Report of Independent Auditors

To the Board of Directors of Endeavour Energy Norge AS (formerly OER oil AS):

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Endeavour Energy Norge AS (formerly OER oil AS) and its subsidiary as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated profit and loss statements and cash flow statements for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2003. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and Norway. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Endeavour Energy Norge AS (formerly OER oil AS) and its subsidiary at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Norway.

Accounting principles generally accepted in Norway vary in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Information relating to the nature and effect of such differences is presented in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements.

Endeavour Energy Norge AS (formerly OER oil AS)
Financial Statements for the Years Ended December 31, 2002 and 2003

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

The annual accounts of Endeavour Energy Norge AS (formerly OER oil AS) (“OER” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with Norwegian accounting legislation and Norwegian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (N GAAP). On January 10, 2005, OER oil AS was renamed Endeavour Energy Norge AS.

Consolidation principles

In 2003, OER oil AS acquired 100% of the shares of Aker Energy AS (renamed OER energy AS). See Note 7. OER oil AS has prepared consolidated accounts for the first time in 2003. The consolidated accounts comprise OER oil AS and the newly acquired subsidiary. All intercompany transactions between the companies have been eliminated. During 2003, all assets and related activities in OER energy AS were transferred to OER oil AS. This transaction was approved by the Norwegian Ministry of Finance in December 2003.

Lundin Petroleum is the major shareholder of OER oil AS, owning 76%.

In those licenses which OER oil AS participates in joint ventures within the oil and gas industry, the company’s shares are accounted for in accordance with the proportionate consolidation method.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the accounts in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles does require that the company’s management prepares estimates and assumptions that influence the value of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet, as well as for the revenues and costs for the accounting year. The amounts actually realized may deviate from these estimates.

Foreign currency

Current transactions in foreign currency are converted and recorded in NOK at the actual exchange rate. At the end of the accounting year, receivables and liabilities in foreign currency are converted at the exchange rate at the end of the year.

Classification of balance sheet items

Current assets and current liabilities comprise items that are due for payment within one year after the balance sheet date. Other items are categorized as fixed assets and long term liabilities.

Exploration

The company is capitalizing all exploration costs. Exploration costs are depreciated in accordance with the unit of production method on the basis of the company’s total reserves in those producing fields in which the company has ownership interests.

Endeavour Energy Norge AS (formerly OER oil AS)
Financial Statements for the Years Ended December 31, 2002 and 2003

Production investments

The company is capitalizing all investments in plant, equipment, etc. The investments are depreciated in accordance with the unit of production method on the basis of each respective field’s total reserves.

Depreciation

The company is applying the unit of production method for depreciation of total investments in the petroleum sector. According to this method the annual depreciation is calculated based on the production of petroleum products during the year in relation to the total commercial remaining recoverable reserves. The company is using total remaining proved and probable reserves.

Decommissioning and abandonment

Provisions for decommissioning and abandonment are provided and expensed to the income statement in line with each asset’s economic life so that total provisions at the time of abandonment are sufficient to cover such expenditures.

Provisions for decommissioning and abandonment are calculated in accordance with the unit of production method and recorded as production expenses in the income statement.

Over-/under-lift of petroleum products

In producing fields there will be liabilities and receivables between the joint venture partners as a consequence of the fact that the companies’ shares of production deviate from the companies’ lifted/sold quantities of petroleum products. Such deviations are recognized in the accounts. Liabilities that are caused by overlift positions are booked at cost, whereas receivables that are caused by underlift positions are booked at the lowest of cost and sales value.

Corporate Income Taxes

Corporate income taxes comprise corporate taxes payable and deferred taxes. Deferred taxes are calculated on the basis of temporary differences between accounting and taxable balance sheet values.

The tax effect is shown as a part of the annual taxes in the income statement and deferred tax is shown as long term liabilities in the balance sheet. In the calculation of taxes the company has applied a corporate tax rate of 28%, and a special oil tax of 50% after deduction for uplift on investments.

Cash flow analysis

The indirect cash flow model has been applied. Cash and bank includes all bank deposits and cash at the end of the year, including restricted cash.

Note 17. Subsequent Events

During 2004, OER energy AS was merged with OER oil AS.

Pursuant to the Share Sale and Purchase Agreement, Endeavour paid Lundin NOK (Norwegian kroner) 172,500,000 in cash for all of Lundin’s shares in OER, representing about 76% of the outstanding shares of OER.

