		March 31,			March 31,
		2010			2009
Deferred tax assets*:
Net operating loss carry forward	$	4,611,000		$	4,217,000
Stock based compensation		512,000			-
Deferred tax liabilities*:
Depreciation and amortization		(226,000	)		(199,000	)
Net deferred income tax asset		4,897,000			4,018,000
Deferred tax asset valuation allowance		(4,897,000	)		(4,018,000	)
Net deferred tax asset	$	-		$	-
* - significant components of deferred assets and liabilities are considered to be long-term.

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

	For the years ended March 31,
	2010		2009		2008
U.S. Federal statutory rate	34.0%		34.0%		34.0%
Average State income tax, net of federal tax effect	3.8		4.2		5.4
Production tax credits	(2.0	)	(2.0	)	(2.0	)
Net effective tax rate	35.8%		36.2%		39.4%

At March 31, 2010, the Company had net income tax operating loss carry forwards of approximately $13,678,000 ($10,187,000 in March 31, 2009), which expire in the years 2023 through 2030. The change in the allowance account from March 31, 2009 to March 31, 2010 was $879,000.

Although we believe that our 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

We 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 our financial statements. For the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, no income tax expense has been realized as a result of our 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. Our evaluation of income tax positions included the fiscal years ended March 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007 which could be subject to agency examinations as of March 31, 2010. No filings are currently under examination. No adjustments have been made to reduce our 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 of option of $5,345 the end of the lease term scheduled for November 2012. At March 31, 2010, equipment under capital lease amounted to $53,450 ($14,253 accumulated amortization). The schedule of minimum lease payments is as follows:

Years Ending March 31,		Principal		Interest		Totals
2011	$	11,837	$	2,479	$	14,316
2012		12,736		1,580		14,316
2013		14,372		518		14,890
	$	38,945	$	4,577	$	43,522

NOTE 10 – PROMISORY NOTE PAYABLE

On July 7, 2009, the Company financed the purchase 40 acres of land and a building on property adjacent to our San Emidio power plant facility with a promissory note. The note for $230,000, is payable in 24 successive monthly installments commencing on the second month following the date of disbursement. The first 23 payments consist of interest only on the outstanding principal at 3.25% per annum. The entire principal and the accrued interest are due on the final payment. The note is unsecured. In the event of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, application for the appointment of a receiver or filing of a voluntary or involuntary petition in bankruptcy by or against the Company, the holder may declare this note immediately due and payable in full.

NOTE 11 – SUBSCRIPTION RECEIPTS/STOCK ISSUABLE

In the second quarter ended September 30, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement to privately place approximately 8,100,000 Subscription Receipts (“Receipt”) at $1.35 CDN ($1.22) per Receipt for gross proceeds of approximately $10,935,000 CDN ($9,882,000). Each Receipt was automatically exchanged, without additional consideration on the exchange date for one (“Unit”) of the Company. The exchange date was December 17, 2009. Each Unit consisted of one share of common stock of the Company and one half of one common stock purchase warrant (a "Warrant"). Each Warrant entitled the holder thereof to acquire one additional share of common stock of the Company for a period of 24 months following the closing of the offering for $1.75 per share of common stock.

NOTE 12 - CAPITAL STOCK

The Company is authorized to issue 250,000,000 shares of common stock. All shares have equal voting rights, are non-assessable and have one vote per share. Voting rights are not cumulative and, therefore, the holders of more than 50% of the common stock could, if they choose to do so, elect all of the directors of the Company.

On March 16, 2010, the Company completed a private placement stock offering where the Company issued 8,209,519 shares of Common Stock at a price of $1.05 per share for gross proceeds of $8.6 million ($7,922,396 net proceeds). Each investor was, also, issued a common share purchase warrant (“Warrant”) exercisable for 50% of the number of shares of Common Stock purchased. Each Warrant is exercisable at $1.25 per share for a period of five years beginning September 16, 2010.

