Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but in the opinion of management of the Company, contain all adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position at June 30, 2015, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months and six months periods ended June 30, 2015. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 is derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements that have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, although management of the Company believes that the disclosures contained in these interim consolidated financial statements are adequate to make the information presented therein not misleading. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto contained in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K on April 15, 2015.

 

Going Concern

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant revenues since inception and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing, and the attainment of profitable operations.

 

At June 30, 2015, the Company had working capital deficit of $1,881,795, incurred a net loss applicable to New Western Energy Corporation common stockholders of $984,099 for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and used cash in operating activities of $667,357. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