On November 10, 2004, Endeavour Norge entered into agreements (each a “Purchase Agreement,” and collectively the “Purchase Agreements”) with the twenty-four minority interest holders of OER, including certain members of OER’s management, to purchase the remaining 23.34% interest in OER. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, Endeavour Norge will purchase 1,299,772 shares in OER for consideration of NOK 6.98

Endeavour Energy Norge AS (formerly OER oil AS)

and 1.68 shares of Endeavour International Corporation common stock per share of OER. The number of shares of Endeavour International Corporation common stock to be issued as consideration under the Purchase Agreements is subject to downward adjustment to reflect any changes in OER’s claimed loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2003 and other estimated tax amounts.

Assuming no adjustments are made to the share consideration to be paid under the Purchase Agreements, the aggregate consideration to be paid for OER would be approximately NOK 181.6 million in cash and 2,183,617 shares of Endeavour International Corporation common stock.

In 2004, the remaining NOK 20 million of the Convertible loan was drawn down.

In 2004, the other interest bearing debt of NOK 80 million was repaid.

The 55,000 options, described in note 12 above were exercised in December 2004

There are no significant differences in equity as of 31 December 2002 between N GAAP and US GAAP.

a) Asset Retirement Obligation – Under US GAAP, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” requires companies to record the fair value of the liability for closure and removal costs associated with the legal obligations upon retirement or removal of any tangible long-lived assets. Under this standard, the initial recognition of the liability occurs in the period in which it is incurred and a reasonable estimate can be made. In subsequent periods, amounts due to the passage of time are recorded as accretion and revisions to the estimate are recorded as an adjustment to the liability. Upon recognition of the liability, the related asset is capitalized as part of the asset cost for the amount of the liability and amortized over the related assets estimated useful life on the unit of production basis for oil and gas operations. Under N GAAP, provisions for decommissioning and abandonment are calculated in accordance with the unit of production method and recorded as production expenses in the income statement with a corresponding recording of the liability provision. For the US GAAP adjustment for December 31, 2003, a liability and corresponding asset of NOK 40.6 million was recognized. Included in the US GAAP adjustment for the year ended December 31, 2003 NOK 3.2 million of accretion expense and NOK 8.3 million of depreciation.

b) Full Cost Method of Accounting for Oil and Gas Operations – Under US GAAP, depreciation for oil and gas operations is calculated based on proved reserves and country by country cost centres. Under N GAAP, depreciation is calculated on proved and probable reserves on a field by field basis. For the year ended December 31, 2003, NOK 14.5 million of additional DD&A was recognized under US GAAP.

c) Purchase of Assets – Under US GAAP, Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (“EITF”) No. 98-11, “Accounting for Acquired Temporary Differences in Certain Purchase

- 15 -


 

Endeavour Energy Norge AS (formerly OER oil AS)
Financial Statements for the Years Ended December 31, 2002 and 2003

Transactions That Are Not Accounted for as Business Combinations,” the assigned value of the asset and the related deferred tax asset or liability should be determined under the simultaneous equations method in determining amount of deferred taxes applicable to the transaction.

Under N GAAP, additional deferred taxes were not provided on the transaction to acquire the interests in the producing fields Brage and Njord from Norsk Hydro and any difference between the financial and tax bases are treated as permanent differences. Under US GAAP, an additional asset of NOK 206.6 million was recorded with an offsetting increase to deferred tax liabilities.

In accordance with EITF No. 98-11, any deferred credit arising from the application of this Issue should not be classified as part of deferred tax liabilities or as an offset to deferred tax assets. Under N GAAP, the deferred credit arising from the tax loss acquired through the acquisition of Aker Energy AS was classified as an offset to deferred tax assets. At December 31, 2003, an additional amount of NOK 16.7 million has been recorded as an increase as deferred tax assets with the offset recorded as other liabilities.

d) Deferred tax effect of US GAAP adjustments at a rate of 78% for all items except for the book and tax difference related to certain licenses. Under US GAAP, income taxes are based on the liability method. Under NGAAP, income taxes are also based on the liability method, with the exception of book and tax differences related to licenses. Certain licenses are non-deductible and under NGAAP no deferred tax liability is recognized.

Comprehensive income under US GAAP is the same as net income under US GAAP for all periods presented.

There are no significant differences in cash from operations, cash used by investments and cash from financing under N GAAP versus net cash provided by operating activities, net cash used in investing activities and net cash provided by financing activities under US GAAP for all periods presented.

Endeavour Energy Norge AS (formerly OER oil AS)
Unaudited Financial Statements
for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004 and 2003

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

The accompanying interim financial statements of Endeavour Energy Norge AS (formerly OER oil AS) (“OER” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Norway (“N GAAP”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by N GAAP for complete financial statements. A reconciliation of the interim financial statements under N GAAP to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) is included in Note 2. On January 10, 2005, OER oil AS was renamed Endeavour Energy Norge AS.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The principal accounting policies used in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below.

These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003.

The consolidated accounts comprise OER oil AS and its 100% owned subsidiary OER energy AS. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

As a consequence of the approval by the Norwegian Ministry of Finance in December 2003, all assets and related activities in OER energy AS were transferred to OER oil AS.

In those licenses which OER oil AS participates in joint ventures within the oil and gas industry, the company’s shares are accounted for in accordance with the proportionate consolidation method.

Preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires that management make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In January 2004, the Company entered into a debt agreement with Handelsbanken for MNOK 65, of which MNOK 53 is currently outstanding, and bears interest at the 6-month Norwegian Inter-Bank Offering Rate (NIBOR) plus 1.4%. The debt is repayable in semi-annual installments through January 2006. In addition, Handelsbanken has provided a guarantee of up to MNOK 16 to the operator of the Brage and Njord fields and the Norwegian Ministry of Petroleum and Energy for the abandonment and decommissioning costs for these fields.

The Handelsbanken agreement contains customary covenants, including but not limited to, limitations on OER’s ability to incur liens, make acquisitions and investments, or sell or transfer assets. Additionally, OER may not permit its book equity to fall below 25%.

The convertible loan of MNOK 30 is from Lundin Petroleum B.V. The loan agreement for a total facility of MNOK 30, was entered into 27 December 2002 and was convertible into 20 million shares of the Company’s shares, contingent upon OER not repaying the loan upon maturity. The loan is interest free, and is due for repayment at the end of 2005. The convertible loan is subordinated to any other bank debt.

given by the bank, Handelsbanken. Receivables, inventory, certain bank accounts and deposits were pledged with the aggregate value of NOK 102 million. The credit line of NOK 20 million with the bank Gjensidige NOR and the accompanied pledge were abolished in January 2004.

Note 6. Subsequent Event

On November 23, 2004, Endeavour International Corporation’s Norwegian subsidiary, Endeavour Energy Norge AS, acquired a majority interest in OER from Lundin Petroleum B.V. (“Lundin”). Pursuant to the Share Sale and Purchase Agreement, Endeavour paid Lundin NOK (Norwegian kroner) 172,500,000 in cash for all of Lundin’s shares in OER, representing about 76% of the outstanding shares of OER.

On November 10, 2004, Endeavour Norge entered into agreements (each a “Purchase Agreement,” and collectively the “Purchase Agreements”) with the twenty-four minority interest holders of OER, including certain members of OER’s management, to purchase the remaining 23.34% interest in OER. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, Endeavour Norge will purchase 1,299,772 shares in OER for consideration of NOK 6.98 and 1.68 shares of Endeavour International Corporation common stock per share of OER. The number of shares of Endeavour International Corporation common stock to be issued as consideration under the Purchase Agreements is subject to downward adjustment to reflect any changes in OER’s claimed loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2003 and other estimated tax amounts.

Assuming no adjustments are made to the share consideration to be paid under the Purchase Agreements, the aggregate consideration to be paid for OER would be approximately NOK 181.6 million in cash and 2,183,617 shares of Endeavour International Corporation common stock.

Note 7. Summary of Significant Differences Between Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in Norway and the United States of America

The financials statements of the company have been prepared in conformity with N GAAP, which differs in certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (US GAAP). The following is a summary of the significant adjustments to net income (loss) for the year when reconciling amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements to the corresponding amounts in accordance with US GAAP.

a) Asset Retirement Obligation – Under US GAAP, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” requires companies to record the fair value of the liability for closure and removal costs associated with the legal obligations upon retirement or removal of any tangible long-lived assets. Under this standard, the initial recognition of the liability occurs in the period

for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2004 and 2003

in which it is incurred and a reasonable estimate can be made. In subsequent periods, amounts due to the passage of time are recorded as accretion and revisions to the estimate are recorded as an adjustment to the liability. Upon recognition of the liability, the related asset is capitalized as part of the asset cost for the amount of the liability and amortized over the related assets estimated useful life on the unit of production basis for oil and gas operations. Under N GAAP, provisions for decommissioning and abandonment are calculated in accordance with the unit of production method and recorded as production expenses in the income statement with a corresponding recording of the liability provision. For the US GAAP adjustment for December 31, 2003, a liability and corresponding asset of NOK 40.6 million was recognized. Included in the US GAAP adjustment for the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003 NOK 2.6 million and NOK 2.2 million, respectively, of accretion expense and NOK 6.4 million and NOK 6.3 million, respectively, of depreciation.

b) Full Cost Method of Accounting for Oil and Gas Operations – Under US GAAP, depreciation for oil and gas operations is calculated based on proved reserves and country by country cost centres. Under N GAAP, depreciation has been calculated on proved and probable reserves on a field by field basis. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004 and 2003, NOK 13.9 million and NOK 12.3 million, respectively, of additional DD&A was recognized under US GAAP.

c) Purchase of Assets – Under US GAAP, Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (“EITF”) No. 98-11, “Accounting for Acquired Temporary Differences in Certain Purchase Transactions That Are Not Accounted for as Business Combinations,” the assigned value of the asset and the related deferred tax asset or liability should be determined under the simultaneous equations method in determining amount of deferred taxes applicable to the transaction.

Under N GAAP, additional deferred taxes were not provided on the transaction to acquire the interests in the producing fields Brage and Njord from Norsk Hydro and any difference between the financial and tax bases are treated as permanent differences. Under US GAAP, an additional asset of NOK 206.6 million was recorded at the time of the acquisition with an offsetting increase to deferred tax liabilities.

In accordance with EITF No. 98-11, any deferred credit arising from the application of this Issue should not be classified as part of deferred tax liabilities or as an offset to deferred tax assets. Under N GAAP, the deferred credit arising from the tax loss acquired through the acquisition of Aker Energy AS was classified as an offset to deferred tax assets. At December 31, 2003, an additional amount of NOK 16.7 million has been recorded as an increase to deferred tax assets with the offset recorded to other liabilities.

d) Deferred tax effect of US GAAP adjustments at a rate of 78% for all items except for the book tax difference related to certain licences. Under US GAAP, income taxes are based on the liability method. Under N GAAP, income taxes are also based on the liability method, with the exception of book and tax differences related to licenses. Certain licenses are non-deductible and under N GAAP no deferred tax liability is recognized.

Comprehensive income under US GAAP is the same as net income under US GAAP for all periods presented.

There are no significant differences in cash from operations, cash used by investments and cash from financing under N GAAP versus net cash provided by operating activities, net cash used in investing activities and net cash provided by financing activities under US GAAP for all periods presented.

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combining
Financial Statements of Endeavour International Corporation

(Amounts in thousands, except per share data)

The accompanying pro forma financial statements are presented in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects adjustments to give affect to the following:

  •   Endeavour International Corporation’s (“Endeavour”) purchase of OER oil AS (“OER”) (subsequently renamed Endeavour Energy Norge AS) for approximately $39 million, including $29 million in cash and 2.2 million shares of Endeavour common stock (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition was completed in two phases. On November 23, 2004, Endeavour acquired a majority interest in OER from Lundin Petroleum B.V. (“Lundin”). Endeavour paid approximately $27 million in cash for all of Lundin’s shares in OER, representing about 76% of the outstanding shares of OER. On January 26, 2005, Endeavour purchased the remaining minority interest in OER for approximately $2 million in cash and 2.2 million shares of Endeavour common stock.
 
  •   The income statement data assume that the Acquisition was consummated on January 1, 2003. The balance sheet data assume that the Acquisition was consummated on September 30, 2004.

OER’s historical financial statements were prepared in accordance with Norwegian generally accepted accounting principles (“N GAAP”), which differ in certain respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) and have been adjusted to US GAAP. Certain reclassifications were made to OER’s historical financial statements to conform them to Endeavour’s presentation. Norwegian Kroner (“NOK”) amounts have been translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable historical rate in effect on the date of the relevant event/period. Our inclusion of this information is not meant to suggest that the Norwegian Kroner amounts actually represent such dollar amounts or that such amounts could have been converted into U.S. dollars at any particular rate, if at all.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combining financial data are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or the financial position which would have occurred had the transactions been consummated at January 1, 2003, nor are they necessarily indicative of future results of operations or financial position. The unaudited pro forma combined financial data should be read in conjunction with the historical consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto of Endeavour and OER.

