Summary of Our Business

U.S. Geothermal Inc. (the “Company,” “GTH” 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 Pacific Northwest of the United States. 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. Our principal focus is the development of the Raft River project, a geothermal project encompassing approximately 8.4 square miles of land located at Raft River, Idaho. As more thoroughly discussed in the sections below, the company has entered into a power purchase agreement, at 10 megawatt monthly average, with Idaho Power Company, and is in the process of developing the power plant for the first phase of production.

Our principal corporate and executive offices are located at 1509 Tyrell Lane, Suite B, Boise, Idaho 83076. Our telephone number is 208-424-1027. We maintain a website at www.usgeothermal.com. Information contained on our website is not part of this prospectus.

The Offering

We are registering for resale shares of our common stock held by the selling shareholders listed in this prospectus. The selling shareholders acquired the securities in the following transactions.

On June 5, 2007, we completed a private placement of 9,090,900 shares of common stock at a price of Cdn$2.20 per share, for gross proceeds of Cdn$19,999,980. In connection with the offering, we agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than July 30, 2007 and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause it to become effective and remain effective for two years. In the event the registration statement is not effective by November 5, 2007, the purchasers are entitled to receive as liquidated damages 0.1 common shares for each common share purchased.

Cormark Securities Inc., Dundee Securities Corporation and Toll Cross Securities Inc. have been paid an aggregate cash fee of Cdn$999,999, representing 5% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the offering, and have been issued broker warrants to purchase up to 454,545 common shares of the Company at US $2.08 exercisable for 18 months.

As a result of a private placement completed on April 3, 2006, Dundee Securities Corporation was paid an aggregate cash fee of Cdn$1,522,500, representing 7% of the aggregate gross proceeds from that offering, and was issued in aggregate broker compensation options to purchase up to 1,522,500 common shares of the Company at Cdn$1.00 exercisable for 24 months.

The proceeds of the private placement will be used for the ongoing development and exploration at our Raft River and Neal Hot Springs projects, and for general corporate working capital purposes.

Restated figures. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006, approximately $646,353 in professional fees incurred for plant development were expensed prior to the realization that a viable resource was going to result from development efforts. After this determination, all direct development costs incurred during the fiscal period were capitalized. The effect of this restatement increased construction in progress assets and reduced the operating loss for the first three quarters of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006.

RISK FACTORS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Readers should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below before deciding whether to invest in shares of our common stock.

Our failure to successfully address the risks and uncertainties described below would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or results of operations, and the trading price of our common stock may decline and investors may lose all or part of their investment. We cannot assure you that we will successfully address these risks or other unknown risks that may affect our business.

General Business Risks

We have a limited operating history, have incurred losses to date, and cannot give any assurance that we can ever attain profitability. Our company has been engaged in limited activities in the geothermal business since Geo-Idaho’s incorporation in February 2002. As a result of our brief operating history, our operating results from historical periods are not readily comparable to and may not be indicative of future results. We have not generated revenues from operations to date, and cannot give any assurance that we will be able to generate revenues in the future. For the years ended March 31, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007, we incurred net losses of ($1,490,593), ($676,398), ($1,830,421), ($1,523,385), and ($1,792,584) respectively. At March 31, 2006, and March 31, 2007, we had accumulated deficits of ($5,199,743) and ($6,992,323), respectively. We expect to incur losses for at least the next 6 months. We cannot give you any assurance that we will soon make a profit or that we will ever make a profit.

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 Raft River 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. We require substantial additional financing to fund the cost of continued development of the Raft River project and other operating activities, and to finance the growth of our business, including the construction and commissioning of a power generation facility. 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 a joint venture partner to fund further development work, which would result in reducing our interest in the project.

We may be subject to liquidated damages in the event that a resale registration statement is not declared effective by November 5, 2007. On June 5, 2007, we completed a private placement of 9,090,900 shares of common stock at a price of Cdn$2.20 per share, for gross proceeds to the company of Cdn$19,999,980. Upon completion of the placement, the company had 53,092,612 shares issued and outstanding. In connection with the offering, we agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than July

3


30, 2007 and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause it to become effective and remain effective for two years. In the event the registration statement is not effective by November 5, 2007, the purchasers in the private placement are entitled to receive, as liquidated damages, 0.1 common shares for each common share purchased.

We may not be able to fully develop the geothermal resource within the Unit 1 joint venture boundaries which would increase development costs for Unit 2 and result in delays. Unit 2 is currently anticipated to be located within the Unit 1 joint venture boundaries. Without the agreement and consent of our Unit 1 joint-venture partner, Raft River Holdings, we cannot fully develop the geothermal resource within the Unit 1 joint venture boundaries without incurring increased development costs and delays.

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 Phase I, we have estimated these costs to be around US $39,000,000 to be incurred over an eighteen month period. Future expansion of power production at Raft River 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 the Company having to substantially reduce its interest in the project.

We may not be able to manage our growth 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 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 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 a power plant at Raft River in order to generate and sell electricity. If this financing includes the issuance of material amounts of debt, this would expose GTH 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 would 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.

4


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.

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 Chief Operating Officer, Douglas J. Glaspey, and Kevin Kitz, our Vice President – Project Development. The loss of any of their services could have a material adverse effect upon us. GTH 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 a geothermal resource is such that there cannot be any assurance of success. Exploration costs are not fixed, and the resource cannot be relied upon until substantial development has taken place, which entails high exploration and development costs. The costs of development drilling are subject to numerous variables which could result in substantial cost overruns. Drilling for geothermal resource 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. As protection against operating hazards, we maintain insurance coverage against some, but not all, potential losses. We do not fully insure against all risks associated with our business either because such insurance is not available or because the cost of such coverage is considered prohibitive. The occurrence of an event that is not covered, or not fully covered, by insurance could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The impact of governmental regulation could adversely affect our business. 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. Many laws and regulations require drilling permits and govern the spacing of wells, rates of production, prevention of waste and other matters. 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. In addition, our operations are subject to complex environmental laws and regulations adopted by federal, state and local jurisdictions where we operate. We could incur liability to governments or third parties for any unlawful discharge of pollutants into the air, soil or water, including responsibility for remedial costs. We could potentially discharge such materials into the environment in any of the following ways:

 
from a well or drilling equipment at a drill site;
 
 
 
leakage from gathering systems, pipelines, power plant and storage tanks;
 
 
 
damage to geothermal wells resulting from accidents during normal operations; and
     
 
blowouts, cratering and explosions.

In addition, the submission and approval of environmental impact assessments may be required. Environmental legislation is evolving in a manner which 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.

5


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. In addition, because we acquire interests in properties that have been operated in the past by others, we may be liable for environmental damage caused by such former operators.

Industry competition may impede our growth. 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 Pacific Northwest, in which the Raft River project is 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.

Claims have been made that some geothermal plants cause seismic activity and related property damage.
There are approximately two dozen 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 area of the Raft River and Neal Hot Springs projects or our intended operation of a power plant 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.

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 a power plant. If the actual costs of construction or operations exceed the model costs, the company may not be able to build the contemplated power plant, 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.

Payments under our initial power purchase agreement may be reduced if we are unable to forecast our production adequately. Under the terms of our initial power purchase agreement, if we do not deliver electricity output within 90% to 110% of our forecasted amount, payments for the amount delivered will be reduced, possibly significantly. If the company consistently mis-forecasts its output, its revenues will be reduced, and we may not be able to operate profitably.

There are some risks for which we do not or cannot carry insurance. Because our current operations are limited in scope, GTH carries public liability insurance and directors’ and officers’ liability coverage, but does not currently insure against any other risks. As its operations progress, GTH will acquire additional coverage consistent with its operational needs, but GTH 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.

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 GTH may participate, the directors may have a conflict of interest in negotiating and concluding terms respecting the extent of such participation. If a conflict of interest arises, a director who has such a conflict will abstain from voting for or against the approval of such a participation or such terms. 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

6


position of the company making the assignment. Under the laws of the State of Delaware, the directors of GTH would be required to act honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of GTH.

In determining whether or not GTH would participate in a particular program and what interest GTH would acquire in it, the directors would primarily consider the degree of risk to which GTH would be exposed and its financial position at that time.

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 could be adversely affected by the availability and resale of such a large number of shares in a short period of time.

Our officers and directors hold sufficient shares that acting collectively they may be able to influence the outcome of matters submitted to the shareholders. Our officers and directors own in the aggregate approximately 13% of the company’s securities, on a fully diluted basis. If the officers and directors were to act collectively, assuming they continue to own all of their shares, there is a substantial likelihood that they would be able to influence the election of the directors of the company and the outcome of all corporate actions requiring the approval of the shareholders, such as mergers and acquisitions, in their own interests and to the detriment of the other shareholders.

The possible issuance of substantial amounts of additional shares without shareholder approval may dilute the percentage ownership of our shareholders. There are 53,192,612 shares of our common stock outstanding and 4,671,973 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of outstanding options and warrants as of June 30, 2007. There are 100,000,000 shares of our common stock authorized for issuance. All of our authorized shares in excess of those currently outstanding may be issued without any action or approval by our shareholders and may dilute the percentage ownership of our current shareholders.

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 TSX Venture Exchange and on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board 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. Market makers are not required to maintain a continuous two-sided market and are free to withdraw firm quotations at any time. 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 from a low of Cdn$0.75 to a high of Cdn$1.79 on the TSX Venture Exchange and from a low of US$0.70 to a high of US$1.65 on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board. The trading price of our common stock on the TSX Venture Exchange and on the OTCBB 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.

Our common stock is considered to be a “penny stock,” which may make it more difficult for investors to sell their shares. Our common stock is considered to be a “penny stock.” The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on NASDAQ, provided that current price and volume information with

7


respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system). Prior to a transaction in a penny stock, a broker-dealer is required to:

 
deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market;
 
 
 
provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
 
 
 
explain the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;
     
 
provide monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account; and,
     
 
make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.

These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for our stock and investors may find it more difficult to sell their shares.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This registration statement contains forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, our statements on strategy, operating forecasts, and our working capital requirements and availability. In addition, from time to time, the company or its representatives have made or may make forward-looking statements, orally or in writing. Such forward-looking statements may be included in, but are not limited to, various filings made by the company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), press releases or oral statements made by or with the approval of an authorized executive officer of the company. Forward-looking statements consist of any statement other than a recitation of historical fact and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, or “continue” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Actual results could differ materially from those projected or suggested in any forward-looking statements as a result of a wide variety of factors and conditions, including, but not limited to, the factors and conditions described in the discussions of “Risk Factors and Uncertainties” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” in this registration statement and in other documents the company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The reader is cautioned that the company does not have a policy of updating or revising forward-looking statements and thus the reader should not assume that silence by management of the company over time means that actual events are bearing out as estimated in such forward-looking statements.