-18-

During the quarter ended March 31, 2010, the Company issued 75,000 common shares to an employee of the Company upon exercise of stock options at a strike price of $0.90.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2009, the Company issued 181,375 common shares to employees and consultants of the Company upon exercise of stock options at a strike prices between $0.72 and $0.92.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, the Company verified an adjustment of 5 shares required for entitlement shares to be issued for the stock consolidations of Consolidated Mango (1999) and US Cobalt (2003) shares. These shares remain in escrow until the Consolidated Mango and US Cobalt shares are redeemed for U.S. Geothermal Inc. common shares.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2008, the Company issued 22,134 common shares to an officer of the Company upon exercise of stock options at a strike price of $0.60 CDN.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2008, the Company entered into an agreement with a Canadian investment dealer, in which an underwriter agreed to purchase 4,260,000 units of the Company’s equity interests. Each unit comprised one common share of the Company’s stock and one half of one common share purchase warrant. The initial offering, completed on April 28, 2008, generated gross proceeds $10,011,000 CDN (approximately $10,154,458) at a price of $2.35 CDN per share. Each warrant will entitle the holder the right to acquire one additional common share of the Company for a period of 24 months following the closing of the offering for $3.00 per share. In addition, the Underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional 2,122,500 units at the issue price of the offering, resulting in the issuance of a total of 6,382,500 units for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $15 million CDN.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2008, the Company issued 290,000 common shares at a price of $2.70 per share to the Kosmos Company in exchange for a favorable amendment to the existing royalty agreement. The royalty agreement is applicable to the operations of the newly acquired San Emidio plant.

NOTE 13 - STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company has a stock option plan (the “Stock Option Plan”) for the purpose of attracting and motivating directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Corporation and advancing the interests of the Corporation. The Stock Option Plan is a 10% rolling plan approved by shareholders in September 2006, whereby the Company can grant options to the extent of 10% of the current outstanding common shares. Under the plan, all forfeited and exercised options can be replaced with new offerings. As of March 31, 2010, the Company can issue stock option grants totaling up to 7,864,778 shares. Options are granted for a term of up to five years from the date of grant. Stock options granted generally vest over a period of eighteen months, with 25% vesting on the date of grant and 25% vesting every six months thereafter. Effective April 1, 2007, all grants will be stated in U.S. dollars. The Company recognizes compensation expense using the straight-line method of amortization. Historically, the Company has issued new shares to satisfy exercises of stock options and the Company expects to issue new shares to satisfy any future exercises of stock options. At March 31, 2010, the Company had 5,729,875 options granted and outstanding.

-19-

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:

	Year Ended March 31,
	2010	2009	2008
Dividend yield	0	0	0
Expected volatility	71-93%	71-82%	71-140%
Risk free interest rate	0.46-1.32%	1.74-2.23%	1.74-5.10%
Expected life (years)	3.17	3.25	3.18

-20-

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

On April 1, 2008, the Company adopted the provisions related to its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. 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).

-22-

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, 2010 at fair value on a recurring basis:

		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Assets:
Money market accounts	$	13,025,588	$	13,025,588	$	-	$	-
Investment in equity securities		210,975		-		210,975		-
	$	13,236,563	$	13,025,588	$	210,975	$	-

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.

-23-

Changes in Level 3 assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the years ended March 31, 2010 and 2009:

		Amounts
Investment in equity securities:
Balance at March 31, 2008	$	-
Purchases		88,515

The equity securities purchased in June 2008 are actively traded on a stock exchange; however, the securities held by the Company are subject to trading restrictions. Therefore, the investment was moved from Level 3 to Level 2.

NOTE 15 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

At March 31, 2010 and 2009 the amounts of $1,897 and $2,491, respectively, are payable to directors and officers of the Company. These amounts are unsecured and due on demand.

The Company’s subsidiary Raft River Energy I, LLC (“RREI”) owed the Company $356,571 and $271,475 at March 31, 2010 and 2009; respectively, for operating and maintenance expenses. The receivable balance is comprised of unsecured demand obligations due within twelve months. The Company received the following revenues from RREI:

		Year Ended March 31,
		2010		2009		2008
Management fees	$	250,000		250,000	$	62,500
Lease and royalties		209,544		97,098		121,742
	$	459,544	$	347,098	$	184,242

The Company’s equity investment in RREI is adjusted monthly for our share of the profit and loss based on various revenue stream and cost allocations. Our share of the costs to RREI associated with the above noted management fees and lease and royalty revenues are deemed immaterial at this time, and related U.S. Geothermal, Inc.’s revenues and RREI costs have not been eliminated in the financial statements.