(A)   To adjust the historical balances of OER under N GAAP to US GAAP. The primary differences between N GAAP and US GAAP for OER are as follows:

  a.   Asset Retirement Obligation – Under US GAAP, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” requires companies to record the fair value of the liability for closure and removal costs associated with the legal obligations upon retirement or removal of any tangible long-lived assets. Under this standard, the initial recognition of the liability occurs in the period in which it is incurred and a reasonable estimate can be made. In subsequent periods, amounts due to the passage of time are recorded as accretion and revisions to the estimate are recorded as an adjustment to the liability. Upon recognition of the liability, the related asset is capitalized as part of the asset cost for the amount of the liability and amortized over the related assets estimated useful life on the unit of production basis for oil and gas operations. Under N GAAP, provisions for decommissioning and abandonment are calculated in accordance with the unit of production method and recorded as production expenses in the income statement with a corresponding recording of the liability provision.
 
  b.   Full Cost Method of Accounting for Oil and Gas Operations – Under US GAAP, depreciation for oil and gas operations is calculated based on proved reserves and country by country cost centres. Under N GAAP, depreciation has been calculated on proved and probable reserves on a field by field basis.
 
  c.   Purchase of Assets – Under US GAAP, Emerging Issues Task Force Issue (“EITF”) No. 98-11, “Accounting for Acquired Temporary Differences in Certain Purchase Transactions That Are Not Accounted for as Business Combinations,” the assigned value of the asset and the related deferred tax asset or liability should be determined under the simultaneous equations method in determining amount of deferred taxes applicable to the transaction. Under N GAAP, additional deferred taxes were not provided on the transaction to acquire the interests in producing fields and any difference between the financial and tax bases are treated as permanent differences. In accordance with EITF No. 98-11, any deferred credit arising from the application of this Issue should not be classified as part of deferred tax liabilities or as an offset to deferred tax assets. Under N GAAP, the deferred credit arising from the tax loss acquired through an acquisition was classified as an offset to deferred tax assets.
 
  d.   Deferred tax effect of US GAAP adjustments. Under US GAAP, income taxes are based on the liability method. Differences between book and tax basis of assets acquired are included as deferred tax liabilities and therefore the tax effect of these differences does not result in a permanent difference as they do in N GAAP. The removal of the effect of the

      permanent difference for US GAAP results in an effective rate on the changes between N GAAP and US GAAP that is not equal to the Norwegian statutory rate of 78%.

(B)   Norwegian Kroner amounts have been translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable historical rate in effect on the date of the relevant event/period. For the balance sheet, the exchange rate was 7.06 kroner. For the nine months ended September 30, 2004, the average exchange rate was 6.88 kroner. For the year ended December 31, 2003, the average exchange rate was 7.08 kroner.

(C)   To record the acquisition of OER for approximately $39 million, including $29 million in cash and 2.2 million shares of our common stock. The preliminary purchase price allocation is determined as follows:

         
Common stock issued
    2,184  
Average stock price
  $ 4.24  
 
     
Fair value of stock issued
  $ 9,260  
Cash paid
    29,052  
Estimated expenses
    858  
 
     
Preliminary purchase price
  $ 39,170  
 
     
 
       
Allocation of purchase price:
       
Current assets
  $ 14,240  
Property, plant and equipment
    31,558  
Goodwill
    27,951  
Current liabilities
    (845 )
Long-term debt
    (11,756 )
Deferred taxes
    (15,299 )
Other long-term liabilities
    (6,679 )

    The average stock price is based on a five day period beginning two days before the announcement of the transaction. The purchase price allocation set forth above and reflected in the pro forma financials is preliminary and subject to change in the fair value of OER’s working capital and other liabilities on the effective date and the actual transaction expenses incurred. Management does not believe the final purchase price allocation will differ materially from the preliminary purchase price allocation.
 
(D)   To eliminate OER’s historical property, deferred tax liability, asset retirement obligation and equity.
 
(E)   To record estimated legal, accounting and other expenses for the Acquisition.
 
(F)   To eliminate OER’s historical depletion and amortization.
 
(G)   To record depletion and amortization after giving affect to the purchase price allocation.