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

DIVIDEND POLICY

We anticipate that we will retain any earnings to support operations and to finance the growth and development of our business. Therefore, we do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any further determination to pay cash dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will be dependent on the financial condition, operating results, capital requirements and other factors that our board deems relevant. We have never declared a dividend.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

This prospectus covers the offering of up to 11,977,035 shares of our common stock by selling shareholders. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling shareholders.

The shares issued to the selling shareholders are “restricted” shares under applicable federal and state securities laws and are being registered to give the selling shareholders the opportunity to sell their shares. The registration of such

8


shares does not necessarily mean, however, that any of these shares will be offered or sold by the selling shareholders. The selling shareholders may from time to time offer and sell all or a portion of their shares in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, or otherwise, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at negotiated prices.

The registered shares may be sold directly or through brokers or dealers, or in a distribution by one or more underwriters on a firm commitment or best efforts basis. To the extent required, the names of any agent or broker-dealer and applicable commissions or discounts and any other required information with respect to any particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page 23 of this prospectus. Each of the selling shareholders reserves the sole right to accept or reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of the registered shares to be made directly or through agents. The selling shareholders and any agents or broker-dealers that participate with the selling shareholders in the distribution of their registered shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any commissions received by them and any profit on the resale of the registered shares may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.

We will receive no proceeds from the sale of the registered shares, and we have agreed to bear the expenses of registration of the shares, other than commissions and discounts of agents or broker-dealers and transfer taxes, if any.

Transactions with Selling Shareholders

On June 5, 2007, we completed a private placement of 9,090,900 shares of common stock at a price of Cdn$2.20 per share, for gross proceeds of Cdn$19,999,980. The sale of shares was pursuant to the exemption from registration provided under Rule 506 of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Upon completion of the placement, the company had 53,092,612 shares issued and outstanding.

Cormark Securities Inc., Dundee Securities Corporation and Toll Cross Securities Inc. have been paid an aggregate cash fee of Cdn$999,999, representing 5% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the offering, and have been issued broker warrants to purchase up to 454,545 common shares of the Company at US $2.08 exercisable for 18 months.

In connection with the offering, we agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than July 30, 2007 and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause it to become effective and remain effective for two years. In the event the registration statement is not effective by November 5, 2007, the purchasers are entitled to receive as liquidated damages 0.1 common shares for each common share purchased.

As a result of a private placement completed on April 3, 2006, Dundee Securities Corporation has been paid an aggregate cash fee of Cdn$1,522,500, representing 7% of the aggregate gross proceeds from the offering, and have been issued broker compensation options to purchase up to 1,522,500 common shares of the Company at Cdn$1.00 exercisable for 24 months.

The proceeds of the private placement will be used for the ongoing development and exploration at their Raft River and Neal Hot Springs projects, and for general corporate working capital purposes.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each selling shareholder of our common stock and any of their pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their shares of common stock on the OTCBB or the TSX-V or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A selling shareholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:

 
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker dealer solicits purchasers;
 
 
 
block trades in which the broker dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
 
 
purchases by a broker dealer as principal and resale by the broker dealer for its account;
     
 
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
     
 
privately negotiated transactions;
     
 
settlement of short sales entered into after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part;

12


 
broker dealers may agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
 
 
 
a combination of any such methods of sale;
 
 
 
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; or
     
 
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The selling shareholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather than under this prospectus.

Broker dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other brokers dealers to participate in sales. Broker dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling shareholders (or, if any broker dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with NASD Rule 2440; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with NASD IM-2440.

In connection with the sale of the Common Stock or interests therein, the selling shareholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling shareholders may also sell shares of the Common Stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the Common Stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling shareholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The selling shareholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each selling shareholder has informed the Company that it does not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any underwriter or other person to distribute the Common Stock. In no event shall any broker-dealer receive fees, commissions and markups which, in the aggregate, would not exceed customary fees and commissions.

The selling shareholders may from time to time pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling shareholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling shareholders under this prospectus.

The selling shareholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus and may sell the shares of common stock from time to time under this prospectus after we have filed an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act of 1933 amending the list of selling shareholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling shareholders under this prospectus.

We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the shares, but we will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock by the selling shareholders. We have agreed to

13


indemnify the selling shareholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Because selling shareholders may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. Each selling shareholder has advised us that they have not entered into any written or oral agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriter or broker-dealer regarding the sale of the resale shares. There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the selling shareholders.

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) June 5, 2009, or (ii) such time as all shares covered by the registration statement have been sold publicly. The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the resale shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. We have advised each selling shareholder that it may not use shares registered under this Registration Statement to cover short sales of common stock made prior to the date on which this Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, the selling shareholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of shares of the Common Stock by the selling shareholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling shareholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

Overview

Development of Business

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. We generally refer to this real and personal property interests as the “Vulcan Property”. On December 3, 2002 the letter agreement was replaced by a formal agreement with the previous owner (the “Vulcan Agreement”), which provided for the acquisition, in stages, of 100% of the Vulcan Property in consideration for shares and warrants of Geo-Idaho and cash payments to or on behalf of the previous owner of up to $600,000 (for 100% of the Vulcan Property). Geo-Idaho also agreed that, as a condition to completing the purchase of and as an owner of the Vulcan Property, it would work to advance the Raft River Project by expending at least $200,000 for a work program (which has since been completed). By August 1, 2005, Geo-Idaho had paid the previous owner $617,000 in securities and cash payments, and had completed the work program, to bring its percentage ownership in the Vulcan Property to 100%.

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, GTH acquired Geo-Idaho through the merger of Geo-Idaho with a wholly-owned subsidiary, EverGreen Power Inc., an Idaho corporation formed for that purpose. Geo-Idaho is the surviving corporation and the subsidiary through which GTH 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 GTH, the transaction is treated as a “reverse takeover” for accounting purposes.

We intend to develop the Raft River project in two or more phases. For Phase 1 of development at Raft River, we intend to commercialize the existing production wells and energy field by construction and operation of a 13 megawatt binary cycle geothermal power plant that will provide the energy to be delivered under a power purchase agreement with Idaho Power Company. We have signed an engineering, procurement and construction agreement for the first power plant, and bids have been solicited from several engineering firms to provide engineering, procurement and construction services on all remaining aspects of Phase 1 that are not included in this agreement. Final engineering, equipment procurement and construction is anticipated to take approximately 14 to 16 months from April 25, 2006, and the initial power plant is anticipated to begin production by the end of the third quarter of 2007. The total Phase 1 construction and development costs are expected to be $39 to 41 million for the construction of a geothermal power plant capable of producing 13 megawatts of power. We have completed project financing for Phase 1 of the Raft River project, whereby Raft River I Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of The Goldman Sachs Group Inc., will contribute $34 million in cash and we have contributed $5 million in cash and approximately $1.5 million in production and injection wells and geothermal leases to Raft River Energy I LLC, the Phase 1 project joint venture company.

It is anticipated that Phase 2 will involve the construction and operation of two additional 13 megawatt power plants. Strong regional interest in geothermal power has resulted in several utilities entering into discussions with us to purchase the electrical power output from the two additional plants. Subject to drilling confirmation of the availability of sufficient geothermal resource, the output from all three power plants at Raft River could be as much as 39 megawatts. We anticipate that the Unit 2 power plant may utilize the geothermal resource within the Unit 1 joint venture boundaries. Without the agreement and consent of our Unit 1 joint-venture partner, Raft River Holdings, we cannot fully develop the Unit 1 geothermal resource without incurring increased development costs and delays.

Announced on September 5, 2006, property for a second geothermal project at Neal Hot Springs in eastern Oregon near the Idaho Border was acquired by the Company. The new property consists of 8.5 square miles of geothermal energy and surface rights and was leased from a private, third party. The property has an identified geothermal

15


resource and was recently made part of U.S. Geothermal’s submittal to Idaho Power Company’s Request for Proposals for electricity produced from geothermal sources.

On February 6, 2007, a lease was entered into with Cyprus Gold Exploration Corporation (“Cyprus”), a subsidiary of Phelps Dodge Corporation (NYSE: PD), for an undivided interest in geothermal rights associated with 4,760 acres (7.4 square miles) at Neal Hot Springs. This lease adds 758 acres (1.2 square miles) of new area to the lease announced on September 5, 2006, and overlaps both surface and undivided geothermal rights that were previously acquired at the site.

With the Cyprus lease, U.S. Geothermal has increased its total Neal Hot Springs project holdings to 6,167 acres (9.6 square miles) and increased ownership of the overlapping area to a majority of the geothermal rights in that area. The Cyprus lease has a primary term of 10 years that extends thereafter for as long as commercial production is maintained and includes annual rental and production royalty payment provisions. U.S. Geothermal has ongoing negotiations with additional geothermal rights holders in the area.

Cash Requirements Next Six Months

We believe our cash and liquid investments at March 31, 2007, added to our recent private placement completed June 5, 2007, is adequate to fund our general operating and development activities through March 31, 2009. The Company obtained project capital to construct Raft River power plant through a partnership arrangement. Through the arrangement, equity funds of approximately $34 million were made available for the construction of the project. Total capital expenditures for the phase one project are currently estimated to be between $39 and $41 million. The majority of the funds needed for the project will be provided by existing funds and through the partnership arrangement. If additional funds are needed, we anticipate that the equity may be raised through the issuance of shares, exercise of existing outstanding warrants, and/or through the sale of ownership interest in tax credits and benefits.

Material Acquisitions/Development

The main power island of the power plant’s construction is under the direction of Ormat Nevada Inc., a subsidiary of Ormat Technologies Inc. (NYSE: ORA). Additional associated construction activities including the pipelines, transmission connection and production pump installation are under the direction of the Company with services being provided by contractors. Plant and project construction is proceeding on schedule and budget, and the following status is reported:

16




 
Industrial Builders of Ontario, Oregon was awarded the mechanical construction contract by Ormat, began fabrication work in February and is assembling the plant components,
 
 
 
The electrical construction contract was awarded to Merit Electric Incorporated in May,
 
 
 
All major equipment has been delivered to the site and has been set on it’s foundations,
     
 
Piping and electrical connections are underway,
     
 
The control room and motor control center building has been erected, and
     
 
The cooling tower is approximately 95% complete.