NOTE 16 - DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN AND U.S. GAAP

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The material difference in respect to these financial statements between U.S. GAAP and Canadian GAAP is reflected in the recording of Property, Plant and Equipment. Under Canadian GAAP, development and exploration costs associated with the Raft River project (property lease payments, geological consulting fees, well monitoring and permitting, etc.) were recorded as a capital asset. Under U.S. GAAP, these amounts are expensed.

As a result of the above, under Canadian GAAP the following line items in the consolidated balance sheets and income statements would have been presented as follows:

BLM Lease Agreements

Idaho

On August 1, 2007, the Company signed a geothermal resources lease agreement with the United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”). The contract requires an annual payment of $3,502 including processing fees. The primary term of the agreement is 10 years. After the primary term, the Company has the right to extend the contract. BLM has the right to terminate the contract upon written notice if the Company does not comply with the terms of the agreement.

San Emidio

The lease contracts are for approximately 21,905 acres of land and geothermal rights located in the San Emidio Desert, Nevada. The lease contracts have primary terms of 10 years. Per federal regulations applicable for the contracts, the lessee has the option to extend the primary lease term another 40 years if the BLM does not need the land for any other purpose and the lessee is maintaining production at commercial quantities. The leases require the lessee to conduct operations in a manner that minimizes adverse impacts to the environment.

Gerlach

The Gerlach Geothermal LLC assets are comprised of two BLM geothermal leases and one private lease totaling 3,615 acres. Both BLM leases have a royalty rate which is based upon 10% of the value of the resource at the wellhead. The amounts are calculated according to a formula established by Minerals Management Service (“MMS”). 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. Per federal regulations applicable for the contracts, the lessee has the option to extend the primary lease term another 40 years if the BLM does not need the land for any other purpose and the lessee is maintaining production at commercial quantities. The leases state annual lease payments of $5,414, not including processing fees, and expire October 31, 2012.

Office Lease

The Company entered into a 3 year lease contract effective January 1, 2008 through January 31, 2011, for general office space for an executive office located in Boise, Idaho. The lease payments are due in monthly installments that start at $5,637 per month and increase annually to $5,981 per month. The Company incurred total office lease expenses for years ended March 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008, totaling $70,026, $67,987 and $11,275; respectively.

Raft River Energy I LLC
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2009

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Raft River Energy I LLC (the "Company") is a limited liability company organized in the State of Delaware by U.S. Geothermal Inc. on August 18, 2005, for the purpose of constructing and operating a geothermal power plant located near Malta, Idaho. The Company’s power plant is considered to be phase I of a Raft River, Idaho geothermal project expected to consist of three phases. As defined in the Membership Admission agreement, the Company is owned by U.S. Geothermal Inc. and Raft River I Holdings LLC, which is a Delaware limited liability company that is a subsidiary of The Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (collectively referred to as “the members”). As defined in the Management Services Agreements, U.S. Geothermal Services LLC, (a wholly owned subsidiary of U.S. Geothermal Inc.) is the Company’s Operator.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting Method

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

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are stated at their estimated net realizable value. The Company has considered the economic conditions, historical trends, contractual terms and financial stability of its major customer when calculating an allowance for uncollectible accounts. At each fiscal year end, management determined that all accounts receivable were collectible and an accrual for an allowance for doubtful accounts was not necessary. Uncollectible accounts are removed when they are deemed uncollectible. Recovered bad debts are recorded as income in the period collected.

Allocation of Profits and Losses

The Company utilizes the hypothetical liquidation at book value method (“HLBV”) for allocating profits and losses. This method utilizes the specific terms outlined in the entity’s organizational contracts and other authoritative documents. These terms include cash disbursement terms, associated financial instruments, debt arrangements, and rights to specific revenue streams.

According to the operating agreement, upon liquidation and, after payment of all outstanding debts, any remaining funds would be distributed to the Members in accordance to their positive capital account balance ratio. Certain contract provisions contain allocation of profit and loss items to arrive at the capital account balances. See Note 8.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash deposits and short term instruments with maturities of no more than ninety days when acquired.

Concentration of Risk

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents consisted of commercial bank deposits and a money market account. All cash equivalents are held in a commercial bank located in Boise, Idaho. Deposits held in the regular checking account are subject to Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 (level extended through December 31, 2013). The Company’s cash deposits, at December 31, 2009, totaled $190,591 ($110,591 was not subject to FDIC insurance). The money market funds, at December 31, 2009, totaled $20,266, and were not subject to FDIC insurance.

