Independent Auditors’ Report


To the Shareholders of:
BIT-X FINANCIAL CORPORATION
(formerly “Rainchief Energy Inc.”)

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Bit-X Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ deficiency, comprehensive loss, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Management's Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
 
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility
 
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion
 
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Bit-X Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries as at December 31, 2014 and 2013, and their financial performance and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, and 2012, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Emphasis of Matter – Going Concern
 
In forming our opinion, which is not qualified, we have considered the adequacy of the disclosures made in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements concerning the ability of Bit-X Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries to continue as a going concern. The company incurred a net loss of $234,144 during the year ended December 31, 2014, and as of that date, had accumulated losses of $3,789,794 since inception and a working capital deficiency of $529,951. These conditions, along with the other matters explained in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, indicate the existence of material uncertainties that raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include the adjustments that would result if Bit-X Financial Corporation and its subsidiaries were unable to continue as a going concern.

BIT-X FINANCIAL CORPORATION
(formerly “Rainchief Energy Inc.”)
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2014 and 2013
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

 
NOTE 1 – NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

The Company was incorporated on December 28, 2000, under the Company Act of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. On February 19, 2015 the Company changed its name from Rainchief Energy Inc. to Bit-X Financial Corporation. The Company will focus on licensing, developing, and branding a digital exchange trading platform and peer to peer electronic payment processing network that will allow users to buy and sell fiat currencies, alternative currencies and crypto-binary options in real time. Prior to 2015, the Company was engaged in identifying, financing, and developing oil and gas energy resource properties in North America (Note 6). Prior to 2012, the Company was engaged in the financing and development of photovoltaic solar energy projects in Europe.

The head office, principal address, and records office of the Company are located at 838 West Hastings, Suite 300, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 0A6.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards on the basis that the Company is a going concern and will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Several conditions as set out below cast uncertainties on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the financial support from its creditors, shareholders, and related parties, its ability to obtain financing for its development projects, and upon the attainment of future profitable operations.

The Company has not yet achieved profitable operations, has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations, and has been reliant on external financing of equity. As at December 31, 2014, the Company has accumulated losses of $3,789,794 since inception and a working capital deficiency of $529,951. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful with generating and maintaining profitable operations, or able to secure future debt or equity financing for its working capital and development activities.

These consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)
Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial instruments classified as available-for-sale that have been measured at fair value. Cost is the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for net assets.

b)
Statement of Compliance

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

These consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on April 30, 2015.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

c)
Basis of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. The following companies have been consolidated within these consolidated financial statements:

Entity
Country of Incorporation
Holding
Functional Currency
       
Bit-X Financial Corporation
Canada
Parent Company
Canadian Dollar
Jaydoc Capital Corp.
Canada
100%
Canadian Dollar
Rainchief Renewable-1 S.R.L.
Italy
100%
Canadian Dollar

The Company through its subsidiaries, Jaydoc Capital Corp. and Rainchief Renewable-1 S.R.L., was engaged in the development of photovoltaic solar energy projects in Europe until December 31, 2011. These companies are inactive.

d)
Foreign Currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is also the functional currency of the parent company. Each subsidiary determines its own functional currency (Note 2(c)) and items included in the financial statements of each subsidiary are measured using that functional currency.

 
i)
Transactions and Balances in Foreign Currencies

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the respective entity using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the re-measurement of monetary items at year-end exchange rates are recognized in profit or loss.

Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and are not retranslated. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rate at the date when fair value was determined.

 
ii)
Foreign Operations

On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date and their revenues and expenses are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. The exchange differences arising on the translation are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the currency translation reserve in equity. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of other comprehensive income relating to that particular foreign operation is recognized in earnings and recognized as part of the gain or loss on disposal.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

e)
Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognized to write off the cost of the property and equipment less their residual values over their useful lives using the declining balance method at 30% per annum for computer equipment and 20% for furniture and equipment, except in the year of acquisition when one-half of the rate is used. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.

An item of property and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.

f)
Oil and Gas Property

The Company follows the full cost method of accounting for oil and gas properties whereby all costs relating to the acquisition, exploration, and development of oil and gas reserves are capitalized on a property-by-property basis. Such costs include land acquisition costs, geological and geophysical costs, drilling and other costs related to exploration and development activities and do not necessarily reflect present or future values. Proceeds from the disposal of oil and gas properties are applied against the capitalized costs of the related property.
 
Upon commencement of production, capitalized costs are depleted using the unit-of-production method, based on estimated probable and proven oil and gas reserves determined by independent engineers.
 
The property was written off in 2014 (Note 6).
 
g)
Impairment of Non-Current Assets

The carrying amounts of non-current assets are reviewed for impairment whenever facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. If there are indicators of impairment, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of any impairment. Individual assets are grouped together as a cash generating unit for impairment assessment purposes at the lowest level at which there are identifiable cash flows that are independent from other group assets.

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss exists if the asset’s or cash generating unit’s carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount and is recorded as an expense immediately. In assessing the value in use, the estimated future cash flows are adjusted for the risks specific to the cash generating unit and are discounted to their present value with a discount rate that reflects the current market indicators.

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount to the extent that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized as income immediately.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

h)
Provision for Restoration and Rehabilitation

A provision for restoration and rehabilitation is recognized when there is a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of exploration and development activities undertaken, it is more likely than not that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount of the provision can be measured reliably. The estimated future obligation includes the cost of removing facilities, abandoning sites, and restoring the affected areas.

The provision for future restoration costs is the best estimate of the present value of the expenditure required to settle the restoration obligation at the reporting date. The estimated cost is capitalized into the cost of the related asset and amortized on the same basis as the related assets. The liability is increased over time to reflect an accretion to the amount ultimately payable on the date it is paid.

As at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has no material restoration and rehabilitation obligations.

i)
Share Capital

The Company records proceeds from share issuances, net of commissions and issuance costs. Shares issued for other than cash consideration are valued at the quoted price on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board in the United States based on the earliest of: (i) the date the shares are issued, and (ii) the date the agreement to issue the shares is reached.

j)
Share-Based Payments

The fair value method of accounting is used for share-based payment transactions. Under this method, the cost of stock options and other share-based payments is recorded based on the estimated fair value using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model at the grant date and charged to profit over the vesting period. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of equity instruments expected to vest.

Upon the exercise of stock options and other share-based payments, consideration received on the exercise of these equity instruments is recorded as share capital and the related share-based payment reserve is transferred to share capital. The fair value of unexercised equity instruments are transferred from reserve to retained earnings upon expiry.

k)
Loss per Share

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, as the issuance of shares on the exercise of stock options and share purchase warrants is anti-dilutive.

l)
Income Taxes

Tax expense recognized in profit or loss comprises the sum of deferred tax and current tax not recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

 
i)
Current Income Tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities comprise those claims from, or obligations to, fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting periods that are unpaid at the reporting date. Current tax is payable on taxable profit, which differs from profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements. Calculation of current tax is based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.

l)
Income Taxes (Continued)

 
ii)
Deferred Income Tax

Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated, without discounting, at tax rates that are expected to apply to their respective period of realization, provided they are enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full.

Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that they will be able to be utilized against future taxable income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only when the Company has a right and intention to offset current tax assets and liabilities from the same taxation authority.

Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized as a component of tax income or expense in profit or loss, except where they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the related deferred tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or equity, respectively.

m)
Financial Instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities classified at fair value through profit or loss) are added to, or deducted from, the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities classified at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.

Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured subsequently as described below. The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments.

 
i)
Financial Assets

For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition:

 
·
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss;
 
·
Loans and receivables;
 
·
Held-to-maturity investments; and
 
·
Available-for-sale financial assets.

The category determines subsequent measurement and whether any resulting income and expense is recognized in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income.

All financial assets except for those at fair value through profit or loss are subject to review for impairment at least at each reporting date. Financial assets are impaired when there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Different criteria to determine impairment are applied for each category of financial assets, which are described below.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

m)
Financial Instruments (Continued)

 
i)
Financial Assets (Continued)

 
·
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss – Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets that are either classified as held for trading or that meet certain conditions and are designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. All derivative financial instruments fall into this category, except for those designated and effective as hedging instruments. Assets in this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in profit or loss. The Company’s cash falls into this category of financial instruments.
 
 
·
Loans and receivables – Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial recognition, these are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any provision for impairment. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Company currently does not hold financial assets in this category.
 
 
·
Held-to-maturity investments – Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity, other than loans and receivables. Investments are classified as held-to-maturity if the Company has the intention and ability to hold them until maturity. The Company currently does not hold financial assets in this category.

Held-to-maturity investments are measured subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest method. If there is objective evidence that the investment is impaired as determined by reference to external credit ratings, then the financial asset is measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows. Any changes to the carrying amount of the investment, including impairment losses, are recognized in profit or loss.

 
·
Available-for-sale financial assets – Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated to this category or do not qualify for inclusion in any of the other categories of financial assets. The Company currently does not hold financial assets in this category.

Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value. Gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and reported within the available-for-sale reserve within equity, except for impairment losses and foreign exchange differences on monetary assets, which are recognized in profit or loss. When the asset is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from the equity reserve to profit or loss, and presented as a reclassification adjustment within other comprehensive income.

For financial assets measured at amortized cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, then the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.

In respect of available-for-sale financial assets, impairment losses previously recognized in profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the revaluation reserve.

Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and all substantial risks and rewards are transferred.

ii)
Financial Liabilities

For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, or other financial liabilities upon initial recognition.

 
·
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss – Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities that are either classified as held for trading or that meet certain conditions and are designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. Liabilities in this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in profit or loss. The Company’s bank indebtedness falls into this category of financial instruments.

 
·
Other financial liabilities – Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognized in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the effective interest rate method amortization process. The Company’s trade and other payables and promissory notes payable fall into this category of financial instruments.

A financial liability is derecognized when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expired.

n)
Comparative Figures

Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the financial statement presentation adopted for the current year. These reclassifications have no effect on the consolidated net comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

In the application of the Company’s accounting policies which are described in Note 2, management is required to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods, if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Significant judgments, estimates, and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are described below.

a)
Deferred Tax Assets

Deferred tax assets, including those arising from unutilized tax losses, require management to assess the likelihood that the Company will generate sufficient taxable earnings in future periods in order to utilize recognized deferred tax assets. Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits depend on management’s estimates of future cash flows. In addition, future changes in tax laws could limit the ability of the Company to obtain tax deductions in future periods. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize the net deferred tax assets recorded at the reporting date could be impacted.

b)
Oil and Gas Reserves and Resources

Measurements of depletion, depreciation, impairment, and rehabilitation and restoration obligations are determined in part based on the Company’s estimate of oil and gas reserves and resources. The estimation of reserves and resources is an inherently complex process and involves the exercise of professional judgment.

Oil and gas reserves and resources estimates are based on a range of geological, technical and economic factors, including projected future rates of production, projected future commodity prices, engineering data, and the timing and amount of future expenditures, all of which are subject to uncertainty. Changes in market and regulatory conditions and assumptions can materially impact the estimation of net reserves.

c)
Provision for Restoration and Rehabilitation

The Company recognizes a provision for future abandonment activities in the financial statements equal to the net present value of the estimated future expenditures required to settle the estimated future obligation at the statement of financial position date. The measurement of the restoration and rehabilitation obligation involves the use of estimates and assumptions including the discount rate, the expected timing of future expenditures, and the amount of future abandonment costs. The estimates were made by management and external consultants considering current costs, technology, and enacted legislation. As a result, there could be significant adjustments to the provisions established which would affect future financial results.
 
NOTE 4 – ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE

The accounting standard, amendment, and interpretation listed below is issued but not yet effective up to the date of issuance of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company intends to adopt the following standard and interpretation, if applicable, when it becomes effective. The Company has not yet determined the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments

IFRS 9, as issued, reflects the first phase of the IASB’s work on the replacement of International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 39 and applies to the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities, as defined in IAS 39. The standard was initially effective for annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2013, but Amendments to IFRS 9-Mandatory Effective Date of IFRS 9 and Transition Disclosures, issued in December 2011, moved the mandatory effective date to January 1, 2018.

NOTE 6 – OIL AND GAS PROPERTY

On February 10, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with Nueva Oil and Gas Corporation (“Nueva”) for a farm-in interest in certain oil and gas leases in Curry County, New Mexico, United States (the “Gulf Jensen Oil Prospect”). Nueva is an arm’s length private oil company based in Calgary, Canada.

Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company agreed to pay US$33,400 (CDN$34,140) upon execution of the agreement and undertook to fund 100% of the cost of an initial seismic program. In addition, the Company was granted an option to acquire a 90% working interest in the Gulf Jensen Oil Prospect which the Company exercised on April 4, 2012 and paid Nueva US$75,000 (CDN$73,913). The Company’s net revenue interest was 80.0% inclusive of the lessor royalties and the over-riding royalties.

Subsequent to December 31, 2014, management decided to no longer develop the property with Nueva and abandoned all oil and gas exploration activities. The Company does not foresee receiving any proceeds on the disposition of rights on the property, and the capitalized exploration and evaluation asset of $108,053 has been written-off in 2014.

In July 2013, the Supreme Court of British Columbia found in favour of the plaintiff and awarded damages, costs and interest. In December 2013, the Company paid the plaintiff $61,500 cash in final settlement of all claims.
 
NOTE 9 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES

During 2013, the Company issued convertible promissory notes totaling $118,000. The notes are non-interest bearing, unsecured and mature on December 31, 2015.

During 2014, the Company issued convertible promissory notes totaling $127,024. The notes are non-interest bearing, unsecured, and mature on December 31, 2015, with the exception of one note ($14,796) which matures on December 31, 2016. The notes are convertible into common shares of the Company in whole or in part at the option of the holder upon terms to be determined by the Company either 10 days prior to repayment of the notes or the maturity date, whichever occurs first.

The notes become immediately payable should the Company complete financing in excess of US$5,000,000 prior to the maturity date and shall bear interest at 3% per annum compounded annually should the Company default on the notes.

During 2014, the Company did not make any repayments (2013 - $6,961) but settled $98,626 in promissory notes payable (2013 - $Nil) by issuing 28,000,000 common shares (see note 10(b)(viii)).

Unlimited number of common shares without par value.

b) 
Issued and Outstanding Common Shares

 
i)
On January 17, 2012, the Company completed a private placement of 1,330,000 units at US$0.03 per unit, raising gross proceeds of US$39,900 ($41,064). Each unit consists of one common share and one share purchase warrant exercisable into one common share at US$0.03 per share until December 31, 2013.

 
ii)
During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company issued a total of 2,200,000 common shares upon the exercise of warrants at an exercise price of US$0.02 per share for total gross proceeds of US$44,000 ($44,137).
 
 
iii)
On March 2, 2012, the Company repurchased 1,100,000 units at US$0.02 per unit for a total cost of US$22,000 ($22,097). These units were initially issued in a private placement completed in May 2010 at a subscription price of US$0.02 per unit for total gross proceeds of US$22,000 ($22,097). Each unit consisted of one common share and one warrant exercisable into one common share at US$0.02 per share until March 30, 2015. These units were returned to treasury and cancelled.

 
iv)
On March 21, 2012, the Company issued 200,000 common shares to the President of the Company and a person related to the President. The related parties purchased these shares in the Company in 2002; however, the share certificates evidencing the share subscription were not recorded by the share transfer agent as a result of a clerical oversight. Accordingly, the Directors of the Company authorized the issuance of share certificates to the related parties as evidence of their ownership of the shares and to accurately reflect the number of common shares outstanding.

 
v)
Effective April 3, 2013, the common shares of the Company were consolidated at the ratio of one new common share for every 50 old common shares. The Company issued 835 shares to round up fractional entitlements resulting from the consolidation. The basic loss per share calculations disclosed in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, has been adjusted to reflect the share consolidation.

 
vi)
In January 2013, the Company entered into a debt settlement agreement with a company controlled by a Director and Officer of the Company to settle outstanding accounts payable of $10,000. The Company agreed to issue 10,000,000 pre-April 3, 2013, share consolidation shares.

In April 2013, the Company entered into a debt settlement agreement with an arm’s length party to settle outstanding accounts payable of $54,486. The Company paid $15,000 in cash and issued 250,000 post-April 3, 2013, share consolidation shares with a fair value of $15,000. The Company recorded a gain of $24,486 on the settlement of this debt.

In September 2013, the Company entered into a debt settlement agreement with a company controlled by a Director and Officer of the Company to settle outstanding accounts payable of $50,000. The Company agreed to issue 50,000,000 post-April 3, 2013, post-share consolidation shares with a fair value of $100,000. The Company recorded a loss of $50,000 on the settlement of this debt.

 
vii)
On August 13, 2013, the Company completed a private placement of 1,200,000 shares at US$0.05 per share, raising gross proceeds of $60,000.

NOTE 14 – FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The Company is exposed to various risks in relation to financial instruments. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities by category are summarized in Note 2(m). The Company’s risk management is coordinated in close co-operation with the board of directors and focuses on actively securing the Company’s short to medium-term cash flows and raising finances for the Company’s capital expenditure program. The Company does not actively engage in the trading of financial assets for speculative purposes.

The most significant financial risks to which the Company is exposed are described below.

a)
Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company is dependent upon the availability of credit from its suppliers and its ability to generate sufficient funds from equity and debt financing to meet current and future obligations. The Company has a working capital deficiency of $529,951 as at December 31, 2014. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.

b)
Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.

c)
Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counter party’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. The Company is in the exploration and development stage and has not yet commenced commercial production or sales. Therefore, the Company is not exposed to significant credit risk.

NOTE 14 – FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)

d)
Commodity Price Risk

Commodity price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in commodity prices. The ability of the Company to develop its oil and gas properties and the future profitability of the Company are directly related to the market price of oil. The Company has not hedged any of its future sales. The Company’s input costs are also affected by the price of fuel. The Company closely monitors commodity prices to determine the appropriate course of action.

e)
Foreign Exchange Risk
 
Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk to the extent it incurs operating costs in foreign currencies including the U.S. Dollar. The Company does not hedge its exposure to fluctuations in the related foreign exchange rates.

f)
Fair Values

The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining fair value measurements:

 
Leve l:
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 
Leve 2:
Other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly.

 
Leve 3:
Techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.

The level within which the financial asset or liability is classified is determined based on the lowest level of significant input to the fair value measurement. The Company’s financial instruments were measured at fair value use Level 1 valuation technique during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The carrying values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair values.
 
NOTE 15 – CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Company’s objective for managing its capital structure is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to ensure it has the financial capacity, liquidity and flexibility to fund its on-going operations and capital expenditures including investment in resource properties it has or may acquire.

The Company manages its share capital as capital, which as at December 31, 2014, amounted to $3,241,848. At this time, the Company’s access to the debt market is limited and it relies on equity issuances and the support of shareholders to fund its investments in capital assets and development of oil and gas properties. The Company monitors capital to maintain a sufficient working capital position to fund annualized administrative expenses and capital investments.

The Company will issue shares and may from time to time adjust its capital spending to maintain or adjust the capital structure. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain debt or equity capital in the case of operating cash deficits.

The Company’s share capital is not subject to external restrictions. The Company has not paid or declared any dividends since the date of incorporation, nor are any contemplated in the foreseeable future. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year ended December 31, 2014.