In addition, Raft River Rural Electric Cooperative has finished construction of the 3.2 -mile power transmission line that connects the power plant to the Bonneville Power Administration substation at Bridge, Idaho. Equipment upgrades to the substation including a breaker, relays, and communications systems are underway.

U.S. Geothermal awarded a $1.3 million dollar contract to ITT Industries/Goulds Pumps to provide line-shaft geothermal production pumps for the project. The first two production pumps have been delivered and one is installed.

The well improvement drill program, which began in August 2006, has been competed. Four existing wells were enhanced either by deepening or adding directional legs to improve their production or injection characteristics. Two new wells were drilled to expand the geothermal resource for the planned second 13 megawatt net output power plant at Raft River. Resource utilization studies have determined that production well RRG-3 will be converted to an injection well and that injection well RRG-7 will be converted to a production well. The hot fluid production capacity of each of the wells was determined from the results of historical flow tests using estimates provided by the independent engineering and reservoir consultant firm GeothermEx of Redmond, CA. The Company is currently conducting additional field flow tests to gather more information of the production and injection capacity of the well field and expects to be able to refine the pump settings and number of wells required to be placed in service for the fueling of the 13 megawatt power plant based on this current test work.

On August 9, 2006, we completed project financing for Phase 1 of the Raft River project. In connection with the project financing, we entered into (i) the Membership Admission Agreement, dated August 9, 2006, among Raft River Energy I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, us and Raft River I Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (ii) the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of Raft River Energy I LLC, dated as of August 9, 2006, among Raft River Energy I LLC, Raft River I Holdings, LLC and us, and (iii) the Management Services Agreement, dated as of August 9, 2006, between Raft River Energy I LLC and U.S. Geothermal Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and our wholly-owned subsidiary. Raft River I Holdings, LLC, a subsidiary of The Goldman Sachs Group Inc., will contribute in staged payments a total of $34 million in cash and we will contribute $5 million in cash and approximately $1.5 million in production and injection wells and geothermal leases to Raft River Energy I LLC, the Phase 1 project joint venture company.

Pursuant to the Management Services Agreement, we will provide operating and management services to Raft River Energy I LLC. We expect to receive annual cash distributions up to $1.6 million each year for the first four project years pursuant to the Management Services Agreement and the Amended and Restated Operating Agreement. The cash distributions made to us will come from four sources: income-related cash distributions from our investment in Raft River Energy I LLC, royalty income from our energy leases to Raft River Energy I LLC, a management fee for providing operating and maintenance services, and lease income from our cooling water leases to Raft River Energy I LLC. After the first four years, we will receive a nominal percentage of the distributable Raft River Energy I LLC cash flow until specified rates of return are achieved by our partner, at which time we will receive a little more than half of the distributable cash flow. If we develop the economic equivalent of 30 megawatts of power sales during the initial 20-year term of the power purchase agreement then, at the end of year 20, our share of the distributable cash flow increases to a significant majority of cash flow for the remainder of the Phase I project life.

On May 25, 2006, GTH signed a drilling contract with Union Drilling for the re-work of four of the wells previously drilled for Phase I, and for the drilling of two additional wells to be included in Phases I and II of the Raft River project. The total cost of Phase I and II drilling completed by Union Drilling was approximately $16,600,000 and has been completed, with $5 million attributed to the Phase I project and $11.6 million attributed to the development of production and injection well capacity for a proposed second 13 megawatt power plant unit under consideration for development in Phase II. The results of current well test work are expected to determine the amount of potential well production actually needed for the Phase I power plant.

On February 22, 2006, we received and signed a letter of intent from Eugene Water and Electric Board, of Eugene, Oregon, for Eugene Water and Electric Board’s purchase of the full 13 megawatt electrical output from the second planned power plant of Phase 2 (Unit 2), and we are currently negotiating a draft power purchase agreement with Eugene Water and Electric Board and expect to finalize it by July 2007. Upon execution of the Eugene Water and Electric Board power purchase agreement, and if Unit 1 is successful in the Idaho Power Company Request for Proposal, then the total output from Units 1 and 2 of the Raft River power plants will be 26 megawatts from two plants, instead of the originally planned 30 megawatts from three plants, resulting in substantial capital and operating cost savings through improved economies of scale.

We will seek additional power purchase agreements for future phases, which may involve drilling new wells and determining the production capacity of those wells for additional plant construction. At this time it is not possible to estimate if or when future wells will be drilled. Future phases may involve additional power purchase agreements with Idaho Power Company or other utilities in the service area and may or may not include terms similar to the Phase 1 power purchase agreement.

Employees

At May 31, 2007, the Company had 16 full-time employees (9 – administrative and project development, 7 – field and plant operations). During the last fiscal period, the CEO and CFO positions were increased from part-time to full time. Two additional administrative positions were needed for accounting, financial reporting and systems documentation. We have added 7 field and plant operating employees as part of the on-going operating requirements of the first power plant. The Company also continuously considers acquisition opportunities; 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

Upon reaching commercial production, the principal product will be based upon electrical power produced from the utilization of geothermal resources. The primary product will be the direct sale of power generated by our interests in our geothermal power plants. Some revenues will be earned through consulting and management fees obtained for our services provided to other interests. All power plants currently being considered and currently under construction are for sites in the Pacific Northwest of the United States of America.

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials

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 form 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:

 
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 is.

18


 

 

 

 
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.
 
 
 
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.
 
 
 
Depth – the cost of development increases with depth, as do resource temperatures. Closeness of the reservoir to the surface is therefore a key factor in the economic valuation of a geothermal resource.

 

The final product of electrical power will be directly produced through the utilization of geothermal resources; however, these resources are not a direct component of the final product. Various forms of testing have been conducted at both the Raft River, Idaho and the Neal Hot Springs, Oregon sites. All testing performed to date indicates that the resources at both sites are viable for the production of geothermal power. 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.

The Company’s permitting activities are continuing as the project develops. All geothermal wells are permitted by the Idaho Department of Water Resources under the Idaho Geothermal Resources Act. A Conditional Use Permit for the first two power plants was issued by the Cassia County Planning and Zoning Commission on April 21, 2005. The Idaho Department of Environmental Quality issued the Air Quality Permit to Construct on May 26, 2006. The Department of Army Corps of Engineers and the Idaho Department of Water Resources, after the submittal of a joint application by the Company, have determined that the Raft River project does not need to obtain a Section 404 Clean Water Act permit for the project as it is currently designed. Various other county, state and federal permits will be required for the project, including a Cassia County Building Permit.

An ALTA land title survey that covers all lands owned or leased by RREI was completed, and Land America Commercial Services issued an ALTA Extended title insurance policy for the project on December 6, 2006.

A Wastewater Reuse Permit was issued by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality on February 23, 2007. The Reuse permit will allow the land application of the non-contact cooling water from Unit 1 power plant cooling towers.

The Transmission Business Line has issued a categorical exclusion for modification of the existing substation from the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act. This exclusion fulfills federal environmental permitting requirements for the substation work.

Seasonality of Business

Since we are in a developmental stage, there has been no operating trend information generated to date. When the plant is operational, seasonal changes are not expected to have a significant impact on elements that will drive operational revenues or related costs. During plant development, some construction activities could be impacted by inclement weather that can occur during the winter months.

Industry Practices/Needs for Working Capital

During the development stage of operations, high levels of working capital are committed, either directly or indirectly to the construction efforts. After normal production operations have been established, the needs of working capital are expected to be low. This assumption is primarily based upon the projected revenues and

19


relatively low levels of expected operational expenses. The Company is expecting to be highly involved in development activities for the next 5 to 10 years.

Dependence on Single Customer

Ultimately, the market for electrical power is vast; however, the number of entities that can physically, logistically and economically acquire the commodity in large quantities in our area of operations is limited. Currently, the Company has a power purchase agreement with one customer (Idaho Power Company). Negotiations are in process to sell to another customer and expand sales to Idaho Power Company. During full scale operations, it is expected that the Company 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, and 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 a niche sub-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 are currently no geothermal facilities. There exist 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:

 
mumber of market participants buying and selling;
 
 
 
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;
     
 
extension of the production tax credits past December 31, 2008;
     
 
relative ease or difficulty of developing and constructing new facilities; and
     
 
credit worthiness and risk associated with buyers.

Environmental Compliance

As the Company’s design and permitting activities have progressed, it has further refined and clarified the environmental issues for which it will have to demonstrate compliance in the construction and operation of a geothermal facility at Raft River. The relevant legislation includes: Clean Air Act, Endangered Species Act, Clean Water Act, Rivers and Harbors Act, National Historic Preservation Act, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System, Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, Idaho Solid Waste Facilities Act and the IDAPA Drilling for Geothermal Resource Rules.

In preparation for project financing, a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment was completed by Kleinfelder on October 21, 2005. The Phase I assessment identified two underground storage tanks, which have since been removed.

We believe that a geothermal facility can be designed, constructed and placed into operation at Raft River that will meet environmental compliance requirements. At this time, the company does not believe that the cost of compliance at the federal, state and local levels will be significant.

During the Department of Energy’s development of the Raft River project in the early 1980’s, a multi-year survey of land, plant, animal, archeological, weather, and human health was undertaken. The Department of Energy published an extensive report in 1982. We contacted the Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service regarding any plants or animals in the region that are listed as threatened or endangered species, and received a reply stating that there are no issues identified for the project that require consultation under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended.

Financial Information about Geographic Areas

As described in detail in the Property section, the Company’s Phase I power plant scheduled to be placed into service in October 2007 is located in the Raft River Area in the south eastern part of the State of Idaho. Similar plants are in the planning stages at the same location. Also, land acquisitions and rights have been obtained to explore the development and construction of power plants in the south eastern part of the State of Oregon.

Governmental Approvals and Regulation

GTH is subject to both 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, as well as the Public Utility Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (“PURPA”) and the Energy Policy Act of 1992. Because GTH is defined as an independent power producer under the rules and regulations of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”), the relevant aspects of federal legislation are that its electrical generating facilities qualify under the policy set forth under PURPA which encourages alternative energy sources such as geothermal, wind, biomass, solar and cogeneration.

21


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 GTH. The IPUC, in accordance with Federal PURPA legislation has the authority to set the 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 qualifying facilities.

Currently, the IPUC defines such a facility as having an average output capacity of 10 megawatt monthly average and a contract term of up to 20 years. All PURPA contracts in Idaho are subject to the approval of the IPUC. GTH is not required to market any of the electricity that it may generate at Raft River to Idaho utilities; it can transmit and sell its electricity in another state. Nonetheless, GTH initially signed three 10 megawatt power purchase agreements (“PPA”) with the Idaho Power Company (“Idaho Power”).

On May 8, 2006, GTH submitted proposals to Idaho Power in response to their “Request for Proposal for Geothermal Power”. The Company expects that under a new PPA with Idaho Power, which would replace the current PPA, the Unit 1 power plant will be allowed to sell its full output capacity of up to 13 megawatt annual average, instead of being capped at 10 average megawatts as mandated under the current PPA. This 30% increase in plant output would be achieved without major additional capital investment and is expected to decrease the operating cost per kilowatt-hour.

With carbon regulation widely anticipated to increase the cost of power sourced from coal, and limited opportunities to purchase baseload geothermal power, the company has found that utilities across the Western United States have been eager to discuss power purchases from its Raft River geothermal resource. As a result of the increased interest, U.S. Geothermal elected to withdraw its Unit 2 and Unit 3 Idaho Power PPAs without submitting them to the IPUC for approval in order to pursue larger capacity PPAs with other utilities. With the concurrence of Idaho Power, the Unit 2 and Unit 3 10 megawatt contracts have been voided without further obligation on either party.

Eugene Water and Electric Board (“EWEB”), from Eugene, Oregon and U.S. Geothermal have signed a letter of intent for EWEB to purchase the full 13 megawatt electrical output of Raft River Unit 2. The parties have exchanged a draft PPA and intend to complete negotiations by July 2007. Upon execution of the EWEB PPA, and if Unit 1 is successfully negotiated with Idaho Power Request for Proposal, then the total output from the Unit 1 and Unit 2 Raft River power plants will be 26 megawatts from two plants, instead of the originally planned 30 megawatts from three plants, resulting in substantial capital and operating cost savings through improved economy of scale. The point of sale for the PPA will be at the Bridge Substation, with EWEB negotiating a swap with the Bonneville Power Administration to take delivery in Oregon.

In addition, the strong regional interest in geothermal power has resulted in several utilities from California to Washington entering into discussions with U.S. Geothermal to purchase the electrical power output of Unit 3. Subject to drilling confirmation of sufficient geothermal resource, the power plant output from three units at Raft River would be 39 megawatts, instead of the maximum 30 megawatts under the previous Idaho Power PPA provisions.

The Company will require the approval of various federal, state and local authorities for construction of future geothermal facilities at Raft River. These authorities include the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Environmental Protection Agency, Idaho Department of Environmental Quality, Idaho Department of Water Resources, Idaho Bureau of Hazardous Materials, Idaho State Historical Society, Cassia County and the Southern Idaho Regional Solid Waste District. We have retained Kleinfelder Inc. of Boise, Idaho, an independent environmental and regulatory consultant, to advise GTH as to the siting and design for purpose of governmental approvals. Additionally, David Evans & Associates of Boise, Idaho is providing consulting and engineering services for transmission and interconnection issues and the preparation of the application for a conditional use permit. Centra Consulting, Inc. of Boise, Idaho has been retained to assist with State of Idaho air quality and cooling water reuse permitting.

22


Environmental Credits

As a “green” power producer, environmental-related credits, such as renewable energy credits or carbon credits, may become available for sale to power companies (to allow them to meet their “green” power requirements) or to businesses which produce carbon based pollution. If available, these credits will belong exclusively to us, and may provide an additional source of revenue.

On July 29, 2006, GTH signed a $4.6 million renewable energy credits purchase and sales agreement with Holy Cross Energy, a Colorado cooperative electric association. Holy Cross Energy will purchase the renewable energy credits associated with Phase 1 power production from 2008 to 2017. We retain the renewable energy credits associated with power production from Phase 1 after 2017. We expect to receive a majority of the annual revenue from the ten-year renewable energy credits sales arrangement with Holy Cross Energy.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The Company has significant interests in two locations in the Pacific Northwest. The first location is the Raft River area located in Southeastern Idaho. The second location is the Neal Hot Springs area located in Eastern Oregon, near the Idaho/Oregon boarder.

Raft River - (Idaho)

Phase I at Raft River is in the development stage. The resource has been verified by a certified consultant, contracts signed for sale and transmission of the electricity, and construction of the power plant, pipelines and transmission lines are underway. Commercial operations of the facility should commence during the 4th quarter of 2007.

Although geologic and geophysical studies of the reservoir indicate sufficient geothermal resource for additional phases at Raft River, drilling confirmation will be required before additional work on Phase II can be initiated.

The Raft River project, where the company’s geothermal operations are located, is in south-central 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 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.

23


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 purchases that total 1743.93 acres: Vulcan’s interest in the Raft River project; the Elena interest; the Dewsnup interest; and the Wilcock interest. The Vulcan interest 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, was acquired by us as part of our purchase of the Vulcan interest, is physically located on the Dewsnup parcel and is covered by the Crank geothermal lease. The Elena interest is comprised of surface and geothermal rights to approximately 100 acres of property, excluding the oil and gas rights to the property. The Elena interest is contiguous to other interests owned or leased by us. The Dewsnup interest is comprised of the surface rights to approximately 123.93 acres of property, excluding the oil and gas rights to the property, but including all water and water rights.

The Dewsnup interest is comprised of surface and water rights, and is contiguous to other properties owned or leased by us. The geothermal rights to these acres are included in the Crank Lease below.

The Wilcock interest is comprised of the surface, water, and oil and gas rights to approximately 940 acres of property, including irrigation water rights for 1,544 acre-feet of water. The Wilcock interest is contiguous to other properties owned or leased by us. The geothermal rights to these acres are included in the Jensen Investments Leases below.

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.

24


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.

25


Raft River Phase I

As a result of the project financing for Phase I of the Raft River project, the Company has contributed $5 million in cash and approximately $1.5 million in property to Raft River Energy I LLC, the Phase I project joint venture company. Raft River Holdings, an affiliate of Goldman Sachs Group, will contribute $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 Phase 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:

 
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.
 
 
 
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.
 
 
 
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:

 
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.
 
 
 
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.
 
 
 
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 GTH provided evidence to the lessor that the well (RRGE-2) located on lessor’s property is not owned by the lessor (but instead is 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. Advance production royalties (on a June to June basis) are payable under the Crank lease as follows:

Payments for years 2002 through 2006 have been recorded as lease expense. When commercial production is attained, these lease payments can be deducted from future production royalties. For later years, during commercial production, there is a minimum annual production royalty of $18,000. If the initial commercial production from the well is delayed past the primary lease term, we will seek an amendment to extend the primary term to the initial commercial plant production date. 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.

We lease general office space for our executive office in Boise at an annual cost of $31,051. The underlying lease is a year-to-year lease that expires on January 31, 2008.

With the construction of the power plant included in phase one of the Raft River project, management has increased the general liability and umbrella liability insurance coverage, as deemed necessary. Additional builders risk insurance will be obtained prior to construction of the power plant.

Neal Hot Springs – (Oregon)

Announced on September 5, 2006, property for a second geothermal project at Neal Hot Springs in eastern Oregon near the Idaho Border was acquired by the Company. The new property consists of 8.5 square miles of geothermal energy and surface rights and was leased from a private, third party. The property has an identified geothermal resource and was recently made part of U.S. Geothermal’s submittal to Idaho Power Company’s Request for Proposals for electricity produced from geothermal sources.

On February 6, 2007, a lease was entered into with Cyprus Gold Exploration Corporation (“Cyprus”), a subsidiary of Phelps Dodge Corporation (NYSE: PD), for and undivided interest in geothermal rights associated with 4,760 acres (7.4 square miles) at Neal Hot Springs. This lease adds 758 acres (1.2 square miles) of new area to the lease

28


announced on September 5, 2006, and overlaps both surface and undivided geothermal rights that were previously acquired at the site.

With the Cyprus lease, U.S. Geothermal has increased its total Neal Hot Springs project holdings to 6,167 acres (9.6 square miles) and increased ownership of the overlapping area to a majority of the geothermal rights in that area. The Cyprus lease has a primary term of 10 years that extends thereafter for as long as commercial production is maintained and includes annual rental and production royalty payment provisions. U.S. Geothermal has ongoing negotiations with additional geothermal rights holders in the area.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under “Risk Factors and Uncertainties” and elsewhere in this prospectus.

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes. The discussion and analysis of the 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. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of any contingent liabilities at the financial statement date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis the company reviews its estimates and assumptions. The estimates were based on historical experience and other assumptions that the company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions, but the company does not believe such differences will materially affect our financial position or results of operations. Critical accounting policies, the policies the company believes are most important to the presentation of its financial statements and require the most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, are outlined below in “Critical Accounting Policies,” and have not changed significantly.

Overview

U.S. Geothermal Inc. is a Delaware corporation. The Company’s shares of common stock trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol “GTH” and on the Bulletin Board under the symbol “UGTH”. On December 19, 2003, the Company acquired all of the outstanding securities of U.S. Geothermal Inc., an Idaho corporation (“Geo-Idaho”) incorporated in February 2002, through a transaction merging Geo-Idaho into Evergreen Power Inc., a wholly-owned Idaho subsidiary formed for purposes of the merger transaction. Following the merger, the Company changed its name from U.S. Cobalt Inc. to U.S. Geothermal Inc. Pursuant to the merger, Geo-Idaho became the surviving subsidiary of the Company, and Evergreen Power, Inc. ceased to exist. GTH is still a development stage company and has produced no revenues to date.

During the three months ended March 31, 2007, GTH was focused on (1) supporting construction of Phase I of the Raft River, Idaho geothermal project (“Raft River”), (2) the completion of drilling of production and injection wells for Phase I, and (3) the evaluation of potential new geothermal project acquisitions.

The plant’s construction is under the direction of Ormat Nevada Inc., a subsidiary of Ormat Technologies Inc. Plant construction is proceeding on schedule and budget, and the following status is reported:

 
Industrial Builders of Ontario, Oregon was awarded the mechanical construction contract by Ormat, began fabrication work in February and is assembling the plant components,
 
 
 
The electrical construction contract was awarded to Merit Electric Incorporated in May,
 
 
 
All major equipment has been delivered to the site and has been set on it’s foundations,
     
 
Piping and electrical connections are underway,
     
 
The control room and motor control center building has been erected, and
     
 
The cooling tower is approximately 95% complete.

 

30


In addition, Raft River Rural Electric Cooperative has finished construction of the 3.2 -mile power transmission line that connects the power plant to the Bonneville Power Administration substation at Bridge, Idaho. Equipment upgrades to the substation including a breaker, relays, and communications systems are underway.

On April 26, 2006, GTH issued a Notice to Proceed to Ormat under the Ormat EPC agreement as amended April 25, 2006. An initial payment of $2,020,000 allows Ormat to proceed with ordering of equipment with significant manufacturing lead times. Under the amendment, Ormat commits to a guaranteed final completion date of November 25, 2007 on the Phase I facility.

On May 8, 2006, Idaho Power confirmed that GTH would be allowed to bid the Raft River Unit 1 project into the recently issued Idaho Power geothermal “Request for Proposal for Geothermal Power”. If Idaho Power selects GTH as a successful bidder, the Company expects that under a new PPA with Idaho Power which could replace the current PPA, the Unit 1 power plant will be allowed to sell its full output capacity of up to 13 megawatt annual average, instead of being capped at 10 average megawatt per month as mandated under the current PPA. This 30% increase in plant output would be achieved with no additional capital investment and is expected to decrease the operating cost per kilowatt-hour.

With carbon regulation widely anticipated to increase the cost of power sourced from coal, and limited opportunities to purchase baseload geothermal power, the company has found that utilities across the Western United States have been eager to discuss power purchases from the Raft River geothermal resource. As a result of the increased interest, U.S. Geothermal elected to withdraw its Unit 2 and Unit 3 Idaho Power PPAs without submitting them to the IPUC for approval in order to pursue larger capacity PPAs with other utilities. With the concurrence of Idaho Power, the Unit 2 and Unit 3 10 megawatt contracts have been voided without further obligation on either party.

Eugene Water and Electric Board (“EWEB”), from Eugene, Oregon and U.S. Geothermal have signed a letter of intent for EWEB to purchase the full 13 megawatt electrical output of Unit 2. The parties have exchanged a draft PPA and intend to complete it by October 2007. Upon execution of the EWEB PPA, and if Unit 1 is successful in the Idaho Power Request for Proposal, then the total output from the Unit 1 and Unit 2 Raft River power plants will be 26 megawatts from two plants, instead of the originally planned 30 megawatts from three plants, resulting in substantial capital and operating cost savings through improved economy of scale.

In addition, the strong regional interest in geothermal power has resulted in several utilities from California to Washington entering into discussions with U.S. Geothermal to purchase the electrical power output of Unit 3. Subject to drilling confirmation of sufficient geothermal resource, the power plant output from three units at Raft River would be 39 megawatts, instead of the maximum 30 megawatts under the previous Idaho Power PPA provisions.

On May 16, 2006, a $225,000 contract was signed with Raft River Rural Electrical Co-op to build the production well power distribution lines for delivery of electricity from the power plant to the well heads. At fiscal year end, the distribution lines were approximately 90% complete.

On May 22, 2006, a $2.6 million contract was signed with Industrial Builders of Ontario, Oregon to construct the geothermal pipeline gathering and distribution system which will connect the production and injection wells with the power plant. At fiscal year end, this component was approximately 90% complete.

On May 24, 2006, GTH signed a geothermal lease agreement with JR Land and Livestock Inc. for the lease of approximately 5,409 acres of surface, mineral and geothermal rights in Malheur County, Oregon. The lease term is for ten years with lease payments of $15,000 at signing, $20,000 in first year, $25,000 in second year, and $30,000 for each subsequent year. A geothermal program was completed in early 2007, and plans are in progress for a drilling program.

On August 3, 2006, the Company announced the signing of $4.6 million renewable energy credit (REC) purchase and sale agreement encompassing the first 10 years of Phase I of the Raft River project with Holy Cross Energy.

As of July 2006, the Company completed the acquisitions of two new properties with ground water rights that will provide cooling water to the Phase One and Phase Two power plants and surface access for pipelines and project facilities. The two land parcels total 1,083 acres and have irrigation water rights for 1,904 acre-feet of water. A third purchase of water rights only was also completed for an additional 544 acre-feet of ground water.

On August 10, 2006, the $34 million project finance was announced for Phase I of the Raft River development. The project finance structure is channeled through a qualified special purpose entity, Raft River Energy I, LLC (RREI). Raft River Holdings is an affiliate of The Goldman Sachs Group, and is the Company’s investment partner in RREI. The Company has made a $5 million dollar cash contribution and is transferring to RREI the existing seven production and injection wells, and certain geothermal rights and leases covering the 1,800 acres from the 5,238 total acres of geothermal rights currently held. Raft River Holdings will make capital contributions totaling $34 million in accordance with the construction payments schedule. The partnership does not restrict further development of the Company’s geothermal rights and allows for the development of the planned Phase Two power plants.

Announced on September 5, 2006, property for a second geothermal project at Neal Hot Springs in eastern Oregon near the Idaho Border was acquired by the Company. The new property consists of 8.5 square miles of geothermal energy and surface rights and was leased from a private, third party. The property has an identified geothermal resource and was recently made part of U.S. Geothermal’s submittal to Idaho Power Company’s Request For Proposals for electricity produced from geothermal sources.

On February 6, 2007, a lease was entered into with Cyprus Gold Exploration Corporation (“Cyprus”), a subsidiary of Phelps Dodge Corporation (NYSE: PD), for and undivided interest in geothermal rights associated with 4,760 acres (7.4 square miles) at Neal Hot Springs. This lease adds 758 acres (1.2 square miles) of new area to the lease announced on September 5, 2006, and overlaps both surface and undivided geothermal rights that were previously acquired at the site.

With the Cyprus lease, U.S. Geothermal has increased its total Neal Hot Springs project holdings to 6,167 acres (9.6 square miles) and increased ownership of the overlapping area to a majority of the geothermal rights in that area. The Cyprus lease has a primary term of 10 years that extends thereafter for as long as commercial production is maintained and includes annual rental and production royalty payment provisions. U.S. Geothermal has ongoing negotiations with additional geothermal rights holders in the area.

U.S. Geothermal has awarded a $1.3 million dollar contract to ITT Industries/Goulds Pumps to provide line-shaft geothermal production pumps for the project. The first two production pumps have been delivered and one is installed.

The well improvement drill program, which began in August 2006, has been completed. Four existing wells were enhanced either by deepening or adding directional legs to improve their production or injection characteristics. Two new wells were drilled to expand the geothermal resource for the planned second 13 megawatt net output power plant at Raft River. Resource utilization studies have determined that production well RRG-3 will be converted to an injection well and that injection well RRG-7 will be converted to a production well.

On December 28, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Disco Associates, Inc. for well-head construction for the initial base amount of $478,475. At fiscal year end, this project was approximately 13% complete.

On March 21, 2007, the Company was named successful bidder in Idaho Power Company’s request for geothermal electricity. Negotiations began on the terms of a purchase power agreement for an annual average of 45.5 megawatts from the Raft River and Neal Hot Springs projects.

The Company entered into an agreement with a syndicate of Canadian investment dealers to underwrite a private placement of 6,818,182 shares of common shares at a cost of $2.20 Cdn per share to raise gross proceeds of approximately $15 million in Canadian dollars ($13.5 million US Dollars). The Underwriters had the option to purchase up to an additional 2,272,727 common shares at the issue price under the offering that could gross up to

32


approximately $20 million in Canadian dollars ($18.0 million US Dollars). The proceeds will be used to fund current and future plant development. The offering closed June 5, 2007 and is subject to certain conditions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We believe our cash and liquid investments at March 31, 2007, added to our recent private placement completed June 5, 2007, is adequate to fund our general operating and development activities through March 31, 2009. The Company obtained project capital to construct Raft River power plant through a partnership arrangement. Through the arrangement, equity funds of approximately $34 million were made available for the construction of the project. Total capital expenditures for the phase one project are currently estimated to be between $39 and $41 million. The majority of the funds needed for the project will be provided by existing funds and through the partnership arrangement. If additional funds are needed, we anticipate that the equity may be raised through the issuance of shares, exercise of existing outstanding warrants, and/or through the sale of ownership interest in tax credits and benefits

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.

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.

The Company does not consider such items to be cash equivalents if there is a significant restriction placed upon the use of those assets. At fiscal year end, the Company held deposits that were restricted according to a contractual arrangement with a major vendor. Accordingly, these deposits were classified as restricted cash, rather than cash equivalents.

Going Concern

Based on our projected spending over the next 12 months, our current operating funds and approximately $18 million that was raised from the private placement completed June 5, 2007, our auditors have determined that the going concern qualification from our financial statements is not needed. Management believes that sufficient funding will be available to meet our business objectives, including anticipated cash needs for working capital, and

33


financing for construction of the Phase 1 power plant. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, we have incurred an accumulated deficit of $7,025,115 for the period from February 26, 2002 (inception) to March 31, 2007, and have no revenue from operations. In the ordinary course of constructing a power plant facility of this size and complexity, cost overruns and contract delays can significantly affect the economics of the project. Failure to achieve commercial operations of the power plant prior to December 31, 2007 would jeopardize the production tax credit, and could materially affect the ability of U.S. Geothermal to operate as a going concern.

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 mineral rights. Since the costs of land and the rights surrounding the access geothermal and surface water reservoirs are relatively small, these items have been included, but have not been reported separately in our financial statements. The Company’s first power plant is scheduled to be operational in October 2007; however, it was still under construction at fiscal year end. The costs of this power plant are being accumulated in construction in process accounts until the plant becomes operational. Once the plant is operational, these costs will be charged to operations in a systematic manner based upon the total estimated gallons of water the plant is expected to produce over its useful life. 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.

The costs of machinery, vehicles and other equipment, currently in operation, are being depreciated in a systematic manner. For these assets, depreciation is calculated based upon the straight-line method at a rate of 30%, which allocates the costs evenly over the asset’s estimated service life. Depreciation costs calculated for assets that are not directly involved in the production of geothermal properties are charged to operations.

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 or 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.

Stock-Based Compensation

At the beginning of the fiscal year, the Company adopted a standard that states that if certain conditions are present surrounding the issuance of equity instruments as employee 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 both before and after the beginning of the fiscal year. Authors of the standard have reasoned that when a condition is present that creates a

34


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 records the value of these options as operating expense during the period in which they are awarded. Stock options awarded to Company employees are also valued on the date they are awarded. However, the value of these options are expensed or capitalized 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.

Operating Results

March 31, 2007 compared to March 31, 2006
For the year ended March 31, 2007, we incurred a loss of $1,793,000 or $0.04 per share. The compares to a loss for the year ended March 31, 2006 of $1,491,000 or $0.09 per share. The main reason for this increased loss is that non-cash stock-based compensation granted to directors, officers and employees increased by $798,000 in a year to year comparison. Stock options granted during the year were 2,168,000 options in 2007 as compared to 50,000 options in 2006.

In addition, professional fees totaled $663,000 in 2007 as compared to $386,000 in 2006. Legal and accounting fees increased $277,000 in 2007 due to legal fees associated with an SB-2 registration statement and the negotiation of the Raft River Energy operating agreement, and an increase in accounting fees associated with amendments to prior year federal tax returns. Losses incurred at Raft River Energy of $102,000 were recorded in 2007.

Increases in interest income of $670,000 and foreign currency gain of $262,000 helped to offset partially the increased costs. The foreign currency resulted from timing on transferring funds from the April 2006 private placement from our Canadian accounts into the U.S. The interest income resulted from money market fund interest on the balance of the Company’s cash balances.

March 31, 2006 compared to March 31, 2005
For the year ended March 31, 2006, we incurred a loss of $1,491,000 or $0.09 per share. The compares to a loss for the year ended March 31, 2005 of $1,830,000 or $0.12 per share. The main reason for this decreased loss is that exploration expenditures decreased by $439,000 in a year to year comparison. U.S. Geothermal development costs were capitalized in 2006 as a geothermal reservoir had been identified, and determined to be economic.

In addition, consulting fees decreased by $461,000 in 2006, which was offset partially by an increase in salaries and wages of $355,000. Individuals previously paid as consultants were hired as employees effective April 1, 2006.

Travel and promotion expenses increased $ 271,000 as the Company increased marketing and promotional efforts to attract and retain investors. Foreign currency gain increased by $245,000 as funds were transferred from our Canadian accounts into the U.S.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2007, the Company does not have any off balance sheet arrangements.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Risk on Investments

At March 31, 2007, the Company held investments of $12,081,369 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 term.

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 held deposits that amounted to less than $30,000 in U.S. dollar equivalents. 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 signing a power purchase contract for a 20 year period for the first power plant scheduled to go into production. This type of arrangement will be the model for power purchase contracts planned for future power plants.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Compensation and Benefits Committee is appointed annually by the Board of Directors to discharge the Board’s responsibilities relating to compensation and benefits of the executive officers of the Company. The goals of the committee are to attract, retain and motivate our executive officers by providing appropriate levels of compensation and benefits while taking into consideration, among such other factors as it may deem relevant, the Company’s performance, shareholder returns, the value of similar incentive awards to executive officers at comparable companies and the awards given to the executive officers in past years. The main categories of compensation available to the committee are base salary, discretionary annual performance bonuses, stock option grants, stock awards, and insurance reimbursements.

We compete with a variety of companies for our executive-level employees. The Compensation and Benefits Committee uses base salary to compensate the executive officers for services rendered as well as for motivation and retention purposes. Base salaries are intended to be competitive for companies of similar size and purpose, also taking into consideration individual factors such as experience, tenure, institutional knowledge and qualifications. Base salaries are reviewed annually to determine whether they are consistent with our overall compensation objectives. In considering increases in base salary, the Compensation and Benefits Committee reviews individual and corporate performance, market and industry conditions, and our overall financial health.

The Compensation and Benefits Committee may grant annual performance bonuses as a reward for achievement of individual and corporate short-term goals. Any grant of an annual performance bonus is discretionary and the amount is determined after recommendation from the chief executive officer. Bonus amounts should be dependent upon our financial and operational performance as well as the performance of the individual executive officer.

Generally, the Compensation and Benefits Committee grant stock options to all employees, including executive officers, annually after completion of our annual financial reports. Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the market value of our common stock on the date of the grant, and with a term of five years. The timing of the stock option grant is not coordinated with the release of material non-public information and is typically in the first or second fiscal quarter. The options vest 25% on date of grant, and another 25% each six months thereafter. In 2006, stock option grants to executive officers represented approximately 45% of the total stock option grants to all employees.

Our executive officers do not receive any material incremental benefits that are not otherwise available to all of our employees. Our health and dental insurance plans are the same for all employees.

Effective April 1, 2006, Daniel J. Kunz signed an employment agreement that increases the amount of time devoted to the business of the company to 140 hours per month at a compensation of $132,000 annually. Mr. Kunz is entitled to receive performance bonuses and incentive stock options as determined by the Company’s board of directors, benefits (including for immediate family) as are or may become available to other employees, and vacation. The Company will also provide reasonable life insurance and accidental death coverage with the proceeds payable to Mr. Kunz’s estate or specified family member. The employment agreement may be terminated by the company without notice, payment in lieu of notice, severance or other sums for causes which include failure to perform in a competent and professional manner, appropriation of corporate opportunities or failure to disclose a conflict of interest, conviction which has become final for an indictable offense, fraud, dishonesty, refusal to follow reasonable and lawful direction of the company, breach of fiduciary duty, and a declaration of bankruptcy by or against Mr. Kunz. Otherwise, the Company may terminate the agreement upon one month written notice. The agreement includes covenants by Mr. Kunz of confidentiality and non-competition, and provides for equitable relief in the event of breach. In the case of a change of control, Mr. Kunz can elect to receive compensation of $250,000 no later than five working days after the effective date of the change of control. A copy of the employment agreement is included as Exhibit 10.15 in Part IV of this report.

Douglas J. Glaspey, Chief Operating Officer, signed an employment agreement on April 1, 2006, that will remain in effect until December 31, 2008, which provides for an annual salary of $108,000. Mr. Glaspey is entitled to receive

The employment agreement may be terminated by the company without notice, payment in lieu of notice, severance or other sums for causes which include failure to perform in a competent and professional manner. In the event of early termination due to failure to comply with the agreement, the employee would be entitled to compensation earned through the date of termination. A copy of the employment agreement is included as Exhibit 10.17 in Part IV of this report.

Kerry D. Hawkley, Chief Financial Officer, signed an employment agreement on April 1, 2006, that will remain in effect until December 31, 2008, which provides for an annual salary of $96,000. Mr. Hawkley is entitled to receive performance bonuses and incentive stock options as determined by the Company’s board of directors, benefits (including for immediate family) as are or may become available to other employees, and vacation. The employment agreement may be terminated by the company without notice, payment in lieu of notice, severance or other sums for causes which include failure to perform in a competent and professional manner. In the event of early termination due to failure comply with the agreement; the employee would be entitled to compensation earned through the date of termination. A copy of the employment agreement is included as Exhibit 10.16 in Part IV of this report.

U.S. Geothermal and their Board of Directors have previously provided additional incentive to our United States (“U.S.A.”) officers, directors, employees and consultants by offering stock options at a discount off market price as allowed by the TSX Venture exchange. The U.S.A. legislature and the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) have issued regulations to dissuade companies from granting these discounted stock options. Through the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and the Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, discounted stock options have now been classified as deferred compensation in which the “discount” is taxable at the date of vesting, instead of upon the date of exercise. They have also dictated that a 20% penalty on all discounts is to be paid at date of vesting. These new rules have been retroactively applied to all options vesting after January 1, 2005.

Since U.S. Geothermal stock options vest 25% on date of grant and 25% every six months thereafter, option holders would be subject to amending tax returns for prior years and paying tax and penalty on the value of the discount. These amendments and payments would be required whether or not the option holder exercises the options. The IRS is allowing option holders until December 31, 2007 to rectify the situation by allowing them to reprice the existing options to the market price on the date of option grant. As of March 31, 2007, the majority of our U.S.A. option holders have repriced their options to the market price on the date of grant. An adjustment to the fair market value of the repriced options was included in the stock compensation accrual for March 2007.

GTH did not award any shares, units or rights to any executive officer under a Long-Term Incentive Plan during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2005, 2006, and 2007.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of U.S. Geothermal Inc. (a development stage company) as of March 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended and for the period from February 26, 2002 (inception) through March 31, 2007. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

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. 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 U.S. Geothermal Inc. as of March 31, 2007 and 2006 and the results of its operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended and for the period from February 26, 2002 (inception) through March 31, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Stockholders of
U.S. Geothermal Inc.
(A development stage company)

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, cash flows, and stockholders’ equity of U.S. Geothermal Inc. (a development stage company) and its subsidiaries for the year then ended March 31, 2005 and for the cumulative period from February 26, 2002 (date of inception) to March 31, 2005. 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 audit.

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 an audit to obtain reasonable assurance 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods indicated in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectives of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses since inception, has not attained profitable operations and is dependent upon obtaining adequate financing to fulfil its development activities. These factors raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

U.S. GEOTHERMAL INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2007
(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, 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 has been in the development stage since its formation and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. GEO - Idaho operates for the purpose of acquiring geothermal properties and entered into an agreement with Vulcan Power Company (“Vulcan”) of Bend, Oregon, U.S.A., pursuant to which it acquired a 100% interest in the Raft River Geothermal Property located in Cassia County, Idaho, U.S.A. (Note 3).

Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company consolidates more-than-50% owned subsidiaries that it controls 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. The accounts of the following companies are consolidated in these financial statements:

 
U.S. Geothermal Inc. (incorporated in the State of Delaware);
 
 
 
U.S. Geothermal Inc. (incorporated in the State of Idaho);
 
 
 
U.S. Cobalt Inc. (incorporated in the State of Colorado);
     
 
U.S. Geothermal Services, LLC (incorporated in the State of Delaware).

All Company transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

Raft River Energy I LLC was consolidated through July 2006, after which the entity is recorded under the equity method. See Consolidation of Variable Interest Entity in Note 2 for further discussion.

Reclassification

Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. This reclassification has resulted in no changes to the Company’s accumulated deficit or net losses presented.

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 financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

F- 12


Development Stage Company

Pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 7, “Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises” (SFAS 7), the Company is considered to be a development stage enterprise since its planned principal operations have not commenced. The various entities that comprised the Company prior to February 26, 2002 were not engaged in operations directly related to the development of geothermal power plants. After that time, the Company began its current and primary development activities, and accordingly, accounted for the accumulated deficit separately from the prior operations. The statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows present the accumulated activities from the inception of the current operating activities to present. This presentation will continue until the Company begins operations.

Use of 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.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all unrestricted cash, short term deposits, and other investments with 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 Notes 5 and 9. 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. All investments held by the Company are highly liquid, available on demand.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents consisted of commercial bank deposits, a money market account, and petty cash. The money market funds totaled $12,081,369, and are not subject to deposit insurance. Cash deposits are held in a commercial bank in Boise, Idaho, and in a commercial bank in Vancouver, British Columbia. The accounts in Idaho are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $100,000. The Canadian dollar accounts in British Columbia are guaranteed by the Canadian Deposit Insurance Corporation (CIDC) up to $100,000 Canadian (approximately $86,000 in U.S. dollars at March 31, 2007). At March 31, 2007, the Company exceeded the FDIC insured amount by approximately $53,800 and did not exceed the CIDC insured amount.

Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities

The Company has a significant interest in a Raft River Energy I, LLC (RREI), which has been determined to be a variable interest entity as defined by FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (FIN 46(R)). RREI’s purpose is to hold the financial interests of the first phase of the Raft River project for the construction of a 10 megawatt geothermal power plant. As described below, the Company’s interest changed during the current fiscal period from primary beneficiary to a significant interest.

RREI resulted from agreements signed August 9, 2006, between U.S. Geothermal Inc. 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, U.S. Geothermal sold 50% of its ownership in Raft River Energy to Raft River Holdings. As a result of the agreements, U.S. Geothermal is required to contribute approximately $6,400,000 in cash and property, and Raft River Holdings is required to contribute $34,000,000 to Raft River Energy.

F- 13


As of March 31, 2007, U.S. Geothermal Inc. has contributed $6,363,714 in cash and property to the project, while Raft River Holdings has contributed $23,458,100. As a result, Raft River Holdings has been designated the primary beneficiary.

For periods prior to August 2006, U.S. Geothermal was the 100% owner of RREI and consolidated the loss of $30,968. For the period August 2006 to March 2007, U.S. Geothermal recorded RREI under the equity method of accounting for investments in subsidiaries based on the capital contribution ratio at March 31, 2007 (loss of $102,336).

RREI’s financial information is summarized as follows:

As of November 24, 2006:      
       Total current assets $  3,417,793  
       Property and equipment   18,618,764  
Total assets $  22,036,557  
       
       Total current liabilities $  3,360,052  
       Members’ equity   18,676,505  
                 Total liabilities and equity $  22,036,557  
       
From inception on August 18, 2005 to      
       November 24, 2006:      
November 24, 2006:      
       Operating revenues $  0  
       Operating loss   (245,879 )
       Net loss   (237,309 )

Property, Plant and Equipment

Costs of acquisition of geothermal properties are capitalized on an area-of-interest basis. Geothermal properties include all direct costs for the acquisition of land rights, water rights and mineral rights. Amortization of these costs will be on a unit-of-production basis, based on estimated proven geothermal reserves should such reserves be found. If an area of interest is abandoned, the costs thereof are charged to income in the year of abandonment. With the inherent uncertainty of calculating the units of production for a renewable resource, revisions to the estimates and the subsequent field performance of the resource would cause the life of the resource to differ significantly from the estimated units of production. A large percentage increase or decrease in the estimated reserves would decrease or increase the depreciation, depletion or amortization of capital costs proportionately.

The Company expenses all costs related to the development of geothermal reserves prior to the establishment of proven and probable reserves.

Depreciation will be based upon the estimated useful life of the asset. For assets directly related to revenue production defined by a specific contract, the estimated useful lives will not exceed the life of the contract. Depletion on wells and other assets directly involved in the extraction of the natural resources will be based upon the total estimated capacity on a unit of production basis. Units will be defined as gallons of geothermal water, processed through the plant, used directly in the production of revenues.

Other equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation of other equipment is calculated on a straight-line basis at an annual rate of 30%.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (SFAS 144) establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale including discontinued operations. SFAS 144 requires that these long-lived assets be measured at the lower of the carrying

F- 14


amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or discontinued operations. The Company has adopted SFAS 144 and 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. As expected for the initial stages of the Company’s operations, circumstances have not warranted the recognition of losses due to the impairment of long-lived assets.

Asset Retirement Obligations

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations,” requires legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets to be recognized at their fair value at the time the obligations are incurred. Upon initial recognition of a liability, that cost should be capitalized as part of the related long-lived asset and allocated to expense over the useful life of the asset. The Company has previously adopted this statement, with no impact to the Company’s financial statements.

Stock Options Granted to Employees and Non-employees

On April 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS 123(R)), which requires 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.

Under SFAS 123(R), the Company has elected to use the modified prospective transition method, and accordingly, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for periods prior to adoption of SFAS 123(R) have not been restated to reflect, and do not include the impact of adopting.

For non-employee stock based compensation, the Company has adopted EITF Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services” and EITF Issue No. 00-18, “Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees.” Non-employee stock options have been granted, at the Board of Director’s discretion, to select vendors as a bonus 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.

Pursuant to the requirements to SFAS 123(R), the Company made certain reclassifications to its consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2006, to reflect the stock compensation liability that resulted from the issuance of stock options denominated in a foreign currency. The reclassification from shareholder equity to liabilities amounted to $1,707,548 at March 31, 2006. We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No.123(R), Share-Based Payment. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this statement, 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, including estimating expected dividends. 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.

Earnings Per Share

The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 128 “Earnings per Share” (SFAS 128), 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

F- 15


stock equivalents outstanding at March 31, 2007 and 2006, they were not included in the calculation of earnings per share because their inclusion would have been considered anti-dilutive.

Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, 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.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Transactions in foreign currency are converted into U.S. dollars using the current method as follows:

 
Monetary items at the rate prevailing at the balance sheet date;
 
 
 
Non-monetary items at the historical exchange rate;
 
 
 
Revenue and expenses at the average rate in effect during the applicable accounting period.

Adjustments arising from the translation of the foreign currency amounts are included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

Foreign Operations

The accompanying balance sheet contains certain recorded Company assets (principally cash) in a foreign country (Canada). Although Canada is considered economically stable, it is always possible that unanticipated events in foreign countries could disrupt the Company’s operations.

Provision for Taxes

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (SFAS 109). 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 SFAS 109 to allow recognition of such an asset.

At March 31, 2007, the Company had net deferred tax assets calculated at an expected rate of 34% of approximately $2,177,500 (March 31, 2006 - $1,568,000) principally arising from net operating loss carry forwards and stock compensation. 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, 2007. The significant components of the deferred tax asset at March 31, 2007 and March 31, 2006 were as follows:

F- 16



    March 31, 2007     March 31, 2006  
             
Net operating loss carry forward $  6,404,500   $  4,612,100  
             
Deferred tax asset $  2,177,500   $  1,568,000  
Deferred tax asset valuation allowance   (2,177,500 )   (1,568,000 )
Net deferred tax asset $  -   $  -  

At March 31, 2007, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $6,404,500 ($4,612,100 in March 31, 2006), which expire in the years 2023 through 2027. The change in the allowance account from March 31, 2006 to March 31, 2007 was $609,500.

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.

Going Concern

Based on the Company’s projected spending over the next 12 months, the $20,134,260 cash received from the private placement completed April 3, 2006, and the private placement completed in June 2007 (details provided in footnote 10), the Company’s auditors have removed the going concern qualification from the Company’s financial statements. Management believes that sufficient funding will be available to meet its business objectives, including anticipated cash needs for working capital, and financing for construction of the phase one power plant. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred an accumulated deficit of $7,025,115 and has no revenue from operations. In the ordinary course of constructing a power plant facility of this size and complexity, cost overruns and contract delays can significantly affect the economics of the project. Failure to achieve commercial operations of the power plant prior to December 31, 2008 would jeopardize the production tax credit, and could materially affect the ability of U.S. Geothermal to operate as a going concern.

Accounting Pronouncements - Recent

The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (SFAS 159). This statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. This Statement is expected to expand the use of fair value measurement, which is consistent with the Board’s long-term measurement objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This Statement is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007, although early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this statement on the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company. Management has not elected early adoption of this statement.

Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans

In September, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans – an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87,88,106, and 132(R)” (SFAS No. 158”). This statement requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded statues of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income of a business entity or changes in unrestricted net assets of a not for profit organization. This statement also requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. The adoption of this statement had no immediate material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Fair Value Measurements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (SFAS 157). This statement defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosure related to the use of fair value measures in financial statements. The statement is to be effective for financial statements issued in 2008; however, earlier application is encouraged. The Company is currently evaluating the timing of adoption and the impact that adoption might have on its financial position or results of operations.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48). The interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109. Specifically, the pronouncement prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on the related derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting for interim periods, disclosure and transition of uncertain tax positions. The interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company does not expect the adoption of FIN 48 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows or financial statement disclosures.

NOTE 3 - REVERSE TAKE-OVER

Effective December 19, 2003, GTH acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding voting shares of GEO - Idaho by issuing 6,939,992 common shares and 2,420,217 share purchase warrants, of which 2,150,309 common shares and no share purchase warrants were held in escrow as at December 31, 2005 (as of March 31, 2005, 4,243,325 common shares and 1,946,937 share purchase warrants were held in escrow). Each share purchase warrant entitled the holder to purchase one additional common share at a price of $0.75 per share until December 19, 2005. As of December 31, 2005, the 2,420,217 stock purchase warrants noted above expired without exercise. Since the transaction resulted in the former shareholders of GEO - Idaho owning the majority of the issued shares of GTH, the transaction, which is referred to as a “reverse take-over”, has been treated for accounting purposes as an acquisition by GEO - Idaho of the net assets and liabilities of GTH. Under this purchase method of accounting, the results of operations of GTH are included in these financial statements from December 19, 2003. GEO - Idaho is deemed to be the purchaser for accounting purposes. Accordingly, its net assets are included in the balance sheet at their previously recorded values.

The Company determined that the share purchase warrants issued as part of the aforementioned transaction have a fair value of $629,256 as determined by using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the assumptions as stated in Note 6. The amount is considered to be additional consideration given to the former GEO - Idaho shareholders and, as such, was allocated, along with the net liabilities assumed of GTH, to accumulated deficit. The acquisition is summarized as follows:

Current assets (including cash of $5,798) $  11,616  
Current liabilities   (419,782 )
Net liabilities assumed $  (408,166 )

The net liabilities assumed have been charged to accumulated deficit.

NOTE 4 - PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

During the year ended March 31, 2007, the Company incurred an additional $12,084,849 in construction costs for Raft River Project phase I. These costs were primarily for the drilling of additional wells and the construction of the power plant and related infrastructure. Raft River Holdings reimbursed the Company for $4,917,100 in amounts associated with Raft River Energy phase I. As described in note 2, property (both geothermal property and construction in process) was transferred to Raft River Energy, in exchange Company’s interest in the subsidiary that

F- 18


amounted to $6,363,714. In addition to construction activities, the Company acquired 1,083 acres of surface rights in exchange for cash payments of $1,281,006 and 631 acre feet per annum in water rights for $138,820. Legal fees for $87,121 were incurred for the acquisition of mineral rights. The Company acquired access to 5,409 acres of surface, mineral and geothermal rights through a lease payment of $15,000. Vehicles, furniture and computer equipment utilized by the corporate administrative and the Raft River site offices were purchased for $102,800.

For the year ended March 31, 2006, the Company acquired a 100% interest in the Raft River Geothermal Property by making cash payments totaling $250,000 in 2003, $225,000 in 2004 and the final installment of $125,000 in 2005. The Company has also completed the requisite work program. In addition, the Company has paid $57,728 to acquire two purchase options on 1,083 acres of surface and water rights, and paid $949,036 to initiate construction of the Raft River Project.

NOTE 5 - CAPITAL STOCK

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 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.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, the Company issued 62,500 common shares upon the exercise of 12,500 stock options, plus 50,000 broker compensation options at an exercise price of $1.00 Cdn($0.83 U.S.).

During the quarter ended December 31, 2006, the Company issued 72,741 shares to employees in satisfaction of employment agreements at an average price of $0.90, and 23,573 shares previously held in escrow were cancelled and returned to treasury.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2006, the Company issued 395,000 common shares upon the exercise of 280,000 stock purchase warrants at an exercise price of $0.85 Cdn($0.73 -$0.75 U.S.), the exercise of 15,000 stock purchase warrants at an exercise price of $1.25 Cdn($0.86 U.S.), and the exercise of 100,000 options at an exercise price of $0.60 Cdn($0.54 U.S.).

During the quarter ended June 30, 2006, the Company issued 40,000 common shares upon the exercise of 40,000 options at an exercise price of $0.60 Cdn($0.53 U.S.).

On April 3, 2006, the Company completed a private placement of 25,000,000 common shares at a price of $1.00 Cdn($0.86 U.S. as of April 3, 2006). Proceeds, net of financing fees, totaled $20,134,260. Of the net proceeds, $172,370 had been received in the Company’s bank accounts prior to year end. Since the subscription forms reflected a March 30, 2006 date, and the remainder of the cash of $19,961,890 was on deposit with Dundee Securities Corporation, the private placement was recorded as “Private placement proceeds receivable” and as “Capital Stock Issuable” in the financial statements at March 31, 2006.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2006, the Company issued 691,304 common shares upon the exercise of 378,370 options at an exercise price of $0.60 Cdn($0.51 U.S.), the exercise of 192,934 stock purchase warrants at an exercise price of $0.75 U.S., and 120,000 common shares as a signing bonus as part of an employment agreement at a deemed price of $0.72 Cdn($0.61 U.S.).

The escrow shares and warrants were held in escrow pursuant to standard requirements of the TSX Venture Exchange, which required that escrow conditions be placed upon the shares and share purchase warrants issued in conjunction with the acquisition of GEO - Idaho and the concurrently completed private placement, noted above. Shares were released from escrow at six month intervals, with the last release from escrow completed December 19, 2006. All stock purchase warrants previously held in escrow expired as of December 31, 2005, without exercise.

NOTE 6 - STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

The Company’s stock option plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options for up to 4,381,051 common shares to employees, consultants, officers and directors of the Company. All terms and conditions of the options are the same for external parties as well as internal employees and directors. 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 no conditions precedent to vesting. Since the plan has been administered by the Company’s Vancouver office and Pacific Corporate Trust Company, the Company has issued stock options with an exercise price stated in Canadian dollars per share.

F- 20


U.S. Geothermal and their Board of Directors have previously provided additional incentive to our United States (“U.S.A.”) employees and consultants by offering stock options at a discount off market price as allowed by the TSX Venture exchange. The U.S.A. legislature and the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) are now issuing regulations to dissuade companies from granting these discounted stock options. Through the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and the Internal Revenue Code Section 409A, discounted stock options have now been classified as deferred compensation in which the “discount” is taxable at the date of vesting, instead of upon the date of exercise. They have also dictated that a 20% penalty on all discounts is to be paid at date of vesting. These new rules have been retroactively applied to all options vesting after January 1, 2005.

Since U.S. Geothermal stock options vest 25% on date of grant and 25% every six months thereafter, option holders would be subject to amending tax returns for prior years and paying tax and penalty on the value of the discount. These amendment and payments would be required whether or not the option holder exercises the options. The IRS is allowing option holders until December 31, 2007 to rectify the situation by allowing them to reprice the existing options to the market price on the date of option grant. As of March 31, 2007, the majority of our U.S.A. option holders have repriced their options to the market price on the date of grant. An adjustment to the fair market value of the repriced options was included in the stock compensation accrual for March 2007.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, the Company granted 235,000 stock options to consultants and employees exercisable at a price of $1.40 Cdn($1.24 U.S.) until January 22, 2012.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2006, the Company granted 170,000 stock options to consultants and employees exercisable at a price of $1.00 Cdn($0.89 U.S.) until July 31, 2011.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2006, the Company granted 1,763,000 stock options to consultants, employees, directors and officers exercisable at prices ranging from $0.85 to $1.00 Cdn($0.77 to $0.90 U.S.) until April 12, 2011.

During the year ended March 31, 2006, the Company granted 50,000 stock options to a consultant exercisable at a price of $0.72 Cdn($0.58 U.S.).

During the year ended March 31, 2005, the Company granted 560,000 stock options to consultants, directors and officers exercisable at prices ranging from $0.72 to $0.90 Cdn($0.58 to $0.72 U.S.).

During the year ended March 31, 2004, the Company granted 1,745,000 stock options to consultants, directors and officers exercisable at a price of $0.60 Cdn($0.48 U.S.).

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 exercises and employee termination 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 weighted average fair value of options granted was $0.89 per share. The assumptions used to calculate the fair value are as follows:

  Fiscal Years Ended
  2007 2006 2005
       
Dividend yield 0 0 0
Expected volatility 82-149% 140% 144-155%
Risk free interest rate 3.94-4.20% 3.25% 2.83-3.18%
Expected life (years) 3.36 3.00 3.06

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.

That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years. The total fair value of shares vested during the years ended March 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, was $992,778, $166,773, and $295,540, respectively.

NOTE 8 - 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 (“GAAP”). The material difference in respect to these financial statements between U.S. 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.) are recorded as a capital asset. Under U.S. GAAP, these amounts are expensed.

Power Sales Agreement

The Company has signed a 10 megawatt power purchase agreement with Idaho Power Company for sale of power generated from its planned phase one power plant. Sale of power generated from phase two power plants are currently under discussion. The Company has also signed a transmission agreement with Bonneville Power Administration for transmission of the electricity from this plant to Idaho Power, and from the phase two plants to other purchasers. These agreements are all contingent upon successful financing and construction of the power plant at Raft River.

Construction Contract

On December 5, 2005, the Company signed a contract (the “Ormat EPC Agreement”) with Ormat Nevada, Inc. (Ormat) for Ormat to construct a 13 megawatt geothermal power plant at Raft River, Idaho for a lump sum price of $20,200,000 (exclusive of taxes). The Company expects the output of the plant will be used to meet power delivery requirements of the Company’s agreements with Idaho Power Company. As part of the Ormat EPC Agreement, as amended, the Company has established a $1,000,000 letter of credit with Wells Fargo Bank to collateralize amounts committed by Ormat, but not paid by the Company. The amount will increase monthly until a maximum letter of credit amount of $10,252,000 is reached. A $5,363,400 money market fund is pledged as collateral backing the letter of credit as of March 31, 2007, and is reported as restricted cash.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

Article XII of our Certificate of Incorporation provides for indemnification of officers and directors except (i) for any breach of a director’s duty of loyalty to the company or its stakeholders (ii) acts and omission that are not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the general corporate law of the State of Delaware, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived any improper benefit.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to our directors, officers or controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

During the past three fiscal years, we issued and sold the securities described below to certain individual and institutional investors, including certain of our directors, officers and key employees, in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, Rule 506 of Regulation D and Regulation S. Each purchaser represented that he, she or it was purchasing the shares for investment and each such person had sufficient knowledge and experience to evaluate the merits and risks of such investment.

1.      On September 17, 2004, GTH sold 4,000,001 shares of common stock and 4,000,001 warrants to purchase shares of its common stock in a private offering under Regulation S, at a price of Cdn$0.85 per unit (a unit being one share and one warrant), for gross proceeds of Cdn$3,400,000. The units consist of one share and a warrant which entitles the holder to purchase one share at an exercise price of Cdn$1.25 until September 17, 2006. GTH may accelerate the exercise period of the warrants on twenty days notice if the closing price of the company’s common shares on a public market exceeds Cdn$1.65 for twenty consecutive business days. The value of each warrant (using the Black-Scholes model) was $0.30, and the aggregate value of the 4,000,001 warrants was $1,190,697. The securities were issued in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act in reliance on and compliance with Regulation S. Each of such persons represented to the company that he purchased the securities for his own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution of the securities. The certificates for the securities bear a restrictive legend and stop transfer instructions have been placed against the transfer of the securities. Dundee Securities Corporation of Toronto, Canada, was paid a cash fee of Cdn$238,000, and issued a “compensation option” to acquire 280,000 units at an exercise price per unit of Cdn$0.85, until September 17, 2006, and valued at $133,341 ($0.30 per warrant, using the Black-Scholes model). The warrants included in Dundee’s units are also subject to acceleration, whether or not the compensation option has been exercised. An additional Cdn$31,977.45 was incurred in legal expenses relating to the offering, as well as Cdn$18,190 in fees to the TSX Venture Exchange which together with the Cdn$238,000 cash paid to Dundee made up the $225,131 cash component of issuance costs. With the $131,341 which was the fair value of the Dundee compensation option, the total charged to share issue costs was $358,472.

Item 17. Undertakings.

          (a)      The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

          (1)      To file, during any period in which offers or sales of securities are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:

          (i)      Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

          (ii)     Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement; and notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectuses filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in the volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.

II- 7


          (iii)    To include any material information with respect to the “Plan of Distribution” not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

          (2)      That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

          (3)      To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

          (4)      That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

          (5)      The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

          (b)      Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the provisions described herein, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