Contributed Capital and Membership Structure

Agreements between U.S. Geothermal Inc. and Raft River Holdings LLC were completed for construction financing of Phase I of the Raft River project. To accommodate the construction financing, U.S. Geothermal, Inc. sold 50% of its ownership in the Company to Raft River Holdings in August 2006, with U.S. Geothermal Inc. owning 500 Class B member units and Raft River Holdings owning 500 Class A member units.

As of December 31, 2009, U.S. Geothermal Inc. has contributed $17,953,640 ($17,504,708, net of distributions of $448,932) in cash and property to the project, while Raft River I Holdings LLC has contributed $34,143,100 ($33,943,416, net of distributions of $199,684) in cash. Profits and losses have been allocated according to the HLBV method. See Note 8.

Estimates

The preparation of 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 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 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 financial position and results of operations.

Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts receivable-related party, 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.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates its long-term assets annually for impairment, or when circumstances or events occur that may impact the fair value of the assets. The fair value of geothermal property is primarily evaluated based upon the present value of expected cash flows directly associated with those assets. An impairment loss would be recognized if the carrying amount of a capitalized asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. Management believes that there have not been any circumstances that have warranted the recognition of losses due to the impairment of long-lived assets as of December 31, 2009, December 26, 2008, November 28, 2008 and November 30, 2007.

Inventory

Inventory consists of supplies and replacement parts needed to maintain the power plant and are not intended for resale. Upon purchase, items are recorded at cost and maintained at the lesser of cost or fair market value. Inventory items are charged to operations in the period they are utilized.

Lease Arrangements

Arrangements which potentially convey the right to use property, plant, or equipment for a stated period of time are analyzed in accordance with financial reporting pronouncements that address determining whether an arrangement contains a lease to assess whether they should be accounted for as leases. For any arrangements that are found to meet the definition of a lease, an assessment is made as to whether they are capital leases or operating leases in accordance with accounting standards.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Costs of acquisition of geothermal properties are capitalized on a geothermal reservoir basis. If a geothermal reservoir is abandoned, the costs thereof are charged to income in the year of abandonment. Property, plant and equipment are recorded at historical cost. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset. Major improvements that significantly increase the useful lives and/or the capabilities of the assets are capitalized. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.

Estimated useful lives by asset categories are summarized as follows:

	Estimated useful
Asset Categories	Lives in years
Furniture, vehicle and other equipment	4
Power plant, buildings and improvements	15 to 30
Wells	30
Well pumps and components	5 to 15
Pipelines	30
Transmission lines	30

Revenue

Revenue Recognition

Energy Sales

The Company’s primary operating revenue originates from electrical power generated by the Company’s geothermal power plant. The revenue is recognized when the power is produced and delivered to the customer who is reasonably assured to be able to pay under the terms defined in the Power Purchase Agreement (PPA).

Renewable Energy Credits

Revenues from Renewable Energy Credits (“RECs”) 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. Each REC is certified by Western Electricity Coordinating Council (“WREGIS”) and sold under a REC Purchase and Sales Agreement.

Revenue Source

All of the Company’s energy sales are received from one major power company that, primarily, operates in the State of Idaho. All of the power generated originates from the one power plant that utilizes a geothermal reservoir located in southeastern Idaho. Over 99% of the accounts receivable balance at each fiscal year end represented a balance due from one major customer.

The FASB has established general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued, as follows:

• The period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements;
• The circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements; and
• The disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date.

This standard is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. Subsequent events have been evaluated through March 31, 2010, which is the date the financial statements were issued.

Codify Accounting Standards

The FASB has established the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) as the single source of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities, effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The ASC supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards and is referenced in all disclosures. All other non-grandfathered non-SEC accounting literature not included in the codification will become non-authoritative.

Well Field Lease Contract

On November 2, 2006, the Company signed a lease contract with a primary term of 20 years for the groundwater rights needed for cooling purposes at the Facility payable to U.S. Geothermal Inc. (“lessor”). The annual rate of $90,000 is based upon the facility’s expected needs of 900 acre feet per annum (“a.f.a.”) ($10,000 per 100 a.f.a). Based upon the needs of the facility and proper notice given by the lessor, the contract allows for an increase in the amount of water available for lease according to the noted rate. The payments are due annually within ten business days following the anniversary of the (“placed in service”) date. The initial placed in service date was January 3, 2008, which is the date the facility became commercially operational. During the fiscal year ended November 28, 2008, the Company paid the lessor the “initial rent payment” of $90,000 due for the period of time from the contract date to the initial placed in service date, as well as an additional $74,475 for current year lease costs.

