Note 1  Nature of Business and Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

 

Axiom Oil and Gas Corp. (“Axiom” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on February 13, 2007 under the name TC Power Management Corp. and originally formed for the purpose of providing consulting services to private and public entities seeking assessment, development and implementation of energy generating solutions. Effective September 1, 2010, the Company changed its business strategy to the business of acquiring and exploring mineral properties. Accordingly, as of September 1, 2010, the Company is considered to be an exploration stage company.  On May 10, 2011, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation changing its name to Axiom Gold and Silver Corporation.  In addition, the Amendment increased the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 300,000,000 and authorized the issuance of 10,000,000 preferred shares, the terms of which may be determined by the Board of Directors without the vote of shareholders. Effective November 1, 2010, the Company enacted a four-for-one (4:1) forward stock split. On August 27, 2013, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation and effective October 10, 2013 (i) changed its name to Axiom Oil and Gas Corp. to reflect its new business strategy of acquiring and exploring oil and gas properties; and  (ii) enacted a one-for-twenty-five (1:25) reverse stock split.  The Company remains an exploration stage company.  All share and per share data in these consolidated financial statements have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the stock splits.

 

On January 13, 2011, the Company entered into a material definitive agreement with Axiom Minerals de Mexico S.A. de C.V (“Axiom Mexico”) whereby through its wholly owned Mexican subsidiary, Axiom Acquisition Corp, acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Axiom Mexico, by the issuance of eighty thousand (80,000) of its common shares. The shares were issued to the shareholders of Axiom Mexico on a pro rata basis as to their ownership of Axiom Mexico. Axiom Acquisition Corp. merged with and into Axiom Mexico and the separate corporate existence of Axiom Acquisition Corp. ceased. Axiom Mexico, as the surviving corporation in the merger and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company continues its existence under its current name and continues to be governed by the laws of the state of Chihuahua, Mexico. This acquisition was accounted for as a basic business combination with the Company as the acquirer of Axiom Mexico.

 

Effective May 31, 2012, the Company sold all the outstanding shares of Axiom Mexico to an unrelated entity for total consideration of $100.  The Company recognized a gain of $160,681 on the sale.  As a result of the sale, effective that date, all the assets and liabilities of Axiom Mexico were no longer reported in the consolidated balance sheet.