The schedule of estimated lease payments for the primary contract term is as follows:

For the Fiscal Year Ended		Amounts
2010	$	90,000
2011		90,000
2012		90,000

The Company has entered into several lease agreements with terms expiring up to December 1, 2033, for geothermal properties adjoining the Raft River Geothermal Property, which includes the ground lease related to the power plant. The schedule of estimated annual lease payments is as follows:

For the Fiscal Year Ended		*Amounts
2010	$	119,481
2011		120,600
2012		120,936
2013		121,287
2014		121,357
Thereafter		1,529,079
Total	$	2,132,740

*The schedule includes the expected annual related party well field lease payments described in Note 4.

The terms of the management services agreement and the well field lease contract are described in Note 4.

Power Purchase Agreement

The Company signed a twenty year power purchase agreement dated December 29, 2004 with Idaho Power Company for sale of power generated from its planned phase one power plant. It has been determined this meets the definition of a lease arrangement under current accounting pronouncements and is accounted for as an operating lease. As there is no minimum payment, lease income will be recognized as revenue when sales of power occur.

Power Transmission

The Company has also signed a transmission agreement with Bonneville Power Administration for transmission of the electricity from this plant to Idaho Power, and a contract to sell the renewable energy credits for the first ten years to Holy Cross Energy.

NOTE 6 - MEMBERS' INTERESTS

The Company has issued two classes of member units, the Class A units and the Class B units. Each class of ownership gives the owner participating rights in the business and results in equity ownership risks. The rights attached to the different classes will vary over time, in accordance with the terms of the Membership Admission Agreement. The agreement requires the Company to track separately the capital accounts of the members after November 24, 2006. The profits and losses of the Company are allocated based upon the HLBV method as discussed in Note 2. For income tax purposes, the Class A units will receive a greater proportion of the share of losses and other income tax benefits. This includes the allocation of production tax credits, which will be distributed 99% to the Class A units and 1% to the class B units during the first 10 years of production.

Raft River Energy I LLC
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2009

Under the terms of the Membership Admission Agreement, as of November 28, 2008, Raft River I Holdings LLC, has contributed their full obligation of $34.2 million in cash, and U.S. Geothermal Inc. has contributed $17.9 million in assets to the Company. U.S. Geothermal Inc.’s contribution consisted of $16.5 in cash and approximately $1.4 million in property. Based upon the Operating Agreement, loans made by Members to the Company shall not be considered capital contributions. Based upon the advances made to the Company by a Member shall be payable only out of the Company’s property in accordance with the terms and the conditions upon which such advances are made.

NOTE 7 – INCOME TAX

The Company is a Limited Liability Corporation that is treated as a partnership for tax purposes with each of the Members accounting for their share of the tax attributes and liabilities. Accordingly, there are no deferred income tax amounts recorded in these financial statements.

NOTE 8 – ERROR CORRECTION

After re-examining the provisions of the Membership Admission Agreement, Management determined that the profit and loss allocation method applied in the prior periods was not consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. This change is considered to be a correction of an error. To fairly allocate profits and losses between the members, the Company adopted the HLBV method. The adjustments reallocate the member equity balances as if the profits and losses had been allocated with the HLBV method from the Company’s inception. Net earnings/losses or total member’s equity balances are not affected by the reallocation.

We assessed the materiality of this error on financial statements for prior periods and concluded that the error was not material to any periods presented. Accordingly, the Balance Sheet and Statement of Members' Equity herein have been revised to correct for the cumulative amount of this error in fiscal year 2009.

NOTE 9 – FISCAL YEAR-END CHANGE

Due to changes imposed on Member A’s parent company, the Company was required to change its fiscal year-end from November to December, beginning with fiscal 2009. This change in the Company’s fiscal year-end resulted in a one-month transition period that began on November 29, 2008 and ended on December 26, 2008. Fiscal year 2009 began on December 27, 2008 and ended on December 31, 2009. Financial information for this fiscal transition period is included in these financial statements.

The following summarized financial information was presented to compare operating results for the transition period:
